pedition of Maj. §. H. Long Into
Northwest,

i
|
|
by Maj. Stephen H. Long of the United
{ States army took its departure from
Philadelphia on the 20th of April last
with the view of traversing the Ameri-
| can territory in a northwesterly direc-
! tion and returning by way of the great
i northern lakes, says the Franklin Ga-
i zette of October 27, 1823. The gentle-
{ men composing the expedition accord-
ingly proceeded by way of Wheeling,
i Fort Wayne, Chicago, Prairie du
Chien and Fort St, Anthony to
i source of the River St. Peter.
i They then traveled over the valley
| of the River St. Peter to its junction
{ with the Assiniboine, having ascer-
| tained, agreeably to their instructions,
i the point at which the forty-ninth de-
| gree of north latitude, the northern
| boundary of the United States, crosses
| that river. Thus far they had gone by
| horses, but at this place they em-
{ barked on hoard bark canoes, in which
{ they reached Lake Superior, Here they
{ exchanged their canoes for a battean
| and, amid severe gales and storms
! with snow, proceeded to Mackinaw
where they met a revenue cutter, whick
{ took them to Detroit. There they
the steamboat Superior and

“i,
boarded
landed at Buffalo.
Pursuing their journey they found
passage on hoard of one of the New
York canal packet boats at Rochester
on the (Genessee river, and traveled on
the customary route to Philadelphia.
The tour extended to the fifty-first
! degree of north latitude and embraced
| a circuit of more than 4,600 miles, up-
} ward of 3,000 of which were through 4
savage wilderness. This long and
hazardous expedition has been com:
pleted in the short peroid of three days
less than six months, and greatly re
dounds to the credit of the distin:
guished scientific ofiicers by whom it
wag conducted.

lowing summer earned a Minnesota
club boy a net profit of more than
$100 and the state garden club cham
plonship for last year. Obtaining a
location for his garden early, this
club boy, Willard Weeks of Winona
Minn, drew a plan of his plat, indi
cating the place for each varlety of
seed, so that when he had the ground
prepared In the spring there was no
delay in laying off and planting the
rows. The first products of the gar-
den were ready for use 21 days after
planting. From that time on, through-
out the summer, this young gardener
not only supplied his family with all
the fresh vegetables needed, but, learn-
ing how to prepare his products for
market, he built up an extensive trade

{ for late products low, he used the
i training he had acquired in canning-
club work to put up tomatoes, beets
and corn, pickles and
{| winter use. At the end of the season
| his records showed the total value ef
vegetables used at home, canned, and
stored for winter, and sold, to be $135,
produced at an expense of $21.50.

Great Ideas Last Long.
Why is it that there are some great

generations.
of men whose recollection does not
seem to fade.
Jesus of Nazareth is still a lively |
influence in millions of lives. |
Socrates, Plato, Buddha, Dante and
| Shakespeare are still vital.
Men are like bells. They are struck
with a “big idea.” As the reverbera-
tion goes on long after the stroke has
been made, according to the quality |
it and size of the bell, so the great man
is made of such metal that the rever-
berations of his initial impulse are not
deadened by the passing of years.
What a chime is that composed of
all the echoes of the world’s great |

Lights to Kill
One Texas farmer has doubled his
yield of cotton by placing lights at |
intervals in his field and under the!
lights putting basins of water to catch |
the unwary insects.
The scheme sounds reasonable. The |
same thing gets the human being. |
The bright lights of the big city at- |
tract the attention of the unwary boy |
and girl from the happy country home |
and has been the means of doubling |
the yield of broken hearts, blasted |
ives and degeneration along the bright-
ly colored broadways of the country
as well as providing a testing place
for those with characters of true blue.
The scheme works so well on people
it would be a wonder if the bugs could
not be caught by the same bait that Is |
so alluring to man. |
Nothing Now.
An African of peculiarly dusky hue
was haled to court one morning for
stealing chickens. The judge sald to |
the clerk: “Swear the prisoner.”
“Sam, do you solemnly swea: to tell |
the truth, the whole truth and noth- |
ing but the truth, so help you God?” |
“I does, sah.”
“Sam, what
yourself?”

LONG TRIP 100 YEARS AGO QUEEN IS FAIRY GODMOTHER | 1

Story of the Strenuous Exploring Ex- | But Wilhelmina’s Gift to Laborers
{ Child Was Grabbed by Father
and Brother,
Little stories reflecting Queen Wil-
helmina’s popularity with her subjects
appear from time to time in the con-
tinental press.
The Petit Parisien reports that re-
cently, while motoring in the outskirts
of The Hague, the Dutch sovereign
was attracted by the unusual beauty of
a laborer’s child who waved to her.
She stopped her car to chat with the
little girl, asked her name and kissed
her,
A few days later the delighted child
received a parcel from the palace con-
taining a beautiful pair of gloves, the
right-hand glove filled with caramels
and the left with gold pleces. Accom-
panying the gift was a note from the
queen asking her little friend to write
and tell her which of the gloves gave
her the most pleasure.
In due ‘ime the child's reply, on
tear-stained note paper, reached the
palace. “Your majesty,” it read, “I
don't know which glove I liked the
best, because my daddy took the left-
hand glove and my brother took the
right.”
The queen, In good story-book style,
promptly duplicated the gift, making
certain, however, that the child should
not be robbed by grasping father or
greedy brother, It is not related
whether or not she repeated her rather
embarrassing inquiry,
LION OF WATERLCO TOPPLING
Glory of the Old Battlefield Eclipsed
by Events of the World
War.
The great lion on the field of Water-
loo is reported in danger of collapse.
The base upon which it rests is in
ruins.
The battlefield of more than a cen-
tury ago has been forgotten by most
people in the rush to the new field of
glory. Where Napoleon and Welling-
ton contended does noc concern the
tourists who want to see where Foch
| and Hindenburg were making thelr

And the lion has lasted much longer

lishman, neither of whom had an-
other claim upon the attention of the

During the past year 684 people

Long periods of flying occur with-

Of the fatal accidents in London,
505 were caused by motorcars, motor
vans, etc., and 65 by motor busses.
In the first quarter of the present
year street accidents in the metropoll-
tan area totaled 13,930, of which 149
were fatal. Of the latter 107 were
motorcars, motor vans, ete,
and 16 by motor busses.
Paternoster Row.
Paternoster row is a street in Lon-
don, near St. Paul's cathedral. Early
in the last century it was the seat of
the great publishing houses; but, in
later years, these moved away to the
neighborhood of the Strand and Piec-
cadilly and left the “Row” to the book-
sellers of the metropolis. The origin
| of the name is variously accounted
for. According to some, the street
was so called from the rosary, or
paternoster, makers that dwelt there;
| others, however, say that it was so
named because all funeral proces-
slons, en route for St. Paul's, com-
menced their paternosters on entering
this street, and continued to say them
until they reached the gate of the
cathedral.
Quake Caused Earth to Drop.
Intense damage in the vicinity of
Yokohama, caused by the recent earth-
quake in Japan, was due to a drop of
four feet in the surfuce of the earth,
which may have resulted from activity
of the volcano on the Island of Oshima,
southwest of Yokohama, in the opinion
of Thomas A. Jaggar, Jr., volcanologlst
in charge of the Hawailan volcano ob-
servatory, who has returned to Hawali
from Japan, where he made a survey
ef the damage wrought by the tem-
blors. The death toll in the earth-
quake, tidal wave and fire was estl-
mated at 400,000 by Mr, Jaggar, and
the damage to property at $8,000,
000,000.
Acting With a Lion.
A Hollywood motion picture director
was trying to persuade a super to
wrestle with a lion.
“You neeeln’t be afraid,” he said,
“the beast is perfectly tame. He never
meat.”
“No: perhaps not, replied the per
spiring actor. “But that doesn't mear
that he may net have curiosity.”
