THREE QUEER CITIES.
naoh One IL Built on IsIasds Connestsd
By Many Bridges.


By Many Bridges.
The city Of Ghent, in Belgium, 10
built on 90 islands These islands are
connected with each other by so
bridges. The city has 800 streets and 80
public squares II is noted for being the
birthplace Of Charles Y and Of john Of
Gaunt, whom Shakespeare called "tima
honored Lancaster. - and as the scene of
the paciication of Ghent Nov. 8, 1879,
and of several instructions. sieges and
executions of we'll known personages IL
is associated with American history by
the treaty made there Dec. "a, 1914,
terminating the second war between
England and the United States, known
IS the war Of 1919.
Amsterdam, In Holland, is built on
piles driven far below the water into
the earth. The city is intersected by
many canals, which are spanned by
nearly 800 Lridges, and resemble Ven.
fee in the mingling of land and water.
though it is considerably larger than
that city. The canals divide the city,
which is about ten miles in circumfer-
ence, into 90 islands.
The city of Venice is built on so
islets, which are connected by nearly
400 bridges. Canals serve for streets in
Venice, and boats, called gondolas, for
carriages. The bridges are, as a rule,
very steep. rising considerably in the
middle, but lave easy steps. The cir.
conference Of the city is about eight
miles The venetians joined the LON.

peror, and, in l177, gained great VIC
tory in defense of Pope Alexander Ill
ever the feet Of war vessels headed by
Otto, son Of Frederic Barbarossa. In
gratitude for this victory the pope gave
the Doge ziani ring, and instituted
the world famous ceremony Of Venice
Marrying the Adriatic Sea. 4" In this
ceremony the doge, rs the chief ruler Of
Venice used TO be termed, with appro-
pirate ceremonies dropped ring into
the sea every year in recognition Of
the wealth and trade carried to Venice
by the Adriatio.

The Oklahoma Battalion 20 Do Retai,.ed IN
the Serrlee

Under the decision Of the war de-
partnent the Oklahoma battalion
under Major John r. Stone, at Fort
Reno will not be disbanded, but re-
tanned in the service. II is highly
likely that this splendid body of troops
will yet be assigned TO Gen. Lees com.
mand and taken TO Cuba or 10 Porto
Rico This will give the boys the
active service they so much desire, Tor
in either place they will find plenty OF
actual soldering and possibly more or
less lighting 70 do. Some Of the dis.
patches say these troops will soon be
ordered to rendezvous at Lexington,
Ky. which is strong indication that
they are to accompany Gen. Lee 10
Cuba. II so-and there seems to be
little doubt OF it-a sojourn OF couple
OF years in the Antilles will be a de
lightful diversion and not without its
pleasures.
