Deadly Weapons Ste

Deadly Weapons Ste shore
with No Materi snsran.
Contemporaneous with the sitting Of
the international peace commission
comes the announcement of a new In
vention by which torpedoes are to be
rendered more deadly in modern war
fare than heretofore. The invention,
due to Messrs. Walter Jameson and
John Trotter, consists in utilizing the
''ethereal' or "Hertzian" waves, which
are the basis of wireless telegraphy,
as a means of steering and controlling
torpedoes on their deadly missions.
The apparatus is made in several
forms, which differ principally in the
means by which the current Induced
by the waves is applied to the steering
mechanism. The best arrangement
consists Of a coil of iron wire or
"solenoid'' that becomes magnetic on
receiving the ethereal waves, and is
thus rendered capable of sucking into
itself a magnet the motion Of which
brings about any required change In
the steering gear of the torpedo. The
latter is fitted with two rods, which
project above the water and serve as
''receivers"-that is, means OF collect
ing the waves. Each of the rods Is in
connection with a coil Of the type de-
scribed, one on the right Of the torpedo
and one on the left. and, according as
the right hand or the left hand rod alb
serbs the waves, so the torpedo is guild
ed to the right or left,
The means adopted in using the ap-
paratus is as follows, says the New
York Times: Suppose that the torpedo
is fired in the usual manner and that
its course Is seen to swerve from its
proper path. From the torpedo boat
electrical waves are Immediately dis
patched by the processes used in wire
less telegraphy in such manner that
they only affect either the right hand
or left hand coil controlling the helm,
which is thus turned in any required
direction and the original course Of
the torpedo reproduced. When this is
accomplished, the electric waves are
stopped and the helm flies back to the
midship position.
Large models Of the apparatus have
been experimental with, and it is said
that perfect success has been obtained
under all possible conditions. Since the
new method of guiding torpedOes Is
greately superior to the old, which
made use Of electric wires, 1t Is evident
that the new invention will be an i'm
portant factor in future naval warfare.

The Medical Record gives the result
of long series of observations of the
effect of vocation on the duration of
life and comes to the interesting con-
clusion that men who uninterruptedly
give themselves to speculation, the
money market, gambling or any other
intense occupation do not live as long
as men who are mechanics or artisans
and who break away stately from
their pursuits and go upon an occa-
sional spree. The argument adduced
from this is that long life is best as
sured by not driving the faculties too
continuously in one direction. Glad
stone, among others, was a remarkable
illustration of the truth of this. As a
rule, a man breaks down under one idea
much quicker than does the man with
score of ideas, all of which simply
brings us back to the homely old proverb
that variety is the spice Of life.

Don't fail to hear Thuel Burnham,
the pianist. at the Grand next Friday
evening, Sept. Goth. The reserved seats
are being secured fast. Parties from
West Union, Postville, Cresco and
other towns, few of whom have heard
Mr.. Burnham play before, writes that
they are expecting TO he here 10 hear
the recital. The indications are that a
very good house will hear Mr.. Burn
ham, which will he credit TO the
people of DEBORAH a. being "A music
loving people. To hear the first piece,
which Is very fine composition, be at
your seats at eight O'clock. 1t will be
highly appreciated IL you will not enter
the audience room while the piano Is
being played, as il is very annoying to
the listener as well as to the performer
to be in the least disturbed during that
time. The New York Musical Courier
says: "He enjoys in high degree the
confidence and regard Of he greatest
New YORK masters; he plays the best
Of everything and possesses an extra
ordinary catholicity of taste" Mr..
Burnham plays program which has
been made up by the DEBORAH music
teachers, which speaks very highly Of
them. The train will be held until
after the concert and will reach Calmar
in time for the train going east.

The Search For New Food.

Mankind are continually searching for
new foods. Man is never satisfied with
the simple products of the earth and
the familiar flesh of the markets. As
he grows more highly organized he ap-
pears to demand larger variety of
more highly organized products; hence
he is always securing the sea and the
air for new viands to tickle his unap-
peasable appetite. There is scarcely an
animal left that does not contribute in
some way to his epicurean gullet. 1t
was not long ago that gulls' eggs were
introduced to the London market, and
a company has now been formed to fur
nish it with reindeer flesh, which Is said
to be peculiarly gamy and appetizing.
One continually hears from travellers
how celebrating are sharks fins and
birds nests when eaten in China. In
France this search for novelty in viands
has led, as we all know. to the explora-
tion of the night side of nature and to
the popularization of frogs legs and
snails and to all manner of experiments
with horsefesh. The latest innovation
in Paris comes from our Indian Terri
tory and is called "choked pup" This
demand Of the palate appears to be az
ISOLATED with certain developments of
the sensibilities. 1t is not found that
the peasants of Russia or of Germany
ever have any dreams of sharks fins or
longings for unattainable foods. Black
bread and beer answer to all the de-
mands of their natures, and in Russia
milk and onions sustain themselves
well in the march of democracy. On
the other hand, the aesthetics of Paris
who live upon calves brains and orto-
lans and diseased geese livers give
many hours of their lives to the prep
aration and Transformation of these
things, and it is thought by some that
they are thus enabled to rise into the
pure atmosphere of symbolism and
safety. Everything that they masticate
has to be deviled, and one would not
be surprised if their readers suffer the
same fate. Not long ago a French spec
ula tive philosopher wrote little book,
which he called "Sarcophagy," in
which he undertook to prove that man,
if he kept on developing his gustatory
functions, would sooner or later arrive
at condition Of development in which
he would have to eat himself-that is
to say, human flesh would offer him
the most highly organized form of food.

There does not appear to be any more
reason why a man should take off his
hat when a woman enters an elevator
than that he should take ii off when
she enters horse car. In fact, it is
very difficult to draw the line in the
ordinary intercourse Of life and bust
ness just where he should take his hat
off. In Washington it is said everybody
takes his hat off when a woman steps
aboard the lift, but in New York only
80 per cent of the men uncover, and in
Brooklyn they have abandoned the
habit altogether. Wherever business
throws the sexes together on equal
terms of industry gallantry of the old
fashioned sort must be necessarily laid
aside to a great extent. A man cannot
be always lifting his hat to his amanu-
ensis, especially as he has to reprimand
her very often. Besides, the business
woman assumes to be little above
these old sentimentalities and affects to
resent them. A recent German comic
paper represents an indignant old lady
saying to the gentleman who lifts his
hat to her in the street and treats her
with some ordinary politeness: 'None
of your nonsensical old gallantry to me.

WANTED OTIS OVER MILES.

The Philippine Commander Came
Near Succeeding General Schofield.
Ex-Secretary of the Treasury Charles
Foster related an interesting reminis-
cence recently at Fostoria regarding
the appointment of General Miles to
the command Of the army Of the Unit
ed States which is particularly peril
nent at the present time. 1t fell to the
lot Of President Harrison to appoint
the several brigadier generals neces-
sary for the conduct of military affairs.
General Otis was one of the appoint
ees.
At this time General Schofield was
commander in chief under Secretary Of
War Elkins. About this time it was
strongly rumored in official circles that
General Schofield contemplated retir-
ing from active service before he had
reached the retiring age, which would
carry him over into the Cleveland ad-
ministration. In consequence Of this
rumor, the cabinet had several unoffi-
cial talks regarding the appointment
Of Schofield's successor says the New
York Times.
General Otis was held in high regard
by Secretary of War Elkins and Presi-
dent Harrison. The impression was
gathered from Mr.. Fosters talk that
had an appointment been made at that
time General Otis would have been
made commander in chief. The official
family considered General Otis the
ablest eligible man then in the service.
General Schofield did not retire, and
the appointment was held over till the
Cleveland administration. Mr.. Foster
never had any conversations with
President Cleveland on the subject of
appointment, but the impression pre-
vailed that had it not been for Miles
seniority Otis would have been the
present commander in chief. In regard
to the present criticism Of General
Otis in his campaign in the Philippines,
Mr.. Foster stated that he had not
looked into the matter very deeply, but
he was satisfied that the administra-
ton has made no mistake in assigning
him to the position he now holds.

UNDlR THE DOME.

"Under the Dome," Lincoln J.,
Carers new SENSATIONAL comedy
drama will beNseen al the Grand next
Monday night. 1t is a laval play,
the main incidents of which were
suggested by the attempted seizure
of the Samoan Islands by the German
government ia 1888 and 1885, Several
scenes of the play are worthy of "a deal
more than passing notice. One of
these showing passage of ferry
boat from Jersey City to New York is
said to be absolutely perfect in detail.
Another preteutious senic effort is the
representation Of that awful calamity
in the harbor at Apia which cost
the lives of IA brave seamen and
resulted in the destruction of the
Eber, Alder and Olga of tie German
navy and the u. :. men-of-war Tren-
ton, Nipsic aud Vandaiia.

The order recently sent out that
banks shall not affix stamps to checks
when the makers have failed to do so is
one of those incomprehensible and
purely fussy decisions that the bankers
Of the United States are utterly unable
to understand. The government might
as well say that your brother or your
business man shall not pay your taxes
for You if you happen to be short or
too busy. The object of the stamp is
revenue, not annoyance. and it cannot
make a particle of difference to the gov
eminent who affixes the stamp il 1t is

How to Drink Water.

There are few people, we think. who
thoroughly realize the value of water
as a beverage or who know how to OBJ
tain the greatest advantage from it.
The effects produced by the drinking Of
water, as pointed out by our excellent
contemporary, Health, vary with the
manner in which it is drunk. If, for
instance, a pint of cold water be swal-
lowed as large draft, or if it be taken
in two portions with short interval
between, certain definite results follow
effects which differ from those which
would have resulted from the same
quantity taken by slipping. Slipping is
a powerful stimulant to the circulation,
O thing which ordinary drinking is not.
During the act of slipping the action
of the nerve which shows the beats of
the heart is abolished, and as a conse-
quence that organ contracts much more
rapidly, the pulse beats more quickly
and the circulation in various parts of
the body is increased. In addition to
this, we find that the pressure under
which the bile is secreted is raised by
the slipping of fluid. And here is point
which might well be noted By our read
ers:
A glass of cold water, slowly sinped,
will produce greater acceleration OF tho
pulse for time than will glass of
wine or spirits taken at draft. In this
connection it may not be out Of place to
mention that slipping cold water will
often allay the craving for alcohol in
those who have been in the habit of tax
ing too much of it and who may be en-
deavoring to reform, the effect being
probably due to the stimulant action Of
tho q; px,,pn
