Wooden Cannon Used by
Japs Against Russians
In the summer of 1805, relates the
Trans-Paclfle Itevlew, when a few
Hritlsh warships hove In sight in the,
waters near Kyushu, the samurai of
Satsuma, seeing the ships were out of
gunshot from the shore, put out to the
sea with several cannon. Arriving
within range, they fired, but the shot
fulled to reach the ship. They were
little confused and llred at random
but none struck. The English sailors,
looking from their ship, laughed
heartily at them. Suddenly n thundering
boom of cannon was heard from
the British ships atjd in a few moments
the Japanese ship was seen no
more except her cannon, which were
floating In the water. Those floating
cannon astonished the English sailors.
They were made of wood hooped with
bamboo. In the Itusso-Japanese war
the wooden cannon were again used
to blow off the enemy's wire entanglements.
Saved "Bonny Prince"
Flora MacDonald was a Scottish
woman of the MacDonald clan, born
1720, dldw 1(90. Like others of her
clan, she was a supporter of Prince
Charles. After the battle of Culloden,
1746, In which the Scottish troops
were defeated, Charles was obliged to
flee and took refuge at Benbecula,
where Flora lived. She disguised the
prince as a maid servant to herself,
and traveled on horseback and passed
through many dangers, finally reaching
the Island of Skye in safety, from
which the prince made his escape.
Flora was tried and Imprisoned for
assisting him in Ids escape, but was
finally released in 1747. In 1750 she
married Allen MacDonald, a kinsman,
and came to America, 1774.
She died In 1790. and the Flora MacDonald
college was organized as a
memorial In 1S9G.
Country of Forests ?
In the little republic of Latvia on
the Baltic Riviera, more than onethird
of the territory Is covered by
forest. Seaports and inland towns,
villages und farmsteads are bidden to
keep their distance. This sight of the
monarchy of trees where the wild life
f feather and fur has been immem.
orably happy Is reserved for the traveler
who seeks In the Old world places
which are- really olden, older thaa
masonry and moats, as old as earliest
time. Pine, fir nnd beech reign supreme,
and In the Llvonlan Courland
district the forests reach as fur as
the very dunes of the seacoast.
Orchestra'* Real Meaning
An orchestra Is a band of performers
on various Instruments, Including
?specially those of the viol class,
adapted for rendering the larger
kinds of concerted muslcv as symphonies,
overtures, etc., and the aecompanlmentg
of operas, oratorios,
masses, and the like, or for playing
the slighter concerted music for theatrical
performances, dances, etc. It Is
commonly distinguished from the military
or street band of players on wind
instruments and from n group of solo
players for rendering chamber music.
Nero Model Youth at First
The emperor Nero when he first ascended
his throne was 'an extremely
kind and tender-hearted young man,
hating by nature to cuuse anybody
pain, and trained by the humane Seneca
to respect the lives and liberties
f all men. lie was the true grandson
of the large-hearted Gerhianicus, once
the Idol of the Roman people; nnd
either the pltilessness of his mother
nor the brutality of his father were
i^yet to be found In bis character.?The

Tsstini Pencil Lead*
Wearing qualities of different types
f lead for use in pencils are tested
-by an apparatus somewhat resembling
a phonograph, says Popular Mechanto
Magazine. An electrically driven
turntable, covered with drawing paper,
contains a center disk which revolves
with the turntable. This disk
It connected to two other similar disks,
at the rim of/tl)e turntable, by a

many years before improved methods
of soap making were Introduced. ?
In some (lints of the world soap '
making is even now carried out In j
much the same way us in Roman j
times.
An old cask with holes bored In one !
end is filled with alternate layers of
struw, lime and wood ushes. The '
cusk Is then placed on a raised, slant- i
Ing grooved hoard, uifd from lime to j
time water la poured on the contents,,
until there emerges a brownish liquid,
which Is collected In an Iron pot and
boiled over a tiro with (he fut and

finished.
The fire Is then allowed to go out
and the contents of the pot la left to
chill to a solid mass, after which It Is |

Wage Constant Warfare
on Dreaded Tsetse Fly ;
The Insect most feared In Africa la
the drended tsetse My. This creature
sucks the blood of cuttle and Infects
them with the germ of sleeping sickness.
It will at times attack humans.
It Is a sight hunter instead of a smellhunter.
This was proved when thousands
of them were caught in nets
and marked with small spots of paint
So that they could be identified. As
these paint-marked flies were caught
duys later In tHti'iTets of the fly'-himters,
their ?dffttribtitInn proved hoys'
widely the Hies range for their food.
Some of them were painted either
over their eyes or over their antennae,
which are believed to be the* organs
of smell. Thus groups of artificially
blinded flies and of files deprived of
the sense of smell were turned loose
and watched. The Insects without
smell went about their evil work just
the same; found cattle to bite and
sucked the blood of these animals like
normal Ihseets. The blinded files, on
the other hand, seemed unable to find
cattle or to feed. This proved that
they were guided only by sight.
J South Africa . probably consumes
more tea pep head of population than
I any other country In the world. The
I Englishman's 4 o'clock tea Is an Insignificant
habit compared with the
J constant demand for tda* that obtains
I there. Most everybody has a cup of
tea before rising, and this Is followed
I very shortly by tea at breakfnst. In
I every office and shop, nnd even In
most factorie^atl the employees knock
I off for a few minutes at 10:30 for tea
nnd again at "3:30, and In between
I these times there is a cup of tea with
J-lunch. Returning home from work
I in the evening one Is greeted by a
I cup of ten. and after dinner has been
digested the kettle Is again singing
I on the cooker for more tea. Besidefc
I this routihp. fresh tea Is brewed for
I every visitor to almost every house
I and also for customers In most officesj.
Perfection in Acoustic*
j An even more delicate test than the
dropping of a ptn has been made on
acoustic properties. When engineers
I were trying out the audibility of the
j sound reflector on ther stage of the
Hollywood bowl they dropped one No.
I 10 bird shot (weighing slightly more
I than one-thousandth of an ounce) 8
I Inches on a kettledrum. /The sound
I was heard throughout the howl. When
I dropped only one-quarter Inch listeners
I in three-quarters of the bowl heard the
shot fall. The reflector is the hulf
shell of a huge Jjone. 45 feet at the
I front of the stage and 18 feet high at
j the rear.?it is made Of 30 tons Of
I structural' steel, padded Inside and

Good Form to Smack Lip*

In Hawaii, writes Fred Lockley in his

Three Negro Bogs
Confess To Holdup
Charlotte, Nov. 20.?The shooting
of John Myers, 14-year-old Boy j
Scout, which sent this city into a
drive against crime, today was said
by police to have been solved with
the arrest ovf three negroes.
The negroes, Tom Carson, 10, Gary
Feemster, 17, and Thomas James, 10, !
admitted the attack, police said.
Myers' rifle, which he was bringing
back unloaded from Boy Scout
target practice, was fished from a
creek and the .45 calibre pistol used
in the assault was also recovered,
they said.
Another gun, a .38 calibre pistol,
obtained from the negroes, will serve
to connect them with the attempted
hold-up and shooting ten days ago of
E. G. Cochrane, investigators believe.
The negroes are said to have confessed
holding up and robbing twc
men of their overcoats, which were
recovered, s
The attack on young Myers, climaxing
a series of hold-ups and crimes
of violence, stirred the city well nigh
to hysteria.
Mapy organizations spoke out for
additional police protection, which
was promptly secured. Police automobiles
were ordered outfitted with
radio apparatus. Officials announced
all late loiterers and suspicious
persons would be questioned and,
where it was believed necessary, detained.
By radio and newspaper appeals a
reward fund totaling over $400 l'or
the arrest of Myers' assailants was
raised. Governor O. Max Gardner
wr.s asked to offer a reward.
An automobile license number, even
though incorrectly remembered by h
man who saw three negroes riding
about in the vicinity of the shooting
Saturday night, served us the clue by
which the negroes were taken.
Questioning many .persons, Detectives
Frank Littlejohn and Harry Joyner,
of the local force, finally located 1
an automobile in a negro section they
believe^ the attackers had used to
make their get-away.
Hours they kept watch over it.
Finally -Carson appeared. He was arrested.'
Although the youth refused to talk,
others reported seeing Feemster and
James with him 'Saturday night. They
were taken, into custody, quizzed and
confessed.
Both Carson and James said FeemJ>
* o
stcr fiie<l tlu? three bullets that disfigured
Myers' face and put him in a
hospital where he now lies fighting
j for life.
Y^rk Jailer Whipped Prisoners
! York, Nov.. 21. -"Sheriff F. F.
| Quinn today revealed he had received
a complaint that three p-isoaers who
recently escaped from the jail here
were severely whipped by the jailer
and a chain gang guard when recaptured.
The complaint, came, he said, from
relatives of the three, William C.
McFadden, Harold MeFadden and
Karl Arnette, all of Rack Hill.
Since the complaint, the jailer Sam
S. Russell, and the guard, E. Y.
Russell, his brother, have resigned.
Sheriff Quinn refused to say whether
he had requested the resignations.

schooner and five members of his
crew are on trial in Federal court
in Tampa, Fla., charged with trying
to smuggle a large quantity of narcotics
into this country from -Cuba.
