How Brown Lost Out

There's many a man who fails to get all he should from business and life simply because he neglects his personal appearance. First im> pressions are important impressions.
 Perhaps you'll never need to borrow money from a bank. But it always will pay you to be well dressed.

Dental outlook. 1t was widely re-
ported, and evidently with some basis
sent the defeat of Gov. Smith for the
nomination by repudiating the ma
tional ticket. Up to the time that
John W. Davis made his Scagirt
speech, denouncing the Ku klux
klan, the situation was so bad that
some of the leaders despaired Of be-
ing able to carry Hudson County for
the national ticket. Mr.. Davis de-
nunciation of the Klan has changed
some of that hostility, but we'll in

altogether dissipated it. The fact
that Mr.. Davis had to be fairly
bludseoned into taking his stand
took some Of the effect away. How

bled waters and present practically

new SUIT TO CANCEL
DOHENY LEASE FILED
Sections l and 2 in Naval Ke'
serve Corruptly Obtained,
U. S. Charges.
By the Associated Press.


LOS ANGELES. September 4.--Can-
collation. of another Doheny lease in
the Elk Hills Naval Reserve, in Kern
County, is sought in a suit filed In
Federal Court here yesterday on be-
half of the United states Government
against the Fan-American Petroleum
Company The plaintiff asks that a
lease on sections ! and in the naval
reserve be declared null and void on
the ground that it was illegally and
corruptly obtained.
The suit is similar to one filed last
March seeking cancellation of the
Doheny lease on section 81, and is
based on similar allegations. the COM
plant charging that no open bidding
preceded the granting of the lease
that no adequate consideration was
mentioned, and that Il. l.. Doheny,
head Of the Pan-American Petroleum
Company. gave Albert r Fall, then
Secretary of the Interior, 100000 to
corruptly secure special privileges.
An injunction is also sought which
would restrain the defendant corpora
ton from drilling additional wells on
the property which is said to have
produced approximately 100000 bar
rels OF oil during the past two years.
Pending litigation the court is re-
queSted to appoint A receiver to take
charge or the property.
The suit filed last March resulted in
the appointment of Rear Admiral II.

Son as receivers for section 81.

HOTTEST IN YEARS

The Birmingham age-herald., 1924-11-30

MONTGOMERY, Ala, Nov. 29.- The first submarine boat was designed to be used in the Confederate navy and was constructed in Mobile, according to an account of the boat and her aetivi- ties during the day of the War Be tween the States from the "reminiscences of Admiral A. o. Wright of the Confed- crate navy.
 The story as related by Admiral Wright is as follows:
 "The Hundley was built in Mobile, Ala, and was intended for service in the Confederate navy below New Or leans, but that place fell before she was ready. She was transported to Charles ton, S. C., and put into service in the navy there. She was about sixty feet long, with a continuous windlass run ming from stem to stern, forming eight cranks. There was a man at each crank and they sat facing each other, four on side.
 "The turning of this windlass on cranks furnished her motive power, so that she was run by man power. The windlass ended in a screw at her stern. She had wings or fins on each side to guide her downward or upward move ments, but these failed to work nearly every time they tried her. She would go down all right but she usually failed to come up, and the consequence was nearly every time she went down eight men lost their lives, not drowned, but asphyxiated. And although certain death awaited those who sought service on her, there was always waiting list and she was never lacking in men. In fact, was informed that General

Mobile Built First Sub Boat
 For Use of Confederate Nauy
Man Propelled Boat Sank Union Warship With
 Several Hundred Men On Board

Beauregard, iii command at Charleston, gave orders prohibiting her from fur ther efforts, but as his jurisdiction did not include the navy, his order was dis regarded.
 "She spent several weeks experiment. ing about in Charleston harbor, and when she was ready for actual service eight men were placed on board, and one dark night in the fall of 1863 she was manned out of Charleston harbor, and headed for the frigate Housatonic, the pride of the American navy, which lay just off the harbor as one of the blockading squadron.
 "The Hundley approached her broad side, and passing directly under her, towing a torpedo, about forty feet behind, almost but not quite submerged The torpedo was pulled down and struck the Housatonic amidships, about ten feet below the water line, and ex- ploded, destroying her, several hundred men losing their lives.
 "A few were picked off from her rigging who were saved. When the ex- plosion occurred the little Hundley was probably fifty feet beyond her. The concussion disarranged her navigation functions and she never rose to the surface again. Years after when the y.recks were being removed from the sea off Charleston harbor, there lay the wreck of the Housatonic and about fifty feet away lay the wreck of the lit tie Hundley, with eight skeletons aboard, not drowned, but asphyxiated. y
 Such is the story of the Hundley, the first submarine that ever did this deadly work under the water at sea on a large scale.
