differences of opinion in regard to

to republican candidates for governor
in this state but when it is universally

Etalian Inventions Will Make the
Deep Give Up Its Treasures.
Two wonderful inventions have been
made by Cavaliere Pino of Genoa, the
hydroscope and the marine elevator,
which may make possible the recovery
Of all the great treasures lost at sea
since the world began
The MICROSCOPE, so far as one can
see, consists of long tube fitted with
various optical instruments at the end.
The secret of the instrument lies with
in-in the mechanism that gives it the
power.
When the instrument is fitted to a
ship an image Of the water and the
things therein beneath the ship can be
thrown on to screen on deck, SO that
number Of people at one time can see
what is going on in the water beneath
them. The instrument. moreover, can
be so adjusted that it will reflect not
only objects lying beneath it, but those
around and above, thus enabling cap
tain to keep an eye on the keel Of bis
ship or to examine the keel in case of
accident while steaming at full speed.
Cavaliere Pino is confident his instru-
ment is powerful enough to enable him
to peer into the deepest depths of the
sea. In case the water should prove too
dense, however, and for use at night
time he has devised new form of elec-
trio lamp which will throw shafts of
light to practically any depth.
For use in connection with his hydro
scope Cavaliere Pine has invented an
Elevator for raising from the bottom
Of the sea any desired object. The con-
struction of this instrument, the tests
already made of it and it's future DOS
sibilities are most Interestingly de-
scribed by DR.. G. Libertacrio, who as a
personal friend Of the inventor is in
close sympathy with his work. The
field for the use of the hydroscope in
the recovery of sunken treasure alone is
almost unlimited and quite outdis.
tances the widest flights of fancy in
which even Jules Verne ever indulged.
| "The figures with regard to ship.
i wrecks prove what a vast fortune
awaits Cavaliere Pino," asserts DR.. Lib
ertacrio, IF the invention can be used
but for no purpose other than to raise
| the vessels that sink month by month.
J On an average $50 vessels of more than
800 tons sink every month. The value
Of each ship lost Of above 500 tons in
Guiding cargo amounts to hundreds Of
thousands Of dollars.
''This elevator takes the form Of an
entirely new species Of submarine craft,
but at present no more may be written
dbout it than that It is unlike any lift
ing apparatus ever designed before and
that it 5is strong enough to lift the heaBv.

ARE you merger or anti-merger?
This will determine the issues 1of the
coming state campaign. The candi-
dates for governor are lining up on this
proposition. No amount of ridicule
on the part of the railroad and merger
interests can blind intelligent people to
the fact that mergers are hostile to the
true interests of the public. Remember
that Judge Collins is the champion of
the people in opposing the mergers and
their selfish and injurious plans.

ELECTRICITYON BOARD SHIP
Eorty-Seven Varieties of Newell
Schemes on the New Baltic.

Forty-Seyen Varieties of Newell
Schemes on the New Baltic.
The new White Star linel; Baltic, now
being built at Glasgow, is to be equip
ped with at least forty-seven new elec-
trical ''wrink]es'' for her navigation
reducing the perils of the sea and for
preparing food. She will make her
first trip next summer.
One of the novelties is an electric
griddle cake and waffle range. The
automatic egg boilers, like those on the
Oceanic, are designed to cook 200 eggs
at once, a clock arrangement causing
the basket containing the eggs to hop
out Of the water at any half minute up
to six minutes.
Another novelty is self dumping
oyster cooker for stews. There are
electric oyster and toast ranges, coffee
! urns, self feeding tea and chocolate
urns. cereal boilers. ice breakers, but
! ter cutters. almond and cocoanut graf
| ers, ice cream fre2zers, -four sifters,
J bread mixers. egg beaters, vegetable
! cookers. plate warmers, butter cake
cooking boxes, dumping steamers ana
| pastry cookers. Each of the five elec
! trio coffee urns has a capacity of forty
gallons.
One of the most marvellous electrical
contrivances is that for preventing COL
lision. The moment another ship en-
! ters the "magnetic field" of the Baltic
the needle of the instrument points
toward the vessel that is approaching
or being overtaken. Even the rhythmic
beats of an unseen steamers screws
are registered by means Of the deli
cate apparatus
Another safeguard is an electric con-
trivance to show if the ships lights are
, burning properly.
! An electric log for ascertaining the
speed of the ship and an ELECTRIC lead
for ascertaining the depth of water are
also on the list. Another electric nov
city registers all signals, including
steam sirens, record that might prove
| of great value in trial of a maritime
case in court.
| Refngerating chambers are to be
chilled by electricity There will be ex-
ira electric steering apparatus, indie
pendent of steam, hand and hydraulic
appliances; electric devices for closing
bulkhead doors automatically, and the
most powerful electric searchlights,
