“Every man has a net with which
in the day he takes fish and at night
uses in the following manner: In what-

Bird and Boat Collide.
A flying albatross evilitled with a
vessel in Australian waters with such
force that the “trigger" incl-lug the

rudder released. The vessel v .lS travel-

the tlmc,:iml nsu result of lli-l sudden

took charge and caused the steamer to
sheer off her course. The engines were
quickly smppt-d and the whistle lilown
for aSslstunce. After a delay of about
five titliiiilw. however, the rudder was
secured again. On a subsequent trip
the rudder was found to be damaged
and the summer was withdrawn and

Roman “Hours."
The Romans divided the day-time
into twelve "hours." The exact length
of. these varied, of course with season
and latitude; but the first always be

' the seventh began at noon. and the
twelfth ended at sunset. The period.

LONDON, Aug. 12.-—El:he American
relief omclals in London are placing
little faith in the reports that. the
American prisoners in Russia have
been released and are now leaving
that country.
“The word we received yesterday
was merely a Latvian newspaper re-
port, forwarded by our representative
in Riga," said the secretary to Walter
L. Brown. European director of the
relief administration, this morning.
“We are keeping a‘,‘ vigilant'watch over
every possible exit the Americans
might take from Russia, and none
save Mrs. Marguerite Harrison has yet
reached Riga.
“This leads us to believe." he add-
ed, "that the Latvian report of their
release must be a product of the Bol-
