To Save Sponge Fishers Lives.

Experiments are being made at La
Gou,cttc. Tunis, with new submarine
vessel. invented by Able Raoul. the
yicar-General of Carthage, to be used
In sponge fishing. The vessel is made
pf steel and resembles in shape a huge
porpoise. The entrance to the centra!
chamber is hermetically closed by
heavy lid fastened with screws, and
the occupants survey their surround
ings through portfolios. A long spear
terminating in a graphing hook,
worked from. the interior of the SUD-
marine. seizes the sponge and deposits
fl in net at the side of The vessel.
The craft is propelled by electricity
furnished by accumulators through a
cable attached to vessel on the sur
face. with which it is in constant CON-
munication by means of n telephone.
The vessel is lighted by electricity, and
a lamp hanging in the bow lights up
the surroundings. while the sponge
Gsher is beneath the water. Three men
may easily descend in the vessel at the
same time.
The object Of the vessel is to reduce
the great mortality among sponge fish

that Japan has requested Russia to
hasten her reply. NJ. hurlno, the Jap
anese Minister. has received no instruc-
tions on the subject. On the contrary,
he apparently realizes that the delay
is consequent upon exchanges between
st. Petersburg, Viceroy Alexlef and
Baron de Rosen, the Russian Minister
at Tokyo. NJ. Kurino reiterates his
opinion that Japan will not press Rus

SEN. BURTON INDICTED
Charged With Taking Money From
81 Louis Firm.
Allegation Made That He Csed His In:
huence 70 Stop Postal
Fraud Order.

st. Louis, Mo.-The Federal Grand
Jury returned an indictment against
Joseph Ralph Burton. United States
Senator from Kansas, charging him on
nine counts with accepting fve checks
Of $500 each from the Rialto Grain and
Securities Company between Novem.
Der o., 1902, and March &c. 1908, while
a United States Senator. 1t is charged
that the alleged payments were made
in return for services in intercedfng
with the Postmaster-Ge Chief
Postofice Inspector and other high
postoffice officials to induce them to
render a favorable decision in matters
affecting the permission Of the tRialto
Company to use the mails and prevent
the issuance Of fraud order.
Major Hugh G. Dennis. president OF
the company, and w. B. Mehaney. as
sociated with him, are named in the in
dictment as the men who made the
checks payable to Burton.
The Rialto Grain and Securities
Company has been under investigation
by the State courts for several months,
on account of internal troubles and the
complaints of investors.
Indictments have been found against
Major Dennis and others of the officers.
but they have never been convicted on
any of them. At one time the Rialto
Company's Offices were closed by court
officials on attachments secured by al
legged creditors, but were reopened az
ter arrangements to satisfy the claims
had been, made.
For several days past William E.
Cochran, Chief Postofice Inspector
from Washington, D. c.; Major Hugh
C. Dennis and w. B. Mehaney have
been before the Grand Jury, and it is
believed the indictment was found OH
their testimony.
AS result of his connection with the
company Dennis was indicted both in
the Federal and State courts, but the
United States court acquitted him.
Four indictments found in State courts
against Dennis are still pending. d.
The penalty provided upon conviction
for the offense with which Senator Bur-
ton is charged is penitentiary SEN
tence of not more than two years and
fine of not more than $4,000, and one
so convicted shall be rendered incapa-
BILE of holding Office Of trust, honorsor
emolument under the Government. "
United States Senator's are immune
from arrest except for certain speclned
crimes while the Senate is in session.
1t is expected that the present Senate
session will last until the summer, but
United States District Attorney Dyer
expects that Senator Burton will make
arrangementst at once for q speedy
trial. &c..

Peculiar Highland Remedies.

A popular Highland remedy for both
consumption and general debility was
what was Known as sudh nan cabar
("the juice Of dee's horns"). These
were gathered in the hills when the
animals cast them in the springtime.
They were boiled for some hours and
the juice obtained bottled, after being
strained. Candy sugar and whisky are
usually added to it nowadays. Crabs

and butter, were used for consumption,

Drying Damp Wheat.

1t is reported that heavy rains have
fallen in the centre of the wheat sec
tion Of Argentina, and that MUCH dam.
age has been done to the crop. This
will cause the European miliers to look
with suspicion on all importatons OF
wheat from that country this year, fol-
the Argentina farmers have way OF
spreading out their damp wheat to dry
and then sending it to market. Wher
treated in this way it is impossible tc
tell that the wheat has been wet, but
the wetting and drying tends to harden
the kernel, and when ground the quail
ify of the -four is inferior.
