A NOVEL ENTERPRISE.

From the Christian Advocate.)
The city of Seattle lies between Puget
sound and Lake Washington A canal is
now being dug for the purpose of connect
ing the two. Puget sound Is salt and
connects with the Pacific ocean. Lake
washington is a body of fresh water.
The object in the connection Is novel.
Familiar with the region, and having
heard of the canal and the heason for it,
we have looked the matter up little. and
find that it is to be a barnacle cure on a
large scale.
1t is well known that barnacles, q va
riety of marine shellfish, attach them
selves to the bottom of vessels. and after
a time, when the number becomes great,
the movement of the ships becomes SO
seriously retarded that the vessel has to
be dry-docked and cleaned. This is an
expensive operation and many are the de-
vices which have been resorted to to pre-
vent the adhesion of the barnacles. but
without success. Barnacles appear to be
more prolific on Pacific coast than on the
becomes even more important than in the
case of Atlantic shipping. 1t Is well
known fact that the barnacles drof OF if
the ship lies for even short time in
fresh water, and the proposition to con-
meet Puget sound with this beautiful
freshwater lake has for it's end the taking
advantage of this fact, SO that by means
of the canal the vessels may be run into
Lake Washington and allowed to lie there
until the barnacles drop on. These AMI
mails like others whose native element Is
salt water die after time and lose their
grin.

FRAUD AT COLUMBUS.
Judges Deal Out Punishment to OF
Tending Race Drivers.

Columbus, o., Aug 1.-The judges at
the Grand Circuit races unearthed Job
in the 5000 stake for 2:20 PAGERS and by
prompt action saved innocent spectators
who backed the field a large sum of mon
ey. Severe punishment was meted out
to the guilty party, Driver Tom Stuard,
and the horse Elder One, being suspended
for one year. The 2:2O pace was the feat
ure of good card. There were six start
ers. but Green Line and Elder One wero
conceded to have the race between them.
Green Line won the first heat with ease In
2:0012, slow time over. the track which was
lightning fast The second heat was a
race in itself and was won by Elder One
who paced beautiful mile in 1854, cut
ting his record by four seconds. The orig
inal betting had been Green Line 500 and
the field $50. Elder Ones showing in the
second heat produced the desired effect on
the odds which now switched to $50 on
Green Line and $50 on the field. The third
heat went to Green Line in 2:1o14. Stuard
making no effort with Elder One.
When the horses came out for the fourth
heat the judges ordered Stuard out of the
sulky and put Valentine, local trainer
and driver, up behind Elder One. Elder
One took the fourth heat in 2:06A. outpac-
ing Green Line in the stretch. In the fifth
heat Elder One went to a break in the
first turn and could not be set to pacing
again. He finished behind the flag with
broken hopple. which investigation
showed had been cut nearly through be-
fore the heat started. The judges declared
all bets off, placed Elder One fourth in
stead of distanced in the last heat. sus-
pended Stuard and the horse Elder One
for one year and fined Hudson 500 for not
trying to win the last heat with Tertimen.
Valentine was awarded 500 for driving
Elder One, the amount to be taken from
the horses share of the purse. Elder One
is the PAGER who finished second to Direct
Hal in the Chamber of Commerce at De-
troit and again at Cleveland He had
worlds of speed and should have beaten
Green Line.
The 2:10 trot went to Wauban after seven
hard heats. The gray gelding was favorite
at 500 to $40. Bad breaks put him out of
the two first heats, but he stayed long
enough to land first money.
The two short races were won by Klot-
dixie and Chase in straight heats. The
feature of the closing day of the meet
ing will be the attempt of Dan Patch
2:OSs4. to beat 2:01A, the record of his sire,
Joe Potchen.

HOW WE SEE.

1Prof. Raymond Dodge in Harpers.1
II one takes pains to watch the eyes
Of a person reading. It will be noticed
that each sweep of the eyes across the
page to the right is broken by num-
Der of pauses. which may be counted with
a little practice. The frequency of these
pauses is a fairly good measure of the
difficulty of reading. They are fewer if
the subject matter read is easy, and the
type is large and clear. They are more
numerous when one reads foreign Ian
guage or a difficult scientific essay. They
are much less numerous for rapid read
ers, but they are never entirely absent.
The general law that we are practically
blind during a fraction of q second at
each eye-movement has number of I'M
suspected consequences Many sleight-
of-hand trick, apparently depending only
on rapidity of movement, really depends
for its success on these moments of blind
ness, when. the spectators eyes attempt
to follow a rapid movement of the oper-
ator's hand. or unconsciously move in
obedience to some other suggestion. More
serious are such moments of blindness
to the boxer or the fencer. Empirical
expediency long ago developed the maxim
that both should fxate the eyes of the
opponent This is not merely to avoid
giving cues of intended movement. but
also to avoid the disastrously numerous
moments of blindness which would re-
suit if one attempted to follow the mo-
lions of the opponents hands.

THE PEOPLE DECEIVED

Situation.
Law Has Been Violated by Is

For the purpose of undoing the mis-
chievous work of the Hughes admin

been found necessary to increase the
levy this year from II to 10 mills
The additional mills will be used to
pay interest and principal on the city's
bonded debt, which Hughes financial
advisers allowed to go by default.
Hughes administration, instead of
raising the levy to pay the interest on
$4,000 of city hall bonds and $59.0 900
Santa Fe shop bonds, allowed it to re-
main what it was before those bonds
were issued, for the purpose of fooling
the people into thinking that the city
was saving money.
