A FAMOUS SUBMARINE.

sidersd . Marvel.

In Its Day 10 OIabIo Marin was Son'
sidersd . Marvel.
LIE Diable Marin the Sea DeviD was
one of the most famous of the nine
teenth century submarines. 1t was
the invention Of Wilhelm Bauer, who
launched 1t in 1856.
This vessel was built Of iron. She
was fifty-two feet long, twelve feet
wide and eleven feet deep and shaped
somewhat like dolphin. Her sides
were six-tenths Of an inch thick and
could resist the pressure Of $50 foot
column Of water.
The motive power was provided by
screw, which was operated by
treadmill, and the up or down motion
was achieved by shifting water in Ion
gitudinal tanks by means Of pistons.
At the bow was bomb or torpedo
containing fifty pounds of powder, and
near it were two heavy india rubber
gloves, by means Of which a man in
side the vessel could reach out and
fasten the bomb to the bottom or side
Of ship. To purify the air Bauer ar
ranged long pipes, which were quite
effective in revivifying the stale air
for a short time.
The Russian government supplied
him with a crew Of eighteen men, who
were to make trial trip with him,
but on his first descent they were so
alarmed as to be useless, and when
the Diable Marin rose again to the sur
face they cried, praise be to God!'
When his men were more accustom-
ed to the work Bauer executed many
wonderful maneuvers and on one occa-
sion stayed under water while he
wrote letters to his mother, King Max
imilian Of Bavaria and the Grand Duke
Constantine.-Bosto Globe.

SEES HIS FIRST PRESIDENT.
Toll Keeper Shakes Hands With Wood
row Wilson.


Cornish, N. H.-Being president OF
the United States does not entitle
Woodrow Wilson to cross the Cheshire
toll bridge over the Connecticut river,
near Claremont, n. H., without pay
ing the regular fee Of 10 cents. He
found that out recently.
Mr.. Wilson on his vacation here has
motored across this toll bridge per-
haps score of times and always with
out being recognized by the seventy
four-year-old toll keeper. Each time he
has leaned down from his seat beside
the chauffeur and paid the Is cents
from his own pocket
A few days ago the president reach
ed into his pocket for the right change
as soon as the car slowed up, but he
found that at last the aged keeper had
recognized him as the country's chief
executive. Instead of the accustomed
Fifteen cents, please" Mr.. Wilson
was greeted with
"Are you the president of the United
States?'
Mr.. Wilson smilingly acknowledged
his identity.
81 never saw a president before"
said the keeper, land would like to
shake hands"
They shook hands, the keeper col
lected his fee and the presidential au'
tomobile speeded on back to Harlaken-
den, the summer White House.

WHY Do Seals Swallow Stones?

No nature student seems yet to have
discovered for what reason seals swal.
low stones, though the fact is well
established one. Certainly the stones
are not taken In for ballast, for the
empty seals keep down as easily as the
Others They are not swallowed for
the purpose of grinding up food. for
they are found in the stomachs of
nursing pups. They are not taken In
with the food because they are found
in the stonachs of both young seals
and in those that live in the open sea
and feed on squid. Yet 1t Is evident
that these things are not swallowed
haphazard. ~ut are selected with con
siderable care from the articles strewn
along the shore. and that a preference
is exhibited for rounded objects This
Is ghown by the fact that, as rule.
only articles of one kind are found In
any one seal's stomach.

 CF COAST MAN
 IS A MYSTERY
MIST TERiOUS DISAPPEARING ON COAST BATTLES
 OFFICIALS.

JUNEAU. Nov. No satisiac- tory clew has been discovered cen cerning the mysterious disappear ance last Monday of William Chris tie, an amalgamator at the Tread well mine. Search has been made for him everywhere and the only evidence found, which is circun stantial, leads the officers to be lieve that the missing man was kidnapped, Whether the man is alive or not is matter of conjec ture
 Those who were with Christie at the time state that a man calling simself Miller. a4d claiming to be a deputy marshA. served a sup poena on Christie last Monday, call ing the latter to attendance in court at Juneau He told Christie that he had a gasoline boat and that he could go with him in it back to Juneau. And Christie has not been seen since.
 The officers engaged in the search for the missing man have discover- ed that the boat which took him away from Treadwell has been iden- tified as the property of Edward krauz of Petersburg, Krauz has not yet been apprehended on the charge, but he Is under the strlctest surveillance
 The reason leading to the belief that KrauZ knows something as to the whereabouts of Christie is that Krauzs boat cannot be found. He is therefore believed to be the man who posed as Miller"
 Christie was married about a month ago to Mrs Deskus, Of Douglas, who had been d widow for year. It has been discovered that Krauz was familiar with Mrs Christie before the death of her first husband, which is another fact that points to the belief that Krauz has done away with Christie Mrs Christie scouts the generally ac- "epted theory that Krauz is guilty on account of jealousy or other wiSe. stating that he was a great friend of her husbands, and that he never paid court to her after she was widowed.
 The local lodge of Scottish Rite Masons of which Christie is mem Der, has offered a reward of $500 for the arrest of Miller" The local federal officials believe that krauz and Miller are one and the same person, excepting for. the fact that the only description of Miller op- tainable does not fit Krauz

Say President
 Is Revengeful

BERLIN, Nov. 7.-The Morgenpos+ (Morning Post), of this city, this morning editorially condemns Presi- dent Wilson's attitude toward Ger lnan-Americans, expressed Thursday night in his speech before the Man hattan club, of New York. It says that when the President spoke of "hyphenated" Americans, he meant Americans of German birth or lin aa e. The reason given in the edi torial for the speech denunciatory to German Americans is that Presi- dent Wilson wishes revenge for the Democratic defeat at the polls on Tuesday, being of the opinion that the German citizens of this country were responsible for 1t.
