"Mason and Dlxon's Line"

Mason and Dixon's line" is a refer.
ence to a boundary which was estab.
Nshed in the years intervening from
1853 to 1867. between the colonies Of
Maryland and Virginia on the one
side, and that Of Pennsylvania on the
other side, by Charles Mason and
jeremiah Dixon, who were two Eng.
lish civil engineers. So thoroughly
was the allotted task performed by
these young Englishmen that an 1S49
revision of the survey failed to detect
the slightest error. The United
States government also, as recently as
1901, has caused the Maryland por,
tion Of the noted boundary line to be
again revised.

Peculiar Scotch Railroads.

Scotland possesses several railroad
anomalies of which probably the most
notable is that of the stations OF
Mallaig and Kyle, Of Lochalsh, which,
though only 20 miles apart in .
straight line, are separated by no less
than $50 miles Of rail by the shortest
route, viz: Crianlarich, Balquhidder,
Perth and Inverness. Yet another
Scotch incongruity is that the nearest
railway station to the town of Port
Ellen, on the island of Islay, if we ex.
cept the small local line at Campbell.

clared the range to be the Oldest
mountain chain in California, and the
wealth Of priceless fossils found in
the different strata bears out the state
