We do not wonder that the Britishers
at the Cape are exasperated because the
Beers have been allowed to distribute arms
to their adherents in the colony and in the
Orange Free State without let or hindrance.
1t is about as great an outrage as one
could well imagine. The truth appears to
be that the Afrikander Bund, the Dutch
society of all South Africa, is inimical to
England in its own possessions, and it is
interesting to remember that Sehreiner,

A DIVING BELL CRUSHED.

A crushed mass of iron in a Pitts
burg scrapyard demonstrates the ire
mendOus pressure of water at a great
depth.
1t was constructed for a diving bell
for use in Lake Michigan AS origi-
nally constructed it was about six feet
square, and tapered slightly at both
ends. The material was phosphor
bronze, more than half an inch thick.
Each plate was cast with f1ange, and
they were bolted together, the bolts
being placed as closely as was consist
ent with strength. The side plates
were further strengthened by iron ribs
an inch thick and two inches wide.
In fact, the entire structure was
strongly braced. The windows to be
used as outlooks by the divers were
three inches square, fortified with iron
bars and set with glass plates an inch
thick. The weight of the bell was 23.-
900 pounds.
When completed it was sent to Mil
waukee and towed out into the lake
about twelve miles, where there were
over 200 feet of water, and was sent
down for a test. The manufacturer
was so confident of the strength of the
bell that he wanted to go down IN it.
He is glad now that he didn't. When
the bell reached the depth of about
100 feet strong timbers attached to it
came to the surface in a splintered
condition.
Suspecting an accident, the bell was
hauled up and found to be crushed in
a shapeless mass. The inch-thick
bull's-eyes were shattered.
The pressure that crushed this SEEM
ingly invulnerable structure amounted
to total of 2,723,5tS pounds, or 1862

AN APPEAL.

A singular case came before the
Court OF Appeal yesterday new
trial was asked for on the ground that
at the first hearing the jury had been
so led away by the eloQuence of coun-
sci that they had returned an impro-
per verdict. There are a few cases in
which new trial has been granted
on the ground that there have been
inaccuracies in the statements made
by counsel; but we believe that this
is the first time in which one has been
asked for merely because counsel has
been specially energetic and flowery.
OF course, the application was refused.

When he is hungry. all he has
To do
Is TO go out and blithely dig
A few
Potatoes or 10 pick some fresh
Green peas.
His life is full OF simple JOYS
Like these.
He sees the sun rise nearly ev-
'ry day
Oh, life TO him is only sport
And play.
He does not have 10 think about
His dress:
He gets along with one good suit
Or less.
His wife so seldom has to go
In town,
She only needs TO have one ging-
ham gown,
And he is never tortured with
The blues,
Because the children never need
New shoes
Oh, life is just one round of Joy
And fun
To farmers. How | wish that |

I'd blithely lay the dollars I'D.

Which Foot Walks the Faster!

You may think this very silly
question 20 ask, but is it? There
is no catch about it. 1t is a sim
pie demOnstrable fact which you
can prove to your own sahsfac-
tiOn in a very few minutes. If you
will take any pavement that is
clear Of other pedestrians, so that
there shall be no interference and
wlk briskly in the center, you will
find that before You have gone a
hundred yards you will have
veered very much to one side.
You must not make any con-
scious effort, of course to keep
to the center, or you may do it,
and if you will think of some
thing and endeavor to walk nat
urally it is a hundred to one you
cannot keep a direct line.
The explanation lies in the pc
culiarity of one foot to walk fas-
ter than the other. Or. to be more
correct, perhaps it should be said
that one leg takes u little longer
stride than the other. and this,
combined with the quicker move
ment, causes one to walk more to
one side than the other.
1t is well known. for instance,
that if one is lost in the woods,
the tendency is to walk in a cir,
Gle, and eventually to return 10
about the starting point. This
demonstrates the fact also that
one foot walks faster than the
other.
You can try an interesting ex
pertinent in this way if you will
place two stakes in the lawn
about eight feet apart and then
stand off about sixty feet. allow
yourself to be blindfolded. and
endeavor to walk between them
You will find it an almost impos
sible task. because one foot will
go a bit faster than the other
either to the right or left Now
which one of your feet walks fas
ter than the other?
