Markings of Horses Coat.

It Is found that there is a very def nite connection between the coat color of horses and the frequency with which white markings occur Thus the latter are by far the most com mOnly associated with the chestnut color. And not only are they the most prevalent in chestnut horses, but it is alsO of course, a Well-knOwn fact that the markings are apt to be more eX- tended in nature in the case of this color than in that of any other. Chest
 nut, therefore, apparently possesses so to speak, special affinity for these markings. Bay ranks next as regards the degree of frequency with which white markings appear in horses of this color, although it comes a good way behind chestnut in this respect. Then follows brown, while the white marks are met with less frequently among black and rOan COlOred horses.

Why Strike Collapsed.

Two telegraph operators worked in the office of the Milwaukee Free Press Both were employed by the press as sociation and not by the paper. They came sOuSed one Sunday night, de cided to strike, making demands for more pay and shorter hours from the managing editor of the newspaper. They were told to make their petition to their employers. The telegraphers retired for a council of war, put the strike into effect and decided to picket the office. The office had but one en- trance, but there must be strategy; so one of the strikers posted himself directly in front of the office and the other around the corner the two be- ing out of sight of each other.
 Then each had the same hunch 0f getting another drink They left their posts and that was the end of the strike. Other operators (were called in and the wires b9..zed merrily on.- Pep.

LAUNCH WAIT
 IS SET ON FIRE
 BY EXPLOSION

With a detOnatiOn which shook the whole city, bringing people who had retired for the night to the windows of their homes, and causing habitues of the pool rooms and other places to rush to the streets in large num- bers, an explosion on board the launch Waif about midnight last night set fire to the craft as she lay at the City dock, and nearly caused her destruction.
 It was some time after the explO sion that the siren at the Public Util- ities office sounded the alarm, to be quickly followed by the ringing of the fire bell and again there was some delay in locating the scene of the explosion and fire. The new auto fire apparatus was gotten out with some difficulty, owing to the fact that there was no light in the fire hall, and a chemical drawn by hand which started for the scene of the fire eX- p1oded and blew the cover off before reaching it's destination.

Little Red Wagon Fails

It was a night of mishaps. The chemical engine, driven by Dick Ker- wood started down the c avenue hill toward the dock, and at point near the alley between First and Water streets the front axle gave way and the machine was a helpless wreck.
 The hose was quickly removed from the machine and a connection made with the hydrant at the inter section of the railroad with avenue, and two lines of hose were laid.
 In the meantime the Waif had burst into a seething mass of flames, and the adjoining warehouses, con- taining much cOmbustible material, were endangered. Willing men, at the risk of the consequences, with poles succeeded in moving the burn ing vessel some distance from the wharf, and in the meantime the fire men got two streams of water on the fire The fire had gained such headway, however, that it was soon seen that the oil-saturated launch would be almost totally destroyed. The efforts of the fremen Were sue cessful in preventing the fire from spreading to the dock.
 The Waif is owned by Matthews and Arnold For a long time she was

February @. 1918. and Cora Virginia, aged
year, who died May 10, 1918, little daugh-

The tiny buds God gave to us
Grew just little while,
Before the leaves unfolded
We lost their tender smile.
Their little lips. so sweet to kiss,
Are closed forever now
Their sparkling eyes that shined so bright
Beneath their pearly brow.
And though the circle is broken.
And the parting has filled us with pain,
We hold as glorious token
The bright hope Of meeting again.

In. Memory or Miss Bette OxIey.

1t is the solemn fate of all into each
life some rain must fall.
1t is with sad heart these few lines are
written in memory of my friend. Bette C.
Oxley, who departed this life on April 3rd,
1919. We miss you, dear friend
1t will not be long ere we too shall come to
that riverside.
One by one.
We are nearer its waters each eventide.
One by one.
We can almost hear the dash of the stream
Now and again through life's deep dream
Sometimes the floods all its banks over
flow,
Sometimes in ripples the small waves 90.
One by one.
Bette is gone from our midst, she has
solved the mystery of death, and her chris
tian character furnishes an example worthy
of imitation. She has been mother to
the motherless, a loving and devoted sister
true, dear friend. Her smiles are now a
fond recollection. Her calm, gentle voice
is silent forever, but remains with one
whom she labored so faithfully in the
church work. And now my name is the
only one on the roll Of those who joined
the Sewing Society in 1879.
May God bless those left and may they
try to follow her example and be comforted.

Horta, Azores, May 10 (l0i30 a. m1
tBy the Associated Press Rear Ad-
miral Phmkett, on the cruiser Rochester
at Lisbon, has sent word here suggesting
that the seaplane NC-4 join in the search
this morning for the missing NC.3. This
suggestion is believed here, however, to
be impracticable because the searching
seaplane would be forced back by heavy
head winds
Ten destroyers and the battleships
Florida and Texas were securing the
seas this forenoon for the NC-3, which
was last heard from 200 miles northwest
Of Corvo at Gala a. m, on Saturday. I'm
less the crew had been picked up by a
passing craft or their plane landed near
one of the adjacent islands and is unable
to communicate, the safety of Comman-
der Towers and his men is feared for by
naval men here, because the heavy seas
and gales of the last AS hours it is
thought would have badly damaged and
possibly totally wrecked the plane. All
available war craft have been ordered to
join in the search.
The NC4, which arrived at Horta in
perfect condition on Saturday, expects
to start for Ponta Delgada during this
forenoon, but as she has fuel enough on
board for the fight TO Lisbon she may
fly directly for that port,

four hits while their opponents secured
but three. Batteries for Goddard were
