Another Solomon.
TO me-

A horse dealer in a Scotch town
having hired horse to a solicitor,
the latter, either through bad usage
or some other cause, killed the
horse, when the dealer insisted upon
payment by bill if it were not con-
venient to pay cash. The lawyer
had no objection to grant bill, but
said it must be a long date. The
dealer told him to fix his own time,
when the man of law drew prom
issory note, making it payable on
the day Of judgment. An action
was raised, when the solicitor asked
the presiding judge to look at the
bill. Having done SO, the judge re-
piled:
"The bill is perfectly good, and
as this is the day of judgment | de-
cree that you pay tomorrow"

SARDINES BY THE MILLIONS.
A Glimpse Of the Great Industry a.
Carried on In France.

Carried on In France.
For the better part of a mile ev-
cry building in Douarnenez, France,
is canning factory or fish depot.
l was there in July, and it was the
height of the seasonal least 1t
seemed so to me, for the activity
was feverish. l could not get away
from the sight and the smell OF sar-
dimes.
An endless stream of fishing
smacks was coming up to the mole
and discharging cargoes, and an
endless row of sailors and boys and
girls was bringing the sardines in
baskets from the fishing smacks to
the depots, where they dumped them
into wooden troughs. The sardine
troughs are taken into the factory
and dumped into huge tanks of
brine. After thorough sailing the
heads are cut off. The fish are
cooked in oil and packed in cans Of
the fiat, rectangular kind familiar
to all the world.
The work in the factories is done
by Breton girls, who sing as they
handle the fish. They are remark
ably industrious and cheerful, and
enough of them are good looking to
make one linger longer in the work
room than he would for mere inter-
est in sardines.
But one does not get away from
sardines when he leaves the depots
and the factories, for between the
processes of sailing and cooking
they are dried, and this is generally
done out of doors. In every posi-
bic space on the quay not necessary
for passage there are wire baskets
in which the sardines stand, tails
in the air. Each basket contains
thousand. Each drying platform
has thousand baskets. There are
thousand drying platforms. There
are four dryings per day. There are
200 days Of good fishing.
| advise You not to multiply these
sums and dwell upon the total, and
| advise you not to think Of the
sardines in the boats, or in the bas-
kets, or in the troughs, or in the
vats, or dancing in the boiling oil.
If l leave a picture Of Douarnenez
sardines may it be rather Of the
pretty Breton peasant girls, with
their immaculate white lace head
gear, set off by dark hair and wind
redeemed cheeks, singing and laugh
ing at their work.-Herbert Adams
Gibbons in Harper's Magazine.

and it is only in exceptional cases OF
there being young ones to guard OF

hunters so close to them that they
charge when being tracked.
They charge with the same cough
ing roar that tiger does and come
at great speed close to the ground,
not bounding in the air, as they are
represented in pictures. Their ears
are pressed close to the head, CIV
ing them the comical appearance of
being without ears.-London Times.

SUBMARINE PERlSC0PES.
Only One Variety Shows the Entire
Horizon at Once.

There are many different styles
of periscopes. The simplest form is
vertical steel tube about twenty
feet long, with a rejecting prism at
the top and the lenses of telescope
at the bottom. 1t is, in fact, a sim
pie telescope whose line Of sight
"turns a corner" from horizontal to
vertical as it passes through the
prism. This instrument takes in
forty-fve degrees of the horizon, or
one-eighth the total field, at one
view. By turning the tube on its
axis the rest comes into sight sue
cessively.
This periscope gives very clear
images, but as it can be used with
only one eye at a time it does not
allow of distinguishing the differ
ent planes of vision very we'll and
tires the observers eye somewhat
quickly.
The so called combination peri
scope allows of vision with both
eyes, though it is not stereoscopic.
A real image is thrown on ground
glass screen, much like that Of a
photograph camera. 1t may be look
ed at with the two eyes, but no i'm
preston of depth and space is CIV
en-. The screen avoids excessive
fatigue, but it can be used only in
bright light. The size of the image
is often insufficient to bring out de-
tail. To obtain greater enlargement
without diminishing clearness too
much, magnifying lenses are some
times added.
The preceding periscopes do not
enable commander to take rapid
survey of the horizon. 1t takes five
to ten seconds to make a complete
circle. Again, the observer must
himself move around with the eye
piece. If the image is to remain
upright without moving the eye
piece it is necessary to use a COM
pensatory prism whose movement
makes up for that Of the eyepiece.
This is the principle of the pano-
ramic periscope, whose tube is fixed
and bears at its summit glass bulb
containing rejecting prism mount
ed OH base that may be turned
with a handle. There is compen-
sating prism that turns at half the
speed and keeps the image straight.
TO observe successfully all points
of the horizon it sulfices to turn the
crank without its being necessary
for either observer or eyepiece to
change place.
Nevertheless, however rapid the
operation, it does not enable the OBJ
server to see the whole horizon at
once. This is realized in the peri
scope with ring shaped eyepiece.
At the top Of the tube is a ring
shaped lens, which refracts toward
the base Of the tube rays that reach
it from all sides. A panoramic i'm
age is thus obtained that includes
all surrounding objects, though they
appear smaller and more distant
than with the naked eye. - Ex-

LAW:TO BE PERFECTED.
Manning and McLaurin Working
to Straighten Warehouse Law.

Columbia, September 25:-Gov-
ernor Manning and Warehouse Com
missioner McLaurin held lengthy
conference in the Governors office
few days ago, discussing the ad-
vantages of the State warehouse
system and the legislation necessary
to perfect the law governing it. No
statement was given out after the
conference, but it was learned that
both Governor Manning and Com
missioner McLaurin are agreed that
certain defects in the law should be
remedied and that there was prac-
tically complete agreement between
the Governor and the. Warehouse
Commissioner. as to what is best to
be done in perfecting this law that
means so much to the cotton pro-
ducing interests of South Carolina.
1t is likely that Governor Manning
and Commissioner McLaurin will
hold frequent conferences on this
matter before the Legislature meets
in January and the results of these
conferences will probably be en-
braced in a message from the Gov
ernor to the Legislature during the
early part of the next session.
The following editorial from the
Yorkville Enquirer of September 81
refers to this subject:
AS a result of conference be-
tween Governor Manning and Ware
house Commissioner John L McLau-
rim, it develops that Governor Man.
ming is not secretly hostile to the
State warehouse system, as was
legitimately deduced from published
remarks recently attributed to him.
1t is quite clear that if there should
be regulation providing that man.
ayers of State warehouses should be
absolutely disinterested parties,
neither owners of the warehouses
nor of the cotton stored therein,
there could easily develop a situa-
tion very different from that under
which all present progress has been
made. But from the reports of the
conference referred to it appears
that the Governor is most sincerely
solicitous of developing the ware
house system along lines that will
work to the interest of the producer
of the cotton first, and the public
generally, second. The conference
referred to, we understand. develop
ed that there was practically COM
plete agreement between Mr. Nc
Laurin and MIR Manning as to what
shall be done and the outlook is that
such recommendations as the Gov
ernor shall see proper to make to
the General Assembly with regard
to improving and strengthening the
warehouse system, will be made
only after complete agreement be-
tween the Governor and the Ware
house Commissioner
