A NEW DARIUS.

And now comes j. P. Holland, the
inventor of the submarine boat, and
| says that his invention on which he
has labored more than thirty years
is now completed, and will be given
to the public just as soon as his
rights in the matter can be protected
by the government. What he is to
give to the public is no more nor less
than wings. They will be cheap, too,
he us, only $1,000 a pair. 1t
requires no practice whatever to use
them, and one can fly twenty miles
an hour with as little fatigue or less
than he can now take an hours
walk.
Holland has already demonstrated
what he can do in submarine navi.
CATION, and he says that aerial navi-
CATION is even an easier task. Taking
Mr.. Holland at his word, the air will
soon be full of winged mortals. No
need of dying to secure wings, a ten
dollar bill is all that is necessary.
There will be "high-fyers' then in
deed. Locomotion on wheels will be
a thing of the past, except for heavy
freight. The passenger department
of railroads will have. to go out of bu-
siness or. run trains merely for inva-
lids. Bicycles. will become a curiosi-
ty, and will be found only in muse
ums. Automobiles will cease to be
manufactured, and their noisy prog
ress will give way to the sound of
thousands. of tapping wings and the
whirr of rapidly darting mortals in
the atmosphere above us.
This is no dream. Holland will
make good his promises, he says,
Just as soon as the government grants
him his patents Hurry up. Uncle
Sam, the people Of this country re
CARELESS of party want to fly. Bring
on the wings.

oyter Dispute Again.

Gov. Vardaman has received a pc
tition from the raw oyster dealers
along the Mississippi coast urging
that steps be taken to abrogate the
agreement previously entered into
between the States of Mississippi
and Louisiana regarding the dis
puted oyster reefs and fishing terri
tory, concerning which litigation is
now pending before the United
States Supreme Court.
The petition does nat definitely
outline the course Of action which
the oyster men desire the chief ex-
ecutive to pursue, and it seems that
his hands are tied in the matter, as
the agreement was made during the
previous administration, and is to
hold good until the case pending be-
fore the United States Supreme
Court is settled.
The neutral ground described in
the agreement includes some of the
best oyster reefs in the Mississippi
sound, and the Louisiana boats take
oysters therefron freely, but the
Mississippi oyster men are unable
to do so on account of Louisiana's
armed patrol.
During the early part of the pres
ent year Gov. Vardaman visited the
gulf coast and a similar petition was
presented to him by the Oysterlnen's
Protective Association, but he was
unable to offer any relief.

Vice-Admiral Rojestvensky's asser.
ton that he was attacked by tive
japanese torpedo boats in the North
sea is calculated to provoke smile.
Had there been any japanese craft in
that vicinity we should have been very
apt to have heard more of them, as 1t
goes without saying that having ven
tured that far in the teeth of the enemy
they would have made themselves
manifest. The Russian vice-admiral
lacks experience with Japanese torpedo
boats: though 1t may be that British
steam trawlers resemble them under
