They will, this year, hold, a barbecue and roast a lot of oxen and sheep. A thief in New York set himself to chase and catch a thief.

At the shore we see sailboats run away out into the sound, until they can hardly be seen, and when the clouds come up and it begins to thunder the venturesome amateur who is away out there is the last to start for shelter. He doesnt know enough to know his danger. So it goes each summer, and each sujoimer has. its long string of drowning tragedies for a part of its history. But, as we said before, no one summer does, it up completely, so as to give civilization a fresh chance. A lot of people are drowned for their folly this year who lived through last year, which was just as good a year for drowning, and a lot will live through this year and go out and drown in 1896 as readily as if they were led.

Govt Ilepcct r The recent war between Japan and China has taught the officers of the American navy at least one new thing in the construction of vessels. There will be scarcely any woodwork in the Oregon, that is rapidly nearing completion at the Union Iron works. This is due to the fact that there were more people killed and injured In the naval battles in the orient by flying wooden splinters than by the bullets or exploding shells. Most of the cruisers and battle ships that took part in the war were constructed with steel hulls, and all of them were tpore or Jess protected with heavy armo plates. The interior-fittingand furnishings of the quarters and the deck coverings, however, were of wood. When a shot pierced the hull of a vessel and tore through the wood in the interior of the ship splinters were sent flying in all directions. In most cases the shot passed through the vessel without injuring any of the crew, but the shower of wooden splinters filled the sick, bay and kept the sailmaker sewing up the dead in canvas sacks for burial. On the battleship Oregon practically no wood will be used. All the bulkheads and partitions dividing the rooms in the officers quarters are to be of iron. No wood will be used on the decks, but instead linoleum will be cemented to the Iron deck to prevent slipping. All the doors will be of iron, and all those leading to the decks will be made watertight. vimmM- fl Ilian Missiles in the Eastern War. three-and-sixt- y, CONAN Highest of all in.
