The Firlinfoens.

At Brianza, In Lombardy, there
flourishes very curious sort Of band
all the members of which play the
same kind of instrument, known as
the "firlinfoens." This corresponds tt
what we know as 'panpipes" and Is
constructed Of reeds fastened side-by
side, the bass pipes being often several
feet long, while the others gradually
decrease In size.
The "firlinfoens," as the players are
called, after their instruments, are ms
a rule ignorant Of music and the!
learn their tunes by ear, often from a
photograph. 1t is said that the pan
pipe players experience all the sensa
lions Of intoxication after a march
due to the energetic blowing and the
constant wagging Of the head to and
fro. The music, although conveying
to the stranger ut first most curious
effect. Is said to be not unpleasant

Young conquerors.

Napoleon said that a man ages quick
" on battlef1elds. Speaking Of one OF
his generals, he said at Austerlitz that
Ordener was worn out, adding: Zone

for another six years, and then / shall
have to STOP"
Strangely enough" says Lord Rose
berry In 1.-The Last Phase" his judg-
ment was exactly verified. Six years
and q month from Austerlitz (Which
was fought on Dec. E.. 1805) would
have brought him to 1872, to the Rus
sian campaign, which, II he had OBJ
served his own rule, he would have
avoided"
When his STAR was eclipsed for
ever ut Waterloo he was but forty-six
years of age. but he had been a broken
man In body, and to an Increasing ex-
tent In mental power, long before.
Wellington fought his last battle at
forty-six, Ney at forty-flve, Nelson at
forty-seven. Alexander the Great was
only thirty-three when death ended his
career Of conquest. Hannibal was In
his forty-sixth year when he was final
ly defeated at Zama by Scipio.

There was some excitement ct Crescent
Park, Houlton, recently whom al the
cottagers and visitors rushed to the
shore to find out what was coming. The
noise sounded like the German airship
which many people CLAIMED passed over
the town few weeks ago. After looking
In the direction from which the noise was
coming all were thunder struck ut seeing
q queer looking object racing on the sur.
face of the lake. Interest was at its
height when It was discovered that 1t
was boat built by Leland Ludwig, son
Of L. o. Ludwig Of Houlton. The boat
was built on the plan Of catamaran with
air propellers. 1t sat but few inches
out of the water. Young Ludwig and
two friends were dressed 10 bathing suits

directions, making it impossible for one
to keep dry. The boat went like the
