The First Bathing Machine.

There does not seem to be much
doubt that the first bathing machine
was seen at Margate and that it was
the invention Of q worthy Quaker
named Beale, who placed his hopeful
invention on the Margate beach in
100. '"The public are obliged to Ben
jamin Beale, one of the people called
Quakers, for the invention writes the
author of "a Short Description of the
Isle of Thanet,' published in 1876.
But it was the old story, the public be-
came grateful after the inventor had
been ruined by his enterprise His
successors had reaped the harvest.
Old Benjamin Beale's widow could re-
member in her last days the first fam
lily that ever resorted to Margate for
the purpose of bathing being carried
into the sea in covered cart. In 1903
Beale's machines were one of the in
situations of Margate. 1t was alarm
ingly claimed for them that they may
be driven to any depth into the sea by
careful guides. IT. P.'s London Week

This Was In 1924.

English opinion Of the United States
in 1924, from the standpoint of the
fashionable London set, is shown in
the extract from the correspondent of
John Whishaw:
you must have read some time
since in the papers of a few young
'fashionables,' Mr. Stanley Oord Der
by's grandson, Messrs. Wortley and
DenisOn, ministerial members, and La
bouchere, a nephew Of Mr.. Barring,
having sailed for New York with the
intention of making a tour of the
United States. The scheme was
thought very wild and much disap-
proved of by the west end of the
town, and disappointment and disgust
were universally predicted

superxtitions of Fishermen.

English herring fishermen are, many
of them, remarkably superstitious. For
instance, on some fishing boats whis-
Ting is forbidden, and neither milk
nor burned bread is allowed on board.
Furthermore, not even the name of
that unlucky animal, the hare, may be
mentioned, and common method OF
Furnishing an enemy is to throw dead
hare into his boat Some of the fisher
men believe in luck attending an odd

In the early days of Leadville there
was singular character living by
the name of Major Martin McGinnis
The major was the important man of
the camp, and when any distinguished
parties came to the city they were
received by Major Martin McGinnis and
presented with the freedom of the
camp on gold plate. The French
government sent three mining engi-
.neerS over to examine and to report
upon the mineral deposits of this To-
caiity. They were received by Major
Martin McGinnis, who put them in car
rlageS and took them around the camp.
AS they were going up California
gulch the Frenchmen suddenly jumped
out of the carriage and commenced
to hammer and chisel upon large
black bOwlder that lay alongside the
road. The major watched them ges-
tlculating to one another, and he final
ly said to the interpreter: what do
they mean? What are they talking
about?" The interpreter said, They
say that rock don't belong here" The
major said: The deuce it don't! You
say to those foreigners that l went
stand for them coming over here and
running down our. country. Tell them
that they can find anything anywhere
in Colorado
The Frenchmen were right. however,

TO play any of their exhibition games
and the ones that have been played
were pulled off in such weather that
1t was impossible to get out the
crowds.
The Lime Burners have thus far
been unable to play a game although
the team has been on the road for a
week. The only satisfaction there
can be for the management is that
The other teams of the league are
getting no more practice than Marion
and all will therefore start the season
on equal terms unless there Is a de-
cided change in the weather.
Manager Drumm is thoroughly dis
gusted with the hard luck he has met
with since leaving this city a week
ago today. He hoped to be able
to play at both Toledo and Canton,
the receipts of the two places would
have been sufficient to pay practic-
ally the entire expenses of the trip
had the weather been favorable.
If Drumm experiences much more
bad weather, it is probable that he
will pack up and come back to this
city to finish the training season
with his squad. The team could
practice here practically every day,
which is more. than they have been
able to do on the trip.

fore the season opens. Big Bill

Stctlcr secured from Ferd Drumm,
is expected to arrive today.
