Aeroplaning is another miracle of practical science—another impossibil ity shown to be possible—another drea>m of centuries realized, but real ized in a manner which none but this generation could have understood.

Mate of Codfish Schooner Has Thril ling Experience While Fishing. Struck by the tail of a gigantic whale which smashed hisz dory to kin dling and threw him almo'st 100 feet away into the icy sea, Chief Mate Olaf Wick of the codfish schooner Vega, brings a thrilling story of his escape from death in the far north, a Seattle dispatch to the New York Herald says. His experience, strange as it sounds, is confirmed by many persons who saw the body of the officer hurled through the air and who later picked him up as he lay bruised and uncon scious on the few remaining boards of his shattered dory. The Vega, in command of Capt. Peter Nelson, was lying at anchor in Behring sea and the chief mate was alone in his dory one .calm morning in August, fishing apart from the rest of- the crew. • A monster whale had been observed by the men earlier in the day swimming sportively in the vicinity,- blowing a mistlike stream high into the air, or again coming to the surface and rounding his shining back with a knifelike dorsal fin out of the water/as he played and dove into the glassy sea. Intent on his fishing, the mate had little warning of the weird experience he was to un dergo. “Suddenly I felt /Something under the boat,” he said in relating the tale. “I thought I had struck a rock and Instantly threw the windlass over board so she would not sink the boat. Hardly was it over the side when I was lifted high in the air as the whale dove and struck the boat with his tail. I went up as though a mine had ex ploded beneath my feet. Around me were flying bits of wood and tackle from the boat. “I cannot tell how far I was thrown, but it must have been about ninety feet from the point where the dory was stationed. I lost consciousness for a time, I think, for I remember the shock of striking the cold water, which seemed to clear my head and caused me to strike out with arms and legs to keep afloat.” The mate swam back to the dory, which still held a few bottom boards, and here he was picked up by the second mate. None of Wick’s bones were broken by the mishap, but his body was a mass of bruises and he was so lame he; could hardly move for a couple of days. ABBEY OF SOLESMES. Treasures of Centuries with Ancient House to Be Sold. One of the most famous of the relig- ibus houses in France is about to be sold. It is the Benedictine Abbey oi Splesmes, and what makes the sale regrettable is that the treasures col lected with such care during so many ages are to be dispersed in the literal sense, for they are to be sold sepa- rateiy. The abbey , is a magnificent feudal dwelling full of artistic won- ders. It is of the pure style of the thirteenth century, situated about a mile and a quarter from the little town of Sarthe. There are sixty hec tares of- land belonging to the priory, a hectare being two acres one rood thirty-four perches, upon which the monks have bestowed all their energy Below flows the listless Sarthe, and in the distance can be seen the little tower of Sable parish church, pointing to the skies. Within the precincts the first objects to note is the chapel, dat ing from and for the most part of the thirteenth century, completed in the sixteenth and seventeenth. The ma jestic arches are above, in sonibei niches are priceless sculptures, and .the windows, a Paris contemporary tells us, says the London G-ldbe, musl be seen to form an idea of their beau- ty The statuary is said td form some of the finest specimens of the renais- sance period. The oldest and finest piece is “Mise au Tombeau,” attrib uted to Fiegole. Another, piece is “La Sepulture de la Vierge,” about the end of the sixteenth century, a purely French conception. Among the othei artistic triumphs showered upon the visitor are “Le Trepassement de Notre Dame,” “Le Triomphe de Marie” anc “Jesus parmd les Docteurs.” Cardboard Takes Qualities of Metal.
