Dogs are to be used as river police
on the Seine in Paris. Twenty New
foundlands, warranted to save the ap-
parently drowning. are allotted to as
many gendarmes, and it is hoped that
in consequence the rate of suicide will
decrease in the French capital
Giraffes in geological gardens seem
to be aware of their pecuniary value
and ready to take advantage of it. Fail
ing their natural diet of leaves, which
they strip from the trees with their
long, black prehensile tongues. they eat
only the finest clover hay. Moreover,
they are lazy. wasteful brutes, spilling
the hay on the floor of their paddock
and rarely troubling to recover it. For
this reluctance. however, their proven
bal fastidiousness may be partly re-
sponsible. Only an occasional onion,
apple or lump OF sugar pleases them
apart from their hay and there is even
a belief that, fond as giraffe is of a
whole apple. nothing will induce it to
eat one from which it's keeper first
takes bite.
An instance of the possibility of liv-
ing under snowdrift is recorded dur
ing severe storms in England. On Dec.
8 large flock of sheep belonging to
cattle dealer of Garsdale were out on
the open moor. The shepherds with
their dogs collected the sheep and drove
them to a more sheltered locality,
dreading threatening storm which
soon followed: One sheep, however,
escaped and made it's way back to the
pasture, where it was overtaken by the
heavy fall of snow and imbedded in it.
There it remained until the snow melt
ed, when the shepherds were aston
ished to find it alive and well. 1t had
stayed under the snow for twenty-five
days. On it's release it was found per-
fectly able to walk home, distance of
a mile and half. 1t is curious to note
that this same animal had undergone
similar burial in November, when 1t
was showed up for ten days.

man who played the cello, came for

conduct her to small retreat where
members of the profession were served
by themselves.
She rose with relief at his appear
ance, when, to her surprise, Cobb sud
denly stepped forward, and with
slight bow to Maroni explained that
Miss Whitney had promised him the
honor of serving her, and before she
knew what to say, Cobb was bending
over her in the conservatory.

streets. the hub of the business section.
Outside of this district there is COM
parative ease of movement for both
pedestrian and wagon traffic.
To offer partial remedy for the ills
affecting the city a proposition was
made to the Council for an under
ground telephone service that would
rid Chicago of the Bell monopoly. 1t was
received kindly and permit given to
construct the necessary conduits.
Then opposition began to show itself.
A clause was inserted in the franchise
forbidding the new concern to tear up
bit of pavement. or to disturb the
surface of the roadways in any man
rer under pain of forfeiture of its en-
tire plant.
This was about two years ago, and
since there has been no sign of any
work being done. Not a foot of street
pavement had been torn up, and when
the word was given out not long ago
that seven miles of large sized tunnels
had been built under the business Sec
ton of Chicago and were ready for use,
everybody excepting the men directly
interested in the work was astounded
AS opposition was feared, the work
has been done quietly. Easements were
rented at convenient intervals along
the line and the work of excavation be
gun. Men were put to digging, and the
earth taken out was hauled up and
carted away at night through the coal
holes in the sidewalks, so that it did
not attract attention. In the daytime
there was not sign to indicate to the
thousands Of pedestrians that any un-
usual work was in progress, but every
hur of the twenty-four, day and night,
hundreds of men were digging away

of the street.

Although constructed ostensibly for
the accommodation of telephone wires,
this will in reality be a small part of a
new enterprise. It's subways are Of
such size that small cars can be run
through them, and on these it is pro-
posed to transport the mails from the

Cases In Which the Camera Has Come
TO the Aid of Justice.
Photography Is every year proving
its usefulness as friend of justice
and enemy OF crime A writer in Tit
Bits describes case of diamond theft
N Calcutta. In which no evidence
against the arrested person could be
found A policeman familiar with the
artifces of the native criminals sug-
gested that an X-ray photograph be
taken Of the mans throat The test
revealed the hidden diamond By
trick which Hindu jewel thieves learn
after severe practice, the fellow had
.'side-swalIowed" the stone.
A little more than year ago some
evidence that smugglers IN Buenos
Ayres were receiving gems through the
mails put the authorities on the watch.
Postal matter in transit could not be
legally opened, but on suspicion sixty
six registered letters and parcels We're
examined by the X-ray and found to
contain twenty thousand dollars worth
o. precious stones. The dishonest traf-
fc was stopped. and large sum was
saved to the customs revenue.
A person taking fong-distance views
from one of the upper windows of
tall building In Rochester. N. Y,
caught the picture Of passing mar
ket-wagon with a man behind in the
act of lifting tub of butter from the
load. The thief got away with his
booty unnoticed by the driver or any
one on the street, but the photograph,
when sufficiently enlarged, identified
and convicted him.
A marine view taken by a passenger
on foreign steamer in the harbor OF
Rio de Janeiro included small yacht.
Two men, Grayson and Linares, had
gone out in the yacht that morning.
Only Grayson returned alive. He said
his companion had fallen from the mast
and been killed; but his story was not
believed, and he was tried and SEN
fenced as murderer. The trial had
been pretty fully reported in the pa
pers, and one day it occurred to the
photographer to apply powerful glass
to his picture, in order to discover the
character of small dark mark on the
sail Under the magnifier the spot on
the sail proved to be the figure of a
falling man. He reported his discov-
cry, and as soon as it had been off,
cially verified Grayson was released.
A similar timely discovery was made
after the village tragedy known as
"The Cooper Murder" in Lancashire,
England. Cooper, apprentice to Nc
Kenna, blacksmith, was found dead
on the floor of the latter's shop. and
the coroner's jury brought in verdict
of suicide. An amateur photographer
who had been through the village TAX
ing snapshots on the day of Cooper's
death, developed his films, and one OF
them showed the smithy with par
tial view of the interior through the
open door, revealing evidence which
caused McKenna's arrest-and his final
confession of the murder.
Complaints are heard against the
as nuisance. and undoubtedly
the owners sometimes abuse their privi-
lege. but cases multiply in which its
use Is beneficent. and even its acci-
dental work proves valuable.

also Sir Kenneth Mackenzie Douglas

Sir Alexander Cockburn-C Campbell, of

and Sir William Brown, of Colstoun.
resides in New South Wales.
Lord Fairfax makes his permanent

Remarkable Feat of En- gineering Skill

Three distinct and unusual features

Of the most extraordinary triumphs of
engineering skill ever accomplished 1t
Is unique in design, mammoth in size
and the methods of construction and
ultimate use are decidedly novel.
Chicago is most peculiar city. While
1t covers an area of 1874 square miles, a
large portion of which is sparsely popu-

of mile square. Within these narrow
limits are the great wholesale houses,
banks, department stores, office build

The result Is bewildering confusion

the roadways are~choked with street
cars, delivery wagons and heavy drays.
All this within a radius of six blocks
