S.ilil Io He Sue -rlor to Oiir Own Sint
Well V. <ir h C<i|i) ins-
Havel brought b.wk any new plan of
Invention? Well, If you put it pointedly
I must say that I have one stored away.
The JapaiiCM. have given me a new idea
aliout row ing a liont. which I am going to
experiment on in Washington and see
what can be done with it.
f 'Jake their method of rowing. It Is far
superior to any t ing we have in this coun
f try. Ihe best Wu ' I can explain it is that
it'is a kind of s ing. There Is one oar
at the ind of the I .mt, and then several
I oars may be placed alongside, all of which
exercise the same sculling motion. I have
brought with me from the oriental coUn-
' try an exact model of one of their boats,
and after reaching Washington I will con
struct a boat combining the American and
Japanese principles. The Japanese method
; of propelling a boat is distinct in itself.
A. I say, it is a method of sculling, yet it
is not our kind of sculling. The oar is
, horizontally placed, and by a peculiar mo
tion from a pivot the greatest of power is
L exercised. The blade is always under wa
ter. Our method of sitting in a boat with
our back toward the place we are going is
barbarous. It is inartistic, and it belongs
i to a prehistoric ago. The idea of having
to stretch one’s neck and look over one’s
■ shoulder in order to keep the boat in the
right direction is a thing which the Jap-
. anese would not tolerate for a moment.
Then from the standpoint of exercise the
Japanese rowing is far ahead of ours. For
I college aquatics the Japanese principle
, would simply lie great. If lor some other
American scientist can get the Japanese
1 principle of locomotion fastened on to an
■ American style of boat, Yale and Harvard
will then have something to row with.
The exercise would be much better, be
cause the Japanese oarsman stands up and
' the entire body is brought into play.
Their method is better, first, because it is
, more powerful, and, second, because it
, gives more exercise. But understand me
that their principle cannot be attached to
1 our model of boats, and it is on this point
that I am going to experiment. I will
probably try a catamaran model of boat. —

Davis Outdone in Diamonds-
About the beet true story —I enp
. poee the stories are true, as he swore
they ail were —told me by my friend
the clerk was about Charles L Davis,
the actor, otherwise known as “ Alvin
Joslin,” says a writer it) the Louisville
Commercial “He was in the lobby of
the St. Charles, in New Orleans, when
a man Iron) Chicago stepped in front
of him and looked over his bead in
search of an acquaintance, who he
supposed was in the hole! lobby.
Davis, mistaking the Chicago man’s
purpose, remarked : “Ah, I see you
admire my diamonds. This one”—
indicating the stom on bis shirt
boson —‘i<ft me $3 000 These”—
showing his cuff bu'tom—“ciwt me
$2,500 each, and my wife has a trunk
ful op in h< r room.”
The Chicago man did not say much,
but that evening, by arrangement with
the head waiter, Davis was placed at
supper alone at a able where were
several vacant chairs. Presently seven
men, all commercial travelers, entered
the dining room, and each one had a
large cut glass fruit dish fastened on
hie breast, while glass prisms hung
pendent from each co .t and vest but
ton.
Soberly matching to Davie’ table,
eeven men took ilie vacant seats, and
the Chicago man entertained the actor
with : “Ah, I see you admire our dia
monds. This one”—pointing to the
fruit dish—‘ci s’. mu $3,0 0 000.
These”—indicating the prisms—'cost
$250,000 each, and we have three car
loads like them at the depot waiting
to be sidetiacked.” Davis not only
changed his table, but went to another
hotel,

of the fast friendship which has always
existed between Mrs. UlyssesS. Grant and
Mrs. Jefferson Davis. It is accounted for
in this way: Long before tho civil war,
when Grant was stationed with his regi
ment in the far northwest, charges were
preferred against him and were reviewed
by Davis, who was then secretary of war.
He took the young officer’s part and dis
missed the charges with a gentle repri
mand. “The silent man of Galena” never
forgot thi>; neither has his widow.
