imposed on refined oil by those countries

Oriental trade the oil Is shipped In cases

Dipping the Dip.

In shop on Atlantic avenue, Boston,
there is building a torpedo-shaped me-
tallic boat, about 10 feet long with a
depth of five feet, and gsshaped
in cross-section. The cockpit seats four
persons. Their heads come about a
foot below the highest point of the boat.
Boats of this style are designed for use
In a new scheme for Summer and beach
resorts TO be known as dip the Dip"
The Dip the Dip Is a submarine div
ing boat, running on overhead rails. The
scheme is 10 shoot these l6-foot metallic
boats containing four passengers each
down an incline similar i'm shape, design
and angles To the shoot the Chutes," ex-
cept that II make a complete circuit be-
the incline there Is tank OF water about
twelve feet deep, eight feet wide and
seventy-five feet long.
AS the heavy metallic torpedo boat
comes down the incline IL plunges into the
tank of water for a distance of thirty
feet and Is totally submerged in about
four feet at its greatest depth. The boats
impetus is sufficient 10 carry Il through
the water and up an incline back TO the
normal level, which is several feet higher
than the surface OF the water I'm the tank.
The passengers are seated i'm a cockpit.
entirely open at the top and sides. and yet
not drop OF water comes within a foot
or eighteen inches OF the passengers. The
reason of this, so the inventor claims is
that the speed OF the pointed boat throws
the water aside. or to use Mr.. Carpenters
own words: THE speed of the boat as IL
enters the water is about fifty feet a sec
ond, or thirty miles an hour. which en-.
sbles the boat TO travel its own length in
one-duarter OF a second. This takes
them through that part OF the tank in
which they are totally submerged, dis
tance of thirty feet, In less than one-half
second.
The opening in the boat being but FIVE
feet, gives the water but one-twelfth of
a second in which to fall on the passen-
gers, but as the force OF gravity is not
sufficient to draw any object further than
one-a -auarter-inch the first one-twelfth of a
second the water does not get time TO get
into the opening where the four psssen-
gers sit.
The boat Is so heavy and sharp-pointed
and comes into the water at such a rate
OF speed that its sharp nose literally bores
or tunnels passage for itself through the
water. which does not have time to fall
back or cave in until the boat has passed
through. The boat, after coming out of
the water, travels along up an incline of
height OF six or eight feet by Its own
momentum. This acts as a brake and
slows the boat up so that IL gldes around
the curve and comes to standstill at the
starting point, ready 20 be connected TO
an endless cable and drawn UP the in
clines for fresh start."-Ex

The Biting Machine Swindle.

According 20 Paris correspondent OF
the London Express, the latest dodge OF
the Paris vagabond is a biting machine
steel ptncer which, when IL closes on
mans arm, leaves a mark closely resem-
bling that inflicted b. n vicious horse
The modus operandi was for band Of
criminals TO surround a horse whose dri-
Yer was temporarily absent. While one
pricked the animal and made it savage
the accomplice cried out as IL in agony:
When crowd had collected he exhibited
his arm. which had previously been OPP
Grated upon by the biting machine
The indignant spectators proceeded to
lynch the carter and beat the horse tin-
mercifully. Finally the proprietor OF the
innocent steed paid the bogus victim any,
thing from 10 10 20 pounds as compensa-
ton.
But company for insuring against ac-
cident, alarmed by the number OF people
who claimed indemnity for horse bites,
grew suspicious, and the inventors OF the
biting machine are now in Jail.

HOW WOMAN SUFFRAGE WORKS.

T. A. McNeal editor OF the Topeka Mail
and Breeze. has just returned from Color
ado. He says editorially:
A reader OF the Mail and Breeze who
seems TO be strongly interested in politi-
cal matters for this warm weather. asks
If we made any inquiries in regard to the
working OF female suffrage in Colorado.
We did and we have 90 say that we
did not talk To man OF any political
complexion who did not say that female
suffrage was and is a success. Riding
on the train with Ex-Governor Adams, n
Democrat by the way. who would natur-
ally be supposed 10 be against female suf-
frage. we asked how the law worked In
the state.
II have no hesitancy I'm saying" an
swcred the governor. that " is a sue
cess. There IL one thing | want To say
about it. because II knocks out favorite
objection TO female suffrage. The oppon-
ents said before the law was enacted that
only the bad women would vote: that re-
spectacle women would not care 10 exer-
else the right of suffrage The experience
of Colorado In exactly 10 the contrary.
The vile women do not want 90 vote. and
will not vote unless they are strongly
urged TO do so. ] have Aaown cases In
municipal elections where the bum ele-
ments wanted TO carry the election and
keep control OF city affairs, when the poe
lice who were. OF course. under the con-
troll Of the bum elements, actually forced
the Magdslens 60 80 20 the polls and vote: /:

is rs large a proportion OF respectable wo-
men IN Colorado who vote az there II of

lot OF the state entirely, but there is no
question about the fact that they make
the parties put up a better class of men
for office than would be nominated N
the women did not have the right 90 vote.
I arm strongly in favor Of the law"

things politically" remarked Republic
can who has taken q prominent part In
Colorado politics. but there is one thing
I am sure about. and that r. that female
