Invents Method of
 Salvaging Vessels

A new device for sa1vaging sunken ships has been invented by Dr. Syl- vio Pellico Porteila of Rio de Janei- TO, Brazil, who claims that. it may be used to salvage ships sunk at al- most any depth where divers may reach them and that it is effective in Heating a wreck, no matter what its position on the sea floor.
 The, invention consists of a tender of special model, which is equipped with floats of waterproof material. These are neatly folded, but later, when inflated with air, they assume all sorts of shapes-para1lelopip spheres, cylinders, &c. They are car ried down by divers and attached to various portions of the sunken vessel, both within and without, still retaining their connection by means of hose with the tender ship. When all are properly fastened in place they are in Hated by air pressure from above, like the tries of an automobile. As they swell they are said to. gradually dis place the water within and about the wreck, and it is said that by their own buoyancy they foatit to the surface.

 No reports of a strike movement in labor centers outside Berlin have been received yet. A Kiel dispatch says that the radical anti-war party got control of the Greater Kiel so- cialist assembly and passed resolu- tions against voting war credits. An other side light comes from Munich, where a woman teacher was put on trial for "pacifist intrigue."s She was acquitted on the ground that she was demented from over strain.
 A strike has broken out among Polish munition workers in Warsaw, where Germany has been using Po- fish laborers to help supply the east! ern army. Ordinances of the Ger man military governor, which are re- published in the Posen Polish paper. threaten those refusing to work with a years imprisonment or transfer to a prison camp. The governor de- clares that no releases of favors for Polish prisoners of war will be grant, ed until the strike movement is checked.

MORE THAN 125,OOO EMPLOYES
 OF GERMAN FACTORIES STRIKE;
 IMPERIAL CASTLE UNDER GUARD

| Copenhagen, April 19-The number
 of strikers in Berlin is placed in even
 the semi-official report at 125,OOO and is distributed according to the Tageblatt, through machine works, some electrical establishments and parts of the munition plants. The latter statement is interesting in view of a dispatch from the official news
 bureau denying that the munition factories were affected. The Tage-
 blatt says. however. that the great
 intuition industry at Spandau has not been involved
 Reports in all the Berlin newspa- pers which have arrived here agree that the demonstrators were usually orderly, although roughs resorted to occasional window breaking in the Onter den Linden. the Friedrich and Le1ps1c strasses and other central thoroughfares. Soldiers as we'll as police were used in cordons thrown apout the Unter den. Linden and the imperial castle.
 Great crowds gathered in the neighborhood of the castle during the oay ana the temper of the crowds, particularly the women, is described as very bitter. The strikers denoun- ced the farmers, wholesalers and the government in equal measure for re- sponsipihfy for the food situation EVen socialist. leaders who opposed the strike made it evident to the au- thorities that a further cnrtai,ment of ratfons from any cause could not be borne.

Windsor castle is near the town of
Windsor, in Berkshire, England,
twenty-three miles from London.
Windsor is one of the ancient towns
of England, dating from the early
middle ages. The castle was erect
ed by William the Conqueror.: 1t
was originally the site of Roman
settlement and has figured in Eng
ish history in many important pic
turesque and tragic ways. Many OF
the kings of England are buried
there, beneath the royal chapel, in
cluding King Edward VII, who was
buried there in May. 1910. The cas-
tie, surrounded by magnificent
grounds, has been the chief resi-
dence of English sovereigns for
many centuries.

The Cleanliness Of Animals.

Man seems to be the only animal
whose food soils him, making neces-
sary much washing and shieldlike
bibs and napkins. Moles living in
the earth and eating Shiny worms
are yet as clean as seals or fishes,
whose lives are one perpetual wash.
The squirrels in these resiny woods
keep themselves clean in some mys-
terious way; not a hair is sticky,
though they handle the gummy
cones and glide about apparently
without care. The birds, too, are
clean, though they seem to make q
good deal of fuss washing and clean
hg their feathers.-From my First
Summer In the Sierras," by John
