Coast by shs Rca.
The fat marshes OF Pevpnsey have
gained half a mile sincsthe days OF ed
ward ii, when the sea almost washed
the walls of the castle that now stands
high and dry inland. The same thing
has happened ON the Romney flats,
where the ancient castle OF Lympne has
receded a mile or more. Such spots a.
these look as though the next spring tide
would add their grassy meadows TO the
lost ground of sea bottom. But ON the
rocky parts OF the Antrim coast we have
the sea slowly working its way inland,
despite the rock Notifications and stony
intrenchments that look 30 resistless.
Under the waves lie tracts of bogland
that once upon o time must have stood
well In shore, and DunIuce bears witt
ness to the ravages that have taken place
within a few centuries, A4ew ticks OF
the clock as geologists count time.
The sea, ever washing and tearing at
its foundations, one day broke down q
considerable part Of the castle, and sew
eral persons were killed by the seatas-
trophe. This was I'm the days when
Duniuce was held by.osf1ef tenants than

QUALIFIED TO ACT AS JUDGE

A Western HumOrIst who Decided o
Case I'm Favor of Buffalo Bill.
Buffalo Bill once gave a show in
Carson City, New, and ON the opening
night the house was packed to the
doors. Tie audience, however, went
away dissatisfied because Mr.. Cody
himself did not appear. The celebrat-
ed cowboy, when the time caue for
him to startle the audience with his
deeds of daring, was not to, be found.
So the good people of Carson dubbed
the show a fake" and after the first
night only a few attended. Charles (.
Locke, the manager Of the show,
brought a suit against Buffalo Bill to
recover damages. 1t caused a great
sensation in Carson. for. according to
the San Francisco Newsletter, the
residents of that town knew very lit
tie of the merits of Thespians Of any
kind, and there were few, if any, who
could honestly tell whether or not 1t
was more gratifying to the audience
for an intoxicated actor to appear ON

or remain behind the scenes In the arms
of Morpheus. The Judge of the court
did not like to decide the case between
Messrs. Locke and Cody, and il was
impossible to find Il jury with sufficient
intelligence to understand the matter.
Finally 1t was agreed to let Sam Davis
decide the case. So the sage brush
humorist was brought before the trf-

AIgol, the Mystery OF the skies.

Algol, "the variable star of the con-
stellation of Parseus, " is regarded
among astronomers as the greatest mys-
terry Of the heavens. Its light usually
remains constant and uniform for 3
period of from 48 to 60 hours. 1t then
commences to gradually fade from view,
and in less than four hours diminishes
to an insignificant point of light. After
remaining in q state of semiotscuration
for a period of time, varying from 10 to
80 minutes it again regains its former
brilliancy. Astronomers believe that
some large dead and dark world revolyes
between MS and Algol. but this is the
disputed point, a mystery which will.
in all probability, never be satisfactorily
explained.-St. Louis Republic.

SPRINGFIELD CANAL
Not Capable of Carrying OF the Water
of the Swamp Above 1t.


Savannah, Aug. 27.-Editor Morning
News: In the report Of Inspector Das-
verges published this morning, he dweIs
upon the 'absurdity Of the fallacy" that
Springfield canal is not adequate to void
the water from the swamps above it. If
the inspector were to inquire of any of
the persons residing near Musgrove
swamp above the "backdam" near Laurel
Grove cemetery, he would be informed
that nearly the whole of the rainy
season this swamp has been full
OF water; that many times Minis swamp
canal has been out of its banks and over
Moved the swamp from the Ogeechee av-
enue on down to the back dam; that the
whole of Musgrove swamp above the back
dam IS now in bOggy condition. The
reason for this is that Springfield canal is
not adequate to carry off the water com
ing down from above, but causes it to
Dack up and overflow the swamps. And
so it win be until that canal is enlarged
and better outlet made for it.
am informed that before the
work on the Lamar swamp canal
and the drains above was commenced the
city authorities were notified, and acting
on this notification raised and strength
ened the banks of the back dam and along
Springfield canal. While this no doubt
plantation below the dam it by no means
proved the canal an adequate and ready
outlet" for the waters above it. Had
there been at any time a heavy rainfall of
or inches, such as fell last August or
Septemb Der, it is very probable these banks
would have been broken and the planta-
tiOn overfowed as it was then Was not
the idea of carrying the waters of the
upper part of Minis swamp and all of
Lamars swamp to the Little Ogeechee the
'fallacy" which prevented the drainage
Of this area before? | think it was
While the drainage done by the COM
missioners around the city has been most
edectlye in carrying off the water of the
smaller and more elevated swamps and
higher grounds, and thus couduced to the
health of the city and its immediate vi
cinity, the main swa mps into which these
waters were precipitated have been
overEowed almost continuously The old
canals in these swamps have proven
totally inadequate to carry off the water.
MusgrOve swamp, Cuyler swamp, and the
swamps through which Harmon canal is
cut, have suffered greatly on this account,
as all the residents in their vicinity will
testify. OBSERVER.
