The Old Time Skipper.

Inmates Of the wardroom on an
American man-of-war often allude to
the captain as the old man or the skip
per. The latter 1t not. as many sup
pose, a slang term. but a sound word,
of excellent etymoiogy and valuable as
carrying within itself an interesting
bit Of commercial history. Skipper ia
simply shipper. and 1t comes down
from q time when every commander
was as we'll part owner of vessel and
cargo. or. literally. the shipper. There
are still local shipyards along the At
lantic coast. some Of them the out
growth OF private yards where the
"vessel owners" of years ago built
their own ships to carry their own
and their neighbor's crops to market.

The Screw.

The invention Of the screw is gen
orally attributed to the old Greek
Archimedes. from all accounts one OF
the greatest scientific thinkers and
mechanicians the ancient world eve,
knew. The screw is one Of the great.
est things in mechanics, simple as /,
Is, and adds immensely to the unaided
human power. 1t is claimed that one
man. with the help of the screw, can
press down or raise up as much as
200 men can without it. In addition
to the Invention of the screw, ArcEi.
medes invented the sung!ass. various
devices for battering down walls and
some half dozen other valuable ways
and means Of providing power.

Didn't Want a Postoff;ee.

In most countries the introduction of
postal facilities is regarded as an un.
mixed blessing, but it was not 80 in
Korea. The postoffice erected there in
1880 had but brief existence. The
NOR. In their blind hatred of all in.
novations. rioted and burned it to the
ground. The natural result was to
make Korean stamps Of the first issue
In used state Of great value. The
matter was allowed to drop for a
time. and 1t was not until ten years
later that the present system was es-
tablished.

SENSATION IN
~ DIVORCE ACTION
G16sband Intirnates Wife
y Married Him Merely For
Financial Gain

Bismarck, n. D., Nov. 1.-The di-
vorce suit Of Rena Ashbridge against
Thomas Ashbridge is being tried in
district court before Judge Crawford
Of Dickinson.
The cause has sensational features.
The defendant filed a cross complaint
and the contest was waxed warm.
The parties were married April II,
1910. and lived together intermittent
ly for nearly a year. 1t was Mr.. Ash
bridges second matrimonial venture
and the brides third, she having been
twice divorced in the Burleigh county
court, her late husband being Mr..
Marsh.
The plaintiff alleges in%toxication,
cruelty and failure to provide, while
Mr.. Ashbridge in his cross complaint
intimates that the woman married
him for the sole purpose of securing
financial gain. He says h absented
herself from their home for long in
tervals. and finally declined to re-
