Building Great WarshIp.

The new dreadnaught California, to
be completed in February, will meas.
ure 642 feet In length and for few
months will be the largest craft in the
world. England is building one 800
feet long, which will probably be
launched next summer.
The California is the first American
naval vessel to be built with its bow
curved aft below the water. The bows
OF the older boats curved forward be.
low the water, SO that they formed
rams, which were formidable weapons,
They are obsolete now because the
high power Of the modern naval guns
makes 1t impossible for war vessels to
come close enough together to ram
each other. .....=s-.
The armature Of the California IA
thicker than that Of any other boat IN
the world. She will have speed Of Ii
knots an hour and can carry 1886
men. The cost Of the boat alone Ia
100000, but her equipment Of guns
and ammunition will increase the
value to $15,000,000.

MAKES HOME IN JAIL
ECCENTRIC CHARACTER IN NlcH.
TIA, KANSAS.
In Return for His Board and Lodging
He Keeps the City Hall and It's
Environments Clean as
Whistle.

Fat is an lrlSnman. Even watson,
the dull-witted friend of the great
! Sherlock, would know that without
| being told. Also he is short, wearing
| chin whiskers and stepping lively. He
| is sixty-five. and Industrious. And he
| keeps the city hall and it's neighbor-
hood in Wichita, Kan, clean as q
whistle without having any stipulated
salary, relates-the New York Sun. All
Pat asks is chance to sleep inside
the city jail, and bite to eat and q
bit Of smoking tobacco. :.
From early morn until dewy eve,
with shovel, brush and broom, he op-
crates upon the pavements. The al
leys about the neighboring buildings
are always spic and span. Nobody
told Pat to do the job and nobody can
prevent him from doing it. He just
annexed it, and for this reason:
Pat Ryan used to live on a sand
boat on the Arkansas river. It was
the only home he had. But someone
thought 1t his duty to object to Pats
presence there and soon he was out
of domicile. He looked about and
then his Irish wit came to the rescue.
He hit upon scheme that worked out
all right. He simply walked into the
city hall and took up his residence in
the jail adjoining.
He was not put under arrest. He
merely began to stay nights at the
Jail and days he worked about the
building and the streets and alley
ways in the vicinity. The work he
does voluntarily for the city more
than pays for the food he consumes
and the bed under shelter which he
seems glad to get. His hobby is keep
ing things clean. No one has more
pride in shining brass rail than
Pat. II he were shoe artist he would
give so much time to a single pair
that he would prevent customers from
catching trains. "Why, he's more
conscientious by far than the chaps
who spend the money the citizens pay
in in taxes say observers who have
watched Pat. At first they made Jokes
ABOUT the hobo; now they rather adj
mire him.
One day the rain was coming down
in sheets. Pat grabbed a shovel and
hustled for the door.
Here" someone yelled, you don't
want to get into that tornado. You'll
catch your DEATH"
I'm going to let the water out OF
that alley" Pat called back, and out
he went.
He came back soaked, but there
wasn't any overflow bothering mer-
chants whose back doors opened
on the alley after that storm was
over.
After some weeks Pat has become
q sort of exhibit A in the city's col. |
lection Of curiosities.

One Of the most historic bells of thu

two Oakland junk dealers, William
ROsenthal and Lewis Rothenberg. who
have just arrived from South America
on the steamer Cuzco.. They have been
on buying trip in Peru and Chile fol
two years.
The bell is 1926 years old and hung
In the cathedral Of San Augustine at
Lima for more than two centuries. In
the revolution of 1896 the cathedral
was wrecked and the bell disappeared.
The two Oaklanders bought the
debris Of the cathedral and in excavat.
ing among the ruins found the bell. Il
was thought in Lima that 1t had been
stolen twenty years before.
Peruvians wished to buy the bell.
but the new owners thought it would
be worth more in this country and re.

much that is amusing. A few days
ago, while was riding through the
outskirts of Amesbury, an old lady

car. She was accompanied down to
the road from the house by a young
woman, possibly her daughter.
The elder woman put her foot on
the lower running board, grasped the
upright and was about to climb into
the car. when she turned to the young
woman and said:
Don't forget that gingerbread in
the oven, Liza. You know pa Just

And, Liza" she continued, when
you pick the eggs, bimeby, look out

to set! She'll pick ye II ye amt care

All aboard" again shouted the
conductor; but as the old lady pro
