for 1t; he has no call for IT,; he
wouldn't sell It; as he holds his

styles, and highest grade of stock and
workmanship. II Biork sells It, II

Mining Coal R.nea.h th. Sea.

Digging dusky diamonds underneath
the sea" are the miners of Cape Breton
Island. y. S. where coal is taken from
beneath the waves $500 feet from the
shore line At this point in the Prin-
cess mine the overhead cover is lao
feet in thickness of strata. which have
thirty-three to forty feet of water
above them. The undersea workings
in the mine cover 1920 acres. Mining
is done by what is known as the bore
and pillar system. II was begun In
1877 under an overhead cover at the
shore line of 600 feet. No sea water
has vet found its way into the work
ings as a result of removing the pillars
owing to the presence Of superincum-
bent strata of fire clay Of total thick
ness of thirty-nine feet and numer-
GUS beds of shaIe. The seam of the
Princess mine averages about six feet
in thickness. and the coal is Of an eI-
cellent quality.

could he r &c Whist time it was?"
Don't see-feels."
"Feels?'
Yes; feels and hears A blind
mans watch is just like any other
watch, except that instead of hands
on the dial the figures rise up at the
hour and the minutes are told by little
pegs Some have a spring which you
press and 1t strikes like a clock. 4 sys-
tenn of long and short strokes indicates
the quarter and hours, and a number
of taps indicate the minutes. Thus he
presses the spring at . rs o'clock. The

We brought them into the compiled

from the question of crime, it is the

WHARF, the King Cannot Go.

The king of England labors under
one curious disability. He may not
listen to a debate in the house of COM
mons. Admission to the legislative
chamber, which is open to his lowliest
subject, is denied to the sovereign. The
king Is the head of parliament Ac-
cording to the theory of the constitu-
ton, his majesty summons parliament
10 meet in order that it might advise
him in the government of the realm.
Indeed, he is supposed theoretically to
preside over its deliberations, yet it
has come to pass that the actual pres
ence of the sovereign in parliament,
except on ceremonial occasions, would
now be regarded as unconstitutional.
He only attends in the house Of lords
to open parliament, 10 give the royal
assent to bills which have passed both
houses or TO prorogue parliament at
the end of the session. Does it not
seem an extraordinary thing. asks the
Grand Magazine. 10 say that Queen
Victoria. during the course Of her long
reign Of siyty-three years. was never
in the house of commons? Not once
was it given TO that conscientious mon
arch to see her faithful commons" at
work.

The figures given are evidently

A Canal Impracticable.

The Pensacola Journal wants the
legislature to dig ship canal across
the state. The project is not at all
feasible. Such a canal would cost SO
much money and be so expensive to
maintain that the tolls would be too
high to warrant ships going through it.
Such a canal could be dug through
the keys at a nominal cost but even
that would not pay for its mainten-
