 Of the minority stock present. forty eight shares. owned by Henry B. Gray, were represented by Phares Coleman; seven, owned by Judah T. Moses, were represented by s. H.

 During the meeting. claim was put in by MT. Coleman. In behalf of Mir Gray, for the right of the latter to vote 122 shares of stock secured by him from the Milner estate. It seems that these shares have never been properly recorded on the stock books of the company. The claim of MT. Coleman, therefore, was not allowed.

EACH VILLAGE A VENICE.
Strange Relic of Ancient Customs
Prevailing in n German
Forest.

One of the most interesting regions
In the "old fatherland" is the so-called
"Spreewald," the Forset of the Spree,
situated not far from the German cap
ital, in the province Of Brandenburg,
says the Technical World. Each viii
lage is little Venice, every house
little island, and these islets are con-
nected by bridges sufficiently raised to
allow boats to pass under them.
Most of the houses, with their barns
and stables, rest on piles, and there is
generally a strip of artificial terra
firma either in front or at the rear of
every building. BY means of these
land strips and of the bridges the slen-
der land communication is kept
throughout the district, but most of
the business and amusement Is carried
on through the canals, which not only
form the main highways but penetrate
and cross and recross the whole re-
gion.
1t is on these .agoons that all traffic

STUDYING WATER POWER.
The French Government Is Anxious
to Assist Industrial De
velopment.

The French government is pursuing
a course which promises to result in
great benefit to the manufacturers Of
that nation, by surveying the rivers
and streams of the country in order
10 determine their capacity for gen
Grating power for the service OF FAC
tories, reports the New York Tribune.
Industrial men in the United States
have made many serious mistakes in
the past by developing water power
for factories, only to find that lack of
water at certain periods of the year
compelled discouraging and costly
shutdowns or the installation of re-
serve steam power plants. France
does not purpose to have her manu-
facturers make such mistakes as these
in the future, and has begun the work
of classifying and controlling her
streams. In the United States hydraul-
ic enterprises have been limited to
great streams and executed mainly by
private enterprise. The United States
has never attempted a scientific exam
ination of its resources with view TO
enabling towns and villages on streams
of minor consequence to put to profit
the power now lost. This is what
France now proposes to do.
In France the rivers susceptible of
being controlled with a view to in
dustrial utilization are numerous.

COMPASS OF LITTLE USE.
The Instrument on Submarine Boat
Ceases to Point North
Under Water.

Talking with young naval officer,
learned something about submarine
boats that astonished me, says Brook
one of the Holland craft several times
and made light of the dangers, but he
ridiculed the value of such vessels for
warfare. Then he told me the strange,
ineXplicable fact that after the boar
is entirely submerged the compass
ceases TO point to the north. 1t flies
around any old way and cannot be re-
lied upon for steering. Even when the
water is clear and still the man at the
lookout cannot see more than 20 feet
in front of the bow.
Rough water on the surface has the
effect Of giving an opaqueness to the
sea underneath-the opposite of the
DRY. The approach of a submarine can
be detected by the masthead that stands
out of the water. The vessel rarely de-
sends more than ten or twelve feet
below the surface. The general suppo-
sition that the boat founders about in
the mud is erroneous.
But the impossibility of steering by
compass destroys the practicability of
this weapon for actual warfare. In an
engagement the submarine would be as
likely to torpedo friend as enemy. All
manner of strange currents exist under
the surface of the sea, and as they have
the boat wholly in their grasp she
might be turned entirely around in a
80. H.. Al.
expert men in the navy are frying to
divise means to overcome the effect CT
