Groundhog in Bad.
WLLIMATIC, Conn., March 3.—
Weather sharps in this vicinity are
paying no attention to the ancient
groundhog legend this year. It is re¬
lated that one of these animals was
seen about soon after the middle of
January in Hampton and Chaplin. It
argued that he came out under the
impression that winter had already
passed because of the remarkably
mild weather and lack of snow. This
winter is the mildest in this section
since 1875.

U PHYSICIAN KILLED
WHEN AUTOS COLLIDE
Dr. E. L. Griffin’s Car and One Car¬
rying Assistant Fire Chief Come
Together With Fatal Results.
ATLANTA, March 3.—Dr. E. L.
Griffin, a well known physician here
is dead; Assistant Fire Chief Henry
P. Pressley is painfully injured and
his driver, J. K. Castelberry, of head¬
quarters fire company, is suffering
from bruises about the face and body
as the result of a collision at Hill and
East Hunter streets Sunday between
Dr. Griffin’s automobile and that of
Pressley, which was answering a fire
call.
Sveeral persons who saw the acci¬
dent said both machines were travel¬
ling at good speed and when the
crash came, Dr. Griffin was thrown
through the windshield of his automo¬
bile and so badly injured that he died
a short tmie after being taken to a
hospital.
Pnd of Fighting Galleys.
In the sixteenth century European
civilization was menaced by the Turks.
Moslem pirates were the peril of the
seas, of which they were fast gaining
control. This danger was averted and
destroyed by Don Juan, commander of
the Spanish fleet, and his allies, the
Italian squadrons and the Venetian
and Neapolitan fleets, at a naval battle
with the Turks in the bay of Lepanta.
The capture of the enemy’s flagship,
after the battle had raged an holtr
and a half, gave Don Juan assurance
of victory, so he hoisted the consecrat¬
ed banner of the Holy league at the
mast of the conquered galley, where
It could be seen both by friend and
enemy. The result was as Don Juan
expected—exultation on the part of
the Christians and depression and dis¬
couragement on the part of the Turks.
After a heavy loss on both sides the
Turkish armada was destroyed and
Don Juan and his galley, the Reale.
were the masters of the Mediterra¬
nean, Civilization was saved and the
Reals became a ship of destiny. But
at Lepanto was sung the swan song
of the galley; henceforth the sailing
vessels with their wind-tossed can¬
vases were to rule the seas.
France’s First Lady Mayoress.
___In Mme. d’Kvry France possesses
her first lady mayoress. The commune
which unanimously appointed her as
Its representative Is Nampcel, a little
commune of the Aisne. Mme. d’Evry
attended the general meeting of the
mayors of the army zone held In Paris
recently. She had a moving tale to
tell of a village completely destroyed
by the Germans, and of a population,
or what Is left of It, living In the cel¬
lars or in the ruins capable of afford¬
ing some kind of shelter. Mme. d’Evry,
In simple, eloquent language, did full
Justice to her theme.

Approaching “Perpetual."
Of course, there is still unsolved the
old riddle of perpetual motion, which
thousands of cranks have spent their
lives upon in the past. Scientists tell
us that there is no perpetual motion
known even to astronomy, so that it
will never be discovered on earth ! The
world, they say, Is slowly checking Its
speed round the sun, and its diurnal
revolution, but so slowly as to be Im¬
perceptible within historic times, and
the sun they say is a dying fire which
will be extinct In a few hundred billion
years. Yet the discovery of radium,
with Its apparently Inexhaustible ener¬
gy, rather shook the scorn with which
the Ideal of perpetual motion used to
be regarded, and If a machine could
be constructed to go for twenty years,
on Its own as it were, It would be
“perpetual” enough for all ordinary
purposes!

The Re ily-Taylor Company
New Orleans
cenfly said that ft wohlfl ptbbabiy be
a tong time before 60-cent tin would
again be seen. Before the war the
, metal was selling at a little over 80
cents a pound in New York. It has
advanced by leaps and bounds nntii
a month ago the New York price was
nominal at over $1 a pound, wltb the
future shipments from the east up to
05 cents—both unheard of heights.
This has been caused by the fact that
the world's output of tin has not been
enongh. In fact, statistics show that
in recent years this has been at about
a standstill.
Another Paradox.
“I have noticed In my little Journey*
from bedtlipe to bedtime,” said the al¬
most philosopher, “that the fellow who
prides himself on being blum In his
speech can ask some very pointed
questions.”
