ADMIRAL CAPPS QUITS JOB Head of Bureau of Construction and Repair Resigns. ‘Washington, July 13.—Washington Lee Capps, captain in the regular naval establishment and rear admiral by virtue of the fact that for nearly seven years he has been head of the bureau of construction and repair, has tendered his resignation to take effect Oct. 1. It has been accepted. Neither the secretary nor Rear Ad- miral Capps would discuss Mr. Capps’ sudden determination to retire from ‘the service, but it is recalled that Ad- miral Capps, before a congressional court last winter, bitterly opposed the plans of Secretary Meyer looking to a reorganization of the navy depart- ment. ; Stole $9,000 in Sixty Days. Chicago, July 13.—Arthur C. Haw- kins, aged thirty-two, cashier of the ‘Wisconsin Lime and Cement company here, is in jail after confessing, the police say, to having robbed his em- ployers of more than $9,000 in sixty days.

After the sermon everybody enjoyed himself socially. There were some big guns there from other parishes, and the parlors bad been done up es- pecially for the evening., There were two lovely new red velvet chairs that the minister- found particularly com- fortable. He complimented the head of the furnishing committee on her thrift and taste. 3 : On’ Friday evening there was an- other meeting in the parlors. The min- ister looked around first thing for those velvet chairs, “What have you done with them, Mrs. Blank?”’ he saidto the head of the committee. % ““Oh,” said she serenmely, “they went back yesterday.

A Figure Trick, Get some one to putidown a row of figures, to add them up and subtract the total, thus: 2 63,214 These figures added together make 16. Subtract this 16 from the original number and you get 63,198. Now ask them to cross out any ome figure, total them up again and tell you the total. Thus, say, they cross out the 6, the total becomes 21, They tell you this, and without looking at the sum you can say the value of the figure which has been crossed out. You do this trick by ‘subtracting the total from the next multiple of 9. “The total,” says your friend, *“is 21.” The nearest multiple of 9 above 21 is 27. You subtract 21 from 27, and that leaves 6. To your friend you say in a dignified tone, “The figure you crossed out was 6. And your wondering friend believes you to be possessed of occult powers. It doesn’t matter what figures are originally put down, the answer al- ‘ways comes correct. The Era of Reptiles. At different epochs during the time known as the secondary period the sur- face“of the earth seems to have been so predominantly peopled with reptile life that it has been called “the age of reptiles.”” The huge iguanodons stalked or leaped about in the wealds of Sussex and Hampshire. Of these iguanodons marvelously complete skel- etons are to be seen (mounted in atti- tudes of life) in the Royal museum of Brussels—a sight in itself sufficient to induce a visit to that capital. Other smaller reptiles browsed on the foliage of the then existing plains and were pursued and preyed upon by fell rep- tilian monsters of various kinds. The sea also swarmed with reptiles (ich- thyosauri) as aquatic as the whales and dolphins of our own day. And not only were the earth and seas thus peo- pled, but there were.flying reptiles of different. . kinds and.sizes,.known as pterodactyls. A Very Old Rule. The oldest mathematic book in the world is believed to be the *“Papyrus Rhind” in the British museum, pro- fessed to have been written by Ahmes, a scribe of King Ra-a-us, about the period between 2000 and 1700 B. C. This “Papyrus Rhind” was translated by Eisenlohr of Leipzig, and it was found to contain a rule for making a square equal in area to'a given circle. It was not put forth as.an original dis- covery, but as the transeript of a treatise 500 years older still, which sends us back to approximately 2500 B. 0., when Egyptian mathematicians solved, or thought they had solved, the problem of squaring the circle. The Dilettante Society. An interesting old organization which formerly existed in London—the Dilet- tante society—originated with certain gentlemen who, having traveled in It- aly, tried to encourage at home what they had enjoyed dbroad. This society of lovers of the fine arts lasted 130 years. Walpole does not seem to have looked upon it with a very favorable eye, for he says, “The nominal qualifi- cation was to have been to Italy; the real one was being drunk.” - Her Earache. “What's the matter |with you this morning, Delia?’ asked Mrs. Wise. “Oh, ma'am,” repliéd the servant girl, “’tis the terrible earache I have tbis mornin’.” “Ah, you should be careful, Delia.
