MINES GROW HARMLESS.
Barnacles Grow on Them and Prevent
Explosion.

There do not seem to be nearly So
many vessels destroyed by floating
contact mines as there were in the
early part of the war in European
waters. This may be due to several
causes great number caught by
mine-sweepers and the drifting
ashore of. many, while others have
been swept from their anchorages
and are drifting around the sea. But
| think there has also been another
reason.
A short time after the Maine was
blown up, or even before, the Span
iards mined all of the harbors in
Cuba with both floating contact and
electric mines. This was particular
ly true of Guantanamo harbor. Our
ships steamed in there at the early
part of the war, and, ignoring the
mines, opened fire on the Spanish po-
sition. In doing so the Marblehead
and Texas both fouled floating con-
tact mines with their propellers and
literally dragged them from their
moorings, and no explosion followed, F.,
or we would have lost two fine ships.
The launches of the Marblehead and
the other ships then swept the har-
Dor and secured in all nineteen con-
tact mines.
= One day in going on board the
United States ship Panther on duty |
saw a gunner's mate dismantling one
of these mines. He had already re-
moved the charge Of guncotton, and,
being interested, in the matter, l
asked him why the mines had not
exploded when fouled by the Mar
blehead and Texas He picked up a
machinist's hammer and struck one
of the contact plungers powerful
blow; and it was not even started. On
close examination I found that the
percussion contact plungers were all
absolutely sealed by. barnacles and
marine growths so securely that the
plungers would break off before. they
could be driven home. This was, OF
course, in tropical waters after only
a few months of service, and this is
what saved our ships from destruc-
ton in Cuban harbors In the tenn
perate zone the same thing will loc:-
cur, except that the period of useful
ness of the mine will be longer. The
mines in European waters have been
down year, and believe that many
of them will be rendered innocuous
from the same cause. This applies,
of course, only to contact mihes.-

Beauty of the Dove.

The mourning dove received its
given name from the mournful sound
of its call notes. It's sad-voiced coo,
coo, coo, suggests moaning and, next
to the awful, storm-beaten wall of the
screech owl, it is, under certain condi-
tons, the most .doleful sound uttered
by an American bird. | knew one SEN
sitive woman who was SO affected by
the daily mourning of a neighboring
dove that she begged a sportsman to
brighten it away. Another peculiar
fact about this bird is the strange mu-
steal note that is sounded by the vibra-
ton of it's wings. AS the bird springs
from the ground in flight, or wings it's
way overhead, the pulsations of it's
wings give forth ringing, metallic
sound. like the twanging of a tight
wire. This dove loves country roads,
more than any other bird, and to those
who love beautiful things, its exquis-
itely nodded form and immaculate
plumage is always pleasing touch Of
nature. One might as well try to de-
scribe in words the colors in a fire
opal as those of this bird.

range an interesting musical program
The presence of the Saracina band in
its first appearance for the season
through the courtesy of Commodore

the Daytona lodge of Elks, formed an
attractive feature of the program.

of the Elks' lodge with the impressive
tolling of eleven strokes of the clock
and the explanation of its mystic
meaning to all Elks, coupled with the
calling of the roll of those members
of the lodge who had passed into the
Great Beyond.
A selection by the band was fol
lowed by vocal solo, Fear Ye Not
o Israel" by w. ]. Mcdonald, accom-
panied on the piano by Matthew p.
Cornwall.
Then came the address by Rev. VIM,
]. Drew, pastor of the Congregational
church, who was introduced by the ex-
allied ruler. Mr.. Drew, who is an
easy and fluent speaker, made very
pleasing address, calling attention to
| the purpose of the service and the
strong brotherly sentiment that evil
IDENTIFY existed among the Elks. He
| expressed the belief that while the
service was ceremony it was not n
| perfunctory one, but an expression If
real feeling by those participating. He
spoke of the world as Gods workshop
| for the making of brotherly men, with
institutions like the Elks' order as in
struments to that end, and quoted
frequently selections of poetry illus
trating his theme.
Mr.. Drew's address was followed by
a violin solo. "Cavatina," by A. T.

by David Sholtz, and another selec
tion by the band, and then the exalted
ruler introduced Hon. E. Noble Cal
