A Rocky Mountain Tunnel.

A notable engineering feat was &c
complished recently in the completion of
the boring of the Busk-Ivanhoc railway
tunnel under the continental divide of
the Rocky mountains at Hagerman pass.
Colorado. The tunnel is almost two miles
long,, 1913 feet-and is through solid
gray granite. 1t took 3 years and 20
days, of 70 hours work each day, to bore
the big hole. It is 1880 feet above sea
level through the top ridge Of the CONT
nent. The water draining from the one
side of the mountain under which it is
driven runs to the Atlantic ocean, and
from the other to the Pacific. Its con-
struction has cost 81 COX, 600 and 20 hu-
man lives. The tunnel. which is on the
line of the Colorado Midland railway,
the Santa FEES central route to Califor-
mia, substitutes two miles Of track for
ten and does away with one Of the most
expensive railway climbs in the world.

When . Chinese Bank Fails.

Bank notes were issued in China as
early as the ninth century, when tho art
Of printing was unknown in Europe.
These notes have generally been redeem
ed, because in China, when a bank fails.
all the clerks and managers have their
heads chopped off and thrown in heap
along with the books of the firm. And
SO it has happened in those good old bar
barous times that for the past 500 years
not single Chinese bank has suspend

Now that China is coming under the
sway Of western civilization, We have
no doubt it will have the same financial
troubles as its more civilized banking

How She write. For the children.

Mrs. Moleswcrth, one of the cleverest
and most renowned Of all the modern
writers for children, is woman Of
Scotch and English blood. born in Hol-
land. She is a grave, gentle. rather
delicate looking creature, with slight
figure and soft, brown hair, parted on
her forehead. She is a believer in me-
thodical work. and her rule is to sit
down ut a certain time and compel her.
self to write to the end Of two pages. If
by that time che finds that she has not
got into the spirit of her work, she puts
it aside, but she generally finds that it
runs smoothly after the first effort.

CURED during the recent sojourn Of the
Servian court in the little seaside town.
King Alexander and his father were in
tho habit Of taking their breakfast In the

suit. who one morning had taken their
places at the table when the young king
and his father returned from q walk.
The former babe the gentlemen go on
with their breakfast. as he intended to
have a bath first. King Milan and the
cuurtiers partook Of their meal, and in
three-Quarters of an hour King Alexan-
der came back and was immediately
served with a cup Of tea. He had no
sooner swallowed large draft than he
dashed the cup to the ground and made
a most horrid face. King Milan jumped
up and exclaimed that it was poison. A
regular panic ensued among the men,
bers of the suit. The court physician
poured out another cupful and tasted it.
At that moment the chef hurried mp,
quite pale with excitement, and said:
Il beg your majesty's pardon. Twill
stake my lead that there is no poisoning
in the case. 1t was the cooks mistake.
He brewed the tea with sea water instead
Of spring water"
The king was the first to recover his
composure and INDUCED in hearty
laugh. Milan embraced his son and wept
aloud. The cult felt as if relieved from a
