L
MANEUVERS
rLAXS COMPLETED FOR
LONG ISLAND SOUND.
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.

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

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. Bookman.

lee Explosions In Siberia.
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. Dun
