against the coast In a station of Cardiff
and went down with many OF the crew.
Twenty-two persons In all are known to
hive been saved. "A seaman named O'Neill,
onc Of the shipsrecked sailors, who arrived

an effort to free her by ma nning the pumps.
but IT was useless. and the Captain ordered
ail hands to the rigging and arrangement ts
were made for leaving the vessel Two
lifetoats were smashed and the crew at
tempted to launch the others, which was u
dihicu!t.task In the dangerous sea running.
When one Of the boats was launched, the
ships carpenter and an apprentice jumped
in. Other members OF tho crew attempted
to follow. but the boat was torn from tho
vessels side and quickly disappeared. An.
other boat was launched and three mel.
got Into 1t, when it was p,ized by an im-
mense wave and the occupants thrown into
the foaming sea.
BY almost supreme efforts the men gained
the ossvturned boat, and after m excit-
Ing struggle righted IL and scrambled In.
Being thrown In the vicinity OF the
ship. they graspad ropes and held on tcna-
ciossly until O'Clock In the morning, when
they were rescued. The lest OF the crew
could not leave the rigging to assist then !,
as they were clinsing to it for their lives.
Their perilous position being discovered

AN ENGINEER LEARNS FROM AN INSECT.

An EN1iNEEh LEARNS FROM AN INSECT.
1t has been said that the operations of
the spider suggested the arts of spinning
and weaving to man. That may be
doubtful, but its quite certain that hint
from an insect was due the invention Of .
machine instrumental in accomplishing
one OF the most stupendous works OF
modern times tho excavation of the
Thames tunnel. Mark Isembard Brunei
the great engineer. was standing one day.
about three quarters of q century ago, in
. ship yard watching the movements OF
an animal known as the tercdo navalcs-
in English tho naval wood. d.worm-wh.n n q
brilliant thought suddenly occurred to
him. lie saw that this creature bored
its way into the piece of wood upon which
it was operating by means of very ex-
traordinary. mec. an.cal apparatus.
Looking nj the animal ottentively thro ,gL
. microscope, he found that it was cover
ed in front with pair Of valvular she Is,
that, with its foot as purchase, it com.
municated rotary motion and forward
impulse to the valves, which, acting upon
the wood like gimlet, penetrated itc
substance; and that a. the particles OF
wood wero loosed, they passed through q
ltissure in tho foot, and thence through
the body of the borer to its mouth, where
they wero expelled. Here" said Brunei
to himself, ''is the sort to thing want,
Can produce 1t in an artificial form?'
ie forthwith set 10 work, and the final
results of his iabore. after many failures,
was the famous boring shield with which
tho Thames tunnel was excavated. This
STORY was told by Brunei himself, and
there is no reason to doubt its truth. Tho
keen observer can draw useful lessonn
from the humblest of tho works of nature,
without cutting them up alive. New

Geo. q. Baker shows Detroit How His
Submarine boat Operates.
Detroit special: The first trial which the
submarine boat built here some time ago
took place In the Detroit River. The In
ventor, George G. Baker. and his electri-
clan, Mr.. Goddard. ran the boat. After u
suitable location had been picked out. the
time the boat began to disappear from
sight. After she became submerged moth
Ing more was seen Of her for two hours.
Where she was or what she was doing the
sightseers could only surmise, There was
not a ripple on The surface OF the river, nor
any disturbance which would indicate that
mans genius was attempting to fathom the
subject OF submarine boating by Il wholly
new contrivance. About s O'Clock the little
monster again appeared on the surface,
none the worse for its first thorough test.
The experiences OF the boat and its two
passengers, as told by its inventor. are as
follows: when We went down our boat
kept perfectly even keel, a thing which
has never been realized in other submarine Q
boats. All other inventions of the kind
generally dive down into the depths, while
our boat never tilted one way or the other.
We ran up and down the stream at will. or
course we experienced some difficulty in
making headway against the strong cur
rent, but no more than we had calculated
upon. We experienced not u particle OF
discomfort

BLIND CHILDREN AT THE DOG SHOW.

The Boston Transcript gives tho fol.
lowing description Of visit paid by
some blind children to the recent dog
show: Perhaps the dogs had been noti.
fed that special visitors were expected
this fornoon and had therefore put on
their company manners, for when the
twenty-five or thirty little blind children
from the Perkins Institution came in the
brutes seemed to understand perfectly
that they were TO be more patient than
ever. Tho chi!drcn's party broke up
into groups of four or FIVE. with their
care-takers, and wandered about among
the kennels, stopping now and then to
caress the more gentle animals. How
delighted the children were when they
were allowed to stretch out their hands
and stroke the soft furry coats! and they
prattled away in the hnppiest fashion.
Two hours passed all too quickly for fhe
children in this way, and at twelve o'clock
they took their departure.
