Is not there enough excitement for

ing for more strenuous pastime is lie
going to explore the bottom of the
ocean? There is something up. A re-
cent order of the secretary OF the navy
to the commandant of the Brooklyn
navy yard to send the submarine boat
Plunger to Oyster Bay as soon as POS
sible has caused curiosity and excite
ment in naval circles Is the president
going to take plunge in the Plunger
is the question On every ones lips A
New York dispatch says:
'rne genera, impression is that MI.
Roosevelt would like very much 10
take a trip in submarine IL ne Wele

1Uav what this crack boat can 90
Three years ago he went to Annapols
fulIv cxpecting to go down iii the Hoi-

;,v certain members Of the cabinet VINO
had accom- panied him. On this partlc-
ular occasion the president Is reported

The Plunger was in dry dock when
the order was -eceived. She was i'm
mediately bastled out and gangs of
workings of all classes put to work on
her working night and day, putting
aer m thorough condition. The BOAT
will not be ready to sail until about
Monday next.
Lieutenant Nelson is in command OF
the Plunger. He will be accompanied
to Oyster Bay by Lieutenant Shapelv,
of the submarine boat Porpoise. Both
these officers say they would be glad
if the president would take dive with
them, but they fear they will have no
such luck. They certainly will not ii
the public can have it's way. If it is
found out that 1t is Mr.. Roosevelt's in
tertion to do So there will be such a
protest from one end of the country to
the other as no president has ever
heard regarding a contemplated &C
ton.
Mr.. Roosevelt may say he is not will
ing to send any man Of the navy
where he is not willing to go. That
would be all right if he were only Mr.
Roosevelt, a simple American citizen;
but as president of the United Sta;es
he has no right TO put his life in jeop-
ardy uselessly. The people have an
interest in his life and it is his duty TO
preserve it for them as far as lays il
his power. After his term of office eX-
pires he can go down to the bottom

cuted the deed, and then he certified
that his wife, separate and apart from
himself, appeared before himself and
stated that she executed the deed with
out fear of her husband"
That looked like what might be
termed in dog Latin a sokdolager, and
Mr.. Parker looked triumphant Mr..
Adams did not seem disturbed, how
ever, and told his tale:
