AIibis Cheerfully Furnished.

There are tricks even in the sailor
boys trade. Consider the one of this
young man whose war vessel is an
chored somewhere near New York. He
came into hotel in West Forty-second
street one night at 3 o'clock, writes
a New York correspondent, the clerk
pushed the register around and the
seaman signed his name. He did not
speak. He took his room key and went
to his room. Next morning at IL
O'Clock he came downstairs in a rage.
To the clerk he told the story of hav-
ing left call for o'clock, and of not
having been called. Then to the man.
ager he rushed. 81 have not been
called by your clerk, and l am six
hours late reporting at my post of
duty. 1t is the fault of the hotel and
demand n written letter from you,
the manager, to the commander of my
ship. saying the blame is yours, that
l was not called when l should have
been" The manager didn't even smile.
He knew the sailors game, and hur-
riedly dashed off letter. assuming all
blame for the young patriots failure
to arrive at his post on time.

which show the extent of the distance
at which the guns are heard. Scien-
lists at University college declare they
can be distinguished at a range of 200
miles. This would include places like

Weymouth. Sound travels at rate Of
about 1000 feet a second, so that the
