water is denser than air, the tap of
this bell travels further under the
sea than on the surface. So, by APP
plying a contrivance, something like
the one telephone girls wear, to their
ears these officers tap their bells and
signal to each other for ten miles an
der the sea! Thus they direct move
ments and avoid collisions.
Lieut.. Chew explained to me some
devices which enable the crew to
leave the vessels one at a time and
rise to the surface in case something
goes wrong, but l was just as we'll
satisfied that we did not have occa-
sion to resort to it. 1t is a splendid
work, one that calls for daring and
initiative. and offers a great field for
officers who have the right kind Of
timber in them.
AS we came back to San Diego bay
we rose to the surface. Long stream
ers of kelp weed hung from the lit
tie turret, trailing in the water like
the dripping beard of Neptune. Open
ing the manhole we climbed out and
stood in the sunlight on the little
steel deck as we moved i'm among the
vessels in the harbor and up to the
dock. Thus ended the eventful
cruise.

GOPHER HUNT


Webster, April 17.-The annual
gopher hunt is on in Day and sew
eral other counties of South Dakota.
which during April and May of each
year pay a bounty for the killing of
these animals, which, If left unmo-
Tested prove very destructive to crops.
Many thousands of dollars worth of
damage would be done by the pests If
efforts were not made to annihilate
them. Fol- all gophers killed in Day
county during this month and next
the county commissioners will pay n
bounty of 2 cents each for the COM
mon gophers and 5 cents each for
pocket gophers. Scores of men and
boys are deyoting their spare time to
hunting the animals, and at the end
of the 6O-day period many individual
hunters will receive large sums in
bounties. 1t is believed that If the
warfare is continued for a few years
the pests will be annihilated.

time and the arrival of the gun is
now awaited. This will be set on the
top of little Perico Island. which Is
the center of the three fortified ISL
ands at the Pacific end.

HOW LONDON SCOTTISH
WON LAURELS IN WAR.
Had to Be Rescued After "Grand
Stand" Rush, Officer Asserts.

No little concern is being caused In
England by whispers of what is said to
be the true story of the charge of the
London Scottish on the German
trenches at Ypres In Belgium.
This corps, which wears kits, is the
pride of London. 1t is the richest and
most exclusive regiment of the old vol
unteers that were formed into the ter
ritorials after the Boer war, and 1T was
given the distinction Of being the first
of the civilian units Of the British army
to be sent into action.
Sir John French spoke of their gal
liant conduct in his dispatches. An Of
hcer who assisted in their rescue tells
the following story:
1.-THE London Scottish received or
ders to take n trench facing the posi-
ton which they were occupying.
'The charge was made. A few OF
the London Scottish fell, but the regi-
ment swept VIGOROUSLY on to the Ger
man trench and put the Germans there
to rout.
Instead Of holding the trench they
captured, as ordered to do, they went
for the next one, not realizing that they
had taken only one end of the first
trench. AS soon as they rushed on the
Germans In the other section of this
trench moved into the captured part
and opened a murderous fire from be
hind. The territorials were thus caught
between two fires. Their 'grandstand'
play brought them face to face with
humiliation.
AT this juncture the Camerons and
the Argyll and Sutherland ~highlanders
were ordered to the rescue, and a
bloody fight took place. The Camerons
lost more men i'm that one action than
In any other in the war. If yon ask
a member Of that regiment what he
thinks of the London Scottish you will
be lucky If you escape with a drub-
bling"

bed the postofice at Scotland of
5000 stamps of various denomfna-
tions and SOS in silver, was sen
fenced to a term of three years and
six months in the federal p~enitentiary
at Fort LeavenwoTth, Kan, on each
of three counts. Chapman already

worth prison and three terms in the

Senate Bill 2O2 Was Not Properly
Handled.

Pierre, April 17.-Does a bill be-
come q law when the printed journal
fails TO show any roll call for or men
ton of final passage. and the bill
clerks record says ii was indefinitely
postponed, and still a later page in
the journal shows that 1t was correct
ly engrossed and enrolled and signed
by the speaker, and later given to the
governor and there properly signed
and filed with the secretary of state.
This has happened to senate bill
No. 202, which is a bill prohibiting
more than 10 per cent in the aggre-
gate for interest and commissions to
be charged upon any real estate loans
introduced by John G. Stoner of Per-
kins county. The bill passed the SEN
ate in good order and the house jour
nal of February rs shows first and
second readings in the house. The
bill clerks record of March 5 shows
the bill was indefinitely postponed,
but the house journal record of
March 5 has no mention of any final
disposition of the bill. However, at
page 1915 of the journal of the house
of March 5 is shown the report that
it has been correctly engrossed and
enrolled, and the same journal. at
page 1925. shows hat it was signed
by the speaker. The bill was given
to the governor and signed by him.
The question is whether the rec
ords showing NO mention of final
passage of the senate bill i'm the
house. is defective as a law of South
Dakota. The senate journal of March
5 contains a message from the house
saying the bill had passed the house
without change.

Simple Experiment Saves Bandsman
Insane THROUGH Shell.

Bandsman \. G.. Reynolds Of the
British Second Wiltshire regiment was
buried in a trench ut Ypres by the
bursting of a shell. After thirteen
hours his comrades dug him out, but
his mind was gone.
After many medical experiments had
failed Il sheet of music was placed on
his bed. After a few days Reynolds
could read the notes quite correctly.
He read the music some days before
he could understand the ordinary print
ing Of the title page, but at last his
mind was completely restored.
