WONDERS OF A WATCH.
Its Marvellous Mechanism and the
Power That Moves 1t.

Power mat MOVES u.
We hear much from time to time Of
the wonders of this or that complicat-
ed and intricate machine, but there
are few pieces of machinery more mar
A watch, it may be stated as gen.
eral proposition. is the smallest, most
delicate instrument of the same num-
Der of parts that has ever been de-
vised. About 175 different pieces OF
material enter into its construction.
and upward of 2,4OO separate opera
tons are comprised in its manufacture.
Certain of the facts connected with
its performance are well nigh incredi-
BILE when considered as a whole. A
blacksmith strikes several hundred
blows on his anvil in a day and, as Il
matter of course, is glad when Sunday
comes, but the roller jewel of a watch
makes every day-and day after day
432, 900 impacts against the fork, or
157, $3.50. 900 blows during the course OF
year. without stop or rest-some
3.153, 6OOO 900 blows during the space Of
twenty years. the period for which a
watch is usually guaranteed to keep
good time.
But the wonder of it does not cease
here. 1t has been calculated that the
power that moves the watch is eQuiva-
lent to only four times the force used
in a fleas jump. The watch power is
therefore what might be termed the
equivalent of a four fea-power. One
horsepower would suffice to operate
100000 600 watches.
Furthermore. the balance wheel of a
watch is moved by this four tiea-power
l 43-10O inches with each vibration, or
3,55S24 miles continuously in one year.
Not much oil is required TO lubricate
the little machine on its $500 mile
run. 1t takes only one-tenth of drop
to oil the entire machinery for years
service.-Harper's Weekly.

JAPANESE HERoIsM.
The Brave Record Of the Loss Of .

Subjoined is the translation of mes
sage written by Lieutenant Tsutoma
Sakuma, who was in command OF the
Japanese submarine No. 6, which
foundered while maneuvering In Hiro-

in the coming tower of the submarine
after she had been brought to the sur

striking the bottom the water began
rushing in. the switchboard was i'm
mersed in water, all electric lights went
out, the fuses burnt away. and the
boat was filed with poisonous gases,
so that we experienced the greatest
difficulty in breathing.
Under these conditions we worked
our very utmost with the hand pumps
to empty the main ballast tank, which,
l believe, we succeeded in doing, al
though we could not read the gauges

REBELS IN COUNCIL
Of WAR over CANNON

Washington, June pa secres
conference OF number Of the leaders
OF the House insurgents" was held
late yesterday to discuss the subject
OF further activity at the present SEES
sion' The question of whether an at
tempt should be made to depose
Speaker Cannon was preached. and
again divided sentiment on the SUBJ
Ject was discussed. Statements were
submitted by different members who
mad canvassed the situation and re-
ports were made Of careful counts on
the proposition. It was agreed that
1t was extremely doubtful whether
enough votes could be obtained to
carry through such an action.
One "insurgent' reported that he
had carefully sounded the Democratic
side, and had found that the Demo
Gratis preferred to enter the congress

still the presiding officer of the
House. Members of the minority, he
said believed their chances for carry
ing the House were improved with
the issue of "Cannonism" still live

of the insurgents" however. that the
Democrats would vote solidly to de
pose Speaker Cannon if the motion
was made.

was tnaJ OF MT. M. v. hlcnaIus, III
dustrial agent of the Southern Rail-
way, and one of the best posted men
in the South on questions affecting
immigration, land values and other
matters pertaining to the work in
hand.
Mr.. Richards spoke for more than
an hour and half, but his audience
did not seem to lose interest. His
subject was 1.-THE Practical Solution
Of immigration" and Mr.. Richards
spoke from several years experience
in that line of work. He told of the
difficulties of getting desirable class
Of immigration to come South, under
old conditions, but does not believe
this will be difficult in future, provid-
ed the people Of the South will ad-
vertise their states and tell the world
what vast opportunities the farm
lands of this section offer the thrifty,
industrious farmer.
Mr.. Patten Speaks.
Mr.. Richards was followed by Mr..
IL. H. Patten, secretary of Congress
Hall, Washington, whose subject was
Good and Bad immigration" Mr..
Patten condemned foreign immigra-
ton in unmeasured terms. He quoted
statistics to maintain the position he
assumed in the matter, telling Of the
troubles of San Francisco and other
coast cities with the Japs; of the
East with European criminals and of
other places with their trials and
troubles.
Mr.. Patten showed, from the start,
that he was opposed to foreign immi-
grafton of any kind, and told his au-
dience of plan to divert the scum
of Europe toward the South this win
ter; that legislation would prohibit
any more of these people landing in
New York, and that thousands OF
Sicillians and others would be turned
toward this section by the European
steamship lines.
Mr.. J. H. HawIey.
Mr.. ]. H. Hawley, general freight
and passenger agent of the Gulf and
Ship Island Railroad, was the next
speaker. Mr.. Hawley discussed wha
} immigration would do for South Mis-
sissippi, with it's vast areas of unculti
waited lands. Mr.. Hawley made only
short address, but it was full of tha
sentiment that pervaded the conven
| tion from first to last-that only the
best class of immigrants were desired
by Mississippi, but that, by careful
advertising and judicious work on thu
part of the organization, the Interest,"
of the state were not likely to be in
jured by the coming of these people
He said especial inducements shout,
be held out to the farmers of tn
North and West, many of whom ar
seeking a more congenial cline, ant
to whom the productiveness of tn
lands of Mississippi would readily ar
peal.
Mr.. H. H. Bolton, immigration agen
of the Mobile, Jackson and Kansa
| City Railroad, was the next speake
| of the day. Mr.. Bolton did not speal
long, as it was getting late, but toll
the delegates what might, and wha
would be accomplished by concerto
effort, and pledged his road to do a
it could to promote the fuller develoI
ment of the state.
At the close of Mr.. Bottoms address
the convention adjourned.

Big Convention

grand organization working, not for
one town or county, but for the en-
tire state.
The South Mississippi delegates
showed especial interest in the plan,
which means a great deal to that Sec
ton, since it will bring farmers to
the state for many thousands of acres
of the most fertile land in Mississippi
and do much for the development of
the agricultural resources of the
Southern part of the state. There
are large tracts of cut-over lands that
have been lying idle in that section
for years, and these will be put into
state of productiveness through the
state organization.
The committees discussed various
suggestions and evolved this from the
many offered. 1t is believed this will
have the desired effect, as it furnishes
means of exploiting the state, some
thing that has never been done, ex-
cept in a crude, half-hearted way.

HOT ON TRAIL Of
ALLEGED MURDERER
Every Available Detective in
Chicago Seeking for Arrest
of Slayer of Capris.

CHICAGO, March 20,-Following
closely upon the disclosing of the idcn-
tity Of the murderer of Carmelino
Capris, detectives today received In
formation which they believe would re-
suit IN his arrest in a short time. The
police believe they arc certain they
know the block in which the slayer is
hiding
Every available detective was put on
the trail in the vicinity of West Oak
and Franklin streets. and Assistant
Chief of Police Schcttler and Inspec
tor Revere took personal charge of the
distribution of the men.
The suspect was seen on the street
as late as last night by one of the men
who saw the slayer fee from the Cap
ris store after the death fight. The
police believe that the slayer will at
tempt to make his way to New York
and back TO Italy as soon as possible,
and that he is now in hiding awaiting
the first opportunity TO depart.
Startling developments, which dis
closed a story of love, jealousy and re-
venge with its setting in Italy and on
Chicago, came with the revealing Of
the identity of the slayer suspect.
Aiding the police are three cousins
of the merchant who was found slain
in his store. The relatives came here
from Michigan and are believed to have
given valuable information regarding
Capris 3 life in Italy, his marriage and
separation from q woman who was the
wife Of another man, rival in love.
Tho cousins vowed vengeance and de-
clared they would yet meet the slayer,
