Near ArgostoIi. a town on one of the
Greek islands, four little torrents OF
sea water. rolling on an average hfty-
five gallons second, penetrate into
the assures of the cliffs. dOw rapidly
inland and finally gradually disappear
into the crevices OF the soil Two OF
these winter courses are sufficiently
powcrfuI to turn all the year round the
wheels OF two mills constructed by
an enterprising Englishmnn This
seems at first sight absurd on the face
OF If. but it Is quite easily explained.
The hills of the Island are of soft. cal
careous rock, full OF assures, aud suck
I'M water like Immense sponges- In
consequence tho pools in their subter-
ranean caverns are always lower than
the surrounding sea, so TO restore the
balance these little brooks, fed by the
waves. are always descending inland.
The curious yet natural result OF the
constant evaporation of the sea water
ia that gigantic masses of salt crystals
are constantly forming in the caves

complete the work is variouslv estimated
but undoubtedly it will exceed by several
years the time required to build the water,
way with system of locks. 1t is con-
coded generally though that this type OF
canal has superior advantages in many
ways and that it is especially fitted for a
section in which an earthquake such as
caused the demolition of San Franciso
would have no less serious effect on a
lock canal. There can be no extrava
gance about building the Canal according
to the best plans, even if they are the
most expensive, but any favoring of the
giant industries of this country at the
expense of the people is an outrageous
extravaganza that the people who pay
should be quick to resent. To buy sup
plies in the markets of the world and to
give out the work of the construction OF
the canal by private contract are the
fundamental conditions now of building
the canal economically and expeditiously.

NEWSPAPERS IN SCOTLAND.

Il Ii Sometimes q Very Difficult Mat
ter to Buy One.
The American custom of glancing
over the morning paper as you sip your
coffee at breakfast goes with you
abroad, but it Is no simple thing al
ways to get morning paper. On COM
Ing down to breakfast the first morning
IN Edinburgh, found there was no
paper to be had, but, thinking it was
simple matter to buy Scotsman on
the street, / went out on Princes street
and walked three blocks without the
sight of a newsboy. where can I get
the morning Scotsman" l said to
policeman. He thought for moment.
"Weel," said he, there's a great news
shop ABBOTT three blocks up, and We
might find one there" / followed the
direction and found myself in large
news distributing depot. There We're
stacks and stacks Of newspapers and
magazines all about. 81 would like the
mornings Scotsman" said. The man
in charge looked bewildered. "Pll see,"
he said, "if we have one" He fumbled
around little while, and then went
back into the rear of the store for fully
three minutes. At last he came back,
saying, 1--WE haven't one" "Well," 1
said, this is about the strangest thing
I have seen. Can't get the morning pa
per here In Edinburgh" "No," he said,
'ye'll find it diffeecult." 'What do
they publish papers here for, anyway"
/ rejoined. do they want to keep
them out Of the hands Of the people2
Don't they want people to read them?
Do they print papers to keep the news
secret? He bridled at once. 81 want
We to understand" he said, ''that the
Scotsman is not published for the
general publeek; it's published for the
subscreebers."
The Scotsman, you know, probably
ranks next to the London Times.
"Well," said, this is all new to me.
In my country publishers want to have
their newspapers read. They want to
sell all they can. They don't try to
keep them out of the hands Of the gen
eral publeek.' Can you tell me where
1 can get one, for I want to see the
morning paper, though perhaps l shall
have to get letter of Introduction to
buy one?" "Weel," he answered,
there's a woman about hundred
yards from here that takes the Scots
man. She might sell you hers" Itook
the direction carefully, found the wo-
man who took the Scotsman-she kept

Servian peasants help each other by
means of an institution known as the
moba. A man who has not hands suf-

in the moba-that is to say, invites all
his neighbors to come and help him.
He pays nothing for this service, pro-
viding only generous supplies Of food

ply for the moba 1t is understood that
he will take his turn.

The investigations of the Interstate
Commerce Commission have served to
make public some of the transactions OF
the Pennsylvania railroad, concerning
car distribution and gifts of coal-compauy
stock. These revelations of graft are
merely the confirmation of what the
public has repeatedly charged but lacked
the facts to actually prove.
Admissions have been made by the
transportation company's own officials OF
determinations in favor of those coal
companies who by brides in the form OF
gifts of stock obtained favors in the allot-
ment of cars. etc. ce-pfesident Pugh
has verified this by admitting that the
Pennsylvania railroad company used its
discretion as to the facilities granted to
the owners of coal lands along its lines,
practically deciding who was to be allow
ed to do business and who not. and the
quantity of coal to be shipped. virtually
controlling both price and supply.
The result OF the investigation has
given wonderful impetus to the demand
for government control of the railroads
aud other public utilities. which is stead,
ing winning support as the remedy foi
the abuses which long suffering public
has at lsst begun to demand shall be
recti6ed.

I. Edward Addicks, who for fifteen
years or more has striven by every means
known to the political trickster to make
himself United States Senator from Della
ware, announces that he will retire from
the fight, or at least will abide ny the
decision of a caucus of the republican
Legislators of the State and as she lacks
votes enough to control the caucus, it
would appear that his declaration was
equivalent to capitulation. Addick's
surrender is attributed to fear of demo
cratic triumph in the State, but Addicks-
ism and trickery are so synonymous that
few there are who attach much credence
to his declaration, the public generally
not looking for the Diamond States
emancipation from the political thraldom
of Addickism, but rather for the colored
individual in the Senatorial woodpile.

VAMPIRE BATS.
They Are Fond of Veal Blood and
Cause Death of Many Calves.

Cause Death of Many Calves.
Vampire bats are found by thousands
in Veragas and Ciriqui. They are par
ticularly fond of veal blood, but older
stock and horses, colts, mules and bur-
ros all suffer. l did not catch YAM
pire at his work, though I saw hun
dreds of them, but the cattlemen all
tell the same story. The vampire set
ties somewhere ON the back Of the
beast in the pasture at night and then,
while slowly tanning it's wings to and
fro, cuts a circular piece of skin one
quarter of an inch in diameter.
Through this hole he sucks the blood
till satisfied.
One wound would be of little conse-
quence, nor would the loss of blood do
much damage were that all, but half a
dozen vampires may feast on one poor
calf or on the back of saddle horse
in one night. The calf is badly weak
ened by the loss of blood, while sad
die horse so served is worthless until
the wounds are entirely healed. But
that is not the worst result Of the bite.
The region swarms with a pestiferous
fly that soon after daylight finds the
wound and lays eggs in it. Unless the
wound is properly cleaned and dressed
with a waxy salve within forty-eight
hours after the vampires attack the
animal will be destroyed by the prog
eny of the fly. The percentage of
calves thus killed is large in spite of
the watchfulness of the COW herders.-

FRIDAY, MAY IS, 1905.

After a wrangle extending over period
of 10 days the United States Senate on
Friday passed the Railroad rate bill, there
being but three negative votes. The
compromises and bargains leading up to
the passage of the bill have stripped it to
such an extent of its intended regulating

tized as having been robbed of its teeth,
and is but a make-believe of what the
people hoped would be enacted into law.

IOLANIS vs.. Y. N. {. A.

This fixture took place on Saturday
at the Baseball Park and was holly
contested from start to finish.
Fine combination by the Iolani
right wing took play into their rivals
quarters where Blackman outwittinS
or players eliminated his tricky
play by opening the scoring for his
side. This early reverse made tho
Y. NJ. c. A. get down to business and
they pressed for some considerable
time until 0ss eventually equaliged
with a pretty effort. Play thereafter
became intensely exciting and ranged
from goal to goal. j. Anderson for the
Blues sent in hot shot which Beard
more partly saved by listing out but
from the rebound OF Anderson the ball
glided into the meta somewhat lucky
point for the lolanls. Y. NJ. c. A. then
monopolized the attack and the Blues
defence had some little difficulty In
clearing their lines-tbeiy rivals spirit
ed attacks continuing but without sue
cess until half-time arrived.
Resuming strongly, the Christians
had nearly all the play In this half but
the Iolani defence was generally too
good for the opposing forwards. TAX
ing advantage Of a lull In the attack
the Blues broke away and taking tbs
ball down field Anderson scored a
beauty. Nettled at this reverse the
Christians enlivened matters and
brought about successful termination
to one OF their sorties by Spalding
beating Carter with well judged shot.
Exhibiting a better understanding the
Y. NJ. c. a. forwards opened out and
the Iolani goal underwent several mar
row escapes. The game continued near
the Iolani goal area with the Christians
pressing and although corner after

soundings over the wreck few days
before the tidal wave and found eight
feet of water. clear and after the wave,
day or two, he again took soundings
and found sixteen feet Of water and
what appeared to be a gutter washed
under the wreck.
Joe Brito, foreman for Whitehouse
on the sewer job, was called into SER
vice in connection with the location OF
the blasts, and on Saturday a minute
or two after / O'Clock the electric but
ton was touched on board the Lehua

air just over the wreck was the re-
suit. With the blast the men succeed

satisfactory results.
