DEEP SEA LEVEL RISES.
Changes Observed from Several Points
Along Mediterranean Show
Increase In Depth.

Changes in the level of the sea arc
we'll shown in the case of the Med
iterranean. NJ. Phi. Negris, in a re-
cent lecture presented to the Academy
Of Science, furnishes interesting in
formation on this point, it being ap-
parent that the sea has greatly in
creased in depth as compared to an
Gent times. Formerly o bridge 5000
feet long united Leucate to the con-
tinent. To-day it is submerged, but
the foundations of the work were dis
covered IL feet beneath the furnace.
1t may, therefore, be concluded that
since the construction of the bridge
the sea has risen at this point over
nine feet. In the bay of Amphissa'
Greece, there has been observed a
mole that Is also owe nine feet be-
meath the surface. At Rhenee there
has been found a completely sub
merged dock, evidently of Roman con-
struction, the depth of the sea above
the dock being at places fully nine
| feet. From all of these facts one may
| conclude that there has taken place ar
| important increase in the depth OF the
| sea since the Roman period. the Med

| feet in about 1000 years.

UNCLE SAM SAVES PELICAN
Government Establishes Island in a
Florida River Where Bird rs
Secure from Hunters.

Uncle Sam has stepped in just in time
to save an American species. the brown
pelican, from being killed off entirely
by plume hunters. He Is now a real
father of pelicans, for the government
has taken over an island in the Indian
river, in Florida, where these queer
birds live, and Pelican island is sacred.
He is also q protector of sea gulls now,
for all his lighthouse reservations and
Jther government ground on the coasts
are reserved as breeding places for these
birds, where no man may hunt them or
even frighten them. In his coast forti-
1cations, too, the wild birds find safe
refugees, and in places as ear big cities
rs Sandy Hook, which is within sight of
the great, crowded city of New York.
the birds have such safe homes that a
naturalist can find scores of uncommon
species which are not at all shy there,
because they are entirely undisturbed.

ROOSEVELT AND PROSPERITY

(By an old Jackson Democrat
It's well to think before you vote,
And not TO party I've deyout;
Compare the present with the past,
Then nail your banner to the mast.
I've been Democrat three score;
I'm now convinced, but not before,
Democracy means empty purae,
Republican IL the reverse.
Our country now, it's plain to see,
Is booming in prosperity;
Oar money now is all the best,
To every one is welcome guest.
But how was IL from LineOln's timer
Some dollars were not worth q dime;
In every town, 10 every State,
The number none can estimate
OF every size and every grade,
With thousands that were never paid;
Counterfeite were then the go,
The good from bad was hard to know;
And as for gold, our Treasury
Had all the gold that one could see.
Colds now our standard, ald by who?
Not by Democracy-th8tiB iB true.
With greenbscks in your pocket now
You travel every State, you know;
Bat how in Democratic times,
When dollars often passed as dimes7
Now farmers get their fullest share,
The laborer's closet Is not bare;
No idler now need str0le this land,
There is work to do for every hand,
And for bis wage he's fully paid,
Employers begging for his aid.
With ell these truths so plain In view,
And none can say they are not true,
Why should weehange our Nations head
No reason for it-truly said.
Roosevelt, we know, his party, too,
Have rendered all that's justly due;
Not penny wise, but millions spent
Brought prosperous times. az now
present.
Men, think it over. You will see
Good cause to shun Democracy.
lt's after spoils-ite leaders are
Their purpose is to get full share,
And you who boost them get kick
Dem ocracy Is but a trick.
Rooseyelt's a man that we can trust,
Money has for him no lust,
His every act shows honest, true,
His life all wishing can review,
Firm In mind, honest in will,
No better man the place can gill;
Then vote for Roosevelt, you will see
Continuous prosperity.

Life Guard Drowned.

Atlantic City, n. j., Aug. 26.-Al
Davis, one Of the Oldest life guards on
the beach here, was drowned shortly be-
fore IL o'clock, this morning. Davis
had gone out to rescue an unknown
bather of the foot of Virginia avenue.
He succeeded, after struggle, and the
bather was taken into a boat in which
other life guards had arrived in the
meantime. Davis was in no distress
aud diu not get into the boat but start
to swim ashore with the life line. There
was the usual great throng of bathers
along the beach and a crowd seized hold
of the shore end of the line and began to
run along the sand with the idea Of
pulling the man out OF the ocean. Their
intentions were good but it was by rea-
son of their action that Davis wa;
drowned. He was dragged under tht
water and, seemingly was unable to re-
lease himself from the rope which ws'
twisted about his arm. When drawn
ashore he was breathing his last and al
though over an hour was spent in heroic
efforts at resusitation he never regaineC

Tailor Shoots Wife.

AS a result of family quarrel, the
exact details of which are not known,
Rosie Dvoitzsky, the younf vile
of a Russian tailor, was shot
down by her husband in front of
her home in New York yesterday, and
is now dying in the GouvernOur Hos
pital. Dvoritzsky at once took to his
heels, revolver in hand, pursued by
shouting crowd. At the corner of Madi-
sou and Pike streets, Max Lipken, a
drug clerk, sprang out of drug store
and seized the fugitive, and in an in
slant the crowd was upon the two men,
who were struggling on the sidewalk.
Captain Shaw, of the Madison street
police station, two detectives and a
policeman rushed up at this moment
aud took Dvoritzsky to the police
station. In the meantime the wounded
woman had been left lying on the side
walk, where her helpless condition Was
noticed and she was picked up and
carried to the police station, from which
she was taken to the hospital. Mrs.
Annie Cohen, a sister of the victim,
said later that Dvoritzsky had been try
ing to force his wife to go out and earn
her living, and that she had steadily re-
fused. The quarrel reached such a
climax Wednesday night, Mrs. Cohen
declared, that her sister had packed up
her belongings and bad gone to the Cohen
home to spend the night. Yesterday
morning, Mrs. Cohen added, her sister
was afraid to return to her home alone,
and so she aud her husband had volun-
teered to 20 with her, When the three
reached ITO Madison street they
found the tailor standing on the pave
ment, and he fired at his wife almost
Immediately.
