RIFLE KILLS UNDER WATER
German Inventor Comes to Aid OF
Diver Who 10 Often Threat
ened by Sharks.

A German inventor has come to
the aid of the worker under water,
the diver who is threatened by sharks
and other monsters of the sea. Hith-
erto the diver in dangerous waters
has had to rely for his safety on the
use of the knife, or, failing in that,
upon quick return to the surface.
The German has invented a rifle
that can be fired under water and is
designed for the complete arming of
the diver. The strange feature about
this device is that it fires not bullet
but water, which is driven with such
force that it penetrates with remark
able power. Indeed, it is claimed
that the inventor has pierced armor
plate of ordinary thickness with the
water jet from this strange weapon.
The water rifle has stout barrel
and is loaded with cartridge en-
cased in india rubber. It is worthy
of note, in this connection, that in
the eos experiments were made
with submarine rifle firing small
explosive projectiles by means of
compressed air, but the invention
never got beyond the experimental
stsge.-Earper's Weekly.

GOOD FORTUNE OF MlLLET
Artist Was Never Subject Of Gossip
and Escaped Senseiess Admiration
Of Thouehtiess Followers.

If Millet's work failed of full ap-
probation in his lifetime, he was
nevertheless fortunate in many
things. He was never the subject of
public gossip, and he escaped what
is still worse-the senseless admira-
ton Of thoughtless followers. No
crowd of common artists and anna
tours followed his footsteps or sang,
his praises in or out of season. He
never had anything to do with what
is called art life; he simply minded
his own business. His tendency to
seclusion was blessing to him, and
the findings of Barbison are good
fortune.
Seeking no display, his time and
thought were his own, and all he
asked OF expected was to live. He
was free in spirit, and whatever
bonds he was in were caused by
forces greater than himself. He tried
to hide his troubles from everyone
but Sensier, to whom he went as
to brother. In his work he trusted
himself. His subjects were of his
day, but his manner of treating
them was original and included prin-
ciples that are universal. -Century.

A NEW CONCEPTION OF STATES.
k1ANSHIP

During the last two sessions Of
congress there have been several
occasions when the vote has shown
that there has been considerable
individual responsibility shown.
That is, members have deiied the
party whip and voted in accord
ance with their honest, individual
opinions. There is too much OF
the politician and too little states
mansh.p shown by most of our
representatives in congress. 1t is
true this is an ancient fault but the
times seem ripe for a change.
Many a time within the memory
of the average-ag man have good
measures beed defeated by the solid
vote of the opposition party for
political effect; simply to embarrass
their party opponents and incident
~ perpetuate themselves in power.
it has been considered ample JUS
LITIGATION in the eyes OF the voters
at home for their representatives
IN congress to have opposed good
measure simply because it has been
opposed by their party.
Is the welfare OF a party greater
than the welfare OF the people at
large' Certainly not, and the time
has come when the people should
put their stamp Of disapproval up
on the old-tinle policy OF throwing
impediments in the way of whole
some legislation for the sole reason
that it has been proposed by the
opposition party.
This independent voting that has
been SO marked in the last few
genaral elections is the morning
star heralding the coming of a new
day of political awakening. From
now on it will be good men and
meritorlOus measures that will re-
ceive the support Of the people.
The matter of their party complex
ion will be secondary considera
ton. The success OF any political
party is not the end, it is only the
:neans to an end. Good govern
ment regardless OF the agency bv
which 1t comes is what is wanted.

ne third party platform prom
,ses a plank regarding the truss
which will be superior to that OF
either the regular republican or
democratic party platforms. The
new party will propose that trusts
DC controlled instead of prosecuted.
The publicity feature will be en-
phasized and commission provid-
ed having the power to fix maxi
mum and minimum prices on trust
controlled articles. Some of the
trusts, like the Standard Oil Com
pany and the International Har-
vester Co., have devised methods
by which the cost of putting the
manufactured articles of these con-
Germs on the market has been re-
duced to minimum, considerably
cheaper than can the individual
companies if the government dis
solves the corporation and COM
pells them to resume their ORIGINAL
units, because there is not now the
duplication Of expense that former
ly existed. The intelligent thing
therefore to do is to restrict the
earnings of the company and there
by regulate prices instead OF pre-
venting their union which has
proved to be economically a good
thing.

The little four-year-old daugh-

RADiUM is COMMON CURE
Its Application, Chiefly by Drinking
and inhalation, an Established
Usage in Germany.

Application Of radium, chiefly by
drinking and inhalations, has now
become quite an established usage in
most of the German cure stations.
DR.. Frumesan, who has visited most
OF them, has likewise become firmly
convinced of the efficaciousncss of
the radium cure through inhalations,
and has gone to considerable expense
to set up an installation in Paris.
The most effective way Of applying
the cure is by means Of inhalations
OF radium emanations. For this
purpose a comfortable room has been
especially prepared. The doors and
windows have been thoroughly pad
ded and made almost Theoretically
tight. Accommodation is provided
for eight or ten patients, who may
take the cure simultaneously. The
radium emanation is provided by
'vollinhalatorium," a device which
is already popular and widely used
in Germany. The "vollinhalatori-
UNI" is a sort Of upright tube, stand
ing yard or more high, at the bot
tom of which the radium is placed.
Special currents of air are forced up
through the tube and convey the
carnations of radium through the
room with the air, which is itself
constantly renewed with a special
supply of oxygen.
