ally looked. But this much is sure:
that the men who built it were wonder
full mechanics, almost as ingenious in
their way as the builders of the Pyra-
mlds. 1t seems certain that the outer
circle, about 100 feet in diameter, orig
lnally consisted of thirty upright
stones, with the Hanging stones" from
which the Saxons gave the place it's
name balanced on top with a wonder
full nicely. Only seventeen of the up
right stones are standing, and only
six of the hanging stones are in place.
Inside the circle is another composed
of smaller stones and within these two
circles are the five great upright
stones, forming horseshoe, sur
rounding what appears to have been an
altar. AS the large blocks are any,
where from sixteen to twenty-one feet
high, and as one of them weighs seven
ty tons, it is a matter of wonder how
the ancient children of nature, having
no machinery, we're able to drag these
stones from their original resting
places and put them in place; at any

that he probably did not anticipate.
Antiquarian and tourist England has
risen up in wrath, and has delivered
itself in effect of this utterance: 1.-The
government is not going to pay you an
exorbitant price for precious relics
which ought to have belonged to the
people long ago, but you may be GER
tain that Stonehenge is going to stay
exactly where it is and be kept in good
condition, and unless you are willing
to accept fair price for it, we shall
see to it that the next parliament
passes forthwith a bill enabling the
government to pre-empt all such sacred
ground, and make sure hereafter that
our historic monuments shall be pre-
served to the people,"
Nobody knows what Stonehenge is
or who built it. 1t used to be ascribed
to the Druids, but there are indications
that even in their time the temple, or
whatever it originally was intended to
be, was as much of mystery as it is
today. It probably dates back before

three cylinders with their valve chests
form a single large casting placed in
the top of the forward end Of the
boiler. The steam passes directly
from the boiler to the central steam
chests, and thence to the outside chests,
while the three-throw crank shaft
(made of single forging) has cranks
120 degrees apart, fitted with three
pairs of eccentrics. Since the point of
cutoff is carried late enough to always
insure admission Of the steam to two
cylinders, the starting of a heavy load
is insured. The driving wheels, which
areseight feet in diameter and weigh
four tons each, are built up around a

Welded HIS MoTHER-lN-LAW,


Peculiar Matrimonial Mix-Up Reported
+ from Alabama. S
There was peculiar case reporteG
by the Tampa Tribune's Alabama COZ
respondent in a recent issue. Accord Z
Ing to the story young man of that
state, in order to keep in control oil
certain property left by his deceased(
wife, yielded to the unusual tempta<}
ton and performed the remarkable
feat of marrying his mother-in-law. 5
There's a brilliant opening on the
platform for that fellow. He is enti-
tied to the distinguished consideration
of curious world. The columns of
the yellow journals could be his to
command. AS museum attraction
he would be a gold mine to any mana
ger. Think Of the absolute rashness,
the reckless daring Of such step.
What laureled hero, in war or peace,
has surpassed it? Here is a man, young
and good looking, with bright fu-
ture before him, who, without hesita-
ton, without murmur Of protest,
real estate, has deliberately leaped into
the arms of his mother in law-tied
up to her in life, placed himself per-
manently in her power, burned all the
bridges OF escape, and laughed we'll
founded tradition to scorn. This Ala
bama experiment may have a great ef-
feet on the future of the human race.
HITHERTO, the mere existence of the
mother in law has been the greatest
deterrent influence to the matrimonial
lnclinations of both sexes. Particu-
larly in the case of every man who
has found himself on the threshold
OF proposal to the object of his idol
airy has the question arisen, not, Can
l afford to support wife," but Can
l afford to acquire mother in law"
After marriage she has been, too Of
ten the serpent that spoiled the hyme-
neal Eden. But the Alabama young
man, by his bold stroke of originality,
may change all this. He may succeed
in giving the lie to precedent. He
may find the position of stepfather to
his former wife sinecure. AS acting
grandfather to his own children he
may make a brilliant record, and
should the second union result in off,
spring, he may find much mental en-
joyment in the realization that he is
the father of his eldest sons uncle or
the fond parent of his youngest daugh-
ter's aunt. So we will watch the ca
reer OF the Alabama curiosity with
much interest. It may result in a COM
plete vindication of the much abused
mother in law We hope it will be
so; but, even as we hope, the voices
of all history, the teaching of all ex-
perience, tell us that we hope in vain.
