SINKING SHIPS.
II Completely Submerged They Must
Go to the Bottom.

II Completely Submerged They Must
Go to the Bottom.
Answering correspondent who
writes: II am very anxious to find out
whether q ship will sink II the bottom
e the ocean Is at great depth or, at
least, at such depth that the weight Of
the water would be greater than the
weight Of the ship. It is the opinion
Of many that at certain depth the
ship would remain suspended instead
of sinking to the bottom. Please ex-
plain the exact truth of the matter"
Edgar Lucien Larkin in the New York
American says:
"Any mass that will entirely sink
below the surface of the ocean will
sink to the bottom of any sea or ocean
on earth. This Is because water is al
most incompressible.
Enormous pressure in hydraulic
presses has been made upon distilled
and also upon sea water, and the d.
intuition of volume-that is. increase
Of density-is only OOOO044 for ocean
water for each atmosphere, l. e., each
addition of fifteen pounds to each
square inch. Then water soaked wood
would be increased in density by very
nearly the same amount.
"Hence If all Of the wood in wood
en- ship sinks below the surface 1t must
60 to the bottom. The question Of
reaching the bottom Of the ocean is de-
cided for any kind Of matter Of any
ship or boat by its behavior at the sur
face. II all of the material of the boat
sinks at all below the surface, then 1t
will fall to the bottom of any sea. there
being such slight increase in density
Of water at the bottom Of the deepest
ocean,"

Heiqht Of Waves.

Among the most trustworthy scien-
tific measurements of ocean waves are
those Of Lieutenant Paris of the
French navy. The highest waves
measured by him were in the Indian
ocean between the Cape Of Good Hope
and the island Of st. Paul. Thirty
waves measured during a northwest
gale there averaged twenty-nine and
one-half feet in height, and six of
them, following one another with
beautiful regularity. were thirty-seven
and one-half feet In height Some still
higher waves were seen. but not meas
ured. In moderate breeze the length
Of Q wave was found to be about
twenty-five times its height, but in u
gals only eighteen times. - London

THE BATTLE OF MARATHON.

And ths Mound Undss Which ths on
Grscian Heroes Rest.
A great Grecian landmark u the
boros, the mound erected over the
graves Of 1872 Athenians who fell In
the battle of Marathon, Aug. IL, 40
B. 9. The mound Is about forty feet
high and 300 yards in circumference.
Underneath the mound lie the heroes
who died in this most decisive victory
which prevented the Persians from in
vading Europe.
The battle had hardly begun when
the Persians in Immensely superior
force, doubtless ten to one. pulled
themselves together and by sheer mass
broke through the Greek center. But
this had been calculated upon before
hand. Miltiades employed strategy,
making his line weak at the center.
and allowed the Persians to break in.
Then, with his heavy masses at the
ends, he ground the Persian wings to
pieces and fell upon their center. The
most stubborn fighting, apart from the
battle at the ships, was probably at
this spot, half mile from the shore
Six thousand four hundred Persians
lay on this plain and along the shore.
while 1872 men of Marathon lay wrap
ped in glory on the field.
1t was long suspected that the he
rOes Of Marathon were buried under
the mound. but Mr. Stats, one of the
Greek ephori Of antiquities, studying
the plain, came to the conclusion that
the surface of the soil had been raised
by alluvial deposits eight to ten feet
above the level of 400 b. q. In 1890
he drove a trench with downward
slant into the center of the mound
and found the bones of the heroes
with their weapons beside Them

Won With Whips.

According to Herodotus, while the
Scythians were away on a long cam
paign their slaves took the opportunity
to rebel and seize all their masters
property. The latter on their return
promptly attacked them, but were con-
tnually defeated until at last one Of
them hit on the brilliant idea of attack
ing the slaves with whips only. That,
he said, would remind them of their
origin and SO cow them that they
would never dare to stand. The
Scythians followed his counsel, and II
fell out as he had predicted When
the slaves beheld their masters riding
down upon them flourishing the terri.

ONE MANS OPINIONS
BY N. D. COCHRAN.

why newspapers DegenerdLe.-AS
a rule newspapers like individuals be-
gin to degenerate when they become
successful. There are exceptions,
but the rule is that when man starts
out with little money to build up a
newspaper he has to make brains do
the work. He is radical, and appeals
to the masses; for he wants circula-
ton.
He works hard himself, and gets
along with as small staff as posi-
bic. When he gains public confidence
and circulation he begins to get adj
vertising. When he begins to make
money like most men he begins to
take life easier.
When he gets rich he joins clubs,
associates with other rich men, lets
others do the hard work, gets into
big home, buys an auto, eats too
much and generally gets into the
luxurious habits Of the rich.
His. newspaper begins to take on
his point of view He is gentler in
handling news and comment about
the men he is now associating with,
and he gets farther and farther
away from, and out! of sympathy
with, the average citizen especially
the worker.
The publishers point of view
changes. He sees things from the
money side. The atmosphere in
which he lives is the atmosphere that
influences the papers policy. He be-
comes more tolerant of the weak
nesses of the rich and less tolerant
of the weaknesses of the working
class.
He may be just as conscientious as
he was at the start-if he was con-
scientious at the start-but he sees
things from an entirely different
point of view.
But it is degeneracy just the same.
He isn't the man he was when life
wasn't so soft for him. He only likes
the working class theoretically; he

His paper, once successful, will
travel on it's shape long time. News
paper reading is a habit-a hard one
to break. The salvation Of some Of
the successful papers that have
grown rich, fat, lazy and reaction
airy is the news monopoly Of the As
ISOLATED Press in the morning field.
That keeps some papers going when
they should be dead.
1t is different in the evening news
paper field, and that field is growing.
Anybody can get the United Press
service, and it's a better service for
evening newspapers than the Asso-
ciated Press. 1t grants no exclusive
franchises.
That opens the field to radicals to
crowd the conservatives out when
they grow rich and lose their useful
ness. It saves the country from an
absolute monopoly in the distribution
of news to the people.

member reading not long ago an in

he would prove the innocence Of Leo

Frank from death.
Now the news comes from Atlanta
that Burns has failed to make good
his boast. Numerous witnesses
whose alleged afidavits were sub

have been repudiated by the wit
