VAMPIRE OF THE OCEAN.
"Ironing" the Devilf'oh Is Mods of
Flirting With Death. I
"Ironing" the di'Vilti.sli, the largest of
all the rays and one of the largest
creatures of the sen. meann llirtiu
with death. The devilfish Is also
known as the ocean vampire. Its sci
entific nnuio is Mnnta vampyrus, and
all these names tell Mnncthlng of Its
habits. It gets Its name devilfish from
the fact that project'iig from either
side of the head Is a hornliLe append
age which In reality is a detached part
of the pectoral tin or wins- The horns,
sometimes three feet lung and freely
movable, are used to briny fci.d to Us
mouth.
These 11ns have been' known to circle
above the how of a ljut, lifting the
vessel out of the water mill deluging
the occupants of the boat with pilhuiN
of water. When they Uup liai I; In tin
surface they make n muse dial can lie
heard far off. Exciting? I.in:-' ll;
The sport Is both. Tim only t!iiiii?..ul
saves devilfish hunters nt a lime like
this is preparedness, livery umii must
be at his stutiun, all must obey the will
of the harpooner, and if a bit of lneU
Is thrown in lhe manta Is killed.
The devilfish gets Its name of manta.
meaning blanket, from the p'nrl divers
of the Caribbean sea. who are of the
belief that It devours people after en
veloping them In Its enormous wings.
-The lish has prodigious strength and
has been known to tow n hundred ton
vessel far out to sea. - An authenticat
ed story is told of a manta that towed
eight boats, lashed together, for hours
until finally the crews were compelled
to cut the rope and let the devilfish
escape.
Its vitality Is wonderful. There are
records of specimens escaping after
having been harpooned, lanced and
shot many times with rifles of heavy
caliber. It fights even ufter the brain
and heart have been pierced. Death
comes only when the spinal cord, back
of the brain, is severed. New York

TRAVEL IN THE AIR.
The Safety That Goes With Transpor
' tation by Aeroplane.
It is a new idea that the aeroplane
is a safe' means of transportation In
safe hands, yet It Is an Idea that we
must firmly get into the popular mind.
The average citizen is still frightened
nt the prospect of lenvlng the ground
and having no support except the air
itself. Yet at the speed which we ex
pect nn aeroplane to mnlntaln-seventy
or eighty miles an liour-tuere is no
means of transportation that Is so safe
The obstructions that cause ncci
dents with trains nnd automobiles do
not exist for flying craft. A locomo
tive has to follow a definite track,
which may cause a frightful calamity
The aeroplane is not so circumscribed.
Its tracks are wherever It wishes to
go. There are no obstructions in tne
air unless we regard "air pockets" as
such-no bridges to cross, no moun
tains to penetrate, no Biennis to run
by and no switches to be misplaced.
Or compare this new craft with the
rough road of. the automobile. The
slightest mistake or even Inattention
on tlie part of the driver, going, say.
forty or fifty miles an hour, may hurl
the 'machine over a precipice or over
turn it on an embankment. But such
a -lapse on the part of an aviator has
no such deplorable results. There are
no in eti Ices to fall from and no oh
struct Ions lo collide with.
Tlie aeroplane is even safer than
some forms of water travel. The mo
torbout, going ut a speed of forty miles
nn hour or even slower, Is a more
risky form of transportation than au
aeroplane. If such a boat strikes even
a small obstruction, such as a floating
plank, its side Is punctured and It sinks
In a few seconds Hut there nre no
such dangers In the air. Orvllle

That our own American fighters
have the "do-all-dare-all" gallantry
of their allies in Europe is shown by
a recent report commending First
Lieutenant Ernest C. Williams of the
United States Marine Corps who has
just been presented with the Cong
ressional Medal of Honor for "extra
ordinary heroism in the face of the
enemy at Don Francisco de Marcoris,
Dominican Republic." As the U. S.
Marines expect to be the first to fight
in France, the incident bears unusual
interest.
Lieutenant Williams, with twelve
U. S. Marines undor his command,
charged the Btronghold, Fortaleza,
in the face of fire from about forty
rifles, hurling himself against the
doors as they were about to close
and forced his way nside, followed
by his men. Eight of the twelve men
were wounded but no one was ser
iously injured. They captured the
fort without assistance from other
units.
The Commandant of the Marine
Corps, in forwarding his report, said:
"It appears that by his conspicuous
gallantry, initiative and . excellent
judgment, he solved the problem
which might have proved a serious
one had the enemy been given time
to organize and consolidate, and that
Lieutenant Williams in entering and
seizing the Fortaleza by its only
entrance was most gallant and courageous."
