The Charm Of Victoria rails.


How the Victoria falls impress WIS.,

iOsli's Journal OF a tour IN South Africa.
Miss Macintosh says: I'VE perceived
no hint of the falls, only seeing before
us screen Of rocky based, bright green
forest, apparently closing In the river,
like lake. Ten minutes walk brought
us to the camp, on cliff which liter
ally overhung the gorge, and we saw
the cataract laundering down into the
boiling pot at our feet. The walls of
the chosm. 400 feet high, were spanned
by n rainbow. The charm of these falls
lies not In the one overwhelming crash
as at Niagara, but In the cumulative eff
feet of various gllmpses, the matchless
beauty of the surroundings and the
strangeness of the whole setting, but
chiefly I'm the columns of spray, called
the "thundering smoke" and In the
ever changing rainbows. The mile wide
river suddenly drops into yawnlng
crack I'm the ground, stretching right
across the stream at right angles to
the banks, foamlng trough, quite
narrow, OF which the walls rose 400
feet above the surface OF the water"

In this country swans are but little
seen, except in public parks, but they
are coming into increasing favor on
private estates, as they give the finish

quarters than they would have at

their open air Jail seldom occurs to
them, and even II 1t did there is no
place where they could find refuge. The

honor. and were a prisoner to escape
the population Of Cettinje would soon

ST. SWlTHlN'S DAY.

that IL II rains on that date the sue

days will likewise be pleasant. The su-
perstition is venerable, for one old his

holy bishop Of Winchester. about the
year 500 was called the weeping st.

sepe and Aselli, rainy consultations.

rain"
Another version OF the story In TINT
the good bishop loft orders Mt his death
that he should be buried in the open
churchyard and not In the chancel.
The monks, however, disobeyed the
wishes OF their dead and laid him to
rest on July 10 within the minister.
whereupon rain fell heavily and con-
tinually till on the fortieth day the Of
Tending priests became alarmed and
hastened to fulfil their dead bishops
request.
Statistics furnished by the officials
at Greenwich observatory discredit the
accuracy of the whole tale. The figures
for one period Of twenty years go to
show that the greater number of rainy
days after st. Swithin's day followed a
dry July II.
