Nllitia if Enorn Stales Will Partlci pate Jointly With Mm on lUg Sen flplitprs Boat Racea and Com lenitive Target Practice. Plans have been completed at the n.ivy department f0r jne joint maneu vers of the naval" mllltla battalions of the eastern and New England states, which will begin three days hence In Gardiner's Day, Long Island Sound. The tour of duty for the state tars will be the most extensive ever un dertaken and will last from next Sat urday until Monday, August 17, two days longer than the time allotted under the original project. It Is announced that Commander Charles C. Marsh. U. S. X.. will com mand the squadron at Gardiner's bay and that he has outlined a program of the tour of duty, which differs widely from the maneuvers In former years, as well as comprising Interest ing details Impossible to obtain under the single battalion cruise on the ves sel, as has been the plan In previous years. Besides the converted yachts and other vessels owned by the naval mili tia of all the states represented In the maneuvers except Rhode Island and Maine, the Yankee, and Prairie of the government's auxiliary cruiser fleet and the torpedo flotilla, with parent ship, will participate. The Rhode Island battalion will probably be accommodated on either the Prairie or the Tankee, and these two vessels will probably be utilized in a small part by the overflow de tachments from other state naval militia commands which cannot be wholly accommodated on their own craft Naval officials believe that the plan proposed for this year's man euvers have many advantages over those in. vogue In previous years, in asmuch as It will afford an opportu nity for the men to observe and get acquainted with the men of the naval militia of all the other northern states participant Iji the tour of duty. The plan will, it Is expected, produce much that Is good In the way of uniformity, besides tending to a knowledge of va rious ideas In other battalions which might be incorporated In the facllltat ' Ing of training. There will be two converted yachts owned by the Massachusetts naval militia, at Gardiner's Bay, two from New York state, one containing the .Jersey City battalion of the New Jer sey Naval Reserves, and two from Connecticut, in addition to the vessels of the regular army. Much Interest In the coming maneuvers Is evinced by the naval militiamen, especially because of the fact that, for the first time, the program will be carried out for a squadron. Instead of on board a single ship, as heretofore. At Gardiner's Bay there will be boat races and competitive target practice by the crews of the various state commands, with maneuvers. The entire tour of duty will not be spent In the harbor at Gardiner's Bay. 6n the contrary, a portion of the pro gram It is said, will comprise sea duty, though of a different class from previous years. There will also be an opportunity for the studying of tor pedo boat works, an. entirely new feature of the annual tour of duty of the reserves. HE WAS QUALIFIED. Excellent Health Advice. .. Mrs. M. M. Davidson, of No. 379 Glfford Ave., San Jose, Cal says: "The worth of Electric Bitters as a general family remedy, for headache, bllllousness and torpor of the liver and bowels Is so pronounced that I am prompted to say a word In Its fa vor,' tot the benefit of those seeking relief from such afflictions. There la more health for the digestive organs In a bottle of Electric Bitters than in any other remedy I know of." Sold under guarantee at Tallman & Co.'s drug store. 50 c. The Clergyman's Visitor Finally Got What He Wat After. "In that crisis," said a theatrical manager, speaking of a stage blunder ho had committed, "I made a mistake, as queer a mistake as one that was made by a friend of mine, a clergy man. "The clergyman had advertised for a butler, and the uext morning after breakfast a well dressed, clean shaven young man in black was ushered Into his study. " 'Name, please 7 said the clergyman. "Hilary Arbuthnot.'slr.' " 'Ager " Twenty -eight. "'What work have you been accus tomed to? " 'I am a lawyer, sir.' "The clergyman started. This was odd. However, as be knew, many were called In the law, few chosen. "'But,' he 6a Id, 'do you understand the conduct of a household T" "'In a general way, yes,' murmured the' applicant. " "Can you carve? " "Yes. " 'Wash glass and sliver?' ' "'I er think so.' Tbe young man seemed embarrassed. lie frowned and blushed. Just then the clergyman's wife entered. "'Are you married? was her first question. "'That,' said the young man, "was what ' I called to see your husband about, madam. I desire to know If he can make It convenient to officiate at my wedding at noon next Thursday week.' " AN ICONOCLAST. His Views en Visiting the Birthplaces of Great Men. If you like you may visit the bouse where Longfellow was born, but I have never myself done so. It seems rather foolish to make pilgrimages to the birthplaces ot distinguished men. You are. certain to be disappointed. There is Shakespeare's at least, It is conjecturally bis, a wretched, squalid hole of a garret ' which only makes you sorry for the poet And there is the birthplace of Robert Burns, trans formed into a peepshow of tawdry "relics." What does It matter where a man was born? There Is no particular merit In being born. No one who is bom has any choice In tbe matter. He is just born because be has to be. The real thing to consider Is what be does with himself after he has been born. I feel a reverential thrill when I enter 81r Walter Scott's noble book lined study at Abbotsford and see every thing Just as It was when be was still lire his leathern chair and bis desk, at which be wrote each morning before his guests were out of bed. But where be was born is of no" earthly conse quence. Shakespeare ana Scott ana Burns and Longfellow must all have looked alike when they were babies. rather red and given to squalling and doubtless smelling of sour milk. No; Longfellow's birthplace I will not vis it I like to think that when he was a man be. too, walked on Congress street wearing rather gorgeous waistcoats. But to my mind Portland Is not so much fen object of admiration because of Longfellow as Longfellow Is to be envied because he had the good luck to be born In Portland.

A Siberian traveler relates: "At 8a- donsk in tbe Intensely cold nights tbe alienee was sometimes broken by a loud report as ot a cannon. This was tbe bursting of one of the Ice bubbles In the river, a phenomenon I bad nei ther heard nor read of before. Tbe streams coming down from the hills were frozen, .on tbe surface some six to nine Inches thick. Tbe water beneath flowed faster than it could escape, and tbe pressure, on the principle of a hydraulic press, became irresistible. First the elasticity of the ice was seen by the rising of circular mounds from six to eight feetJn diameter and from four or five feet high. The bursting point came at last with a report like an explosion. Tbe water escaped, but soon froze again. I bare seen scores of these ice hillocks in a few vents of tbe river." A Strang Tstt of Manhood. Tbe ancient clan Macleod used to ei; ercise a strange test to prove the man hood of their chieftains. At Dun vegan cattle, island of Skye, there is preserved tbe large born known as "Itory More's horn." This capacious vessel holds rather more than a bottle and a half of liquor. According to the old custom, every laird of Macleod was obliged on bis coming of age to fill this born with claret and without once laying it down to drain it to the dregs. This was taken as a proof of bis manhood, and be was then deemed a worthy suc cessor to the lairds of the past.
