sTRATAGEMs OF WAR.
Clever Tricks by Which Two Chilean
Warshins Were Sunk. -.i

Warshins Were Sunk.
Between the years 1870 and 1854 the
republics of Peru and Chile were Mt
war, and, although the Peruvians were
Eventually discounted, they displayed
great adroitness in naval matters. On
one occasion they succeeded in sinking
two Chilean warships. their clever
strategy being thus described by Ste
phen Coleridge I'm his memoirs: VI,
Soon after the Chilean fleet had set
tied down to the blockade Of CallaO
there appeared III the bay one morning
a large barge of fruit that had obvious
ly gone adrift from the shore. The
Peruvians put out III boats and steam
pinnaces to bring the barge back. and
the Chileans. seeing what was happen
ing. also sent out pilnaces and boats
to intercept and capture the drifting
barge. A fierce fusillade between the
hostile boats followed and several men
were killed or wounded. At length the
Pcruvians drew off and left the barge
in the hands of the triumphant Chile
ans. who lowed it of amid the cheers
Of their ships crews, who had watched
the fight with keen interest.
"They brought the barge alongside
one Of the big men-of-war and quickly
sent the cargo Of luscious fresh fruit
lup the side in baskets. When about
half the cargo had been taken on board
a terrific explosion shook the bay, and
an enormous hole appeared In the side
Of the great ship which sank instantly
with all hands. BY ali arrangement of
springs and balances huge charge of
dynamite in the bottom of the barge
was ignited when a certain amount OF
the weight Of the cargo was removed.
Although the Peruvians had waged the
fight for the possession of the barge;
with fierce persistence, they had never
intended to be successful. "
"A few weeks later large manor.
war was sent up the coast to capture
anything worth having at Huacho. On
the appearance of the vessel the in.
habitants drew their boats far inland
and. taking all their valuables, fled into
the interior. One boat, new one,
larger than the others. they hauled
some little way up the beach and then
abandoned. F."
,"After pillaging the place the Chile.
ans looked at the boat. which was en-
tirely empty. The Peruvians had re-
moved oars sails. mast and even the
rowlocks. The Chileans looked it over
to be sure that there was no dynamite
in it and then lowed It away to their
vessel The captain had the davits run
out and ropes put round the seats at
the bow and the stern. Then he Or-l
dered his men TO haul away. H. -.s
1T was the last order he ever gave.
for the moment the ropes frightened
1.-THE ship was blown to pieces and dis
appeared in seventy fathoms of water.
A false bottom had concealed ire
mendous charge Of dynamite that was
arranged to ignite when any upward
force was applied to any of the seats.
THE inhabitants of the town, who
had watched their stratagem destroy,
a great man-ot-war without the small
est risk to themselves, returned hilari-
ously to their houses with songs and
Dances ..-@..

GASTRIC REBELLION.
Some Of the Mistakes In Eating That
Incite Poor Digestion.

Inoits Poor Digestion.
Indigestion is often attributed. to
hasty eating. and people are reproved,
and rightly so. for boiling their food.
but it is interesting to observe that,
while the boiling of meat is always Sc
verely censured, one never hears any
blame attached to those who swallow
fruit by the mouthful and devour I'M
cooked vegetables without any at
tempt at mastication. Nevertheless it
is the hastE. swalloWer of vegetable
fiber who is, really the inciter of gastric
rebellion. Vegetables Dire at all times
very imperfectty idisestea by the stom-
ach and require their tough fbers to
be thoroughly broken up by the teeth
il they are to be dissolved even in the
bowel. .'t''
There is we'll known saying which
AYERS that digestion waits upon appe-
tite, and there is no doubt that of all
the adjuvants to digestion keen de-
sire for food is the most powerful and
important But appetite itself often
depends upon conditions which are in
dependent Of the body's absolute neces-
stiles. Thus the aspect Of the food, its
smell, taste and even the manner in
which it is served all help either to
stimulate desire for it or to induce Il
sense of aversion. while the environ
ment Of the diner often exercises i'm
portant influence, beneficial or other
wise.
Brain work Of any kind interferes
with the rapid digestion of food. and
even the habit of reading during meal
times, practiced by so many, is con-
ducive neither to appetite nor diges-
ton. A well lighted room, music and
frivolous conversation will often per-
nit chronic dyspeptic to enjoy with
out remorse the pleasures Of the table,
while depressing atmosphere, uncon-
genial company and unappetizing
dishes may induce fit Of indigestion
in .the most healthy individual.-FOod
and Cookery.

CHARM OF THE BIBLE.
lts Poetic Beauty and the Marvel Of It's
Word Pictures.


Then some of us who cared for lit
erature took up the Bible casually and
found its psetic beauty. We read the
book of Job-which, by the way, Mr..
Swinburne is said to have known by
heart-and as we read it even the
stars themselves seemed less wonder
full than this description Of their mar
vel and mystery:
Canst thou bind the sweet influences of
Pleiades or loose the bands Of Orion?
Canst th1l bring forth Mazzaroth in his
season? Or canst thou guide Arcturus
with his sons? 'l
Or. we read in the thirty-seventh
chapter of the book Of Ezekiel of that
weird valley that was full Of bones
land as prophesied there was
noise, and behold baking, and the
bones came together. bone to BONE
surely one of the most wonderful vi
sions Of the imagination in all litera-
ture. -. ..r H.
