THE LESNING TOWER or PISA.
A correspondent, writing of the Lean.
ing Tower of Pisa, says that, whether by
accident or design, no one can now tell.
the inclination of the structure makes it
look and feel to the visitor rs il it were
about to tall. 1t is $50 feet high and is
thirteen feet out Of the perpendicular.
This is stated everywhere, and is no
doubt true, but l suppose there are
many persons who, like myself, expected
10 see building erect, the center Of
whose top was outside the center Of
gravity.
This is not the case by any means. 1t
is true that rope falling from the CEN
ter Of the top would strike the wall at
the bottom of the tower side, but the
rope would not fall outside the tower
wall. In a short time satisfied myself
and two other visitors Of this fact. The
apparent contradiction of the laws Of
nature disappears, then, in a moment.
Taking the building as a whole-let-
ting a line fall from the center Of
the top-if this line fell outside of the
base in that case the building would
violate the law of gravity # it re-
NAMED standing. believe the archi-
tect planned this optical delusion.
There are no signs Of any giving way in
the structure. No crack or crevice gives
evidence of rapid or slow settling Of the
walls.
The architect knew very well how
easily the eye can be deceived. The
firmness OF the masonry, the gradual
ascent, the symmetry of the whole,
prove beyond doubt that it was built
as il now stands. The walls below are
very thick, and unless these should give
way there is but one other method by
which the building could be oyerthrown.
II the stones were 10 slip from their
places. theu, little by little, il would be
dislodged. But the whole structure is
keyed and bolted aud oemented into a
solid mass. II it leaned nine feet more
than it does, then it would fall. because
the sum of its weight would fall outside
the center Of gravity. The mystery dis
appears at once when we examine it,
but the curious effect upon ones nerves
in making the ascent and standing on
the TOP is nevertheless real

THE MN WiTH TJiE IRON MASK.
The id,nli,y ot "The lron Maa'- " ,';
The Mau with the Lon Mask" haf
i,ver been satisfactorily est ,blisLed.
About tho year 1879 he wns carried win
tiie utmost secrecy 10 the Castle Of Pig
norol, and wore during the journey
black mask, which was not of iron, but
OF black velvet, strengthened with
wbalebone, and secured behind with
steel springs, by means of lock. as
some say. The orders were that il be
revealed himself he WAS to be killed. He
was conveyed in 1856 totheisle Of Sainte
Marguerite, and during the passage the
strictest watch was kept that he might
not allow himself TO be discovered. The
unknown prisoner was in 1908 conveyed
TO the Bastile, and was, as before, hid
den behind the mask. In that prison the
captive remained until his death, in 1870.
On Nov. 20, the day after his death,
he was buried in the cemetery of st.
Paul, under the name OF Machioti. The
unknown was treated with the greatest
respect, but so closely was he watched
that he WINS not permitted TO take off his
mask even in the presence of the physi-
clan who attended him. Many conject-
ures have been hazarded as to who "The
Man with the Iron Mask" could have
been, the one generally accepted at the
present day by those who have carefully
investigated the subject being the fol-
lowing: 1t is conjectured that he was a
Count Matthioli, Minister Of Charles
I'LL, Duke of Mantua. This Minister
had been largely bribed by Louis XIV,
and had pledged himself to urge the
Duke 10 give up TO the French the for
tress OF Casals, which gave access to the
whole of Lombardy. Louis found that
Matthioi was playing him false, and
lured him TO the French frontier, and
then had him secretly arrested and i'm
prisoned. As he was Minister Plenipo-
tentiary at the time, his seizure was a
fragrant violation of international law,
which il was safer TO be able to deny
than to justify, and. when the denial
was made once, the "honor" Of France
was involved in unfolding il

adopted high license for liquor, with q
provision for local option requiring
two thirds vote in each block, town or

saloon. The tax is also heavy one,

ton TO the county. The law also in
cludes stringent regulations regarding
the hours Of closing. and heavy pen
atty for selling to minors or intoxica-
ted persons. This system Of heavy
tax and stringent regulation is rapid

ed in many States where heretofore
there has been perfect freedom Of
trade in liquor. Within the next ten
years it will probably be in force in
