SHARKS IN TORPEDO WORK.
Suggestion That the Great Fish Be
Utilized in the Naval Service.

All sorts of queer devices are Of
fersd the army board of ordnance and
fortihcations as engines of destruc-
tion. One of the strangest sugges-
tions of this kind yet presented TO the
consideration OF the board contem-
plates the use of large fish, prefer
ably sharks. for the propulsion of sub
marine torpedoes. According 10 the
plan prol )sed a shark is to be in-
prisoned in tube at the rear end of
the projectile, and is 10 be controlled
in its movements by the active appli-
cation of wireless telegraphy.
In case the shark became restless
and attempted TO swim away on his
own account il was to be given an
on its course until the torpedo had
reached its target. Another remark
ably ingenious proposition emanated
from the same fertile brain. and con-
templated the employment of war
balloons in any desired direction. In
this case also the birds, harnessed
to the aerial vehicles, were to be con-
trolled in their movements by a sys-
tenn of wireless telegraphy These
balloons were to be provided with
torpedoes. or bombs, which could be
dropped at any desired point by the
use of wireless telegraphy.

Proper Treatment Of Pneumonia.

Pneumonia Is too dangerous a dis
ease for any one to attempt to doctor
himself. although he may have the
proper remedies at hand. A physician
should always be called. 1t should be
borne In mind, however, that pneu-
monia always results from . cold or
from an attack Of the grip. and that
by giving Chamberlain's Cough Rene
dy the threatened attack Of pneumonia
may be warded OF. The remedy IL
also used by physicians In the treat
ment Of pneumonia with best results.

DELEGATES EXHAUSTED.
Worn Out by Constant Excitement and
Loss of Sleep.

l[Oco VI
ST. LOUIS, July 10.-Very few of the
delegates to the Democratic National
Convention left the city on the early
morning trains to-day. The unf1agging
interest that had spurred them through
the long hours OF the convention per-
mitted them to obtain but little sleep
after its adjournment and the hotel
corridors were crowded with groups of
Eeavy-eyed and apparently thoroughly
exhausted politicians. The events of
the past four days formed the chief
topic of conversation. All who had sat
through the weary sessions declared
that the convention just closed was one
of the greatest assemblages in the po-
litical history of this country and from
the standpoint of physical endurance
was certainly one of the most exhaust
ing. Many of the delegates decided to
enjoy some recreation and street cars
To suburban amusement parks were
crowded during the late hours of the
day.
Many visited the Worlds Fair. as by
special permission they were admitted
on Sunday, but the early hours of the
evening found the politicians again
clustered in the hotel corridors and the
topic Of conversation seemed, by gen
eral consent. to change to statements
concerning individual physical discom-
forts and the amount of sleep necessary
to restore them to a normal condition
Then followed a general exodus and
the Union station tonight was crowded
with departing delegates.

CROWDS CHEER DAVIS.
Home Coming OF Nominee for Vice
President Marked by Enthusiasm.

ELKINS, w. Va, July 10.-Two
thousand persons had gathered at the
West Virginia Central and Pittsburg
Railroad station here to-day to greet
former Senator Henry G. Davis. who
arrived on his special car from the
convention at ST. Louis at L o'clock
this afternoon. When the train pulled
in at the station the music of the
Elkins band, which headed the throng,
was drowned by the shout that went
UP when the Democratic candidate for
Vice President appeared on the plat
form of his car. At Belington, in
Barbour County, at least 100 men, in
Guiding the Belington band, had
boarded the train to which ex-senator
Davis car WaS-attached and their
shouts joined those of the crowd at
the station. T. w. Daley and Senator
Elkins each delivered an address of
congratulation, to which the eX-Sena-
tor responded, voicing his appreciation
of the honor that the convention had
conferred upon him and commenting
upon the fact that in his home town
at least the demonstration that mark
ed his Homecoming furnished evidence
that party lines had been lost sight of.
He spoke from the rear platform OF
his car and his words were wildly
cheered.
Hundreds of those in the throng
marched to the music of the band to
the Davis home as an escort. At his
home which is on a commanding hill
west of the town. Davis slept most of
the afternoon. He felt much weari-
ness as the result of his work at the
convention. He had received the news
of his nomination through a telegram
that was handed to him when his train
