A youHg Roumanian engineer thinks
he has solved the problem of submarine
navigation. A few weeks ago this gentle
man submitted 10 the consideration OF a
technical commission, appointed by the
Roumanlan Government, his model of u
tish-shaped steel boat, provided with the
means Of locomotlon and stored with air
sufficient for the consumption Of lts crew
during period Of submersion not exceed
ing fifteen hours. The stock cf air, how
ever, can be renewed at will by raising the
vessel to point form SIX to nine feet be-
meath the surface of the water, whence, by
means OF pneumatic pumps and slender
iron tube passed through practical circu-
lar trap IN its roof, it will be able to take
in ITS atmospheric provision. The interior
Of the boat Is Illuminated brilliantly from
stem to stern by electric light thrown upon
powerful retlectors. With The aid OF this
light 1t will be enabled to search for torpe-
does at but little risk to Itself, and to con-
duct It's own offensive operations against
hostile fleets with the utmost precision.

Tony Pastor in Trouble.

Tony Pastor, of New York, who Is now
with his ininlitable variety combination,
making a tour of the principal cities of the
Union, is recognized as the leading char
acter vocalist and variety performer OF the
United States. He owns and runs f1rst-
class theatre on Broadway, New York
City, and has gathered about him the best
troup of variety artists that could be OBJ
tanned. The company has just completed
a brilliant engagement at the Walnut
Street Theatre, Philadelphia, and after the
present tour they will reappear in Tony
Pas or's own Theatre in New York City.
Mr.. Pastor is the originator of his peculiar
school of character singing, and has made
himself immensely popular, having realiz
ed by his talent an immense fortune.
The writer of this article met MIR. Pas
tor recently at the Bingham House, in
Philadelphia, and found him as genial in
private az he is amusing before the public.
During our conversation / inquired as to
his physical health, aud he replied that,
notwithstanding the strain upon him in
the discharge of his professional duties, 1t
was excellent. Hehad occasionally severe
pains, either the result OF rheumatic attacks
or colds, but any complaints Of that char
acter never troubled hlm long, as he had
found out q remedy for all such annoying
affections. | asked him what the remedy
was, and he replied, "St. Jacobs Oil.' |
then learned from Mr.. Pastor that he con-
sidered the Great German Remedy an ex-
cellent preparation for the cure or relief
of rheumatism, and thai it was about
the only thing used among professional
people for that distressing complaint. He
took bottles of it with hun whenever he
went travelling, and would not be without
it, and knew that it was very popular with
a number of members OF his own company.
A conversation held subsequently with
various members of the organization re-
veaed the fact that st. Jacobs Oil had
bean performing most invaluable service
for them in the way of curing them OF
rheumatism. Nearly every artist IN the
troupe used il, and was enthusiastic in Its
praise, and the writer was really forced TO
the conclusien that Tony Pastor was GER
talnly in luck in having so valuable an
article known and employed by his in
lmitably good company of performers, Tor
1t enabled every one to be always IN his
place. thus lnsurlng comfort to the mana
cement and genuine satisfaction to the
public. Tony Pastor would certainly be
in trouble without st. Jacobs Oh. AT
least, other managers whose artists have
been temporarily unsuppled, have noticed
the difference between ST. Jacobs Oil In
stock and st. Jacobs Oil out OF stock
among the members OF their companles.-

and box of sawdust. Dip the articles to
be cleaned in the acid, then remove them
into the water, after which rub them
with sawdust. THIS Immediately changes
them to a brilliant color. If the brass Is

AGRICULTURE.

How TO GET APPLES ON "OFF' YEARS. -
To undertake to change the bearing year
of an old orchard is something of a task,
but not so great q task out what 1t would
pay in the long run. With an old orchard
the first thing to be done is to remove the
blossoms or small fruit. A liberal dres-
sing OF manure should be applied to the
ground to induce vigorous growth, and
IL would be all the better If applied the
fall before, as the late fall and early spring
rains will assist IN carrying the fertlhxing
matter down to the roots If applied late
IN the spring it will be of but little use the
first year. Different varieties will require
different treatment, or rather varieties that
ere not very profuse bearers will require
more vigorous and thorough treatment
than those that are. For instance, the
Famuse or snow apple is a very profuse
bearer, and if the blossoms are removed
the coming spring, the tree well pruned
and manure applied early so as to get the
benefit of the spring rains, it will be very
certain to bear fair crop the next year,
and very probably tull crop. That treat
ment for single year will be likely to full
ly established the habit, If the few bios
SONS that appear the following year are re-
moved, 1t will be likely to gel the bearing
habit so thoroughly established that it will
be likely to continue without further care.
With varieties that are not so profuse in
their habit it is frequently necessary to re-
sort to more heroic treatment. With such
trees, after removing the blossoms or small
fruit, some time between the middle of
June and the 10th of July, If the tree Is
growing, vigorously (but not otherwise), a
cut should be made entirely around each
OF the limbs, cutting entirely through the
bark. A second cut should be made about
8 quarter of an inch from the fist, and the
intervening section of bark carefully re-
moved. A new bark will be forlhed in q
short time, but the downward flow of the
sap will be arrested and the formation OF
fruit buds so encouraged that trees so trea-
ted will be very certain to be covered with
bloom the following sprlng. To confirm
the habit il may be necessary to repeat the
treatment With old orchards, containing
large trees, few farmers will want to spend
the time necessary to effect the change,
but with young trees it Is but little trouble
TO remove the blossoms, and by giving
them the treatment described for few
years thoroughly establish the bearing hab-
1t in the odd years, and thus double the
value of their returns. If the ring Of bark
is properly renewed no harm will be done
to the trees, even if repeated IN alternate
years for long lime. 1t is fact that the
bark can be removed from the entire body
If thrifty apple tree during the latter
part of June or the fore part of July with
out any injury to the tree. By taking one
half or any part of the top OF tree and
giving it the above described treatment,
the part so treated will have its bearing
changed, and the tree inade to produce a
crop of apples on one or the other part
each year.
