HAS NEW TRIAL.
RRdd0tz Submarine Craft Makes Sue
sessful Voyage Uader
Lake Michigan.

The RadGetz submarine boat has
been given another trial in the bay at
Milwaukee, Wis, and made success
full trip. This boat, the invention of an
Oshkosh man, has been considerably
improved since it was last described in
the newspapers. 1t is now operated by
storage batteries instead of chemical
electricity. The trip was made while
the lake was rough, but it did not af-
feet the boat in the least. Clarence j
Allen and Mr.. Raddatz were on board
and Benjamin Z. Leuzarder and a
party of interested friends were in a
boat on the surface watching carefully
the movements of the submarine craft

WOMEN ON HORSEBACK.
They Learn tn Ride Very Readily and
Are Noted for Their
Courage.

The number of women, especially in
the upper circles of the east, who
have taken to equestrianism is increas-
ing very rapidly. 1t has been noted
as a somewhat singular fact that the
average woman becomes a more pro-
ficient rider than the average man, for
she has naturally lighter hands and is
so enabled to obtain more satisfactory
results. Riding, like all other exer-
cises that require both grace. and skill,
is more easily learned while young,
and this aptitude of the youngsters has
been source of modification to manv
of their elders who could not grasp
the knack of riding so easily How
ever, but few women who once begin to
learn to ride ever give it up either from
distaste or inability to master the
difficulties of learning. Generally wom-
en- are very courageous riders, and it
it a fact that a well-bred horse never
Lacks courage when woman is on his
back
Stout women experience the great
est difficulty in learning to ride, and
seldom become, graceful or competent
riders. No stout woman should at
tempt to ride at other gaits than the
walk or canter. and it is at this latter
gait that all women look their best.
Beginners, as a rule, are always nerv-
Gus and haunted by fear of falling,
and even the more experienced riders
do not seem to enjoy riding horse
that rears, and, in fact, this is quite
the worst fault horse can have

EARTH GOES SOARING.
An Extraordinary Natural Phenom-
enon Observed Recently
in Italy.

Count Alnerico, scientist of un-
questioned standing, sends an extraor-
dinary story OF a natural phenomenon
from Pavia. He reports that in the
district of Cervarese, near Padua and
Vicenza, there occurred last August
simple but most strange earth con-
vulsion. 1t began about the Sd and
lasted until the Esd Of the month and
was seen by laborers working in that
part of the district known as '"Traver-
so del sabion." Here and there clods
of earth, propelled by some unseen
force, jumped up into the air to
height of from six to ten feet in the
form of a parabola, falling again on
the ground three or four yards away.
This phenomenon was most fire.
quent during the hottest hours of the
day, from nine till four o'clock, and
occurred about every ten minutes in
various places simultaneously. It
ceased upon the advent of cold rains
The clods had an ordinary appear
ance. One which was taken away for
examination weighed about four
pounds and was almost circular in
shape.
