Dick Fairfield was rarely nt a loss for a ready reply, lie looked out at the sea so vast and Imperious, and he thought of how the lame girl at his side had come Into his life. "You are doing much, Virginia," he answered, after a moment. "You are bringing happiness luto many of our lives, hat more can you want to doV" The girl turned her face and Bwered not at all. The orchestra was playing In the long ballroom. It was one of the stirring marches that a great bandmaster had given as his tribute to his fellow men and women. It had been dedicated to the national colors, and the swinging cadences and clear rhythm told of the waving flag of the free. Dick Fairfield tbougut or what It had meant. lie heard It as a marching chorus, and he had but to close his eyes again to see the long flies of dust-covered men who had left the dock In front of the hotel twelve months ago to fight beneath its folds. lie saw It carried and waving before the trenches In the swamps where disease, the deadliest form of hidden foe, was lurking.

These easterners were content to crit icise. They wondered why the hotel bandmaster didn't get new selections. New selections? Why, a march song like that had uo age; It wus superior to time Itself. He had little use for these eastern men and women. They were too languid, too contented. "I doubt If your thoughts aro worth the fixed price," snld a voice nt his side. "Won't you give them to meV" And Dick realized that It was a man's occasional privilege to change his mind. For VIrgluia Howper was another kind of easterner. During tho ten days he hud already spent of his fortnight's vacation the girl had como to mean moro to him each day. Her restless spirit, her ambition to succeed, ho thought a wonderful contrast to tho eplendldly built eastern women, who preferred to let others talk and think and net for them.

The jtirl knew that the music told of a man's love for a woman, or the great Joy thai had come Into her own lire. A solitary breath of wind stirred the restoons along the front of the plaaxa. The coasting sailors kuew a storm was brewing. A sharper breath of wiud came ami swung tho festoons near where Virginia sat. The candle In one of the paper lanterns toppled over.

She heard Dick's voice speaking iu her ear, and sho turned and gave him her hand without spying a word, It Is needless to tell what followed Virginia Howper found her popularity had swept Into fame. People called her the heroine of the hotel, and new arivals begged to be presented. Sun day newspapers sent for her photo graphs, nnd the tales of her achieve ment went far and wide. Virginia laughed at it and took It most good naturedly. To her the praise of a cer tain westerner was Infinitely more de sirablc than the entire loud-voiced plaudits of the eastern contingent of the hotel. Ulchard Fairfield returned to Cor- dona, Iowa, after his fortnight's rest In the south. To certain of his friends he gye confidences. He hinted very vaguely of a general dislike for the easterners he had met at the Florida resort He described them vigorously as cold-blooded and disagreeable. Then he would lower his voice and hint that there was one exception to the rule.

In that city aud will uo doubt create widespread Interest throughout the country among students of electrical therapeutics. Iu the course of these experiments Dr. Roberts seut a cur tent through his body aud thence to .1 Crooks tube. In this he created 1111 X ray by means of which a photograph of a baud wus taxeu, showing perfect- j ly its skeleton. The X-ray was or rare ! brilllaucy aud peuetrutlug power. But ! even were this not true the Teat would be remarkable in that he is the first man to ever make himself the con ductor of a current of electricity of great power enough to create an X-ray. The secret of Dr. Roberts' success In his experiments Is that lie employed what is known to be a static current through his body. The static-current has no volume, but great power. It Is not the potential energy that kills, but tho volume. This may la Illustrated by an analogy. A needle might be passed through the body with great rapidity and power, but It would not be ns harmful as n thousand needles passed through slowly nnd with little power. In other words, the power, the voltage, has nothing whatever to do with the physiological effect. It Is the number of needles, the amperage. Still the experiment Is not without danger. It requires a nice adjusinent of machin ery to produce the proper kind of cur rent, it requires a thorough knowledge cf certain conditions to apply the cur rent perfectly. It requires a familiar ity with ek-ctrlc currents to prevent shock. To Dr. Rolierts It had little or no danger. "Tho Idea or passing an X-ray current through my body was conceived," Dr. Roberts explained, "while I was making experiments Iu electrical therapeutics. I became con vinced that It could be done If the cur rent were produced by a static ma chine, and I Immediately proceeded to do It. had consisted Iu the hair becoming erect nnd rigid. This was caused by tho exit of the current which, jmsslng through the cells of the linlr aud tilling them, stiffens them until they looked like tiny bars of Iron.

"I made a photograph the other day of a woman whose hair Is twenty Inches long while she was sitting In this cur rent," said Dr. Roln-rts. "If the hair Is wet while the patient Is In the pool, and the room Is dnrkened. It will glow with a brilliant blue tin me. The other day I placed a man on the table and turned the current Into him. He had previous ly stripped to the waist, and wet the hair upou his face, head and chest. vvuen tne current iiegnn lis passage through him he la-cune ghostly In np peurance. His benrd, head and chest were wreathed In blue Maine. Yet he did not feel the slightest dlsngreeable sensation. Another peculiar feature about this static current is that when ever It finds a point for exit It becomes a blue flame, one-half Inch In length. it lias neat, yet It does not hum the person from whom It passes." The discovery of Dr. Roberts should lie very valuable In the application of elec trlclty to therapeutics. (5 ATI I.MANNS NEW WARHIll I' ON Till' M(M rn rjJB llorb I-'nriiis.

"In the static current the medical profession has exactly what It needs to balance. The static current Is elec tricity restrained In a condition of high tension. It Is sometimes called I-'rank-llnlc because Franklin demonstrated Its Identity with terrestrial electricity. It Is electrical pressure without volume. It Is nlmost free from amperage aud consists almost wholly of voltage. Poet ically, It Is the great Invisible messen ger for light heat and electricity from the tangible storehouse of nature, Tho generating of tho static current Is sim ple. An Initial charge of electricity must bo Imparted to tho armature or receiving part of the machine. The plates aro set In motion with artificial power. About tho revolving plates a certain multiplication of the certain electricities takes place by theJnfluunco of ono charged body upon another, with tho resulting output of static currents depending upon speed, number of and diameter of plates and atmospheric conditions. This machlue, which Is not moro thun live feet long, six feet high and three feet wide, Is capable of gen erating 10,000,000 volts of electricity. Anybody could do the same thing un der the same conditions. This machine while throwing off a prodigious amount of energy, Is much like a serpent whoso fangs have been removed. Tho major portion of Its destructive force Is sub ducd becauso Its amperago Is small, owing to its peculiar construction.

Some light was thrown a few years ago upon tho subject of tho vitality of whales by finding one of these nulmals In Bering Sea In 1800 with a "toggle" harpoon head In Its body bearing tho mark of the American whaler Montezu ma. That vessel was engaged In whal ing In Bering Sea about ten years, but not later than 1854. Sho was after ward sold to tho government nnd was sunk In Charleston harbor during tho civil war to serve ns an obstruction. Hence, It Is estimated tho whale must have carried tho harpoon not less than thirty-six years. Just ns Ktr-ctlvo.

It Is sharp-prowed, and the freeboard, or the distance from the sheathed dink to the miter line. Is very slight. It Is almost awash, as they say at sea. When Iu motion this forward deck Is usually under water. If the vessel picks a ltoiie 111 her teeth It would certainly be washed by the waves caused by swift motion. The .cel has dimensions approxi mating those of the warship or the Texas type. She Is about Xi feet over at. with about forty feet beam. The wurshlp has a proportion of one In live , between length aud beam. Thus the Wisconsin, with a trifle under -si feet III length, would huu' mjiiio sixty live feet Iu width. tiiUliiiiHtin's ship has this proiMirtliiu extended to nbout cue In seven. The reason for this Is lo In crease the speed eapHclty. She Is con structed nft or the armor belt and gun station much like the torpi-do-boat or to-day, with a curved deck reaching down to the water line and curved stern. Her propeller wells are covered. tioccil of Thirty Knots. She Is of light sled construction, fob lowing the modern method of using thin metal In preference to heavy tim ber. But her sides are not protected against an ordinary Held rllle of to day. She could be hulled If broadside oil by nn old-time muzzle-loading, smooth bore. Her gH'ed Is to be not under twenty-three, aud In forced draught .may run up to thlity knots. Speed and the low freeboard ore her strong points. She presents almost 110 target, and Is so swift as to be able to choose her own position for attack. The main dependence of tho (intli inn nn warship Is, of course. Its battery. Back of out single plate of armor will be mounted 11 gun which will throw (00 pounds of gun-cotton nt the enemy a-, each lire. The shell will leave the muzzle at tho rate of 'J.OOil feet a sec ond. A single discharge of th!s gun will be equal to n broadside from the Oregon, or about !!..00U foot tons. Ono shot well directed, .Mr. Cathmauti be lieves, will wreck the most formidable armored warship ever constructed. Two or three guns will be mounted on the main battery, each with a bore or sixteen Inches. One of the jiecullor features of the Gatlimauii ship Is Its so-called armor belt. The vessel has uo armor proper, but a part of It Is protected by an ar mor belt. This belt rises to a point a trifle above the roof of the after portion or the ship. It Is placed on at an acute angle with the lateral diameter of the ship. The angle Is placed farthest for ward, with the two arms extended nft ami to the sides of the ship. The belt also curves from the dock plane back ward to Its highest extremity. Thus any shot not delivered squarely at right angles to the nrm of the belt, nnd with & plunge sufficient to overcome the backward slope, no matter how fiercely delivered, will not oven start a rivet. It will Inevitably glanio off, because full Impact Is relatively Impossible The belt being placed far enough aft to pass the point of equilibrium may be made ns heavy ami as Impenetrable as science can devise. Tho vessel lies so low In tho water that with an ordinary sea 011 she would bo practically Invlsblo a great poitlon or tne timu 111 action. Its superior speed-as great us that of any torpedo boat niloat would enable this ship to choosu Its own position in a light against any heavy, unwieldy warship of to-day. She could sail all around such 0 fort on water, aud could always present her Hows to the enemy, thus materially reducing target surface, ami also presenting her protected deck alone to attack. 10 (,r Is simply im pi.-.
