ANYTHING TO PLEASE A LADY
Manifold Troubles Of a Militia Colonel
Who Aimed to Please All
He Knew.

Lady Hester Lucy Stanhope,
when staying at Walmer castle in
lSO4, quite unwittingly accom-
plished the feat of changing the UNI
form Of regiment of the county
militia. The anecdote. which illus
rates a curious streak of vanity in
old-tlme army officers, appears in an
account of Lady Stanhope's life by
Mr.. Frank Hamel.
somebody asked me before great
many officers what ! thought of
hem, said Lady Stanhope, and |
said that they looked like 30 many
.lnned harlequins. One day, soon
after, was riding through Walmer
village, when who should pop out

portions of the vessel where water and
fire may imperl life. are far in advance
of the practices of any nation In The
world In fact. the convention formulated
for the first time legislative rules on this
most important subject
In the opinion of the highest technical
experts the convention rules when adopt
ed and put into effect will make the hulis
of ships ~ per cent safer in the event oil
collision than they are today.
The system of subdivision of hulls
adopted to keep the ship afioat is car
ried by means of fireproof bulkheads into
the upper parts of the ship so rs to be-
come also efficient means for preventing
the spread of fire and thus lessening the
danger from this most terrible peril Of
the sea.
The convention thus aimed III the first
place to render tho ship itself as safe as
possible In the second place it provided
a system of intercommunication between
the ships on so comprehensive scale as
to reduce to the minimum the chance of
Il vessel going down before the arrival
Of succnr. All vessels carrying fifty or
more persons are required under these
rules to be equipped with wireless APP
paratus with a range of at least ono hum
dred miles by day or night.
This requirement is substantially the
same as the law of the United States at
present. BY international cooperation
however. an additional result was OBJ
tanned which. of course. neither Congress
nor any other one national parliament
could effect All ships crossing the ATTAIN
tit. or Pacific equipped with wireless are
required to maintain a continuous watch,
so it is practically impossible for vessel
in distress to fail TO receive assistance.
Furthermore it is made the duty of every

vessel sending the distress call.

more danger in this modern age thah

1T is a mistake to believe that travel
on the water is more perilous than travel
by rail or travel through the streets OF
cities. Statistics do not justify such a be-
lief. The opinion 10 the contrary is due
TO the fact that a relatively small pro-
portion Of our population travels by water,
and accidents at sea attract notice be-
cause the conditions which surround
them are unfamiliar and therefore note
worthy in the minds of the public.
For this reason the press of the coun-

There is no press agency connected with

1t is not easy, for that reason, to inter-

One finds him in a handsome summit
