After the eels had exhausted their storage batteries on the horses, they fell an easy prey. Sometimes, however, the Indians lost a horse which had been weak- - ened by repeated shocks until it,, sank into the water. The common type of eel, known to every freshwater fisherman, breeds in the ocean. Young eels in the spring ascend rivers and streams by millions, sometimes traveling .overland t© infest^ every pond and tributary. •"TP"-- The Order of Learning The true ordier of learning should be first,|what is necessary; second, what isiusefm, and third, what is ornamerijtal. to revei$e this arrangement is lil^e beginning to feutfd at the tqp of the edifice.

With the re-e.stablishment of a United States naval squadron for European waters, Rear Admiral Arthur P. Fairfield sailed on his flagship, the Raieigh, from Norfolk, Va:, to take command of American rfaval vessels in the vicinity of Span-, ish ports. The policy of keeping United States squadron in European waters was discontinued in 1929.
