First Sailing Of Columbus

Columbus was standing on the deck flaming
rope fell from mast, setting fire to his cloak.
He did not lose his presence of mind however,
but tore the garment from him and dived over
board. Fortunately an was floating close
by, and with the assistance of this he struck
out for the coast of Africa, only short dis
tance away. He succeeded in gaining it, for he
was a strong swimmer.
Columbus, who was born in Genoa about
1435 or 1885, thought it would be possible to
reach Asia by sailing westward. He had hard
time convincing any one that this was possible,
but finally. with the assistance of Queen Isabella
OF Spain, he was provided with three ships,
known as caravels. Then he had trouble In
securing crew, for nobody wanted to under
take such an uncertain voyage. Finally every
thing was in readiness, and on August g. 1892,
he sailed After an eventful voyage he discov-
cred the present island Of San Salvador on
October IL, 1892.

Male Fish Tends Young

T HE stickleback fish found commonly along
] the East Coast Of the United States, is
fish which takes its paternity seriously The
fish. usually found in brackish water, varies in
size up to about inches and has spines along
its back numbering from to Is
The thing which makes the suckleback un-
usual is the fact that the male builds nest
and assumes all the responsibility for the
raising of the young the eggs are laid.
The nest is cylindrical and is made of twigs
and such matter, which are woven together and
attached to some sub-su-face anchorage such
as snag. While the nest is in process of being
constructed, the fish enters it from time to
time and by rotating it manages to keep the
form cylindrical. 1t remains open at both ends
SO that water can pass constantly through it.
Once the nest is constructed, the male awaits
the pleasure of the female, which enters the nest
and lays her eggs. Several may the same
nest, building up layer after layer of eggs
The male fish stands guard over the nest
from that time until the eggs are not only
Matched, but until the small fish are of suf-
hcient size to take care of themselves

Fire Romance PASSING

THE passing of the steam fire engine brings
the fire engine into the third stage of its
mechanical development. In early days of fire
engines the power for the pumping was sup
piled by men who in spirit of rivalry usually
endeavored to outdo the engine next in line
ahead of them. As a usual thing, the old
hand pumps were constructed with force
pump which was worked by four men, two on
either side much as the hand car of the railroad
propelled Each truck had a cistern in
which water was pumped by another engine if
the source of water supply too far to be
reached by one engine
The regular system was to put two more
bumpers in line. each with hose reaching
ahead into the cistern of the next engine Once
they were all hooked up and ready to go the
fight was on. More and more furiously the
men pumped, each with the idea of flooding
the cistern of the pumper ahead and also
deavoring to keep the pumper in behind from
flooding their own cistern Once cistern was
flooded. it was usual to stop and cheer regard
less of the fate of the building which might be
burning.
The hand-pumper was replaced in time by
the steam pump which consisted of q vertical
boiler which required the services of stoker
and an engineer to keep up steam. These
gines. each with its trailing hose cart used to
speed through the streets drawn by husky
horses spurred on by the shrek Of the engine
whistle while the heart of any fire fan was
stirred to the limit the black smoke and
sparks belched from the boiler as the two or
three horse team clattered mady down the
street
The need for speed, however together with
the automobile finally substituted the motor
for the horse as a means Of transporting the
boiler from the fire house to the scene of the
fire. The autopumper, however has spelled the
doom Of the engine, and with the passing of the
DID, much of the romance of fire fighting of
the old volunteer and later paid department
eras has passed. Running with the fire~trucks,
nowadays. is beyond the possibilities of even the
widest fan"
