Dog Brought Help.

c. B. Shockley, who lives across the
river, was recently ploughing in some
new ground near the edge of the river
hills. He was accompanied by a half
grown shepherd dog. The dog in hunt
ing went over a small hill and soon
came 1iting back with a coyote close to
his heels. Seeing the man the coyote
ran back and the dog plucked up courage
to follow.
Out of sight of his master he weak
ened and came back over the hill with
the coyote after him. This was repeated
several times, to the amusement of Mr..
Shockley, who offered neither counsel
nor assistance, meaning to see how the
dog would figure it out.
He had not long to wait. The dog sat
down and seemed to think over the sit
uation, and then started for the house
on keen run. He was back in very
short time accompanied by a big dog
whose reputation as a coyote fighter was
established. The young dog led the old
one over the hill and soon the coyote
had disappeared Cor. Kan

SECRET UNDERGROUND PASSAGES
That Were Constructed on the American
Estate of Joseph Bonaparte.

Plain truth seems mild when compared
with the thrilling legends told in the
past of the subterranean passages lead

Spain to the river at Bonaparte park,

two short underground passageways CON
structed by Joseph Bonaparte but these.

to the fanciful stories that he had sub
terranean passages dug all through his
grounds; that the passages had iron
doors and could be closed and bolted on
the inside.
When Joseph Bonaparte purchased the
extensive park in Bordentown for his
American home it included about 1000
acres, situated on the elevated plateau
of BOrdentOWn. on the south side of the
Crosswicks creek and extending from.
the confidence of the creek and the Della
ware to the White Horse bridge, more
than a mile above.
After occupying for some time the sub
stantial frame building which stood IN
the park Bonaparte built a mansion near
the edge of the bluff and named it Point
Breeze. From the cellar Of this mansion
was the first brick underground passage.

long, leading to the side of the bluff
and from the entrance to this under
ground passage to the waters elge was
an enclosed path Of easy ascent. This
subterranean passage was walled up and

divided into two passageWays where it
entered the mansion, one leading to the
cellar and one leading to an upper room
in the mansion.
Later third door gave entrance to
the icehOUse and still later another long
underground passage was constructed
to extend beyond the wall containing
the doors to a great arch of substantial
and massive structure which gave en-
trance to covered way" leading from
the Bonaparte mansion to the Lake
hOuse-near the Trenton road entrance
to the park-in which his daughter Zen

Very few traces are now left of the
underground gallery leading from the

Moving Dunes.

In the desert of Islay, near La Joya,
Peru, there are thousands of crescent
shaped sand dunes, formed by the winds,
and slowly advancing across the level
surface. Prof Scion |. Bailey, the
astronomer measured one dune, the
points of whose crescent were 100 feet
apart, while the length around the convex
side was AT feet. The width at the wild
est part of the crescent was more than
100 feet. The weight of the sand com
posing the dune was estimated at 5000
tons, yet it moved 125 feet in year. All
the dunes have the same form, and all
have their convex side toward the pre-
vailing south winds.-1ouths Compan-
