A CURIOUS CRAFT.
Description of mn UnsInkabIe Vessel
IsuiIt After Model Seen In II Vision by
Virginia Preacher.


Virginia Preacher.
John X. Leedy, Dunkard preacher,
- years of age, a native of Rocking
ham county, Virginia, is without
doubt one of the greatest believers
in dreams that ever lived. Through
what he claims to be a divine inspira-
ton he has been enabled to invent
the "Leedy unsinkable ship"
Asked how he had come to contrive
the ship, Mr.. Leedy replied:
Several years ago, just after one
of the big ocean liners loaded with
human freight went to the bottom OF
the Atlantic ocean and all on board
were lost, | had dream. In this
dream | talked with an angel. The
messenger of God painted large
picture of ship and commanded me
to set about and construct such a
vessel for the good or mankind.
81 thought but little of the dream
until two or three nights afterward,
when the angel again appeared and
directed me to do as / mad been told,
and for a second time a large picture
of a ship. which was to be my model,
was painted. ] gave the matter more
serious thought on the following day,
and for several nights thereafter my
dreams were of nothing but the ship.
| read my Bible and found certain
passages which told me | must get to
work. The result of my labors Is
what will be known to the world as
"Leedy's unsinkable ship
you ask me to describe this great
lre-saving invention.
The hull is comprised of an outer
and inner casing, the inner casing
composed of copper plates, soldered
together. thus making it water and
air tight. Between the outer and in
ner castings from n short distance
above the lower deck there is placed
a filling of coal tar or some other
suitable material. The lower deck is
composed of two layers of metal
soldered together, thus making the
hold of the vessel air-tight.
Between the ribs of the vessel and
between the outer and inner castings
above the lower deck are empty
spaces which are adapted to be closed
by air-tight coverings, and communi.
eating with these spaces are air tubes
for supplying and COMPRISING air in
the spaces, the air being supplied
by an air-compressing engine on the
main deck.
"On both sides of the ship and out
side of the hull are arranged a ser.
les of bags which can be run up and
down the sides of the vessel by means
of chain and pulley on each side
Should the ship run on sand ban
or rock these bags may be sent to the
bottom of the ship, and there filled
with compressed air, thus lifting the
ship off the bar or rock.
The coal bunliers and various other
compartments above the ship are
adapted to be transformed into com.
pressed air chambers at will, so il
is seen that, even though the shir
should spring a leak of very serious
nature, her bilge pumps and many
air chambers would prevent her sink
ing. Her hold, on account of its aiI
and water-tight construction, would
be vast air tank that would be i'm
possible to sink"

HINTS FOR BEEKEEPLRS.
How to Construct "A Really Useful ant
Valuable bee, Drone and
Queen SITTER.

The bee. drone and queen sitter
wish to describe has been used by the
inventor, Mr.. Hannemann, of Brazil,
in some form or other for great many
years. The way l have constructed il
is this: A light open box, the size of
the hive body, was covered at the bot
tom with sheet of queen-eXcluding
zinc. A cover was hinged to this box
and also covered by the same material,
This device comes handy many times

wish to increase their colonies any
more, may sometimes be puzzled to
know what to do with such swarm

COMPOSITE STOCK FOOD.
German Preparation or Compound
Which Can BE Preserved for
Any Length of Time.

In Germany, in connection with some
OF the slaughter houses, has been COM
pounded a stock food, that, it is hoped,
will become both popular and useful.
1t is compounded of the chaff or
hulls of grain finely ground, the husks
of peanut kernels, molasses and steam
dried steriliZed blood. A per cent. of
phosphates is also added to the prepara-
ton.
These ingredients are thoroughly
mixed and dried, and a certain portion
of molasses (Which has been heated
to make it more liquid is added After
this has been we'll mixed and dried,
another portion of molasses is added.
and after the final mixing and drying,
the preparation is ready for the market,
and is sold in bags of 165 pounds
weight at $2.75 per bag, retail. The
chaff is imported from America and
the molasses is the product of the Ger
man beet sugar factories. The dried
blood meal, it is claimed contains 20 to
% per cent. of protein and fat, while oats
contain much less. The assurance is
given that this preparation can be pre-
served for any length of time, and that
it will not deteriorate with age.
In feeding horses and beef cattle, it is
advised to begin with one-half pound
per day, increasing to five or six pounds,
and decreasing the use of other food ac-
cordingly.

GIANT RACE COMING.
Professor of Chicago University Says
the Use of the New Food. Lecithin.
Increases Growth 60 Per Cent.

The age of the race of giants is
about to be ushered in again Hence
forth there will he no Dygmies, for
wonderful food substance has been
discovered that makes men and ami
mails grow-grow fast and large.
The myths that have come down
from ancient days tell of races of
giants which inhabited the earth or
dwelt in the islands of the sea. His
tory, as constructed from old rec
ords and folks lore, is filed with
stories of Goliaths and Simpsons, to
say nothing of Hercules. Science has
proved that the animals of the earth
were once far larger than at present.
The giant races may all return as
the result of the newly discovered
food substance which stimulates
growth so rapidly. The new food is
lecithin. Its wonderful qualities have
just been demonstrated by a series
of experiments conducted by DR..
Shinlishi Haitai, professor of neurOl-
ogy at the University of Chicago. DR..
Haitai experimental with white rats,
and by feeding them lecithin made
lltli SiO" bU per CtllJ liSltI lllIL
rats grow ordinarily. And this under
conditions of atmosphere and general
surroundings that were unfavorable.
The scientists say that lecithin will
have a similar effect on human be-
ings.
Lecithin is an organic phosphorus
containing body found in various
animal tissues. 1t is a brown. butter
like substance, with an odor like that
of rancid fat.
The results of Dr. Haitais expert
ments, which he puts forth through
the American Journal of Physiology
are in part as follows:
The white rats that received lecith-
in, either by intramuscular Injection
or by the mouth, gained in body
weight more rapidly than those which
did not receive the food, the average
gain being 60 per cent greater than
was noted in the rats fed ON plain
grain diets.
The relative weight Of the central
nervous system of the rats treated
with lecithin was normal.
The nervous system of the rats
treated with lecithin contained the
same proportion of water and solids
as those of other rars.
The professors experiments show,
therefore, that the growth induced by
lecithin is normal and healthy. 1t
stimulates all parts and organs of the
body exactly alike, thus acting un-
like other stimulants, which affect
different organs of the body in differ
ent ways.

In the senate the galleries were crowd
ed and there was mass Of floral trib-
utes. Nearly every senator was in his
seat when the gayel fell. ts
t In the house, which is not SO sedate
as the upper branch Of congress, the
scene for an hour or two before the
chamber convened resembled somewhat
an exciting day on the Stock Exchange
in New York. Pages were scurryipg
about trying to find members for con-
stituents, The laughing crowd Of repre-
sentatives were admiring their new desks
and the other improvements that have
been completed since the adjournment Of
the Fifth-seventh Congress.
Pushing about on the floor were
crowds of visitors, many Of them women,
all anxious to obtain tickets which
would entitle them to seats to witness
the opening proceedings. The old
habitues Of the chamber were kept busy
pointing ont the new members who
made their appearance on the floor for
the first time, The older members had
most patronizing manner in speaking
of the infants, as they named the
members serving their first term.
The opening proceedings in both
chambers departed little from the usual
routine. Following prayer by the chap
lians, the roll was called and new, mem
bers sworn in. In the house the nomi-
nation Of candidates for the speakership
attracted attention and the respective
choices were given ovations Uncle joe
Cannon, the new speaker, found his
desk almost hidden beneath a wealth oi
flowers.

The two huts of these persons were close together. but one night the terrific cold ripped q great crevasse in the ice, and the young mans house was left iso- lated. 4 gorge loo feet deep and 20 feet wide separated it from the igloo. or nut containing the girl: but there was a narrow bridge of ice left across the creVasse. and this. the young man found. would bear his weight.
