BY an overwhelming vote the House
committee on constitutional amend
ement in the Georgia legislature yes
terday approved the bill making pro-
vision for the removal of the state
capitol to Macon. Several members
who voted favorably reserved the right
to oppose the measure when 1t reached
the floor of the House. Macon's con
tention for the state capitol is based on
the claims that 1t is more centrally To-
Gated geographically and that South
Georgia is growing more rapidly than
other sections of the state. These are
two facts that apply equally as well
to Ocala and conditions here, and we
see no good reason why Florida's sol
ons shouldn't emulate the example OF
their neighboring legislators.

SOME FINE CORN

Messrs. F. E. Weatherbee Of the Ma
rion Hardware Company and B. w.
Smith of st. Louis, representing the
John Dere Plow Company. drove out
yesterday to Heather Island on the Ok
lawaha river, where the Messrs. Kyle
and Young have recently drained 1000
acres of land that was formerly swamp
and sawgrass, along each side of the
crooked river. This land is now high
and dry and when the company's op-
erations are complete can be irrigated
at will These gentlemen were late
in the season getting any of it ready
for the plow, but put in corn in May,
which is now said to be the finest in
the county and will make, with only
one blowing, from Is to 100 bushels of
corn to the acre. 1t is of the prolific
variety. This land is solid vegetable
matter or muck and is from 10 to 20
feet deep and will last indefinitely
without fertilization. The crops that
can be grown on the land next year
will be an eye opener for the entire
state.

Tragic Story Of Snake Charmer and

Miss X. a snake charmer we'll
known among show people, firmly be-
iieved that one of her snakes was
really fond Of her. She could do any
thing with it-fondle it, kiss and ca
reSs it.
She grew so fond Of it that at last
she even let it sleep on her bed to the
great disgust of the other performers
IN the show She would eat her meals
with this horrible thing cooled around
her neck, and once in very warm
weather. she took it under her coat
into the woods with her and let it
anuse itself by crawling over the
ground She followed it about and
kept most careful watch over it lit
was a valuable performer but il
showed no disposition TO SC off into the
woods. as she feared it might. but
came back to her and coled round her
rs usual.
She WAS warned several times that
the reptile was very dangerous. but she
grew more and more reckless. and the
snake appeared to become more and
more attached to her
And then one day without any warn
ing, directly after performance when
She was caressing it in her own room.
the snake suddenly threw back its
head, looked at her steadily and with

hastily don these jackets, which are
kept in all submarines.
They have still another use, for, be-
ing full of air, they serve as life
buoys. Thus, in the event of a sub
marine being struck by passing
ship and holed these dresses would
be put on at once. Then the hatch
could be opened, and the men would
float to the surface.
Air always seeks the highest point,
and as soon as submarine leaks the
water fills the bottom and pushes the
air to the top, where a certain guam
tity is always held in any odd little
corner near the roof. Therefore, thin
steel partitions, depending foot or
two from the roof in places where it
slopes or forms corners, are being
fitted in order to form air traps in
different parts of the interior.
Thus, when a bad leak occurs,
filling the submarine with water,
the air is pressed into these
traps. The crew Immediately seize
! their helmets and stand with heads
and shoulders above the water in the
air traps, so that they can breathe
while putting on the safety dress.
Another invention that has been
tried in one or two of the underwater
craft consists Of a long flexible tube
attached to the outside. At one end
is a float, while the other commune
! Gates with the interior In the event
I Of an accident this tube is liberated,
| and is at once borne to the surface
by the float, to which is attached a
flare, to give notice to any ship near
/ at hand. Until the submarine is
raised, the crew can breathe through
this tube, or food might even be
passed down
At least one American vessel is
fitted with a door through which the
crew can escape if necessary. This
door opens into a chamber, which in
its turn communicates with an air
lock. If it is desired to leave the sub
marine, diving dress is donned and
the air lock entered. The door com
municating with the interior Of the
| vessel is closed, and then the diver
goes into the outer compartment,
closing the door of the air lock after
him. Water is then allowed to enter,
and when it is full he merely opens
the door and steps out. The door is
then closed and the water pumped
out again, SO that others can follow.
