the general land Office for the guidance
OF the local Offices, and by these
latter to the various United States

people who file upon the public lands
are necessarily the officials from whom
the intending settler gets most OF his

Lord Lyttun when viceroy Of India

a lady whose name vas Birch and
who. though very good looking, was
not overintelligent. Said she to his
eXcellency:
Are you acquainted with any Of the

"Oh, yes!" replied Lord Lytton. II

" than l cared to-"
"My lord" replied the lady, ''you
forget the Rirches are relatives of
mine"
"And they cut me- said the viceroy.

LUSlTANlA'S TRIP,
Not q Dull Moment For Passengers on
Record BREAKING Run,

Hecorc breaking Kun.
There was not a dull moment on the
recent record breaking voyage Of the
steamship Lusitania. What with a
concert in the second cabin on last
Wednesday evening, from which ETC
los. was readily realized for the or
phans of officers and seamen in New
York and Liverpool; a concert in the
first cabin on Thursday night for a
like charity. which netted f65. and
some lively sports on the second cabin
deck, the passengers enjoyed them
selves immensely, to say nothing of
the continuous excitement kept up by
the ships performance. From a col
lection taken up at the concert for the
firemen f23 was realized. Bransby
Williams, who had recited in evening
dress, came in attired as a stoker,
black and grimy with coal dust, to
thank those present for their contri-
buttons.
The Lusitania burned OH the voyage.
SO far as can he ascertained, nearly
LOO o n of Welsh navy coal a day.
This enormous combustion was made
| possible by care of the ventilators and
the forced draft system, which on one
occasion failed for a short time, but
| did not materially affect the run of
the ship. it would appear, as the slight
accident occurred the day when the
highest record. CIT knots. was made.
The betting on the runs reached large
proportions, and the passengers bid
high for the top number, showing all
optimistic spirit as to the ability Of the
ship. One lucky passenger won a pool
n day valued at $3.50 and the mex
day had similar luck.
Every one participated in the excite
ment attending the ships voyage. Nat
urally the Iusitania's officers were
most keen for a record breaking per
Torrance.
Jolly 10" Lancaster, the purser
was so elated when the feat had beer

Of this limerick:
There was a young man from Westphalia
Who had charge Of the kaiser's regalie.
To his sweetheart he said,
my dear. when we're wed
Well call our first girl Lucy Tania."
The great strain on a ship in trying
for a record plays havoc with the ma
chinery. When the big vessel has beer
berthed and the passengers have gone
ashore expert mechanics hurry aboard
make an examination and reckon thu
cost of breaking the Atlantic record
The price such a liner pays in TIN
engine room alone for this honor il
high. Not long ago. when n of tn
express ships established an ocean rec
ord, the temporary repairs to her en-
gines alone cost nearly $4,000.
All in all, it is estimated that tn
cost Of breaking the ocean record o
even making an attempt to lower it /
from $4,000 to $4,000 more than tina
