ten, so that man who drinks gill will
be as hilariously happy, as maudlin and
incapable as he used to be when he
drank cask.
DIR. Corning found by experiments that
men who work i'll caissons under COM
pressed air are peculiarly susceptible to
the effects of rum. A man who takes
perhaps one cocktail and then climbs ill.,
to a caisson where the air is at about 80
pounds to the square inch finds himself
intoxicated, thus cheating the saloon
keepers out of the price of many drinks.
The physician who discovered all this
at his laboratory thinks it is entirely
feasible to build compressed air parlors
in every saloon. Here are the advan-
tages of such an innovation as explained
by well known drinking man.
''The great beauty of the thing" said
he, lis its 'instantaneousness.' There
may not be any such word in the diction-
AIRY, but it describes the situation.
"A man with desire to get com
pressed air jag takes one drink and ell
tiers the tank. At once he is very drunk,
a condition he has reached without any
great tax upon either his stomach or his
purse.
While i'll the tank he can sing and
dance and tell funny stories and say all
the idiotic things that drunken men make
a speciality of saying. He can talk about
himself, denounce his enemies, tell his
grievances, give vent to his bottled up
patriotism and have Il glorious time gem
orally.
"But the beauty of the air tank comes
in when he wants to sober up. All he

1OUNG REALlZES THAT HE Is AtOUE
side of the small boat, his weights were
put on over his shoulders, the cranks of
the air pumps began to revolve and with
the signal, ''Al right" given by two
pats on the top of his helmet, John
Young gently sank beneath the waves,
easing himself down his shot rope as he
went
1t would appear, says the Cincinnati
Enquirer, that in Suda bay there must
have been a submarine current, probably
only very slight. but nevertheless suffi-
ciently strong when Young descended to
turn him gradually. but completely,
around, so that ere he touched the bot
tom he had unknowingly already got his
life line and air pipe foul.
Utterly unaware of this and finding the
torpedo Immediately, Young gave the
signal-a pull on his life line-which had
already been agreed upon, and which
meant that he was ready for the five inch
hawser to be lowered to him.
This was done, and, catching hold of
ths end of the hawser, he groped his way
to the torpedo, wading through the heavy
bottom mud, which was nearly up to his
knees. Making the hawser fast to the
tail of the torpedo, he must have moved
completely around the submerged weapon
from left TO right, thus making another
foul.
The. hawser being made fast, Young
now started to ascend up the shot. rope,
quite unaware that he had made a hitch
around both it and the torpedo with both
his air pipe and breast line
By this time Young must have come to
the conclusion that he was fouled, for he
had ascended short distance and then
found he could not move. Therefore, like
a wise man, he went down again and
tried to find out where the trouble was,
but owing to its being pitch dark where
he was it is not to be wondered at that
he failed to do so.
Almost deSpairing of being able to free
himself and dreading to resort to the last
resource that of cutting himself clear
with his knifel lest he should get foul
again while going up, the unfortunate
man gave four pulls on his air pipe This
is the most urgent signal that diver can
send to his friends above 1t means "Pull
ME up at once by my life line"
At first the operators hesitated to act
on this, but on the urgent repetition of
the signal the order was given on the
launch to haul in the life line But on
commencing TO do this the operators
found it was impossible to bring up more
than fathom az the line. Worse still,
the only result of this operation was to
turn Young completely upside down. The
very first pull on the line, entangled as
it was around the torpedo, must have
done this.
Now, once diver loses his perpendic-
ular and gets horizontal the air gets into
the legs Of his dress, up they go, and
then nothing that he can do will ever
bring them down again. He is mere
helpless wind bag, quite incapable of re-
versing himself. This is precisely what
must have happened to Young. The loop

posed dead man opened and a very Sc
pulchral voice murmured in a feeble pro
test: Don't cut the dress. It's u new
one"
An immense cheer rent the air and was
quickly taken up on board the warship
The whole vicinity was filed with the
joyous sound which told of the divers
marvellous survival.
Beyond the fact that his arm was Sc
verely confused and painful Young ap-
peared to be none the worse at the time
and, after q good nights rest, he was GO
ing about his duties as usual the next
day. When it is considered that he was
under the water, 1S feet deep, for over
five hours in total darkness, most of the
time upside down and hopelessly entan-
gled with two ropes and the torpedo, il
can safely be said that his experience
was unique, and in all the records of div
ing his escape may be taken as the most
wonderful known.
