A DIVER DESCENDING TO THE WRECK.
The reason we cannot work while the sea Is

ocean swell the boats rise and fall as much
as ten feet with every wave. Now, the divers

Oh, yes, our men have been all over the decks
of the Oregon. Their first business was to
anchor buoys and set guide lines, so that the
diver need not waste time in cropping his way
about the ship. You see, there is no
north, south, east or west to guide
him on the oceans bottom He drops
down on the vessels desk rrecisely as spider
drops from the ceiling. He fastens his line
there, and, like a spider, continues to lay
lines that will guide him on his return. The
greatest obstacle in the way Of the divers
work is the tremendous air pressure required.
which is over sixty pounds to the square inch.
The air pumps are driven by steam power,
which is something exceptional in diving
work. Mr.. Merritt being called away, left
us with one of the divers who has been down

short, broad-shouldered man with deep
chest, bronzed face, keen, deeply-set eyes and
square jaws. He was inclined to be reticent,
but willingly donned the great copper helmet
and diving armor with its leaden-soled shoes
to enable the artist to make the sketches pre-
sented herewith. After considerable ques-
tioning he described his visit to Mrs Nor

There have been many advances in art In
