THREE QUEER CITIES.
Each One Is Built on Islands Connected
by Many Bridges.

Each One Is Built on Islands Connected
by Many Bridges.
The city of Client, in Belgium, is
built ON 26 islands. These islands are
connected with each other by 80
bridges. The city has 800 streets and 80
public squares. 1t is noted for being the
birthplace of Charles V and of John Of
Gaunt, whom Shakespeare called thine
honored Lancaster. and as the scene of
the p~acification of Client Nov. s, 1876,
and of several instructions, sieges and
executions Of we'll known personages. It
is associated with American history by
the treaty made there Dec. "a, 1914,
terminating the second war between
England and the United States, known
as 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 bridges, and resembles Ven
ice 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 80 islands.
The city Of Venice is built on 80
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 have easy steps. The cir
oumference of the city is about eight
miles. The Venetians joined the LON.
bard League against the German en-
peror, and, in 1177, gained a great vic
tory in defense Of Pope Alexander III,
over the feet Of war vessels headed by
Otto, son of Frederic Barbarossa. In
gratitude for this victory the pope gave
the Doge Zian. a ring, and instituted
the world famous ceremony of "Venice
Marrying the Adriatic Sea-" In thil
ceremony the doge, as the chief ruler O!
Venice used to be termed, with appro
pirate ceremonies dropped a ring int
the sea every year in recognition O
the wealth and trade carried to Venic,
by the Adriatic.

bluff. I'm here to git in line to do up

The officer picked up a pen and pre-

he said, "why''-

the boys had to say, but when my vito
