ROMANCE OF ARCHITECTURE.
or;oin of the Graceful Corinthian Style
Of Capital.

Of Capital.
In the winter a young girl had died
IN Corinth. Some time afterward her
maid gathered together various trim
kets and playthings which the girl had
loved and brought them to the girls
grave. There she placed them in a
basket zeal the monument and put a
large square tile upon the basket to
prevent the wind from overturning it.
II happened that under the basket was
q root of an acanthus plant. When
spring came the acanthus sprouted.
but its shoots yer not able to pierce
the basket. and accordingly they grew
around it. having the basket in their
midst. Such of the long leaves as
grew up against the four protruding
corners of the tile on the top Of the
basket curled round under these cor
ners and formed pretty volutes.
Kallimachos. the sculptor. walking
that way one day. saw this and i'm
mediately conceived the notion that the
form Of the basket with the plaque
on top of it and surrounded by the
leaves and stalks of acanthus would
be a comedy heading for columns in
architecture. He from this idea formed
the beautiful Corinthian style Of CAPT
tai. Such. at least. Is the story as the
architect Vitruvius told 1t 1900 a
ago.

FIRES THAT ARE ASLEEP.
A Great Range Of Volcanoes In the
Heart Of Africa.

Heart Of Africa.
II is not very generally known that
right in the heart Of Africa at the
southern end of Lake Albert Edward
Is a great range of volcanoes. They
are eight In number. md. though 1t Is
true that. unlike RukenZor. they carry
no permanent snow. the highest peak
Is over $4,000 feet in height. These
volcanoes are particularly Interesting
on account of their comparative new
ness. Running through the middle of
Africa there is a trench many hundred
miles long. in which lie the great lakes
Albert, Albert Edward. Kivu and Tan
ganyika.
Not very many thousands of years
ago the volcanoes. generally called
Mfumbiro. burst up through the mid
die Of this trench and made a dam
across 1t. with the result that some of
the water which formerly flowed into
Lake Albert Edward and so into the
Nile was cut off and a lake was form
ed behind the dam. AS times went on
the waters in the lake which Is now
called Kivu rose higher and higher
until, not being able to flow over the
barrier of the volcanoes, they formed
the Rusisi river. which runs the other
way into Tanganyika. about a hundred

CASE
FOR FEDERAL
PROSECUTION
LINDSLEY WILL ACT

The state of Washington today
released it's grip on Paul Clein, al
legged murderer of John Saudawski,
his Polish fellow workman, whom a
jury had found guilty of murder in
the first degree.
This action followed the signing
of the order by Judge Webster to-
day holding that, under the law. the
crime being committed on govern
ment property, the state had no jur-
isdiction in the case. The prose-
cutor's office refused to plead fur
Their and announced that he next
step, if any is to be taken, was up
to the office of the United States
district attorney.
ASS slant L. S. District Attorney
J. B. Lindsey told The Press that
action will be taken this afternoon
against Glen in the United States
court. He will probably be charged
with the commission of murder in
the first degree and again tried,
this time in the federal court.
The murder of Saudawski was
one of the most deliberate and cold
blooded in the criminal annals of
Spokane county. 1t was committed
about March /, 1909, at Fort
Wright. The trial in the superior
court was the most interesting
hearing of the kind in years, and
resulted in a conviction that meant
hanging for Glen. The defendant
has had a remarkable career and
was one of the coolest men ever
placed on the stand in his own be-
half.
