he looks upon the spar buoy as an In-

valuable guide.

In the government inventories they are listed as ’•slicks," although they are sometimes sixty feet long. They nre anchored in the bed of a river or harbor channel, their "up ends" painted in such a way ns to indicate to the observer the formation "f the bottom On the margin of government charts explanatory notes tell one that vessels approaching a harbor from the sen should leave red buoys with even numbers on the right and black, with odd numbers on the left side of channels. Black and white sTrlpcd buoys, the stripes running perpendicularly, mean an obstruction In the channel, with room to get hy on either side. If balls or cages ornament the "up ends” it mentis a turning point, the color and number indicating the course. These sticks arc put down with heavy iron anchors and sometimes groat stone weights. <>co would suppose that so fixed they never could get away, bill they do, and it is a jolt to find them. Ice flues break their cables and some times crush the sticks; storms pull th in loose, and ships In the fog or darkness foul them and tear them from their hold on the bottom. Not Infrequently slops use them as moorings, although this is forbidden. There are Instances where the anchors of a spar buoy have been secure enough to hold against ice pressure and In a narrow channel cause a dangerous jam. But such cases nre few, for when this happens the weight of the ice usually becomes so great ns to force the buoy under, and the pack slides on. If the he pack gets under tho buoy so as to lift it there is only one result the parting of the cable. Then off starts the spar upon a journey maybe of thousands of miles, perhaps of only one or two. It may fetch up on the nearest shore, and It may drift to the coast of Europe or into the southern seas. On the Irish coast today Is one which traveled there in six weeks from New York harbor. It was presented to the British government by the Unit ed States and now floats off the coast on which It stopped after Its long At-

lantic journey.

If It Is a long chase to find the stray buoys it is even a ntbro difficult task to recover the anchors left behind by tho fugitive spars. Tenders that sail out of the harbor have a deal T and tackle rigged In front of (he pilot bouse, with a donkey engine to lift and pull The location of every buoy Is marked on the charts to a degree, so il is not diffi cult to find the desired position. The serious business is dragging for the anchor and after grappling with It to hoist It aboard ship. Here the donkey engine comes Into play. Another hazard Is to pull a spar buoy aboard. If a sea happens to be running the captain of the tender has to use extreme care. Should a Mg roller got tinder him and suddenly tighten the lifting chains either they would give wny or the weight would come up too fast, the crew In cither case being placed In jeopardy of their lives. But the risk these men run Is all In the day’s work. To them a Job In a seaway on a lee shore is regarded ns no more monotonous task than repainting a row of buoys on land —New York

The Brevity of Ballarat. It was In Ballarat that Mark Twain found the local language so puzzling at first, the good people of the place deeming life too short to dawdle In their talk. The mayor called on tho American humorist and laconically said "K’m.” Then when Mark Twain gave him a cigar he simply said "Q.” Subsequent inquiry revealed that these terms were Ballarntese for “welcome" and "thank you.”—London Chronicle.
