The hands of the clock were at 1920

and displaying a sea of shirt bosom, gave
three sharp cracks of the gavel in pre-
liminary effort to restore order The at

but his injunction was rapidly carried IN
to effect by a band of officials who
swept down the aises with more Vigor
than ceremony. murmer of curiosity

A Predicted Result of Cutting the Isthmus
 of Panama.
 "The best scientific authorities pre- dict dire effects from the cutting of canal through either the Isthmus of Panama or Tehuantepec. The late George R. Marsh said of this that "a new ice period might be occasioned by the withdrawal of so important source of warmth from the northern zones,' and Sir John Herschel wrote: Were the Isthmus of Panama broken through there is no doubt that the whole climate of our island Great Britain) would un- dergo most notable deterioation.' The sum of $9,O00,O0O. has been voted by the legislature of the state of New York for improving the Erie canal sys- tenn; the Hennepin canal has had S1,- 00,0O0 spent on it, and work has stopped until new appropriations can be made. Matt Quay is using his influence for the construction of a ship canal from Pitts burgh to Lake Erie, to cost SIC, ,OO0 ,O00, and ship canal from Philadelphia to New York, besides advocating the ex- penditure of $5O, ,OOO, ,OOO in canalizing the Ohio and Mississippi rivers. One of the most stupendous of these engineering works is the Chicago drainage canal, now in progress, which is to cut the divide which bars the way between Chicago and the Mississippi river. The distance is only 30 miles between Lake Miahic-ap and tho TJJ;po;r r;xa, o,,5 o-a can easily see the startling nature of union of the great lakes and the father of waters.'"

HUNG IN MlDAIR.
The PerilOus Plight of a Soldier in Ch aHs nese Thibet,

The Her1lOus Flight of Soldier in Cht- ist nese Thibet.
 H>An amusing story is told of the Eng fish officer who determined to enter Chinese Thibet by stratagen. He man. aged to cross the frontier at night, and so escaped the guard.
 On the following day, however, while the officer was, journeying deeper into Thibet, the Thibetan soldiers overlook him, and informed him that as the country was unsafe because of rob !. bers, they would go with him in order to protect him, to which arrangement :. the traveller was compelled to agree. In few hours they came to river, which was crossed by rope bridge. ; The Thibetans passed over first, in or der to show that the bridge was safe, and then the official got into the moose and was pulled along by the Thibetans, Suddenly, however, they ceased pull ing, and left the Englishman hanging in midair above the rushing torrent.
 In vain the officer shouted to the Thibetans to pull. They merely smoked and nodded their heads. The hours passed, and still the officer hung above the torrent. At last the Thibetans agreed to pull him back if he would leave Tibet immediately. This, of course, he was compelled to do, and took his departure from the forbidden land.

Kleptomaria.

To believe French writer, there are
 no fewer than four thousand women caught every year in stealing during their shopping expeditions, habit eu- phoniously styled kleptomania. The number of titled ladies seized with this strange malady while examining the fashions of Paris, he tells us, is incred- ible. Among the most recent culprits were a Russian duchess, French countess, an English duchess and the daughter of reigning sovereign. As a rule, these distinguished offenders are let off on the payment of round sum for the relief of the poor; when the shoplifter is known to be rich, the sum extracted rises to as much as ten thousand francs. The police authori- ties consent to this sort of conformation.
