MACKENSIE ANNIVERSARY.

Alexander Mackenzie, the first white man to penetrate the Rockies and the Selkirks and pass through those mighty barriers to the Pacific, com pleted that long. Journey 125 years ago today. Upon reaching the goal of his ambitions, after many perilous adventures, he inscribed this brief record in enduring stone: Alexander Mackenzie, from Canada, by land, 22d, July, 1793." The rock bearing this inscription is still to be seen at Dean Inlet. Mackenzie was the great est of the many explorers who risked everything and endured everything in penetrating the fastnesses of thai terra incognita which is now western Canada. Like so many other pioneers Mackenzie was a member of the Northwest Company, and was station ed at Fort Chipewyan. From there he started on the trip that led to the discovery of the river bearing his name, and from there hel ater set out on his successful attempt to reach the Pacific. Mackenzie was rewarded with knighthood for his discoveries but he did not live to fully understand and appreciate the far-reaching inn portance of his own work. It remain. ed for later generations to reap the rich rewards of the pioneering work of Mackenzie and the other brave fur
 traders.

CANIOCFLAGING OF MERCHANT SHIPS TO
 BE DIRECTED BY NAVY.

The United States Shipping Board authorizes the following:
 All camoufaging of ships built for the Shipping Board will hereafter be prescribed and supervised by the Navy Department. A decision to this effect has been reached at a conference held between representa-. tivs of the Navy Department and the Shipping Board. It was mutually agreed that camouflaging the ships for war service constituted a mili- tary requirement and therefore the Navy should say how. it is to be done.
 The agreement provides as fol- lows:
 '"The Navy Department will pre- pare the types and designs of ca mou1age painting for general use, and, where practicable, design of ca moufage paintNS applicable to par ticular ships.
 These designs will be furnished the district camouf1eurs through the mouflage section, division of steel. ship construction of the Emergency Fleet Corporation. The district ca mouf1eur will use the design most applicable to the form and type of ship to be camouI1age painted.
 ''The district camouf1eur shall not change the principle of the design furnished by the Navy Department, but may adopt such, design to suit the particular ship which is being ca moufage painted"

Bichat's investigations there had been little systematic order in the study of anatomy and physiology, and dissections were chiefly made with a view to the practical arts of surgery alone. Bichat was a pioneer in at- tempting to reduce the complex struc- lures of the body to their elementary tissues, and to ascertain the peculiar properties of each simple tissue.
 His Anatomy Generale," and An atomy Descriptive" formed 6 new era in the development in the science of anatomy, and while many of his gen. eralizations were faulty he supplied the incentive for others to carry on the work. Naturally of g. weak con- stitution, his incessant labors so wore upon him as to bring his brilliant ca reer to an end while he was still little more than a boy.

Bond Permission
 Not Yet Received

Although Bridgeport. through the mayor, has made application to the Capital Issues Commission of the United States government for per mission to issue bonds for construc- ton of a sewage disposal plant, and members of the city administration seemed confident it would be approv- ed, there is little likelihood of its going through. The policy of the government at this time is to frown upon municipal bond issues except for the most urgent necessities, and sewers are specifically excluded from that classification. Application was made last week following a meeting of the common council, but the response has not yet been received.
