suftrages in support of legislative candidates who

tories a nine-hour day with ten-hour wage.
Colonel Colt puts low estimate on the intel

do not recognize this spasm of interest in the wei

The late General Trepoff held such high
positions in tho Russian court as TO give
probability TO the persistent rumor that
bar sinister royal blood flowed i'm his
veins He was brought up in the rough
school that teaches might as being SUI

by his friends. And yet when in calmer

ODD OCEAN WATERFALLS.
Salt Cataracts Formed by Rising Tides in British Co.,
 lunlbia.

There are a good many salt cataracts in existence. They may be found in Norway. southern Chili and British Columbia, where narrow fjords, or arms of the sea. are obstructed by bar riers of rock.
 The rising tide fiows over and filters through such reefs into the great natu- ral reservoirs beyond: but the water is held back at the ebb until it breaks over the obstruction in an irresistible torrent.
 Most curious of all is the waterfall at Canoe passage. where the island of Vancouver approaches the British Co., lumbia mainland. Here the flood tide from the gulf of Georgia to the south- ward is damned back ali a narrow cleft between two islands until it pours oyer in boiling cascade IS feet high, with perhaps double the volume of the Rhine.
 At the turn of the tide. however. the waters from the north rush back into the gulf. producing cascade of equal height and volume. This salt waterfall actually flows both ways.
