Therefore the men of Jabesh said to Nahash, To-morrow we will gome out unto you, and ye shall do With us all that seemeth good unto you--They did not intimate at what time of the day they would come. As they had the whole of the day, it was riot necessary to designate the hour. They let the messengers of Nahash believe that they were go- gb to accede to the terms of Na- 11.

The herring catch of England last year was the greatest on record. Last year's apple crop of 'the United States approximated 86,300,- 000 barrels. Cuba is the greatest consumer of raisins among the Spanith-Amer- ican countries. A new wire fastener to hold a cork in a bottle also may be used to draw the cork. In proportion to population Japan has more 'suicides than any other civilized nation. If necessary the nut trees of the world could supply nourishment to its entire population. India has a new law limiting the working hours of adults to twelve a day and of children to six. Cubas' deposits of iron ore are estimated to contain all the way from 2,000,000,000 to 3,000,000,000 tons. A clock motor inside a new de- coy duck makes it swim slowly about and emit the call of the liv- ing birds. An Alpine blacier has been con- verted into an ice mine by a pra war in a German newspaper. The new 800 ton submarines are: armed' with ' fourteen = poundef quick-firing guns on disappearing mountings, one abaft the conping tower. Fach gun rests on a conical pivot, and the to- tal weight of weapon apd: mount, is about thirteen and one-half bun dredweight. How Guns Are Fired. The time occupied in making the gun.ready for action 'is twenty seg. onds, redkoning from fhe moment! the boat comes to the surface to the - | firing of the first shot. | Bach weap- on is served by three men. No. 1. hands up the ammunition from the watertight and collision-proof| magazine, Nov 2 loads, and No. 3 wim and fires. The gun can be ele-' vated to 00 degrees, and its charag- teristidggare similar to those of Krupp's. When the boat is about - to submerge the gun collapses on its supports and swings down to its' resting place, the operation be- ing pdrformed by a-single lever. A watertight hatch them closes over the cavity: The weapon is brought up to firing position by spring rams which also come into play by a single. movement. Submarine Armor Plate: The new submarines have armor protection over their vital parts, viz., the conning tower, and that portion of the hull which is exposed when the vessel is awash.
