A BIG LAGOON,

On the northern coast of California,
some thirty miles below the mouth of the
klamath river, is one of the most inter-
esting natural formations to be found in
'this country, known the Big Lagoon.
Here the coast, which runs north and
south up to this point, takes sharp turn
inland, bordered by very high hills, run
ming TO distance of about three miles,
then turning out again makes sharp
BAY, most V shaped, and for ages past
q sand bar has been washing itself up
across this bay until the bar has raised
up out of the water some ten or twelve
feet having width of about 100 feet
and length of four miles, reaching
across the entire bay.
This bar is in the shape of roof.
When there is storm the breakers will
roll up one side of it, break over and run
down into the bay inside, and it is a
novel sight to stand there and watch the
water, mountain high on one side and
perfectly calm on the other, the line be-
tween the two at intervals hidden alto
gether. This bar is a sort of short cut
and can be traversed on horseback. In
q storm the horseman will one minute be
high and dry on land. the next minute a
large wave will roll up and, running
under the horses feet to the depth of a
foot or more, the rider will be. for an in
slant. four miles or so ut sea on horse
back, with no land nearer than the high
bluffs of the mainland in sight.
Moss agates may be found in abund-
ance on the pebbly beach, and when the
sun shines they glitter with dazzling
brightness
The wild ducks that frequent this part
of tho coast literally fill this inland bay,
and the passing hunter, should he take
q shot at them, will raise such O cloud
and such quacking that he will think
all the ducks of the earth have gathered
there. Occasionally some wild beast,
like bear or panther, will be found
crossing this bar, and the Indians have
much sport yhen such thing happens,
the animal rarely escaping capture or
death.
Here the Digger Indians abound, liv-
ing on the shell fish, which they catch
along the beach, seldom going over the
ridge OF hills TO capture a deer, which
are plentiful. Ii would astonish Yale
or Harvard football man to come upon
this scene some bright morning at low
tide and see the squaws and children
playing lacrosse on the beach. They
get so excited with their sport that they
keep it up until the tide drives them
from the beach, often staying there until
they have to chase the bail down into
the surf.-[Detroit Free Press.

Poems on Demand.

Poets find it difficult, if not impossible,
to write poetry Ito order" A distin-
guished poet, who was not long ago asked
by the editor of q periodical If he would
not write for him poem within two
weeks, answered the editor: Eyes, if
you will exercise your influence with the
muse in such way as 10 compel her to
visit me-" The editor had no Influence
with the muse" and lost his poem.
Beranger, the famous French poet,
whose greatest gift lay in writing little
poems which he called songs, was par
ticularly dependent upon these chance
visits of the muse. He was once visited
by the author and Academician, Vlennet,
who said to him: "You must have
written several songs since saw you
last" Il have only begun one"
answered Beranger. 'N0nly onei am
astonishedw exclaimed Viennet. Ber-
anger became indignant. "Humphl" he
shouted. "Do you think one can turn
off song as one turns off tragedy?"-

Seven Years without q Birthday.

A Scottish clergyman who died nearly
thirty years ago, Mr.. Leishman, of Kin
ross, used 10 toll that he had once been
without birthday. The statement puz-
zled most who heard it. They could see
that, If he had been born OH the 29th of
February, he would have no birthday ex-
ccpt in leap year. But leap year comes
once in four years, and this accounts for
u gap of three years only; their first
thought would therefore naturally be
that the old man, who, in fact, was fond
of harmless jest, was somehow testing
about the seven. There was, however,
no Joke or trick in his assertion. tthe
present time there can be very few, il
there are any, who have this tale to tell
IF themselves, for one who can tell it
must have been born ON the 29th of Feb
ruary at least ninety-six years ago. But
u similar line of missing dates Is now
soon TO return; and indeed there are, no
doubt some readers of this page who will
have only emo Birthday 90 celebrate for
nearly twelve years to come.
The solution of the puzzle. IL TO be
found in the fact, which does not appear
to be very widely known, that the year
1900 was not leap year and 1900 will
not be- The February of the present
year had twenty-nine days, but in all the
seven years intervening between 1886
and 1904, us we'll US in the three be-
tween 1892 and 1896, that month will
have only twenty-eight.-lSt. Nicholas.

that now there Is one to every S00--due,

MODERN football Is rather a warlike
sort of pastime, and the London Lancet

last season in England. It has reported
twelve cases of death directly atiribut-
able to injuries received in football

being acute bronchitis, rupture of the
intestines, rupture of the kidney, injury
to the brain. II 1t be said that such ac-
cidents are the result. of unnecessarily
rough play, the reply is that the game is
never played in any other way.-Foote's
