sPORTsMEN IN NEW THRILL
Shooting of Flying Fish Said to Afford
Much Pleasure to Those Who
Like Such Things.

A novel combination of land and
sea sport is the shooting of flying
fish. It is a brand new sport and
as yet has not spread beyond the Ha-
waiian islands. 1t is far more in
teresting than tarpon fishing or
other supposedly thrilling sports, ac-
cording to New York man, as it
requires a quick and accurate shot
to bag fish and also one has to be an
acrobat in order to maintain his
equilibrium in the boat from which
he frae
To bag one fish from a school Is
considered a praiseworthy feat for
an accurate gunner. Hunters who
go in search of flying fish go in
trustworthy launch and are usually
gone from early morning till night.

become common, because it is said

FEMINIST CARD GAME IS NEW
Philadelphia Social Leader Spends a
Small Fortune Designing New
Pack Of Cards.

At the big reception given by Mrs.
John King Van Rensselaer, at her
Philadelphia home, new card game
came into existence. ''Women Are
Trumps" is the title of the newest
pastime and it is related distinctly
to the feminist movement in which
Mrs. Van Rensselaer, is deeply inter
ested.
For the production of the new
game small fortune was expended.
Fifty-two cards compose the pack
with which it is played, and the de-
signs, skillfully executed, are of in
finite meaning Women at their
work are depicted and the orna-
ments of ancient princesses, the robes
of medieval queens and the tablets Of
a people of early Egypt passed un-
der the scrutiny of craftsmen en-
gagged to produce the cards and Incl
dents in the life Of queen who ruled
two thousand years ago were made
the basis of some of the games fea-
lures.
A pack Of cards was provided for
each of the eight hundred invited as
guests and it is believed the game
will spread far and near.
Mrs. Van Rensselaer, believes the
game cannot be used for gambling.

HEZEkIAH AND CANCER CURE.

It is evident that medical science,
in its determination to master dis
ease, has found in radium a powerful
weapon against cancer, and the call
upon the government to retain its
radium fields in the West, and the
proposition of distinguished physi-
clans to aid the general government
in plan to cheaper the substance
and universalize its treatment is
beautiful in the extreme. Hezekiah,
king Of Judah, who lived 700 years
B. c., had a growth on his body,
which may well have been a cancer,
called in the record boil. 1t was
divine power that wrought the cure,
but material instrument was used
in the poultice, the primitive remedy.
"And Isaiah said, Take lump of
figs And they took and laid it on

SHEEP FOR PRINCE EDWARDS.

Consul Wesley Frost, stationed at
Charlottetown, Prince Edward
island, reports that small flock of
karakul sheep is to be imported into
that province from Texas. Prince
Edward island has recently achieved
considerable notoriety through its re-
markedly lucrative fox-breeding in
dustry, and leading raisers of foxes
are backing the new enterprise. II
is proposed to cross the karakul sheep
with the long-wool sheep Of the
island, which are celebrated for the
fine luster and strong fiber of their
wool, in the expectation that strain
of hybrids will result having the
tight curls of the karakul at birth,
together with the gloss and strength
of the local breeds.

TO SEE OCEANS MYSTERIES
Invention of italian Engineer Is Likely
Soon to Be Put Into Gen.
eral Use.

"Come down and see the fish"
may be a greeting this summer at
some seaside resorts. Several water
ing places are negotiating for the
installation of the kiosb-hydro, a new
invention, which enables sightseers
to descend into the sea.
The kiosk-hydro, which is the in
vention of an Italian engineer, con-
sists of a circular steel observation
chamber in the walls of which are
double water-tight windows. Above
these windows are electric lamps of
10000 candle power, fitted with re-
Electors and capable, it is claimed,
Of projecting light a distance of
1900 feet when the water is clear.
The chamber has a sloping roof,
which narrows into a steel tube,
through which two staircases, one for
descent and the other for ascent, lead
to the water level. The upper part
of the kiosk-hvdro may either take
the form Of floating kiosk, rising
and falling with the tide, and con-
nected with pier by gangwav. or

sToKERs STUCK TO POSTS.

Four Clyde shipyard employees
have been commended by the admir-

in connection with the stranding of
the torpedo destroyer Laverock off
Skelmorlie, Clyde.
When the destroyer ran ashore
her plates ripped, and water rushed
into the stokehold. Although the
four stokers were ignorant of the

WHAT is A sENTIMENTALIsT?

Sentimental" is one of the most
difficult catchwords in the world to
define; and you can get roomful of
intelligent people quaEreling over it
any time. Perhaps, for our purposes,
it will serve merely to say that the
sentimentalist is always, in one way
or another, disloyal to facts. He
cannot be trusted to give a straight
account, because his own sense of
things is more valuable to him than
the truth. He has come In on the
