years imprisonment. 1t would seem that
an ATTEMPT on the life OF the chief execu-
tive should be more severely punished than
an attempt upon the life, OF a simple ctt-
zen. In monarchical countries such an act
Is high treason and punished capitally. We
could not make such an act high treason,
for the Constitution of the United States,
as well as those of all the States. restrict

DISAPPEARING WATERS.

Father Daull, a French missionary in
the heart of the dark continent, writes
from karema that. since 1879. the surface
of Lake Tanganyika has fallen twenty
five feet: with the result that along the
shore of the lake there is a belt of cult
waited ground over half a mile in width.
between the present waters edge and
that of twenty years ago. The level now
seems 10 be permanently fixed. Father
Daull does not not think that there has
been a shrnkage of the lake. but that
the present is it's normal level. and that
the previous higher level was owing to
one of the outlets being ClOgged up. His
opinion is, however, not shared by many
travellers. Scott Elliott. who made Il
careful investigation of the lake. found
evidences that at former period the
level was much higher than even in 1879,
and thinks that there has been great
shrnkage. Besides this latter idea is
only in keeping with the general tend
ency of African lakes. The RitWa lake.

twelve to twenty miles broad is known

Cuban Constitution and Philippine Bill
Are Urgent

Washington. Jan. 29.-At a cabinet
meeting today such information as was
at hand bearing upon the provisions of
the Cuban constitution, was laid before
the president. and it will be thoroughly
discussed about February 18th. when it
would be placed before congress.
1t is known that the president regards
prompt action in this matter as of great
Importance and would not hesitate to call
together an extra session to consider it,
should it appear necessary.
The need for prompt action on the
Spoonar Philippine bill is regarded as
scarcely less urgent than the disposition
% the Cuban constitution and the state
ment is made on high authority that in
the event of the failure of either Of these
measures to receive the consideration of
congress an extra session would be al
most inevitable.
