Is here shown was designed especially for a boy who He had no patience, tools or skill. wanted a boat, and one that would go fast. A board with a sail stuck up on it was not to his liking, and so this entirely original affair was produced. Nothing in the boat was of value, except as kindling wood, but the making and sailing cf similar boat3 afforded many an hours entertainment. Each day when the wind was blowing off shore one or more of these boats were set adrift in Long Island sound. Off they would go like catamarans, sometimes at an angle with the wind, but always out of Once in sight, never to return. while one would be adjusted Just right and then it was hard to keep up with it by rowing. It would go so fast. The seas would go over them, but as they had no deck on they would go. It was found after awhile that too Btort a boat would not steer very well. A long boat on the other hand, would keep pointing about right, so that they were made from two to The best way to eight feet long. build the boat was to find a board about four feet long and six or eight inches wide. This was sawed diagonally across the center, and the angle made on each piece was made the bow. These two pieces were held side by side eight Inches apart, and two narrow strips were nailed across bow and stern; an extra piece having a hole in it was nailed on the bow strip and a stick about a foot long was stuck in it for a mast. The best Jap-jane- sharp-sightedne- Jap-janes- tributions to original science. Many papers involving long and elaborate patient laboratory investigations are printed In full in the transactions of the society. The Japanese chemists discuss with a freedom which astonishes the western chemists all the modern ablruse theories bearing upon anatomic theory, the constitution of matter, the theory of dissociation, and so forth. They write powerful dissertations on the views already advanced by such esteemed thinkers as Ostwald, Arrhenius, Kelvia, Thomson, Lodge, Crookes and Ramyas, and have offered valuable criticisms on the methods of systematizing and compiling atomic weights adopted by western chemists. Chemistry, of course, is a powerful weapon in war and there can be little doubt that among other things which have so far contributed to Japanese successes is a sound knowledge of explosives, their composition, action and behavior under a variety of conditions. When there is no longer any need for the implements of battle, and may that scon be, the same subtle insight which is so marked a feature of the Japanese intellect may turn with equal success to the application of science to peace pursuits. Maine Has Queer Serpent To the specter moose of Lobster cow of Machias lake, the moose-hoofeand the Northport sea serpent with teeth like a Virginia fence, Maine has now added the wriggly and bellicose serpent of Gardner's lake, which can stay under water months at a time, swallows molasses jugs and when going full speed gives oft an odor like brimstone. There are several Washington county people, including C. Hollis White of East Machias. the register of probate, who have seen it in times past, says the Bangor correspondent of the Philadelphia Record. An Indian woman, whose sobriety is vouched for by the White Ribboners of the neighborhood, saw It last summer, and there are some old settlers who declare that the critter has been d slosliin round in Gardners lake for the past twenty years. It is described . as being about twenty-fivfeet long with dark green and scaly body and a head much like that of a boa constrictor. It always comes to the surface when there are fishing parties on the lake and evinces a desire to follow all the boats that come out. No man has ever been able to paddle a canoe half as fast as this serpent can swim. This week Francis Dana, a Passama-quoddIndian, saw the reptile and gave chase, but was distanced and Dana is champion canoe man of his tribe. The residents of the locality take little stock in legends, but. as one of them says, When we see a critter like that fastern a tugboat an like a mates fact'ry, we know It, bgosh! e In the Oceans Depths And she who is weeping may dry her If only the sea would open wide. tears.

The hoop will stop, and then roll toward you, passing you if you have given It a strong enough twist. When you have mastered this, as you will at your very first trial, you are ready for a very pretty little pastime. Get one of your friends to provide himself with a hoop, and have a backward race with you. Draw two lines, ten yards, or thirty feet, apart, and standing on one line throw your hoop past the other line, at the same time giving it the backward twist. Your object is to make It roil toward you. to pass you and roll as far behind you as It will.

The main canal, sixty-ninmiles long, is eighty feet wide at the bottom, one hundred and twenty-fou- r feet at the top and carries ten feet of water. The project is being constructed under the Carey act, and comes under the Immediate supervision of the Idaho Statj Land Board. Last fall tbe Land Board authorized the opening of acres of this land to public entry, and notwithstanding the fact that no water would be delivered this year, ail of this land has been absorbed. The State Land Board now authorizes the opening of an additional 100,000 acres at noon, October 20th, at Twin Falls City, and a great rush is expected. Mr. Masqueray, chief of designs of buildings and grounds at the Worlds Fair, St. Louis, has designed a hotel and townsite known as, Twin Falls City, in the heart of these lands, and a $50,000 hotel is now under construction, besides numerous business blocks and residences.

The knees are then drawn up, the arms placed over them, and a stick about four feet long pushed over one arm. under both knees and out again over the other arm. The player can now move ro part of his limbs except his toes. If he is overturned the ends of the stick prevent his falling on his side, but he cannot right himself without aid. Two players trussed in this way, are placed opposite each other in the middle of the room, their toes just touching. The object of each Is to tip his opponent over by means of his toes, and he who first does this is the winner.

When the leader calls out they are all in but three, four or some other small number, the fun becomes more and more exciting until they are all found.
