THE HOME OF THE PRINCE or WALES.

Sandringham hall is situated on the
sea- coast close 10 HOunstaHtOn, the now
famous new watering place. 1t isby no
means an old house, having, in fact,
been rebuilt by the prince himself dur
ing the past twenty years. 1t stands on
rather high land and cOmmadS 4 fine
view Of the sea and woodland, and is al
together exceedingly pretty. The house

cc-siy,ly convenient, every possible
modern Improvement has been intro
duced. IL is heated like an American
house and has the most magnificent
cOnsc rvatOrieS, full of rare eXotics, and
winter gardens imaginable. The park is
charming, but even this does not bear
comparison with the marchioneSs of
LOthian's palace at Blickhng, where
Anne ROleyn was born, or that at
Haughtou hall, the seat Ofthe WalpOieS,
or indeed even that at poor Lord Towns-

would be burned. Nothing serious
would occur. for the wires are insulated
with rubber, and the chances are very
much AGAINST an accident"
David Brooks, the:electrician, said: III
do not think it right that the electric
light wires should, be strung along the
street on poles In Europe they are all
under ground, and accidents very rarely
happen. The burning of an instrument
is an ordinary occurrence, and is often
attended with great danger. l have
known people to he killed by that
means, and ithas happened that whole
roomful of operarorswere terribly shock

hurt so badly that they died. When an
electric light wire and telegraph wire

There was change III the tone OF the
market from yesterday, when weakness
was Characteristic and when considcra-
bic short interest was made in the mar
ket, was due to a revival in plausible
shape of report respecting an early set
tlement of the r. r., which caused the COW
ering of short interest made yesterday, with
a result OF advancing prices. Towards the
close business dispatches from Chicago
were received saying: All roads have now
reduced their freight to basis of 10 cents
per 100 weight to New York; cents to
Philadelphia and cents to Baltimore.
The open rates have been 1917, 1917 and 81
cents respectively. The rates were again
cut on the Colorado business, some of the
roads making the rate eight cents on
freight from Chicago to the Missouri river"
These advices caused the decline in the late
dealings.

The COLORADO DESERT.

There is an old adagc which says that
Arizona was the last spot on earth to be
created: that Yuma is the outpost OF the
neither regions, and the hottest place in
the world. Every one knows the old
story of the two soldiers who, while
stationed at Fort Yuma, died, and. go
ing straight to Hades, returned III a
short time for their blankets! BE that
~ it may, there can be no doubt that
parts ofSouthern California and Arizona
are among the hottest regions OF the
world. Neither the Desert OF GObl IN
Asia nor the Great Sahara in Africa
can be worse, in this respect, than their
small relative, the Colorado Desert, III
California. A PrOtracted Journey OF
some four weeks over this desert gave
me an excellent chance to see 1t aud It's
worst aspect, and l purpose trying 10
s,iye others an account OF its most m
tCreSting features.
The desert occupies almost the whole
of the large county Of san Diego. IL l.
some one hundred and fifty miles long
and fifty miles wide, and the Southern
Pacific Railroad runs through the cen
ter oft. About sixty miles from Los
Angeles, the railroad encounters very
heavy grade, one hundred to one hun
dred and ten feet % the mile, and 1t con-
tinucs for twenty-five miles. At the
summit, known Is san GOrgonla Pass,
begins the decent into the desert, and
every mile brings you tOa more desolate
country. At Whitewater Station, TWEEN
~ miles from the summit, the desert
commences in earnest. First a few
flowers CuiivCd the scene. Large
GR0'bcrdS. three or four inches Ill
diameter, grow on small stalks five or
six inches high. Large plants OF
.AGronia muTtiHIo, with clusters OF
brilliants purple flowers. spread over
the ground. \ little Gii0 q. LeDt-
rQ0ai, with white cOrolla and yellow
center adds itS beauty to the scene; and
tine only shrub, Ld7Ten NcricoHa, or

of the forests you have left behind
