ENLISTING IN THE NAVY

‘When our balloon that sailed from Bt. Louis came down in Delaware, and I had bid good-by to the twor men & whom I sailed with, and they had paid%e good money for my services and keeping them awake, I thought of that fleet we had passed over at Fortress Monroe, the beautiful white battle: ships; and I was afraid I could not get there before it sailed, and secure my berth, as I had made up.my mind to zo with it around the horn, and help fight Japan or mosquitoes, or any old thing that came in the way, so 1 took the first train to Fortress Monroe, and found that the whole population of several near-by states were go- - lng too, as the president was going 1o review the fleet before -it sailed. The next day I was at the hotel at Old Point and with hundreds of other ~ people took a launch and went out among the battleships. Everybody was welcome to go aboard the ships, ~and we visited several of them and were shown all over the vessels by the uniformed packs. Gee, but a battleship is like a sky scraper on water, and you can go from the roof clear down half a mile below the water line, and it is like a.combi- - nation of an engine manufactory, a boiler plant,’'a coal yard, a wholesale grocery, a packing house, a blacksmith shop, a department store, a ho"tel, a powder mill, a suburban trolley Hne, and a bargain sale of blankets, a state fair and a military encampment, and a parade gx:ouﬂ, a county jail and an apartment house, with rooms to let on the -&uropean plan and all of it in an iron coffin, liable to go‘ito the bottom any minute, if the air tanks are punctured. Gee, but I was almost afraid to be down cellar in a battleship without any life preserver, and when I went up on deck, where I could ’jump\errboard if she began to sink, there, away on top of the whole old cook stove, were guns so big that it seemed if one got to moving around on deck it would tip the ship over. It seemed 0 me like boring a hole in a flat iron and crawling in, and being put in a bath tub, or like rigging up a coal stove with paddles and outriggers, and paddling out in a marsh duck shoeting. e . ' The first hour I was investigating the mechanism of a battleship and "was scared silly for fear she ‘would get ready to sink, and as I looked at the iron everywhere, which I had been ,taught in school would sink so quick it would make your head swim, I wondared what my nation could be thinking of to build ships of iron and depend on wind to keep them on top of the water, and I thought it would be just as safe to cover an iron railroad

INTERNATIONAL HENS

The advantages that people who live exactly on the line between two countries have in escaping the customs end other regulations of both countiles have often been recounted. Frobably the most picturesque instance of this kind of evasion occurred fu the town of Nogales, which lies exeotly on the boundary between Mexico and Arizoma. : On the United States side of the jine in this town eggs were at one

me back and forth through that 40 foot gun to swab it out, and when [ came out alive they laughed and were going to tie a bag of shot to my feet andlet me off a plank over the side to p4actice on a burial at sea, but I yelled for help and a cross looking man came along and pardoned me, and told the fellows to take me to his cabin and wash the powder off my face, and hold-me until he could have a talk with me. When they had scoured me with a piece of brick and some yellow laundry soap, the man came into the cabin, and the boys who hadhazed me said he was Admiral Evans, and I remembered him cause once when he was in the light house service he entertained ‘pa and me on his light house tender, and held me on his lap at the New Orleans Mardi Gras, and I said: “Hello, Mr. Evans, don't you remember little Hennery? I am Peck’s Bad Boy,” and he remembered me, and said: ‘“What'n’ell you doing here?”’ and I told him I knew what he was up against, going around the horn, and to San Francisco and Japan and the Philippines, and that I wanted to go along on his ship as a mascotl, 6r a waiter or anything, and he &aid he didn’t know, but I would be a good mascot, as last trip they had a goat and a monkey for mascots, and I had a combination of both, and if he was going to make a trip ' to hades, or any climate hotter than the straits of Magellan, he thought I would be all right. - ' He asked me what I could do and I told him there was nothing that T couldn't do if properly encouraged, anything, from flying a flag of truce from the fighting top, to riding up in the ammunition elevatorr with 500 pounds of dynamite, to acting as the propeller to a Whitehead torpedo. - We talked it over for an hour and he asked about Pa, and then he said he would think it over, and he gave ’me a ticket with a number on, and told me to be on the front porch tof the Hotel Chamberlaine at nine | o’clock the second morning after, and | if a steam launch. from the Connecti- { cut landed there and gave two whis- | tles, for me to get on board with my ibaggage, and report to himi before the | fleet sailed. I Well, say, this was quick work, and I called a launch and visited the other , vessels, promising to be Johnny on the spot at the appointed hour. l It was a great sight to see the review when the president came along ion the vacht Mayflower and I forgot { all about- the battleships being of liron liable to sink if the wind got out of the tanks, and was mnever so proud in my life as I was when I saw !the jacks climb up on the rigging and

hang on: like monkeys, lined up like they were drilling on deck, and when. the Connecticut began to fire a salute to thé president, out of those great iron sewer pipes, and all the rest of the fleet began to shoot at the air, the noise was so loud that it made your head feel like you do when you take seidlitz powders, and it gallups up your nose, and the smokeless powder made the smoke so thick you couldn’t see anything but the president’s teeth, as he sailed along on his yacht,.and I got so patriotic that the chills went up my back like when you have the grip coming on, and then the smoke cleared away and when a million American flags were flung to the breeze, T began to choke up like you do when you are sick and the callers say, “Well, brace up, boy, you may pull through, but there are a hundred chances against your living till morning,” and the tears rolled down my cheeks, and my throat got full like I had the tonsilitis, and everybody else

Accordingly he put up a long hen house exactly across the boundary line. At the Mexican end he regularly fed his Tens with low-priced Mexican grain.

So we went ashore, and that evening there was a ball at the hotel, and all the officers of the navy were there, and the army, and millions of ladies with clothes on the lower half of them, and talcum powder and black court plaster on the upper half, and the way they danced and waltzed and flirted and et lobsters would make you dizzy, and when Bob Evans walked limping by me, with a 200-pound lady on one arm, and a 90-pound girl on the rheumatiz side of him, I was so full of patriotic fire I couldn’t help saying:

“Hello, Bob, I will be on deck all right,” and he looked at me with an expression on his face that looked as though he had drawn a lobster that had been dead too long, and he marched along with his female procession, and the orchestra struck: up a good-night waltz, and everybody waltzed, and took some drinks, and went home to wait the sailing of the fleet the next day, and I weng to bed with an order to be called at sunrise, so I could be on the porch with my ticket in my hand, ready to jump into the launch when she whistled and sail away “for a frolic or a fight,” and 1 didn’t care which.

No one need be at all surprised if, two years hence, the nations of the world suddenly become a family of ardent skywatchers, for in 1910 the return of a certain periodic comet is promised, one lost to mortal eye since 1835. The recorded apparitions of this celestial object are endowed with a hoary antiquity, since they stretch back over eight centuries of the lives and deeds of puny man. At the date of its recurrence in 1682 it was observed and studied by Edmund Halley, a famous Englisi astronomer agd colleague of the illustrious Newton. After laborious xresearch he reached the conclusion as the }'es'ult of aritpmetical calculations relating to its; perturbations, that the comet was a thing in space identical with the cometary apparatus of 1531 and 1607. He framed a table of the motion of comets L. %n the making of which I have spared no labor that it might come forth perfect as a thing consecrated to posterity, and to last as long as the science of astronomy itself.” ;

By reason of the fact that the comet’s reappearance once again to human vision was predicted by Halley for the end of 1758, or beginning of 1759—“1 dare venture to foretell that it will return again in 1758,” were his words—it is universally and properly known. as Hal]ey’is comet. The author of this grand and novel discovery appertaining to the pedigree and identity of a comet (from which! so much knowledge in cometary as-| tronomy, has since sprung) did n.ot} himself live to_scan the heavens on that memorable Christmas day in 1758 when, true to predicition, the comet appeared, visible to the naked eye, and seen in many lands. _Halley died at Greenwich in 1742 at the ripe age of 86, and was buried at Lee, in Kent. An inscription on his tombstone records that with his dearest wife there reposes by far the chief astronomer of his age, and adds these pregnant words: “That you may know, reader, what kind of, and how great a man he was, read the multifarious writings. with which he has il lustrated, adorned and amplified nearly all the arts and sciences.” The records of history provide us with .a variety of details respecting the a;pparitions of the comet we are led to expect in 1910. In 1066 its appearance was considered to be an omen in the sky presaging England’s conquest by William of Normandy. In 1456 it was a wonderful object, and covered nearly 70 degrees of the heavens, .being visible for a month; moreover, it was for a time circumpolar, so that it could be seen above the northern horizon all night. When it came again in 1531 it found America discovered, printing invented, and the Reformation begun. As we already know it was foreseen for‘its cyclé of 1758. At its last return in 1835 it was first observed at Rome, on August 5, and afterwards was visible to the naked eye throughout October, possessing a tail from 20 degrees to 30 degrees long. It passed within 4,500, 000 miles of the earth. : Regarding the 1910 apparition? Prof. H. C. Wilson of Goodsell observatory, thinks it possible that someone with the aid of a great telescope or a'pho'tographic camera may catch sight of the expected visitor during the winter of 1908-9. That, indeed, we may even begin to search for it this present month. Almost certainly it may be found by September or October, 1909. It is to be noted, however, that it will then be only a small nebula, whatever tail it has being in a position directly bekind it as seen fromthe earth. The wonderful gaseous streamer which we call a comet’s tail increases in luminosity as the comet approaches perihelion—that is to say, the point in its orbital travel when it is nearest the sun. This cometry matter is of varying but enormous length; indeed, we must think of comet’s tails in terms of millions of miles. Donati’s comet of 1858 reached a length of 60 degrees, and swept as a broad curved

Easy to Keep Eggs Fresh.

A Kentuckian Tried the Process and Found It a Success. “There is a way to beat the storage commission merchant and the old hen herself: to have fresh eggs all the time, in fact,” said Marshal Raymond, a lawyer of Paducah, Ky. “This method may be as old as the Chinese—at least I learned it in China when I made a trip through the east more than a year ago. I happened to run into the American consul general at Shanghai while over there and when 1 left he presented me with what he said were eggs. “Although they didn’t look like eggs at all—looked, indeed, more like elongated mud pies with a stone stuffed in them—l faithfully brought. them home, and at last opened one. : “Sure enough, there was an egg ingide, and when it was broken it proved to be entirely fresh, although it may have been in that mud-for a year or more. Well, with that knowledge of bow the Chinamen keep eggs fresh I

plume across the heavens, a superb and impressive - spectacle. Astronomers tell us that the most probable explanation of a comet is that while the head consists of a more or less concehtrate(} swarm of meteors en‘veloped in gas and dust, the tail is a current of gas and Bometimes dust proceeding from the nucleus. What if Mother Earth came into collision with one of these peripatetic objects from out the depths of space? More than 200 years ago Halley pondered over this very possibility. “May the great good God,” said he, “avert \a shock or contact of such great bodies lest this most beautiful order of things be entirely destroyed and reduced into its ancient chaos.” In 1819 (and again in 1861) our orb actually did move through a cometf’s tail. No one, however, experienced the least shiver of apprehension. Notwithstanding this, a quite different state of affairs 'is conceivable, so we are told. Prof., W. H. Pickering of Harvard College observatory, remarks in_this connection that were the earth to strike the nucleus of a large comet, like that for iinstance of 1858 ' (Donati’s), it would be impossible to foretell what might happen; in all likelihood the temperature and shock would be sugch that within several thousand miles of the point of contact there would be a cessation of organized life.

MISSED POINT OF INTEREST. When Howells Failed to See Birthplace of Famous Man. It was fit that on our way to Boston in England we should pause in passing through Cambridge. That was quite as we should have done at home, and I can only wish now that we had paused longer, though every moment. that kept us from Boston would have been a loss. There it was all gain, and all joy, the gay September 24 that we went this divine journey. My companion was that companionable archeologist who had guided ’ny steps in seatrch of the American’ origins in London, and who was now to help me follow the Pilgrim Fathers over the ground 'where they sojourned when they were only the Pilgrim Sons. At divers places on the way, after we left London, he pointed out some scene associated with American saints or heroes. -We traversed the region that George William Curtis’ people came from, hard by Roxburgh, and Eliot’s, the apostle to the Indians; again we skirted the Ralph | Waldo Emerson country, with its big market town of Bishop’s Stortford; and beyond Ely, where we stopped for the cathedral and a lunchecon, not unworthy of it, at the station, he startled me from a pleasant drowse I had fallen into in our railway carriage, with the cry: “There! That is wheére Capt. John Smith was born.” “Where? Where?” I implored too late, looking round the compartment everywhere. “Back where those chickens were.” : That was the nearest I came to seeing one of the most famous Virginian origins.—W. D.

SICK MAN WANTED CHANGE. More Than Willing to Make Transfer - with Physician. 2 A Syracuse business man who, besides being extremely active and ambitious, has much sense of humor, was taken sick with a slight attack of pneumonia. His physician, aware that it would be a task to keep his highstrung patient’ in bed, sought to impress on: him the seriousness of the ailment and the necessity of absolute rest; all of which the sick man listened to in a bored manner. Nevertheless he consented to obey the doo tor.

But this enforced inactivity rankled in him; and each succeeding day. found the patient importuning the medical man attendant to allow him to get out to business. Then, dis+ gusted, he would lie back to cast imprecations at the inexorable - physician. | One morning the physician, after having been up all ‘night on an important case, appeared at his patient’s house at the usual hour. He had hardly stuck his haggard face inside the door, however, before the man in the bed gave him a quick glance and sat up. “Eh? ejaculated the' patient. Then shoving out his hand to grasp the doector’s satchel, he added: " “Doc, I guess you’'d better get into bed here and let me go out with the medicine bag.” .
