Savannah, Ga, Sept. lin an
effort to remain under water for
record time, Joseph Briskey, right
fielder Of the Savannah team of the
South Atlantic League, died on
Typee beach this afternoon in
sight of hundreds of bathers who
were UNCONSCIOUS of the tragedy
being enacted.
Briskey's body, lying on the
sand beneath the water. was vlsl-
BILE, and bathers thought his death
agony was only bit of fun on his
part. Finally BriskeY became still
and the alarmed bathers drew him
up to find him dead. 1t was found
that in diving his neck had been
partially dislocated. BriskeY's
dark hair was found to have turned
white during the time he was IN
the water. He must have known
his fate and his suffering caused
this change.

insects and caora.

The ordinary perfumes Of every
day life have a distinct use in the
destruction OF microbes, and this is
especially the case with some Of the
essential oils which arc used in
cooking and in medicine. CHINA
mon, which is so universally used
for f@layoring, will kill some mi
crobes within o quarter of an hour,
and it has long been reputed as ad-
vantageous in the destruction Of the
bacillus Of typhoid while still out of
the body, perhaps a very different
thing from the bacillus when it is
inside u anatomy. Gloves, too,
can destroy some specimens of bac-
terra in rather more than half an
hour, and the common wild verbena
has q similar action in about three
quarters of an hour, while geranium
flowers have q similar action, ttheaghh
it takes rather longer to develop it.

stoneo In Queer PLacso.

A round stone is found in the
joints Of certain kinds Of bamboo.
This is called "Stabasheer' and is
supposed to be deposited from the
siliceous juices of the cane. Anoth-
.er curiosity Of this sort is the SEQ
coanut stone" found in the n
dosperm Of the cocoanut in Java
and other East Indian islands. It is
O pure carbonate. Of lime, and the
form Of the stone is sometimes
round, sometimes pear shaped,
while the appearance is that Of q
white pearl without much luster.
Some Of these stones are as large
as cherries and as hard as feldspar
or opal. They are very rarely found
and are regarded as precious stones
BY the oriental5 and as charms
against disease. orleyil spirits by the
natives. Stones Of this kind are
also found in the p~omegranate and
in other East, Indian fruits. Apa-
tite has also been discovered in teak
wood.

Home Comforts

The city's pioneer plumber and
filter. Louis Shonbrun. has been
busy this fall and winter installing
heating and water plants in Miller
houses. This is practically a new in
dnstry in the city, and it is said, is
attracting others to also engage in
it. A few years ago a heating plant
would have been a curiosity in this
mans town. but today it is becoming
common. AS soon as much needed
sewer connections can be extended
to other streets, heating and water
plants in Miller houses will be very
general. These things add pleasure
and comfort to the home, for the
whole family, and should be encour-
aged and adopted in every home
that can have them.
Speaking of home comforts brings
to mind a principle the PRESS has al
ways been a stickler for, briefly
contained in this sentence: No man
with family obligations should spend
a dollar exclusively upon himself, or
for his own pleasure or selfshness,
until after his family and home have
the reasonable comforts Of life.
Then If he burns his surplus, why
that's his affair.
