Searsmont telling what might be done
by utilizing tidal power, rodoubt some

Rudyard Kipling in recent magazine
story suggests it as means by which
Great Britain may be made Independent of
coal and coal strikes. On another page we
print an account of tidal power model
demonstrated at Bath, the article con-
Guiding with these words: "Sooner Or
later the coast of Maine will be using
the tides of the sea to obtain practically
perpetual power out of the rise and fall
of the ocean tides for the development
of industrial power and the storage of
electricity with all its uses"

Mrs. Champ Clark in statement given

In the divorce action for separate
maintenance instituted at Providence.
R. l., by Mrs. Gentner, in which she
claimed $50, 900 alimony, she testified that
her husband, L. L. Gentner, had bought
an interest in newspaper called the Wal
do County Herald, from which he was
getting an income. Mr.. Gentner was on
the stand July 3rd, and from a newspa-
per report of his testimony, which was
given under oath, we quote as follows:
Mr.. Gentner admitted he had put some
money into the paper. 81 put in the
money to see if we couldn't get rid of
that sheriff, " said Gentner, and every
body in the court room smiled. But
didn' t make any money out of the VEN
ture. In fact, | was paying out all the
time.
Mr.. Gentner testified to owning other
property in Maine, but he declared he
hadn't got cent of income out of any
thing he owned in Maine for sometime.
THAT sheriff" was Amos F. Carleton,
who during his terms of office had made
Waldo county dry and had driven motor
ious violators of the prohibitorv law out
of the State. At the time Mr.. Gentner
was putting money into newspaper to
be used to "get rid of that sheriff" he
was reported to have said that he would
spend S., 900 to defeat Carleton.
1t is evident that Democrats who took
stock in this paper knew what they were
doing. One of them remarked at the
time that he did not expect any returns
from the stock but regarded the money
as Campaign contribution. 1t is also
evident that Republican investors were
deceived, both as to the policy of the
paper and the dividends they were led to
expect from it. They were told that the
paper was to be non-partisan and devoted
solely to advancing the interests of the
city and county, whereas it has been de-
voted solely to promoting the persona
and political fortunes of the editor, and
has assailed with virulent abuse every
business and professional man who did
not yield him allegiance or pay him trib-
ute. The banking institutions of the
city, on which its business interests de-
pend, have been special objects of at
tack, and only their acknowledged solid
ity and the sterling character of their
managers has averted a run that would
have been disastrous to the whole CON-
munity.

Morris Schaff, who has written so en-.
tertainingly of Old West Point and the
Battle of Gettysburg, is now contribut-
ing to the Atlantic Monthly series of
articles on 1.-The Sunset of the Confed-
eracy." He is master of most charm
ing literary style; and himself partici-
pant in the Civil War, with personal
friends in both armies, writes from
actual knowledge of men and events. We
have from time to time quoted from his
writings, when they had local interest.
In the July Atlantic he invites his read
ers and friends to some suitable spot
from which to see the veterans go by on
the day before the surrender of Lee, and
from that point describes the officers and
regiments as they pass. For example:
That regiment just passing, its guidons
flirting so cheerily, is the first Maine.
AT its head is Col. Cilley, and when all is
still tonight, he with his regiment will be
standing guard across the Lynchburg
Pike, just this side of the little grave
yard at Appomatox, and within hearing
of the enemy's bivouac down in the old,
weary looking hamlet.
And here is mention of another Maine
hero.
Leading the first Brigade is Chamber
lain of Maine, and for the sake of Round
Top, the Key of Gettysburg, which at
the swords tip he helped to save, and
for the sake of his gentleness and knight
illness, for he will bring that division to a
salute when the Army of Northern
Virginia marches by to lay down their
arms, wave your laurel for Chamberlain.

NEW GRAIN DISCOVERED.

A new grain known as black WIN
ter emmer has been evolved after
years of study by Prof. Buffum, who
conducts an experiment farm in the
Big Horn basin, near Worland, Wyo.
The grain is somewhat larger than
wheat, and is a cross of wheat and
several other less known grains. 1t
will grow in much drier soil than
wheat and four times as much can
be grown to the acre. 1t weighs
more to the bushel than wheat, and
while hardly so fine as that grain for
food purposes may assist materially
in solving the general food problem,
owing to its excellence and cheapness
as fodder for the animals whose flesh
figures on the dinner tables of men.
Emmer itself is not novelty. 1t
has been raised for many centuries,
and has been given much attention
by farmers in Russia.

RATHER UNDUTIFUL.

A diplomat, at dinner in Wash
ington, discussed the crown prince
of Germany.
scHe gives his poor father lot of
trouble" the diplomat said, with a
frown. "The Reichstag incident,
where he showed open disapproval of
the Kaiser's peace policy, is only one
of many similar incidents that the
public hears nothing about.
"a friend Of mine, one winter
night, was skating with the crown
prince at St. N1oritz, in the Swiss
Engadine. The sky glanced and
glittered splendidly with its host of
stars, and my friend, pointing to a
star of marvellous brilliance, said:
Il wonder what star that is ?"
."sDoubtless,' said the crown
prince, with a sneering laugh, it is
some new decoration wherewith my
father has seen fit to honor the ruler
Of the heavens '"-Washington Star.

WONDERFUL EFFECT OF COCA
Enables One Chewing the Leaves to
Put Forth Long-c Continued Exer-
ton Without Fatigue.

Some remarkable properties per-
Tain to coca-the dried leaves Of
small tree growing in Peru and
Rolivia-the chief being its power
to enable one eating it to put forth
Iong-continued exertion without fa-
tigue. Coca has nothing to do with
cocoa.
This property was known and
priced long before the Spanish con-
quest, the leaves being employed even
as medium of exchange, so highly
esteemed were they. After the con-
quest they became one of the most
valuable articles Of export. At Po-
tosi alone 100000 bushels were con-
sumed yearly.
Under the influence of the leaves
of this plant miners can work night
and day, with only brief intervals
Of crest and sleep. The slightest
amount of food, together with a
handful Of the leaves, enables the
native to endure the severest and
most protracted toll Of every kind.
They take them three times day,
chewing them and lodging them in
the side of the mouth like quid Of
tobacco.
Some time ago an interesting test
was made in Canada Of the power Of
coca. A lacrosse club, consisting of
sixteen players, all of sedentary pro-
fessions, held forth against all COM
ers, white men or Indians. The club
men were fortified mainly by coca,
which they chewed during the game,
swallowing the saliva: One day,
during which the heat in the sun was
10 degrees Fahrenheit, though their
antagonists, mechanics and trades
men Of sturdy build, were exhausted
before the game was finished, the
men with the coca were as free from
fatigue as at the beginning.-Har.

FROM FAMILY oF SOLDIERS
Greatest Military Leader
Of His Time.

Marshal Turenno was probably
the greatest military leader Of his
day, and it may be said that he
played no small part in the making
of European history. AS grandson
Of the Prince Of Orange his martial
spirit was natural heritage. His
carly lessons in the art of warfare
were taken under Prince Maurice
and Prince Henry Frederick, his ma
ternal uncles, two as doughty war
riors as ever bore arms for Hol-
land.
In 1880 Turenne was sent as a
hostage to France and at that point
his real military career began. He
led a successful campaign of inya-
sion against the Spaniards and on
his triumphant return to France
Richelieu, out of gratitude, offered
him his daughter in marriage, but
Turenne declined the honor on relig-
ious grounds.
At the age of % Turenne was
made field marshal and in 1913
he was raised to the rank of marshal
of France in recognition Of his
valiant services. Immediately after
ward he added to the luster of his
war-like career by waging success
full war in Germany, compelling the
duke of Bavaria to sue for peace.
In the early stages of the civil
wars that began in France he was
opposed to the king, but in 1851 be-
came reconciled with the court and
was made commander Of the French
army. In 1867 he was appointed
marshal Of all the armies and was
chosen military tutor to Louis XIV.
He was killed by cannon ball at
Sassbach in 1875 while engaged in
a campaign against the Germans.
"Our father is deadv' cried out
his army as it fed and disbanded.
