The Submarine in History.
the Minneapolis Tribune

From the Minneapolis Tribune.
Most of us are prone TO think OF the
submarine as a modern idea which began
to take definite form in the literary hey
dey of Jules Verne a half century ago.
AS a fact, the idea was very much alive
back in the days OF Herodotus, the Greek
historian. who lived and wrote in the
fifth century before the Christian era
He tells Of n submarine operation by
Scillias Of Scion and his daughter who
dived under the ships of Xerxes and cut
the anchor chains.
Aristotle and Pliny the Elder were
other old timers who had somewhat to
say about what might he done under
water and how 1t could be done. In the
18th century Lorini, an Italian writer. de-
scribcd AN alright box In which an OBJ
| server descended to the depths of the sea
and studied the landscape and life found
there through transparent disks. About
the same time Marin Mersenne discussed
learnedly in Latin the possibility OF sue
cessful submarine construction and opera
ton.
Further in order we have edmund Hal
ley's Art of Living Under Water writ
ten in 1916 and a description In the Lon
don Gentleman's Magazine in I747 of a
| wooden submersible boat propelled by
oars. Charles Griswold contributed to
the American journal OF Science for April,
| 1920, "A description OF David BushnelTs sub
mersible boat which was used in 1776 in
an attempt to destroy British ships in
New York harbor.
In 1864 the Scientific American had an
account of an undersea torpedo boat in
vented by the chief engineer of the United
States navy. Six years later Jules Verne
came along with his stirring romantic
scientific book called Twenty Thousand
Leagues Under the Sea" Since then con-
tributions on the general subject have
been voluminous, but German authors did
not become notably busy until about IL
years ago. Prussian war lords let others do
the talking and writing. but when it came
to making submarines agencies OF diabol-
ism they We're in a class by themselves.
An undeserved stigma has been put upon

or omens collected by Mr.. Shirley in
connection with the present war, none is
more singular than one having reference
to the emancipation of Poland. When the
Prussians took possession of Cracow, in
1894. the Polish kingdom ceased to Exist
The king of Prussia desired to possess the
traditional diadem Of it's kings for his
own adornment. 1t had, however, disap-
peared mysteriously and the PrussiaR
king was baked of his wish. In Janu-
airy. 1914. seven months before the war
broke out, a severe thunderstorm broke
over Cracow, and a stately elm in a field
close to the city was shattered by light
ming. Its fall brought to light a secret
treasure which had lain buried at Its roots
for l23 years, the long lost crown of Po-
land. Some Of the jewels were loose and
fell to the ground as it was picked up. but

Bogus Hons. in America.

II. l.. Mencken, in the New York Mail.
Whoever edits the estimable Congress

Instructive gazette heavy with mention
on innumerable Hons, chiefly. l believe,
bogus.
No governor OF a state, or cabinet Of
ficer. or mayor of a city, or state sena-
TOR, or federal district attorney, or other
politician of sound job and morals is ever
mentioned in the Record save as an Hon.
AS for the members OF congress them

back to Jackson's day, to call them Hons.

off the handle would undoubtedly cost the
edito OF the Record his post and perhaps
send him to the hulks.
SO far as l know, there is absolutely TO
warrant In law, nor even In settled and
%lnvariable usage, for this use of Hon. by
the laborious patriots Of the two cham
bers. They are, indeed, no more Hons.
by statute than the members OF parlia-
ment. Even the president of the United
States is not lawfully an Hon. but merely
'the president" and In that form he was
always. referred to In the Congressional
Record and other public documents. In
the first congress some member proposed
to call him the Hon. and others proposed
his excellency or his highness. But the
two houses formally decided that 1t was
mot proper to annex any style or title
other than that expressed by the consti-
tuition" and so the president lacks Hon.
to this day.
A few governors, / believs, are his ex-
