LONDON. March B.—An interesting let ter from Rudyard Kipling has been pub lished here. Dealing with the Philip pines, he replied to a Shanghai cor ndent who drew his attention to American methods in those islands, as follows: "A!l you say about the Philippines, the conflict t!i<-n> between the Americans, military and civil, and the pigheaded ness of the military and their habit of Betting bull Wi'Sfs to catch rabbits, is im- mensely cheering to mo, b. cause it is pre » clacly whal we are doing in South Africa. You cannot persuade a big country full of prosperity that it does not know ev erything-. When it has lost a few thousand sons and a few thousand millions sterling, it may, If unusually enlightened, begin to understand that It has taken hold of the wrong end of the stick. But that is a great deal to hope for, and probably will not come in our time, lam very glad to learn on your showing that the American seems to* be constitutionally Incapable of admitting • himself wrong and frankly putting him self in the right, because I did not like to think of the Americans as any more log ical than ourselves. Of course, what a new country wants is a high toned despot of unlimited powers and absolute integ rity, but as America and England are both free people, we just muddle along In the expensive, wasteful, but cheerily fashion that attends our needs."

LiONDON, March B.—During the trip of the channel squadron from Berthaven to Queenstown the battleship Camper down, which sank the battleship Victoria in the Mediterranean June 22, 1893, twice narrowly escaped sending the battleship Empress of India to the bottom. There was a dense fog during the whole trip. off Kinsale the Camperdown was almost in collision with the Empress of India, when shouts of "For God's sake, reverse," averted a disaster. The ships made the trip to be present at the time King Edward and Queen Alexandra participated in a number of inspections and ceremonies at Plymouth today.

She was as the rose that blooms beside the wall; she was the ruby that graces the setting marvelously ■wrought; she was the dawn that studs the lawn with pearls. Now there were many suitors for the maiden, and one day her father caused it to be published that he would give her to the man who should deliver the best answer to this question: 'If you were in my place and my daughter were your daughter, what kind of a husband would you choose for her?" The answers were to be spoken in person to Omar on a certain day, and at the time appointed a large number of anxious young men presented them selves. One said: "I should desire that her husband might be brave, honest and kind to her." Another's answer was: "I would have her become the wife of a man of great wealth." A third said: "If I were your daugh ter's father I would not peri'nit her to become the wife of any man who was not of noble birth." Others declared that they would de mand greatness and glory and mildness and patience and strength and beauty if they were choosing a husband for the girl, while the old man sat smiling and nodding as they approached, gave their answers to the question he "had pro pounded, and then stood around wait ing for his decision. At last, when all of the suitors present had been heard, Omar Ibn Al-Fresco turned to a servant, saying: "Summon* my daughter." The servant returned presently and, falling upon his face before the old man. said: "Thy daughter has fled with one who went to tell his love while these were answering thy great question, oh my master." Omar Ibn Al-Fresco looked around up on the agonized young men who con fronted him and, permitting a smile to break over his face at last, cried out: "There be many fools and only one who is wise. She has him. It is well." —<S. E. Kiser in Record-Herald. NOT TOO PARTICULAR. Former Lieut. Gov. John C. Underwood, of Kentucky, told a story at the Cana dian society dinner at the Arkwright club Tuesday night about a negro in his employ who was married four or five times, every time receiving as a gift $5 from his employer. The sixth time the servant appeared Mr. Underwood said "This thing has gone too far, Sam; this time you have got to get married in the regular form. I will get you a license from the county olerk which will cost $1.50, which sum I will deduct from thj $5 I am going to give you." Sam demurred, but finally consented to have the license procured. He came to Mr. Underwood's house in the evening and when the certificate was read to h'm it contained the name "Mary Ann Jones," the name of a woman to whom Sam had been paying attention. "Land's sakes, marser, Mary Ann Jones ain't de woman. It's Sarah Jen kins I wants to marry." Col. Underwood replied that he woultt arrange it all right and would take out another license, costing $1.50, which sum he^ would deduct also from the $5. cr "This Is getting too expensive," cried Sam.

Buffalo is tossing midwinter bouquets at George Tallyrand Stallings, and prom ises to switch to cabbages unless he rounds up a winner. Thielman, the Manhattan college pitch er, recently signed by New York, is de scribed as being of the intelligent class of ball players. He has just attained his majority, is 5 feet 10 inches and weighs 180 pounds. George Rohe, the Cincinnati boy who played with Baltimore and Minneapolis last season, has signed a contract to play with St. Josegh during the com ing season. The players of the Boston National league team will begin training at Thom asville, Ga., on Monday, March 24, leav ing there a week later to play exhibition games. They are scheduled at Atlanta, Ga., on April 4 and 5. Willie Keeler says that kicking is an important element in the game." He says that it gets certain persons sore among the spectators, and when you get them sore they are Interested. Capt. Keeler, the Brooklynite, will coach the Harvard college squad- in base running, batting and other depart ments. Cy Young will have charge of the pitching staff. George Tebeau, Louisville's new base ball magnate, has more trouble. He had secured the new site at Seventh and Kentucky streets at steep rates, when several property owners in the vicinity brought suits to prevent the establish ment of a "baseball park there, claiming it was a nuisance. The case will be con tested shortly. Jack Barry has signed with the Phila delphia National League club. He will be asked to fill Delehanty's shoes, some thing not so difficult now as it would have been a few years ago, when Del was at his best. It is estimated that the slugger is going back fast.-' Norman Elberfeld has wintered at Al bion View, Term., and in a letter to Frank Dwyer he says: "I've chopped, enough wood this winter to burn down your old town. I ought to bat over .SCO after the work I've done here." Lou Walters says he now has ' the Torre Haute team complete with the ex ception of one man. ''The lineup is ex actly the same as last season, and they expect to do great things. The Chat tanooga team will open the practice sea son, April 5. i; ■ ? ' A German once referred to Keeler as the "champion knocker of der league." He was trying to tell a friend in stage whispers what a batter Keeler was, but the Brooklyn smasher objects to the title. '>' ■• ." G. H. Somers says that Cleveland is in the American league to stay, and, fur thermore, that the league-will have no ten-club circuit. He thinks the idea of Cincinnati taking the place of Cleveland is a lovely pipe and maintains that two eight-club leagues form the ideal base ball conditions. Jack Doyle has again drifted back to the New York National league team. This is the third time he has drifted away, only to return. It is not known what position he will play. Perhaps he will be behind the bat again. Chairs will replace the benches which have been in use in the San Francisco grandstand. The stands at Oakland, Sacramento and Dos Angeles will be en larged to accommodate "the crowds. The sport seems to be at its zenith on the co a.st. Waller "Wilmot is after the Cincinnati ■surplus, although it would be a pretty hard matter just now for Manager Mc- Phee to name his chosen ones, and he will not reject anybody until he counts noses a couple of times. Pat Tebeau says: "It helps a whole lot to be fast on your feet, but a sprint er who can negotiate 100 yards In 10 flat would not necessarily be able to steal as many bases as the top-notchers. They have to know how to get a lc|^ off the bag. how to hit the dirt and how to evade the infielder." Hugh Duffy has been heard from again. This time tt is with a grievance against Ban Johnson and the owners of the Boston American league club. He claims to have been promised the business man agement and privileges of the Boston club, and to have refused a number of offers on the strength of that promise. Now the Boston officials have changed thr-it minds, and Hughey Is tellying his troubles to the baseball fans of the Hub. Manager Watkins says that the "fans' roost." at Washington "park, will be fitted up for occupancy this year. It is below the grandstand, and is for" those fans who are "clear to the bad" over the game. The roost will accommodate about 200 spectators. There was no use for it last season, but It is thought that the crowds will be large enough this sea son to justify the placing of a refresh ment room In this section. George Tebeau h;ad trouble at Louis ville in locating his park. The ministers of the town had both hands in his hair but they couldn't touch him, and he finally won out. The trouble was caused by his insisting on locating the park within a block of a. church, and the congregation objected to having the game in such close proximity to tha place of worship. Boston Policeman Made Grant flurry Dick Grant, the famous Harvard dis tance runnier, can find more trouble in a day than the ordinary mortal with diligent search can round-up in a year. He has been thumped into insensibility by footpads to whom, he offered a rougn and tumble fight. His encounter with, the Harvard faculty in a difference of opin ion as to fee in the medical course was scarcely less strenuous, and, as usual, Richard got the worst of the fight. Just now he is in conflict with the Bos ton police authorities, and his brother Alex, who is at Perm, is authority for tne statement that the city of beaneaters will be taken into court to settle for damages inflicted upon the Harvard cham pion's countenance by a hasty sergeant of police. It was after an athletic meet in Bos ton. Grant was standing on the side v/alk looking for a car to Harvard bquaxa whe.i a dusty Knight of the Road accosted him with a request for the price of a night's lodarfpjg. Dick gener ously tendered him a quarter. The tramp was chesty, however, and complained that this would not house him lor tha n'ght. "Won't it," said Grant. "Well, you just come with me and I'll show you." He walked along with the hobo until a stalwart guardian of Boston's peace came in sight. "Can you direct me to a cheap lodging house," asked Grant. "Who the dickens are you? 1' quoth tha arm of the law. "I'm Dick Grant, of Harvard," replied the champion of the cimfcrpath - "Yes you are!" scoffed "Hie policeman. Now you just take ir&- advice and move on, or you'll get to a free kxlgiri' house in a hurry." j«- i f-' " ' This roused Grant'a!

This was too much for the irascible Richard, and he proceeded to tell the sergeant just what he thought of him. He did not get far, however, as that offi cial leaped over the rail and landed with right and left on the college athlete's jaw. . » ■ The honor" of the force vindicated. Grant was led In a dangerous condition to a cell, all requests to be allowed to seek bail having been refused. The crimson athlete was released in the morning and his friends in Boston, when they learned the story, were in. dignant. It is said that a prominent lawyer has offered his services and the case will be pushed to the utmost.

Yard 7C A BIRD'S FLYING M.YCIIIXEKY. Since man's ingenuity has made air ship building not only a possibility ut a probability, with marKed achievements promised in the very near future, more has been thought of ana learned about the flight feathers of birds th;m ever be fore. Man has finally come to see that the close and interesting study of tiie in habitants of the atmospberic kingdom is essential to progress in this new mode of navigation. How birds fly has always been a subject the naturalist has lovtd to discuss^ but the recent bent of man's inventive mind hfts brought it nearer to earth, so to speak, than ail the text books ever published. Its interest Is therefore greatly enhanced, hence to some description we will go. The long quill feathers of a bird's wing shows' the greatest resistance pos sible with extreme lightness. The whole framework of the main quill is light and strong, a hollow, horny U;be mat is elas tic. But really the most wonderful parts of the feather are the small, hair-iike veins which start from each side of the quill and form the part which gives the bird th<e power of flight. Viewed by the naked eye, they appear almosU HKe threads, but under the microscope the real formation is seen.

This overlapping can be seen by tak ing a bird's wing and spreading it wide. The longer veins of each quil feather over the shorter ones of the next quill give it a tremendous resistance In com parison to its weight. In just this same way are the veins' small barbs made (to overlap, the longer ones cr. the shorter ones to give great strength. Every lady who has rumpled a quill in her hat has experienced much diffi culty in trying to give it its normal po sition. No matter how carefully it 19 pulled and worked. It is impossible to bring it to just the same smoothness again. This is caused by the i> overlapping of these small barbs, which again bear small hooks to hold th>-m firmly in place, making the whole feather a perfect web. These every day things which a cheap miscroscope reveals make the possession of one a great help and inspiration to the child, who soon learns to bring things which its flders take for granted to a test by magnifying. Thus they learn for themselves. Books are good things for the student of nature to have, but a miscrosope teaches the lesgona first hand, and such lessons are always remembered while those from books are often lost — Hartford Times. 1 WWTS TO FIGHT O'itltlF.V Jack O'Hrit-n E*MtS 3J5100 Forfeit to M«-«-t < till ill |»i (i 11.
