and Dillon were to engage each other
IN one Of the old time knock 'em dead
fights That, of course, couldn't be
done under the law and Browne is going
to tell him that. Then he is going to
say Darcy and Dillon never had any
intention of violating the law

No changes are noted in the market
quotations today. Potatoes continue
weak with but little demand from the
east and south and buyers are just
waiting a few days to find out whether
the weakness is merely temporary,
Eggs are also inclined to drop to low
or prices Notwithstanding the cool
weather. The lower price has also been
caused by lack of support from the
outside buying world.

Cultivate Enthusiasm,

Enthusiasm is the dynamics of your
personality. Without it. whatever abil-
tiles you possess lie dormant. You
may have knowledge, sound judgment,
good reasoning faculties. but no one
will know it until you discover how to
put your heart into thought and action.
A wonderful thing is this quality
which we call enthusiasm. If you
would like to be a power among men
cultivate enthusiasm. People will like
you better for it: you will escape the
dull routine Of mechanical existence.
and you will make Roadway wherever
you are.-,I. Ogden Armour in I.eslie's.

SOWING MINES in TIE SEA.
How These Ship Destroyers Are Laid
and Anchored.

How These ship Destroyers Are Laid
and Anchored.
Mine laying and mine sweeping are
two important subordinate functions
In modern navy. and both Of these
occupations are fraught with danger
to those engaged in them.
A mine is really a metal globe con-
tanning anything from 200 pounds to
200 pounds Of trinitrotoluene. or
II. n. r.. an extremely powerful high
explosive. calculated to make things
very unpleasant for any ship that runs
against one of the little horns on top
Of the mine.
Before the mine is put into the sea
the globe Squats, as one might say.
between four metal uprights upon a
round, fiat weight. to which it is at
tached by short length Of wire rope,
the greater part of which is coiled
round drum inside the weight.
When the mine is put into the water
the whole contrivance sinks at once
to the bottom. AS soon as it touches
ground the bump releases little
catch, which sets all sorts Of wheels
revolving, with the result that the four
uprights fall outward. They grip the
sea bed, and the contrivance is an
chored. Then the globe begins to rise,
while the rope unwinds until it has
reached a fixed length.
Thereafter woe betide the unfortu-
nate ship that runs upon it.-London
Chronicle.
