II IL announced from Tunis that exca-

famous two headed hill mentioned by
Virgil. which hill ID situated about eight
miles from Tunis. Many interesting re-
mains have already been unearthed, and
Il Is confidently hoped that better will
follow. 1l
A temple Of Baal Saturn. which has
been almost entirely laid bare. is attract
ing particularly the attention Of the
French archmologists because Of its pc
culiarly interesting statues and bas-re-
liefs. The building Is situated at an ele-
walton of over 1900 feet. and this is an
other proof that the Carthaginians
practiced their religious ceremonies on
hills.
On all the statues Of the gods't TO which
the temple IL dedicated the names Baal
and Saturn are found together. which
would seem to indicate that to iatter
their Roman conqperors the Carthagin-
ians had added to the name OF their chief

Ever since the days of the first set

"Great Pine" had been a landmark in
Green township because Of its great
height, the tree towering far above all
the other trees In the pine forest that
then covered the Pike county noun
tains. In the clearing away Of the pine
timber. which was the main purpose Of
woodsmen FOR 30 years and more. this
tres was left standing, and 30
years sgoft became the sole relic in all

of pines, and since then has been famous
throughout northern Pennsylvania IS
the 'last PINE"
The natives had always regarded the
ancient tree with great generation, but
recently the land on which it stood pass
ed into the hands Of alien owners, and
one day last week they had 1t cut down.
The tree was found to be 872 feet in
height. and the infallible record Of the
rings Of its stem showed its age to be
462 years. so that it was u respectable

II present pay is inadequate for min

yet congress is not likely to increase sal
aries. 1t has sanctioned q title author
lied by the constitution. but is unwilling

that only itch men, or at least men who

Of the grade to an ENTHUSIASTICALLY makes
the obstacles to poor men all the greater.
An impecunious ambassador would be
ridiculous, and as the increased rank is
practically of no benefit to the country

resented by a self respecting minister
than by al ambassador who is the object

The Dig FAIR Mt Night.

A sight more beautiful than Jackson
park at night cannot be conceived, SO
liberal is the use of electric lamps and so
artistically are they arranged. For illu-
minating the grounds and entrances to
the buildings lamps to the number of
1850 are placed at intervals of from 60
to rs feet, except at the extreme south
eastern part of the grounds. where dis
tances between some Of the posts are in
creased to les feet. Around the main
entrances tothe principal buildings clus-
tiers Of lamps are placed. The arc lamps
employed for exterior illumination are
supported on ornamental posts designed
to receive one, two or three lamps and,
where expedient. have arm-supporting
incandescent lamps of high candle power
inclosed within colored glass lanterns
that afford q richly decorative effect. A
problem of different character was pre-
sented when the question Of aisle light
ing with arc lamps came up owing to
the varied nature Of the exhibits, the
character Of the Enclosures, the height of
showcases and proximity of supports.
In the final allotment of lamps lin
round numbers) 1900 were assigned to
the Manufactures building, 500 to the
Agricultural building and annex, $50
to the transportation building proper,
Horticultural building, $50; Mines and
Mining, 200; the Fisheries. 90, and the
Illinois building 81. These are all sup
piled with current by the exposition
company from the power plant, as ara
also some $50 arc lamps required in Ma
chinery hall.-Chicago Times.

THEIR CHANCES SAID TO BE SLIM.--As
a result of several interviews with the
President, the members of the Virginia
congressional delegation and other
prominent men from this State, who
have been urging the appointment OF
Judge John Goode to be Solicitor-Gen-
eral, have about reached the conclusion
which was presaged in the GAzErTEa
week ago, that there is little hope of
his appointment. 1t is said that the
President told Mr.. Basil Gordon in al
most so many words that he would not
appoint Mr.. Goode. 1t is also said that
in reference TO Capt. Shepherds ap-
pointment to the collectorship of inter
nal revenue DIR. Cleveland strongly in
timated to Mr. Gordon that he would
not reappoint Capt. S. and that when
Mr.. G. asked how it would be if Capt.
S. had no opposition, the President said
"Oh. that might make difference, but
that his manner was plain that there
would be opposition,
