The Nautilus, that fascinating craft Of
fiction in which Jules Verne took his cruise

is now being constructed in Philadelphia
which will duplicate nearly all the fea-
lures which Verne's imagination supplied

Heretofore oil attempts to make subma-

mere engines of destruction. This one,
however, is to be built chiefly as a pleasure
yacht, although IL Is intended to use her
principally for scientific purposes. She
can readily be changed, though, into a
submarine monster of the deep, for 1t is
only necessary TO fit her with torpedo
tubes TO make her capable Of seeking out

PROBLEMS OF PEDAGOGY.
Teachers VIII Discuss Them In the Mil
waukee Exposition Building.


wsukee Exposition Building.
Twenty thousand educators, ranging
from the teacher of the district school
to the dignified university president
will gather i'll Milwaukee the second
week in July to attend the annual con-
vention of the National Educational
association. This is one Of the largest
and most important gatherings of the
kind held anywhere in the world.
All sorts of pedagogical problems
will be discussed by the schoolteachers
and professors at the various sessions
They will exchange ideas on every fea-
ture of educational work, from the train
ing of kindergarten classes to the ethics
of the higher education. The conven-
tion will be called to order ON July
and will continue for three days.
The general sessions will be held in
the Milwaukee Exposition building, a
fine, big structure, admirably adapted to
the purpose. 1t contains one of the
most comfortable and coolest halls in
the country, with seating capacity of
10000 The interior will be elaborately
decorated and rearranged to suit the
needs of the delegates.
But besides the general sessions there
will be special gatherings of different

organizations which are a part Of the
National Educational association. For
these every auditorium hall in the city
will be pressed into service, besides sew
eral churches. These meetings will be
devoted to various educational depart
ments, and specialists will read papers
ON appropriate topics. Among these
speakers will be some of the most ia
nous educators in the country.
One Of the novel features Of the con-
vention will be an exhibition in phys.
ical training given by the Wisconsin
turner's, and as Milwaukee is the home
Of the only normal school Of athletics
in the country this will prove to be well
worth seeing, Possibly it may have
some influence toward promoting the
introduction of the turner system more
generally in the public schools. After
the convention the great army Of peda-
gogues will scatter in all directions to
take advantage of the reduced rates Of
fered by railroads for pleasure excursions
to dozen or more points of interest.

MARKS THE LAWYER.
The Original of the Famous Character In
"Uncle Toms Cabin"


"Uncle Toms Cabin"
The man whose name Harriet Beecher
Stowe borrowed for the character of Marks,
the Lawyer In her "Unole Toms Cabin"
Is living quietly and in retirement In Kan
sas City, He is Judge Abraham Marks
and he admits that he is the original
Marks.
He did not meet Mrs. Stowe until sew
eral years after the book had been written
Then he asked her how she happened to
give his name to such character. She
told him that she had visited the south q
few months before the book took shape in
her mind, and that while there she heard
Of him. He was sitting as judge in Lou
isiana then, and his name was such pc
culiar one that 1t stuck in her memory.
When she came to name the lawyer in her
story, she could think of no other name
than Marks, and 80 she used 1t.
The real Lawyer Marks, however, Is
nothing like the rascally buffoon in the
story and on the stage. He has far diff.
ferent character, and the one which was

DON'T WANT TO VOTE,
ILLINOIS WOMEN WHO OBJECT TO
RECEIVING THE SUFFRAGE.

An Active Campaign, Under the Leader
ship of Mrs. Caroline Corbin-How Susan
II. Anthony's Caustic Tongue Made Mrs.
Corbin an AntisufIragist.
For many months the woman suffrage
movement has been waged with frantic
zeal In Illinois. The national leaders of
the cause have been centering their efforts
in the commonwealth, and altogether
they have been making lot Of noise. The
uninitiated would be led TO think that the
women of Illinois were almost a unit In
demanding the right of the ballot.
But it appears that the campaign Is not
80 one sided as might be imagined. 1t
seems that there are a lot Of women in the
state who don't want TO vote, and wouldn't 3
II they could. Furthermore, they are de-
termined that the franchise shall not BIO
given to them If they con help 1t. They
have organized under the leadership Of one
Of the most enthusiastic antisutfragists in
the country, and, although they are work
ing very quietly, 1t is reported that they
have already caused much CONSERVATION
in the camp of the prosuffragists.
This antisuffrage chief Is Mrs. Caroline
Corbin Of Chicago, and, Of course, the
COlnlhunheT VI tnC OppusluB lOTCCS 10 VuuV
veteran suffragist, Susan B. Anthony.
Concerning these two leaders there is a
very interesting little anecdote told. 1t
seems that years ago they were school
mates. After graduation they lost track
of each other, and it was nearly score of
years before they met again.
what have you been doing all these
yearsf" asked Miss Anthony, perhaps with
feeling of conscious pride as she reflected
upon the glory of her own career.
Bringing up four boys" replied Mrs.
Corbin, discerning, with woman's s wit, the
implied comparison.
"Boysr scornfully exclaimed the out
spoken Susan. "What under the sun is q
woman with your brains doing with four
boysS"
81 suppose you would have had mt
stranglo them" was the retort.
"Bosh!' was the emphatic answer
"You should never have had them. They
will grow up to be men--nothing but
men,"

given Marks the Lawyer was wholly
drawn from the authors imagination to
suit the uses of tho story.
Judge Marks is courtly gentleman of
the old school, of dignified and gentle
manners. He has had an interesting Ca
reer, for he has known some of the great
men of the nation. He was a schoolmate
Of Edgar Allan Poe and has a scar on his
head which shows what q careless hunter
the poet was. The two boys were out after
robins, and Poe's gun was accidentally dis
charged intiioting severe wound on his
companions scalp
Jndge Marks also knew Chief Justice
Marshall when they were both boys.
He knew Henry Clay also and has
played cards with the great statesman.
Early In his life Judge Marks driftod to
Texas and fought a duel in San Antonio
when there were only 10 white men in the
place. He sat for many day on the sill
of the old log capitol of the Lone Star
State and smoked with Sam Houston.
For OF years he praotloed law both in the
north and in the south, and he was judge
In Louisiana during the years just previ-
GUS to the war.
Judge Marks has both read the book
and seen the play of Uncle Toms Cabin. Z"
EIe says that the character of Marks the
Lawyer is preposterous and not at all like
himself or any other lawyer that ever
lived.

honors he entered a school of pharmacy,
being one of the youngest graduates to
leave that institution. During the clos
ing months of the civil war he entered
the United States navy ard served for
short period. Then he entered Lin
coin university at Oxford, Pa, where
he remained Tor some time as a student.
Upon leaving the university he became
teacher in the Freedmen's schools at
Leedsburg, Va, where he remained un-
til appointed principal of the first school
for colored children established in Vir
ginia under state control.
After serving for several years in this
capacity Mr.. Powell removed to New
Jersey, where he became principal of
the colored schools of Bordentown. 1t
was while holding this position that
he was appointed clerk in the fourth
auditors office Of the treasury depart
ment by President Arthur. Clerical du-
ties proved dstasteful to him, however,
and he resigned to take up teaching
again. He became connected with the
schools in Camden and was eventually
appointed district principal with super
vision over the colored schools.
Mr. Powell began his political career
during the reconstruction days and has
done yeoman's service as a campaign
orator. He has several times declined
appointments to government offices.

Mr.. Hinkley, Sr., commended his good
sense. So the young millionaire put on
overalls and went into the power house as
a stoker at a salary of 81. so per day. He
found that his training In college athletics
stood him in good stead when 1t came to

with urine and let it stand twenty. four
hours; sediment or settling indicates
a diseased condition of the kidneys.
When urine stains linen it is positive
evidence of kidney trouble. Too fire.
quent desire to urinate or pain in the

so often expressed, that DIR. Kilmer's
Swamp-Root, the great kidney reme-
dy, fulfills every wish in relieving pain
in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder and
every part of the urinary passages. 1t
corrects inability to hold urine and
scalding pain in passing it, or bad eff.
fects following use of liquor, wine or
beer, and overcomes that unpleasant
necessity of being compelled to get up
many times during the night to urin-
ate. The mild and the extraordi nary
effect of Swamp Root is soon real lied.
