What the worlps Population Would

If we reckon the population of the
globe at one thousand two hundred mill
ions of human beings there would be
room for them all Oh the frozen surface
of tho lake of Constance (Switzerland),
and the crush would not be so very great
either, as there would be a space four
feet square for each person. If the ice
were to break, and the whole human
race were thus to sink into the watery
grave, the level of the lake would only
be raised six inches.--London Tit-Bits.

A bad wound.

About IL O'Clock last night telephone
message was received at Police Head
quarters to the effect that woman was
bleeding to death near Center street. In
a shanty on WE'LL street a woman
under the influence of liquor was
found, her clothes and the pillows under
her head being literally covered with
blood, from an unseen wound apparently
at the back of her head. An examina
ton was at once made by the doctor,
aud in spite of the drunken woman's re-
monstrances, the scissors we're brought
into operation and her locks sheared
from the vicinity of the wound. A ter
rible hole, large enough to admit the
doctor's forefnger, was discovered, in
side of which the blood could be seen
pumping out of the end of severed ar.
terry. The bleeding was finally stopped
and the wound dressed. In the mean
time the patient had fallen asleep, and
nothing could be extracted from her as
to how she came by such a wound. A
stranger had picked her up on Also
street, where she had evidently lain for
some time. Her name was Mary Dixon.
