Shaksperean Statistics.

~ ( { + Z =
Prof. Rolfe, an American scholar,
has taken the trouble to count the
lines assigned to the principal char
aeters in shakspere's plays. Hamlet,
whose long soliloquies swell the &C,
count very largely, is the most To-
quacious of all. But for the fact
that the acting copies are always
ruthlessly cut down, the young prince
Of Denmark would have to utter no
fewer than 1,569 lines, or more than
twice as many as fall to the share Of
King Lear, Brutus, and Macbeth.
Next to Hamlet comes the crooked
back Richard with 1,161 and Iago
with LII. Othello, by the way,
who has some difficulty at times in
getting a word in edgeways," as. the
phrase goes, when his ancient is at
hand, has to content himself with
only 9S8, which is just two lines
more than Corr olanus gets. Romeo
has 6l8. 1t is noteworthy that the
old calumny that women are afflicted
with an immo derate propensity to
talk finds no support from these in
designations. All the poets women,
in fact, are at the other end of the
list. The most voluble of all is Rosa
lind; but even she has only 749 lines.

THE TRoUBLEsoME BILBo.
Maj Warfield's Plan for It's Cleaning
Generally Approved.


The plan of Maj. L. 81. Warfisd for the
sanitary discharge of the Bilbo canal sew
age seems to meet with general approval,
and several aldermen have expressed the
opinion that il is a practicable as we'll as
economical plan.
One alderman said that it was like the
old story of Columbus and the egg,
vexati0us problem until some one showed
how easy its solution is.
Alderman Falligant, chairman of the
committee on drainage, says that the letter
OF Maj. Warfield having been referred to
his committee, he proposes to investigate
the matter at once. The only objection he
now sees to flushing the canal at high tide
and discharging its waters at half tide is
that such a strong current as the plan will
involve will tend TO cut away the sand of
the banks and bottom, and discharge it in
the river, causing the channel to shoal He
thinks this can be obviated by putting in
false sides and bottoms of timber, a plan
much cheaper than brick sewer, and work
not expensive to keep in repair.
Aldermen Carson aud Haioes nave ex-
pressed themselves as favorably impressed
with Maj. Warfield's suggestions.
Alr. Carmichael, who is experimenting
the construction of the new quarantine
wharves, and who is familiar with the tides,
says the project is a feasible one, aud one
which was contemplated when
Bilbo canal was opened All
who have expressed themselves
to MORNING News reporter, who made
inquiries on the subject. condemn IN strong
terms the custom of cleaning out the canal
by throwing its unsanitary deposits on the
canal banks, and much surprise has been
expressed that such disposition has been
made of the matter removed from the canal
bed.
pertinent will be made, and if it operates as
Maj Warfield claims it will and as it is
generally conceded that it will, an ex-
pensive brick sewer will not be constructed
next winter as contemplated.
