FULTONS FIRST FARE
An Incident Which the Steamboat
Genius Never Forgot
There was one little incident in Rob
ert Fultons life which Fulton never
forgot It took place shortly before the
return trip of his famous boats voy
age by steam up the Hudson river At
the time all Albany flocked to tho
wharf to see the strange craft but so
timorous were they that few cared to
board her One gentleman however
not only boarded her but sought out
Fulton whom ho found In the cabin
and the following conversation took
place
This is Mr Fulton I presume
Yes sir
Do you return to New Tork with
this boat
We shall try to get back sir
Have you any objection to my re
turning with you
If you wish to take your chances
with us sir I have no objection
What Is the fare
After a moments hesitation Fulton
replied Six dollars And when that
amount was laid In his hand ho gazed
at it a long time and two big tears
rolled down his cheeks Turning to the
passenger he said
Excuse me sir but this Is the first
pecuniary reward I have received for
all my exertion In adapting steam to
navigation I would gladly commemo
rate the occasion with a little dinner
but I am too poor now even for that
If we meet again I trust It will not be
the case
As history relates the voyage termi
nated successfully Four years later
Fulton was sitting in the cabin of the
Clermont then called the North River
when a gentleman entered Fulton
glanced at him and then sprang up and
gladly shook his hand It was his first
passenger and over a pleasant little
dinner Fulton entertained his guest
with the history of his success and
ended with saying that the first actual
recognition of his usefulness to his fel
low men was the G paid to him by his
first passenger
THE WORLD OF THE DIVER
His One Great Danger Lies In II 1m
Utter HelplcMsneM
Every surrounding every condition
almost every detail of the submarine
divers work is as if invented by the
romancist for a setting to a weird
uncanny tale
The one great danger to the subma
rine diver lies in his utter helplessness
No matter how or where he turns in
his marvelous world where even the
very laws of nature seem turned topsy
turvy he is handicapped with odds
against the life within him Groping in
the murk of the pitcby darkness of a
river bottom or crouching on the sands
in the green gray twilight of an ocean
bed he works alone a monster headed
awkward hideous creature squeezed
as if in a vise by the tons upon tons
of water surrounding him and clad in a
cumbersome unwieldy armor stiff aa
sole leather which often proves his
casket
From the instant the helmet is screw
ed down and the helper grasps the
life line and lowers the diver hand
over hand the click click click of
the pumps bringing fresh air and the
hiss of the escape valve carrying away
the used up air sound in the divers
ears The click click click becomes
part of his subconscious self He is
listening for it always ever not a
click escapes him He starts vio
lently at the slightest irregularity of
the sound He listens for it so intent
ly that to save his soul he cannot count
correctly 100 bricks into a bucket tak
ing them one at a time A W Rolker

Stevensons Grave
No English novelist rests in a more
eccentric spot than that chosen by
Robert Louis Stevenson who is buried
on the summit of the forest clad Vaila
in the island of Samoa The day after
his death -at Tailima in 1S94 his re
mains were carried to the top of this
precipitous and picturesque peak by
sixty sturdy Samoans who had loved
and now mourned their dead chief
Tusitula A party of forty had pre
viously cut a pathway through the
thick tangled wood with knives and
axes while another party had pre
pared the grave With infinite care
and trouble they bore him shoulder
high over the rough ground to his last
long home and there under the starry
sky they left him to sleep forever with
the Pacific at his feet On either side
of his tombstone is a bronze plate
One bears the words The Tomb of
Tusitula while the other Is inscribed
with his own requiem beginning
Under the wide and starry sky
Dig the grave and let me lie

TO RESTORE DAVENPORT HOUSE
Historic Ruins Will be Preserved for
Future Generations
Davenport la The old Davenport
house one of the most picturesque
in America located on Rock Island
near the large government arsenal
that Uncle Sam built years ago on the
beautiful island in the Mississippi
opposite this city is to be restored
and preserved to future generations
as it was built by Col George Daven j
port back in the early days of thisj
century
Colonel Davenport from whom the
city of Davenport is named came to
Rock Island with the Eighth United
States infantry in 1815 when it was
sent up the river from St Louis to
tablish a military post later known as
PK e l5
Old Davenport House
Fort Armstrong on the island Com
ing as commissary contractors agent
to supply the regiment he remained
a resident of the island until July 4
1845 when he was jnurdered by rob i
bors in the house which is now to bej
rebuilt and which has remained un
occupied since that time
For many years the old Davenport
home has stood in a state of ruin al-
most a danger to the hundreds of cu-
rious people who visit every year the
oldest structure in the Mississippi val
ley above St Louis Its restoration
has long been urged by historic and
patriotic societies and has just been
made possible by a gift of 2000 to
ward the fund for that purpose by
Colonel Davenports granddaughters
Naomi and Catherine Davenport of
this city

TITLED AUTO DRIVER
HON C S ROLLS NOTED ENG
LISHMAN TO VISIT AMERICA
Regarded as Premier Motorist of His
Country Some of His Experi
ences Is Also an Ardent
Balloonist
London Englands premier motor
ist is undoubtedly the Hon Charles
Stewart Rolls as an aeronaut he Is
hardly less distinguished Having
toured in all parts of Europe he Is
now turning his attention to America
and has left England for a three weeks
visit to the United States It will be
Mr Rolls first trip across the Atlan
tic though on several occasions when
ballooning he has nearly been in it
Mr Rolls is the third son of Lord
Llangattock hence his title of Hon-
orable Like many of the younger
sons of the nobility he was intended
for the diplomatic service but he
showed such a strong bent for me
chanics and science and such an
aversion to other studies that it soon
became evident the results of insist
ence on parental wishes would be to
sacrifice a good engineer to make a
poor diplomat So he was allowed to
have his own way After going
through Eton he went up to Cam
bridge where he specialized in practi
cal electricity and was graduated in
engineering in 1898
Rather tall and thin he walks with
a slight slouch and no one judging
from appearances would take him for
one of the keenest and most intrepid
motorists of the day It is only when
you get him talking on his favorite
subject that his eyes light up and you
see the spirit of the enthusiast shin
ing in them
He began his wheelings early for
when quite a little boy he used to
come down a hill near his home in
Monmouthshire in an improvised
sleigh on wheels It is his proud
boast that in one of these spins he
bagged a curate a butchers boy
HON C S ROLLS i
Noted British Autoist Who Is Comi
ing to America
and a dogcart in quick succession His
first motor experience was with a
steam roller which he drove on Sun
day mornings while his father was at
church
At 15 years old he was notorious at
Eton for getting into scrapes through
his passion for electricity and after
going up to Cambridge he soon be
came known as Petrolls and was
seldom called anything else
His motoring experience has been
probably unique He thus summar
izes a few of the things that have hap
pened to him as a motorist
I have burnt my boiler out three
times on a steam car which I once
had to push three miles in dress
clothes
I was once stuck in a deep flood
the water coming up to the floor
board and I had to hail a punt
Once I had to be practically dug
out of a bog
Was once stuck for want of a
match for over three hours with my
burners out
The longest distance I have had to
walk for petrol was in France 12
miles
Have three times had a passenger
fall off a racing car moving at a fair
speed without being killed
Once had a horse and cart on top
of me
In the Paris Vienna race ran into
a tree at 70 miles an hour
Once had my head mashed in by a
starting handle
Have twice run away completely
down hill forwards and two or three
times backward
Once upset an apple cart in the
Strand and twice had my car burnt
up
Many prizes have fallen to his
share In 1899 he gained first in the
Bordeaux Biarritz race and second in
the Paris Ostend while he also won
the valuable gold cup together with
medals nad various other prizes for
the 1000 miles trial in England
He was nineteenth in the famous
Paris Berlin race after his car hadi
been seriously damaged and in the
Paris Vienna contest he ran into a
tree while traveling about 70 miles an
hour Fortunately the tree collapsed
and Mr Rolls was not seriously hurt
though he was almost buried in the
wayside bank
Mr Rolls is also an ardent balloon-
1st and gained fourth prize as well
as Mrs Howard Goulds cup which
this lady offered for the Englishman
who traveled the greatest distance in
the recent James Gordon Bennett in-
rnatjpnal race
