portaroe IN This Country.
There exists in The archives of one
of the Oldest among the cotton spin
ming families in northern New Jersey
long letter from a banker of New
York addressed to Alexander Hamilton
when be was secretary Of the treasury.
The banker had heard that Hamilton
purposed to build cotton mill at Pat
erson, n. J. This project the banker
condemned and stated that it was the
opinion of all the merchants in New
York whom he knew that not in a hun
dred years would the cotton milling
business in the United States employ
200.
Hamilton went ahead and planned
the industrial town he named Paterson
and also planned and financed a COM
pany for developing a water power and
for financing corporations thereat.
Hamiltons original company known
as the Society For Useful Manufac-
lures, exists to this day at Paterson.
The agent whom Hamilton sent to
England to buy cotton mill machinery
was instructed to have it knocked
down" and placed in small boxes that
were to be marked bibles For the
Moravians Of Pennsylvania" 1t was
at that time against the laws Of Eng
land to ship any kind of industrial ma
chinery out of the kingdom Hamil-
tons brother and two of his agents
were caught trying to ship the cotton
mill machinery to Paterson, and they
were imprisoned for ten months.-Cot-

Sinking and Rising Depend oTS the
Water In The Lungs. 81
A group Of Old salts at Sailors Snug
fIarbor were discussing the popular
belief that a drowning person must
come to the surface oil the water fhree
times before he can possibly droWh.
well" said Captain Tom Mdigan.
"there is little ground for that sHppo-
sition. The truth is, drowning9ier-
son may sink the first time, never TO
rise again. or he may as in the sma-
iority Of cases, rise three times before
he sinks forever.
ut all depends on the quantity Of
water that he swallows when he sinks
and the size of his lungs. The hpman
body in life naturally floats while the
lungs are inflated. So long as one
keeps his head above the water he can
float with very little effort
But as soon as the person sinks he
gulps down a lot of water. If after
he has swallowed this water he has
any air left in bis lungs he will m
doubtedly rise again and will continue
to sink and rise until all the airs has
been worked out Of his lungs.
in most cases the frightened victim
swallows enough water when he sinks
the first time to leave him exhausted,
but as there is still afr left in the lungs
he soon finds himself on the surfaee
again. Each time he sinks, however
the supply of air in his lungs grows
less until ultimately there is nothing
left to support him, when he will
drown" New York Herald.
