FIRST DIVING BELL
WAS MADE BY HALEY
French Profess to Have the Best
APPARATUS

The operations in connection with the
Pluviose remind Paris paper that the
idea of providing divers with a suitable
apparatus is not exactly modern. As
early as the fifteenth century expert
ments were made with machines for
diving, more or less ingenious and
practicable. but it was not until 1721
that anything was done from which can
be traced step by step the perfection
of the divers art today.
In that year HALEY of comet fame
made an apparatus which could be
turned to practical account His div
ing bell was of wood. He explained his
scheme fully in a paper read before the
Royal society, of which learned body
he was the secretary.
The first practical diving dress was
the invention of A. Siebe of Brighton,
saws the London Globe. The French
adopted the Siebe system and used it
until 1851 when it was replaced by
that of Francois Cabriol, and 1t is said
that the apparatus of eRougnayrol-
Denayroure has marked the last degree
of perfection. despite the inventions of
the Australian engineers. Gordon and
Buchanan, whose metal cuirasse weighs
127 kilos, or rather more than 279
pounds. Such is the judgment of the
French press.

speakers will address the gathering.
The league has many branches in
eastern centers. 1t is a voluntary or
ganfzation, which admits to member
ship women regardless of occupation.
The chief objects are to promote the
sale of union made products of all
crafts, to be helpful in advancing the
sale OF goods made in sanitary work
shops, TO secure better wages and
shorter work hours for women who are
engaged in trades not yet organized
and to be helpful in building up and
strengthening all labor and Industrial
organizations. 1t is strictly nonpar-
tisan and nonsectarian and welcomes
all within its ranks who desire to
assist in establishing better social and
economic conditions.
Mrs H How, international organizer,
has been in San Francisco for a week
or more and has already interested
many IN the movement.
AT the recent meeting in Stockton of
the brotherhood of railroad trainmen,

cided that joint committees from these
organizations will outline a policy and

dorse any political party, but may in
dorse candidates who are favorable to
their interests in regard to railroad
legislation.F They wish ii understood

BRONX CHIMPANZEE
ENTERTAINED A CROWD
Only the Monkey Dined But
Others We're Delighted.

New York. July 27.-Baldy, one Of
the chimpanzees at the Bronx zoo, en-
tertained 400 guests yesterday at the
Baird's court, between the monkey and
lion houses, at a dinner where he was
the sole diner. His guests did not in
the least mind Baldy's neglect to fur
nish them with refreshments. They
We're too much engaged in watching
the gastronomic feats of their host.
Baldy's table was set in the centre
of the court and he seated himself
and tucked his napkin under his chin
with great care. He leisurely took a
drink Of iced tea and then with a knife
and fork devoured the good things set
before him in a manner that was
lesson in table etiquette. He ate with
his fork. After disposing of the des-
sert, composed Of sliced bananas and
ice cream, he carefully bathed his
hands in a finger bowl and lit Gig
arctic.
He had not finished when the heat
caused him to mop his face diligently
with a silk handkerchief. He decided
to take a bath and did so very delib-
erately, apparently oblivious to the
scores of eyes upon him. After the
bath he donned a bath robe and then
strClled across the lawn and seated
himself in a chair to listen to the
band, smoking another cigarette in
great enjoyment. Next Sunday Baldy's
companion and two orangs viii dine
together in Baird's court.
