5000 MILES IN A TRANCE
Sudden Awakening After Days in Aus.
traIian Bush.

Sydney Letter to the London Mail.
A curious case Of lapse Of memory
has just been revealed here on the ar.
rival from the northern districts of
New South Wales Of an American,
whose last remembrance was of Los
Angeles, Cal. The Americans story is
vouched for by two Sydney doctors,
who have investigated the circum-
stances.
The mysterious traveller, whose name
am requested to withhold, left Para:
hoe, in California, a few days before
last Easter intending to join his wife and
arriving there, but has no recollection
of what happened afterward.
He awoke to find himself living I'M
der tree in the Australian bush, and
was immensely astonished at seeing
around him many unknown forms of
vegetation. He noticed that his hands
were hard and rough, tho he had never
consciously done a days hard work.
A bullock driver passed him shortly
after his awakening, and he at once
inquired the way to Los Angeles. The
man stared in astonishment, and an
swered that Hill End was the name Of
the nearest township.
The man without a memory thereupon
asked the date, and was told that it
was late in October, and that he was in
to Sydney, distance of some hundreds
of miles, and is now trying to obtain
employment here to get the money to
return to his family.
He is in total ignorance as to their
whereabouts and as to his own doings
| during the six months between April
and October.

RICHER THAN RockEFELLER.
Kansas CITY Journal.


Alfred Belt. the South African mining
king. is said to be richer even than Rock
efeller. Half the mines in South Africa
belong>to him, including the fabulous
wealth of Kimberley's diamond output.
The aggregate of his wealth cannot be
stated. but a rough estimate places 1t at
81, 900, 900. 600. His yearly income IL
$50 500. 0o0 which means that he gets
500 every minute of his life, or, to put
it another way, s1,Ooo,oo0 week.

THE REASON.

A teacher in a public school Of Boston
once had great difficulty in imparting to
boy pupil of 10 certain elementary prin-
ciples Of grammar. In class one day the
instructor experienced more than the usual
amount of trouble with the lad. In des-
peration the teacher finally blurted out
the question: eat least you can tell me
why we study grammar"
Yes. ma'am." returned the pupil. I'VE
study grammar so that we can laugh at

Factory Worked by Spiders.

The spider-web gown may soon be a
reality, for the threads of thousands of
spiders are being carefully gathered, un-
wound and woven into shimmering
silken fabrics. On the Island of NADIA
gascar this odd industry is carried on
under the direct management of the
governor, who has been appointed by
the French authorities manager of what
is perhaps the strangest factory in the
world. Here spiders toll day and night
and die from overwork and from ig-
norance on the part of the attendants.
Therein lies the chief difficulty. The
spider seems perfectly willing to spin
out in the mango groves of its native
land, but it grows sulky when trans
planted to the specially-prepared cells
in the silk-spinning factory of NADIA

helping him pack his suit case, relates

cuffs. This long one with the ribbon

somewhat doubtfully, 80 they will"

asked interested George, holding up a
large white bag.
Why, that's to put your starched
shirts in, dear. See, it's just the length
of your suit case-I measured to get it
just right"
81 see," said George, thoughtfully.
ANY more?"
Eyes, indeed. I've been planning for
this trip for weeks. This blue denim
case is for your overshoes, and this
striped one is for your slippers. This
one with the cunning little button and
buttonhole is for your whisl1-broom, and
these others, embroidered with forget

military brushes. This larger case is
for your nightshirt, here's another for
your razors, and this little long one is
for your toothbrush. l did intend to
make a case for your soiled linen but"
Just at this moment Mrs. Bennett was
called downstairs. When she returned
half an hour later, George was sitting
on the side of the bed among his per-
sonal belongings and gazing discon-
solately at the bulging sides of his suit

stated that Lord Townshend was very
coolly treated by them until the Mon

"At Wiesbaden, where the marquis

six weeks, his lordship was treated
with the grossest indignities. 1t is
said that he was made to grease his
