To Harness the Tides,

The tides are about to be tied down
to labor. At Wolfville, Nova Scotia.
q development company has made q
survey on the water of the Bay of
Fundy with a view of developing a
tidewater project at Cape Split An
American expert on hydraulic produc-
tior of electricity IS the scientific
guide of that expedition. AS Ameri-
cans are too proud to develop such
tide waters as they have for power, it
may be expected that this man on
foreign tide may get results TO wake
us up in this country, says the Uneeda
Telegram. The tides of the Bay of
Fundy are as famous for their ups
and downs as the revolutions of Mex
leo, If not more so. A current motor
recently experimental with in the Gas
pereau river was u feet long and 21h
feet high, and is reported to have
developed power as the tide rose
which reached a maximum of two
horse power by the time the machine
was submerged. The later expert
ments at Cape Split are said to have
shown that motor developing 80 horse
power in tide current which ran nine
miles an hour. AS the machine is
made like a crab, it takes advantage
of the tide going out as well as COM
ing in.

Safety First.

The greatest danger to operators
comes from cutting dies These can
usually be properly guarded by strip
pers which are made 50 thin at the bot
tom edge as not to obstruct a view of
the location of the punch, and vet
which come down almost to the top Of
the sheet of metal being worked. not
leaving room enough for the fingers TO
enter. These shippers should reach So
high that the punch can not rise beyond
the top. This remedy, although Simple
IS often neglected, and people go on los
ing fingers. The enforcement Of an
absolute rule, never to put fingers
between the dies, except when a
press is stationary, without the wheel
running and with the ram so blocked
that it cannot fall, would of course pre-.
vent the mutilation of people s hands
but IT is a very difficult rule to enforce
A desire for large production will often
tempt the worker to feed small articles
into dies while the press is running con.

only by an absolute synchronism OF

MRS. BOISSEVAIN
SUFFRAGE LEADER
Died in Los Angeles Hospital as Re
suit of Overwork in Last Po-
htical Campaign.

LOS ANGELES, Cal, Nov. 27.-Mrs
lnez Milhollsnd Boissevain, 80, died in a
/ hospital here last night after an illness of
/ 10 weeks. She broke down as a result of
continuous speaking in the political cam
paign.
As a student in Vassar college, 1869,
although known as the college beauty, and
possessed of wealth and position, she
stunned society as such, and shocked the
more conservative college opinion by her
radical social views, She also made a
name for herself as an athlete, being cap
tain of her class hockey team, which won
the college championship, and a member
of the 1909 track team, at which time she
established new record for the college in
the eght-pound shotput at 81 feet 8 rs
inches
Aside from her college activities, she
worked among the poor children in the
city of Poughkeepsie, and was appointed
court probation officer. During her first
college vacation she visited London and
there joined the Pankhurst suffragettes
making several speeches and being once
arrested.
During the 1909 presidential campaign
she won new fame as the girl who broke
up the Taft parade While the parade
was being held in New York city, she
stationed herself in a window and shouted
Votes for Women" through a. mega
phone. Some of the marchers fell out OF
the parade and gathered around her to
hear her make speech for the suffrage
cause
Following her graduation from Vassai
college, she attempted to enter Harvard
law school, but this permission was denied
her on the ground that it was not co
educational institution,
Miss Milholland finally received her de
uee in law at the New York University
Law School in 1912, and during this time
n she was, active as "a suffrage worker anC
speaker and organizer Of woman's parades
l-being featured in them both in New York
Washington, d. C., and elsewhere as ''the
most beautiful sutfragette" At election
time she was always a watcher at the poll:
and was among the women who went tc
I Albany to demand of the legislature wo
mans rights to vote She began the prac
tice of law in lgI2.
n In July, 1913, she married by a civil
ceremony in London, Eugen Boissevain, q
wealthy Hollander, to whom she had beer
introduced by William Marconi, inventor
of wireless telegraphy She returned t
this country and continued her practice o
law and suffrage activities. In 1919 she
was denied permission to make a suffrage
speech at the 5oth anniversary ceremonc,
of Nassar college. Later the same veal
she went to Italy as a war correspondent
but was forced to leave Italy by tn,
authorities there because OF her pacifs
writings.
In 1916 she went as a delegate on tn,
Ford peace ship, but left the party a

ployed by the managers are repugnant t.

THIS RABBIT WAS A KICKER
Monkey in New York Zoo Monkeys"
With Little Animal and Gets Un-
expected Jolt on Jaw.

There is a monkey in the Central park
zoo which cannot be convinced there
is luck in rabbits hind foot. He
is sure, though, that said rabbits foot
has a kick like a string of cocktails
on an empty stomach.
From Billy Snyder's hospital, where
the monkey is recuperating from mon
keying with big white rabbit, the
word went out that the patient was
as we'll as might be expected.
The monkey is the smallest Of two
that were so pindling they couldn't
hold their own in the big monkey cage,
and were sent to make up a happy
family in cage with 20 rabbits and
guinea pigs. In these pacifist surround
ings he felt his OatS-Or peanutS-and
started to pick on the big white rab-
bit.
The latter. being an American rab-
bit, stood lot of picking, ear tweak-
ing, fur pulling and other indignities.
Finally, however, the monkey tried to
steal from under the rabbits wiggling
nose a particularly dainty bit of let
tuce. The rabbits pink eyes went
red. "Oh, my fur and whiskers," he
| exploded, like Alice's rabbit, and out
went the deadly rabbits foot. There
| was thud as it struck the simian jaw,
Il squeak of pain and one of triumph,
and then all that remained of this
| monkeys tale was a much subdued
monkey and an otherwise happy, happy
| family in the little cage.

Jewish Soldiers Find David,s Shield

Sc~fSH S0ioicFS FtHO bdEiQ'S SHelo.
Lieutenant Colonel J. 81. Patterson's
Jewish fighting unit-the Zion Mule
Corps-is unique since the days of
the Maccabees. 1t was composed
chiefly of Russian refugee Jews, who
fled from Egypt to Palestine to es-
cape the terror of the Turk. There
they were armed with excellent
rifles, bayonets and ammunition cap
tured from the Turks when they
made their futile attack on the Suez
Canal. The strength of the corps
was about 500, and the pack mules
for transport work-whose eccen-
tricities are at the bottom of many
a famous tale, numbered 750. The
corps badge was the "Magin David
an exact reproduction of the shield
David used when he went forth to
fight Goliath of Gath, and by a CO.
incidence which in older days might
well have passed for miracle" the
Zionists found the original at Sedd-
el-Bahr, Gallipoli. The colonel
writes:
while we were pulling down a
house and excavating the founda-
tons, we dug up slab of marble
with beautiful filigree design carved
round the outer edge of it, and in the
center, strange to say, was the shield
of David! The stone must have been
very, very old, and how it got there
is a mystery. Perhaps it may have
been taken from Solomons Temple
in Jerusalem. '-Cincinnati Enquirer
