worked within a few feet of the captree of
the wharf since 1910 and this is three feet
lower than any thing ever saw before" The
wharf was steaming In the sunshine full six
feet below, the ordinary low tide mark and
the mud flats at the foot of the city landing
steps saw the daylight for the first time in
half a century. About ten feet from the foot
of the city landing step the tide had left it
bare. Tug boats and scows along the wharves
were in many cases aground. Most of the
people on the street went down to the wharf
and marvelled. The annals extend no futher
back than 80 years.

Drip ng from caves and tossing leaves
And driving against the pane.

The ocean gray and wan,
Where one lone sail before the gale
Likc.a spirit was driycnon.
The screaming sGa-fswl hUvtrCd
Above the boiling main
Aud lltppcl wide wings IN narrowing rings,
Seeking for rest in vain.
The sky grew wilder aud darker,
Darker aud wilder the sea,
And night with her dusky pinionS
Swept down in stormy gIec.
Then lo from the western heaven
The veil was rent in twain
And llool of light and glory
Spread over the heaying main.

A wonderful street.

Drmorcsts Monthly for October.
Ex-Sccretary of tho Treasury Win
dom is now in London trying to raise
money for building an arcade under
the whole length of Brodway, New
York. If he succeeds, that will be the
most extraordinary thoroughfare
known to the history of cities. The
scheme is to make a new street under
the present surface of Broadway, eX-
tending to the houses on each side, and
lit by electric lights at night and glass
rellectors in the daytime. The middle
of the street would hold railway
tracks, not only for city travel, bat to
accommodate in Incoming trains from
every part of the country. The travel
er in San Francisco or St. Paul would
not only buy his ticket for New York,
but the hotel on Broadway where he
intended to stop. Freight and bag
gage would be conveyed directly to the
warehouse or be received by tho OK
press car which was to convey it TO
any part of the country. Then traffic
of all kinds could be carried on each
side of tho arcade. There would thus
bo double tier of stores. Provision
could be made for sewers, water
mains, gas pipes, and heating tubes.
In short, it would become a double
street and the value of the property
quadrupled along the route. En-
gineers say the scheme is entirely
practible. There is business enough
now on Broadway for two thorough
fareS

Demorcst's Monthly for November.
An orthodox clergyman in the New
York Tribune calls attention, with
some alarm, to the tendency toward
free thought in all the orthodox
churches in tho world. The leading
religious teachers, even in the oldest
and most conservative sects, are criti'
cising the old dogmas and repudiating
the creeds of their own denomination.
Ministers who express heterodox views
are the most popular, and charges Of
heresy which twenty years ago would
have banished them from tho pulpit,
now fall still-born. Jonathan Edwards
terrible sermons, which SO well ex'
pressed the Calvinistic theology of his
time, would not be listened to with any
patience in n modern Presbyterian
church. This samo minister complains
that in Geneva, the home of John Cal
vim, the Orthodox Clergymen, so-called,
are in fact Agnostics. They are in
reality moro heterodox than Ssrvetus,
whom Calvin burnt at the stake for his
premature liberalism. But there may
he revival Of faith. Epochs ofunbelioi
are very rare IN this world, for man is
a religious animal. Infdelity was rife
in Athens when Perloles was oil power
full, but later on the worship OF the
gods revived, and Socrates was put to
death for teaching system of ethics
and religion which would have been
assentea to, or at least tolerated, In the
time Of Perioles,
