Teacher's Boast. A teachers' meeting was in progress and It was decided that the more difficult subjects should come in the morniim. and those that required less application later in the day. History Mas last on the list, and Miss Wheeler, the young teacher, protested. "But it certainly is easier than science or mathematics," the principal Insisted. "As I teach it," replied the young teacher, "no subject could bo more difficult and confusing." Lippincotts Magazine.
Vancouver, B. C Every year a number of whaling ships go out from British Columbia ports to engage in hunting the monster mammals to bo found in large numbers along the North Pacific coast. The changed conditions in the whale fishing business and the style and equipment of
the craft employed in the industry, as compared with those of a few generations ago, are of special interest to people who follow the career of those who pursue this peculiar business. Some of the whale fishing boats were overhauled in the Vancouver docks recently for the season's run, and it is interesting to note that the bottoms of the crau are painted green instead of red, as was formerly the custom. This is to prevent the whales from seeing so plainly the approach of the ship, as they see rod paint under the water, and for that reason all the whalers now have green underworks. In general appearance the whaler is a naked, uelv craft. The bows flare
high lo give room for a gun platform, and the stern is cut away so that It rides low, giving the screw a deep drive. The housework is iron, with a narrow navigating platform and a little steering box on the top of the fore end of the house. The gun is the most interesting feature of these whalers. It is a short-tubed cannon on swivel bearings and discharged with a Krupp firing screw. It is carried on a long gun platform on the fihin's bow. and is oointed with a
wooden hand stock. The platform is rigged with grips for the gunners feet in a heavy sea. The gun is loaded with an iron crow, pointed with a thin-shaped time shell, and with four hinged barbs fastened to the Ehaft with rope yarn. When the harpoon is fired into the whale the fastenings are released, the barbs open and the shell explodes; the shaft of the harpoon is slotted and a ring runs in the slot; from the ring a wire line is coiled in a case on the plat
form and extends to a winch near the gun carriage. The winch is used to pay out and reel in the line when tho whale has been harpooned and it is fighting for its life. When the mammal is dead it is drawn alongside the ship by reeling In the wire cable. Air is then pumped Into the whale through a hose with a hollow lance nozzle which is attached to the engine of the ship. The air causes the mammal to float high out of the water and renders it easy to tow. Some nine or ten of these whal
ing ships cruise this coast each sea- j son. Some of the whales found in the North Pacific waters weish as much ! as 90 tons. None of the flesh is used j for food, althoueh it is said to be !

Croquet Revival Has Set In in the Capital City
No Menace in Sanatorium. Dr. Edward I Trudeau. who built the first tuberculosis sanatorium in the United States In 1885. says: "When I bought the first land on which the Adirondack Cottage sanatorium is built. I paid $23 an acre for it. but the price was then thought absurdly hich. My last purchase of five acres cost me $5.000. To my knowl edge, there has never been an employe who came to the sanatorium in sound health who developed tuberculosis while there; and a sanatorium can no more endanger the health of the neighborhood in which it is built, even if the residences are at its very gates, than it could if it were placed on top of a high mountain miles away from habitation."

sponsorship of Senator Cummins of Iowa, Mrs. Champ Clark and other
men and women of distinction in public life a croquet revival has set in in Washington. Croquet is a game so
old that its origin is obscure, liio most of the games that men play, It was probably a derivative or revision of an older game which was also the derivative of an older game, etc and which has itself undergone considerable alteration during its present general form. No doubt in the
centuries to come it will undergo such changes of form and name that remote posterity may have to turn to antiquarian research to trace it to There is a kinship between all games
that are played with balls and sticks or balls and clubs, and their blood-lines run together at time so deep in the depths of the past that no chronicles. Intelligible to us, survive. There is a strong relationship between polo, croquet, billiards, bowles, cricket, hockey, tennis and baseball, and between these and other games which remain to us only as mere names if we could but securely and certainly trace that relationship. Croquet in nearly its present form seems to have been introduced into England from Ireland in 1856, and it seems to have been introduced into Ireland from southern France in 1852. In that year it was played on the lawn of Lord Lonsdale, and the story runs that it was played there and then under the auspices of the eldest daughter cf Sir Edmund Maenaghten, who had learned it during a residence in France. It came rapidly into favor as a pastime in England, and was strongly reminiscent of a game of balls, mallets, hoops, or wickets, and pegs, called "pall mall," from the French paillemaille, which was a popular game in England during the years ot the reigning Stuarts.

Vice-President Marshall Hobnobs With Squirrels THE fact that the Vice-President and Mrs. Marshall live in a hotel precludes any possibility of their introducing a dog or a kitten into the even tenor of their family life, although the vice-president takes the keenest personal interest In the dogs of his friends.
"I have to hobnob with the squirrels," he said, "and those over here in the park are highly indignant if I am slow about finding the peanuts or the popcorn which I always take to them." The vice-president is a familiar figure in Iafayette square, where he Is seen going in and out among the trees of the park, coaxing the squirrels to come down for a peanut, or

Yet it is not unusual to hear "Bryan's lions' talked about. The "Bryan Hons" are made of stone and were brought from Japan. They are on either side of the entrance to Calumet place, and one lion has his mouth wide open, while the other s is tightly closed.

UNION MIGHT BE POSTPONED Matter-of-Fact Serelda's Two Good Reasons for Hesitating About Setting the Day.
HE Secretary of the Treasury and Mrs. McAdoo have a handsome collie, and little Miss Sallie McAdoo has a small dog named Fifi which is the
delight of her life and the avowed nuisance of the family.
The son of the Secretary and Mrs.
Lane is the proud possessor or a splendid English bull named Jack, and the younger sons of the Secretary of the Navy and Mrs. Daniels have had all the animals and various kinds of pets that a family of boys accumulate, the most conspicuous of which were some chickens: most satisfactory was a nice, common snake, which served its day and generation and wan finally skinned, and the ones longest
remembered were some tadpoles, which were put in the usual fruit jar and neglected. Mrs. Houston, wife of the secretary of agriculture, is devoted to horses. and expressed her great delight in having them when she came to Washington. "I have been accustomed to horses all of my life." she said, "and greatly missed them in St. I.ouis. It is a perfect joy to drive around behind them again!" The Secretary of Agriculture and Mrs. Houston were friends and neighbors of the Postmaster Creneral and Mrs. Rurleson when they all lived In Austin, Texas, and their devotion to horses is the same. The Misses Burleson are both accomplished horsewomen.
The Blanks maid of all work was a practical young woman of about twenty-seven years. One day wThen her mistress was making some plans for the future the matter-of-fact Serelda said: "I don't know, ma'am. It might be that I won t be with you much longer, an' then mebbe I will. I ain't sure yet."
Knowing that a vounp man
called a good many times to see Serelda. her mistress said: Are you thinking of getting married. Serelda?" Without the least show of embarrassment or enthusiasm Serelda said: Well, yes, to tell the truth, I am. Then again I don't know if I will. I've got a good place here with good pay, and he's such a fool mebbe I'll stay 00 with you!"

That Benjamin Vance, prospector, hose body was found in a gully at the baae of a 500foot cliff, near Palo Rito pass, was killed after locating a rich mineral vein, is the belief of S. J.

Inasmuch as it would have created a great commotion to get him out, and because he was a perfectly quiet, wellbehaved guest and apparently deeply Interested in the business before the senate, he was allowed to stay until adjournment. If an owl ever before visited either of the legislative bodies of the United States, it is not recorded in
history, so that the one who sat in the senate gallery the other day. blinking confidentially and wisely at the vice-president, established a precedent which other wise old owls may follow. ' And he d'dn't hoot at us once!" exclaimed one of the members of that distinguished body in mock surprise It is quite time for for the ornithologist to discover the fine, psychological reason that attracts owls to politics. No sooner had the excitement of the owl's presence in the senate subsided than another owl was detected in the act of breaking into the White House. He was on the sfli of one of the west windows of the private dining room, evidently puzzled to find it impossible to strut through the screen, although he tried it a&ain and again after some one insisted on driving him
