President ASKS
FIRST Class NAVY
ADDRESSES NOTABLE CONFER
ENcE ON NEW AMERICAN
BATTLEsHIPs.
Wants Best In World-Mr. Roosevelts
Yacht Mayfiower Runs Down Lum-
Der Schooner and Saves Crew on
Way to Newport.

Newport. r. l., July 23.-Pleadlng
for popular support for a "hrst-class
fighting navy" navy capable OF seek
ing out the enemy and "hammering
him into quits" President Roosevelt
was the central figure here Wednes-
day in the most notable conference OF
American naval officers ever called to-
gether to consult and discuss, In
broad, general way, the future United
States battleships.
The president spoke publicly for
more than half an hour, and then the
conference went into executive ses-
sion for one hour. During this session
the president took a leading part in
the discussion He argued as a lay
man, he explained, and did not attempt
to give advice to professional men. He
impressed upon the officers, however,
that It was given to them TO keep the
American navy abreast OF the times
and to make It the hard-hitting, eff
cient fighting force which he believes
to be a guarantee against the posi-
biity OF war. Mr. Roosevelt charac-
terized the navy as the cheapest form
of safety insurance policy the nation
can obtain. The president sailed for
Oyster Bay in the afternoon, but the
battleship conference will continue
here and in Washington until definite
plans for the ships to be laid down
in the near future are decided upon.
Mayflower Cuts Down Schooner.
When the trim little cruiser yacht
Mayfower, flying the presidents
white crested flag Of blue at the main
truck, steamed into the harbor
Wednesday morning nearly two hours
behind schedule time, with her how
spirit missing. one anchor gone, bow
plates dented and six strange figures
in black oilskins and sou'westers gath
cred in the bow, she brought the story
of an adventurous nights run in the
blacklist fog of the summer and of a
collision In which the lumber-laden
schooner Menawa was cut practically
in two by the presidents yacht.
A lifeboat lowered from the May
flower picked up the crew of six men
on the sinking boat They were taken
on board and when the Mayfiower ar
rived here the president, who knew
nothing Of the accident until he arose
in the morning, directed that they be
given sufficient money to take them
to their homes in Maine, and that the
master of the schooner, Skipper Hutch
inson, be provided with transportation
to the office of his agents In New
York.
Many at the Conference.
Assistant Secretary OF the Navy
Newberry attended the conference, as
did Gen. Horace Porter. president OF
the Navy league and chairman OF the
visitors to the Naval Academy. The
conference included no less than ten
rear admirals of the navy and host of
officers from the grade Of captain and
below. Army officers from Fort
Adams and Fort Greble also were in
vited To the conference. The officers
applauded the presidents aggressive
naval address almost continuously.
The president spent the entire time
he was here upon the naval island.

x.Ray Snap Shots.

While So-called instantaneous radio
graphs were made some years ago by
several workers, says the London Lam
Get, it was not until quite recently that
the method has been so far perfected
that it could be adopted as a regular
procedure, and it is chiefly due to DR..
Graedel, Of Nauheim. that it has been
brought within the sphere of everyday
photography. 1t may surprise some to
find that little modification of their eX-
listing X-ray apparatus is necessary so
long as high voltage continuous cur
rent is available. The best results are
obtained with the 200 volt to $50 volt
current from the main. A large ,rri-
mary current is used, sometimes as
much as 80 amperes thru a special tri-
pie anode electrolytic interrupter.
There is no danger to existing cables.
time during which the current is flow
ing, and for the same reason the x
ray tubes are not damaged, tho the
current thru the latter may be from
90 to so mlliamperes or more. While
excellent results are obtained with the
tube, say. 24O inches from the plate,
good results are also obtained at dis
lance of 80 inches, and in this case
there is so little distortion that the
parts are represented at almost exact
ly their natural size.
This and the convenience of deal
ing with fretful and iidgety patients,
such as children. make this new mod
itication one of considerable value.

A Factory Town in the cornfields.

From cornfield to manufacturing
town and site of one of the largest in
dustrial plants of the country is the
transformation which year has
brought to section of Illinois prairie
about twenty miles from Chicago. The
change has followed upon the organ
ization of the eighty million dollar
Corn Products Refining Company to
control the glucose industry of the
United States. The new town. as yet
unnamed, is growing up around the
site selected for the companys five
million dollar plant. The Standard Oil
interests, which dominate the new cor
poration, are said to be responsible for
the decision to build the plant in the
center of the corn belt, and for the
choice of the present location on
section of farm land about twenty
miles from Chicago along the drainage
canal 1t is near the lines of several
of the corn carrying roads and mile
from the small town of Summit, III.
The Corn Products Company has
no intention of emulating the policy of
the Steel Corporation, which has built
up city around their new steel plants
at Gary, Ind, and has concerned itself
only with the glucose plant itself, out
as soon as it became known in Chi
cago that the biggest plant Of the Corn
Products Refining Company was to be
erected in the open country, real estate
promoters flocked to the ground and
started the development of the ada
cent territory.
Work was begun on the new Corn
Products plant last year. but it was de-
cided for the present to build only one
of the three units which are to make
up the maximum capacity Of 10000
bushels day. At present there arc
about 500 workmen on the ground,
whom the Corn Products Company are
housing in temporary quarters, but the
Chicago spectators have laid out and
graded streets for a small manufac-
turing center.

Veteran Trainer and Driver
Horribly Mangled By His
Trotting Horse, J. B.
RIGHT EYE MASHED TO PULP
Upper Lid Is Almost Torn Away,
Cheek Bone and Nose Are Broken,
and Terribly overwhelmingly Eye
Removed by surseons-Frye Well
Known in Racing Circles.

Tom Frye, we'll known in racing
and horsemen's circles turnout Iowa
as a trainer and driver. was terribly
injured at the fair grounds track this
forenoon. when he was kicked by his
trotting gelding, j. B. The animals
sharp shoe literally mashed Frye's
face to a pulp, and if he escapes death
he will be fortunate. The veteran
driver will be disfigured for life, even
tho he makes a recovery.
Frye had been working out the ami
NAL on the track and bad Just finished
when he started to drive thru the
gate to the barn. When he slowed
up. for some reason or other, I'M
known to Frye, the animal started
kicking. Frye was struck in the face
by the horses sharp shoe, and the
first blow mashed the right eye to
jelly, and tore away the upper lid so
that it hung only by few shreds Of
skin. The mans nose was cut thru
to the bone and fractured, and his
right cheek was lacerated three inches
long and to the bone. The right cheek
bone was also broken. Another blow
from the horse caught Mr.. Frye on the
right arm. and while it did not break
it huge cash was cut in the flesh,
to the depth of the bone.
Frye was hurried to st. Thomas
hospital in an automobile, and sur
geons took charge of his injuries The
right eye was found to be entirely
gone, and what was left was removed
from the socket. The lid was sewed
back to the flesh and will probably be
saved.
Frye's condition is dangerous, but
the surgeons think he will make a
recovery. He is a man Of about so
years, and lives with his wife on the
fair grounds, property.

PRosAIc ORIGIN OF THE HALO.
Said to Have Been Placed Over Stat
ues of Saints to Preserve Them.

The origin of the halo dates back
to the eleventh and twelfth centuries.
Those years were rich in the building
Of churches and cathedrals There
were erected around the outside of
the sacred edifices statues. of the
saints, placed under the caves. In
time the caretakers of the buildings
perceived that the discoloration from
the rains ia. ing from I'll . roofs dis
figured the images Accordingly they
placed over the tops of them fiat wood
en- disks of sufficient size to protect
the statues Giotto began to paint
pictures when a boy, and his igno-
rance assumed the protecting disks as
an essential part of the saint. His
earliest pictures represent each sacred
figure topped off with what looks much
like the bottom of a barrel He ideal
lied this into a circle, dark at first,
but growing more luminous with each
successful production of his artistic
fancy, until he developed the circle
of light that has come down un-
changed through generations of paint
ers as a badge of sanctity.
