NEW LATvIAN NAVY STRANGEST M

London, Nov. I1-What is probably the strangest navy In history has just sprung into being.
 The little Baltic state of Latvta re- gently decided that it must have some warships to protect it's long coastline and prevent smuggling. and so 1t has now put into commission a battle fleet of three armed tugboats.
 Not content with this armada, Lat via has decided to have a flagship for it. Her first "battleship," the Yer saiti, will be launched this month with a sped Of IT knots. T he Versaiti has had an interest ng if inglorious career already, for she is nothing less than the old German suardshtp EM-6S, which was sunk in Latvian waters in 1917 and has now been raised and renovated.

FLAG Hoisted Below Water.

The British flag has been raised
under unusual circumstances in the
past, but perhaps the conditions We're

mony which has just taken place at
Swanson bay, British Columbia, where
two divers, nearly 100 feet below the
surface of the sea, hOisted the ships
ensign on the flagstaff of the Sunken
ship Prince Rupert, which is now in
process of being salvaged. One diver
bent the colors to the halyards and
slowly hOisted them while his mate

connected with his helmet, the strains

Locusts in Argentina.

A plague of locusts, like that which
in ancient Egypt covered the face OF

the province of Santa Fee, Argentina.
Similar Offensives are almost annual

cloud of them will one day appear

which they deposit their eggs. Within
a short time the larvae are Matched

not fly, and it is at this stage that they
devour every living plant within their
path, with the exception of few
species, such as willow trees.

their wings and, leaving the country
through which they have passed a
desert, they disappear almost as sud-
denly as they came. Where they go

RANKS AS GREAT KENTUCKIAN
Memory Of Judge w. n. Yost Will
linger Long With the Men Of the
Bench and Bar.

The passing Of Judge w. II. Yost
takes from Kentucky life one Of it's
most picturesque characters. He was
noted as the biggest" lawyer in the
state, man of giant stature, taller
by several inches than the late Ollie
James, and weighing $50 pounds.
He was a delightful raconteur, and
one of his favorite stories was about
getting his shoes blackened at a Louis
vile stand. The sinner was inclined
to be loquaciouS, and the judge want
ed to read his newspaper, so he made
a sign pretending to be deaf and
dumb.
The bootblack brushed away at his
considerable task awhile and then re-
marked to nearby newsboy:
HI of big -, amt he?"
But while the Judge enjoyed that
curiosity.
Once in the lobby OF Hstel Latham,
local lawyer introduced fellow
citizen, who gave the big man the once
over and inquired:
"Say, judge, how tall are you, any
how?"
Judge Yost glowered down on his
Questioner, and snapped:
HAS your wife false teeth?"
We shall never forget a scene in
County Judge Polk Cansler's court
years ago when the examining trial
of number of suspects in the Bub
Coffey murder case was being held.
After hearing the testimony, Judge
Canister announced that he would hold
all the defendants to the grand jury.
Up rose Judge Yost, then attorney
"On what grounds, please, are these
men denied their freedOm?" he thun-
dered.
"Well," said Judge Cansler, not a
bit awed. "Just for general running
around"
Great God your honor" gasped
the Titan, "what sort Of show would
houn' dawg have for existence in

PAID DEAR FOR CIVILIZATION
Bargain in Exchanging Reality

When the later voyagers of Europe
came to the uncharted spaces of these
warm South Pacific seas they found in
the Polynesian group culture which
was beyond the understanding of most
Of them, and which only few fine
souls glimpsed as an astounding rev.
citation of the natural development Of
humanity, and, by contrast, of the de-
pravity of civilization.
They found health and high spirits
Astounding to degree utterly strange
to them, the hardest and most adven-
turous of their white kind. Murder,
mutiny, shipwreck, and desertion
wrote red their reactions to the en-
trancing liberty Of thought and ac-
ton they found here, and the contrast
with their rude, ugly restricted lives
In Europe, America, or on their ships.
If you would be ashamed of what
the pursuit Of profits and proselytism,
hand in hand, has done, read the re-
ports of explorer missionary, captain

had been replaced by modernity and
hypocrisy.
1t was in clothing that the first in
sidious approach was made.
In this valley where l am now the
only foreigner, with my word and ex-

much of the old MarQuesan way and

in decay, and its garden Is but jun
