A Swimming Sail.
From The Cutters Book.


The following device have never heard
named though 1t might appropriately be
dubbed a swimming SAIL" At the end OF
a pole or rail. six inches thick. nail firmly
two uprights, four feet in length. and hav-
ing placed half dozen stout metal rings
on each upright. brace them by a cross
piece between the tops. In this rectangular
frame stretch q sail made Of canvas. or
equally strong fabric. by doubling the edges
and wiring them to the rings on the up
rights Tack the sail to the rail at the
bottom and hoist 1t by means of two cords,
one on each side, leading over a pulley. at
the top of each upright Now cut pair
Of twO-by- fours, five feet In lengths, and
nail one end of each to the middle Of each
upright in such a position that the oppO-
site ends meet at point on level with
the bottom of the sail. Brace them in this
position by means Of third strip running
from these two lower ends to the middle
- the rail. At the meeting point of the
~ Z strips attach a short bar or handle,
unrallel to the sail. To navigate your
craft push 1t out to depth Of three or
four feet In the water. hoist the sail by
means Of the two cords. leading back to the
bar within convenient reach and lying nat
in the water with the sail before you. grasp
the bar. In a fresh breeze. Of course, the
tendency Of the sail Is to flop over Toward.
but your weight behind will overcome that
inclination and you will have the novel
sensation OF being lowed along before the
wind by a craft in which you take the part
OF the boat. while your sail plunges and
lurches before you in a most exciting man
ner.

NEW YORK LEADS WORLD.
Surpasses Even London in Wealth and
Variety Of Business. .,

From Leslie's Weekly
New York, which ranks second among
the worlds cities in population. largely
surpasses London In wealth and In the
volume and variety Of its business activi-
ties. The United States passed England in
extent of manufactures in 1880. in iron and
steel production in 1895 and In coal output
in 1900. and its leadership in each Of these
fields Is rapidly frightening
New York city is the business capital Of
country which produces 20 per cent Of
the worlds wheat. % per cent Of its gold
33 per cent of it's coal. 35 per cent Of It's
manufactures. 40 per cent of its iron. ~
per cent of Its steel. 52 per cent OF its Pc
troleum. IS per cent Of its copper. 70 per
cent of its cotton and 80 per cent Of it's
corn.
The wealth of the United States In 1907
Is $11s.OOO. 100000. or as much as that Of its
two nearest rivals-Great Britain and
France-in the aggregate. AS the United
States natural resources are only in the
early stage Of their development. and as
Its supremacy over the rest Of its old-tme
rivals is steadily increasing. its social an6
business leadership in the world is assured.

Wealth Of the Anc..at Romans.

Some of the Romans seem to have been
very solid" while others were fast to
degree not known nowadays. When a
Caesar was killed on tine ides OF March.
Antony owed 81 100000. which he paid be-
fore the kalends Of April out of the public
money and squandered. according to
Adams. $2aOO0.OOO. Caesar himself, before
he set out for Spain. was in debt to the
extent of $10OOO.OOO. Lentulus possessed

Tiberius left at his death the enormous
sum OF $lOS, 084. $780, which Caligula Is said
to have squandered in single year

Emotions Told in Their Gowns.

From the New York Press.
Emotional gowns" which are being
turned out by a London dressmaker. must
be watched with great interest. This wom-
ans creations have been supposed to ex-
press. variously. sorrow. Joy. love or ha-
tired. Now she goes further and mingles
emotions and the hour OF the day. AT 0
o'clock. over morning condolences. pink
or blue robe may be worm" she says. "At
10. in Hyde Park. the mauve-hecked cotton
toilet or blue-striped wolfe Is correct. An
afternoon at Ascot permits tender note to
creep into the wardrobe. After the races
a dinner at one Of the leading restaurants
may be suggested. In that case a careful
choice OF gown must be made. The girl
who will say good-by for time must let
her brown chiffon robe sigh always re-
member across the table" Women who
bring home the idea OF having emotional
frocks made may become as much a terror
to dressmakers as are the artist husbands
who have a fond way OF designing their
wives dresses.

LONG WORTH MAY
 BE PUT FOR WARD
REPUBLICANS WANT MIR. ROOSE- VELT'S SoN-IN-LAW TO BECOME MAYOR OF THE BIG CITY OF GIN CINNATl.

Cincinnati, Ohio, Sptember 16.-(Special) Having put Congressman Burton for ward in Cleveland in an effort to wrest the office of mayor from Tom Johnson and the city administration from the demo- crats, there is now talk among the re- pnblicans of placing Congressman Nick Longworth in the field for mayor of Gin einnati in the hope of wrestling the muni- cpal government from the hands of the democrats of this city.
 While the suggestion was lightly re- garded when first advanced, the possible candidacy of Mr. Longworth is now re- eeivlng the careful consideration of poll- ticians of both parties. It is well known that he would prefer to remain in Con gross, but 1t is argued that the same influences that brought Burton into the arena at Cleveland could be used on Longworth here. Those who favor put ting him into the race use the argument that he would be able to reconcile the hostile factions and would go before the people with the prestige of having ire quently and always successfully appeared before the voters as candidate. It is also argued that his White House con neetions would be of assistance to hlm, as would the fact that he belongs to one of the oldest Cincinnati families and is a man of wealth as well as ability
 It Is generally recognized that the re- publicans will have to put their best foot forward in the approaching race if they are to oust the democrats. and in the opinion of many, Longworth is the most promising piece of republican material at hand.
