CRUSHED A DIVING BELL.
The Tremendous Water Pressure at
Grent Depths shown by an
odd Accident.

4 crushed mass of iron in a Pitts
burgh scrapyard demonstrates the ire
mendous pressure of water at great
depth, says the New York World.
Is was constructed for diving bell
for use in Lake Michigan. AS originally
constructed ii 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 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 3d.
600 pounds.
When completed it was sent to Mil
waukee and towed out into the lake
about ~ miles, where there was 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 deptko about 100
feet strong timbers attached to it came
to the surface in splintered condition
Suspecting an accident, the bell was
hauled up and found to be crushed into
a shapeless mass. The inchthick plate
glass bull's-eyes were shattered. The
pressure that crushed this seemingly
invulnerable structure amounted to a
total of 2,723,54S pounds, of 1862 sons.

SAMPLES OF IRISH HUMOR.
Some Witty Remarks and SalIies
Made by the Sons and Daughters
0f Old Erin.

Here are few bills from Mr.. Mac
Donagh's book on Irish Life and Char
acter:' did you call your husbands
uncle Carey the informer"" NO, sir,
| didn't go that far. / called him anti
christ There is delightful saying,
TOO, of an old woman, who was con-
selling her neighbor under an injury
and deprecating revenge. Leave the
villain to Almighty God" she said, AN
he'll play the divii with him." Here,
too, is Flower of speech" that rings
genuine: An Irishman was asked in
America how he was getting on. Mid
dim" he said, "middiin'; but fax, I'd
rather be |. gas lamp in Dublin nor
president in the United States" An
Irish NAVY on the Holyhead boat was
complaining of his foreman. He'd not
stir a finger himself to lift red her
ring off the gridiron. but he'd ask you
TO shift the rock of Gibraltar" People
laughed at the late Maj. O'Gorman, but
they also laughed with him. why are
Irishmen always laying bare the
wrongs of their country?' asked some
one in the house. Because they want
them redressed," Numbered the major.

ONCE CHIEF OF TIE HURONS.
Edmund keRn. the Great Actor, Sc
Iected to This Honor by the
Quebec Tribe.

Among the valuable paintings and en-
cravings mentioned in the London pa
pers as having been sold lately in that
city al auction at Sothebys was the
engraving of a portrait of the great
actor, Edmund Kean, as an Indian
chief. This is explained as follows:
When kean was acting in Quebec in
1926 four Huron chiefs witnessed his
performance OF Sir Giles Overreach.
kean gave each of them a silver cup as
a souvenir. They in return, to show
their gratitude, begged him TO honor
them by becoming a member Of their
tribe.
He assented with a,idity, and under
the nom de gerre of Alentenaide was
chosen as chief Of the Canadian abo-
rhymes. Dressed as one of the tribe he
mad his portrait painted by f. Meyer in
lo27, and an engraving from that paint
ing. presented by Kean himself TO his
friend Halpin. was the one included in
the sale.
Another lot at the same sale COM
prised miniature portrait of Mrs.
Kean, with a lock of her hair and also
a lock of her husbands hair. There was
likewise sold an autograph letter, in
which Mrs Kean complains to her hus-
band of her treatment.

GENEROUS ESQUIMAUX.
All the Game Captured by n Hunter
Is Equally Divided Among His
NeighbOrs.

Lieut.. Peary tells a very interesting
story about little band of EsquimauX
who live on the west coast of Greenland
between Melville bay and Kane basin.
These are the most notherly human be-
ings on the face of the globe, and in
many ways they live almost like ami
mails. Their only property is clothing,
weapons for the chase and food, which
consists entirely of meat, blubber and
blood.
They have no vegetation of any kind.
and not even pinch of salt. Lieut..
Peary has this to say about these queer
little people: rs it to be wondered
at that under these circumstances q
man offered me his dogs and sleds and
all his furs for piece of board as long
as himself; chat another offered me
his wife ard two children for a shining
knife, and that woman offered roe all
her possessions, which she had collect
ed for years, for needHe?"
These people are very generous. and
all the game captured by a hunter
is equally divided among all mis- neigh
bors. They have their own kind of ath-
letic entertainment. too, which includes
wrestling, boxing and tests of strength
in the lifting of heavy stones.

A CRAB FAMINE.
An Unexpected Scarcity Causes q
Rise of Three Hundred Per
Cent. in Price.

The prices of crabs have risen 300 per
season the price per dozen is in the
neighborhood of 25 cents. This year
crabs bring from 60 10 rs cents per
dozen. From one dollar barrel the
price has scared to three dollars, four
dollars. and even five dollars. As
usual thing New Workers consume
about 25 barrels of crabs each day. For
the past few months, since the severe
cold weather of the winter, the leaders
have been compelled to be contented
with whatever they could get. Some
days not more than four barrels would
be received. The supply has varied
from that amount to IS barrels. The
famine is due to the severe cold
weather of last winter. 1t usually oc-
ours that after exceeding cold weather
the supply of shell fish becomes scant.
Five or six months time is required to
get the sources of supply back to their
normal producing condition. The very
cold weather of last winter had the eff
feet of driving the crabs to hibernate
in the mud and to seek deeper and
warmer water. The alternating crabs
have not yet made their way out of the
mud. and it will remain for the next
change of tide to uncover them. Dur
ing the winter months the crab supply
is received from Norfolk, few from
Annapolis and from the lower points
on the Chesapeake bay. In summer
the Potomac river supplies the crabs
used in the city.
