Signs of Spring
In this Middle States location
March as a spring month is not an en
tire success. Its earl}- days are likely
to be as wintry as the coldest of Febru
ary, and it is safer to expect a blizzard
than a zephyr, any time. Yet there
is something of apring to be noted,
even when deep frost holds the ground
from tihe spade and while the furnace
yet yawns for the last remaining
shovelfuls of the coal supply that was
so surely to last the winter through.
Look at the upturning tips of the
horse chestnut twigs and note there a
shiny, smooth coating over the fat ter
minal buds that may even be sticky
to the touch—if you can touc-h it. If
you had looked in February, you would
have seen just the same bud's, but not
so shiny-sticky and not quite so large.
They are getting ready for the spring
jump.
The lilac buds are worth close in
spection. They, too, are fat and
plump, where they are to be flowers
rather than leaves, and, while they
have been plump all winter, they are
just a bit softer, looser and seemingly
riper. They are ready as well for the
impending event—the whole joyous
resurrection that makes a northern
spring something so luxuriant, so splen
did, so sweet that the visitor from a

Pure Bred Arab Horses
In Cairo there is a society for pre
serving the pure bred Arab "horse. It
is said that recont changes in the lives
and habits of the Bedouins have re
sulted in t>he deterioration of these
horses. A practical horscmßii of wide
experience says that as a rule the Arab
horse is now no - better treated than
our own horses, whatever may have
been true of the old days when such
poems as "The Arab to His Steed"'
were written.

Manila, Feb. 24. —Four hundred
members of the mutinous Indian regi
ment which revolted at Singapore on
February 15, have been killed as well
• as seven German prisoners from the de
' tention camp who joined the natives
J when offered their freedom, according
I to reports of the uprising brought here
bv passengers from Singapore. The
mutineers are said to have killed a i
their ollicers save the colonel and then
attacked civilians, several of whom
were killed, including one woman.
The revolt began without warning.
Half of the Fifth liig'ht infantry of
Rengal on their way to Egypt number
ing 500, suddenly attacked and sub
dued the other half. Reports brought
here that the rebellious troops killed
| none of the Hiindu soldiers who re
mained loyal, but they did kill some of
their officers, including British and
native. They then attacked tho houses
of civilians, according to the stories,
killing men but sparing the women and
' children, who sought refuge on the
j transport Nile, lying in the harbor.
Offered Freedom to Germans
The mutineers offered freedom to all
| Germans in the detention camp who
j would join them. Only seven of the
| prisoners accepted this proposal, the
i others preferring to remain where they
! were.
The half regiment which remained
j loyal soon organized itself and started
i out to attack the mutineers. Tho troops
| were joined by Europeans of all aiges
j who offered their services as volunteers.
I In the running fights which followed,
four-fifth of the revolting Indians are
said to have been killed and it is be
lioved only about 100 now remain in
tho country surrounding Singapore. The
troops which were attempting to quell
the mutiny were reinforced the follow
ing day by sailors landed from French,
British and Japanese warships. The
revolt began at a time when there were
no war vessels in port.
Other reports received here from
Singapore are that there are rumors of
unrest among the natives in Rangoon,
Colombo and Java.
An official report given out at Lon
don last night by the bureau of infor
mation said that the revolt of the na
tive troops was due to jealousy and dis
satisfaction concerning promotions. It
was stated that in "a serious riot"
wliieh followed there was a "regret
table loss of life."
Force of Drops of Water
It seems almost incredible that so
small a thing as a drop of rain should
injure the propeller of an aeroplane,
but such is the case. At so great a
speed does the pro-pell or revolve—l,ioo
revolutions a minute as a matter of
fact—that a rain drop hits it with such
enormous force as to chip a piece of
the wood away. Some idea of the
hardships entailed l by flying through
tho rain at sixty miles an hour may
be gathered from the fact that an avi
ator who recently went through such an
esiierience, alighted with the edge of
his propeller fretted as though it had
ben gnawed by rats. The rain drops
had chipped pieces out of the blades
and also bruised the aviator's face, ow
ing to the force with which they hit
against his flesh.—London Spectator.
Antiquity of "A Regular Shindy"
The antiquity of many familiar terms
is surprising when it is known. Many
people are not aware that "What the '
di'-ikens!" occurs in Shakespeare, but
fewer still will be prepared to hear
that the phrase "a regular shindy'is
found in an author's note to a poem
called "The Popish Kingdom," pub
lished in 1570. A writer quotes this
note, which refers to the celebration
of Maundy Thursday, "Midnight serv
ices aro held in church, the lights are
put out, and a regular shindy follows,
men l>eing beaten and wouddled."—
London Globe.
A Joint Concern
When Richard Brinsiev Sheridan
was in distress, in early life, one of his
resources was that of writing for the
fugitive publication's of the day, in
whicli he was materially assisted by
his wife, and many years after his
entrance into the spheres of politics lie
was heard to say that "if he had stuck
to the law he bejieved ho should have
done as much as his friend Tom
Erskino; but," continued he, "I had
no time for such studies. Mrs. Sheri-.
dan and myself were often obliged to*
keep writing for our daily leg or shoul
der of mutton; otherwise we should
have had no dinner." One of his
friends, to whom he confessed this,
wittily replied, " Theu I perceive it wai
a 'joint' concern."
