DEAD RECKONING.
Ono Way of Determining a VeeseFe
Course on an Ocean Voyage.
Dead reckoning simply meanieth
computadon a a ship's longitude and
own to the seaboard througli its net- , latitude from her moveraents as rte
al sourcewhich could be made ' Corded in the log and without having
tillable. recourse to astronomical observation%
The chairman then called on B. D. Tile chief elements from which the
reckoning is made are these:
The point of departure—that its• the
latitude and longitude sailed from or
last determined—the course or area.
don sailed in as ascertained by the
Compass, the rate of sailing, measured
from time to time by the log, and -the
time elapsed:
The various principles or methods
followed in tallying at the reckoning
are known among navigators as "plain
sailing" and "middle latitude sailing."
Ilovrever, the data thus obtained are
always Liable to considerable errors by
reason of currents, leeway, fluctuation9
of the wind and changes in the decal -
elation of the coeSpass. The resulte
arrived at by dead reckoning, th_eria
fore, must of necessity be cerrected as
often as possible by observation of the
beavenly bodies. No navigator would
risk relying wholly or the; method of
determining his position on an ocetui
voyage.—New York Times.
Detwerler, the father of the movement,
ho expressed his gratification. at the
yeat interest manifested in the meet-
ttg, and read a -pamphlet, which has
`den pretty widely circulated, through -
tet Canadss, and which outlines the
, reject and tells of the great advan-

en.

• r. Detweiler held. to be urgent and
a strongly advocated the inetitution
f a movement to smite the expres-
tion of public opinion, and the or-
-ehnization of an influential deputa-
tion to -wait upon the Ottawa authori-
ties and relieve them from the pres-
sun "manufactured by •contractors
aped others in. favor of the inapracti-
Oa le Georgian Bay route."
• At the conclusion of Mr. Detweil-
mes address a resolution was unani-
pously carried by standing vote. It
•hieclared among other things: That is
le of the utmost importance that the
Porainion Government proceed to de-
felop with the least possible delay,
an ocean ship waterway by means of,
this natural route to the head of the
lakes at Port Arthur and Volt Wil-
liam.
"Further that this meeting protesta
against the apparent atteropt to stain-
tbe people in favor of the so -
healed Georgian Bay Canal, which,
en the opinion of this meeting and in
the opinion ci enainent engineers and
et perts, s n,ot, peat:Ace', is, in fact, a
• Waste of Money, and a waste of time
eta -well as involving a tremendo-us
ex enditure for 'totally inadequate re-
ts.
"That something should be done of
a preatieal natdra, is emphasized by
the fact that the Brie B'arge Canal

ready for actual business within three

"That. transportation of graan, mer-
chandise, etc. from the great west
vv,ould be reduced in eost by from
one-half to two-thirds, increasing the
value of every acre of land in the
Canadian northwest."
President J. W. Lyon of Guelph, in
speaking to the motion, said the time
ot action was now, and we should pre-
pare for the future by making a water-
way to the seaboard.

"What is there funny about that?"
he asked. "I don't quite catch t.he

Arm In Arm With a Tigress.
It is related of Sir Edward Bradford
that he once walked arm in arra, so tO
speak, with a tigress. He was out
shooting and, always a fearless spite
-
man, had come to close qttarters with
his quarry. He fired, and either the
ball failed to take effect or but slight.
ly wounded the animal. She sprang
at hina and seized his left arra above
the elbow. The pain must have been
terrible, but Sir Edward kept cool,
and, realizing that it would' be death
to drag his mangled arm away and al-
low her to spring afresh at him, he de-
liberately walked a few agonizing
paces until his coarade was able to
take aim and kill the brute. Thus his
courage saved his life, though the am-
putation of his arm at the shoulder
proved necessary.

London invented an apparatus for put-

success. When put in action the steam

a distinct feeling of the hopelessness
of It all when the players lay down
upon the floor and benches. • Only Bill,
a vvhite bull terrier mascot, showed
signs of liveliness. It was cold in the
dressing room, and a trainer shook the
ashes in the stove. He used a poker:
the end of whlcia became red hot.
When finally he laid down the metal
rod the red whitened, but the heat re-
mained: Bill, deciding'that the Poker
was t� be played with like a stick,
caught tbe' heated end in his mouth.

TACT OF AN ACTOR.
Sethernat Happy Thought and the Un-
ruly Gallery Gods.
It was in the year 1863 or 1864, Dur-
ing the summer months Sothern, with
John T. Raymond and several other
well known actors. occupied the,local
theater of a seaside summer resort, to
which he and his company drew a
houseful of people several nights in
the week to hear and see them act—
rehearse It really was in preparation
for their next winteee New York sea-
son—the most important of their plays.
The little building had. of course, a
gallery, and in the gallery the "gods"
became so obstreperous on occasions
that it was with great difficulty the
Play could be proeeeded with. The
ringleader, a well known rough of the
town, was a man named 13111 Hanra-
han. One night a happy inspiration
seized Sothern. Having learned the
name of this prominent member of the
rowdy element, he addressed him in
the raidst of the most unearthly noises
as fellows: "Mr Banratmn, will you
be good enough to take cbarge of the
gallery and keep order for me? I shall
feel very, grateful "
The result was magical. Bill be-
came at once an official of the theater
and as such cracked the heads of a
few of his erstwhile fellow rioters
with such good effect that it was only
a little time before the best of order
prevailed.

Notifying the God.
One of the odd tbings the visitor to
Burma will notice is the large 'number
of bells about the pagodas. These
bells are usually hung on sacred posts
e, few feet above the ground. They
ate sweet toned, as all Burmese bells
are. but they are not furnished with
tengues. The worshiper who comes to
pray before the pagoda strikes one of,
these bells with a wooden mallet. This
Is to attract the attention of the god.

' Origin of the Mess Rose.
The reputed origin of the moss rose,
according to the Persian legend, is so
pretty a tale that it will have a ro-
mantic interest for all who love that '
old world and delightful member of
the great rose family. It appears that
in the long ago the angel whose task
It was to tend the Solara wearied
with his labors, fell asleep beneath a
rosebush and on waking, refreshed
with its perfume and the shade it had
afforded him, bade it ask for any boon
It wished. "Give us," said the roses,
"some further charm," and the angel,
stooping, picked up some of the moss
on wbich he had been lylng an
'veloped the flowers with it, telling
them that this green covering, being
the emblem of modesty and humility,
would make the moss rose the fairest
of its species and its queen for all time.

so bitter in his retorts on ber that he
was ouce forbidden her presence.
After lie had''been absent for some
time a few of hie friends entreated her
majesty to receive him back into favor,
engaging for hilt that he would be

however, Pace was as bad as ever.
"Come on, Pace," said the queen in
a gracious humor. "Now we shall hear
of our faults."
"No, madam.," said Pace. "I never
