An Industrious Mole.

turned 1t loose in the middle Of q five
acre field Of clover. The grass was
SO thin and winter killed that the
ground was practically bare, but not

received it's freedom It had burrowed
out OF sight. This may seem past

% feet In n zigzag line, but keeping
the same general direction all tho
time and without digging any side
galleries. BY IL a. IN. OF the follow.
ing day the tunnel had been driven 81
feet further. with numerous side
galleries, and 4 feet had been added
ut tho end next to the starting
point. In another hour 10 feet had
been added ut the extremity, making
81 feet Of main line and 86i feet OF
branches. or a total Of 1O4t feet OF
tunnels dug In 25 hours. The bot.
tom OF the tunnels ran very evenly
about 4 inches below the surface.
Sometimes tho hole was ellipitical

sometimes 1t was triangular, measur'
ing 2 inches each way. The surface
Of the ground was usually cracked
and raised about an inch along the

THE passage o, the North sea, or

upon with dread by the navigators

call 1t the sea OF murder, In allusion
to the marine disasters with which
its history bristles. The captain OF
the liner whose destination Is Liver
pool or London feels that the perils
OF his voyage are practically over
when he reaches Queenstown. The
commanders Of the sister ships OF the
lost Elbe, on the other hand, realize
that the most dangerous part Of their
journey is yet to come, for ahead OF
them Is the narrow and crowded
English channel aud the equally
crowded and tempestuous North sea.
These unruly waters IRE open to the
fierce sweep OF the wind that is so

have experienced these marrow
