Winslow of 283 Forest aVe today, ls not only one of tho best 'nue who celebrates his 84th birthday known and most estemed of Portland's older citizens, but has tho distinction of being the oldest holder of a lifo insurance poley in New England, If not In the United States. Mr. Winslow is one of an original family of -10 chil dren, seven boys and three girlsand comes cf good old Pilgrim stock, b'? ancestors beyond his paternal grand father, having come to Plymouth to tho Mayflower, and their history and genealogy is voluminous and interest ing, as is the coat of arms of the Wins low and Heraey families which hang on the walls of the living room in the cosy home on Forest avenue where Mr. Winslow lives with his sister, Mrs. Harriet Winslow Hersey. Mr. Winslow is tba eon of the late Daniel Winslow. ?nd a gandson of David Winslow, a famous leading Quaker more than H ( hundred year? agp. TJ?e house built by the latter stands only a. few doors away from the presen: homestead, and in its 16 rootna the Quaker sympa thizers used frequently to gather. One door north of the Winslow-Heraey home ia the old house built' in 1805 also by Grandfather Winslow, and tf.e .exterior is practically the same as ever. - Mr. Winslow's father waa a far sighter man, and consequently when the son Joseph was 16-years of age, or on January 11.1846. he took out In Mutual Benefit Company of New Yor-i, for $8,500, calling for an annual pre mium of $54.80 cud offering no cash or loan values and no special prlvii egea; only a promise to pay the death claim to the beneficiarles of the in jured in case of death. In those days life insurance policies never contained such provisions. A* time went on, however, the scope of Insurance broad onad, and the Mutual Benefit, while bot obliged to db so, kept Mr. Wins low's policy in line with the most mod era that were issued from time to time, granting unasked every conces sion m*4fe tc the newer policy holders.

The World's Record of Unsteady Golf Playing. In the ' July American Magasine lerome D.

Following ls his iccount of the most erratic game on record: "Tue world's record for nnsteadi less probably goes to a certain Cali fornia goiter, Ther? was a team match scheduled between two clubs, ?ach ci ab picking its five best men. When the match started it was dis* covered that only four men had re ported for one of the teams. The cap tain of the team that had a missing nan saw standing by a dub member arith a handicap somewhere around 16 or 18 strokes. Hit average game atas about 98. As a rufe he could be counted upon to go cat in 60 and some back in 48. Tb it day, to his jwn amazement and to th? confusion it his opponent, he waa out In 34 ?leven strokes better than he had ever played the cours,? before for th first nine holes.

Le a ti in Recognizing tho Service? ?4 th? Fair Sex. Seldom in the world's history have women been decorated for valor on the battlefield, for the aimplo reason that opportunities for docdB which would earn them such decorations are ?cry few. Nevertheless, instances can be found, and nowhere more than in France, where the heroic woman tina little to complain of as regards publie recognition of her services. Since Napoleon founded the Cross of tha Legion of Honor on May 19? 1802, probably a score or more worn en have been decorated for personal bravery in v. arfare, but unfortunately only one cr two of their names aave been preserved, as the palace of the Legion d'Honneur was burned during tho commune and all records were de stroyed. Napoleon decorated at least seven women for valor. The chief of these was Anne Blget (Soeur Marthe), who was a sister of mercy, and earned the ! Cross of Legion of Honor for ber de votion to the sick and wounded, tn the care of whom sho risked lier life con stantly. The other women on whom Napoleon bestowed tho cross were disciples of Joan of Arc. who shared the perils and hardships of their men folk, enlisting and fighting gallantly. Another woman earned the decora? tion for Valor when France waa fight ing Germany in 1870. Mlle. Dodu, a postmistress at Pithviers, a village which had fallen into the banda of tua invaders, destroyed a message which she had been ordered to transmit. For this she was court-martialed by the Germans and condemned to deatb. On the arrival ot Prince Frederick, how ever, she was leleased, the prince bim? self complimenting her cn her courage. FISH GATHER IN MILLIONS - i Remarkabl? School? of Herring? That Annually Assemble on th? North Pacific Coast. Every summer there 1B a remark able run of berring on the north Pa cific coast. These fish come in such shoals that they seem a solid moving mass. They crowd into the inlets and sheltered bays and can be taken in millions by the simplest meauB. Men and boys on the Grand Trunk Pacific dock at Prince Rupert use waste paper baskets, and similar uten sils, which, with rope attached are thrown into the water and allowed to sink below tho surface, then hauled In again lull of overflowing with love* ly 'herring. But a better Idea of the density of these schools of fish is afforded Iv the face , that fishing lines with hr 1. attached can be sunk in Ute water, and pulled out instantly with lust aa many fish aa there are hooki. be there a dosen or fifty. . Tona of these herring ere taken by the fish companies and frozen in boxes for use as batt for the halibut fisheries. They are an excellent table flab, and there ought to be a profitable market for them In tho interior. As yet com paratively few of them are shipped, though dealers are now calling for them. Fishermen say the herrings seek the bays to escape the whales, which prey en them in certain localities dur ing their migrations. Working a Ship to Death. A curious instance of a craft being worked to death is reported from Bal timore, where the schooner Johnnie Green was seised for claims by tba crew. There was due the six men the sum of 8193.30, which under normal conditions might be raised by a mort gage on the boat. "But she's got enough mortgages on her now to sink her," said Captain White, "and I could not borrow another cent There's |700 or 8800 lent on her already." When told that tho Johnnie Green waa forty-two years old, and bad been In the bay service all of that time. Marshal Stockham was ready to be lieve that no more money could bc bct> rowed on her. He ordered her taken In charge and a watchman put aboard. -Nautical Gazette. Defective. A fanner, in looking hla car over one day, thrust a lighted match into the gasoline tank. The ensuing explo sion laid him up for several weeks. On the first day that he waa able to be about he visited the storekeeper who had sold him the stuff add de manded compensation. "Why should I pay you anything?" asked the marchant hotly. "It waa four ' own fault. Yon knew lt waa rasoline." "That's all right but this accident was caused by defective gasoline."
