FREELAND, PA., JULY 11, 1898.
President Laubach, of the school board,
struck home at the patchwork method
of improving public property when, at a
recant meeting of the directors,
lie stated that he did not believe in
spending a few dollars now and a few
dollars soino other time on the making
of a lawn and beautifying the grounds
around tho Daniel Coxe building. The
president thought that to have the
ground properly leveled and sodded,
trees planted and a coping of stone
placed around tho school would cost in
tho neighborhood of $40!) or §SOO, and
that if the board saw its way clear to do
this work on the grounds this year that
it might as well commence now and
finish the job at once, wliilo so many
laboring men are idle and anxious for
employment. Ho also stated that if the
board did the work by piece-meal that
it would cost the school district con
siderable more money than by con
tracting for its completion at the time
tho work is begun. Patchwork does
not pay in public or private improve
ments, and if our school grounds are to
be beautified and made to correspond in
appearance with tho handsome building
let it be done in a systematic and cap
ble manner.
Whon Hobson's gallant eight wero
exchanged for fifteen Spaniards at
Santiago last week there, was ono of
that bravo littlo band who hud some
misgivings about tho kind of welcome
he would receive whon ho reached his
ship. Whon tho Morrimac was about to
stoam to certain death in Santiago bay
Randolph Clausen, who had pleaded hard
to go and was refused permission, stow
ed himself away on tlie sacrificed vessel,
thereby giving foreign critics another
opportunity to lecture tho United States
on its "lax naval discipline." Clausen
was a deserter, having left his ship with
out orders, and thoughts of a court
martial must surely have come to him
when exchange negotiations were pend
ing. But the "lax naval discipline,"
which foreigners dwelt upon so lovingly
a few months ago, again appeared, for
the "deserter" was received with open
arms by his commander and with in
describable joy by his comrades. Our
naval discipline may be lax in the eyes
of Europe, but wo venture to predict wo
will hear less of it in tho future. For
eign critics have been given something
else to think about since they heard
from Dewey and Schley.
At no time in the history of news
paper publishing has the daily press
served its clients so woll as in tho
reports tlie correspondents of American
journals have furnished during this war.
Naval and land engagements, whether
large or small, are given in detail. Few
readers stop to consider that the columns
of news they read from Cuba havo cost
$1.47 a word for cable tolls or that a
dispatch from Manila means $3.08 laid
down at Hong Kong for each word sent.
As in numerous other respects, no
country in tho world can compete with
us In news-getting. Tho press of Ameri
ca Is lavish in its expenditure of money
and daring to secure truthful and de
tailed accounts of what the people want
to know, and to the press belongs no
small part of thn credit 111 making our
country ono solid mass of intelligent
people.
If Freeland's business people can af
ford it, they should lend their assistance
to tlie. bicycle path project, by which it
Is designed to connect thn town witli
soveral of tho nearby villages. More
business can be traced to the use of thn
wheel than most people are aware of.
An Instance may be cited. An Kckley
wheelman the other day informed the
writer that "the new path to ilazleton
from our town Is a daisy. I can run
over and get anything 1 want in no
time." If the path led to Frccland lie
would naturally run In tills direction
and some business house here would
benefit from these purchases. Encour
age the bicycle path and all other paths
that will bring business to Frccland.
The deal made at [farrisburg, by
which Quay received the votes of Loisen
ring's fourth district delegates in the
Ilepublican convention, was completed
last week by the appoiument of a post
master for Ilazleton.
THE DESTRUCTIVE TORPEDO
HUB Been Known in This Country Since tlie
Revolution*
One of the earliest mentions of the
use of torpedoes in this country was
the attempt to blow up the Eagle, a
sixty-four-gun ship, commanded by
Lord Howe, lying in New York Harbor.
This attempt prove a failure because
the operator in his attempt to attach
the screw forming a part of the torpedo
to the hull of the ship encountered
what he supposed was a bar of Iron,
which prevented the entrance of the
screw, and as daylight appeared before
he could regain the shore he cast off
the powder magazine, which in an
hour's time exploded, throwing up a
vast column of water, to the great
alarm of those on board the ship, who
were entirely ignorant of the cause.
This crude machine was called the
"American turtle," from the supposed
resemblance to that animal.
The inventor made two upper tor
toise shells, which were placed togeth
er, and were large enough to contain
the operator and sufficient air to last
him about half a hour. He used an
oar to propel the machine through the
water. Sufficient lead ballast was used
to keep the machine upright, and
means provided to admit water so as
to descend at will. There were also
two brass force-pumps to eject the wa
ter when the operator wished to ascend.
To the after part of the machine was
attached a powder magazine large
enough to hold 150 pounds of gun
powder, together with the apparatus
necessary to fire it. The magazine was
fastened to the vessel that was to be
destroyed by a screw, and a gunlock,
connected with the clockwork, was set
to strike fire at Buch time as was deslr-
WHITKHEAD TOItPEOO.
able. The same Inventor later on filled
kegs with gunpowder and arranged his
mechanism so that the powder would
be ignited when the kegs came in con
tact with anything in their course. A
number of these kegs were set adrift
In the Delaware and exploded among
the ice, creating great consternation
among the British seamen, who stood
for hours firing at everything that
floated down the stream. This fight
was nick-named the "Battle of the
Kegs."
Various improvements were made in
these engines of war, hut they were all
more or less crude. During the civil
war they played an important part in
the defense of harbors and rivers, and
suggested the possibility of a very effi
cient weapon of offense and defense.
Years of study and experiment and tho
expenditure of thousands of dollars
have resulted in the perfected torpedo
of to-day, containing in its slim, shin
ing body more wondrous mechanism
and resource thun seemed possible to
the uninitiated. A miniature battle
ship in itself, with magazines and a
silent little gunner, who only fires at
the right moment; a pilot, who gets
his instructions before starting on his
voyage and conducts his ship by the
course laid out; an engineer force that
works silently and effectively, with
never a thought of the danger to be
encountered, all working in unison for
one common cause, none human, but
all the result of man's ingenuity.
When one stands on one of the lower
decks of the modern man-of-war and
sees this beautiful war engine resting
on its cradles, its long, shining, cigar
shaped body appeals to the Imagina
tion; but when one has a knowledge of
the stored-up energy within the steel
clad body it seems as if the age of
miracles had returned.
Le Seraeut lie Mer Fro LIRA IN.
The Haiphong mail has brought news
of a hitherto unknown species of ocean
monster which has been seen on sev
eral occasions by the officers of the
gunboat Avalanche in Fal-tsl-Long
Bay. Naval Lieut. Lagresille, com
mander of the Avalanche, reports that
on July last in Along Bay two animals
of strange form, about twenty yards
long and two or three yards in cir
cumference, were observed at a dis
tance of 600 metres. Their movements
were not rigid, but undulatory, In a
vertical sense. They dived when n
shot was fired at them. Several similar
creatures were seen on Feb. 25 this
year, and were fired at when from 300
to 400 yards distant. Two small sheila
burst on one of the monsters, but did
not appear to injure it. Lieut Lagre
sille tried to run them down, but they
were too swift for the Avalanche.
Whenever the animal he chased got in
to shallow water it doubled back and
thus was clearly seen. Each time It
dived it blew noisily. The color was
gray, with several black fins, tue head
something like that of a seal, and the
back covered with a sawlike ridge.
The presence of these creatures is re
vealed by their loud breathing. Lieut.
Lagresille thought once that he had
secured a specimen, but the animal
dived and came up far astern of tho
Avalanche. The number of meetings
reported with these new denizens of
the deep would tend to show that the
species Is fairly plentiful in the seas
where the Avalanche was stationed.
A French Way to Care lluldneaM.
A French surgeon announces a novel
cure for baldness, which, however, is
only within the reach of the wealthy.
The first thing is to find some poor
starving wretch with a fine head of hair
of the color which the patient deslreß.
The former having consented to part
with his hair for a stipulated sum, the
doctor scalps the pair delicately and
applies the hniiy scalp of the subject to
the bald client, and vice versa.
WHISTLED YANKEE DOODLE.
How LLIE Music Was Secured HO US to FLAY
tlie National Air at a Celelirut lon.
The Youth'a Companion tells this
story: After the representatives of
Great Britain and the United States
had nearly concluded their pacific
labors at Ghent in making the treaty
of peace which ended the war of 1812,
the burghers of the quaint old Dutch
city determined to give an entertain
ment In honor of the Ministers. They
determined, as a part of their pro
gramme. to perform the national airs
of the two powers.
The musical director was sent to call
upon the American Ministers and ob
tain the music of their national air.
A consultation ensued, at which Bay
ard and Gallatin favored "Hail Col
umbia," while Clay, Russell and Ad
ams wanted "Yankee Doodle."
The musical director asked if any of
the gentlemen had the music. Not one
of them had it. Then he suggested
that perhaps one of them would sing
or whistle the air.
"1 can't," said Mr. Clay. "I never
whistled or sung a tune In my life;
perhaps Mr. Bayard can."
"Neither can I," answered Mr. Bay
ard. "Perhaps Mr. Russell can."
Mr. Russell, Mr. Gallatin and Mr.
Adams in turn confessed tlieir lack
of musical ability.
"1 have It," exclaimed Mr. Clay, and,
ringing the bell, be summoned bis
body servant. "John," said be, "whis
tle 'Yankee Doodle' for this gentle
man."
John did so, the chief musician
noted down tlie air, and at the enter
tainment the Ghent burgers' band
played the national air of the United
States with variations.
Sympathy of un EIIRIIHII Woman.
Miss Agnes Slack writes to "The
Union Signal" as follows, requesting
that the message be "passed on":
"I am full of sympathy with the
United States in the most difficult po
sition In which it is placed by Spain.
As neighbors of Cuba I cannot see how
the people of America could allow the
Cubans to continue to suffer so much
from Spanish rule, for a time comes
when a nation forfeits by misrule the
right to manage its own affairs, when
oppression reaches such a climax that
a neighboring country has to harbor
refugees from that nation's tyranny.
Mr. McKinley's calm statesmanship
and his reluctance to commit his coun
try to the cruelties of war must have
raised him as a great ruler in the eyes
of every one. I send this little mes
sage to my American sisters as an
English woman who loves and honors
the American people and fully sympa
thizes with them in their determina
tion to end the sufferings of the op
pressed Cubans. I shall never forget
the Cuban women whom I saw and
i talked with when I was in Florida."
A Had Cane.
He returned home from a "Dutch
lunch" and fouud Ida wife await lug

"George," she said, solemnly, "don't
you know that you do wrong to frit
ter away your time In this sinful
folly? Do you ever think of the brev
ity of life? Do you remember that
every time you breathe a human soul
passes from existence?"
George looked grave.
"Ever* time 1 breathe somebody
Hies?" he repeated.
"Yes."
lie thought of that awful conglom
eration of sauerkraut, caviar, llni
j burger and beer, and said: "Well, I

I'esAiiiilsm.
"There is a great deal of difference."
she said, with sarcasm, "between the
way a man parts with his money he
fore he is married and afterward."
"Yes," replied Mr. Pennywise. "Be
fore marriage, when ho gives her a
three-dollar bunch of flowers, she says
Thank you, George! You are so good
and kind and generous!' But after,
when he gives her three-fourths of
his salary, she merely looks hurt and

BATTLE OF TRENTON.
On Christmas day in seventy-six,
Our ragged troops, with bayonets fixed,
For Trenton marched away.
The Delaware see! the boats below!
The light obscured by hail and snow!
But no signs of dismay.
Our object was the Hessian band,
*Tha t dared~invade fair freedom's land.
And quarter in that place.
Great Washington he led us on
Whose streaming flag, In storm or sun.
Had never known disgrace.
In silent march we passed the night,
Each soldier panting for the fight,
Though quite benumbed with frost.
Greene on the left at six began,
The right was led by Bulllvan
Who ne'er a moment lost.
Their pickets stormed, the alarm wai
spread,
That rebels risen from the dead
Were marching into town.
Borne scampered here, some scampered
there,
And some for action did prepare;
But soon their arms laid down.
Twelve hundred servile miscreants,
With all their colors, guns, and tents,
Were trophies of the day.
The frolic o'er, the bright canteen,
In centre, front, and rear was seen.
Driving fatigue away.
Now brothers of the patriot bands,
Let's sing deliverance from the hands
Of arbitrary sway.
And as our life is but a span,
Let's touch the tankard while we can,
In memory of that day.

Home-Miide Skin Toulu..
j Greasiness of the skin generally
arises from lack of cleanliness or de
bility of the skin. Only an astringent
lmß an effect upon It, and a very sim
ple and entirely harmless one may be
made from one pint of rosewater, half
a pint of white wine vinegar and a few
drops of the essence of rose. This
| lotion should be applied with a soft
linen rag or a flue sponge.
Blackheads are difficult to get rid of
once they appear. They are caused by
the clogging of the pores of the skin
}by dust or foreign matter. Alcohol, 90
per cent., applied by means of a piece
of chamois skin, will give tone to the
skin and remove unsuspected dust and
dirt, at the same time stimulating the
small glands and removing, by con
j stant use, the blackheads.
| Tan and freckles may be removed by
[the following lotion: Two drachms of
powdered sal ammoniac, four fluid
drachms of cologne water, one quart of
I distilled water. As home remedies
both lemon Juice and borax are very
efficacious for the same purpose,
j For some skins which cannot stand
| constant washing, but needing to be
[ cleansed after a walk or ride by other
means than soap and water, lait vir
ginal is a delicious preparation, and is
'made as follows: One pint of rose,
orange-flower or elder-flower water,
] half an ounce of the simple tincture of
benzoin and ten drops of the tincture
of myrrh.
j After exposure to a harsh or chilling
I wind it is well before retiring to rub
a quantity of fresh cream on the face,
| removing after five or ten minutes, to
! be again applied, followed by a gener
ous puffing of rice powder. Remove in
the morning by lait virginal and tepid
j water.
Queen Wllhelmlna.
Queen Wilhelmina's well-known dis
[ inclination to provide Holland with a
! prince consort by marrying is said by
knowing ones in European courts to
have a tangible practical reason.
. The young Queen is now eighteen
[ years old and is to be formally crown
| ed this year and assume control of the
fat, rich little kingdom so long admin
istered by Queen Regent Emma. Not
having yet tasted the bitter with the
sweets of power, Willielmina is in no
hurry as yet to contemplate giving up
the reins of the kingdom.
If she should marry and begin at
once, in the provident Dutch way, sup-
I plying Holland with heirs of the royal
| house, some of them would doubtless
jbe boys. The eldest son of Queen Wil
[ helmina would, upon his eighteenth
year, succeed her on the throne.
The Dutch law does not contemplate
the possibility of such a case as that
of Queen Victoria, who has ruled for
thirty-live years beyond the legal ma
jority of the English Crown Prince. If
this were the law of Holland possibly
Wllhelmlna would have less objection
to matrimony.

clares, "and everywhere you go you are

Woolen Net*.
A woolen net is a decidedly new fab

WHERE SHAMROCK GROWS.
A Unique Distinction Claimed for
Grandntone Point in Maine.
There is a firm belief about Goulds
boro, Me., that the only place in the
United States where the Irish sham
rock grows wild and hides itself away
among ranker vegetation, after the
manner of all genuine shamrock
plants, is on Grindstone Point, a bald
bluff which makes out from the south
shore of this town and stands facing
Bar Harbor, 10 miles across the bay.
At present the rough pasture land pro
duces a big crop of summer cottagers,
and is worth anywhere from SSOO to
SI,OOO an acre; but when Mooney and
Maloney came here, 75 years ago, they
bought the whole point for "three
p'un' ten" English money, and every
body who knew of the transaction de
clared openly they had been cheated
out of sls, which they would need later
on.
' The manner of their arrival on
(hi idstone Point was peculiar. The
tairionaires from Boston and New
York who come here now ride on a
special train our embark on steam
yachts built for speed and comfort.
Mooney and Maloney reached Halifax
from Cork on an emigrant ship which
was 35 days on the passage. From
Halifax they worked their way to
Pictou, and hired out before the mast
on a schooner bound for Boston. The
schooner carried the usual cargo of
oats in the hold and grindstones on
deck. When the craft had been out a
few days a leak started, and the great
mass of oats below decks began to
swell.
As she was nothing more than a
Yankee craft, made of hard pine, and
old at that, she couldn't stand the
strain which the oats exerted, and she
began to split open lengthwise, like a
pea pod. With water running in and
swelling the oats below and with 50
tons of grindstones on deck to drlva
her to the bottom, the schooner was in
great danger of going down with all
on board, when a southeast gale came
along and drove her head first on the
sand beach lying under the bluff.
Mooney and Maloney escaped to land,
but the rest of the crew, together with
the schooner and cargo, were lost.
The vessel was lost in June, 1832, and
the following autumn Maloney sent
home to Ireland some leaves from the
Brst shamrock plant, perhaps, that
ever took root on American soil. He
had brought a few sprays with him In
a box mixed with damp moss, and when
he found he was safe ou land he set out
the plants on the west side of the point
In a small depression which is now
known as Shamrock Hollow. Mooney
and Maloney named the whole head
land Shamrock Point, and the name
would have held if it hadn't been for
the grindstones. The vessel soon went
to pieces under the blows of the sea,
and the broken timbers and oats were
ground to pulp or drifted away and
were lost. The grindstones stayed
where they fell. Grindstones were high
and hard to get In those days. There
fore, when the inhabitants alongshore
learned that a cargo of grindstones had
been dumped down on the point and
could be had for the taking away they
came and supplied their immediate
needs and laid in a stock for future
use. It was in the nature of things
that a point which furnished ready
made grindstones should be called
Grindstone Point, a name which tho
summer residents use to-day, and
which appears in all the deeds and on
the maps.
A Magnetic Inland.
Sailors have long told tales of mag
netic islands which lure ships on to
wreck by affecting their compasses. At
these accounts the scientists have
scoffed.
Scientists have in their time scoffed
at a great many things since proved
true. It's not so many years since
mathematicians gravely proved by X
plus Y and the square root of Z that a
baseball could not be thrown so as to
curve "out of the vertical plane of
Its projection." They were wrong.
And the scientists were wrong who
denied the existence of magnetic is
lands. An island, not far away from
civilization, and recently discovered,
but near the coast of Europe and
known for centuries to the geograph
ers, has this quality. This is the is
land of Bornholm, which belongs to
Denmark, and lies in the Baltic Sea
near the shore of Prussia.
The power of attraction, which
comes from this island, alters consider
ably the reading of compasses on pass
ing ships. It Is In effect a vast mag
net, whose influence Is perceptible for
a distance of about ten miles.
('lilnn'M Vannal State.
The partition of China will throw
open to the world its vassal state,
Thibet, a country famous for its churl
ish and cruel inhabitants. The Chinese
yellow book describes it with compara
tive detail, and says that it is very
poor, but rich in minerals, which
none are aklowed to use. Strange to
say, the women of the land enjoy
more freedom than their sisters in
China or India, and are said to be
comely and intelligent. The records'
declare that Thibet was more populous
and prosperous ancient times, wh'en
it paid a handsome tribute annually
to the Chinese kings or emperors.
Tlie Name of Washington.
The name of Washington is remem
bered by states, cities, streets, towns
and public squares named for him.
Henry Clay is best known by his
cigars. Webster would be forgotten If
it were not for the Webster dictionary
edited by people not related to him.
