e know not what it )?, dear, this
sleep so deep and still.
9H^V The folded hands, the awful calm,
the cheek so pale and chill;
HHr The lids that will not lift again,
RH though we may call and call,
The strange, white solitude of peace
wm that settles over all.
f We know not what It means, dear,
this desolate heart pain,
This dread to take our daily way
and walk in it again;
We know not to what other sphere
the loved who leave us go,
Nor why we're left to wonder still,
nor why we do not know.
But this we know: Our loved and dead
if they should come this day,
Should come and ask us "What, is
life?" not one of us could say.
Life Is a mystery deep as ever death
can be,
Yet oil, iiow sweet it is to us, this life
we live and see.
Then might they say these vanished
ones and blessed is I lie thought!
i "So deatli is sweet to us, beloved,
though we may tell ye naught;
We may not tell it to the quick this
mystery of death
Ye may not tell us, if ye would, the
mystery of breath."
The child who enters life comes not
with knowledge or Intent,
So t hose who enter death must go as
little children sent;
nothing is Known, hut I believe tliat
God is overhead.
And as life is to the living, so death is 1
to the dead. Walt Whitman. ^
A SPRINGTIME MESSAGE
I
To Those Who Have Laid Loved Dear
Ouca Away.
Did you ever stop to think that i
God hides away so many secrets under ,
the snows of winter? Who can tell 1
what mysteries are buried beneath the
white cover, so deep, so dazzling In Its
purity when It llrst falls on the brown
leaves and withered grass? It is true
to its trust and never whispers of th
possibilities that are being sheltered
and nourished by its enfolding. The ,
flowers are only sleeping, their tin/
puUes are thropping with life down
in the darkness, and after they awake,
rested and refreshed they will bud
and blossom more beautifully than
before.
The bare brandies of the trers bend
lovingly down in a feeble attempt to
protect the little sleeping blossoms
and the wind, wo say, sighs mourn
fully as Its rocks them to and fro, \ ut
tt Is only chanting a lullaby that is
known to nature's children alono. All
Is quiet and peace under the snow
awaiting the sound of "spring's trumpet"
to awaken to a larger life and
greater loveliness. So when "life's
winter is past" and the snow has melted
at the call of God's etrnal spring
what wonderful surprise await us.
Life, full, free, throbbing life that
will never need to s'eep again under
the winter's sorrow, for
"Itohind llie dim unknown
HUindoth God within the ohiidow, keeping
Welch above liis own."
And what seemed deal It to the natural
sense was only a hiding away of
the germ Immortal wit h God standing
guard, ready to bring it forth in good
time. The king who comes and
spreads his robe of ermine over all,
treads, oh so gently, because of the
sleeping buds and tender blossoms beneath
his feet, in their earthly cradle.
The awakening t into is not yet and
they will sleep more sweelly under
the ermine robe. Why do we not
think of this when our heatts are
heavy laden because of what lias been
bidden away from us, remembering
that there lives one who never loses
sight of our Mowers, even though t hey
wither here in the cold blasts that
come from the sea of pain and the
valley of the shadow. He knows they
are only resting for a moment, to
come to a more marvelous growth in
' the gardens that are sunkissed etern

rules for liuman beings to observe:

To these who are desirous of living
one bundled years we can see nolh
ink uujucnonaoie in cue anove suggestions.
So far as they apply to local a
life, we presume none of our citizens c
could le worse olf for followii g them.
In fact, our present dally life is ' (
modeled much after the same lines. L,
We are not all fortunate enough to |}
liave roof gardens for sleeping apart- | v
ments, but the tendency to seek pure |
air Is in evidence among the lowliest.
If we.can't get abundant ?#ercise in
walking, we get about as much in balancing
ourselves In overcrowded trains c
and trolly* cars, and we eat moderately
enough because, with the ten- ^
dency toward increased prices for food,
there Is no other alternative.
Public and private baths are in- \
creasing everywhere at an unusual ra- t
tlo, and the tendency of the age, even s
among the fair sex, is to combine
comfort with fashion in such a way ^
that beauty or "the mode" shall not j
be the price of physlctal fortune. I
The French physician's doctrine is j
simply that of rationality, and cvolu- e

NAVAL HEROES
ell of Their Weird Night Forty Feet
Under Water
N SUBMARINE It OAT FULTON,
Ifhloh Ijavm Twelve Hours ou the
Bottom of the t> o e a n
With Nine Men
In Her.
At Newport, It. I., gallant navy
ion spent twelve hours Wednesday
Ight and Thursday morning in the
Iny living room of the submarine
>rpedo l?oat Fulton, as she rested
?rty feet below the surface of
larragansett Hay. It was a test of
lie splendid nerve of the naval tightig
man, as well as the supreme test
f the deep-under-the-sea war engine,
nd lioth emerged triumphant.
All communication with the land
ras cut olT. The roof of the conning
uwer was bolted in, and silently the
raters of the bay closed over the griminking
craft at a quarter past eleven
Wednesday night, and she slowly sank
elow tlie surface, having on board
Ine oflicers aud men, who had volnteered
for the test.
From that hour until a few minutes
fter eleven Thursday morning the
cnturesome nine experienced, widepen
eyes, the fanciful dream of Jules
'erne. I)awn appeared, and showed
n absolutely unruffled sura face where
he Fulton had gone down. For all
he interested Jack Tars at the Newort
Torpedo station knew, their
lates had met the fate of the sublarinc
crew that went down to death
ecently oil the coast of England.
A NIGHT WITH DKKP SKA KI8H.
And for that matter, for all that
he tars aboard the Fulton knew,they
ad taken their last look at daylight
nd had gone down In a living tomb,
ill the life that remained to them
/as contained in a cup shaped steel
ubo. Tons of water encompassed

josoning of a bolt, the slightest dlsrrangement
of the machinery, such
s frequently happens wherever
nachinerv Is used, might mean death
o them in one or its most horrible
orms.
Deep down there in the. sea, surounded
iiy entirely new and hidden
icrlls, It might be supposed that the
aek Tars sat In silence, each one
iusy with his prayers, but they did
iot. Some read magazines, others
ilayed chess with improvised pawn's
nd others flop', while still others
opt watch and stared at the lish
hat gazed at them through the bull's>es
as curiously as the ti.sh stared at
hem.
"It was just like the forecastle of a
nan o?-war." said one of the olllcers.
Science triumphed over death. A
ew minutes past 11 Thursday mornng
the surface of the bay just off
lie torpedo station began showing air
lubbies on a scale slightly larger than
hose thrown by a porpoise. There
vas an Interval of live minutes, and
hen slowly from the depths rose a
:reat mass of gray iron. It looked
ike a whale rising for a sunning.

Gradually it shook the water from
t.self and took definite shape. A
[roup of a I undred Jack Tars on the
vharf Kt loose a cheer, and the Fill

Captain F. T. Cal)le was the first to
ippear. "flood morning," he said
hoorly, "How's the weather?"
Cable lias made about two thousand
rips below, in European as well
s the American waters. He con
ess s a preference for deep-sea life,
villi an occasional breathing spell,
Ishlike, abovo tiie surface.
Naval Constructor Woodward folowed
to tlie deck.
"Splendid!" lie cried; with the air
if a scientific man.
()ne by one they crawled up through
he conning tower, and as fast as they
;ot out in t.1"e clear, lighted cigars
nd pipes. The navy man thus far
las found only one grave objection to
he submarine boat. He cannot
moke under the water.
The men were as fresh looking as
bough they had spent the night in
larraoks, or swinging comfortably in
lammocks aboard a battleship. They
lad breakfasted comfortably olT cannd
goods and colTee, cooked on an clecric
stove, and fruit. They seemed
oath to leave the Fulton and step
?ack on dry land.
I n every detail the test had been a
uprerae succ ss At 110 time was any
Iscomfort felt by any of the men.
ncompreliens ble as the statement
nay appear, for eleven hours and a
lalf of the twelve that they passed at
he bottom of the bay, the men lived
11 the air that the boat contained

Captain Cable sa}s they could have
Ived with t lie same supply for several
ours more; but they drew on their
eserve supply in order to test the
umps and satisfy Constructor Woodward
as to the perfect working condiion
of tiie apparatus.
In naval circles here the success of
lie Fulton's test Is regarded as of the
Lmost importance. Naval Construeor
Woodward sijs that the Fulton
went through every test splendidly,
nd as a result of the trial the Imporant
fact has been demonstrated that
he Fulton, or any boat of her type,
an make a cruise of :t00 miles and relain
submerged for ten days.
The dominating part that the toredo
has played in the war In the Far
last hits turned our navy men's at
entlon to this Held of warfare, and
aily experiments are being made at
he station, in every detail of the
raft.
While the Fulton still lay at the
ottom of the bay Thursday prac
ice drills were had in the launching
f Whiteheads from the end of the
wharf, and every day the Porpoise,
hark and Plunger, three more submarine
lighters, are taken out and

The Naval Hoard, under the presidency
of Captain Charles A. Train,
left here Thursday, delighted with
the new boat.
Thursday's test was culled the habitability
test. It was made under the
supervision of the Navy Hoard of Inspection
and Survey, consisting of
Captain T. J. Train, Captain J. II.
Dayton, Captain J. J. Woodward,
Commander Walter C. Cowles; brother
of the commander of the battle ship
Missouri, and Lieutcuant-Commauder
Isaac S. K. Reeves.
The men who actually participated

Woodward and Captain Cable,
were Lieutenant II. II. Morrell, Lieutenant
Charles P. Nelson, Chief Engineer
P. V. Itehill, Assistant Engineer
Henry Klrby, Gunner Charles
Hechtold, Hoatswaln Charles Iiergh,
Chief Engineer II. W. Noblit and
Hoatswaln W. Lindcman. These are
tire men who went down in the Fulton.
After returning to the station Wednesday
night from the mimic attack
olf Point Judith the boat was put in
condition for the test, stores were
taken aboard, and at 10:45 p. m., ail
tiie crew having gone aboard, Captain
Cable let down the lid of the conning

began sinking.

The rain fell constantly all night,
and at dawn showed no sign of abating.
Through the clear waters of
Narragansett Hay one 1 <oking directly
down over the spot where the Fulton
had been submerged could dimly
discern the little ship, resting easily
at the bottom.
At nine o'clock the crowd began
to gather and speculate as to the fate
of the boat, but it was not until a
quarter before eleven that any hint
came fiom below as to how she had
withstood tlie test.
There was a furious spurting of
water over her like the blowing of a

that Captain Cable mr.de a draft on

Fifteen minutes more elapsed, and
then the Fulton came to tire surface.

as perfectly satisiied with the
test.
01VK THEIR EXPKRIENC109
What the Crew of the Fulton Bay of
Their Trip.
The following experience of the crew
of the submarine boat Fulton while
forty feet under water will be read
with interest:
WHAT CAl'T. CAULK SAYS.
Having been down in submarine
boats about two thousand times, the
sensation was not new to me. But
there is no particular sensation. The
air was just as good lielow, as it is up
here. I slept comfortable. I know that
Captain Woodward is very particular
about the air in his sleeping room, and
when lie was satisiied there is nothing
more to be said.
For eleven hours and a half we lived
on the free air in the boat. We real
ly did not have to draw on the reserve
supply, but 1 thought it well to test
the apparatus to see that it was in
working order. There is no more danger
in one of these boats than there is
in any other kind of boat.
We sank to the bottom easily, and
we were pretty well tired out from the
hard work of the previous day, and yet
some of us played cards or read magazines
and the papers of the day until
llliMllt. lO h'lOiV'l/ u/hon "in oil ibam! ~
W V.vvn, H livu TTU Uil TTCIIL IU
sleep, save ( ne, who stood watch for
two hours and then called his relief
from time to time. We could hear vessels
with propellers passing by.
We had cooked some of the food,
which was relished. Our stay below of
twelve hours was nothing new for me
and for our men, as we have on many
occasions remained below and without
using compressed air at all.
Sleeping under the water in submar
iue boats is easy acquired by men who
work with these types of boats, and
there is no more to fear in them, like
our trip just ended, than in sleeping
on board a water vessel of any kind.
Everything in the boat worked well
and we simply carried out the orders
of the trial board and were happy and
willing to lay down and sleep. There is
no reason why the Fulton could not
have stayed down twice as long, for we
had food and water, reading materials,
cards and checker boards to keep us
happy for that length of time.
Some of the boys had writing material
on board, and when they awoke
Thursday for breakfast, which consisted
of eggs, milk, cof'ee and bread,
they wrote letters to some of their relatives,
and while these letters were
being written there was hardly the
slightest perceptible movement of the
boat.
We had breakfast at 8 o'clock,
which Lieutenant II. II. Morrell, my
tlrst ofliccr, cooked like one of our
Newport cottage chefs, and we all enjoyed
it, for we were hungry. It recalled
the story of the "pies which
mother used to make."
WHAT OT1IKKS SAV ABOUT IT.
Constructor Woodward says: We
got along splendidly. There is no
particular sensation about sinking
exceDt that <?f denr-And.no tr? an
vator. After we got down the senation,
if one closed one's eyes, was exactly
the same as it is on the surface.
There was no difficulty in breathing,
the air was pure and wholesome, and
shortly after going down I turned in
and went to sleep. 1 slept soundly.
Others slept also, but I am informed
that some of the men read magazines
and played cards. Hut they all got a
proportionate amount of sleep, and so
far as 1 am aware, feel now no ill
effects fiom their experience. The
test was in every respeot a success.
II. II. Morrell says: "Its a peculiar
sensation when you beg n to go down.
If you have any fear at all, then is
the time it strikes you. You know
that you are shut in that there is
water all around you, and it sort of
catches your breath, but after a while
you become accustomed to being
where you are and it doesn't seem at
all strange. It is very quiet, of
course, and there is no movement of
any kind. I had a sleep, and 1 slept
well and ate well. We read magazines
and played chess and talked
about our strange position, but I
don't believe there was a soared man
in the ship. We had perfeot confidence
in the boat and absolute confl
/
/
I
crowded, but not any more than on
one of the regular torpedo boats or
the old monitors. It isu't auy warmer
than the water, and the air was all
right.
I hadn't any particular sensations.
It was rather depressing going down,
and naturally it was gratifying to see
the light of day again after twelve
hours of solitude.
Charles W. Iieechlold says: During
the night, while 1 was on watch, 1
was looking out of oue of the bull's
eyes and a big tish swam along, stopped
short and stared at me in amazement.
It was a most peculiar looking
tiling, seen through the thick
glass.
Ills eyes glared right into mine,
and then he darted away suddenly, as
though scared half to death. 1 think
1 should like to serve regularly on
one of these boats.
Henry Kuley saysr The worst
thing about it is that you can't smoke
below. Mr. Cable says you might do
that, for all the harm it probably
would do, but there always is danger
or a spark striking the gasoline, which
wouldn't lie good even with the water
all around you.
A ltomnrkable Cure.
A dispatch from Savannah to the
Augusta Chronicle says: Friday afternoon
during a severe thunderstorm a
bolt of lightning struck the chimney
and descended into a room of the home
of Mrs. W. T. Leopold, widow of the
late W. T. Leopold, grand keeper of
records and s*als of the Knights of
Fhythias of Georgia. Several brick in
the fireplace were sent Hying. Mrs.
Leopold and two of her ohlldren were
sitting in the room. All three felt the
shock, Mrs. Leopold getting much of
its force. Just at that time Mrs. Leopold
wassulforing greatly from lr llammatory
rheumatism, which had seldom
left her during seven years. Strange to
say, almost Immediately she found
that her rheumatism had disappeared,
she has not felt it since, and her physician
thinks it may have disappeared
permanently.

For a hundred years or more Witch
Hazel has been recognized as a superior
remedy, but it remained for 10. C.
DeWitt & Co., of Chicago, to discover
how to combine the virtues of Witch
Hazel with other intiseptics, in the
form of a salve. Hewitt's Witch
Ilazel Salve is the best salve in the
world for sores, cuts, burns, bruises
and piles. The high standing of this
salve has given rise to counterfeits, and
the public is advised to look for the
name " DeWitt" on the package, and
accept, no other. Sold by
Dr. E. Norton.

A dispatch from Houston, Texas,
says Vice-President and general
Manager William T. Kldrldgo of the
Cane Pelt railway has resigned because,
he says, there Is a determination
on the part of a combination of
persons to assisanate him. He has
disposed of his extensive land holdings
and other Interests and will leave not
only the road, but the Cane Belt conn
try as well. A week ago Eldrldge
was shot through the body by a mat)
In an ambush as he was entering the
general otllccs. The wound at tlrst
was thought to be fatal, hut has
proved otherwise, and he Is recovering.
The trouble Is due to Kldrldge's positive
otllcial policy. A mortal enmity
arose between Kid ridge and Capt.
William Dunovant, a leading stockholder,
and resulted In Kldrldge's killing
him. Since then the latter's life
has l>een twice sought by would-be
assassins.
Noktii Carolina negroes held a
lynching of their own and in the same
week took charge of a Republican district
convention and elected all negro
del gat s to the Roosevelt convent Ion.
