LAKE MIcHIGANs S DIRT WAVE.
Twice a Year a Long Line of Rub
bish Appears Along the
West shore.

"Did you ever notice the dirt waveY
asked an old fisherman at the Sixty
ninth street dock the other day, as he
pointed to long black streak on the
lake. which looked like the line Of the
horizon.
"a peculiar thing is that dirt wave, y
continued the old man, examining his
hook, "and for many year I've been
puzzled about it,"
Upon being asked TO tell something
about the dirt wave by the Chicago
Democrat reporter, he said
"Neu, that wave comes about twice
year as regular as the season, and
never fails to reach this side of the lake
during the month of April. Where IL
comes from can't exactly understand
and how the rubbish which it carries
sticks together is a mystery to me.
You viii notice, he continued, that
as far as you can see in either direction
the dirt wave reaches.
"The dirt doesn't travel as fast a;
common waves, another thing ! don'i
understand, and it'll be "a hours be
fore it reaches the shore
What is the dirt composed ofY'
"Why, just common rubbish. Sticks
wooden boxes, old newspapers mixed
up with sort Of mortar of dust and
marine plants. I'll bet that wave is i0'
milon tsag.'

YOU WALK VERY FAST.
This Authority Has II That ss,S3o
Miles an Hour IL About Your
Usual Gait.

Have you ever thought Of the distance
you travel while you are out rSr an
hours stroll7
Possibly you walk three miles in an
hour, but that does not represent the
distance you travel. The earth turns
on its axis every "a hours. In round
figures call the earth's circumference
$4,000 miles, and you must have Travelled
during your hours stroll a thousand
miles in the axial turn of the earth
saws the New York World.
But this is not ALL The earth makes
a journey round the sun every year
Put the distance of our planet from the
sun at $4,000, 900 miles. The diameter
is therefore 1s4.OO0,OOo miles, and the
circumference described by the earth
SIS ,ooo. 900 miles. In other words, the
earth travels around the sun each day
1,5s4.Oo0 miles. and every hour-for in
stance. the hour during which you took
your walk-the earth moved through
$4,000 miles.
So. adding your three miles Of les
travel to the hours axial movement o'
the earth. this TO the earth's orbita
journey and that again TO the earth'i
excursion with the sun. and you vii
find you have Travelled within the houl
5000 miles.

CHANCE TO BE A KING.
II Il only Necessary 10 Buy one OF
These Islands and Lord IL
over the People.

Here was a great chance for people
wishing to become independent landed
proprietors. The French government
offers for sale some of the little i"lands
situated at the entrance Of the. bay of
ST. Malo, on the coast Of Brittany.
Formerly. when the famous French
pirates Jacques Cartier and Sourcouf
brought down the wrath Of the English
on their heads by their acts of daring,
the victims tried to get near enough to
st. Malo TO throw frebrands and to dis
charge cannon into the town. but they
were never able TO succeed in passing
the islands.
The French government has taken
away the cannon from the fortified
walls of Gouchce, La Plata La hon
fleress and one or two other of these
blocks. The state. which is always
short of money. found it needless ex
pense to keep up this property and Sc
offers IL for sale.
The Inhabitants Of St. Malo are very
uneasy and diseontented at the pro
ceeding. And not without cause. for
no restrictions having been put upoI

practically their king. be his national

MET LAST NIGHT TO RECONSIDER
THE MATTER OF SELLING LAND.
A meeting Of the Trustees OF the
Common was held last evening to re-
consider the vote OF the last speciaI
meeting in regard to the land wanted
by the Pennsylvania Railroad Com
pany- In the absence Of the president
DR.. J. j. Black. Mr. Mahoney was call
ed to the chair
he jury appointed by the Pennsyl-
wanna Railroad Company to appraise
the land vasued it at $780, The trus-
tees have sold the same kind of land
to private parties for $500, and see no
reason why they should reduce the fig
ure for the railroad company.
Mr.. Morrison said the land was worth
$500, and that he, for one, wou.d not
vote to sell it for any less.
Mr.. Rodney stated that 1t was harly
worth while to haggle abc-. the price,
for if sherif's jury wele appointed
1t would take the difference to pay
them.
Mr.. McGrory said that he was will
ing to hold 1t for the peop,e of New
Castle. He Thought that the trustees
ought to have something to say in the
business.
Mr. Rodney moved to reconsider the
vote in regard to the award of th.
railroad. 1t was seconded and
the vote taken sustained ths
previous vote by to 3. The commit

An Eastern Man Tells About the DIFF

the Gas Region.

In the west the unexpected Is apt te
happen remarked an eastern man who
had Just returned from a business trip
through the northwestern states, "and
no one expresses or apparently feels
any surprise at the most unlooked-for
events. Now. where could such an oc-
currenee happen, for instance. az the
following except in a country like ours:
AT the hotel where l was stopping
in town in Indiana o party of men
were seated at cards. Draw poker was
the game, and the betting was lively.
At the last drawing one of the party
found to his satisfaction that he held
straight flush, but just at that mo-
ment there was sharp report; a second
one. much more violent than the first,
tore open the floor OF the smoking
room, and the party of men dropped
into the cellar.
1T was an explosion of natural gas,
little episode which frequently hap
pens. am told, in the gas regions. Al
though considerably bruised, not one
Of the party fortunately was seriously
hurt, and each man held with charae-
teristic western imperturbability his
cards.
"'I cau,' said the holder of the
straight flush. as If the unpleasant lit.
Sic occurrence OF being dropped sudden
" into the cellar had never happened
whereupon the others showed their
hands by the light of their fuses, and
assisted the lucky winner to find tho
stakes, which were scattered all ovei
