THE SECRETS OF THE SHAFT.
Strange Things Noticed About the
Washington Monument.


The distance at whIcn the washington
monument is visible has always been
matter of debatable interest with Wash
ington people. says the Star of that city,
Not a train approaches the city, nor
boat speeds up or down the Potomac, but
carries a group of people anxious to see
at just what point they can last see the
white marble against the sky as they de-
part or first find it as they return.
Probably the greatest distance at which
the monument is seen Is from the sum-
NIT of the Blue Ridge, at Smokers gap, a
distance of about 43 miles in an air line
The elevation there is 1000 feet above the
Potomac. The mountaineers years ago,
with their keen eyes, trained to long and
sharp sight in the mountains, detected the
white spot cleaning on the horizon, and
they can always quickly determine its
place on the horizon line. But to city folk,
however, the location Of the white SMART
is not an easy matter.
Thousands of washington people every
summer invade that region as summer
boarders, to subsist on fresh milk and
fried chicken, and incidentally in their ex-
cursions upon the mountain to get a sight
/ of the monument. On clear days 1t is dis
tinctly visible, especially to those who are
familiar with it's precise location. But it
is more easily seen at sunset than at any
other hour, as the sharp reflection of the
suns rays brings out the white surface
of the marble. The mountain people are
only too glad to point out the monument
to their visitors, and usually tell them the
secret by which they can themselves To-
cate it.
One of the most singular stories that
may be told about the Washington monu-
ment is hardly credible, yet 1t can be
vouched for as perfectly true. There are
hundreds of ladies in Washington who
wear upon their hats tie plumage or the
entire skin of a bird which has lost Its
life flying against the tall mass of marble
in the dimness of twilight or daybreak.
Another queer thing to know about thu
monument is that its height and widti
vary. 1t Is taller in summer than in win
ter, and in the latter season its width OF
the south side is about an inch create
than on the north, east or west sides. Thi
is due to expansion under the heat Of tn
| suns rays.

UNDER WATER EIGHTEEN HOURS.
The Possibilities I'm Favor Subma-
rine Boats Are Looking Up.

An italian inventor named Corzetto has
constructed an apparatus which he calls
'methydric sphere" and by means Of
which he processes to be able to descend
to any depth in the sea, says a writer
in the Scientific American. In his expert
ment at spezzia he stored some 1000 cubic
feet Of compressed air in his apparatus,
which he entered with two friends. and
which was then lowered to depth of
some 30 feet. AS after an expiration Of
nine hours the Sphere had not, been
seen to reaseend to the surface, a mes
sage was sent to the admiral in com
mand of the naval department, who at
once sent a diver to the spot The
sphere" was found still resting on the
sea bottom, but the diver heard nothing
in answer to his knocks. Some barges
having been brought to the spot by a
tug, the sphere" was hauled up with
ropes, and as soon as 1t emerged it's door
was opened and its inventor appeared
with Iivid face and half asphyxiated.
His two companions were unconscious,
but were quickly resuscitated, They had
remained IL hours under water. The in
ventor explains that so far all his ex-
periments were successful, but on this
! occasion when he intended to return ia
the surface the air pressure at his COM
mand proved insufficient to propel the
water ballast of about two tons weight
which had so far kept his appliance sub.
merged, and hence they had to remain
where they were until rescued. At any
rate, three persons were enabled to re-
main under. water for IS hours, and this
experiment may not be without signih'
canoe as regards the much discussed
problem of submarine navigation.

CURES HIMSELF OF CONSUMPTION.
Professor d. L. DOvvd shows How He
Saved His Life.

Professor Daniel L. Dowd, former claim
amt of the title of strongest man on earth,
who was declared insane over a year ago
because of his peculiar ideas on diet, has
obtained affidavits from q number OF
physicians to show that the system he
was declared crazy for adopting really
SAVED his life, says a New York dispatch.
Professor Dowd is now at liberty, with
his fate in the hands Of Judge Pryor. If
the decision ON a motion to recommit him
is against him he will be legally crazy
again. About I'VE years ago the seeds OF
consumption were planted in the profess
sor's lungs.
My theory" he said today, ''is that the
tubercular bacilh being vegetable
growths. are fed by the fermentation
within the body. It Is clear, therefore.
that II the fermentation In the stomach
can be stopped there viii be nothing to
feed or create baciIli, and they will pass
away. Meat viii not ferment, as does
vegetable food. A meat diet exclusively
gets monotonous, so three hours after
eating vegetables I washed out the fer
menting food with a stomach pump. Al

treatment"

the two countries lies In the fact that
Americans drink vitiated water. This is
specially true with reference to the cities
where well water Is often contaminated
by Impurities. In Europe however, only
pure water Is furnished the inhabitants.
These facts should be considered by the
health authorities in our various cities.
with a climate as salubrious as that pos

Is no reason why this country should not
