1000 Ice Tins
For Valley In
Big Shipment

SAN DIEGO, May 2S.--Two
thousand ice tins for Imperial coun-
ty were part of the cargo of
freight unloaded recently by the
steamer Tiger of the Williams
Steamship Co. at the local dock
after an uneventful trip from the
Atlantic coast
The tins are consigned to refriger-
ator plants in the valley and will
be used in making ice for icing the
valleys big cantaloupe crop which
is just starting to move.
Included in the freight unloadcd
for San Diego was a quantity of
general merchandise and pig iron.
The Tiger is one of the largest
freight steamers to dock at the
local port, and was chartered by
the Williams company from the
Standard Oil Co. when the Williams
people found their fleet was too
small to handle all cargo offerings.
With the charter of the Tiger the
company announced Il fortnightlv
service to San Diego.

T. RS Three Speeches

Sir William Reach Thomas, English
war correspondent, in his book, "A
Traveller in News" tells the following
snecdOte about Colonel Roosevelt,
whom he met in the United States:
whether or no he possessed a great
brain may be debated, but l never met
a man who had so much control over
his mental processes. A friend told
me that he had heard him address a
crowd in the open air on a windy day.
Only those toward whom he turned
could catch what he said; so he spoke
three speeches-One to those on the
left, one to the center, one to the
right. The three speeches were differ
ent and were given in alternate sen
tences; but he managed the triple feat
without confusion, without pausing for
a word or thought.

Shoe Carries a Load

Statistlcians and Investigators have
combined to determine the strain and
wear on shoes used by a man during
the day, and their Investigations
brought out the fact that a man Of
80 pounds, in ordinary activities, puts
weight each day on his shoes
amounting to $4,000 tons. The shoes
must withstand that terrible pounding
and strain and give service for many
months to be satisfactory. The man
Of 200 pounds would put ON his foot
wear a strain and load one-third
greater than the figures given, but the
man of $50 and over would not in
crease the load prOpOrtiOnately to the
increase in weight, because it is a
dead pull, and less pounding, the
heavyweight being less active than the
lightweight men.-OhiO State Journal.

Had Little Fear of
BOa'S Hugging PoUers

Among the large collection of jungle
creatures brought to New York by the
Beebe expedition from British Guiana
was what is described as the most iri-
descent tropical snake ever seen in
this latitude.
The snake, which will find a home
in the Geological museum, is over
seven feet long, and was captured by
the ladies of the expedition, Miss Ruth
Rose, the historian; Miss Isabel Coop
er, the artist, and Mrs. John Teevan.
Miss Rose, in describing the capture,
said that the male members of the
party, including Sergte Chetyrkin,
archeOlOgist, and Mr.. Teevan, were
away in the depths of the jungle while
the young women were in a subcamp
with a group of native women and
children. The welkin was suddenly
split with feminine screams and the
white ladies boldly ran to the scene
of the hullabalOO. Native women of
British Guiana do not know a poison
Gus snake from the harmless kind, and
they had never seen a scintillating
rainbow boa before. That was what
they were screaming about.
Under the leadership of Miss Rose
the ladies closed in on the snake,
whose dazzling beauty, Miss Rose in
timated, seemed intended as a prOtec-
tive COlOratiOn to blind its foes. The
standard way to capture a big snake
is to grab it by the back of the neck.
and if you are an ordinary lady to call
for male help. OrnithOlogiCal ladies
never think of calling for help.
Exactly which one grabbed the back
of the bOas neck first none of the
grabbers could tell. But all got firm
grips somewhere on the marvellous
snakes squirming length and held on.
In an instant there was a great show
of millinery mixed with prismatic boa
hues resembling a May pole celebra-
tiOn gone mad.
OF course, the ladies said later, they
did not fear to be hugged by the boa
or any beau, because he was hardly
strong enough to crush ones bones
and they were determined to capture
him alive just to show the men thai
they were not the whole jungle shoot
ing match. Finally, to the Joy of the
startled native women, the boa sur
rendered and consented to be coiIeC
up in bOX.-MOntreal Family Herald

To Clean FIotper Yaser

Flower vases that have become
stained from constant use may be
cleaned just as water bottles are. Put
potato parings into the vase with wa
ter enough to cover the stains and
leave them overnight. A cleaning pad
may be made by cutting a groove
around a long stick near one end and
tying bit Of cloth securely to it.
The cloth should be doubled up so that
it makes a round ball-llke covering
for the end. With this all sorts Of
ugly stains may be reached that would
otherwise be inaccessible.

Falsehood in FIattery

In order that all men may be taught
to speak the truth, it is necessary that
all likewise should learn to hear it !;
for no species OF falsehOOd Is more
frequent than fiattery, to which the
coward is betrayed by fear, the de-
pendent by interest, and the friend by
tenderness. Those who are neither
servile nor timOrOus are yet desirous
to bestOw pleasure; and while unjust
demands of praise continue to be
made. there will always be some whom
hope, fear, or kindness will dispose to
pay them.-Samuel johnson.
