Navigating Under Water.

Submarine navigation seems to be GO
ing ahead Of late. Goubet Of Paris, who
four years ago constructed a submarine
boat with such success as to receive an
order from the Russian Government for
three hundred sets Of his machinery, has
now improved his device. In the Russian
boats the locomotion was effected by n
crew Of four men. working trcadles; now
electricity is the motcr, the speed obtain
ed being five knots. The crew can ac-
cordingly be reduced to an officer and
one man, who enter the craft at the top
by domc-shaped hatch, secured with
hinges and bolts, and fitting into rub
ber-lincd recess In reservoir is a sup
ply Of compressed air said to he sufficient
to last the two men for ten hours, while
the carbonic acid they give off is absorbed
by caustic potash distributed through the
boat In this, as in all submarine craft,
the object is not pleasure, for little OF
that is to be had, but warfare. AT one
end of the boat is fastened torpedo,
charged with 40 pounds Of dynamite,
arranged SO as to be operated from with

4 description of this boat given in a
recent number of Eaqueorii.g, shows
that there are seven glazed openings IN
the hull, with glass half an inch thick,
protected by external grating and inter
nal shutters. The two men sit back to
back ON the compressed air reservoirs.
The craft seems to be full Of machinery
except in the space occupied by the men,
and their heads 90 up into the dome.
But the boat can thus be made small and
compact, So rs to be rowed with oars II
the dynamo fails. There is a pump for
cxpelling watcr from the reservoirs,
when the boat has to rise, and these res

When the two men enter the boat they

An Attempted suicide by a Moulder-
Found I'm the Woods in the An
mex.
Louis Steogh of 70 St.John street, "a mould
er by trade, while laboring under a tempo
rary fit of insanity brought on by grief for
little child who died last week, attempted to

are feared.
Some employees of A. Hughes, the East Ha-
ven farmer, while coming from their work
yesterday afternoon, and while not far from
the Hughes homestead, discovered Steogh
lying face downward unconscious in a short
patch of woods. He was covered with blood
and at first the men thought that murder had
been committed. They picked the limp and
lifeless form up and in so doing his right
hand which had been cut above the wrist,
nearly fell off. 1t hung by thread of flesh
and it and the arm were a mass of clotted
blood. They tenderly carried him to the
Hughes house and Immediately telephoned
to the Grand street precinct for police aid.
Policeman Doody of the Fair Haven East
force was Immediately dispatched to the
scene with DR.. Park and the police .ambu-
lance. While aid was coming the man be-
came conscious and called wildly for his little
child. DR.. Park after suitably caring for
the man had him removed to the hospital for
further attendance. He is a steady man and
worked at Fitch's shop for the past three
years. He left the shop yesterday and was
Eext found as above described. He used a
razor in his suicidal work. His wife is much
FRUSTRATED over the sad event.

HOME RULE FOR IRELAND.

1AAI. UAAOstOne SILL We00ed TO HIS
Scheme.
LONDON, Oct. 4.-Mr. Gladstone in adj
dressing the deputation of Irish women who
called upon him at Hawarden to day with a
mammoth home rule petition denied the as
sertion that he had renowned his former at
titude by supporting the proposition for an
Irish parliament. The proposals of the late
government stood within the limits of i'm
per1al honors. The cause advocated by tbs
Reputation is the cause of order, peace and
legality. 1t was the hope of conducting to
such settlement that kept him in his pres

be prepared to withdraw from public life if
he believed his retirement would be better
for Ireland; but he had been unable to ar
rive at that conclusion. He denied the cor
rectness Of the term separation" SO unscru-
pulously used by its opponents to describe
the home rule proposal The promoters of
the home rule bill, he declared, never
thought of separation. Mr.. Gladstone point
ed out that Lord Salisbury's government was
now encouraging Irish land occupie1s to be-
lleve that judicial rents were to be reduced,
but referring to Lord Randolph Churchill's
address at hartford on Saturday re-
marked that the performances of that noble
There could be no doubt that it was to Eng
lands interest as we'll as to that of Ireland to
concede Ireland's requests. He avowed his
opinion that there was a stain upon England
in respect to her relations with Ireland which
it behooved her to remove. In conclusion he
expressed the hope that the triumph of their
cause might come with promptitude, bring
ing cheerfulness and joy, and that there
might be no intervening period of good

is not a new one to our theatre goers, but it
invites repetition and was received with even
more enthusiasm than last season. 1t is a
legitimate drama of remarkable strength and
is worthy of the high praise which has been
accorded it. The cast has been changed
somewhat this year, with tendency to
strengthen rather than weaken it. Mr.. Mayo's
Interpretation of the hero is simply grand.
To those who have identified him with
'.Davy Crockett" it was a surprise, but not
to those who knew of his earlier
training in Shakesperian roles. This
latest venture will not only
bring him financial success, but
proves him to be one of the very few artists
and thoroughly finished actors of the day
Mr.. James H. Taylor's admirable presenta-
ton of "Witold," the uncle of ''Nordeck,"
called forth repeated applause. He is
most of part thoroughly suited to him.
Miss Alice Fisher played the part of the
princess Zuiliski'' with dignity and won
her share of the honors of the evening Miss
Alice Lorimer, as wanda" although hard
ly filling the place of the lady who enacted
the same role last season, played the part
very creditably. Her description of her
first meeting with "Nordeck' was very
charming, and SO were her efforts
as peacemaker between the ''Nor-
deck and "Prince Leo" The
remainder of the cast was excellent, especial
ly Miss Frances Graham as Margaret" The
whole company showed the benefit of their

this evening, and those who wish to see the
most effective drama now on the stage should

BROOKLYN, Oct. A plainly dressed

of DR.. Mosely, 100 Grand street, at 7:30 this
morning for the purpose of having trouble
some tooth extracted. In the absence of DIR.
Moseley his assistant, Frances Eschanter,
undertook the operation. the woman, who
was of nervous temperament, expressed fears
of pain, but was assured that
no pain would be given. He thereupon
administered bromide of ethsr and performed
the operation. The woman failing to regain
consciousness Eschantier tried to rouse her,
but without success. Another futile attempt
was made upon the arrival of DIR. Moseley
and despite all efforts the patient died at 2
p. The police arrested Eschantier, who
stated that in his opinion the woman died
of heart disease. DIR. Hopkins, who was
called by Eschantier, gives as his opinion
that she died from an overdose of ether.
