AN INVINOIBLE BOAT

Inventor of the submarine engine Of
war, John Holland, has severed his con-
nections with the steel trust, and is now
arranging for a visit to Japan, to be
present at the testing of a new model
of submarine that he recently built for
the japanese Government, and which
| lie claims will revofutionize submarine
warfare. He has received a letter from
the japanese Embasy urging him to per-
sonally supervise the trial that will take
place in the japanese waters very short
IL. The letter declares that not only do
the highest naval authorities desire him
to be present, but the Mikado himself
has expressed a wish that he be invited.
The new submarines are already in
Japan, and word was received d few
days ago that they have all been as
sembled and that a preliminary test,
which they have stood, to the satisfaction
of all concerned, has been made. An
American recommended by Mr.. Holland
is in charge of the boats and is training
the Japanese officers in their manage
ment It is on these boats that Japan
has pinned her faith to strike a decisive
blow againststhe Russians, and it is de-

before terrible battle under water be-
tween boats Of the Russian and japanese
nayies will be fought. The fight viii be
conducted on the Japanese. side by the
American prodigy Of invention Holland.
Mr.. Holland has declared that there
can be no doubt as to the outcome of
such conflict, as the Japanese boats
are far superior in every respect to the
submarines that the Russians have built.
Russia is equipped with the latest
models of submarine built on Holland
patents, which are constructed by the
ship-building trust. So far as has been
known to the scientific world, these
boats contain all Of the improvements
Which the great inventor has been able
to devise.
The existence of the boats which Japan
has secured is known to but few per-
sons outside of the japanese authorities.

The old man crouched among his pill

give his consent, and then he would lose

A Warranted British Criticism of Gu,
TendencY to HWhnnn


Tendency to "Whoop.U
National idiosyncrasies are reflected
not only In serious pursuits, but in ma
tional games, says the Philadelphia
Ledger. Baseball is not likely to be-
come an international sport In which
there is any real rivalry, unless the
nations become endowed with Ameri-
can zest in the rapid game. The Lon
don Outlook regrets that Britons and
Americans cannot play baseball on
something like equal terms and comes
to the conclusion that the American
conception of sport is hopelessly an
tagonistic to the British at every point.
Englishmen take their pleasures rather
tardy, but the Outlook is not alto
gether astray when it arraigns the
American ball game as extensively
noisy. 1t generously admits that base
ball is "a really fine game" in essence.
but the fielders are allowed ito yell at
the man with the club in order to rat
tie him." the spectators are permitted
to make "a diabolical din" for the same
reason; the umpire's decisions, instead
Of being submitted to without MUIR
muir, as Englishmen receive a deliver
ance from the lord high chancellor,
are appealed from "by circle Of yell
Ing, gesticulating forms clad like aero
bats"
1t must be confessed that there ia
|rmuch force in the arraignment. Noise
has become an inseparable incident Of
our national game and it may as well
be confessed that public interest In
the sport would lapse at once If pro-
ceedings were conducted in a perfect
ly tranquil, self-composed and ladylike
manner.
Seriously speaking, the outcry Of
our British contemporary against mere
noise as a public grievance deserves
some attention. Noise is easily mis-.
interpreted as a sign Of vigorous en-.
terprise In all lines of human activity.
There is hustle Of trade which no
one could suppress. The loudest shout
er is not by any means the most ac-
complished and effective orator. The
best work may be done without great
clamor and uproar. Noise is common
ly associated with the faker, who COW
ers the pinchbeck quality of his wares
by stridently proclaiming their virtues.
Much Of the noise of the city street is
entirely unnecessary and could be sup
pressed without injury to any material
interest.
A society for the prevention Of din
would find a fertile field for its beneh-
cent offices. Some years ago the So
ciety for the Prevention OF Cruelty to
Animals in Munich issued an order
forbidding the superhuous cracking OF
whips, In order to save the nerves of
horses. Humanity deserves similar
consideration. Happily, the tendency
of civilization is toward the suppress
sion of superfiuous noise In the bust
est quarters Of some cities wooden
pavements have been laid to quiet tc
some extent the legitimate noise OF
trafic. The "still alarm" is a far more
effective agency for the extinction O,

CHAPTER XXIY.

When the harvest was over and the
grain was ingathered, and the work of
the year completed, George began to
make his arrangements. He had receiv-
ed the formal notice and a six months
grace In which to find the money. There
was no longer any doubt possible that
he must leave Sidcote. He had now
made 1t all out in his own mind. There
would be enough money from the harvest
to pay the half-years' interest; the land
would be foreclosed And the sale of his
farm implements, furniture and every
thing would leave him with a few hun
dred to begin the world again. He would
go to Tasmania, where man might buy
q small farm and live upon the fruit OF
his own labor.
''Let u.s." said Mary, make one last
appeal to my uncle. We will go togeth-
or, George. Perhaps he may relent even
at the last"
They made that appeal at an uafsr-
tunate time. To begin with, 1t was in the
morning, when David was still with his
uncle; and In the second place, 1t was
a morning when David had been abusing
his position. The redemption value of
the coupons, in fact, was at preposter-
GUS figure, and the poor old man, torn by
the desire to get back his property and
By rage at the terrible ransom imposed

When they opened the door they found
the old man trembling and shaking with
the passions Of impotence and rage. His
face, livid and distorted, with haggard
eyes, was turned upward In an agony of
entreaty, to meet David's. There was
no passion In that fact, nor any emotion
except a calm and sober satisfaction,
which might even have been holy graft
