War Under Water.

WASHINGTON. March l3-It looks as
II the navy were at last to have sub
marine boat. The naval chief OF ordin-
ance. Commodore w. T. Sampson. will
soon ask for designs for this unique and
useful form OF war craft. He is at lib
erty to use the money which stands to
the credit Of armor and armament in
building and experimenting with the
submarine boat.
Although the subject is not an untried
one. the coming experiments are expect
ed to develop many new things. Sub
aquatic craft have been tried with var
ious degrees Of success in this countr,
and abroad. The most acceptable oi
those tried ie that built and operated b,
a Chicago man named Baker. and i,
was this boat which spurred the de
partment to go further in the search foI
successful submarine ship. The intro

Submarine Photography.

A short time ago Louis Boutan
brought himself to the knowledge of
scientific naturslists by undertaking
an exploring tour of the Red Sea,
from which he brought back strange
and curious collection of fish aud shells,
embracing several specimens entirely
unknown. Continuing his researches
on the coast of France, Mr.. Boutan as.
sumed Divers costume in order to
observe at the bottom of the sea the
metamorphoses of certain mollusks i'm
possible to cultivate in aquaria. He
was struck with the wonderful beauty
of submarine landscapes, and resolved
to photograph what he could, .since'a
Simple description would SAVIOR too
much of an over vivid imagination. At
first he worked In shallow water with
water tight apparatus, and the clear
ness of the water allowed him sufi-
cient light to sensitize the plates. But
proportionally as the water deepened
clearness diminished, and the motion
OF the waves Cloudeu his proofs. Thvn
the young scientist conceived the idea
of utilizing magnesium inIsan appa-
ratus of his own invention. This ap-
pa. ;;;;S...a!-= Consists essentially IN barrel
filed with oxygen and surmounted by
aglass bell containing an alcohol lamp.
On the flame of the lamp, by means Of
mechanical contrivance, powdered
magnesium is thrown, hsring as often
as view is taken. The barrel is
pierced with holes on the lower side
in cuch manner that as the oxygen di-
minishcs tho sea water enters, so pre-.
serving the equilibrium between ex-
ternal and internal pressure. By the
aid of this machine he has already
made great progress in direction new
to naturalists, and one likely to con-
fer permanent benefits in the results
obtained by tn eir science. Frank Les,

M>>..sseriui sireusm.

Polydamas, Of Thessa1is, was a man
OF extraordinary strength and stature.
As Hercules had done, he alone, with.
out arms, killed an enormous lion that
was devastating the valleys of Mount
olympus. With one hand Polydamas
could hold bacL = ch.-:c. dawn ny
two horses. He could break the trunk
Of tree as any one would break
small stick. -.
The King of Persia, Darius l., wish
ing to witness the feats Of this marvel
GUS man, called him to his court; he
opposed TO him three of the ststeliest
men OF his army. Polydamas killed
the three by simply giving theEi a slap
on the ears he was about to slap the
faces OF afew more when the KNg,
satisfied, stopped him. One day he
seized u bull by one of his hind feet,
and the animal did not escape until it
had left it's hoof in Polydamas's hand.
Like Milo, he died through over-conf-
iience in his strength. He attempted
to support mass of rock that had
given way, but he got buried under it
and died.
Also in tho sixteenth century there
lived another remarkably strong man,
major, named Barsabas. One day ho
took up an anvil weighing 500 pounds
and hid it under his cloaks. Often, to
nmuse his comrades, he went through
the rifle drill with cannon. He could
crush between his fingers the limbs of
big animals. One day, seeing crowd
looking at an enormous dancing bear,
he offered to wrestle with the animal.
The mmjor threw the bear down sew
cral. times, and, Judging il unworthy of
further struggle, slew the animal with
his fist, and carried it away on his
shoulders, amid the cheers of the
crowd. Another day, seeing several
officers of his regiment surrounded by
nm angry crowd, he ran to them, knock
ing people down right and left, as a

crowd, exasperated, turned round on
him, hut, seizing two of his assailants,
one with each hand, he used them as
clubs on the crowd, who, astonished
at this extraordinary display OF
strength, quickly drew back. Once he
squeezed to pulp the hand Of a man
who wanted to fight him.
Barsabas's sister was also remark.
ablo for her strength. Some burglars
entered a convent where she was. She
threw one out of the window and
killed two others with pillar she tore
down and used as club.-New York
