The proposed tunnel between Spain.
and Africa would appear to be no longer
matter of doubt This tunnel, accord
ing to the plan at present contemplated,
Is to extend from within short distance
OF Alglsiras, on the Spanish side, to be-
tween Tangier and Centa, on the African
side. The length of the submarine tun-
mel will be nine miles, with an inclina-
ton of one foot per hundred, and the APP
proaches will have an extent of six or
seven miles The greatest depth of the
sea is 5000 feet; and, as it is intended to
have thickness of some 800 feet of
rock left between the roof Of the tunnel
and the sea bottom, the greatest depth of
the tunnel will thus be $500 feet below
the level of the sea. This tunnel, with
that between Dover and Calais, will form

ELEPHANTS, SNAKES, AND
BULLDOGS.

WASHINGTON, Jan 4.-The Sec
retary of the Treasury was to-day
called upon to rule upon questions
relating to the importation of ee-
phahts, snakes, and bull dogs. The
case of the elephant was upon the
question whether he was chargeable
with discriminating duty of ten per
cent, in addition to the general tar,
iff duty as coming from the East In
dies. In regard to the snake matter
to be determined was whether he
could be entered free under the tariff
clause allowing free entry to speci.
mems of natural history. The last
case was that of two English bull
dogs imported and held in the GUS
tom house pending the determination
Of the point whether they should pass
under the tariff provision allowing
free entry to such animals as were
calculated to improve native bre eds.

Tue LoRD-HIoKs WEDDING
.Mr. Lord's SANITY Questioned.-
The New York World says it is now
known that ex-Gov. John A. Dix
and Mr.. Henry Bergh were the
witnesses at the marriage of Mr..
Thomas Lord, the aged millionaire.
on Monday last TO Mrs. Annette
Wilhelmina Wilkens Hicks. Due
reticence concerning the details of
the wedding has been maintained by
Cordinal McCloskey and the inmates
OF the archiepiscopal residence, and
1T has even been denied, and appar-
emily by authority, that the cere-
mony took place there or was even
celebrated by the cardinal, as stated
IN the marriage announcement which
was published in all the newspapers.
A IL that seems to be clearly known
is that Mr.. Thomas Lord drove on
Monday from his house down to the
establishment of A. T.Stewart a. Co..
drew and had cashed there check
for several thousand dollars, then
drove to Mrs. Hicks's residence, and
there dismissed his coacLlnan, in
forming him as he did so that he (Mr.
Lord) should n.t return home, and
that his services were no longer re-
quired. Mr.. Lord took no luggage
whatever from his house, not even
change of clothing. After short
interval he and Mrs. Hicks came ont
OF her house and got into her car
riage, in which they were driven to
the place, whatever it was, which had
been chosen for the ceremony. and
thence to the depot, since which the
newly married couple have not been
heard of.
In the Supreme Courtof New York
on Thursday Judge Van Brunt gran
ted the application of Thomas Lord,
Jr., son of the groom, for commis-
sion in the nature of writ de luna

NORTHERN SLEIGH RIDING.
HOW II ID CONDUCTED IN MANI
TORA


TOBA.
A correspondent writing from Winni-
peg, Manitoba, thas describes the sleigh
there
The Hudson's Bay dog-sledge consists
of board, usually not more the half an
inch thick, twenty to twenty-four inches
wide, ten feet long, and turned up at the
front end two and 4 half feet, on which
Is built box Of very light wooden francs
work, so covered with parchment or
dressed skins as TO resemble the front of
shoe. A sufficient space Is left behind
for the travellers baggage, or upon which
the driver may occasionally stand when
tired Of running. Generally speaking
such passenger sledges are attended by
two drivers, ole going before the dogs to
guide them, the other following the sledge
to steady 1t aud keep IL from upsetting.
The freight dog sledge Is simply two hin
oak or birch wood boards lashed together
with deerskin thongs; turned up tightly
In front, like q Norwegian snowshoe, It
runs over hard snow or ice with great
ease its length is about nine feet, its
breadth sixteen inches. Along its outer
edges runs leather lashing, through the
loops Of which long leather line Is
passed 10 hold in place whatever may be
placed upon it. From the front, close to
the turned-up part, the traces for draught
are attached. Dogs In The North are
harnessed In a number Of ways. The
Esquimaux run their dogs abreast. On
the coast of Hudson's Bay they are bar>
messed by many separate lines into
kind OF band or pack while In the
Manitoba and the Saskatchewan they are
driven tandem. The number constitu>
ting a train is generally foar, though
three and even two are used. The train
of dogs are attached TO the sledge by
means of two long traces, between which
the animals stand in line, the head Of
one dog being about foot behind the
tail Of the dog in front Of him. Each
Que Is fastened to the traces by roupd
collar OF mooseskin, which slips over the
head and ears aud rests upon The swell
Of the neck. This collar buckles on
each side TO the traces, which are kept In
position by back band of leather,
buckled under the dogs ribs or stomach.
The back band is generally decorated
with little bells, as is also the collar,
aud many ribbons, porcupine quilts, fox
tails, and beads are lavished upon it,
Great care is taken in turning out train
OF dogs in good style. Beads, bells and
embroidery are freely used to bedizen the
poor brutes. A most comical effect is
produced by this Hnery placed on the
person of dog new to the harness, when
he is invariably the picture of fear, re-
sembling a chief mourDer clad in the
garb of "Pantaloon )" and the lndicrous
effect is intensified when the victim hap
pens to be young in years, and still
retains the peculiar expressions of pup>
pyhood. 1t is safe to assert that IN the
North the whole canine race haul a
sledge during the winter msnths. There
is no exception of age, sex or condition
from the miserable mongrel 10 the thor
ouglbred Esquimaux, all are destined to
howl under The drivers lash, to tug
wildly at the mooseskin collar, to haul
until they can haul 10 more, and then to
die
