Thus far the new republic includes
only the city of Koritza with q popu-

publican ideas n the parliamentary
regime, n considerable unsupported
~oratOr1cal talent has been discovered
in this land where powder only has
talked heretofore.
The idea OF forming the Skipetar re-
public is due to Colonel Descoins, COM
handing the French forces stationed
here. When he assumed command OF
the post he called all the notables Of
the town together and talked to them
in this vein:
"Skipetars. my friends, until Deem

all intrigues and occupy yourselves
with your own self government. French
troops are here to defend the terri

This plain talk appealed to tho
Skipetars. who at once formed a re-
public with a parliament of IA men,

office Is a fortnight.
Prosperity has come in with. the re-

authorities. the Skipetar government is
preparing to develop copper and iron

Lights on LIE eouys.

Submarine warfare has resulted in
numerous improvements in life pre-.
servers and life buoys. The passengers
on any ship that sails the Atlantic to-
day are likely to find themselves bob.
bling about in the icy waters with no
support but a cork jacket.
Some time ago a number of sailors
on a torpedoed ship saved their lives
at night by signaling to the rescuers
with little electric fash lamps. This
principle has now been Incorporated
into the latest life buoy by an attach
ment which carries electric flash lamps
as a part of its equipment. The lamps
burn steadily as soon as the buoy hits
the water, and serve to indicate the
