INVENTOR KEEPS HIS SECRET
Austrian Governments Large Offer
Of Deposit, Sealed Until His
Death, lie Refused.

At the Paris exposition in 1900
there was exhibited an assortment
Of marquetry work of great ~intricacy
OF design and beauty of finish, but
at prices SO low as to cast reflection
upon its genuineness. Many of the
pieces were Of duplicate pattern.
Here is another industrial secret
Of considerable value that doubtless
is destined to 60 to the grave with
its discoverer, if it has not already
done so, says Casters Magazine. No
amount of examination, no matter
how searching, suficed to reveal the
manner in which the designs of Ia
bic tops were duplicated with such
marvellous accuracy.
That much the inventor, an Aus
trian, was willing to diyulge. The
pattern, instead of being made singly
Of the thickness requisite for the
piece it was intended to ornament,
such as a table top, was built up Of
pieces two or three feet long, from
which sections we're then sawed off.
How this composite structure was
held together was quite another mat
ter.
Interest in the invention reached a
point where the Austrian govern
ment offered its discoverer a small
fortune on condition that his secret
be deposited, sealed, in the royal
vaults, in order that it might be
known after his death. He was to
have the sole right of manumacture
as long as he lived, the secret not
to be revealed until after his de-
mise, but he preferred to keep it
locked up in his own head.

could be overdone. That same night
there was a terrific row because some
NapoleOnic genius succeeded in fitch
ing the only package Of sugar in the
outfit, just after the captains orderly
had formally donated it to the troops.
Every mans hand was lifted against
the other, and the quarrels and re-
ordinations became so fierce that
several of the former cattlemen
fondled six-shooters dangling at their
hips.
Next day I was ordered to report
at division headquarters, across the
hill. While | was standing at atten-
ton l heard the following dialogue
between General Wheeler and his ad-
jutant:

Wheeler turned to me. AS he recog-
nized the cross sabers and number on
my army hat his face clouded and he
said:

to be good fighters-but for down

ance aboard the American vessel
Rodgers greeted him courteously, and
then asked:
DO you know what ship you are
aboard Off"
"Why. yes" responded the British
officer: at is his majesty's ship, Sea-
horse"
did you ever hear of a vessel
called The PRESIDENT" inquired
Rodgers.
Indeed 1 have" replied the unsus-
Meeting Englishman. That is the
craft we are supposed to take"
well, The President has taken
YOU" smiled Rodgers.
The full truth of the ruse by which
he had been betrayed flashed at once
upon the chagrined Briton, but he
saw that he was helpless. The crew
of The President were at quarters
ready for instant action, and the
Highfyer lay at their mercy under
the frowning muzz1es of the Ameri-
can guns. There was nothing for II
but to submit as gracefully as pos
sible. Rodgers ordered the British
colors struck, and soon the stars and
stripes f1Oated in the breeze over
both vessels. The sword worn by
Hutchinson, the English commander,
was the personal property of Rodgers,
taken amidst other plumber at the
burning of Havre de Grace, out
destined to be returned to the owner
| in token of the surrender Of one OF
his maiesty's crack sea-fghters.
| The Highffyer was taken captive to
the American shore, and the country
once again rang with the praises Of
the dashing and Ingenious Rodgers.
To Rodgers and The President also
belongs the peculiar distinction OF
having fought for 80 hours in abso-
Lutte daylight. This is explained by
the fact that the engagement in ques-
ton took place in the Norway lati-
tudes where perpetual daylight exists
at certain season of the year. 1t
was Rodgers who broke up the block
ade of the port of New York, and who
! became known to friends and foes
alike by the fitting title OF the
swamp fox of the seas" He was act
ing secretary of the American navy
in 1923. and on August l, 1928, he
died at philadelphia in his fifty
| eighth year.

clans were sent home and their
places taken by youthful enthusiasts
who infused fresh blood and spirit
into the staid circle at Washington.
Among the latter we're Henry Clay
OF Kentucky and John Calhoun or
South Carolina. These two became
leaders in house and senate, and 1t
was chiefly owing to their fiery eiO-
quence in defense of Rodgers action
and in favor of adopting punitive
treasures with regard to England, that
resident Madison was finally forced
to declare war.
More than one writer has fallen
into the error of declaring Commo-
dore John Rodgers to have been OF
foreign birth. AS a matter OF fact,
he was American to the core, having
been born in the state of Maryland,
July II, 1771. His favorite vessel was
The President and with her he ac-
complished wonders of naval war
fare. When the war with England
ooened he was sent out on a cruise,
and in 14S days captured IL British
merchant ships and the English
! armed schooner, the Highfiyer. The
crew of the latter vessel had burned
and pIundered Havre de Grace, Mary
land, the home of Rodgers, so that the
commodore may be said to have had
private as we'll as patriotic reasons
! for wishing to lay The President
! alongside of her.
Before he sailed from Boston Rodg-
ers had obtained from some unknown
source a partial knowledge of the
secret signal code OF the British

be constructed accordingly. When
he came in sight Of the H:ghfyer he
flew the British ensign, which was
