Berlin is said to be the quetest city
in Europe. Railway engines are not
allowed to blow their whistles within
the city limits. There is no loud
baWling of hucksters, and a man
whose wagon gearing is loose and rat
tlrg is subject to q fine. The courts
have a large discretion as to fines for
noise making. Strangest of all, piano
playing is regulated in Berlin. Be-
fore certain hour in the day, and
after certain hour in the night the
piano. must be silent in that musical
city. Even during the playing hours
a fine is imposed for mere pounding
on the piano.

on the body were issued to patients
and that were it not for the possibility
that the young man had been conceal
ed by relatives, he should. surely think
that the body found at Gardiner was
his, especially as he had threatened
suicide by throwing himself into the
river. rt.
Another feature of the case which
would lead to the belief that the re-
mains might possibly be those OF the
missing young man is the fact that
owing to the advanced stage of de-
composition, the arms having dropped
off, the body must have been in the
water for a long time, and Beisvert
disappeared year ago.

LAKE ERIE TO PITTsBURG.
Proposed Ship Canal Connecting the
Two Points. .. -. !,

Charters for the proposed ship canal
from Lake Erie to Pittsburg have been
received by the Lake Erie & Ohio
Ship Canal Company from Ohio, Penn
sylvania and the national government.
The work of construction is expect
ed to commence in the next year and
it is estimated that the canal can be
completed by 1894. The cost of
construction is estimated at $50 ,000,-
900.
According to the plans the Lake
Erie terminus will be at the mouth
of Indian Creek, just west of Ashta-
bula. The natural waterways along
the route are to be utilized, the first
division, a distance of 20 miles, being
formed by the Beaver river. The Ma
honing rover, for length of 80 miles,
| will constitute the second division.
The total rise for these divisions will
be III feet, requiring II locks. The
| actual canal is to begin at Niles and
pursue route due north to Lake
Erie. The approach along the Mos
quito valley will require three locks.
In the plans provision is made for the
construction of a lake nine miles long
at the southern end of the summit.
This lake will act as an auxiliary
reservoir and provide excellent har.
Dor. The summit is 81 miles long and
terminates Is miles south of Lake
Erie. On this descent to the mouth of
Indian Creek, Lake Erie, Is locks
must be constructed with total drop
Of 1927 feet.
