A SHEEP STORY.
An Engllehnuta Tells of the Bemarkable
Sagacity of a Pet Lamb.
Having read from time to time nota
ble instances of the sagacity of dogs and
cats, it has occurred tome, says a writer
In the London Spectator, that tie fol
lowing well-authenticated record of the
intelligence of a sheep may possess at
least the interest of novelty. Two years
ago a lamb owned by a gentleman
whose farm lies close to Lough Foyle
v.-ns left motherless. A yardman ia
charge of the flock nursed and fed the
little orphan. She became very tame,
and was petted by her master's chil
dren. Last year sbe had grown into a
young sheep, with a lamb of her own.
One day some dogs ran through the pas
ture grounds, and the frightened flock
scattered and . fled through the field,
which was a large one, sloping toward
the shore. The yardman, Aleck, ban
ished the intruders and collected the
sheep, as he supposed, into safety. .
An hour or two afterward the pet
sheep rushed past the dwelling house
apparently in great distress. With pite
ous bleatings she went to the lodgo
gate, where Aleck was sitting at hU
noonday meal. and. cominir close in hm
seemed to seek his help. As he rose
from the table she ran out of the house
and straight through the pasture to the
shore. He followed her, and soon saw
the cause of her alarm. Her lamb,
terrified by the dogs, had fled to a lit
tle peninsula among the rocks, which
the incoming tide had transferred into
art. island. Of course, it could not cross
the strait and the mother could not
save it, therefore she appealed to the
power and sympathy of her human
f i lend. Her trust in his help was not
disappointed, and she and her rescued
offspring were soon safely reunited.
EXISTENCE OF RABIES DOUBTED.
Physicians Bay Fright Is at the Bottom
of Nearly All Alleged Cass.
An interesting letter was issued the
other iay by the American Antivivlsec
tion society appealing to the public not
to circulate sensational storie about
alleged mad dog and , the terrible re
suits of people being bitten by them.
Such account, it states, frighten peo
ple into nervous disorders, and yet
there is upon record a great mans of
testimony from physician asserting
the extreme rarity of hydrophobia, even
in the dog.
The letter uotcs a number of promi
nent physician in support of the the
ory that practically there is no such
affliction to mankind as hydrophobia.
Dr. Hirkm Corson, lale president of the
Pennsylvania Medical society, who was
04 years old, wrote: "I have never seen
a real ease of hydrophobia."
Dr. Vrail Green, the eminent phy
sician of Lafayette college, who it over
80 years old, writes: MI have never had
a casa of hydrophobia, nor have I ever
seen a case.'
Dr. Matthew Woodf, who hai been in
quest of the disease for 20 years, as
serts that he never saw hydrophobia
in either man or animal, although eJx
year ago he offered 100 reward to any
)Mrson bringing bun such patient.
He says further that he has never met
a physician who had seen a rase of the
disease. Such disUtiguliihed physicians
as Dr. Theophilus I'trvln, Thomas O.
Morton and Joseph W. Hearn say that
fright Is responsible for nearly all al
leged cases of rabies.

BICYCLES IN WAR.
The Wheel Has Booome Popular
in the National Guard, : .
As an Auxiliary to Military Facilities
the Two-Wheeled Vehicle Will ,
Be af Inestimable
.V Bervloe.. .-i
A secure foothold has been obtained
by the bicycle in the army and in the
national guard. Officers, who by long
service under old conditions are likely
to be conservative to a degree, admit
that before long the wheel will be a
valuable aid to military movements in
time of war. .
Some years ago Gen. Miles, who is
an enthusiastic advocate of the wheel,
eald: . .
"The results obtained under themos,
adverse and discouraging conditions
prove conclusively thnt the bicycle will
in the future become a most valuable
auxiliary in military operations, not
only for courier service, but also for
rapidly moving organized bodies of men
over the country."
Gen. Miles said in a subsequentspeech
to wheelmen that the use of the bi
cycle for military purposes is one that
would attract naturally the attention of
every soldier.
"We all know," said Gen. Miles, "that
in military matters one of the principal
arts in war is rapidity of movements
and the power to move troops and mu
nitions of war rapidly from one part of
the country to another. Hannibal, the
master of the military art, was finally
overcome by the rapidity of movement
of one of the corns of the enemv nrniln
a portion of his army. Alexander,
iianmoai and Cicero used horses and
Napoleon coaches in moving rapidly
portions of their corps from one part of
the country to another.
"Now, the question is whether the
American forces mounted on wheels
can do as mush as if mounted on horses.
It is true that a man mounted on a
wheel can move over the ordinary roads
with greater rsnldit.v and m.t.
1 J .....m ICtVtCl
distances than he could possibly move
w iuui, ur mounted upon a horse. It
is true that if you wish to send a dis
patch and station racehorses a shore
distance apart they might possibly
make better time than the rk.in-.
could over the same road, but it la a
question, with the improvements that
you are making, whether wheelmen
cannot In time pass even the race
horse. "It is estimated that there are In this
country over 250,000 men who are ac
customed to ride the bicycle. If out of
that number 60.000 men were organised
it would make one of the most effective
army corps that was ever marshaled In
any country at any time." ,
Not long ago Lieut Hunt, of Sheri
dan, and a few enlisted men, with but
little experience In riding, made a
march of is miles on wheels in one
hour and 2S minutes. The mm took
one long rest and carried the full equip
ment of a soldier. At the end of the
ride they were fresh enough to make
the journey back a pleuaure. The
ordinary time of such a march for sol
diers burdened with their rifles and be
longings would be about five hours.
Some national guard officer of rank
do not take as hopeful a view of the
service of biryclea In time of war as
does the ranking officers of the army.
They point out that there are brad
winds, bad roads sod punctured tires
to conu-nd with, and that no ammuni
tion or rommiaaariat train could keep
pace with a corps of wheelmen. The
guardsmen say: "Cycle In fan try la large
bodies would tall to accomplish much,
but in mall Independent detachments
could accomplish a great deal.
"If each regiment were allowed to or
ganise one of the additional com pan U-
provided for In the new drill rrgulaMona
frotn the many bicycle clubs In the
vicinity, the guard won 1.1 be much ben
efited. Puch a com pony ahould drill
aa provided for in the present 'United
f tales Infantry Drill K-r!stlon,' but
In single rank when mountrd, ami
should eoneider the bicycle simply at
a means of locomotion. Ia addition,
each man should be good gijrnsl man
nd hsve some knowledge of teleg
raphy. His powers af observation
should be trained to the hlj-hrat degree,
nd his ability to draw reronnaiaaanea
map aerursiely developed. Kurh a
cwtnpauy should he taught great Inde

CASTING A FLY.
Art Is Required to Itm the Thing Prop-
'iy.
Fly casting constitutes one of the
greatest Joys of angling. Although
open water is, of course, preferable, it
is not, however, absolutely necessary.
Any 100-foot clear air space will an
iwer the purpose of the beginner, al
though the water practice enable one
to use the regular cast of flics and lead
ers much sooner. While sawed shots
for weights ore to be used in lieu of
flie and leader In the first effort: the
lktter should as soon as possible be
substituted, for the line does not handle
the nme when they are not attached.
In fly casting a carefully made and
especially adapted sectional split bam
boo rod may be used, and the reel should
be attached to the butt. With 20 feet
of line !n the water, or upon the lawn,
as the case may be, and with the rod
held st angle of about 4S degrees
In front, the angler Is rcsdy for the
start of the cast. Let the line be now
worked out eight or ten feet further.
This Is done by drawing the line from
the click reel with 1he left hand, and
then by the springing, willowy action
pf the rod, which action nt the same
time diaw the slack line through the
tod guide, the line I Lftrd upward
and overhead to the reor, making the
beginning of a very Important feature
the bnck mat.
The upward, overhead and backward
motion ef the line by the spring of the
rod I produced by the motion of the
angler's formrm and wrist only. The
rod should le stopjied In the backward
itinrni -iit ultra it reschr an ongleof
l n degree In the rrr, and aa the line
rf ache a point In the rear at almost
right argle to the extreme tip ol the
roil ihe angler should again, by a wrist
nd forearm movement, throw the rod
f(.rutd l.y an sngle of 4 degree In
front, thus producing the east. The
m t east should lie made by drsulng
I be line from the reel as before and
rr.nUng exactly the same resting mo
lictn. and ar on until tbe desired Ji.
ti nre Is attained.
The back rati often pucsles tar In
fur. In attempts to recover this bsrk
cnt loo roon and ttsrl.Uie line foresrd
tafore It hs time to straighten out In
the rear many mlsharwareriprrirnced.
The rvrntrry mu.t be made st lh

Ocoaslons When He said "Well, General,"
to Wolseley.
) A story is told in which it is set forth
that Lord Wolseley exclaimed: "War
correspondents! Some of them are
desperately brave, while ' others are
anything but heroes. The majority,
I think, do their duty well, even when
it leads them into tiarht nlacea. Bv the
way, talking of tight places and war
corresponuents, 1 remember an inci
dent that may interest you. , It was at
the beginning of the Ashantee cam
paign, just after our landing; a square
built, little man cam up to me and said,
speaking slowly, and with an unmis
takable American accent: '
" 'General, allow me to introduce my
self; I am the correenondent of the
New York Herald. T
"Too busy to attend to him, I cut him
short with 'What can I do for vou.
air?'
"He replied, imperturbably, with the
same exasperating slowness: ' 'Well,
general, I want to be as near you as I
can if there is any fighting to be seen.'
" 'Capt, So-and-So has charge of nil
the arrangements concerning corre
spondents,' I rejoined, curtly; 'you
had better see him." And with this I
turned on my heel and went about mv
business.
"I saw no more of my correspondent
with the aggravating coolness and slow
ness of speech for many a day. I did
not even know whether he was accom
panying the column or not,
"Personally speaking, I was only In
danger once during the whale expe
dition. It was shortly before we en
tered Coomossie, I had pressed for
ward with the advance troops, hoping
to break the lsst effort at resistance
and have done with the affair, when
the enemy, utilising the heavy covert,
csme down and fairly surrounded us.
For a few minutes the position was
critical, and every man had to fight,
for the enemy's fire was poured in at
close quarters. They pressed upon us
from H sides, dodging from tree to
tree, and cautiously edging closer,
hoping to get hand to hand. In the
hottest ef it my attention was caught
by a man in civilisn's clothes, who was
some IS or 20 ysrd In front of me,
and who ws completely surrounded
by the advancing ssvsgea. He aeemed
to py no attention to the danger he
w In, but, kneeling on one knee, took
aim, snd fired sgsin and again, and I
seemed to see that every time he fired
a bluek man fell. I was fascinated by
his danger and coolness. As our msln
body came up and the ssvages were
driven back, I went forward to see
tht no harm came lo my civilian
friend, who rose justs I reached him.
To my astonishment It was the corre
spondent of the New York Ilersld. and
he began again In the asme alow, calm
wgy:
" 'Well, general-'
"Again I Interrupted him: 'You
wera lurky lo escape. Didn't you ee
thst you were surrounded?
" 'Well, general,' he began again. 'I
giiesa I was too much occupied by Ihe
nlggrrs In front to pay much atten
tion to thoae behind.'
"Thst v. tt evidently the simple truth.
Wbstever men msy say In the future
(bout Henry M. Rteley, no on that
has seen him In danger will deny Ihst
his courage is of the first qnslliy. I
took a liking to him on the spot, snd
we berumegrest friends; nor bs any
thing occurred since to slier my opin
ion af him." London Rslurdsy Ite

Why tha Saltan of Turkey Does Not Want
a Navy.
- The incident which led to the order
for the extinction of the Turkish navy
was as follows, says the Pittsburgh
Dispatch. A transport was bringing a
number of time-expired men home,
when they respectfully mutinied, and
begged their officers to go below, as
they wished to do something which
might not be approved of. Some non
commissioned officers then took com
mand, and anchored off the palace, and,
after firing a salute, began shouting:
"Long live the sultan!"
This demonstration caused immedi
ate confusion at the palace, and various '
high officers were dispatched to parley
with the mutineers, but thry insisted "
on seeing the minister, and when he. at
last appeared they said they knew the
sultan had given the money to xiy
them, but they had not received it, and
they would not budge until they did. '
. " .i((wiin-iu. wen wi uujr avail, nun
the money had to be sent for and dis
tributed, after which the men weighed
anchor with a cheer, and gRte up the
ship again. The sultan, however, re
flected that what a transport bad done
peaceably a heavily-armed man-of-war

he wanted no more navy,

The Yale students hsve adopted a
new fad this year. It is promcunding

kind. It is tbe upier elnaa men and so
ciety men chiefly who are moking them

walking together through the shop

students, with the first bluth of Bum

tremendous fsrmerlike straw bats. It
became such a fnd that the shopkeep
er had a sprint supply tent to ihnn
from lh manufacturers. They were
hats of Uie kind usually kept by the
country grocer, and until the students
look them up were never found in the
