SALT MINES AT NORWICH CON

In Gaicia Are Houses and Streets
Thousand Years Old, Cut From

LONDON, May 18.-The salt mines
at Norwich contain some wonderful
novelties in the way of unique apart
ments cut in pure salt, but the most
interesting salt mines in the world are
at Wieliczka, in Galicia. Here is tC
be seen the most extraordinary col
lection of streets, houses, churches

The altar has twisted columns, and
carved praying monks kneel on the
steps, over the altar being a huge
crucifix and a statue of the Virgin
while in the various chpaels are to be
found smaller affairs.
Besides the one mentioned there is
another smaller chapel in the mines
named ST. Cunegund, which was only
opened in 1896 and is now used regu-

WRITE INSURANCE

LLOYCiS is AN INSTITUTION
WHERE ALL KINDS OF RISKS
ARE TAKEN.
Will Protect One Against the DEATH
of the King, the Loss of Position
or Rise in Tariff.

LONDON, May 1S.-"Lloyd's" is an
institution, or more correctly speak
ing, a market, where you can be in
sured against anything-loss of a ship
or of a position, unlucky specularions,
death of the King of England or Mr.
Morgan, a war with France, an I'M
favorable German tariff; there is no
limit. How the policy is adjusted to
the risk may be seen from the last par
ticular exploit of Notwithstanding
against the British ministry's budget of
taxation. This is how the market for
budget risks" is described, in a Lon
don newspaper of a fortnight ago:
1.-TWO months ago, so remote was it
considered that the chancellor of the
exchequer would increase the duty on
these commodities that a number of
policies were issued at from 5 to 10
guineas per cent Yesterday as much
as % guineas was demanded for each
G 100 policy covering increased duty
on tea and sugar as compared with 20
guineas per cent quoted last week.
On tobacco and cigars and such luxu-
ries as champagne the prices, while

to pay a total loss should Mr.. Lloyd
George find a hen rOost' in automo-
biles. Inquiries have also been made
recently in the Room for protection
against a super tax on incomes, but
very little, if any, business in this de-
partment has been actually fixed"
The upshOt of these bets between
LlOyd's and the outside public was in
teresting. The super-tax on incomes
was proposed, and was very heavy,
tobacco and wines and tea apparently
escaped scot free. But the budget
taxed motor cars, and the outside pub
lie got the best of Lloyd's on it.

CHURCHES BUILT
OF PURE SALT

cut in solid salt 1t is $50 feet long
40 feet wide and 80 feet high. The
altar, statues, pulpit and chandeliers
are all of salt.
The next important apartment is
the great dancing hall, which is hung
with chandeliers carved from crystal
salt in 1914 in honor of the visit OF
the car of Russia to the mines. The
effect of the light glistening on the
brilliant crystals resembles more a
gorgeous court scene than the interior
of mine. Another famous hall is the
MichaloWice, which is "a feet long, 81
feet wide and 10S feet high, with a
colossal chandelier feet in diameter
containing 200 candles. Passing
through other beautiful halls one
reaches the Crown Prince Rudolph
Grotto, where the lights and white
carvings are reflected in the water of
an underground lake. From the CEN
ter of the water rises a statue of rock
salt surrounded by fir trees and stall
actites.
The mines form an oval % feet in
length and half a mile in central
width. The aggregate length of
the galleries at present accessible is
upward of IS miles, and that of min
ing railways % miles. The mines are
still being worked and employ 1000
workmen.
Enormous cavities, amounting to
LOG, 5000 cubic feet have been pro-
duced during the last century below
the town of WielicZka, and to prevent
the town falling in whole streets OF
houses have been built in these cavi-
ties for the housing of WOrkmen, who
are allowed a certain period each day
for recreation above ground.

she is pretty liable to indulge in fool
