FRANCOIS SUBMARINE NAVY.

France has a larger submarine navy
than any other nation, but perhaps it
will not he useful enough to give her
any advantage. Captain Heilman,
commander os the French submarine
fotilla at Cherbourg, has forwarded to
the proper naval authorities his report
of the work Of his boats during the
recent feet n1anoeuvres. He is said to
have expressed the conviction that on
ly the vessels known as submersibles
are Of any practical use, or can be
depended upon at sea. The French
submarines are divided into two cate
gories. The first are the subnersibles,
which are fitted with engines that
propel them on the surface, and, at the
same time, charge the accumulators,
which are brought into use when they
plunge beneath the waters Thus if
their accumulators should give out be-
low, they can come to the surface, set
their engines at work, and remanufac-
ture energy for another dive. The

other class are simply fitted with ac-
cumulators. which contain all the en-
ergy at their disposal. and they are
obliged not only TO return to port to
get their accumulators recharged, but
to get back to port before they be-
come entirely helpless. These vessels
Captain Heilman condemns. He says
that submarines of the Mors type can
never be considered as more than aux
iliaries, and he declares that the diff
culttes Of navigating them are such
that the crew are bound in the end
to become the victims of alarming de-
moralization. With the submersibles,
however, an attack upon an ironclad
steaming at the rate of twelve knots
an hour is possible.

TWO SHADES.

When it was announced the other day
that a woman had been arrested in
Denver, Colorado, for voting three
times on November a shade of nelan-
choly crept over those who know that
woman's influence in politics. as in all
other matters, is purifying and upllft-
ing. They we're sorry that even one
woman had sunk to the level in politics
to which it is notorious that many men
have sunk Another shade of melan-
choly will creep over them when they
read that it has been discovered that
Denver woman sold her vote to get
pin money"
Sad enough and bad enough, but even
with these two shades of melancholy
the gloom need not be dark or deep.
AS we pointed out the other day, one
woman repeater isn't any sign that wo-
men are as bad in politics as men are.
And we now point out that the sale of
a vote for pin money by one woman
isn't any sign that women are as bad
as men. Many men sell their votes,
and some of them don't sell them for
anything as innocent as pin money"
Some Of them sell their votes for rum
| money" Until women repeaters are
as numerous and bold as men repeaters
and until women vote-sellers are as nu-
merous and bad as men vote-sellers
there is no occasion for anything dark
er than the two light shades of melan-
choly above spoken of.

Mr.. Money, who had heard of him,
rudely replied:
Il will speak as long as I please;
you are at liberty to- do the same"
He harangued the voters for three
hours, never dreaming that young Gore
would reply. But he reasoned without
his host. The young man waited pa
tiently until his time, and then enter
tanned the rural crowd for four hours.
He quoted the Congressional record,
page by page, of his celebrated antag-
onist, ridiculing him numerically At
the close the thoroughly enraged Con-
gresham insulting remarked:
''If you were not blind, l would de-
bate with you in another way
Quick as flash came the reply:
Congressman, blindfold yourself and
march out. will defeat you in that
way the same as have on the ros-
trum.'' But the challenge went I'M
needed.
His first forensic effort of legal ma
ture was the defence of his boyish
friend Reuben Smith. charged with
murder. At that time Mr.. Gore was at
tending law school. Hearing that his
neighbor and friend was in serious
trouble, he wrote:
II trust I may defend him. He is too
noble to have murdered any one"
And stranger than fiction is the fact
that the same day young Gore wrote
his letter. the boy in Jail far away had
said to the father of that student:
Young Tom must speak for me- His
eloquence will save me-
And it did.-Kansas CITY Star.

oKLAHoMA's BLIND ORATOR.


The drawing card of the campaign in
Oklahoma is T. P. Gore of Lawton,
the Democratic nominee for the Terri
torial Senate in the district composed
of Caddo and Comanche Counties, both
thrown open to settlement year ago.
Mr. Gore is blind and has been since
he was eleven years Of age, when he
accidentally, with an arrow gun, shot
his right eye out at Jackson, Miss. At
that time he was page in the Senate.
Three years before a playmate, while
in boyish passion, had blinded his left
eye with a stone.
The reputation of the blind orator
has become such that he is now trav-
cling with Mr.. Cross, nominee for Del
egate to Congress, over all of Okla
homa-a Territory the size of the State
of Indiana. Mr.. Gore delivers two
speeches day, and will continue in
the work until the election. Great

three instances. When told by his

The negro has the same right of suf-

negroes and mulattoes together consti-
tute about 80 per cent. of the total pop

are complaining of the treatment they
get from the whites. They say that,
while they did most of the fighting with
Spain and most of the suffering during
the war, it is extremely hard now to
have the color line drawn upon them.
They declare that they are not getting

Nv INTER ESTING PR EDTCTIO

IN INTER ESTING PREDICTION.
An interesting prediction is made by
the Washington correspondent of the
Philadelphia North American. He says
that when Reed Smoot, apostle of the
Mormon Church, and one of the leaders
of Mormon thought and sentiment, pre-
sents his credentials to the senate of the
United States as a senator from Utah,
they will be accepted. The rejection of
Mormon Roberts by the house Of rep
resentatives because of his religious
convictions, and an incidental superau-
ity of matrimonial alliances, will not be
regarded as a precedent. The reason
given for this remarkable prediction Is
that deal has been made by the Re-
publican leaders Of the senate by which
Mr.. Srnoot will be seated, and the Nor
mons of Idaho will give their support to
the senatorial candidate the Republican
managers want elected from that State.
The senatorial fight in Idaho is really
the keynote of the situation, and the
| Mormons who are numerous in that
State, and recognize the jurisdiction of
the church In Utah. have used their
strength to force an agreement from
| the Republican managers Of the senate
which win give them representative in
that body.
1t will be we'll enough to wait awhile
| before becoming much agitated by this
prediction. It is made with much ap-
parent certainty, but it may not turn
out to be correct.

Al remarkable young Chinese woman
is studying at the University of Cali

old, daughter Of liberal-minded mer-
chant of Tien Tsin, has announced her
Intention to devote her life to the up
lifting of her sex in China. Although
foreign teachers and advocates the in
PRODUCTION of western customs, she is
not a Christianized Chinese. Her in
f1uence is all the greater for that fact,
and she is able to reach class of men
and women who would hardly regard
her with respect if she had repudiated
the religion of her ancestors. Miss Sieh
King King lectured recently in the Chi
nese theater in San Francisco before a
large crowd of her compatriots of the
better class. Men brought their wives
and daughters to hear what the leaders
Of social revolution had to say They
listened courteously, and many seemed
to approve her theories, that women
should be educated to be their hus-
bands companions. She condemned
the sIave-girl system and the foot
4 binding custom in unmeasured terms,
and urged the abandonment of the old
fashion Of secluding women of position
and wealth.

The Mad Mullah has method in his
madness. A story is told In the English
papers Of how he worked one of those
miracles" which drew many waverers
! to his banner. An English man-of-war

and at night threw a searchlight on to
the jungle covered mountains. Abdul
lah was in hiding there, and, knowing
from his visits to Alden what it was that
I his followers hailed as a new STAR told
them that the light was seeking him.
When the electric rays actually flood
ed his encampment he cried in triumph:
viii you deny now that I am under
the eye of God?" The Somali fell on
their knees, beat the earth with their
foreheads, and replied: "Thou art truly

entirely at the disposition of thy will. -

The automobile club of France has
decided that its next great interna-
tional road race shall be from Paris to
Madrid. There had been some talk of
running the race between Paris and
st. Petersburg. This project was aban-
doned because it was found that the
roads beyond the Prussian frontier
were very bad and because the first of
the route must be that which was
trayersed, last year, in the race be-
tween Paris and Berlin. BY arranging
the race to Madrid the automobile
club will give an opportunity to French
manufacturers of auto-carriages to adj
vertise their wares in Spain.
