sEARcHLIGHTs IN WAR.
How They Are Worked by Distant
 Control In Land Operations.

In modern warfare the searchlight is invaluable. On dark nights at sea 1t Is the only means of guarding against torpedo boats. which it's beams will reveal at distance of two miles and more.
 On shore it is the electric eye of the army. It is carried to all parts of the field of action by motor truck. and the motor that propels the vehicle drives the electric generator that supplies the current for the light.
 Most of these field searchlights are not directed by hand. for each instru- ment is fitted with what is known as the distant control. Two small motors govern the vertical and the horizontal movements of the light. From them an electric cable runs to the station of the operator. who. although he may be several hundred feet away, can send the rays of the light in any direc- tion he pleases.
 According to the Navy and Army Illustrated. one advantage of this dis tant control is that the objects picked up by the beam of light can be sighted more quickly and more definitely, for if the operator stands behind the light and looks along the beam his vision is hampered by a luminous haze. A second advantage is that the light can be placed in an exposed position with out endansering the men who run it. Were the operator and officer beside the apparatus they would be certain to receive the fire that is sure to be poured upon searchlight and would suffer the instant the range was found.

PICKING A pIcKPocKET.
Rules That Guide Chicago Detectives
 In Spotting Their Man.

How to tell a pickpocket when you see one-the feat is apparently not difficult, for all applicants who take the civil service examination to be- come Chicago detectives are required to have mastered it.
 What are the physical characteris- tics of pickpockets?" the would be thief catchers are asked.
 And this is the answer they are ex- pectcd to give:
 "rickpockets ordinarily travel in mobs and are of two distinct types one small or medium stature, the other tall and muscular. As q general rule, the age runs from eighteen to thirty five. Their hands are soft, show no signs of work. and the fingers of all except the stall and particularly the fingers of the wire are long and slen- der. Their eyes are shifting and fur tive. Their complexion is generally sallow and without distinct color. this being due either to prison pallor ill types or to the use of cocaine or other drugs. The cocaine users show drawn features and prominent cheek bones and usually have distinct rings around the eyes.
 '"The temperament of pickpockets is 1 high strung because of the dangers of the profession or from the use of drugs. At the same time they are DO, lite almost to the point of obsequious- ness. They seldom carry weapons and rarely resort to force. On duty they dress to suit the occasion, generally well. but not conspicuously. They avoid wearing anything that might lead to identification" Baltimore 1 American.

VIRTUE OF AN APPLE.
At One Time the Fruit Was Called the
 Food of the Gods"

At One Time the Fruit Was Called the
 Food of the Gods"
 The apple has become so familiar as the cornmonest of all fruits that its value as mans greatest friend in the vegetable kingdom may not be fully realized. It was called the flood of the gods' because it was believed to be the magic renewer of youth to which the gods resorted when they felt them selves growing old and feeble.
 There have been many mystic tradi- tions about the apple, which has been credited with varied potency. It is the healing fruit of the Arabian tales. Latin chronicles and institutes and ear ly English poems contain many refer ences to it. Scientific analysis of late years has justified all the ancient glori- tication of this fruit. which has been found to contain albhmen, sugar, gum, malic acid. gallic acid. fiber. water and phosphorus.
 Malic acid of apples neutralizes the excess of chalky matter caused by too much meat and thereby helps to keep us young. Apples are good for the complexion. as their acids drive out the noxious matters which cause skin eruptions. They are good for the brain which those same noxious matters, if retained. render sluggish. The acids of the apple diminish the acidity of the stomach that comes with some forms of indigestion.
 The phosphorus. of which apples con- tain a larger per cent than any other fruit or vegetable. renews the essential Boston Herald.

OUR FIRST ELECTION.
Methods In the Days When Washing
 ton Was Chosen President.

At the first national election at which General Washington was chosen presi- dent only eleven of the thirteen states voted. North Carolina and Rhode ls- land not yet having entered the Union and in only three-Pennsylvania. Mary land and Virginia popular cleo tions held. In the other eight states the legislatures chose the electors New York did not choose electors because of feud between the anti-Federalist house and the Federalist senate.
 One exciting incident was caused by the fear on the part of Alexander Ham, ilton that John Adams. who was on the ticket for vice president with Washington. was plotting to tie the vote, and thus by throwing the cleo tion into the national house of repre- sentatives defeat the Father of His Country for president. So real was this fear in Hamilton that he dis patched messengers on horses to Eir- ginia. Connecticut and New Jersey to stampede the legislatures of the latter two states to Washington.
 So long did it take to gather news that Washington was actually inauGu- rated president before some of the remote counties in Virginia had sent ill their returns. In this first election there was only one ticket and there was no campaigning. There were only about 3.OOO.OO0 inhabitants in the cuun, try at that time. and the whole cost presidential election is estimated at less than $1OO.GUO. Pittsburgh Dispatch.
