GUARDING Work Performed by the United States Life-Saving: Service on Ocean, Lake and River. The work of the life-saving service of the country during the past year has been so creditable as to he highly pleasing to the governmental officials here. There have been fewer dis asters and more lives saved on the coast in the last year than ever before in the history of the conntry. With out question the life-snving service of the United Htntes is the superior of that of any Nntion in the world. This is demonstrated every day. Many stories are told, and many novels written of the hardy and sturdy volunteer life savers of Kngland, but these veterans do not compare with the trained, brave life crews of our own country. .During the fiscal year 1895-'0P there were 4f20 disinters on the coasts of the British isles. Despite the efforts of the life savers 458 lives were lost. Along the immense coast of this country, including also the great lakes, there were, during the same period, i80 disasters and only twenty lives lost. The fignres of rescues are not given, but t lie lives saved by American life savers are far in excess of the number saved by the English. There are 23(1 life-saving stations in this country. Of these fifty-five are on the lakes. There are only fourteen stations ou the Pacific cfoast, and these do comparatively Jittle work. Few disasters are credited to this coast. The Cape Cod district of this country is the worst of any section, furnishing more disasters than the same stretch of any other part of the United States. From the eastern extremity of the coast of Maine to Race Point on Cape Cod, a distance of 415 miles, there are bnt sixteen stations, ten of these be ing located at the most dangerous points on the coast of Maine and New Hampshire, which, although abound ing with rugged headlands, islets, THE SURF vrooks, reefs and intricate channels that would naturally appear to be replete with dangers, are provided with nu merous harbors and places of shelter in which, upon short notice, vessels can take refuge. The portion of the , Massachusetts coast included, al though less favored with safe resorts, enjoys the excellent guardianship of the Massachusetts Humane Sooiety a venerable institution, operating un der the volunteer system. On account of this protection, the general govern ment has deemed it proper to place its stations within this territory only at points where wrecks are unusually fre quent ; at least, until other dangerous parts of the coast shall have been pro vided for. The life-saving stations upon the ooean beaches are generally situated among the low sand-hills oommon to such localities, sufficiently back of high-water mark to be safe from tho reach of storm tides. They are plain structures, designed to serve as bar racks for the crews and to afford con venient storage for the boats and ap paratus. Most of those npon the Long Island and New Jersey coasts have been enlarged from the boat houses TOM HOBTAB. put up to shelter the boats and equip' ments provided for the use of volun. teers before regular orews were em ployed. Those built later are more oomely is appearanoe, while a few, located conspicuously at popular sea- aide resorts, make some pretensions to . architectural taste. They are all desig nated by names indicating their looah ties. In the majority of stations the first floor is divided into lour rooms- . boat room, a mess room, (also serving lor a sitting room for the men), keeper's room and a store room. Wide, double-leafed doors and a sloping plat form extending from the sills to the ground permit the running out of the heavier equipments from the building, The seoond-story contains two rooms; one is the sleeping room of the men, the other has spare cots for resoued people,' and is also used for storage, The wore commodious stations have two additional rooms a square room and a kitchen. . in localities where good water cannot be otherwise ob THE COAST. tained cisterns are provided for water caught from the roof. There sur mounts every station a lookout or ob servatory, in which a day watch is kept. The roofs upon the stations on those portions of the const exposed to view from the sea are usually painted dark red, which makes them dis tinguishable a long distance off shore. They are also marked by a flagstaff sixty feet high, used in signaling pass ing vessels by the international code. The stations (other than the house of refuge) are generally equipped with two surf bonis (supplied with oars, life boat compass and other outfits), a boat carriage, two sets of breeches buoy apparatus (including a Lyle gun and accessories), a cart for the trans portation of the npparatus, a life-car, twenty cork jackets, two heaving sticks, a dozen Coston signals, a dozen sig nal rockets, a set of the signal lings of the international code, a medicine chest with contents, a barometer, a thermometer, patrol lanterns, 'patrol checks or patrol clocks, the requisite furniture for rude housekeeping by the crew and for the succor of rescued peo ple, fuel and oil, tools for the repair of the boats and apparatus and for minor repairs to the buildings, and the necessary books and stationery. At some of the stations the Hunt gun and projectiles are supplied, and at a few the Cunningham rocket apparatus. To facilitate the transportation of boats and apparatus to scenes of ship wreck a pair of horses is also provided at stations where they cannot be hired, and to those stations where the sup plies, mails, etc., have to be brought by water, a supply boat is furnished. All the stations on the ooean coast of Long Island, twenty-nine stations on the coast of New Jersey, nine sta tions on the coast between Cape Ilen lopen and Cape Charles, and all the BOAT. stations between Cape Henry and Hat' teres inlet are connected by telephone lines. The station buildings npon the coast are all constructed with a view to with stand the severest tempests. Those located as many neeessarily are whore they are liable to be undermined or swept from their positions by tho ravages of storms and tidal waves, are so strongly put together that they may be overthrown and sustain but trifling injury. There are instances on record where they have been carried .a long distance inland in one case a half mile without sustaining material damage. This substantial construc tion also enables them to be easily and cheaply moved when threatened by the gradual enoroaohment of the sea, which, upon many sections of the coast, effects in the course of years great changes in the configuration of the coast line. At Louisville, Ky., are dangerous (alls in the Ohio Kiver, across which a dam has been constructed. Navigs tion there is dangerous, and a station is established. The floating station at Louisville is a soow-shaped hull, on which is a house of two stories, sur mounted by a lookout. Besides the housekeeping furniture there are but few equipments; two boats, oalled life skiffs," and two reels, each with a ca pacity to hold a ooil of five-inch man' ilia rope, and so placed in the boat room that a boat can be speedily run out from either, or, if desired, that they can be run out of the boat room, with the lines upon them, for use else' where. The station is usually moored above the dam at a plaoe which will afford the -readiest access td boats meeting with accident, but it can be towed from plaoe to place when neces sity requires, as was the case in the great floods of 1883-'8, when it was ol incalculable service in rescuing people from the upper stories and roofs of their inundated dwellings, and in distributing food to the famish' ing. On these two calamitous occa sions the crew of this station resoued and took to places of safety over 800 imperiled persons men, women and children among them many sick and infirm and supplied food and other necessities to more than 10,000. The number of men composing the crew of a station if determined by the number of oars required , to pnl the largest boat belonging to it. There are some five-oared boats in the At lantio stations, but at all of them there is at least one of sis oars. Six men. therefore, make up the regular orews of these stations, but a seventh man is added on ikajsfifst of December, so that during (he most rigorous portion of the season a man may be left ashore to assist in the launching and beach ing of the boat an1 to see that the sta tion is properly prepared for the oom fortable reoeptiou of his comrades and the rescued people they bring with them on their return from ' a wreok also to aid in doing the extra work that severe .weather necessitates, Where the self-righting and self-bailing boat, which pulls eight oars, is used, mostly at the lake stations, corresponding number of men is em ployed. MR BnKKrilES nuor. The crews are selected by the keep ers from able-bodied and experienced surfinen residing in the vicinity of the espective stations. i.neli station has a keeper who has irect control of all its affairs. The position held by this officer will be ecogmzed at once as one of the most important in the service. He is, therefore, selected with the greatest care. The indispensable qualifica tions for appointment are that he shall be of good character and habits, not less than twenty-one nor more than forty-five years of age; have sufficient education to be able to transact the sta tion business; be able-bodied, physi cally sound, and a master of boat-craft and surfing. Upon original entry into the service surfman must not be over forty-five years of age, and sound in body, being nhjected to a rigid physical examina tion as to expertness in the manage ment of boats and matters of that character by the inspector of the dis trict. Only Nine Years Old and Swain the Ten nessee. Lizzie Hngar, aged nine, is now the pride of Hill City, near Chattanooga, Tenn. She swam the Tennessee Kiver one day recently. At the poiut where the feat was performed the river is three-fourths of a mile wide, and she was in the water nearly half an hour. The feat was made more remarkable for so young a swimmer by the fact that she accomplished it without rest' ing, and almost wholly.by straightfor ward swimming. Hue changed hor position by floating occasionally, but she kept on progressing. The feat was performed on a wager made by her father that she could no coraplish it. He followed close in her wake in a skiff, so as to be on hand if MZZIB HAOAR. she took swimmer's cramp or met with any accident. Lizzie learned to dive and swim before she was seven years old, and is never happier than when indulging in her favorite pastime. According to recent Government tests by Lieutenant Vladimiroff, of the Russian Havy, pure oaoutobouo should stretch seven times in length without breaking. - TRICYCLE PATROL FOR TAKING PRISONERS TO THE POLICE STATION It Is la active use by the Dayton (Ohio) convenient method of uamUing an arrest. TINIEST HORSE IN THE WORLD. A Shetland Pen That Is no Bigger Than a St. Bernard Dog. ( The tiniest horse in the world is a0ly twenty-one inches in height, and is the property of the Marchese Car cano, a celebrated nobleman horse faneier, whose four-in-hand of smalt Shetland ponies have taken first prizes at every horse fair in Europe for four or five years. The Marchese Carcano told the Borne correspondent of the New York World that he is abont to make a tour of tbo world with his team of Shetland ponies, and will also take with him his smallest horse, Leo, which has won the gold modal at the Milan. Leo, the smallest horse, is a full- grown animal which has been reared on the stock farms of the Marchese, and is the surprising result of a num ber of interesting experiments. The smallest Shetland ponies are never un- iter eight bauds high, which is equal to thirty-two inches, and is eleven inches taller than Leo. The latter is no less remarkable for his perfect SMALLEST nORBB COMPARED WITH A Ofl. symmetry than for his minute propor tions. He is a beautiful chestnut, with shaggy tail, which reaches almost to the ground. His neck measures ten inches, and his head from bis face is just about six inches. From his fore legs to the hindlegs Leo measures just as much as his height, and his chunky legs are exactly ten inches long. What Some Plates Cost. The plates that are moBt popular among multi-millionaires are of Min- ton ware. They oost $2740 each. A plate of plaiu gold costs just about the same sum. They are very handsome, as they well might be at the price. These gems for the tables of the rich have an exquisite painting in the cen tre of each. They are painted by the celebrated Uoullimere, and the rte signs are taken from old miniatures, The coloring of these little pictures is simnlv examsite. and every tiny detail of the fnoe, hair and costume is worked! out with the daintiness of perfection, The picture is surrounded by a lace like pattern in raised acid gold. The edges of the plates are open work in a lace design, deoorated with a running pattern in gold. The Bishop and Ills Bon. The Bishop of Worcester, England, onoe had occasion to travel through Banbury by rail. Being desirous to test and at the same time to encourage the far-famed industry of that town, and the train having stopped for a short time at the station, he beokoned to a small boy standing near at hand and inquired the price ol the oele brated buns. "Threepence each," said the boy. . 'The Bishop thereupon handed him sixpence and desired him to bring one to the car, adding: "And with the other threepence yon may buy one for yourself." The boy shortly returned, complaoently munohing his Banbury, and handing the threepence in coppers to the Bishop, exclaimed: "There was only one left, gnv'nor." Baptist Union. A Musical Mousetrap. Acting upon the idea that mice are very sensitive to music a Belgian manu faoturer has substituted -a musical mousetrap for the common trap. In' stead of baiting the apparatus with i bit of cheese or lard the inventor has hidden in a double bottom a small musio box, which plays automatically various popular airs of the country, The mice, he insists, are drawn irre sistibly toward the musio box, and in order to hear better they step into the trap and find themselves prisoners!

Miss Hertle Becker, of Moravia, Tuesday afternoon was driving past the residence of Robert Miller In Hlg Reaver township, when she saw flames coming from the roof. In trying to open a large double gate her hand caught on some rusty nails and was badly lacerated. With the blood streaming from her wounds she enter ed the hoiix-?, to find no one at h me excepting two little girls, whom she saved. She then sprang Into the buggy and rode a quarter of a mile away to a school house which some men were re pairing and notified them. They hur ried back, and, by the hardest kind of work, saved the house. Miss Decker, after the danger was over, fainted. John Sprenkel of Company I, Eighth regiment, N. O. P., Is missing. The regiment has been on duty In the Haz- leton strike region, and HprenKci got leave of absence to go home on Sat urday night. Nothing has been heard of since, and It Is feared he may have fallen Into a mine hole near the camp. When the company returned to Wrlghtsvllle Sprenkel's wife and child were waiting at the stntlon, and there was a distressing scene when the news was broken. Mrs. Jnmes Drown, a widow, andjier daughter, who reside alone on a farm near Harrlsvllle, were tortured by mnsked robbers Monday night. When Ihey refused to tell the hiding place of their money the robbers choked the women, who, when almost dead, point ed to a corner of the room In which $75 was secreted.

There was, therefore, nothing further to be done till Lvslns should oome. The waiting times for the Seople of God when the work seems hln ured by the indifference or open opposi tion of the enemies of God Is one of the mysteries. It would seem from verse 27 fhst Paul was a prisoner at Cressrea for two years. Might all this have been escaped If he had not Insisted upon going to Jeru salem Just at that time? Anyway, to rest In the Lord and wait patiently for Him Is surely good. 23. Paul Is a kind of free prisoner. He Is-under guard, but at liberty to see all who come to him. Bo It was also on the way to Rome and at Rome (xxvil., 8; xxviil., 16). and Paul doubtless made the best pos sible use of his liberty for the glory of God and to magnify the Lord Jesus, for that was the whole aim of his life nnd the end of all his teaehing (Gal. II., 20; Phil. I., 20, 21). Let each one ask. Can I say truly "For me to live Is Christ?" "I live, yet not I, but Christ Uveth In me?" "Christ shall be magnified." - 24. How glad Paul would be of this op portunity to set forth the faith In Christ, and especially to a Jewess, for one of his mottoes wns, "To the Jew first" (Horn. I., 16). He did not need time to think out or -prepare his discourse, for he was full of It, or rather of Christ, and always ready for such an opportunity. ' Every preauher should be so full of the word of God that when an opportunity to speak Is afforded he could trust the Spirit to fit the message In his Hps (Prov. xxll., 18; Math, x., 20). 25.
