A PRICED palm tree in Rome was
blown down during recent gale. 1t
stood in the gardens of the British EN-

M. Bunall Varilla has come forward
with new plan for uniting England
with the continent. He has overcome
the objections at once to the bridge

combining both. The plan now to be
considered projects pier or viaduct
that shall extend out from each side of
the channel about mile. From the
sea-end of these piers connection is to
be made by tubes with submarine tun-
mel. Through these tubular approaches
railway trains will be lowered on an in
cline into the main tunnel.
SINCE about the middle Of May the
city Of Tomsk in Siberia has been under
water. The river Toma began over
flowing its banks as soon as the ice
broke, and the inundation continued in
creaSing until more than three-quarters
of the city was covered. Many houses
were destroyed by the current and the
drifting of ice-blocks, and many lives
were lost. The churches, the school
buildings, the markets were inundated,
and the rapid increase of water created
a panic among the citizens so that they
were entirely helpless, and many Of
them rushed to certain death. The fire
department and the military posts of
the place could do very little to help
the panic-stricken citizens and they had
to MAXI gigantic efforts to save the Gov
eminent property and the important
city archives.

DEVELOPING THE CoNGo REGIoN.-A
railroad is being built on the Congo
for the transportation of goods and
passengers along that portion-some
240 miles-which cannot be easily
navigated. Mr.. Stanley thinks the
road will be complete in about three
years. The road begins ITO miles
above the mouth of the Congo, at
the point where navigation by ocean
steamers stops, and extends to Stan
ley Pool in the Upper Congo basis,
where begins an unobstructed water
way of 1000 miles. In the basis of
the Upper Congo there are 5000
miles of navigable waters, and the
country, according to Stanley, is
rich with all the produtcs of the
equator. People who can live at
New Orleans, he says, can live in the
Congo country, and he expects the
region to fill up by immigration.
There is, however, in his opinion,
''an immense trade to be done with
the population already there as soon
as the way is open to them by the
completion of the railroad.
