. Flat Motor Boats.

A series of experiments is now be
ing made with motor boats in France
which may revolutionize the construc
ton of these greyhounds of the river
and harbor. Instead of building thu
hull of the boats like toothpicks, after
the fashion now approved, they ART
constructed like shingles, the pur
pose being to have them skim ovel
the surface of the water instead Of
pillow through it. A broad flat-bot
toned boat of 9h feet beam and 1917
feet long was equipped with motor
capable of driving an ordinary launch
eight or nine miles an hour. She at
tanned speed of seventeen and one
half miles an hour, result which ha,
called forth still more experiments.
Flat-bOttomed shallow boats hav.
proved very successful sailing craft
and large numbers Of them may be
found on every sheet of water fire
Quented by sailing boats, but these
experiments with them as motor boats
are unique Hand it is, expected thai
they will result in a marvellous devel
opment of speed.

Father Objected to the Man His Girl
Had Chosen.
Because he attempted to administer
an old-fashioned spanking to his o.
year-old daughter, who made a con-
tract to marry the man OF her choice
without her fathers consent. Alec Var
cilucci of 100 South Schell street finds
himself bound over for trial on the
charge of assault and battery.
The father in former days was &C.
customed to chastise his daughter,
Elizabeth, for soiling her dresses and
pilfering jam. When she became en-
gagged to a youth of who mhe did not
approve he attempted to take the same
course. Spurning the paternal slipper,
the young woman, in the offended dig
nifty of her twenty-five years, had her
father arrester. Magistrate Smith de-
cided that the father should have used
persuasion instead of force and held
him under $500 bail for court.-Phila.

No, do not cut the small growth OF
asparagus, but let it grow until seed
is formed; then cut and allow to lie
en- bed over winter. It would be bet.
ter for the bed If you did not cut next
year; but as one is always anxious for
product, you could cut few of the
stronger sprouts, leaving the rest. 1t
is important that you cut down the
growths before the seed has matured,
because if the ripe seed falls on the
ground the bed will become full OF
seedlings, which will be much harder
to destroy than other weeds. Cover
the bed with good coating of we'll.

device consists Of pair Of fiat boards

These clamps consist of pivoted levers,

are first clamped in position. Then
the jwaistband is pulled up until the

Should judge that your soil has
much to do with the watery condition
of your potatoes, and should advise
that you underdrain your land. The
first cost of doing this is considerable,
but the results obtained in better and
larger crops, added to the fact that
the land is in condition to be worked
earlier and later than land not drain.
ed, will, in very short time, pay
all cost of draining. A slightly higher

but the soil has much to do with the

A COTTON FIRE.
Nearly a Hundred Bales Badly Dam
aged in. Raleigh.

There was great danger OF an extensive
cotton fire yesterday at about half past
twelve O'Clock on the Southern Railroad
cotton platform at the freight depot.
The alarm was not alone given by the
city fire system, but the shrill whistle OF
the freight engine at the depot rent It's
warning. The cotton on fire was ON the
platform next the depot and the entire
platform was well covered with cotton
bales.
The cotton on fire belongs to o. +.
Heath & Company, and from ninety to
one hundred bales were injured, though
no bale was consumed. A heavy stream
Of water was turned on and after much
pulling and hauling the fire seemed to
have been conquered. 1t Is supposed that
the fire began from sparks which fell
from a passing engine.
The injury cannot be exactly told till
the burnt bales are carefully gone over,
but it is estimated that 800 will cover the
loss. The cotton was fully covered by IN
surance.
