QUEER NAMES IN BULK.
Lizzie Laziman and Pleasant Pickle or
Mail Order Lists.

speaking of Names" said an en-
ployee of one Of Chicago's large mail
order houses, 1--WE certainly have a
host of queer ones on our books. We
have sold them bills Of goods, and the
names, unique though they are, evil
IDENTITY do not hinder the possessors in
business. They keep right on ordering
our wares.
a funny feature Of the freaks in
nomenclature is that they usually run
in groups. For instance, in one town
we have Clarissa Rushing and Cath
crime Speedy Our books also show
the names Of Hazel Slow, Grace Rush
and Peter Quick. Then we have Liz
zic Laziman and J NJ. Thrift as op-
poshes.
There are hundreds Of others-for
instance, Alma =. Rude, Arabella
Pigg, +. L. Hogg, Gussie Millions and
Anna PooTe. Down in Pekin is n
girl named Dora Look. Katie Skipper
lives in Six Mile Run. What / con
slider our prize, though he laughed,
lis Pleasant Pickle. Some Of the 9th
err queer ones are Hattie Slaughter,

RUSSIAN CANAL TO JOIN
CASPIAN AND BLACK SEAS.
Greatest Inland Waterway In World
to Cost $67, 100000.

The Russian government Is prepar-
ing to spend more than $67, 600, 900 In
building the greatest inland waterway
in the world-to connect the Baltic sea
with the Caspian and Black seas. The
completion Of this vast project Is ex
pected to revolutionize economic con
ditions In the cars dominions I'm Eu-
rope.
There are two steps in the under
taking. The first is to join the river
Drina with the Dnieper at Vitebsk and
Orsha. The second is to connect the
Drina with the Volga, using the rivers
Mesha, Obsha, Warusa, Moskva and
Okla. The total length Of the route
will be 1925 miles.
Moscow, which Is the great CONNER
cial center of Russia, will be connect
ed by cheap means Of transportation
with an the rich provinces of the EN-
pire, and the whole Of central Russia
Will be put In easy touch with the
seas both north and south.
The Volga now carries three fifths OF
all Russian inland commerce. There
are regularly on it more than 2,20C
steamers and $500 other vessels carry
ing passengers and freight, with a to
tai capacity of nearly 100000 tons
Russia up to the present has never
done much to improve her waterways
She has spent in the last half century
$3,000,0O0,000 on her railways and only
$40,OO0,0O0 on her rivers and canals
although the waterways now carry as
much traffic as the railroads.
The annual cost of repairs and main
tenance to the across Russia waterway
is estimated at $6,50O,00O.

WHITE BIRCH STILL GROWING
Demands of Spool Manufacturers Fail
to Stop Growth.

Notwithstanding the inroads Of the
spool mandatory, the supply of pa
per birch in the United States is be
lieved 10y the forest service to be
greater today than it was 200 years
ago. and there is no visible sign OF
extinction.
SO far as is known, no one connect.
ed with the forest service can vouch
from personal or official knowledge
what the country's supply was two
centuries ago but the bureau finds
much consolation in the comparative
estimate of its experts.
The paper birch, often called white
or canoe birch. affords material for
most of the spools made in the Unit
ed States. Maine turns out S00.000,-
600 spools yearly. Few industries
waste more wood in proportion TO the
quantity used than spoomaking. yet
the supply continues ample.

General Maus Friend of Veteran Alas
kan Trailers.

kan Trailers.
Pensions for the Alaskan dogs are
to be recommended to the war de-
partment by Brigadier General Marion
Z. Maus, commanding the department
Of the Columbia. General Maus. who
is directing the American lake field
maneuvers. said that during his in
spection tour of Alaska he was dis
tressed by the present practice of
turning old and disabled dogs adrift.
These dogs have done worthy serv-
ice on the various trails for years.
said the general. "'They afford the
only lines of communication between
many of the army posts and are used
for taking through supplies. There
are 800 of these dogs constantly in the
service.
