Beautiful Girl On the Lonely

The name, at any rate, has at last
been discovered Of the mysterious
and beautiful lady who. as recorded
in the London Express some time
ago. has been making her home on
the seashors in a lonely spot on the
Argyllshirs coast. She is Miss Mar
garet MacDougal But at that point
information ceases. Young and
singularly Attractive. with great
masses of h:c~n hair worn loose over
her shoulders. or lightly tied with
piece of ribbon. she has been resid-
ing on the Ardmaddy beach at high
water mnrk without shelter and with
out food of any kind save shellfsh.
She sleeps on the grass. and declines
sll offers OF food. clothing or money.
The most extraordinary stories are
current about the fair unknown, OF
which the following-supplied by a
local correspondent-Are a fair sam

the ball OF worsted never seems to

has been photographed several times,
but none of the photographs seem
alike, and she does not appear to
everybody the same.
TO some she appears to be about
"a years of age and to others about
double that age. She gives her name
as Margaret MacDougal, but nothing
is known as to where she comes from.
Ardmnddy, where she resides, has
been always famous as the rem

TWELVE MILES LONG.
The Simplon Tunnel viii b Bored
Through That Distance.
Some Of the Great Tunnels Of This
and Other Countries That Have
Taken Many Years aad AasA
Money to Dxeavats.

When the state Of Massachusetts
many a long year ago took up the
task of digging out the Hoossc tun-
mel, and the work dragged along in
the most tedious manner imaginable,
the wits of New England, and espe-
cially Oliver Wendell Holmes, made
countless jests about that dreadful
bore" which it seemed at one time
would never be completed. But with
an ample margin before the end OF
the last century it was opened to
railroad traffic, and 1t has been use
full ever since. The railroad COM
panies all over the continent have
been spending millions upon millions
Of dollars in the construction Of tun-
nels since the first excavation was
thrown open for the Hoosac subway.
But several Of the most dinicult and
costly tunnels of the globe have not
been finished by private corpora
tions. Governments have decided in
q number of instances that public
interests made it advisable that huge
amounts should be expended out Of
the public funds for the piercing Of
mountains and the building Of rail-
roads far below the surface OF the
earth. And note, says the New York
Tribune. how the scope and extent
of such enterprises have been on
larged and developed!
Before the first blast at the foot
Of the Hoosac hills was exploded the
drilling out Of passageway Of not
more than . mile In length. under q
considerable hill or q peak of mod
crate height, WAS regarded as Q for
midable task. The Hoossc hole was
about Ave miles in length, and 20
many years were spent before trains
were sent through 1t, and 80 many
millions Of dollars were thrown into
the pit, that several moss-grown
sages Of the old Bay state were in
clined to boast of it a. one Of the
seven wonders Of the modern world
But the Hoosac is no mighty affair
in comparison with the tunnels un-
der great mountain ranges in our
western territory and elsewhere.
Under the Alps especially has en-
cheering skill accomplished great
things. The Arlberg tunnel 10 half
dozen miles in length. the Mont
Cenis nearly eight, the St. Gothard
more than nine. while the Simplon,
now under wny, is almost twice as
long as the Arlberg. half longer
than the Mont Cents and almost o
third longer than the st. Gothard. 1t
is expected that the Simplon will be
open for traffic in 1904. The barrier
Of the Alps as an obstruction TO
swift and easy travel to and from
Italy il almost done away with.
What obstacles will discourage the
engineers of future generations when
those of to-day are so eager to dig
out tunnels l2 miles long thousands
OF feet beneath the SUBMITS Of snow
capped mountains?

King Edward VII. Of England has

Although he knew that his skirts
were clean he felt perturbed never
