AN EASY GOING SENTINEL.

Such Little Thing as the Password
 Didn't Bother Him.
 An interesting picture of the confu- sion that attended the anti-Austrian demonstrations in Milan in 1S4S is given in Memories of Youth" by Si- gnor Giovanni Visconti Venosta.
 Very early in the morning, says the author, after several hours of heavy sleep in a hammock in an anteroom of Garnier college l descended into the street and ran into some people who, with tricolored shawls across their shoulders, were giving orders in the name of the committee of defense. They were trying to discipline the rev olution. Falling into their hands, l was stationed as d sentinel at use less barricade that shut off Via Durini from the Verziere. The commander, having inspected my pistols and per haps having found them not murder ous enough, placed in my hands a fencing foil. Then he gave me the countersign, Papa Pio."
 A little while afterward another chief came along, who re-enforced the post and gave me as companion a good old man who was armed with an antique lance. l told him the counter sign. and we soon became friends.
 A patrol appeared Halt" cried the old man. 'The countersign?"
 "Concordia. coraggio." replied the captain of the patrol.
 Truly" replied my companion, "the countersign is something else. How ever we are all, Italians, so pass on"

He Dodoed Cold Mutton.

A curious reply was made by Cecil Rhodes to a lady who, seeking to draw him out, suggested that he owed his phenomenal rise to the impetus of mo- ble sentiments.
 Madam" returned Mir. Rhodes, II owe my fortune simply and solely to cold mutton"
 Gold mutton" gasped the lady. "Oh. MT. Rhodes, what do you mean?"
 "When was young," continued the South African millionaire. "I was so dosed with cold mutton and hated 1t so cordially that resolved to grow rich in order to put it on one side for the rest of my life. Yes, madam, cold mutton was at the root of my success. Noble sentiments had nothing to do with it."

ENGLISH AND AMERICAN.
Differing Forms of Speech In Great
 Britain and This Country


 The common objects and phenomena of nature are often differently named in English and American. Such Amer icanisms as creek and run for small streams are practically unknown in England, and the English moor is q stranger ill the United States. The Englishman is naturally but little fa- miliar with bayou, gulch, gully, can yon, butte, divide and bluff. He knows the meaning of sound Q-ong Island sounO, but always uses channel in place of it.
 In the same way the American knows the meaning of English bog, but almost always uses swamp or marsh (often elided to ma'sh). Foot hill is an Americanism; so is cold snap: so also are prairie, backwoods, flats and neck Gin the sense of peninsula) The Englishman seldom if ever de- scribes a severe storm as hurricane, a cyclone, tornado or blizzard. He does not say that the temperature is 20 de- grees or that the thermometer or the mercury is at 20 degrees, but that there are three degrees of frost. He calls ice water iced water.-Pittsburgh Press.

Drinkino Water.

It is surprising how many people drink little or no water. There is no greater purifying agent than plenty of water internally. An abundance of it not only flushes the entire system. but improves the action of the skin; hence the complexion. Care should be taken that the water drunk is free from germs. If there is any doubt boil 1t. Do not confine yourself exclusively to either cold or hot water and do not take either at extreme temperatures.

Tho Crimean War,

The Crimean war was in 1853-56 be- tween Russia on one side and Turkey, France, Great Britain and Sardinia, as allies, on the other, side. It was called the Crimean war because it was main- ly fought in the Crimean peninsula. It arose through the demand of Russia for protectorate over the Greek sub. jects of the sultan and was closed and its issues decided by the treaty of Paris March 30. 1856. By this treaty Sebastopol, which had been captured. was restored to Russia. Russia aban. doned her claim as to Christians in Turkey and the Black sea was neu. traiized.

Settled the Duel.

Lord March, afterward the Marquis of Queensberry, was not accustomed to view a duel with unbecoming appre- hension and usually attended an affair with an air of enjoyment that often was decidedly displeasing and embar- rassing to his adversary. But he was served at last with that sauce which the proverb explains is for the gander as well as for the goose. It was when he was challenged to fight an Irish sportsman. Lord March appeared on the ground accompanied by q second, surgeon and other witnesses. His op- ponent arrived soon afterward with Il similar retinue, but added to by per son who staggered under the weight of polished oak coffin, which he depos ited on the ground, end up. with its lid facing Lord March and his party. Lord March became decidedly uncomfort- able when he read the inscription plate, engraved with his own name and title and the date and year of death, and peace was patched up.

Arizona Slid OF the Ways at New York
Navy Yard as She Was Christened
With Champagne and Water From
Roosevelt Dam

| NEW YORK, June 19.-The newest
of the sea fighters of the United
States, the uper-dreadnought Arizona,
christened with both champagne and
water, slipped into the water from
the ways of the New York navy yard
today Built at an expense of over
81, 900 the battleship will have cost
the government $16,000,000 by the
time she is fitted with her guns and
armor plate.
Miss Esther Ross, 'the prettiest girl
in Arizona" selected as sponsor for
the vessel by Governor Hunt of Ari-
IONA, smashed bottle of water over
the bow, and poured the champagne.
The water was not ordinary hydrant
water but was some of the first wa
ter that poured over the Roosevelt
dam.
The Arizona is the thirty-ninth
battleship built for the American navy
since 1893. :. The first fighting boat was
the Indiana. Compared with the Ari
IONA the Indiana would appear as a
