A Curious Fact.

A Massachusetts editor says that a
great many persons in New England
believe that the springfield lakes in that
part Of the country, if not actually
bottomless, are at least unfathonable
by nan What the editor says is a
curious fact, and his statement will APP
peal as a familiar truth to every reader
who was a New England boy, al
though we do not remember ever to
have seen such a statement in print be-
fore. OF a score of New England lakes
and ponds that we can recall, every
one was credited by tradition with hav-
ing at some particular spot a hole so
deep that one was loath to imagine how
frightfully far-reaching it was. Young
swimmers avoided passing over such
holes, in the vague fear that they
might encounter suctions which would
draw them instantly into the center of
the earth, and young skaters stunned
their neighborhood, although it might
be that the ice above them was two
feet thick. We recall one Of these
holes of tradition in a pond in Western
Massachusetts. 1t was called, quite
awfully, fuckers Hole, and there was
a general suspicion that it connected
with the Dead Sea at least. The pond
was filled up without any difficulty a
few years ago, fuckers Hole along
with the rest. Still the other ponds
thereabouts continue to have their bot
tomless holes, and the humiliation of
fuckers Hole has d%iscredited them
not in the leaSt.-Hdrper's WeeklY.

o NIAGARA WAS MADE FREE
In making q free park at Niagara New
York State has made an imperial gift to
mankind. No one will undertake 10 say
earliest days, before the genesis Of the
hickman and the reign Of extortion, innu-
merable tourists advocated a free Niagara.
Oddly enough, tho honor Of first advocat-
ing It to q purpose belongs to q foreigner.
Lord Dufferin suggested not only the pur-
chase and making free to the world of the
lands on either side Of the river, but he
made his suggestion to q mar who coulp
act. It was In 1873 that Lord DufRerin's
casual conversation with Lucius Robinson,
then Governor Of New York. gave birth to
to the free-park project. There are other
claimants for the honor, however. Mr..
Dorsheimer claims to have invented the
idea. For that matter. William Cullen
Bryant advocated . free Niagara for years
before his death. But Governor Robin
son deemed the matter important enough
to dwell upon 1t at length in his annual
message to the Legislature.
Niagara seemingly had no friends in the
Legislature Of 1881. Nothing was done in
1881. At o private meeting held At the
house Of Mr.. Howard Potter, OF New York,
in December, 1882, the interest OF several
gentlemen was aroused. They joined the
sNiagara Falls Association, a body for
whose efforts in behalf Of free Niagara the
world owes much gratitude. Howard Pot
ter was the first President. Among the
Vice Presidents were George William Curtis
and Cornelius Vanderbilt. They drafted q
new bill, which finally. hut rot without bit
ter opposition. passed the Legislature April
IS, 1883. Governor Cleveland signed
it April 80. This bill created . COM
mission. William Dorsheimer, j. Hamp-
ton Robb, A. H. Green, NJ. B. Anderson,
and s. s. Rogers were appointed. They
authorized . survey, determined the bounds
Of tho proposed reservation, and caused the
appointment Of appraisers to ascertain the
value Of lands proposed to be taken. The
appraisal was made last year. The total
value was fixed at 81. 433, 40. The Legis-
lature Of this year appropriated the money,
and last week the Comptroller paid the
greater part Of the owners.

THE AMERICAN BUDGET.
Estimates OF tho Money Needed to Run
Our Government One Year,

The secretary of the treasury has
estimates of the appropriations re-
CURED for the fiscal year ending June
~, 1887. The total amount estimated
as required for all the expenses of the
government is $3.50, $50, ,552, which is
Sl5,67S, 1913 more than the sum called
for in the estimates submitted last
year, and $5,82G,710 moro than the
aggregate of the appropriations for
present fiscal year. The estimates for
1886 were 1928, 3,911, 1894 and the appro-
priations for the same year were $685.
162,842. The estimates for 1887 arc
made up of the following items: Leg
islative establishment 1926, 82S, eX-
couture $l8, ,491,311, judicial 94OS, 800,
foreign intercourse 81, ,7O4, ,961, military

9l4, miscellaneous 1924, 1875, ,95l, per-
iranent annual appropriations Sl18,-
9l0,955. The estimates given above,
except the legislative, judicial foreign
Intercourse and miscellaneous, arc for
larger sums than those appropriated
for use during the present fiscal year.
The appropriations for pensions for
the present year amounted to 100000, :
SAY, for military $24,349,5O naval
$2l, ,697,729, public works SO, ,926, ,S29,

cnccs between the estimates for the
executive establishment, for Indian
affairs, miscellaneous and permanent
appropriations and appropriations
made for the present year are trifling
Among the estimates under the he ad
of public works are the following {:

THE ATLANTA WHIsKEY SUIT.
Judge McCay Decides all tho Points In
Favor of the Prohibitionists

Judge McCay Decides all tho Points In
Favor of the Prohibitionists.
Last Thursday morning in the Uni.
ted States Court Judge McCay decided
the contested election case growing
out of the recent Prohibition election
in Fulton county. He had previously
granted temporary order restraining
the ordinary from announcing the
result of the election which was i'm
favor of prohibition. The Judge re-
fused to continue the injunction, de-
Gliding the case against the liquor men
on every point.
There is in the bill adopted pro-
vision that Georgia wines may be sold,
but as wines from other States were
excluded, that portion of the bill Judge
McCay decides to be unconstitutional,
and that no wines can be sold.
Judge Marshall j. Clark, of Fulton
County Superior Court, has granted q
temporary injunction to restrain Or
dinary Calhoun from announcing the
result of the Prohibition election. He
set Monday last to hear argument on
tho question Of making the Injunction
perpetual.

The Southern Forestry Congress.

The session of the Southern States
Forestry Congress at Defuniak, Fla. +,
last week, was largely attended by
delegates from Florida and the neigh
boring Southern States and from
Northern States. Interest In forestry,
as shown by the large delegation of
representative men, has more than
fulfilled the expectations Of Governor
Perry, Patron of this first Southern
Forestry Congress. An interesting
feature of the exercises was the plane
ing and dedication of trees in ma
tional circle to every State and Terri
tory In the Union. In the circle of
of honor live oak trees were dedicated,
with imposing ceremonies, to Oliver
