Portsmouth. England. Oct. 1s.-The crew of sixteen on board submarine boat No. { had a remarkably narrow escape this evening.
 The boat was engaged in diving practice off Spit-Head and was sub merged, when water leaked through the exhaust pipe and caused an accumula- tion of gas. A slight explosion fol lowed damaging the machinery. The crew, however. managed to raise the vessel, which came up stern first. A govefnment gun boat nearby went to her assistance and saved all the crew.

Given Lien on eravestones.

Among the many remarkable acts
of the Maine Legislature. recently ad.
iourned, was the passage of a law es,
tablishing a lien on gravestones, by
which the marble worker may, within
two years from the erection of the
stone, take possession of the memo
rial in satisfaction OF any sum that
may at that time remain unpaid. When
the law was under consideration in
the legislature it attracted very little
attention, but now that it has been
passed there has arisen a great storm
of protest. The law is denounced as
rghoulish," and the legislature and
tombstone makers t being roundly
abused for their utter lack of decency
In thus opening a legal way to the In
vasion of the sacred precincts of the
dead. But it is the law and Maine
people who wish to rest easy in their
graves must now make sure before
death that the tombstone maker will
be paid in full.

Items that Count.

There is one important fact that
should be indelibly fixed in the mind
of every thinking, reasoning being,
and that is that any physical derange-
ment. no matter how slight, leaves its
impress on the system, and that the
individual can never be exactly the
same as before. We know this is con-
trary to the opinion generally held, for
we frequently hear the remark made
concerning one who has recently
passed through a slight sickness:
oThe doctor says he is as sound as a
hell now!" This is optimism, pure
and simple, on the part of the phys
ician. and it does good by establishing
confidence in the mind of the whtlom
patient; but, m reality, t is not so.
No disturbance Of the normal course
of the functions can pass away and
leave things exactly as they We're. A
permanent damage has been inflicted,
and although it is not appreciated at
the time. Nature is a rigid ~bookkeeper,
and these apparently trifling debts to
her are duly entered against the indi'
vidual. and you may rely upon it that
sooner or later the bill win be pre-
scented. 1t is the sum total of these
minor injuries that become formida'
ble-the accumulation of these trif'
ling arrangements that break down
constitutions ultimately.

rigid material are secured by hinges
of special design. These wings are
secured to the foot by means of straps.
As the swimmer makes a p~ropelling
kick or thrust of the foot the wings
open to their fullest extent, thereby
presenting a maximum area to and
consequently affording a correspond
ing increase in the efficiency Of the
stroke. AS soon as the swimmers
legs are drawn toward the body, pre-
paratory for another stroke, the wings
of the device meeting the resistance
of the water naturally close as far as
the straps provided for the purpose
will permit them. BY combining ex.
IRENE lightness and compactness with
durability the inventors believe they
have discovered a device that will
greatly facilitate the speed it is pos
sible for a swimmer to obtain.

GIRAFFE OF RARE SPECIES.

Valuable Acquisition to London Zoo
logical Gardens.
A young giraffe of a rare species,
the first of its kind ever brought to
Europe, was recently landed at Ply
mouth from the West African mail
steamer Akabo. The animal, which is
the property of Capt. Phillips, the
British resident at Katagum, North
ern Nigeria, is fourteen months old,
stands nine feet high, and is said to
be worth $4,000. 1t is being taken to
the London Geological Gardens. The
giraffe is a curiosity because of the
character of its horns and the shape
Of the spots on it's skin. Capt. Phil
lips captured his prize in a region
where some of the natives had never
before seen a white man. Great diff
Guilty was experienced in getting the
animal down to the coast for ship
ment to England. 1t had to be walked
the first 500 miles to Zungeru. Then,
for the next 140 miles the poor crea-
ture had to stand in a narrow canoe,
on which it was conveyed to the
Niger. Placed upon a small steamer
it was next carried to Burktu, a dis
lance of about 1000 miles from the
starting point of the journey. A spe
cially-constructed box was placed on
the liner for the animals accommo
dation, and several times during the
sea voyage it was taken out on deck
for exercise. The animal, which has
been named the Amelia" bore heI
trying experience remarkably well.

THE WRONG WAY TO WALK
'neleeant and Slovenly Gait Noticed All Too
Frequently.

Walking-one Of the most popular
ana beneficial exercises-is well dis.
cussed in Good Housekeeping:
very stout or slouchy people allow
the abdomen to lead" Brain work.
ers, Worriers, all nervous and physf-
caily uneultivated people, let their
heads lead; the head is further adj
Vanced than any other part of the per-
son. D~yspeptics whose thoughts are
centered on their stomachs, often. nm.
consciously lead with the waist line
Just over the offending riga oc-
caslonaily a weak-willed person per-
mus the knees to lead. When a thin.
Dad walker moves rapidly, there often
seems to be a race between nose and
knees, and you watch to see which
VIII arrive at the goal first.
When a young woman's skirt and a
young mans trousers show a bullying
shape over the knees, their owners
are leading ~sedentary lives or have
never learned to walk correctly. This
part of the lower limbs should be kent
straight, and the ball Of the foot. not
the heel, should touch the ground
hrst. When the head is bent for long
hours over sewing machine or ledger
or onion bed, 1t is not an easy matter
10 pull it back to its proper position
n make it stay there, and it seems
SO much more easy and comfortable
to let the chest sink than to hold il
up 10 it's right place; but the demands
OF health and beauty are identical il
the matter of a head held easily, no
realistically, back, and a chest KEEP
In the highest and most advanced
position.
1t is a striking tact that this att
tude of head and cnest is expressive
. not only of health and grace, but 0
the finer mental qualities. The en-
barrassed boy drops his head; if h
would hold his head up, his nervou:
ness would disappear. The shy gil
thinks that every one in the room !
(. looking at her, and her chest sinks
! but if she would hold it up-assum
: the attitude OF courage, though sh
: have 1t not-she wouldn't care whetl
: er they looked or not. The self-col
scious person who knows he is sti
I and awkward, and who knows thu
: his stiffness and awkwardness are tn
!, direct results Of his s~elf-eonsciou
: ness. should imagine that a stron
: string is attached to the upper pa
:, of his chest and held by an invisibI
hand above him. All he has to do
. to let his body depend from tn;
string and keep his head well back
! it, and his mind and body will aliE
- become easy and free, The mo
graceful walker I ever knew told n
: that she habitually walked by the a
: of this invisible cord.
