The Bishop of Marlborough told a
story In opening the ST. Thomas sale

difficulty which confronted church
workers in days gone by, says the Lon.
don Standard. Sixty years ago he
made a strenuous effort to stimulate
parochial life in the direction Of
amusement, but 1t was, he said, a
bad failure. The only thing which he
could recOllect of the details now was
that there was smoky magic lantern

SHARK AS TORPEDO DIRECTOR.
Odd Use to Which inventor Would
Have Put Sea Terror.

Fishes have been put to many queer
uses while still alive; but probably
the strangest was that suggested to
the war department by an inventor,
The propulsion Of submarine torpe-
does was the subject under discussion.
and he proposed that shark be i'm
prisoned In q tube at the rear end Of
the projectile. its movements to be
controlled by the active application Of
electricity. In case the shark attempt
ed to swim away 1t was to be given an
electric shock, and In this way kept
on Its course until the tropedo had
reached its target.
Another remarkable use to which
FISH has been put is as barometer.
The loach is very susceptible to atmos.
pheric changes. and when retained In
an aquarium is likely to throw itself
out at the approach OF or during any
remarkable change OF wind or wealth

DR.. Sven Hedin, the famous traveller

AT THE G. P. o.

The great quantity Of work turned out
by the government printing office requires
larger number Of different articles than
any other branch of the federal govern
ment. The general impression prevails
that paper Is the main item in the opera
ton of a bindery, and as a matter of bulk
this is true. A consideration Of the many
small details entering into the art Of
bookbinding. however. leads to the con-
clusion that a bindery. and particularly
Uncle Sans workshop. uses great va
riety Of articles.
Some peculiar items are on the yearly
schedules of supplies purchased for the
government printing Office bindery. For
instance, the workers require a large
number of eggs. the prepared albumen
not being satisfactory in all cases. Fresh
milk would lead the ca. cess reader to
suppose that the public printer was con-
tributing to the monday lunch. En-
ployes say that. unhappily for them. this
is not the case. milk being essential to
some of the finer classes of work.

Permission has been asked of the super
intendent of public buildings and grounds
for the water department to erect
a fountain on the reservation at the cor
ner of Sth street and Pennsylvania ave-
nue. southeast. and the superintendent OF
the water department says that he hopes
to have the fountain in place before a
very long time. Work will be begun as
soon as permission Is granted for the i'm
provement.
The fourth fountain will be erected at
the corner Of 9th and streets. All of
the fountains will be so arranged that
ice can be placed In the tanks which will
be attached to them. SO the water can
be cooled in the hot summer days.
"Of course we have not authority to
buy ice." said the superintendent, but
We are hoping that some philanthropic
individual will come along with do
nation toward defraying the expense of
ice when the time comes for its use.'
At the present time he says. the coils

the ice will not be installed, but a short
time before the weatht/ gets warm he
will have these installed in each of the

PRESIDENTS CAR ABLAzE.
Woodwork scorched, But No Sc
rious Damage Results.

DES MONIES, Iowa. September 90
An incipient blaze in the kitchen of the
Mayfower. President Taft's private car,
shortly after i o'clock this morning
caused some little commotion among
those on the car. The attendants
quickly extinguished the flames, how
ever. and practically no damage be-
yond the scorching of the woodwork
was occasioned. The cause of the blaze
is something Of a mystery. The Presi-
dent did not awaken
