A KAISER'S BAD BARGAIN,

Great Britain snapped of the island
of Hehgoland, in the north sea. to the
German emperor for certain conces-
sioIs in Africa. The kaiser got the
worst Of the bargain, for the whole
Island seems to be melting RAPIDLY
into the sea. Besides being exposed
TO the full violence of storm waves.
Heligoland has in its soil a liberal
amount OF salt which dissolves rapid
~. The Isle Of Man is also melting
away. And recently a deputation OF
land owners from the east coast of
England went to ask Premier Balfour
to do something" The sea. it seems.
is stealing their land. Some twenty
years ago Prof. Phillips made careful!
calculations, which showed that the
thiTty-six miles OF Yorkshire coast be-
tween Marlborough and Spurn Head
lost annually two yards and a quarter,
or thirty acres year. Over one mile
in breadth has been lost since the
Norman conquest, and two since the
occupation Of York by the Romans.

Madison. June 3,

MaQ1SOn, June :.
June, the month Of roses, is ushered
in this year by cold and distant May.
We are glad that May is gone.
The very beginning of the past
month was inauspicious. The first day
was day of freeze and thaw and the
next seven were not much better. Dur
ing all this time the mercury never
went above IS days and was mostly in
the thirties and forties. The cold
drizzles of this period were very dis
agreeable.
Damp weather prevailed during the
next five days but the temperature rose
steadily. The middle of the month
was dry and the temperature remained
steady after little fall on May IA
and Is.
The 21st and 22d were phenomenally
damp, but they cannot be compared
with the 9th and 2Sth. Their record
of continuous rainfall of 267 inches
will stand good for a long while to
come.
The total precipitation of the month
was some four inches.
Below is a tabulated list Of maxi
mum and minimum temperatures for
the various days of May:

At one time here were three
brothers by the name of Washburn
representing as many states iii the
thirty-siXth congress, and a fourth
brother came following after. Three
of the Washburns were governors of
states at the same time. But an even
stranger instance was that of the Fes-
sender family, which had three
brothers in the thirty-seventh con-
gress from the same state-William
Pitt Fessenden of Portland, Me-;
Samuel c. Fessenden of Rockland,
and Thomas D. Fessenden of Auburn,
and they were all men of distinction.
Then we might mention the Stephen
son brothers, who represented Wiscon-
sin and Michigan. There was never
a father and son in congress together,
but members of the same family have
several times succeeded each other in
both the senate and the house.

PEOPLE OF PROMINENCE

Friends of John Kendrick Bangs are
surprised to learn that he had resigned
as editor of the Metropolitan magazine.
The position was worth $4,000 a
year. Some time ago he contracted to
write the book Of comic opera in
collaboration with r. c. Perkins for
Miss Mabelle Gilman. A. Baldwin
Sloane was engaged to write the music.
The plot revolves about the old
