London.-Fishing with submarine
magnets for allied ships which strew
the bottom Of the North sea and the !
English channel may be attempted on
large scale In the near future If an
invention recently placed at the dis
posal of the British admiralty proves
to be practicable in deep-sea salvage
operations. 1t Is believed that the de-
vice may recover much of the loss In
steel and metals caused by the subma-
rines. 1t is also probable that 1t may,
to some extent, replace the deep-sea
diver.

The submarine electro-magnet" Is
octagonal In shape, three feet in width
between the opposite sides, two and a

FISH WITHOUT MOUTH CAUGHT
Peculiar Specimen Found In Missouri

Kenneth, Mo.-Going through life
without a mouth or rather with your
mouth grown shut would be sad
experience for anybody Of the human
race, but e. D. Poe, blacksmith OF
this city, has just caught fish that

unusual specimen of the tinny tribe
while on an outing at what Is known
as "Tear Blanket" on the Varney
river. 1t was five-pound buffalo
that had no sign of mouth.
The fin had the appearance OF hav-
ing had its mouth and nose bitten
of up to and just below the eyes, and
In the process Of healing the wound
grew entirely shut. With this excep-
ton the fish was a fine specimen
and apparently was not handicapped
by It's strange deformity or affliction,
Poe put the fish In tank Of water
and 1t swan around just like any
other fish. 1t seemed to have worked

MAN BEATEN BY ANTS
Perform Engineering Stunts Sur
passing Human Feats.
New York Subway Insignificant In
Comparison With Insects Tunnels-
Wonderful Works of Cutting
Ants in Texas.

New York.-The subways and tun-
nels under the Hudson and East rivers
have attracted attention throughout
the world, and by some have been |
named as one of the greatest engineer
ing feats in this era of wonderful feats. |
Man has all the machinery that SCI
ence could invent to assist him, cement
and stone to make the tunnels water
proof, instruments of precision to help
him In driving the tunnels or subways
in the right direction and at the proper
level below the water line or street
level.
1t Is interesting to compare this
work of man with similar works of
the cutting ants in Texas. Compare
the work of man with all his ma
chinery and instruments and that of
the ants with only their jaws and per-
haps one pair of legs which they use
at time the size and length Of the
tunnel with that created by man, and,
lastly, the relative size of the ants and
man, and you must admit that taking
all things into comparison the work
of the ants is of far greater magnitude
than that of man.
DIR. Henry McCook states that Cen
eral Fountain, while stationed at Fort
Clark, noticed that the troop garden
was constantly being raided by these
ants, which stripped the vegetables Of
their leaves, compelling them to aban-
don the garden. Another location was
selected, surrounded by an irrigation
ditch, but before long the ants again
appeared. The officers thought that
| they had tunneled under the water, and
one of them, skeptical of their ability
to accomplish such an engineering feat
investigated. He drained the irrigat-
ing stream (some four or five feet
wide), dug up the bed and traced the
insects trail from their point of enter
ing the garden to their old nest on the
opposite side. There are also other &C
counts of their making galleries undel
the water.
A farmer near Austin, to get rid O
depredations of an immense colony O
these ants near his home, had set hi
men to dig it up. To reach the centra
nest he had traced the ants from
tree inside his home premises, whicl
they had stripped of leaves, to poin
$50 feet distant.
The nest occupied a space as larg
as a small cellar, the lowest and mai
cave being as large as -four barre
From this point radiated the avenue
over which the ants marched on thei
raids.
Doctor McCook, with the assistanC
of civil engineer, proceeded to SUI
, vey the main course Of the insects.
, some places the tunnel was as deep 6
six feet beneath the surface, the ave
age depth being about eighteen inche
T At the "exit hole" 4S4 feet from tn
nest, the tunnel was two feet deel
f Besides this main line there were tw
, branch tunnels which detected frol
the trunk line to gain entrance to
peach orchard 125 feet distant.
