NAVY LIBRARY WORTH VISIT
Apartment In States. War and Navy
Building at Washington Should
Appeal to Tourists.

The navy library. in the state. war
ana navy building. is lovely place to
soak up atmosphere. Like the build
ing Itself, 1t is thirty-three years old.
When II was built England. France,
spain and Italy presented the marbles
or porphyry. sienna and malachite with
which the walls are paneled. Mexico
sent the pieces of onyx which encrust
the gallery. The round stone over the
door came from the ruins of Pompeii.
Inc connoisseur In marble who visits
washington will enjoy a call here.
In the center of the large room, lined
with shelves of weighty tones on ma
val matters, there is a large and i'm
portant green-topped table. Around
this table sat the strategic board OF
the Spanish-Amerlcan war. Here also
the naval advisory board for the great
war made their secret plans and ex-
periments. Edison Maxim, Miller and
many others conferred over it. with
the windows carefully darkened and a
guard before the door.
There Is quaint side to the library,
too. A little white-haired lady can be
seen any time, fitting about the
shelves Of dark, heavy books. or cut
ting and FASTING busily in her corner
by the window. This is Miss Mason,
daughter of a former secretary Of the
navy. She has been in the library
20 years. If you happen in near noon
she may give you a cup of tea on one
corner of her desk.
And Of all charming places to have
an unexpected cup Of tea. with
sweet little lady, this quiet nook
among the books is recommended.

TWO TRAVELLERS CAME BACK
According to Army Captain, Mules Re-
turned From That Dim and
Undiscovered Shore.

The regimental morning report is
fearsome document. On 1t appear all
the changes in status of men and ami
mails for each preceding "A hours. II
happened in an Ohio regiment once
that two mules fell i'll one night. The
veterinarian gave his verdict of hope
less. and the captain of the supply
company accordingly made the proper
entry on the morning report: Two
mules, from duty to dead"
But under the care of the grizzled
old stable sergeant the mules recov.
cred and next morning the captain
found them alive and kicking. Now,
entries made on the morning report
can never be erased, which made the
situation embarrassing for the cap
tain. However, he was man Of re-
source, and the next days report car
ried the startling entry: 1.-TWO mules,
from dead to duty"

Brusa.

Brusa, into which British troops
have entered without opposition. was
the capital of Bithynia when Trajan
appointed Pliny the Younger to gov
ern the province. 1t was from Brusa,
then Prusa, at the foot of Mt. Olympus,
that Pliny wrote the letters to Trajan
which are among the most interesting
of his voluminous correspondence. 1t
is said that Brusa owes its existence TO
some scheme of Hannibals. but of the
Roman and Bithynian city hardly any
trace remains. though Brusa boasts Of
very fine old Mohammedan mosques.
The city of Asia Minor is situate In

Two years before the war, as the
story is told, two German chemists
applied for permission to experiment
with the plant life on a great semi-arid
ranch in central Mexico. Their re-
quest was granted. with the under
standing that they furnish a complete
report of their findings. The two
chemists worked feverishly, and chiefly
on squat, odorous shrub called go
bernadora," long reputed to possess
medicinal properties. Suddenly they
disappeared what they had discover
ed was never known. Now, after ex-
periments with this same desert
shrub which they have found in drier
parts of New Mexico, chemists of the
United States department of agricul-
ture believe that they have discovered
another alkaloid to add to the list
which already includes morphine.
