WORK OF A SUBMARINE BOAT.

When engaged in harbor defence

outer line of harbor defense--that Is,
beyond the range of the guns defending

duty it will lie awash-that is, with

face of the water. On the approach OF
an enemy's vessel, the smoke-stack VIII

the turret through which 1t passed,
will be quickly closed water-tight.
She will then run in a direction TO
intercept the enemy's ship, still re-
manning in the awash condition until
she comes near enough to be discoV-
cred by the lOokouts on The ship,
when she will go from the awash to
the entirely submerged condition. The
distance from the ship at which she
must dive, will depend on the weather.
in rough weather, she can come
qnite close without being observed.

three hundred yards from the ship, the

a small settlement in northeastern

employees around the house. Yester-

a number of typewriter letters TO a
dozen or more employees enjoining

which he had received, and that a suit

set of resolutions, sticklers in their

to respect this sister wife and to love

They make sacrifices for one another.
There is absolutely no opportunity for
selfishness, jealousy or the display OF

blessings of a mormon household"
This is the verdict of a pioneer
woman. To her, polygamy is the nat
ural life. the result o. the inbred
habit of years. 1t would seem as If
the younger generation, Embossed part
ly from the shackles of the church,
would be less dominated by its usages.
Yet these were the words which came
from the lips of an unmarried daugh-
ter of a mormon father. She is a strik-

bred and interesting:

her bosom as if | were her own child,

mother was a sacred being, because
she was a mother. Oh, you cannot
realize what joy, what beauty, what
strength there exists among unselish
women in our home lives. And it is
a mistake to think that a deep-seated
religious belief in which we have been
bred can be ~overthrown by the the
dictates of unreasoning, ignorant law
makers
This is but an echo Of the i~ncessant
complainings that flow from the lips
of dissatisfied mormon women. They
long for a return to polygamy. The
habit of years is engrafted in their
souls. They are helpless without it.
