SALVAGE SHOT FROM THE SEA
ssamen on English Coast Earn Money
by Selling Old Projectiles
to the Admiralty.

Shot picking Is the art" Of retriev-
Ing shot and shell from the bottom Of
the sea. In order to practice this
profession nowadays a man must be
in possession OF boat, plenty OF cour-
age and a license.
Target practice is carried on almost
every day at Portsmouth, England,
and the admiralty are willing to pay
good price for shells which are re-
covered from sand banks and shallow
water.
Shot pickers go out to sea In boats,
watch the firing intently while 1t Is In
progress, and then, as soon as the last
shot has settled in the water, dis.
perse In various directions In order
to discover the shells.
These are located by means Of a
long line weighted with lead, which
has small buoy fixed at one end.
This end Ia thrown overheard, and tho
boat is rowed slowly in a semicircle.
The weighted line drags over the
sand beneath the water and catches
against any shell that is projecting
above the sand. A thin, firm pole ID
then lowered, so that 1t makes clean
line from the shot to the side OF the
boat, and, while this is held in place
by one man, pick Is thrust down by
another to draw the projecting sho4
from the sand beneath the water.

fed into his hole. There will be no
mention of Tafts name, no proffer
of Taft man for chairman. Roose-
welt and LaFollette, the latter with
the help of Taft can give him, will
be left to fight for convention con-
troll.
1t was published that Roosevelt
himself would not go 10 Chicago. II
is now understood that both he and
LaFollette will be there, Roosevelt
with a seat among the delegates.
The latter has made up his mind to
manage his own war: or, as say the
cock fighters, heel and handle him
self. Taft, gloom in his heart and
blackness on his brow, will remain
in Washington, where his late
flights about the country have left
him plenty In the Presidential sense
to do.
Difficult to Switch Delegates.
The task of transferring the Taft
strength to LaFollette is felt to be a
ticklish one. Those recent orders
to the Ohio people, in the name OF
Taft, to fight to the last ditch
and, as well, similar EXAMINATIONS t.
Taft delegations in the South, are
intended to hold the Taft delegate
together until the transfer can be
made. 1t will, as stated, be tick
lish job. Two-thirds OF Tatt's
hoping, oftce-hoding type Of pa
triot, moved not by principles but
in interest such as are actuate
only by mad ambition to be for
and with the winner, most of Taft,
delegates are with Taft, like 81
many animals in cages, and art
yearning hungrily to get out an,
escape across to Roosevelt.
That condition Of uneasiness ant
uncertainty is what makes tn,
transfer Of Tafts delegates to La
Toilette so difficult. 1t is feared
that, during the process of moving
them from the Taft cage to the La
Toilette cage, many will dodge be
tween &the legs of the Cranes an
McKinleys and run away to the enc
my. The Taft people, as this |
written, are writing and wirin
hither and yon in an earnest effor
