Russia has tried experiments with
aluminum shoes for cavalry horses.
A few horses in the Finland Dragoons
were shod with one aluminum shoe
and three iron shoes each the former
being on the fore fool io some cases,
and on the hind foot io others. The
experiment lasted six weeks, and
showed that the aluminum shoes last
ed longer and preserved the foot better
than the iron ones.

n, War* St Cartier. Ctuuanlata and OSto
sew la the Greet Lakes.
W. 8. Harwood writes in St. Nicho
las of “The Gnat Lakes” Mr. Har
wood says:
Jacques Cartier, who shipped from
St Mato in 1554, explored the coast of
Newfoundland and made the circuit cd
the gulf at St Lawrence, and be did
much also, too, for New France in open
tog up negotiations with the many tribes
of Indians who thronged thousand*
strong and Mendly from all the regions
in and about Quebec and Montreal and
Ottawa and Kingston. Another mariner
of St Malo—Francis Greve—began the
colonization of the land. About 1570,
in France, Samuel de Champlain was
born, and when be reached the age of
early manhood he. too. joined in the
new world exploration in the region
above the great lakes The kings of
France were much interested in the
new land and did all in their power not
only to explore the region, but to colo
nise and develop it Champlain, in
1615, made an expedition up the Ottawa
river and penetrated as far as into
Georgian bay, thus touching on the wa
ters of Lake Huron.
In 1618 Etienne Brule, an old inter
preter, came into Champlain’s camp
with the news of the discovery of Lake
Superior. Lake Erie, with Ontario, was
probably discovered some time earlier
than thia Nicollet, in 1634, started in
* a canoe from the bead of Georgian bay,
skirted the eastern and northern shores
of Huron and at last found himself at
Gault Ste. Marie, or the falls of St
1 Mary, now shortened to “Soo”—the
I first white man, it is believed, to reach
this key to the noble lake beyond. He
> went as far as Green bay, on Lake Mich
igan, and so the various lakes at last
1 came into the actual knowledge of the
explorers and were no longer myths.
Bat as these French explorers con
i tinned 4o develop new and hitherto un
i dreamed of possibilities of empire the
. English began to take deep interest in
the region—an interest little less marked
' than that they were then taking in
» their schemes of coicniratfai in Vir
r ginia and Massachusetts. Again and
r again through the years that follow the
. threads cross and recross, not weaving
1 a beautiful garment cf harmony, but
tangling in a wretched snarl, a patch
work of disputes between the nations
Entanglement followed entangle
i meat, wan harassed the land, until at
last the English were masters of the
northern lake region for all time —un-
-1 less some day we shell see the stars and
1 stripes floating from the heights of
r Quebec.
> VW bivvntor of -Larrikin."
> The real origin and patentee cf the word
i “larrikin” was an Irish reporter named
O'Hea, who was employed on the Mel-
* bourns Argus in the early seventies. He
■ regulariy attended the city police court,
il bum he had as a colleague in the press
box Mr. Harald Dominick Ballew, who
represented the Melbourne Herald, and
1 who, as Mr. Kyrie Beltew, is now playing
* Clauds Mahmtta They were rivals in the
art of picturesque paragraph writing, ard
each was constantly on the alsrt for serv-
! toeable humorous iDridsnta.
( Mr. O’Hea esized upon the etongation
by aa Irish aregeant of polios of tbs fa-
1 mibarward “larking” into the three sylla
bled "larrikin” and utilised it for a vary
amusing paragraph The word did not
iniMdiMßlj FWBfaHh off wftli ths yvMnd
public, teat Mr. O’Hea drove it into dreu
tatton bycaawaastiy using it in Ma reports
as a synonym for the young Melbourne
attest rough. It was gradually accepted
and wentuaUy became izeorperated in the
Sw-*— . language.
