though little book learning. sat ;Sehind
the eminent attorney. The work Of &C.
curing the jury was in progress, and
the state had accepted and rendered TO
the defense certain gray haired man.
The defendants friend leaned over
to the law tr and whispered:
'Take that man, Quickv'
The lawyer turned around with q
grave and solemn air and said to his
adviser IL q pompous manner:
"You should be more careful in Civ
ing me advice. This is a grave mat
ter. Now, don't think that man will
do. He is old. He has one foot In
the grave. He Is about to be called
into the presence Of his Maker, and he
knows it. When men reach that age,
they are apt to be exceedingly strict
and are apt to make stern judgment
between the people of the state and
the prisoner ut the bar. They hold life
something most precious. Do you ever
think Of these things?"
'No." said the practical individual,
"but that man In the box Is the uncle
Of the defendant"
"Oh" exclaimed the lawyer.
The man was accepted ut once. The
jury returned verdict of not guilty

A Diving Bell Crushed.

A crushed mass Of iron in q Pitts.
burg scrapynrd demonstrates the tre-
mendous pressure of water at O. great
depth.
1t was constructed for diving bell
for use In Lake Michigan. AS original.
ly constructed 1t was about 6 feet
square, and tapcred slightly ut both
ends. The material was phospor
bronze, more than half an inch thick.
Each plate was cast with q fiange,
and they were bolted together. the
bolts being placed as closely as was
consistent 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
$4,000 pounds.
When completed. It was sent to Mil.
waukes and towed out into the lake
about II miles. where there were over
200 feet Of water, and was sent down
for test. The manufacturer was so
confident OF the strength Of the bell
that he wanted to 60 down in 1t.
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 q splintered
condition.
Suspecting an accident, the bell was
hauled uD and found to be crushed
into shapeless. mass. The inch thick
plate glass bullseyes were shattered.
The pressure that crushed this SEEM
fngly invulnerable structure amounted
to total of 2,723.543 pounds, or 1852
