Ilis spirit spreads to the squad, to the company, He becomes ouraged and dissatis- fied with the service. Gloom letters are responsible for more than half the desertions.” So it is that the importance of a trooper’s mail is recognized by army. officers far and wide, and at Chicka- mauga the new “bit” is set in motion. y gone so far that stu- ’ training camp are ing daily epistles, even from fair ones they do not know, each carrying a little insertion of joy. The result is general cheerfulness and firm endeay- or throughout the camp. “Write a cheerful letter to your sol- dier,” is the slogan. Largest Gold Dredge.

Several longshoremen were biting | into thick sandwiches of garlie on the water front when there came a prodi- gious thumping on the plank under- neath. The floor of the pier gave forth a hollow sound. One of the longshoremen, the Brook- lyn Eagle testi » swallowed his gar- lie the wrong -way and let out a Polish exclamati¢ Then he bent over and applied his eyes to a crack in the woodwork, At first he could not make out anything in the murk, but at length a pair of green eyes met his horrified gaze, it seemed, to his untutored mind, conclusive evidence of a personal call from the evil one, and when horns! rapped the planking and a long tail swislied the water he went away from there very quickly. With him went the rest of the longshoremen, Up winding Fulton street they sped and around the crooked corner into narrow Poplar strect, where they very | nearly carried the door of the Poplar} street police station off its hinges, They arrived before the desk sergeant all} abreast and told their story, as their knees smote one against another and their hands groped feebly for the desk rail. The desk lieutenant thought at first it was a case of “greenhouse” whisky, but he finally sent a man down to investigate. The patrolman found that the apparition was only a steer which had been thrown into the river and had swum up under the dock. He did not know just what to do and his; police manual gave him no help, Ob- viously he could not loosen the steer’s collar and roll it over a barrel. Nor could he give it an antidote for poison. At last he had a bright thought and called up the dock department, the steer being at a dock and therefore, per se a fit subject for the dock de partment. : The dock department responded—or part of it did—with saws. Then having opened a nice round hole in one of the city’s docks, Its work was done, and ft} sent for the S.P,G. A. The 8. P.C.

Substitute for Copper. The use of soft steel and fron as © partial substitute for copper in the manufacture of decorative metals is heing experimented with in the depart- ment of manual arts at the University of Wisconsin. For years it has been traditional for decora metal products to be made wholly or in large part of copper, brass or some other alloy of copper, The price of copper is now so high, more | than 50 cents a pound, that a substi- tute is needed in decorative metal. The kind of steel and iron required in this kind of work costs at present ; 14 cents a pound, In many respects ; this steel is as good, if not better, than | copper. It works easily, wears as j well, is not discolored or oxidized as | i Qi quickly, and for many uses is even stronger than copper. It lacks the red-gold luster, but can be given aj silver-hued burnish, or can be deco | ed with paints—University of Wiscon- | sin Bulletin, | His Way of Applic The colored laborers who were; patching the street for the street car | company, were discussing the fate of one Henry they had known. | said one, “Henry was | “Yes, \ found with two bottles of whisky on | him last Sunday, and was taken to; court.” The crowd stopped work to listen to the tale.
