simplified SPELLING.

With an army of $4,000 supporters
who have signified their belief in the
simplified spelling idea, with 100
magazines and newspapers already u.s.
ing the shorter forms, and with 1870
other publications ready to begin to
spell in the space-saving way, the
Simplified Spelling Board is planning
for this year a very active campaign
to secure the adoption of its idea. IN
the first two months of this year $50
important business men have Joined
the movement. A campaign among
college and university professors in
two months has added 600 names to
this class of supporters. AS a result,
.simplified spelling is now endorsed by
$500 educators in the institutions of
higher education in this country The
next campaign will be to interest the
faculties and pupils Of the great
normal schools. Already there are
5000 teachers who have signed the
adhesion card, while simplified spelling
is being taught or authorized in the
state normal schools Of Colorado
Illinois, Iowa, Minnesota, Pennsyl.

and in the public schools Of Washing.

A simplified spelling convention will
be held in April in New York City, at

campaign will probably be formulated.
The simpiifed spelling idea continues
TO make friends. and its supporters
are more sanguine tina ever Of it's
ultimate success.

FLEET HlAWATHA.
"A Cynical Critics Gold Analysis Of
Lonafellow's Description.

LongfelloW's Description.
Determine how fast, asks Professor
Greenhiil, Hiawatha can run from the
following data: II
Strong OF arm was Hiawatha.
He could shoot>te arrows upward,
And the tenth had left the bowstring
Ere the first to earth had fallen.
Swift OF foot was Hiawatha. 81
He could shoot an arrow from him
And run forward with such swiftness
That the arrow fell behind him.
Neglecting the resistance Of the air
and granting that Hiawatha could
shoot one, arrow second, the solution
is as follows:
The time Of fight Of the arrows shot
upward must have been nine seconds
Therefore the velocity with which they
were shot, being equal to the time null
hplied into half the value of the con-
slant Of gravity, was IA feet q second.
Now, In shooting an arrow from him,
Hawatha, to obtain the farthest flight,
would let fy at an angle Of forty-five
degrees, and by a simple trigonomet-
ncal calculation we therefore arrive at
the fact that the horizontal velocity Of
the arrow would be rather less than LA
feet a second and would in fact be 1O2
feet second, or seventy miles an hour.
HiaWatha would therefore have to run
faster than this. Gould he do It on "a
sprint? s$5 NJ,
Again having recourse to calculation,
we find that an arrow shot at IA feet
second would hy 216 yards, or near
" a furlong. Hiawatha would run
that distance In about seven seconds,
so that he would be able to give the
present holder Of the record some 145
yards start. London Post

The: DAKOTA
1T Is BELIEVED THE VESSEL
WILL BE FLoATED AND BE %
SAVED FROM WRECK.

Seattle, Wash, March 9.-The Great
Northern steamship Dakota, which
went ashore in the bay of Toxic, is to
be rescued from her present perilous
position as quickly as possible and
every effort will be made to have her
placed in service again without undue
delay. Heavy seas have prevailed in
the vicinity of the boat since she
struck, and it has been impossible for
the salvage boats to do anything with
the cargo.
The bow of the steamer is resting
on the ground with the water up to
the second mast The boat is of
strong build, and despite the terrific
pounding which she has suffered in
the heavy swells she should be able
to stand it for some time. The bonn
bardment of the waves may cause the
boat to shift from the rock which holds
up her stern, in which event she may
settle to the bottom. While she lies
about a mile from the shore, the water
is not so deep, as is evidenced by the
fact that her bow is now touching bot
tom. and total immersion of the
hull would still leave her stacks and
masts above water.
If the boat should slip from the rock
which holds up her stern it would be
much better for her, as she would be
relieved from the pounding which she
B is subject to in her present position.
Wrecking outfits have been sent to
the Dakota from various points, and as
soon as the sea let's up a little they
are expected to start the job Of right
ing her. The cargo first will be taken
out of the hold, and the job Of lifting
her should be easy after that, if the
numerous watertight compartments
Il are intact.
After the Dakota has been raised
she will be taken to some dry dock in
Japan. 1t is not expected that the
damage to her hull has been great,
and possibly the main thing to be at
tended to will be Strengthening the
strain of some Of her plates and beams
and repairing the. damage caused by
running on the rock. In dry dock the
boat will be overhauled thoroughly,
and she will be made as seaworthy
and spick and span in appearance
again as the twin ship Minnesota.
No big craft is abandoned in these
days unless she is an absolute wreck
or has sunk ito great depth, making
it Impossible to perform diving opera
tions. Some notable and recent ex-
amples Of the successful rescue Of big
boats are those Of the raising Of the
Spanish and Russian warships after
they had been sunk by the fire Of the
enemy.
As Yokohama dispatch of the 9th
z inst. says: The position of the wreck
of the Great Northern liner Dakota.
which ran ashore March 8 of the Mo-
jima lighthouse, forty miles from To
kio is reported to be unchanged to-
day It is possible to approach her
only in open boats, which makes it
useless to attempt salvage operations.
a strong west wind is blowing and the
vessel is exposed Ito both winds and
waves, which apparently must soon
result in her total abandonment.
The passengers of the Dakota to-
day adopted a resolution thanking the
