"Out Of Order"

The familiar cry of "Order, or
der!" was once ruled "out of or
der" by Mr.. Speaker Peel. On April
16, 1885, Arthur O'Connor was
speaking on a motion~relating to
the postoffice, and as members gen
orally were not paying attention to
his remarks his colleague, 7. NJ
Healy, endeavored to recall the
wandering thoughts of the house
by persistent cries of "Order, or
derw
'The honorable and learned mem.
Der should not be so demonstrative
in his remarks" said the speaker.
Gam I to understand that it is
out of order to cry 'Orderp in this
housew asked Mr.. Healy.
'SThe tone and the way in which
the honorable member expresses
himself are out of ORDER" answered
the speaker.
'1n that case," said Mr.. Healy,
but the speaker pulled him up
sharply with the reproof: "The hon
orable member is not in order in ad-
dressing the chair in that way. If
the honorable member continues, |
shall have to take notice of his in
terruption."

A Provident Plant.

There is a plant found in the
Mexican desert OF, Sonora which is
stated to surpass the camel in its
ability to husband its supply Of
moisture. This is known as the
quarequi, relative of the pumpkin
and it inhabits locality in which
practically all the rain falls within
period Of six weeks. The base OF
the stem of the plant is formed by
hard, woody structure, which is
really nothing more than a vegeta-
bic reservoir designed to hoard up
the scanty moisture received with
the greed of a miser, exercising all
a miser's thrift in doing out the
precious fluid to its own advantage
in time of need.

SUMMIT OF MOUNT BAKER.
1 Freak Among Freaks Is the Great
TabIeIand.

There is no evidence of recent ac-
tivity of this volcano, nor are there
any alarming indications that it vii
ever be active again, says Forest
and Stream. True, there are live
vents on the sides of the cone where
the vapors and sulphur are contln.
ually emitted, where the lava is still
hot and steam jets issue with rum
bling and violence, but the SHOWS
of recurring seasons have blanketec
it for centuries, as if to smother out
the internal fires, and It can hardly
be considered now more than the
lingering of heat which once warm
ed, surrounding regions tc
fuorescence, the base of the noun
tain to bright red, and where it il
now buried under mantle OF per
petual snow its summit once shone
with a luminous glare winter thar
the electric arc. But the freak
among freaks in this interesting
region is the tableland already re-
ferred to.
It rose in it's magnifcence ano
grandeur from the bowels of the
earth as did Mount Baker, of which
it is simply part and parcel. Il
probably rose to its present emil
nence above its surroundings and
especially out Of its immediate bed
of porphyry somewhat later after i
had cooled enough to hold it's shape
by renewed pressure directly under
it, showing it up like cork out OF a
bottle.
The writer was strongly inclined
to take the plug clear out and look
inside to see exactly what was the
cause of it. There is much evidence
that the secondary uplift came at a
rnuch later day than the volcanic
eruption or eruptions which pro
duced the main features of this dis
trict,. the most important Of these
evidences being the fact that the
disintegration about the vertical
walls of this lakeland is very much
less than about the sides of any 9TH
'er~ecfiffs around irrespective of
height, position or material to be
eroded.
The walls of it are crumbling
away and accumulating about the
base in rock slides, somewhat faster
on the sunny sides. If it were pos
sible to count the annual layers OF
rock ON these slides, which have
faxed off the walls above by the ac-
ton of the summer sun and frosts
of winter, like the age of trees by
the rings of growth, it would be
easy to determine when Mazama
dome last made move to rival
Coleman peak or get in better view
of the parent cone.

A CHINESE CONCERT.
Il Had at Least the Virtue of Not Be-

An amusing story is related by
Maurice Barring in his book, "A
Year In Russia" IA Chinaman
came from house in a tumbledown
village at which a midday halt was
made. His child was i'll, and he
sought doctor. To save the bother
of explanation Mr.. Barring, who had
been picked out by reason of his
red correspondents badge on his
arm, said he was a doctor and went
to the house, where lay brown and
naked infant. 81 made him put out
his tongue. 1t was white | asked
what he had been eating lately. The
Chinaman said raw Indian corn. ]

complete repose.
''The Chinaman appeared to me to
be much satisfied and asked me if |
would like to hear concert. | said
very much. Then he babe me sit
down on the khan-the natural
divan of every Chinese house-and
to look Csmotri, smotri,' he said).
Presently another Chinaman came
into the room, and, taking from the
wall a large and twisted clarion like
the wreathed horn old Triton blew,
he blew on it one deafening blast
and hung it up on the wal. again.
There was a short pause. | waited
in expectation, and. the Chinaman
turned to me and said, The concert
is now over
"When we had finished luncheon
and just as we were about to re-
sumo our journey the Chinaman in
whose house | had been entertained
rushed up tome. In your country
said he, when you 60 to concert
