HAYS
SUMMER HOME

John Hay, Secretary of State, is gem
orally admitted, even by his political
opponents, to be a long-headed states
man, who couples with an Unborn talent
for diplomacy a large fund of plain
common sense. Nobody can doubt this,
it would seem, who has seen his coun-
try home on the shore of Lake Sunapee,
New Hampshire. The estate skirts the
shore of the lake for some miles, and
extends a long way back into the hills.
A large, low rambling frame house. with
wide verandas stands upon the high
bank of the lake, a few rods back from
the shore, surrounded by meadow and
orchard, and here Col. Hay gets sum-
mer rest, with no close neighbors to dis
turb his privacy unlimited; but from
his front windows he can see cottages
enough, and to spare, to keep any one
from Ieeling lonely.
Four steamers, with a joint capacity
to accommodate fifteen hundred pas
sengers at the same time ply up and
down the lake, passing and repassing
his home, and calling at the numerous
landings whenever a signal is hoisted
showing that even a single passenger
desires to go aboard. The elevation Of
the lake itself twelve hundred feet
above sea level, and some of the hAis
surrounding this lovely sheet of pure
spring water rise twenty-eight hundred
feet. The late is stocked with millions
of fry yearly from a hatchery near by
contains six kinds of trout, landlocked
salmon and black bass SailbOats, row.
boats and canoes can be hired from
Sunapee harbor, and the lake is reach
ed from Boston in three and one-halt
hours, and from New York in nine
hours.
Col Hays house has many windows,
but one will look in vain for any sign of
mosquito netting or wire upon any OF
them, for, Notwithstanding the unusual
amount of rain which has fallen this
spring, a mosquito is a rare bird at
Lake Sunapee. and dwellers at this pic
turesque summer resort are able to sit
upon the verandas in the evenings or
roam the woods by day without suffer-
ing the least annoyance from these
pests. The credit for this state of
things is not due to the efforts of any
one who has waged a scientific war
tale with drainage shovel or kerosene
sprayer, but is solely owing to the fact
that the shores of the lake are precl-
pitous, and the water deepens rapidly
! from the edge so that no shallow places
are afforded for the larvae to develop in
Those who know how sadly the serenity
of a mUonlit night is maued by con-
slant slappng of the face, neck, hands
and arms, and scratching of the ankles
were these insects have stung, Will APP
preciate at it's full value the freedom
from the mosquito nuisance which Lake
Sunapee enjoys. and will join in the
general chorus that the Secretary OF
State knows how to get about all the
comfort out of his busy life that Is pos

The train neared NewburypOrt and
the conductor stood by the mans seat
awaiting developments.
Finally the man looked up and smil-

II was foolish" he said. Il guess !

The conductor breathed a sigh of re-
lief and the passengers smiled.

SAN FRANCISCO. August G.-S. S.
Dickinson, superintendent of the Com
mercial Gable Company in Nova SEQ
tia who has been in Hawaii for some
time past making arrangements for the
landing of the company's proposed Pa
cifc cable at that point, returned here
yesterday on the steamer Sierra and is
a guest at the Palace Hotel. Mr.. Dick
enson was greatly shocked when he
came ashore yesterday afternoon to
learn of John w. Mackay's death, for,
as he explained when seen last even
ing, Mr.. MaCkay was in excellent health
when he parted from him here in May.
81 do not suppose Mr.. Mackay's death
will affect the cable project in the
slightest particular" he said, 81 have
been out of the world, l might say for
some time past, but from all that l can
learn the cable will be laid and in oper-
alton by November | have perfected
all arrangements for the landing of the
cable at the other end, but l expect to
be called back there shortly. In fact l
may find it necessary to go back on the
next trip of the Sierra"
1t is announced that the cable will
land at Waikiki on a strip of land pur-
chased for $4,000 from F. NJ. Hatch,

the TERROR RAMPUS
WICKED FIGHTING MACHINE IS
LAUNCHED.
A Vessel That is Designed to Move I'm
der Water-She is Built to Destroy
Battleships.

Christened Grampus, the first sub
marine tOrpedO-boa ever launched in
to the water of the mighty Pacific Gid
ed swiftly and silently down the ways
at the Union Iron Works at San Fran
cisco recently, with spectacular red up
bursts of Greek fire issuing from her
matches and gloTiOusly bathing in Grim
son light a suddenly unfurled bright
new American flag floating out easily
from her little foremost A thousand
spectators were momentaTily awed by
the surprising beauty of the sight and
then an approving cheer went up from
launching stage, from lofty scaffolding
on nearby building ships, from shore
and pier and wharf opposite and from
the decks of pleasure craft drawn close
into the crescent cove to witness the
novel spectacle of giving to the sea at
highest tide the smallest and wickedest
fighting machine known to naval war
fare.
For twelve months, day after day,
skilled mechanics had worked upon that
queer. cigar shaped thing of steel to
perfect her for her future duties as a
destroyer of battle-ships. Only sixty
five feet long and twelve feet in diam
eter through the thickest part, this
wonder of modern science was designed
to stay under water, if need be, for
week with seven men in her; and he
quired by government specifications 10
travel at the rate of twelve and a half
miles an hour to run for six hours under
water, to approach under water within
400 or 500 yards of its victim, and dis
charge a it a dynamite torpedo and to
send from that same bow tube a torpedo
for distance of 900 yards or more tnan
half mile.
The cost of one battle-ship would
build eighty-fve such little demons OF
the deep. and the crew of a battle-shlp
would man 100 of these diminutiVe
water devils. But the United States
Government believes in the effective
ness of these small sea sneaks and has
contractd for the construction of fif-
teen. -Four have already been tested
and with encouraging success. The
other place of building them is Eliza

Bloodhounds, Notwithstanding that a
club was established in America, have
not won in public favor. There is prob
ably no breed whose true characteris-
ties are less understood, a widespread
idea existing that this is a ferocious
animal, for which, however, there is no
justification, as the modern blood
hound is a noble and sensible creature,
peculiarly sensitive to kind treatment.

 Countess Marguerite Cassini. the ac. compiished niece of the well known Russian, Count Cassini. is a countess in her own right, not by heredity, but by special grace of the czar. and a curious story is told of the manner in which she won her title. It was when Count Cassini had his fateful confer ence with Ii Hung Chang at Peking. long before the Boxer troubles. The counts interpreter was away, for Li's call was unexpected. and as the Chi nese statesman could not speak Rus sian and the Russian diplomat did not understand Chinese the conference came 10 deadlock. The counts aiece, who had picked up something of the language. stepped into the breach. and the affair was arranged to the satisfac. tiOn of both parties.

 A short time ago some one put on the market an ingenious device fer holding loose sheets of paper together It took the place of the pin. By "short time" mean a matter of some five or six years. Today there are more than twenty different kinds of clips. selling from GO cents per 1000 to 9 cents per 100. and considerable capital is invest ed in their manufacture. The same general principle is followed in all. and 1t Is assumed that each improvement is patented Corporations have been formed to make nothing but clips. and competition is lively. The original pat entee will TO doubt become a million aire, though he may make only 1 cent on each 1000 sold. It is the simple, little.

DuMoNTs MARROW ESCAPE,

ncronaut, had narrow escape from
death the other day, when his airship
became unmonageable and fell into the
bay Of Monaco
His intention was TO make trip to

he left the aerodrome, the weather
was fine and the motor worked smooth

ontanged In one Of the wires, and the
aeronaut lost control Of the ship, Thon
sQuall struck II and carried It sky

cncy cord. and let the gas escape but
gap was torn IN the cloth, and the
ship fell with great velocity Every
thing in the car was then thrown out
to Tighten the craft and this checked
rs descent somewhat, but finally II
dropped like stone into the water
The master Of tho craft became en-
