As ii every other feature OF nau-
teal life, hydrography has both its
interesting and its humorous side.
Many years ago the Graham sloal,
lying between Malta and Sicily,
gradually rose and rose until it
reached a height Of 80 feet above
the level Of the sea. OF course a
party was very soon dispatched to
annex and hoist the union jack on
the newly found islet. Years after
ward it was reported to have disap-
peared, and when her majesty s ship
Newport surveyed the spot IN 1865
a mass Of scoriac ashes was found
% fathonls under water. IN 1896,
while searching for the Helen sLoal
il the China sea, breakers were re-
ported from the masthead Of her
najesty's ship Dove, which imme
liately steamed toward the spot,
and every one on board the vessel
thought a shoal existed there. On &;
nearer approach, however, the sup
IOsGu bI6GktIS were SeSt1 ~ DC lluC
to a fight between Il whale and q
thrasher. -.. --..5. .....--.5 -.
Later Oh her n1ajesty's ship Chal-
lenger in the course Of her cruise
happened tu be III the neighborhocd
Of tie FIJI islands, when a peculiar
play Of the moonlight OH the water
was mistaken for al uncharted
shoal An unfamiliar rip was re-
sponsible for a similar mistake in
the China sea III 1889. Again, to-
ward the end of 1890 some mis-
chieyous fish caused a lot Of trouble
to a surveying expedition when her
majesty's ship Alert in December
of that year was engaged in ascer-
tanning the exact position Of lie
Rhin shoal, in the Pacific Breakers
were sighted, and upon making fo1
the supposed danger hundreds OF
large fish were discovered jumping
and throwing the water high W
into the air, and no bottom with SOC
fathoms Of line could he obtained.-

Curiosity.

Crowds representing innate hu-
man curiosity gather easily III large
cities A fairly good looking wagon
was driven hurriedly up to a place
on Diamond street one day recently,
says the St. Louis Globe Democrat.
Iii & moment two boards had been
placed across the top Of the vehicle.
The six Or seven men who stopped
to look on at the unusual proceeding
soon swelled to a thro1g when four
small pillows were brought out and
deposited on the boards "What's
up?" inquired tall, thin man, an
eager look i'll his eye, the remark
Icing addressed to a boy who had
tvift1y climbed pole From his
vantage point the youngster made
laconic answer, Dunno unless
man s sick OF dead in there
At this point the two men at work
brought out and placed squarely Oh
The pillows something which looked
very much like a stletcher. Every
body craned his OF her neck for the
next appearance OF the quiet work
men. The latter We're not long in
coming. Between them, walking
very carefully, they carried a large
mirror, which they placed Oh the
stretcher and then covered with a
white cloth. In another instant
| they had turned down toward Wood
street, and the most excited men in
the crowd looked dejectedly at each
other. a possible tragedy requiring
the coroner S presence, OF at least a
doctors, had been converted into a

Growth of the South.

Where the proud city Of Birming-
ham stands today there were in 1877
only wornout fields. Chattanooga
was dllapidated village Atlanta
still sat in the ashes Of the war.
Florida was almost as much Of a
wilderness IS in the days Of Spanish
rule Texas had made no impress
sion upon the worlds markets as
cotton producer. The states Of
Louisiana, Mississippi and Arkansas
were in poverty and despair because
Of the miseries Of the reconstruction
period. The coal and iron mines of
Tennessee, Alabama and Virginia
were practically undiscovered and
unopened. There was no serious
competition by any southern port
with New York and Boston for the
export and import trade. With a
single exception there was not one
great railroad system in the south,
and that did not touch the south
eastern part.
NGtily hSttAS t.Sc t4iC lI-a u1dC
ture Of cotton in the south was
wholly an infant industry, and cities
now known as textile working cen
tels were mere trading posts at the
crossroads. The fruit and vegeta-
bic business Of Florida was SO small
as to attract little attention, while
the fruit and melon business of
Georgia did not exist at all. South
e1n farmers then bought their corn
and meats instead of raising them
as they do now, and the cotton crop
