Educating Europe to Appreciate a Good Thing. New York Commercial: fore us documerts showing the efforts that have recently been making by the United States Department of Agricu We have be- | ture to introduce more widely in Europe the use as human food of the various products of our great staple Indian corn or muize, Our exportations of corn have hitherto been on the smallest scaie, not above 4 per cent of our annual product. And even this limited import has not heen used in Burope as food for man. It is fed to horses, cattle and fowls or else distilled into spir Aguinst its use as a_human food there has always existed in Kurope astrong and inexplicable prejudice, When it is remembered over how wide an area of this country corn in its multifarious forms ranks among the necessaries of lifo, and even in some of its prepara- ions as a real if cheap luxury, it 18 hord to understand how it happens that oven sovere and constant want has so far failed to drive to its use peoplo of the same race ns ourselves. It will be remembered thut in the days of the terrible potato famine in Treland more than a generation ago even starvation failed to popularize among the Irish an article of food which isso highly prized throughout so broad an area in this couatry. No doubt ignorance of the proper mothods of preparing corn meal for the table has had much to do with the un- rn[ml:l ty of this edible in s used to some extent in France, and in Italy polenta—Anglice, mush—is a highly prized dish, though made from a grain much inferior in quality to the American article. But elsewhere in Europe it is a practically unknown article, even on the tables of the very poor. But an effort on the part of our Agri- cultural department has been going for- ward for some time to sev before Europe the advantage of acquiring a tasto tor this extremely abundant and nutritious and, to 8o many Americans, extromely palatable food. Of this Indian corn propaganda Special Agent Charles J. Turphy has been put in charge, and his zeal and intelligence have justified the wisdom of his choice. He has shown in a number of cities and vountries how the varivus products of maize should be pre- pared, and by distributing these pro- ducts gratis or at a nominal price dis pated somowhat of the unjust prejudice that exists against our great staple. Just ot present Mr. Murphy's most promising field of operatious is in Ger- many, where a number of mills have been pat in operation, and find it as much as they can do to fill orders. The plan adopted there is to mix one-third corn meal with two-thirds rye flour, wherchy a great lowering of price is affected without any marked deteriora- tion in quality. By means of this en- tering wedge the demand for corn meal is rapidly increasing in Germany. 1t is hardly worth while to call atten- tion to the importance of this movement to our farmers. 1 once the people of Europe could be made to see the merits of & grain whose price is often so low that it is used for fuel in the west, there would be an_end to grumbling on the part of our tillers of the soil. For, ac- cording to Secretary Rusk’s estimate, a rise of merely 5 cents a bushel would result in adding in one decade the startling sum of $1,000,000,000 to the value of the corn crop in this country. ittt g Dr.Birney’s Catarrh Powaor ouras catarcd, For sule by ull druggists. 5v cents, Spain g Taking Chances, 1t was a saloon and restaurant com- bined, ug was tho fashion n tho curly days of Deadwood, says the New Yorl orald, A hard up stranger entered and walk- ed up to the bar and said: “I haven’t hx,t,fl a mouthful of food for “Yes, just s0” replied the proprietor as he looked him over. “Dead broke and ready to do some- thing desperate!” “Any thoughts of suicide?” kindly quericd the landlord. “‘Bet your life T have!3If T don’t strike something by tomorrow I shall blow my brains out!” “And what are the prospects of you striking something?” “Not onechance in a hundred. you spare me a bowl of soup?” “Look here,” said the landlord, after a moment’s thought, *‘I'm the coroner here and can make an inquest pan out about $20.

Jules Verne's Dream Realized by a Detrolt Inventor, The dream of Jules Verne has been realized. A submarine boat such as he drew from his vivid imagination was given its first thorough trial in sub- marine navigation at Detroit recently. The electric battery had already beon charged when thrée men stepped down through the conning tower and closed over the water tight cover. Inside the boat was lighted by incandescent lights, At first the boat went along the surfaco toward the Detroit river. Then the requisite amount of water was let into the water spaces, the lever that con- trolled the propellers was turned, and it began to go down. The sensation wus peculiar, there being a feeling like that whickh comes to a novice on a toboggan slide, but this soon passed away, and there was almost u de- light in tho novelty. The lookout from the conning tower was interesting. The poat went slowly at first, but soon in- creased thoe speed to ten miles an hour. The boat having the same specilic gray- ity as the water, and baing constructed on lines that gave the least resistance, could go ahenad, down or up as easily as a fish, being able to go faster under water than on the surfuce. The tests were continued at some length, and the boat was submerged several times un- der different circumstances. The ex- periments showed that the peculianrly constructed propellers were admirably adapted for submerging the boat and for raising it to the surface, responding instantly to the pilot’s touch, It was also shown that in sinking or rising the hull was kept in a perfoetly horizontal position. George C. Baker'of Chicago, the inventor of this numeless submarine boat, first conceived the idea of his in- vention in @an Francisco. Mr, Baker constracted a small model which worked satisfactorily, and in De- cember, 1889, ho leva contract foe his submarine bout to the Detroit Boat works of Detroit, Mich. The work of construction was necessarily slow, as everything was new and experimental. Sometimes months would pass withour visible progress, FL\I all this tune sug- gestions were being ade and worked upon, The chiof delay was in the mo- tive power, which had to be adapted to untried conditions. Mr. Buker came over from Chicago as often as possible to superintend the work, and finally, after nearly two years, the hull, which then coutained nothing but the boiler and engines, was launched at the foot of Orleuns street, Detroit, lust October, OMAHA DAILY BEE e WEDNESDAY, JUNE SILES | THE FAMNE IN RUSSIA Mr. Frank G.
