In physics am natural history there
are opportunities to direct and con
trol the out-of-school activities ot
young people of which the enthusias
tic teacher of science is not slow to
avail himself. In describing the in
genuity of boys, a writer in the At
lantic Monthly gives the following:
One of the most astonishing facts of
the time is the ingenuity of boys in
constructing electrical apparatus, with
but a few hints and out of the most
meager material. ' I know boys who
have belt linea of electric tramways
clrculatiaj iu their garrets, and a
boy who, last year, was the despair
of his teachers, now deserved recog
nition in the manual training exhibit
as the clever Inventor of a mo3t in
genious electrical boat. An Invitation
to boys to bring to school products ot
their own ingenuity or the natural
hlitory specimens that they have col
lected will result in an exhibition
which, in variety and quality, will be
a revelation to one who is not used to
following them In these Interests.

of the World.
Is Not a Carjdidate and Does Not
Want to Mix Up In tbc flf
falrs of Government.
New VotMC, S-pt. 20. Tho Evening
Post prints tho following interview
with Admiial Dowey:
'They are w splendid lot," tho ad
miral said, --pe iking of his men, "tho
vory pick: tho limst in our navy, and
that means tho tot in tho world. Do
fore I got to Manila tho archb.shop.

were tho scum of tho earth, blood-
thir-tv lot of eutt uoals, who would
m
destroy anj-thiiii; in their pith Later
on, when I did get I bore," said the ad
miral with a knowing smile, "tho
archbishop e.ime on I) -ard one day
while 1 had a h.ttttlio i nt drill, tho
very flame oattalion that win parade
in Now York. The ai ehbi.iijop wont
on tho bridge and watched them
ciosoly. 1 knew ho was admiring
them and 1 said to i im: 'Well, what
do 3'ou think of our American sailors?'
'They are splendid,' lio said: 'I liave
seen the men of mosi nv.e?,but ntver
anything like these. They ate mag
nificent: I cannot understand it such
splendid young follows. How does it
happen V
"v ell," said the admiral, "wo look
for tho bet men, we come closer to
our men, wo treat ttiem bitter tnau
other couutrios and we pay th m bet
ter."
"Then I c tiled a man and aid to
him: 'How much do jou get a mo th'r'
"Ho !-aluted and said, 'Eighty dol
lars, sir.' Tho achbishop was aston
ished. You know $8U would pay
whole shipload of Spaniards. After
that tho archbishop had a very great
respect for us aud became very
friendly.
"Il re I have a picture of G-jncral
Luin which was given to mo by the
arch bisuou. "
The admiral then sent an orderly
for the picture of the Philippine gen
eral who was "murdered by order of
Aguinaldo," as ho said The picture
was that of a negro in a Fort of mili
tary uniform. On tho back was an in
scription in Spanish to tho archbishop
of Manila, Father Bernardino Me
salado. .It was signed by Luna. Ad
miral Dewey then said Luna was the
best man tho Fi.ipinos had.
Filipinos Oueer Lot.
"It was a plot," ho s i id, "to assas
sinate him. A crack swordsman was
placed as sentry and when Luna ap
peared ho simply slabbed him. But
these fellows all," said the admiral,
"are a queer let. Thty wcro simply
servants and stablemen ar.d Aguinaldo
was a junior clerk in the navy yard.
Ho is a prettj smart fellow. I know
him pretty we. I: in fact, wo were great
friend-, and as a matter of fact he has
ngt tho brains. The-e are peop-.e bo
bind him, some of them lawyers acd
able fellows, ho make a tool of Ag
uinaldo. Here, by I've w::y, is a cane
which l.e presented to me," ami the
admiral prod need a thick bl .ck click,
carved nnd resen'ib'ing ():-isrt dog oak
more than anything- e!f-e.
"I thought," said tno aJmiral, "th it
this thing in tho Philippines would be
over before this, as it shouid have
been. I can't imagine how lhey have
stood out until now. Of course, there
was the rainy season, and I suppose
little was-done. One groat trouble
out thero lias been that General Otis
has tried to do too much. I told him
so. lie wants to be. general, governor,
ju ige and everything o so and have
hold of the irons. No man cau do
that. This is the great trouoie. It is
nough for a man to do one tiling, to
be one thing, but when a man tries to
do everything it is easy to imagine
the result.
"The fight in the Pudi opines should j
be easil5" endtd. Tne people have
been so oadly treated for btich a
eogth of time by the Spiniarda that
they are distrustful. This is the great
difficulty iu doaling with thom. Where
we h ivo met them and they have been
in such contact with us rs to learn
that we mean to treat them woll;
where they hvo seen th t we mean
what wo say, thero ii no trouble. They
stand by us all the time. All of them
will learn this in time. They will get
from under the ii iluecce of Aguinaido,
or rather t'jose people who are behind
Aguinaldo, who, as I said before, is a
mere tool .
"D.i I think tho Filipinos are fit for
self-govern me uty
"Well, no; not just now; they prob
ably will be in a very little time. Tney
a e very queer people a very queer
mixture. M ny of them aro quite
civil iz 3d and good ucopie, hut I do not
think they are tit for -elf eovernment
just yet. But w h n I say that, I must
add at the same time that it is my
candid opinion that thy are m re
fitted for it than th Cubans,? hat they
are a hotter people th vn tho Cubans in
every wv. I do wish, however, that
the whole busincas was settled, and I
think that after a little the Filipinos
will take kindly lo us "
Dewey Not a Stfttemiiiin.
It was suggested to the admiral
that the democratic slate had been
settled wiuh Admiral D-weyfor the
presidency and General Wheeler for
the vice presidency
"Well," jaid the admiral, "wo
should make a pretty mess of it. Gen
eral Wheeler, of course, has had some
trainiog in the political school, but
iht-n he is a West" Pointer I had for
gotten that, die would want to run
everything aa bo would a regiment
nnd, of course, would raako a splendid
moBS of it. You canuot run a govern
ment as you would a regiment."
"Well, ndmlral," nuggeMted tho re
porter, "it would not be. -ueh n chnnge
from tho ship Olymp a to the hip of
stato."
"Ye," said tho admiral, "it would
bo n very great change. I am not a
politician, f am a Miilor, my training
has boon all that way. I uni at homo
on my ship. I know my business, or
at least nhould know it, and I do not
want to mix up In the affairs of the
government. I am perfectly satisfied
to llvo and dlo a simple sailor who
tries to do his duty. I am not a poli
tician, I cannot make a speech oven; i
wish I could, but I have to bo con
tented with rnj lot."
Some ono said just ihen to tho ad-
mirul that bis son win reported to
n vo made a statement to tho effect
that his father was a uyed-in-the-wool
republican.
Tho admiral laughed outright and
pointed to a piece of wood laying on
tho deck some yards Htvay, at tho
same timo saying: "My son knows as
much about what ni' politics nre as
that siit k."
The admiral would not Fay a word
about tho alleged interference of tho
G rman admiral, D.eder chs, at
Manila.
Suattorn St Olllrrn. -DEN'VKR,
Colo . Sept. t(i A Bpecial
to tho Nog from Trinidad, Colo., says:
A committee from the squattors on
tho Maxwell land grant in Colorado
today met tho posse of deputy United
States marshals sent from Denver to
evict them from the lands they have
occupied at tho mouth ef Stonewall
valley.
The officers were informed that two
or three of their number could proceed
and servo the writs of ojectment, but
tho posseo must go no further. The
settlers arc organized and well armed
and apparently mean business.
The deputies have camped where

BE? ORE TIME OF BELLS.
The S.nn(b Whtc:: Calle l to Cliurch la
Oldau Times.
Before the time of bells various in
struments were used to summon con
gregations to worship. In Egypt they
are said to have followed a Jewish
custom In using a trumpet. m In some
Oriental churclies a kind of rattle
gave the signal. In monasteries monks
took It in turns to go round the cells
calling the inmates to their devotions
by knocking with a hammer, which
was called the "awakening instru
ment." Bells of one kind or another
are, however, of very great antiquity,
having been used in religious cere
monies by many" of the ancient nations
as a means of honoring their gods and
summoning them to the feasts. For
example, the fra--t of Osiris and Isis
waa always announced by be' Is. Fi.ny
says that bells were in- use lone be
fore his time, being called "Tin tin
nabula." The use of small bells
(nolae) in England, tr.ys. Wil.ir.m of
Malmesbury, may be traced Lick cs .'a;
as th fifth century, and it is clear
from Bede that eveii those of the larg
