House Noises at Night That SounS

In old houses the boards and 1oists
forming the floors are often in some

are permanently bent with the traffic
of generations. Others are still under
going the warping process. 1t is easy
TO imagine a floor which is in perfect
~ ripe condition for the production of
ghostly sounds.
During the daytime the timbers get
bent with the weight of the various in
mates of the house walking to and fire.,
but the noise and hustle of the day
browns the starting and creaking
which goes on until the floor has recov-
cred its natural position. as it is bound
to do in time, wood being of an elastic
nature.
When. however the stiffness of night
comes on. these little intermittent
movements may become magnified into

Pump Anchors.

\ pump is queer sort of anchor,
but it has been found to be the best
kind of an anchor for a sandy bot.
tom. The anchor consists of a heavy
piece of metal with a hole down
through the center and tube from
this hole to the ship. so that water can
be pumped from the ship down through
the tube and out of the bottom of
the metal mass. When this anchor
drops TO the sandy bottom and the
pump is started it makes quicksand
of the material round it so that it
sinks in deep. When the pumping
stops the sand hardens and holds the
anchor. To raise the anchor it is nee
essary only TO start pumping again
and loosen the sand.-Saturday Even

objects in view when the column left
Vicksburg. Said he: II never had the
remoteat idea of going to Mobile, but
had purposely given out that idea TO
deceive the enemy and divert their at

expedition was to strike the roads IN

could take from the defense OF the
