Poem Had origin in Actual Life.

Poem Had origin IN Actuai LIE.
The famous poem about the boy who
stood on the burning deck had its
origin in an actual happening which
constitutes a page in llistory
1t was during Napoleon's expedition
to Egypt that England sent Lord Mel
son to capture him and annihilate his
feet. At the battle of Abukir the
French navy wasa crushed and Ma,
poleon was forced to flee, all but four
5of his ships being sunk, burned or cap
tured.
The French admiral had been killed.
And ON the deck Of the flagship stood
her captain, Louis Casabianca, who
then had command of the fleet. He
was wounded and the ship was burn
ing, but he refused TO leave his post
And in spite of commands and en-
treaties, his son, boy of ten, stayed
with him and died with him when the
ship went down, supplying the theme
for that famous epic of child herOism,
"The boy stood on the burning deck"

WITH LAMB SUPPLY
SHORT PRICES FOR
!, STOCK QUOTED HIGH
Crop This Spring Estimated at
10 Per Cent Norrial; Many
Spectators Playing Market.

WASHINGTON d. c., May 20
Reports from the western sheep coun-
try indicate material shortage In the
spring lamb crop. Some estimates,
made by men who have carefully sur
veyed the situation, place the total
lamb production in Montana, Wyom-
ing, Washington, oregon, Idaho. and
Nevada at not more than 10 per cent
of normal crop.
The indicated shortage Is attributed
to three main factors, namely, short
age of ewes. the over age of many
breeding floclis, and the losses of early
spring lambs resulting from this years
cold and backward spring season
The shortage in the visible supply,
q much higher winter lamb and sheep
market than most anyone In the trade
had anticipated, and the recent sharp
upturns in wool prices all served to
create much bullish sentiment In the
markets. Consequently, contracting
for both wool and lambs reached
large dimensions during recent weeks.
A Number of large western operators
we're reported to be securing the
West contracting for new cropp lambs.
Many sales have bcen reported on a
&C to 10c basis, the latter price having
been generally refused In Idaho,
Washington, and oregon.
Money, which was tight last fall and
in the carly winter, now appears
abundant, and large Spectators and
western feeders are buying freely.
This fact, combined with the short
crop, has led many in the trade to be-
