Eiaduct and Tunnel.

NJ. Bunau Varilla, a Paris engineer,
claims to have discovered the best
means of communication between Eng
land and the continent. lie proposes a
pier or viaduct half a mile in length on
each side of the channel. These piers
are to be connected by a tunnel, with
continuous rails, the descent from the
bridge to the tunnel being effected in a
tube by the Fell, Otis, Erydoux, or any
other system serving for steep or yer-
tical inclines. Tho distance from the
extremity OF the pier to the mouth of
the tunnel will be only eighty or 100
yards. 1t Is estimated not to cost more
than the tunnel. IL viii not obstruct
the navigation or create any in%terna-
tional difficulty, for the pillars of the
piers are to be 500 yards apart,
with q height Of fifty yards. The
scheme a be carried out in six
years. " meets strategic difficult
ties. the London Times correspondent
points out, for the tunnel terminates
out at sea on both sides, and il the con-
nection between pier and tunnel Is in
%terrupted the train cannot ascend or
descend, for when the tube is destroyed
the tunnel is submerged. Thus at the
slightest warlike mvoement each power
would be obliged, for its own security
and TO avoid ~ruinous dangers, to give
up the use of what may be called tho
mixed passage.

THROWN THROUGH A WINDOW.
A Nebraska Man Nearly Killed by His
Roommate.

OMAHA, Neb., June 20.-About 2
o'clock this morning J.. j. Werner
rushed into the Office OF the Merchants
hotel and cried, my God, l have killed
the best friend l ever had!" On in
vestigation the unconscious body OF l..
o. Secrist was found beneath the third
story window OF the room which the
two lei had occupied. Both men we're
from Hebron, were delegates to the
Masonic convention and had always
been bosom friends. They retired at IL
o'clock, and according to Werner's
story were 500 asleep. Using his own
words, he said: "At 2 O'Clock / awoke
and seemed to be under a huge animal,
whose eyes glared at me. 1t dug it's
nails into my throat and face, and then
with a mighty effort j rose from my
bed and hurled it through the window.
That fully aroused me, and for the first
time realized that ! had killed my
friend"
The police think that the men had a
desperate fight and that Secrist was
thrown out of the window by his ad-
yersary. Although the man is fear
fully bruised he may recover. Werner
Is under arrest.

man who ~personated the mysterious
Chinese entity known as Gun Wa, and
c. A.. Jansen, a graduated physician who
acted as interpreter for the physician,
who has for a year past advertised with
such great success the virtues of his
herb remedies.
The Milwaukee Gun Wa house was
one of seven similar establishments,
the others being located at Denver,
Kansas City, Detroit, st. Louis and
indianapolis. The entire outfit is
alleged to be under the pr~oprietorship
Of +. l.. NJ. Smith, of Denver, the plan
OF operation being TO employ a China
man in each city to play the part of a
dummy.
BY ingenious advertising and contin-
uods letter writing victims were secured
from all parts Of the country who we're
treated by the week, the charge usually
being S. per week, a cure being guaran-
teed in every case. The patient was
shown into a dark room, where his con
dition was communicated to Gun Wa
through DIR. Jansen and medicines com
pounded which were legged To he Chi
nese remedies, but ,Shich were in fact
connections gotten up by the negro
cook.
When a kicker was encountered be
was disposed OF by telling him that di-
rections had not been followed. Hun
dreds of people have in this way been
fieeced without being benefited. The
complaint Is based upon five counts,
conspiracy TO defraud, fraudulent use of
the title of doctor, obtaining money
under false pretenses, violation of the
pharmacy laws of Wisconsin and the
circulation Of obscene literature.

TT IS cHILD'S GIFT.
A Fairy story From the City OF Brotheriy
Love.

a fairy story From the City OF Brother1y
Love.
PHILADELPHIA, June $3.50 much
comment has been created throughout
the length and breadth of the country
over the recent acceptance by Mrs. Har-
rison of a cottage at Cape May that 1t Is
said that certain people very close to
the presidential family have been seri-
ously considering the desirability OF
urging upon those responsible for the
gift the necessity of making a public
statement which would place the matter
in its correct light and tend to allay the
criticisms that have been and are still
being made. Only the fact that such a
course would tend to give renewed
publicity to the gift and thus per-
haps embarrass Mrs. Harrison has pre-
vented such an explanation being made
before this. The truth of the whole af-
fair, so 1t Is learned from a source
which is generally accepted as being
beyond question, Is that neither Post
master General Wanamaker nor any
other man identified with political life
was interested to the extent OF a single
dollar in the presentation. The solitary
donor was George w. Childs, of the
Philadelphia Ledger, and whose fame
for good wooks is only bounded by the
four corners of the universe. The idea
with him and was carried
out by him, and, in view OF the fact
that Notwithstanding his close ac-
qTaintance with more than one ma
tional administration, he has never
yet asked president, a cab
officer, or an appointing
power for a single courtesy or favor, it
is held by those in the secret that the
that has been created by the
present affair is peculiarly unfortunate.
Mr.. Childs was aware that Mrs. Harri-
son had long desired a cottage by the
sea, and he knew also hat the only
thing that stood in the way OF her real
izing her desire was the fact that she
seriously questioned the ability Of the
family e~xcbequer TO stand the draft
that would be involved. Knowing all
Mr.. Childs quietly secured
possession of the Cape May property and
the title deeds at Mrs. Harrison's
disposal. 1t was intended that this
action should be kept a secret, and the
publicity that has resulted was not OF
his seeking. Mr.. Wanamaker's sole
part in the matter, so 1t is said, was to
introduce TO Mrs. Harrison w. S. Nc
kean, managing editor of the Ledger,
who had been commissioned to present
the title deeds and ask their acceptance.
This, It is declared in confidence by in
parties, is the entire story OF
the case.
