It is interesting to note how man has
borrowed many of his ideas from the
animal world. Wasps made paper from
wood long before man decided 1t was q
good substitute for rags. The 1oldlng
scissors and folding pocket compass are
only copies of the folding lower jaw of
the dragon fly. The flying squid, spe-
cies ut cuttlefisf. has n way of pro-
iecting itself as high as II feet above
the surface of the water by fOrcibly
expelling water from its body. Man
saw this and invented the skyrocket.
The rope making machines used in the
United States navy yards follows al
most the precise lines that spider
does when making his own frail cable.

BREAKS ALL THE RECORDS
Steamship Lusitania the Fast
est on the Atlantic.

New York, Oct 11.-Four days, 10
hours and 81 minutes out from
Queenstown, with every transatlantic
speed record in her possession, the
majestic Cunard liner Lusitania swept
by Sandy Hook lightship at LII a. m
and after pause off the bar to await
daylight steamed slowly up the har.
Dor to receive the recognition of her
right to the title Of queen Of the sea.
Three records were written down in
her log book, two of them wrested
from her great German rivals and one
from the swift Lucania Of her own
line.
The records which she has broken
were that held by Kaiser Wilhelm II.
of the North German Lloyd line, which
crossed from New York to Plymouth
at an average speed of 1888 knots, as
compared with the Lusitania's 23.99;
that held by the Hamburg-American
liner Deutschland Of days, II hours
and 81 minutes from Cherbourg to
New York; that held by the Cunard
liner Lucania, which crossed from
Queenstown to New York in days, 7
hours and 20 minutes. Besides the
Lusitania has broken her own record
of days and "a minutes made on her
maiden trip from Queenstown.
The Lusitania in her daily runs ex-
ceeded on two days the record of COL
knots previously held by the Deutsch-
land

HUNDREDS IN DANGER.
Big Fire at New York City ImperiIs
Lives of Many,


Lives of Many.
New York, Oct. 10.-Hundreds Of
lives were endangered, thousands OF
persons We're thrown into panic, 125
electric cars were destroyed and prop
erty loss to the extent of 100000 was
caused by fire in the Fourteenth
street car barns AS a result of the
burning of the cars service on all the
cross town lines was greatly ham,
pered.
The fire had gained great Roadway
before it was discovered and when the
firemen arrived the walls separating
the big structure from adjoining tene-
ment houses were smoking hot In.
stantly the word was given to clear
the tenements and the occupants
poured into the streets in panic.
From that time on the police were as
busy attempting to control the fren-
zied hundreds, most of whom were
foreigners, as the firemen were in
fighting the blaze, which was gaining
Roadway with startling rapidity. 1t
was not until several priests, all at
tired in their robes, appeared and
walked through the surging crowd i'm
ploring the people to calm themselves
that anything like order was restored.
