The huge hydro-eloctric power de velopment aov( reaching everj part oi uie wpria owes It origin, to a homely Incident which took; ploco In California many years ago, In which an early day minor and his cow were tlio .chief factors. History and legend relate that on a hot day In, the summer of 1800 typical placer miner of that period toiled on his claim. To supply water ror washing the gold-bearing . gravel he had provided a long length of or dinary hose, and as the fall above was considerable the water .gushed from the hose with decided force. As the sun sank the' cow came to the workings to slake' her thirst, and was In danger of upsetting some of the sluices and other devices of the placer' miner. Uo the man turned the hoso on the cow. Dy chance the water, blast struck the cow in her "cup-like nosirns, urowuig her head hack sharply. The. roan was Lester X. Peltoa. out rrom emio on a mining venture, and later world famous as the t Inventor or me rciton water wheel, the de vice which forms "the basis of the great turbines which transform water Into electric energy, i'elton said many times that the Idea of the invention came, to htm wnen ne saw tlie effect of the water, blast coming In contact with the cow's nose. Within an hour he was rigging up a wagon wlieel with empty cans tied to the rim and was able to Drove the value of what was later to be his great. Invention. USED TIME TO ADVANTAGE Napoleon Profitably Occupied Hours wnien us was Fores? to Spend In Unjust 9o,nrtnmi)t, " When Napoleon I was forming the Codo Napoleon, he astonished the council of state by the readiness with. which ho Illustrated any point In dts cusMon by quoting whole passages, ex tempore, rrom the Iloman civil law, a subject entirely foreign to him, as his whole life had been Dossed In the camp. On being asked by Trellhard how be had acaulred so familiar a knowledgo of law, Napoleon replied: "when I was a llouteuant, I was once unjustly put under arrest. The smalt room assigned for my prison con tntned no (urnlturo, save an old chair and a cupboard. In the tatter was a ponderous volume, which proved to be a digest of the Iloman law. As I hid neither paper, .pens,' Ink or pencil, you may easily Imagine this book to have been a valuable prize to roe. It was so bulky, and the leaves were so cor red by marginal notes In manuscript, that had I been confined 100 years, I need never to have been Idle. I was only ten days deprived of my liberty, but on recovering It, I was saturated with Justlnlun, and the decisions of the noman legislators. It was thus I acquired my knowledge of the civil law." Appropriate, WhatI The Church at Work, published by the National Council of the Episcopal church, tells of a resourceful native or ganist who was called upon suddenly to fnroUh the music for a mission wedding ceremony at Ilankow, China. The bridegroom had recently become Christian. Following the custom, he sent a beautiful sedan chair and a bras band to escort the bride to bis horns, where the ceremony was.to be performed. Something delayed the bride, and the impatient young man hurried down to the mission house, where It waa decided to have the wedding on the spot, A meeting was In progress In the church, so It was Impossible to hove the brass band play. Whereupon one Elsie LI was commandeered to play the wedding march. There was no sheet music on band, and Elsie was not equal to the task of playing Mendelssohn frotn memory. She wns strung, however, on one good old march tune, and ac cordingly the wedding party were dum,. rounaeu ana amuseu a rew minutes later when the bride and bridegroom marched blithely forward to the altar to the tune of "Onward Christian Soldiers, Marching as to War." -Passion Play" Result of a Vew, The Oberarumergau Taaeion Way," dramatic representation of the suf ferings of Christ, originated from a vow made by the Inhabitants of the little Itavartun villas In 1698, with the hope of staying a plague then raging. The original text probably waa made by the monks of Etta!; bat the parish priests have since carefully revised It. The music was composed by Itochus Dedler In 1614. The play Is given by amateurs In a purely rever entlal spirit, and not for gain. It re quires s cast of about seveu hundred persons. In 1001 nn SSO.000 playhouse as erected especially, for the pres entation, which Is given every ten j cam. The first performance was given In 1034. Too Un0 to Walt llr.
