RE0CU|NG A DROWNING MAN
By THE ELECTRIC LIGHT.

| there is still chance for hope. 1t Is
the moment when the mortal creature
surrenders and sinks into the arms oil
death. that is unbearable to witness
The imagination is fearfully enticed by
visions of the unseen close of the trag-
edy, the climax that is yelled from
view by the dark water. To those who
watch the broadening ripples on the
surface. seconds stretch to hours. III
is not the victim alone for whom time
drags so slowly that there is leisure Tor
the reviewing of life.
No one ever estimates correctly the
interval that elapses between the dis
appearance of the drowning man be-
meath the surface and the moment
when the body is brought up from the
depths. If that be speedily accom-
plished. 1t may be five minutes; but
majority of those who see it will say
1t may be half an hour.
In proportion to the seeming exten-
sion of time is the Importance of 1t.
half minute saved may mean the diff
ference between death and life That
difference often depends upon the ex-
act location of the body. In shallow
water where rover who has hurried
to the spot may grapple for the body
with a boathook, the impossibility OF
seeing more than a few feet below the
surface is the obstacle that prevents
rescue.
This fact. so often noted. has led
some Partisan to invent an electrically
Illuminated boathook for use in such
emergencies. 1t is impossible to place
the exact credit for the invention but
its utility has been subjected, recently,
to a series of tests by the police in
natatorium in Paris and the results
were in the highest degree satisfactory.
An expert swimmer represented the
supposed drowning man. He sank to
the bottom of the tank and then moved
stealthily along the bottom so that not
ripple showed which way ne had
gone. The surface light was so ar
ranged that the bottom could not be
seen. but in every case the swimmer
was quickly located by means of the IL
Illuminated hook
The implement is like any ordinary
boathook, except that just above the
gaff, a strong glass bulb Is carried. In
the centre of the bulb is an ordinary
carbon-fibre electric light. Wires run
up inside the handle. and are connected
with a storage battery which may be
so small as to be conveniently carried
upon the belt of the rescuer.
1t is the intention to equip the life
savers along the Seine,-where drown
ing, whether from accident or suicide
is notably frequent-with these devices,
and it is also believed that they can
be of gveat utility on much-frequented
skating ponds, and at summer resorts
where there is saltwater bathing.

A MARVELLOUS
SIX=YEAR=OLD
MUSICIAN.

The question, is music born in people,
seems to have been answered. by little
Lulu Espach of 512 West Seventh
street, Cincinnati, o. When she was
a baby of six months, the only thing
that would quiet her was music. Now.
six years old. che is capable of sitting
at the plano and playing any music
she hears. Strangest of all, the child
cannot read music.
While playing the instrument the lit
tie one never looks at the keys. but
gazes upward as If inspiration came to
her from above. Still, she has no
great fondness for classical music, al
though she will play 1t as readily as
any other. She best likes. her parents
say, Sousas music, although that Is
only a present fad, as from time to
time she, like others much older, has
new favorites.
Not long ago she was with her par
ents at the house of friend when
some one Of the guests played Bee
thoven sonata. One of the ladies pres
ent said to Lulu that there was some
thing that she could not play. The child
insisted that she could and begged per-
mission to be permitted to do so. This
being granted, she sat down at the ne
strument and played this most diff
cult music from beginning to end with
out an error.
