A student, scientist, and
sailor, Winterhalter is the
navy's ablest linguist, speak,
ing II languages.
He has specialized In as
tronomy, and represented his gov
eminent abroad at the interna-
tional astro-photographical con-
gress in Paris, in April, 1887.
Entering the naval academy in
1878, he reached the grade of rear
admiral May 5. 1915, two Days be-
fore the Lusitania sinking. Seven
days later, May II, 1915, he was
assigned by Secretary Daniels as
commander Of the Asiatic fleet,
thus becoming an admiral under
the new naval act giving this rank
to the commanders of the three
U. S. fleets.
Daniels had a good opportunity
to judge Winterhalter's ability, as
the latter had been serving as aid
for material to the secretary, and
also as a member of the general
board of the navy since November,
1911.
While Winterhalter's hobby is
astronomy, he has had more than
Is years of actual sea service. He
has covered almost every square
mile of waters in and about Asia,
the Philippines and the Pacific
islands before his assignment to
command the Asiatic fleet.

RAVEN CATCHES COINS.

London.-Even a raven has his likes
and dislikes. At the Cardiff barracks
there is one sergeant for whom the
bird sent home by the Second Welsh
regiment some years ago. bears a pos
tive dislike.
When the gentleman in khaki with
three stripes comes along the raven
retires with hop, skip and a jump
to a safe distance of twenty yards.
When the sergeant moves Off the ra-
ven returns to the spot he retreated
from, but If his pet aversion should
turn he gets ready to move Off again.
The dislike was evidently created by
teasing, for the sergeant often gives
the sable bird his dinner.
The raven is very fond of playing
with a coin. If person drops, say, a
shilling 1t is caught in the birds beak
before the coin can reach the ground.
Then, having secured his money, the
black old miser seeks an early oppor-
tunity to hide 1t.
