JAPs TO BUILD SUBMARINES.

Rear Admiral kantaro Suzuki,
vice-minister of marine, who has
been interviewed by Japanese news
agency on lessons of the war, has
added his opinion to that of many
naval experts of other countries to
the effect that the usefulness of the
submarine was being so strongly
demonstrated in the present war that
the leading nations would devote
much time and money to this branch
of naval service. Rear Admiral Su-
zuki said that the japanese naval
authorities were already giving much
attention to the study Of submarines.
Heretofore it has been impossible to
build submarines in Japan, but some
OF the shipyards are now prepared to
undertake contracts for such craft,
and, in the opinion Of Rear Admiral
Suzuki, the Japanese yards would
be able to meet the needs of the
navy in this direction.

PRISONER PAID HIS BOARD
Case of United States Sailor, Under
Arrest, Reads Like Incident of
NapoIeonic Wars.

A not very frequent sight is that
Of a sailor in irons, delivered a pris-
oner to shore authorities for an Of
fense committed on the high seas.
Recently Benjamin R. Johnson was
thus handed over to New York au-
thorities for shooting one of his
mates on the American schooner Re-
public.
For thirty days after his seizure
in Guadeloupe harbor Johnson was
kept in jail and made to pay his
own board at the rate Of 60 cents a
day. Then when he was shipped
north he was compelled to pay his
own passage, although in irons, at a
cost of $34. How this will be un-
tangled the sea lawyers are conjec-
turing.
It is related that during the Napo-
leonic wars French prisoners at Dart
mouth prison m England were
served with a species Of red herring
that might almost be classified as a
stage property. The herring, it was
authentically reported, had been in
use fully five years. When it was de-
livered by the food contractor it was
unfit to eat. Nevertheless the pris-
oner had to take it as a part of his
ration. In despair he sold it back to
the contractor for something of less
value that was eatable.

FLOWN BY MERCHANT SHIPS
FIaas-Their Use Strictly Pre-
scribed by Custom.

The British mercantile flag is
known familiarly as the Red Ensign,
says London Tit-Bits. Strictly
speaking, no inland person has any
right to fly the Red Ensign ashore,
the only flag permissible being the
plain Union Jack, which the ordi-
nary citizen often flies upside down.
The Red Ensign has its official sta
tus from the edicts Of two queens.
Queen Anne in 1907 and Queen Vic
toria in 1864.
The merchantmen Of the colonies
generally use the Red Ensign also,
but by permission of the admiralty
may add the badge Of the colony Gin
the fly" Some nations have special
mercantile marine flags, but not all.
The United States flag, for instance,
is the Stars and Stripes for all occa-
sions.
The German mercantile flag of
black, white and red dates only from
1867, and symboiizes the union be-
tween the Hohenzollern black and
white and the red and white of the
Hanseatic league. The Russian mer-
camille flag; introduced by Peter the
Great, was originally the Dutch flag,
familiar to him from his studies in
Holland, reversed. Later the ar
rangement of the three colors was
varied.

WHAT CHILD LABOR ENTAILS
Minister, in Speech, Condemns the In.
evitable Shortening of the Years
of School Life.

Laws raising the age at which
children may be put to work were
favored by the Rev. Hugh McCau-
ley, in speech in Paterson, N. j.
GA strange sight greets us every
day in this rich and prosperous coun-
try" said the clergyman. every
morning an army of 1,750,ooo child
workers, ten to fifteen years of age,
goes forth to labor eight, nine, ten
and even eleven hours in factories,
sweat shops, mines, glass works, can
neries, fields or street trades. Every
night these weary thousands turn
homeward too worn out to play or
anything else but to snatch rest
less sleep, to enable them to 60 to
work again at seven or eight o'clock
the next morning.
"More startling still is the growth
Of this great evil. During the twenty
years ended in 1900 the federal CEN
sus shows that while child laborers
increased Sc per cent-more by 12
per cent than the increase in child
population-little girl workers in
creased 65 per cent. This, then, is
the preparation we are giving to the
future mothers of our land.
"Child labor means not only stunt
ed growth, long hours, physical over
strain, night work, but also a lamen-
table shortening of the school life of
these children.o

BOY BORN WITHOUT LEGS
But He Wins a Pony in Subscription
Contest and Is Puzzled as to
How to Ride Ii.

Little Louis Won Ruden, Glen
wood City's noted lapsus natura, has
just received word that he had won
a pony for securing the largest num-
Der of votes in a farm journals
subscription contest.
What he will do with the animal
when he gets it is matter Of specu-
lation, as he is entirely without lower
limbs, having been born that way
about ten years ago. Notwithstand-
ing his lack of natural propellers, he
gets about with more than the aver
age speed Of boys by means of a
roller skate strapped to a stump
where one of his legs ought to be.
He is an unusually bright boy for
his years, goes to school, enjoys uni
formly good health, and shows no
lack Of cheerfulness because of his
unique physical makeup.
Boyish discomforts from new
shoes are an unknown things to him,
and the dictates of fashion as to the
correct length and circumference Of
trousers legs have no interest for
him. His people are substantial
Germans, who see that he lacks for
none of the things that contribute
to juvenile happiness. - Glenwood

PROTECTS HOSE.

Mailing the twin lawn sprinkler
to the center of a piece Of board one
inch in thickness by eight inches
square will prevent the force of the
water from turning it over, which it
persists in doing. The hose may be
easily removed, leaving the sprayer
attached to the board with no fur
ther trouble. When using the long
nozzle for very fine spray, turn off
part of the waters force at the spigot
and your hose will last much longer,
as the inclosed entire force bursts the
hose.
