PENGUINS FEEDING. rke TfcM whra Ther Eater the Water. The appearance of the keeper, of tb penguins at the zoo, with his pall 'lire gudgeon, Is the signal for sudde and Intense excitement In the cages The penguins wave their little and waddle to the door, whence the; peer eagerly down the wooden step To 'Chisel A 'phone message from Beckley that "Chisel Chin" Brown of the Baleigh Herald, is elated over the that licker and sin won out in Fayette, of tto offlclal are traceable by stealane, etc. The man said his 1 name was "Chisel Chin" Brown and aaked us to roast him. We are Hinton Independent-Herald.

Mr. Brown is under lasting obligations to Rev. Wm. Sawyers for ommit- the roast. If he will only in capillary attraction means tha that stealage in Fayette county before I erted ffirou 8 the jury, start a temperance i Ttie hegrt ls to observed campaign against the low dives and In a cordial, or heartening, drink; a writing about something he knows tne(r nnme rom th ell resemblance to nothing about, our gratitude will know tooth marks.

Spirit means and Is also found in conspire, "to breathe together;" inspire, "to breathe In," and even In perspire, "tb breathe through." Impediment Is something against the foot.

The Raleigh twin, The Register, was exceedingly silent on that subject before the campaign.

The democratic candidate for legislature in Summers connty was Delected by 19. Summers is democratic and of course such a word as "stealage" would be most painful to Rev. Sawyers' feelings. How about Sunday mail? We can have it, if we want it and we are of the opinion that you want the church; be a bead master of a school, head a revolution! take up "arms" and prove to bo a that is, a and the chief (head) of the army. Corporal punishment Is bodily punishment; capital punishment is punishment by decapitation, or taking off the head.

A is, a cap- tlic same as Is, the head of a body of foot soldiers. A colonel Is one who has been crowned. The commander In chief, or head commander, compels the chieftains, or headmen of the enemj', to that is, surrender according to an agreement that is divided Into capitu- leading to the pool. The cormoran creaks aud swayg from to side and the darters poise their snaky head and spread their batllke wings. At thi water's edge the penguins do no launch themselves upoa the surface like other water fowl, but Initaatlj plunge beneath.

Once below water an 'astounding change takes place. The Blow, ungainly bird la transferred Into a swift and brilliant creature, bedded with of quicksilver, where the air cllugi to the close feathers, and flying through the clear and warelest depths with ar- rowy speed and powers of turning far greater than lu any known form of aerial flight The rapid and steady strokes of the wings are exactly similar to those of the air birds, while Its feet float straight out level with the body, unused for propulsion or even as rudders and as little needed in Its progress as those of a wild duck when on the wing. The twists and turns necessary to follow the active little fish are made wholly by the strokes of one and the cessation of movement In the other, and the fish are chased, caught and swallowed without the slightest relaxation of speed In a submarine flight which Is quite as rapid as that of most birds which take their prey In midair. In less than two minutes some thirty gudgeon are caught and swallowed below water, tbe only appearance of the birds on the surface being made by one or two bounds from the depths, when the head and shoulders leap above the surface for a second and then disappear. Any attempt to remain on the surface leads to ludicrous splashing and confusion, for the submarine bird cannot float' It can only fly below the surface.

Immediately the meal is finished both penguins scramble out of 0, RY, CO. $25.00 HJILEAGE TICKETS.

A fieady and heaJstfOiig ruler 1 sometimes makes people wish he was headless. To make headway against his foes he may have to rush headlong Into difficulties or take a header into the bnknowu sea of politics. Among some peoples one with the big head is likely to lose it. Under some the headship of the ship of state does not make headway against the head winds of events or around the "cape," or bcadland, just ahead. He may plunge into trouble over head and ears, and his opponents have to nut their heads togtther to bend him off, so as to prevent a head- on collision with another nation.

A letter of instruction said 'to have been sent to a British army officer, whi reported that Private Blank had lost his greatcoat, runs as follows: "The calculation of the value of a lost great coat should be made by deducting the value when worn out from the value when now, as given in article 75, 1S05 clothing warrant, dividing the remainder by the number of months the garment should wear, multiplying the quoitant by the number of mouths the garment has actually been worn and subtracting tbo sum thus obtained from tho total value of the new greatcoat. The balance is the amount that should be charged." A Sort of iVo Slan'a Land.

Australia's least Ituown anil least developed section is the northern territory. It Is a sort of no man's land. Its capital, Pnlmerston, contains more Chinese than Caucasians and is the only place in greater Britain where the Mongolian is the master and the white man the servant. The climate is very trying to whites, and the aboriginal blacks are of a fierce aud sanguinary disposition. Vast herds of buffalo, the descendants of a few experimentally liberated a century ago, roam over the plains, and the place will some day, it Is believed, be a sportsman's paradise.
