Church 1heatera.

Few people know that plays in Eng
land, Germany, Italy and France were
fostered for religious purposes by the
church centuries before they were TAX
en- up as separate secular business.
Moreover, few visitors to st. Paurs
cathedral, in London, realize that that
church during Elizabeth's reign and
the first years of the reign of James L.
set aside one Of its adjacent buildings
for use as secular theater. Its little
stage was famous, and the company
of choir boys as actors presented many
of the great plays Of Shakespeare's
time They acted from about 1893 to
1908 under the management Of Ed
ward Pierce, their great master in mu-
sic, who as church almoner had bust
ness control of these adjacent buildings
owned by the church.-London Stand

Fighting. Wind and Wave.

In storm at sea, with a gale blow
ing in one direction and the sea rum
ming in the opposite direction, it takes
stanch ship to stand the water pres
sure on one side and the contrary wind
pressure on the other.
Stability is one Of the greatest prob
lens to the constructor of a steamship.
Naturally the center Of gravity should
be low. The hull must be of such a
form that when the vessel rolls to one
side the center Of buoyancy shall move
sufficiently far to that same side for
the forces Of buoyance acting upward
to right the vessel.
\ A badly designed ship is liable. to
many dangers. If light in the stern the
screw may come out Of the water, race
and be snapped off. If too low in the
stern when running before a storm
breaking waves may fall on board and
so tend to swamp the vessel. A ship
may be top heavy. There comes mo-
ment when the upward force Of buoy
ancy no longer tends to right the ship,
but instead exerts it's force in pushing
the ship still farther out Of perpendicu-
lar, with the result that she capsizes.-

Why Wool Is Warm.

The main difference between wool
and linen is that wool is animal and
linen is vegetable and that the fiber of
wool is irregular. When the irregular
fiber Of the wool is woven it contains
certain little cells which hold a neutral
layer Of air. The linen has no such
cells. This layer of air which the
cells make is ike an invisible coat
that keeps the formal heat Of the body
from leaving it and that at the same
time keeps the atmosphere which is
colder than the body temperature from
entering it. >.
This layer Of air is, as some writer
has put it, little gaseous armor.
If wooden yarn is rendered straight
and regular by some special treatment
in the mill and is woven like, linen it
is only very little warmer than linen.
That little is due to its being animal,
which has always more warmth to it
than the vegetable product.

Storm Stories.

History repeats itself even in storms
at sea. The Norwegian steamer Spica
was broken from her moorings at
Blyth and pitched like cork over half
mile Of dangerous rocks until she
bumped against the pier. But this is
nothing to the adventure Of the Eben-
ezer, craft of ninety-five tons, which
was once driven by a gale toward
Chesil beach, near Portland. An enor-
nous wave seized hold Of the ship and
carried it to the very top of the bank,
where it was left high and dry. The
sailors stepped over the. side and walk
ed into Portland, where they were
greeted by some as liars, by others as
men who had come out Of the jaws of
DEATH" as the record puts it. But the
Ebenezer was found exactly as they
had said it would be, and two days lat
er she was launched and brought round
to Weymouth bay.-Westminster Ga
Zette.

piadrich knickerbocker.

It may be that Dutchman named
Knickerbocker did live in the early his
tory of New York, but if he did there
are no records extant to prove it. The
truth is, the name was created by
Washington Irving, who applied it to
all residents Of New York in his time
who happened to be descended from
the early Dutch settlers. Irving used
this quaint Dutch character in his
"Knickerbocker History of New York.
to burlesque the early days of the city.
The volume purported to have been the
work of Diedrich Knickerbocker and
gave an amusing and satirical account
Of the early Dutch settlers. Records
Of the period tell us that the book bit
terly offended their descendants, who
never forgave Irving for his fling at
them.-New York Times.
The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1917-01-23

A more startling exhibition of ne
cromancy has never before been at
tempted upon a local stage than that
offered first nighters at the Plaza
yesterday by Prince Karmi, who is
said to have been buried alive for 80
days while serving as a high priest
and spirit worker in India some years
ago. Whether he did or not was of
1ittle} moment to spectators at the
Plaza for they were too much alb
sorbed inswhat the eye could see and
too dumbfounded to stop rejecting
orrfwhat the eye could not see. Karmi
was assisted by, Selma who seemed
to have a veritable mania for disap-
pearing and for making other things
disappear.
Especial mention is due the efforts
of jerks and Allen, a most uncom-
ragnly talented "rube'' team who
have line of comedy chatter and
talk that cannot be surpassed for
laugh creating qualities.
dob Quigley, who is assisted by
Tony Mullen and Matt Farrell in a
cJeyer and original offering of song

sThe Little House Under the fii:l,"
was remembered by many Of the old
err vaudeville enthusiasts and given a
warm reception. The skit is entire

wonderful and he made a most ia
vorable impression on the throng last
