The President has long desired to watch the operations of a submarine at close range, and before this would have made a trip in

010 had he not been deterred from

taking the risk by the advice of his friends and official associates. Convinced by the logic of Lieutenant Nelson, he arranged to take a trip on the ** Plunger" and to have the little vessel perform all her wonderful feats while he was on board.

The special trial of the boat with the President on board, took place between 3 and 6 o'clock this afternoon in Long Is land Sound, just off the entrance to Oyster Day.

As soon as the Pesident had descended 1978 into the boat tho manholes were closed, and, conveyed by the naval tender Apache," the "Plunger." started for the

sea in the Sound but the Plun behaved beautifully. The water where the trial took place is about forty feet deep,

shallow, in the opinion of Lieutenant Nelson and ble experts, to en- able the vessel to do her best work. Soon after the ressel reached the necessary depth of water she was directed downward until ale rested on the bottom of the Sound. Then the mechanism of the craft was explained minutely to the President by Lieutenant Nelson, so that afterwards: he experienced no difficulty in understand, ing the mancavres which were performed. While the President thus was resting on the bottom of the Sound in a submarine boat a storm forty feet above him was rag- ing unnoticed. The rain descended in for rents and tho north-easter whipped the susface of hu

water into big rollers, bat ig was quiet and peaceful where the President

sat.

Explanations of the working of the vessel having been completed, Lieutenant Nelson began to put her through her paces. From the bottom propoise diving was tried, that is, the boat would ascend to the surface of the sound for several seconds, long enough to enable her commander to siglit any war

RATTY.

Ve called him Ratty,' says & writer in Sydrey Bulletin, con every night, after sheain was over for the day, he'd rig up a piece of fencin' wire from the v'randah post to that tree there; pall off 'is boots; and wall is "tight rope," as 'e called it. Most of uswould be feelin' fit ter drop, shearin' bad heep all day, but nothin' seemed to fed 'im. He'd always fall off 'bout 'arf- way across; then 'ud get on again, an' swer 'e 'ud be ablo ter walk ter the tree

for we cut out, or bust. 'E'ud fall 'bout farfa-dozen times overy evenin', an' every fall would be enough to stop any ordinary ma from shearin' for a week; but up 'e 'ud' scramble again on the wire, as lively as a cricket.

Well, we cut out on a Thursday, an' Raty 'adn't got able ter walk ter the tree asket. There was an onusual big muster thero that day, tar seo Rätty perform, an' but third fall, 'e seemed a good bit riled. One of the shearers says, 'Yer'll never do t, Ratty.' Then 'e got more riled, an' e' says, 'I'll bet yor a quid I do it next time."- Ere ye' are,' says Tom Drew prodoocin' a quid, Ratty started for the tree, an' fell again, an' lost 'is quid. Some un' laughed. With that Ratty got real mad, an' saya, I'll bet as many quids as yer like I do it next time. With that 'bout twenty of om come up with quids in thoir 'an's, meanin' tor bluff 'im, but, luv yer, Ratty wor not bluffed. 'E dived 'is 'and inter 'is mole- skins an' yanked out 'is cheque an' agreed ter give the stakes tor the cook ter 'old, an them that 'ad come up with their quids. 'anded 'em ter the cook.'

*And did he fall again?' asked a listener,

in a weak, strained kind of voice.

Satisfaction.

An Unaggressive Agreement,

LONDON, September 27.

The publication of the terms of the Anglo-Japanese treaty has been hailed with contentment.

All the newspapers of London, ex- cepting the Daily News, are unanimous and they welcome the treaty with the greatest satisfaction.

While recognising the sense of in- creased strength and additional security which the treaty gives to both countries the newspapers dwell especially on its unaggressive character, and they refer to the service it is likely to render in

the cause of peace.

[REUTER'S SERVICE.]
