Marine Oddities.

MOORE than three-auarters OF a
A'A century ago a queer marine In
stitution made it's appearance in Nan
tucket, and bore the name of camel"
These camels were really huge float
ing dry docks for carrying ships over
the bar, where the depth of water
had been gradually decreasing since
1880. Being f1at-bottomed, the camels
could float in water very much shai-
lower than loaded ship required.
They were like two long. large boxes
floating side by side and held to-
gether at the ends by large iron
chains.
The outer sides were almost
straight-up- -and-down. but the inner
sides were curved, making. when the
two sections were drawn together. an
interior basin just the size of the
bottom of a ship. The plan was for
the camels to be separated far enough
to allow the ships to be hauled into
the basin between the two sections.
then to be drawn and held fastened
ship between them, so that the camels
and the ship could then be towed over
the shallow places in the channel to
the wharf.
The use of camels for transporting
ships was no new experiment, for
they were used in Holland as early
as 1858. They were first built by
the Dutch at Amsterdam for the pur-
pose of taking large ships over the
Pampas. passage between two sand
banks in the Zuyder Zee
The Russians also used camels for
taking large ships over the shoals
that were formed at Neva. Camels
were also employed at Venice, and at
each of these places they were han

Birds Tongues.

COME curious data have been gath
- cred with respect to the tongues
Of birds. It is pointed out that many
persons suppose that woodpeckers
use their sharp-pointed tongues as
darts with which to transfix their
prey. 1t is true that the woodpecker,
like the hummingbird, can dart out
its tongue with the greatest rapidity,
and that its mouth is furnished with
an elaborate mechanism for this pur-
pose. yet Investigation shows that
the object of their swift motion Is
only to catch the prey. not to pierce
1t. For the purpose Of holding the
captured victim. the woodpeckers .
tongue Is furnished with a sticky
secretion.
Inasmuch as it possesses the power
Of initiating speech, it is not sur
prising to learn that the parrots
tongue resembles that Of man more
closely than any other birds tongue.
It is not because the parrot IL more
intelligent than many other birds.
but because its tongue is better
suited for articulation than theirs
that 1t is able to amuse us with its
n,imicry.
In some respects the humming-
birds tongue is the most remarkable
Of all 1t Is double nearly from end
to end, 50 that the little creature Is

1t was in the Boca de Lobo that
Fuentes was at length conducted into
the presence of Don @. The brigand
chief was sitting. looking exactly like
a great brooding eagle. beside a fire
of wood at which from time to time
he warmed his hands. for the thin air
struck chill.
AS Fuentes entered he rose and
bowed.
Accept my sympathy. Don Ramon

voice. "It is sad indeed that you will
kill no more bulls"
Fuentes stared.

/ wasted and he also rubs his shoes vs..
pants leg to erase the marks where
people has been standing on him.
And a good many men folds up
their newspaper and puts it in their
pocket because if they left 1t behind
them they's no telling who would
read it,
In the middle of the day as the
you can see their lips move like they
was rehearsing their opening speech
to whoever they have kept waiting
all this time
Going uptown at night. you can tell
a gal that is getting close to her
brightens up and just the opposite
with a man, as he begins to assume
the sour look which he has made up
his mind to wear around the house
evenings.
Sometimes however. a person gets
on q car or a train that amt going
to stop nowheres for long vile and
then it's often necessary to resort to
strategy. Like for inst. I have often
made ladies and gentlemen give me
their seat by standing right up close
to them. stepping on their dogs from
time to time. or lurching over on
them or even kicking them in the
shins in a friendly way. And just the
other night / seen a man win his seat
by even more extreme measures
which took place on a Long Island
r. r. train but person couldn't
hardly employ his methods without
getting himself a good load before
starting home.
THIS gent stood up beside seat
where they was a man and his
wife setting and the wife was on the
aisle and the gent kept swaying and
knocking, against her and finely fell
right in her lap. Both her and her
husband got up and went in the next
car The load had a whole double
seat to himself, and when he finely
got to bed that night he only had to
shut one eye as the other had been
tended to.
So much for the traction problem.
Another big question in N. Y. city is
the schools. as it seems they amt
enough room in them to take care Of
all the kids at once and u OF them
has to go in the morning and the
other \. in the afternoon. I would
leave that as it is only l would fix 1t
so as the male pupils would all go in
the morning and then a person could
get decent size caddies in the after
noon. The way it Is now IL you get
a caddy at all he is bigger than you
are and you don't dast bawl them out
when you miss a approach shot.
Another thing that is going to be q
big thing in N. Y. in the next yrs.
is the proposition to build bridge
