SAYS PRESIDENT!
Then He Tows Motor Boat Marin?

Gives Him" Harbor License.
SISTER SIGNALLED FOR HELP I
"Fresh Inspector Guy" Got Skipper
Perilously Near Breakers with |
Problems to be Answered in Writ?
ing. But It all Ends Well for He has
Good Friends.
Thal "Jim" Muess, or No. 72? Wil
liow avenue. Brooklyn, has his license
to navigate his motor hont is due to a
sympathy that President Hooscvelt
has for poor handwriting.
"Cnp'n Jim" knows all a lion i llie
harbor of New York. He knows it and
its currents and its shallows as the
skipper or lite new automobile 'bus in
Plfth avenue knows the rips and ed?
dies along every new course in the
avenue charted out by Commissioner
Bingham.
"Cap'n Jim" can handle a motor
boat too. He can cut under the stern
of a ferryboat and stand on his head
in the wash and al the same time keep
clear ot a liner outward bound under
the jingle with a couple of acres of
suds astern, lb- can skin around the
piers, too. and make the best time of
illy launch of his power from the
Sou'west Spit to Spuytcn nuyvi)
?k. He can do more stunts with
that motor boat than any Wliltchuud
torpedo that, ever left a tube. And
he's got a big advantage over the tor?
pedo, tor "Jim" always reaches Ills
lest inatlon.
Jibes Before the Pen.
Mill there were some Hille odds ami
mis dial always Imther "Cap'n
Mm." One of them was handwriting.
He could tell you all about the air
valve and tin; injector and the hitc<d
gear, and il didn't lake him a week
to tell whether be could clear the low
boat with the siring of hay barges
ist er n. Hut when it came down to
hard labor at pen and ink. "Cap'n Jllll"|
was caught attack with topmast stun
s'ls but. Even at writing his own
name he made a North river jibe of it
every lime ami something fetched
away. There was nlways heavy
weather when "Cap'n Jim" got out
the Inkpot.
Still, when he heard that it was
'ill)" to him to gel out bis papers for
the launch, and rumors of an exam?
ination reached bis ears be wasn't
worried a bit. and when the "'fresh in?
spector guy" came around he showed
that astonished mariner several Illings |
about motor launches that he never
I suspected bet?re.
'I'm willing to admit," said the in
Ispector, "that tnc Marguerite II. Is the
I only acrobatic motor boat on the AI
lantic coast. You're the 'Charley
Barn.' as you might say. or the North
river. Still, lhe;o'? something elsei
coming to you ye-. You've get to pass]
an examination i't your own handwrit?
ing. It's the law "
Every Sail Blanketed.
This was something that "Cap'n
.11 in" hadn't foreseen and il blanketed
every sail he hoisted. But he held bet?
as straight as he could and worked her
nrnutid through all the sixteen ques?
tions, like bucking a bet I title hi the
Gate/ Then ho iinvc to and sent In his
answers. Out >il~ .ho whole sixhvn
problems he got only seven right, al?
though only four were entirely wrong.]
But ''Cap'n Jim" was rar from
I shipwrecked. There were breakers
[under his ice, but ho wasn't dragging
any. ills sister. Mrs. H. C. Schwab,
who keeps bouse for hint, said she'd
fix il up all right! So she wrote to the
President, saying how ''Cap'n Jim"
had frit got ten more than any one else
knew about the finesse of motor boats
and thai he couldn't even write Iiis own
name as well as Chaoo in-the Hippo?
drome. In short, she -said the rocks I
under his lee were solely the rocks |
of chirography.
The I-resldenl's heart opone.l at the

day of the first Jewish month, or moon,

SALT METHODS.
fia the MarMhea of Hie Kongo and at
t'tnli'n Urcat l.nUt*.
One of tin; siylils of the Great Salt
Inke of Utah, developed by the prog?
ress of RcicnUlic Industry, Is I ho syu
tcni of iuuucnse salt making ponds on
the shore of the lajvo. At Saltalr the
Jake water Is pumped Into u great set?
tling basin, where the Impurities fall
to the bottom and, containing much
Iron, form a reddish deposit, h'roli)
this basin (lie water Is drawn off intii
''harvestlug ponds" averaging tiu.eo.l
square yards in area and six Inches In
depth. Tho ponds are kept supplied
with water, as the evaporation cuts on
from May to September, when lite salt
harvest(|iugiits. Tho water having dis?
appeared, a dazzling layer of salt two
or three inches thick is found covering
tho bottom of the ponds, which Is bro?
ken up with plows before being con?
veyed to tho mills, where the Until
crushing and winnowing are dune.
In general the salt marshes of the
Kongo region represent a kind of pock?
et or rift in the soil. They are to ho
found in considerable numbers la Iba
district of Siiinhnlt, and there are nls.Q.
many of these marshes on the left
bank of the river l.ufubu. The walls
of the rift show first a layer of hlacy
Ir.h clay mixed with sand and contain?
ing numerous quart/, and silos pel)
bios or more exceptionally black mitt
White shells, fragments of oyster nil''
mussel. Then comes a layer of strut*
tied and gray blue schist. The soil of
tbc depression also contains schist as
the greater constituent and Is covered
by a layer of sandy clay. In order to
collect the salt the natives dig a fun?
nel shaped hole from six to ten feet
deep. The cavity soon fills tip with a
warm and clear water, which Is
strongly charged with salt. It comes
up with considerable pressure, and tho
liquid seems to boil. The salt Is partly
precipitated at the bottom of the cav?
ity and mixes with the soli to form ?a
blackish mud. The latter Is washed
out with hot water to extract the salt,
which is then crystallized from the so?
lution. The product which is thus olr
lalned is ?f a salty gray color, and Its
taste is more alkaline than Unit of Ifiu
ropean salt.
