Taking Movies at Bottom of the Sea

Taking Movies at Bottom of the Sea
 Down at the bottom of Nassau har- Dor, in the Bahamas. the camera man for one of the big film producing com panies is photographing scenes that none but few divers has ever seen, but which will soon be familiar to movie audiences al over the world, says Popular Mechanics. The wonderful coral reefs and luxuriant vegetation of the semitropical sea gardens" may furnish the background for submarine thrill 1ers," beside which the popular cow boy dramas will seem tame and unin- teresting. Even without a specially pre- pared and staged photoplay, these bot tom -of-the-sea films are of absorbing interest Curious tropical fishes, swim ming frely and without restraint; Ba- hama "black boys" diving for pe.anies sunken relics of sea tragedies of long ago-these are among the scenes that have already been filmed" Some of these first movies ever made on the floor of the ocean, together with the apparatus used in making them. are shown in a number of remarkable illus trations appearing in the July Popular Mechanics Magazine.
 The harbor of Nassau, New Provi- dence Island, was selected for the first underwater motion picture work large " because of the remark able clarity of the water. The bottom, of coral sand, Is never muddy. but instead reflects the brilliant sunlight, producing conditions under which photographs can be made wlth exposures almost as brief as in the open air--a highly important re- qulrement for the movies. Photographs made at S5 feet depth, of divers plung- ing swiftly through the water, require an exposure of only HOO of a second on a bright day. Nor is it necessary to bring the camera up close to the ob- Ject photographed, even at such a depth. One of the interesting objects found by the camera when the first pictures were made was the wreck of ship that had been sunk 50 years before
 This latest development in photog- raphy Is further discussed by H. H. Windsor in an editorial, in which he suggests the important and startling usages which may result.

 Just before the general election of 1893, he was invited to stand by the mine workers and glass workers of Carmaux. He accepted. He had spent the previous four years in study and he now appeared as an out-and-out socialist. AS result of that election the socialists made their first appearance at the Palais Bourbon. In this group, numbering about 50, but comprising only about half that number

 once heard Juares speaking to an audience of perhaps 1000 people In that Immense hall he seemed a different man rom the one I knew in the Chamber of Deputies. His voice had the power of great organ, with endless changes nf tone and expression. with modula tjons without limit, and with a sustained em- phasis and climax that seemed to me as extraordinary as anything I had ever heard His finished oration had the roundness and perfection of a poem. On another occasion l heard him speaking to the men of the street His power in this instance was again of quite a differ ent character. He became a mob orator equal to John Burns in his best days The influence he exercised over his au dlence was such that if he had desired to lead this mob of men to storm the streets or Paris l think not one would nave Tailed to follow him.
 To this man then many observers feel that much of the immediate future or trance Is entrusted.

Testing Cigars

we'll known cigar expert has been dispelling some popular misconceptions anent the fragrant weed, says Tit-Bits He alluded to the belief that the winter the ash and the longer it holds on the better the cigar. This is quite wrong. he pointed out. The length of the ash depends on the size of the pieces used in the filler, and clear steel-Erey ash denotes the best Havana.
 Then, again, nearly every man will reject a spotted cigar, but the spots mean absolutely nothing as regards quality.
 Most men think they can tell a cigar by squeezing it or smelling. Neither test is the slightest good. And every smoker believes that oclor denotes strength-that a dark wrapper denotes strong cigar, a light one a mild cigar. The color has nothing whatever to do with the strength.
 As matter of fact, for the ayerara smoker there are practically no out ward indications of the quality of as cigar. The only test for the nonexpertl is in smoking It.

he was rightly or wrongly condemned is none of our business. Let us get on with our work of forcing the social revolution
 But this obvious shirking of the die tates of ones conscience did not appeal to Jaures. His brand of socialism, he said, touched life at every point and any work that would hasten the triumph of right and truth was his to do. He plunged with characteristic energy into the Dreyfus maelstrom. He carried his party with him and formed temporary bloc with the republicans together they carried the day.

 An early crisis in the career of Jaures came with the Dreyfus affair. It was test not only of the man, but of his views and from the fire both emerged trium- rhantly. Many of Jaures' socialist follow esr were in favor of holding aloof from the affair which shook France to its very base. What had socialism to do with Dreyfus? asked these followers. Whether

 West Virginia, through it's governor, established military tribunal in defiance of a constitution which clearly declares that no such tribunal should ever be established in the state, and this tribunal denies the writ of habeas corpus in de- fiance of constitution which expressly forbids that 1t should ever be denied. The practical executive saw that action was necessary to re-establish order, and, having reached that conclusion, he con- cluded that it was advisable to suspend the constitution so far as the striking miners were concerned, and the highest court of West Virginia sustained him in what he did
 Military Power Challenged
 As conservative an authority as ex- Chief Justice Cullen of the New York court of appeals has characterized these decisions in language which judge rarely uses concerning decisions Of the highest court of another state He declared in an address before the New York State Bar association in January of this year:
 These decisions exalt the military power beyond any height hitherto known in this country. They assert the power of the military at the uncontrolled dis cretion of single man to dispose of tho life and liberty of any person within the state, not by way of detention till the termination of an instruction nor where life is taken in the actual clash of arms, but purely as a punishment for acts which may not be offenses at all by the law, or if offenses. subject to slight penalties"
 If the commission on industrial relations can so far assist us by getting us the actual facts. so that we may judge whether in it's fundamentals the bill of rights Is geing disregarded in its applica- tion to strikers in industrial disputes, 1t will aid conservative body of opinion to crystalline itself and make it's opinion felt
 It Is true conservatism to regard the bill of rights as something fundamental as belonging to all of us, which cannot exist at all if 1t Is denied to one class and preserved only to a more prosperous class which economically needs 1t least. There are many of us who have no sym pathy whatever with the class of agitators who are today shouting for free speech. believing them to be insincere and law less in their purposes The mere fact that we do not sympathize with them Is no reason why we should permit any of the Fundamental guaranteea of citisenr

 Our constitutions, both state and na- tional of course, guarantee to everyone freedom of speech, the right of assembly, the right to the writ of habeas corpus, freedom of the press, and the like, all of which are ancient liberties of the Eng fish people, considered by our forefathers absolutely essential to an American de- mocracy.
 Are Fundamental Rights Impractical
 In all the recent industrial disturbances, including those in Lawrence, in West Virginia, in Paterson, in Colorado, things have been done which as given in the press at the time, would indicate that the bill of rights, which includes all these constitutional liberties to which have referred, was not considered practical No conservative jublc oprnIon has as yet been aroused since these violations (if they have been such) of the bill of rights nave dppHeu only 10 u1ScOntenteu poor people in the course of industrial disturb ances.
 Most of the court decisions by which these constitutional rights seem to have been denied have been made by judges in petty courts, whose judicial opinions as such are quite negligible from the standpoint of the law but far from neg ligible from the standpoint of the work ing people affected by them.
 Take, for example, the Paterson decision by the local magistrate in the Scott case. If it had been affirmed in the supreme court of New Jersey, the liberty of the press would have been a dead letter in New Jersey Similar decisions have been made by the police courts in Massa- chusetts and in our own state on other branches of the bill of rights.

Now Studying Insects.

I'VE have several lines of work now
going on in regard to the effect of in
sects upon the health of man and ami
mails We wish in the first place to
complete the records of longevity of
the cattle ticks. Then, as to stable
flies, this insect has been shown to be
instrumental in the carriage of in
fantile paralysis. We also expect to
undertake series of malarial fever
studies and the Economies of malarial
mosquitoes, in order to provide rene
| dies for the requirements of planta-
ia where malaria is so rife, the idea
being to find out what species of mos
quito carry malaria in those districts,
exactly how they breed, what can be
done in the way of protecting people
from their bites, and what can be done
to destroy the mosquitoes in their
breeding places. The alfalfa weevil is
a serious problem in Utah and has
spread to Wyoming and other neigh
boring states. AS is always done in a
case of this kind the bureau of ento-
mOlogy has secured the world for
parasites to attack the new enemy |
Two such have been imported, one
from Italy and another from southern
France. The Alfalfa weevil FORUM
ately cannot fly but it gets into freight
cars along the track, into bales of hay :.
for shipment and seems to know by |
instinct how to secure free transpor-
tation.
Difficult to Deal With.
The boil weevil, which is capable
of extended flights, is much more diff
ficult to deal with. Much has been
done to control it by burning cotton
stalks after the crop has been picked
and by introducing parasites. DR.. w.
