Why Swimmers Drown.

A long-distance swimmer, correct
ing popular errors, states that acct
dents to swimmers are seldom due
to cramp, but to apoplexy resulting
from sudden cooling The sinking
three times is a curious error, as
some persons swallow water and
strangle on first immersion, sinking
but once, while others may sink and
rise so times. A man who has saved
IS lives has found that the drown
ing person cannot be stunned by a
blow in the face, but that he can be
handled by pressing the thumbs un-
der his ears and ducking his head un-
til manageable, this being done from
behind.

SCOTTISH LoCHs.
Some Surprising Depths Discovered by
SOundings Recently Made.

0VAANAhSS SNCSOnlAy AAoucs
For some time an important survey
Of the fresh-water lochs of Scotland
has been in progress under the leader
ship Of Sir John Murray, late Of the
Challenger expedition More than
100 lochs have beensuryeyed, includ-
ing the largest and most important
fresh-water basins in all parts Of the
country. Loeb Moran, in that dis
trict in the southwest of Inverness
so intimately associated with the
landing and last days Of Prince
Charles Edward Stuart in 1Y45, has
turned out to be the deepest loch
hitherto sounded in the United King
dom. The greatest depth obtained
by the surveyors was 1000 feet, or
1863 fathoms. For distance Of more
than seven miles the floor of the locn
fell deeper than 600 feet beneath the
surface of the water. Such depth
has not been attained in any other
loch hitherto visited by the lake sur
yeyors. Loeb Moran is separated
from the sea by very narrow strip of
land and its surface lies above sea
level, 50 that the deepest part Of the
loch sinks 972 feet or 1862 fathoms
beneath the surface Of the sea. No
where else, says the Chicago Daily
News, on the British plateau has such
an extraordinary depth been record
ed, and in order to meet with similar
depths one must proceed out into the
Atlantic ocean or to some Of the
iords off the coast Of Norway.

STRANGE PREDICTIONS.
Some of Them Already Fulfilled Time
for the Others Yet.

Tor The others Yet.
You ask in the New York World
"Where viii the sky line Of New York
be 100 years hence?7 This question,
says a writer in reply, promotes sug-
gestive reflection. For instance,
about the year 1916 Prussianarehi-
tect was officially sent to New York
to investigate her public buildings.
While waiting for a man with whom
he had an appointment he went into
one Of his habitual clairyoyant con-
ditions and said to one Of the Office
boys:
Get your pencil and paper-I
want you to write! You may say
that, instead of four stories, now be-
ing agitated by the city authorities
as the proper limit for the height of
buildings, before the close of the
nineteenth century New York city,
following the example of the con-
struction in western cities Of lofty
buildings, will have constructed nu-
merous buildings 10 to 35 stories
high.
"You may say that there will be
q large park in the central part Of the
city; also large park in the city of
Brooklyn, while numerous other
large properties will be acquired for
park purposes. 49,
"There will be several bridges
spanning the East river. -~i.s-
"There will be a political agita-
tion of the slavery question which
will result in warfare.
about the close Of the century
there will also be a war with for
eign power.
During the nineteenth century
there will be two presidents assassi-
mated, and in the early part of the
twentieth century another president
will be assassinated.
Finally, between the years 1900
and 1850 there will be an earthquake,
which will demolish everything be-
low this large and beautiful park,
which will be in the center of New
York city, and there will be nothing
left of all her lofty buildings. All
will be covered by go feet of water
below this park, which will be located
IN the central part of New York city.
''New York is founded on a rock
bed, but all beneath is subject to a
molten condition SO intense that this
'oek is being burned and continuous

According to the above specified
this earthquake is due now
t any moment, and it is peculiarly
digestive and significant that when
azure would display the power of
Ter enormous majesty in the upheav-

ion Of large and populous cities for

uwcst CT mr. Lnavant's Astonishing Luck
with Tomcod [ iscovered.

An enterprising man in New Jer-
@Ry has invented new device for
mtching tomcods and according to
Ill who have seen it in operation, says
@e New York Sun, it is wonder.
Everyone who has angled for this
particular fish knows that it will bite
anything except bare hook. 1t is
a matter Of record that one fisherman
when his bait gave out put the white
Of a hard-boiled egg taken from his
lunch basket ON the hook and caught
little tomcods as fast as the line went
overheard.
Anyone can catch a lot Of the fish.
Skill is shown not so much in bring
ing home a basketful as in catching
home boat load.
G. III. Chavant, treasurer Of the
Greenville Camera club, astonished
his friends by the immensely Of his
catches. He has been bringing home
more fish in d day than any other
three anglers could capture and for a
time he was the wonder and envy Of
The fishing fraternity. But the secret
lis out now.

bay not far from where Mr.. Chavant
was fishing recently and noticed
What the camera man was work.
ing with the queerest looking ar
rangement he had ever seen. Inves-
tigation showed that Chayant had
stripped the covering from an UNI
brella and attached a short line with
three hooks to the end of each rib.
The apparatus was attached to the
main fish line and thrown overheard.
I When he felt nibble Mr.. Chavant
gave twitch with his rod and waited
for another. He didn't have long to
wait as the tomcods were biting furi-
ously, and after a few moments Of
switching he pulled up his machine
and unlocked IA fish.
Now that the secret is out nearly
everybody in the neighborhood is us
ing the new spreader and Mr.. Cha
want has lost a little Of hiiis prestige.

According to the Oculists.

According to one Of the papers, the
general opinion among oculists and
opticians is that "a few generations
hence there will scarcely be man or
woman not wearing glasses" One
leading firm Of opticians declares that
they are now selling almost double
the number Of pairs Of glasses they
were ten years ago. This does not
mean, apparently, that the eyes with
each generation grow weaker; it is,
rather, that the environment Of mod
eTn civilization is inimical to sound
and healthy sight.

THE ABODE OF JOSEPHINE.
''La Malmaison," Interesting Home Of
Empress, Now National Property.

''La Malmaison," Interesting Home Of
Empress, Now National Property.
la Malmaison," so full of the
memories Of Josephine and Of Ma
poleon has become state property,
The house was purchased bya wealthy
merchant, NJ. Osiris, who, after ex-
pending a great deal of money upon
its restoration, has presented it to the
nation. The authorities had some
hesitation in accepting the handsome
gift, on the ground that its main
tenance entails expenditure, and that
its removal from Paris initiates
against it becoming a popular show
place. But, happily, their seruples
have been overcome and ia NAL

Napoleonic relics-that is, if the
wishes of the donors are complied
with.
LA Malmaison" was the elegant
cage that kept poor Josephine cap
tive in. the years of her divorce. 1t
was here, says the Pail Pail Gazette,
that she died in 1914, on the morrow
Of the entry of the allies into Paris.
1t was precisely drive that she took
with Emperor Alexander Of Rus
STA, who had come to set the Bour,
bons on the throne again, that gave
the unhappy princess a chill from
which she died. Josephine thought
to make a Trianon at 'sLa Malmai-
SON." she only succeeded in making
a comfortable house with nothing
very remarkable about it. Josephine
held something OF a court at the
chateau, and she gave receptions
which were very popular with the
great aritistes of Paris.
The most dramatic episode in the
history of "La Malmaison" is the
adieu Of the emperor on the eve of |
his departure from st. Helena.
There, in the great vestibule that di-
vides the house in two, he stood,
grave and silent, surrounded by his
family. Madame Mere" was there,
with tears running down her cheeks.
"Adieu, mon fills. "Adieu, ma mere"
That was all, and the emperor turned
away with never another word, walk
ing slowly into the garden and down
5he avenue of plane trees. At the
bottom he seated himself upon an old
stone bench, and there he remained,
with his head bent upon his breast,
until darkness had fallen. With a ST.
ent gesture he sent away every one
Who would arouse him from his SOM
)er reverie.
Napoleon III bought ola Malmai-

ne, both Of whom he buried in the
title church of Rueil, whose soft
.himes must often have fallen upon

cendant thought to make museum

fifty sacks of barley were burned at the

o'clock Saturday evening. The thresh-
ing outfit and the grain both belonged
to Mr.. Arment and the loss is estimated
at $500. The machine had just closed
down for the days run and part Of the
crew had gone when the fire was dis
covered. Sy some rapid work the
greater portion Of the barley was saved.
The machine was purchased this year
and was practically new. It is sup
