new MARCHING SONG FOR
OUR ARMY IN FRAk E
"0ver the Sea to Germany" Was
Composed by Men on the
Way Over.

The American troops in France ha We
a new marching song-"Over the Sea
to Germany"
The music was composed by Clar-
ence Gridley, a son OF the famous Cap
tain Gridley Of Manila Bay, and the
words We're written on the way over
by John Erb, commissary clerk on one
of the transports. The chorus goes:
Goodby, dear old Yankee land. Hello,
France!
We've sailed across the ocean to make the
Germans dance.
They nave tried to rule the world with
military stuff,
But we come from a country that never
takes a bluff.
The music Is reminiscent of Tip
perary," "a Hot Time In the Old Town
Tonight" and the 'Doxology," but it
will do.
1t has a great march rhythm and
makes a great hit with the French as
the regiments swing past.

t1nuing till the evening OF Oct. IA all
sorts of spectacular things are going to
take place to celebrate the completion

such a way that the water can fall di-
rectly to the river below. The "cata-
ract'' will be illuminated in the ven
ing. River traffic will be suspended
temporarily if necessary.
The ceremony of delivering the wa
ter to the city will take place at the
city hall on Columbus day. Mayor
Mitchell will preside, and former Mayor
Mcclellan, who broke ground for the
aqueduct ten years ago, will be the
guest Of honor. A fountain designed
by MaeMonnies and Franklin Hast
ings, which is the gift of Mrs. Angelina
Crane, will be unveiled at the city hall
plaza. A cornerstone of another foun-
tain In Central park will be laid.
On the following days there will be
parades, dinners, pageants and musical
festivals In churches and schools.

Sunk in Lake Huron In 1865.
Many Skeletons In Hold

After lying for more than half a cen.

the bottom of Lake Huron off Thunder
Bay island, south and east of Alpena
the treasure stored In the hold of the
steamer Pewabic, sunk Aug. 8, 1865
in waters far beyond the depth al
which the diver hitherto has been able
to work, is now being brought to the
surface safely and without trouble
says the Detroit Free Press.
With the raising of a clam" load
of relics from the long sunken steamer
came at nee the breaking of a worlds
record in deep sea salvage, the fruition
of the three years efforts of a small
party of Toledoans and Detroiters to
prove deep sea salvage possible and

treading on the border land Of inland

Divers Find Skeletons.

1t is a fact that Il of the passen-
gers, who was saved. offered a reward
of $1,000 for the recovery of his trunk
His name has been long since forgot
ten.
In the hold of the vessel divers found
a number of skeletons.
The successful attack upon the most
powerful Of all barriers to deep sea
work water pressure has been
brought about by the "armored diving
suit" constructed on novel lines by B
F. Leavitt of Toledo. Leavitt made
his "suit" more than a divers suit.
1t is in reality almost a Submarine
Constructed of phosphor bronze, it car
ries its W air supply, condensed,
sufficient for a four hour stay under
water. What this means in divers
work may be best understood by eX-
planning that at seventy-five feet, the
limit for practical work by the pres.
ent day diver, a human being can
stand the pressure for about fifteen
minutes.
Up on Thunder bay the men going
down to the Pewabic descend nearly
three times the hitherto practical depth
and remain four hours. At seventy
five feet the diver heretofore could
move about very little. In the new
armored incasement the diver car
scarcely move at se~venty-fve feet
The pressure is insufficient to counter
balance the great weight of his suit.
At $50 feet he begins to move freely.
Projecting from the Leavitt suit and
working in water tight sockets are two
steel fingers, manipulated by the hand,
which is free in the big sleeve, com
posed of flexible copper bands covered

Lives Given In Search.

For the Pewabic Is a treasure ship
in truth. Men have given their lives
to reach her treasure In vain. For.
tunes have been wasted in the efforts
to reach the prize cargo $50 feet under
the surface of the water. Now her
treasure-pure copper-is coming up.
Some of it passed Detroit recently on
the way to Toledo, together with a
mass of other relics from the long lost
vessel.
In the hold of the Pewabic lie nearly
300 tons of copper, worth 100000 or
more at the present market. Besides
the copper, there are several hundred
tons of pig iron. What else Of value
lies beneath Thunder bay waters is
conjectural. There was a story that
there was $4,000 or $40,O of specie
in the boats express safe. but this is
denied by Captain George P. Mckay
of Cleveland, now treasurer of the
Lake Carriers association, who was
master of the vessel when she sank.
There is also a story of a belt owned
by a woman passenger, which vas
said to contain a large diamond and q
large sum of money.
