AN ISLAND IN THE CLOUDS
Rises 900 Feet Above the Sea and its
Top 10 PerpetualIy Enveloped
by Clouds.

White Island. thirty miles to the
northeast of New Zealand, is perhaps
the most extraordinary island in the
world It. is an enormous mass Of
rock nearly three miles in circumfer
ence, rising 900 feet above the sea,
and is perpetually enveloped in dark
clouds which are visible for nearly
100 miles.
The island consists almost entirely
of sulphur, with small percentage of
gypsum. Some years ago an attempt
was made to float company to work
the sulphur, which is of high quality
but sufficient capital was not subscrib
ed. Therefore. the export of sulphur
from White Island is still very small
nn the interior is a lake fully so acres
In extent, the water of which has a
temperature of 40 degrees Fahren-
heit, and 1t is strongly impregnated
with acids. On one side of this lake
are craters from which steam escapes
with great force and noise. This
steam and the yapor from the lake
form the dark cloud that envelops the
island.-Harpers Weekly.

John o. and His Caddie.

John D. Rockefeller, on his seventy
first birthday, told a Cleveland re-
porter a golf story.
'Golhng in Augusta one bright win
ter day." he said, Il had for caddie a
boy who didn't know me.
AN unfortunate stroke landed me
in clump of high grass.
My, my. said. what am I to do
now?'
"'See that there tree?' said the boy.
pointing to a tall tree mile away.
Well, drive straight for that
Il lofted vigorously and fortunate
ly, my ball scared up into the air,
it landed, and it rolled right on to the
putting green.
"How's that, my boy?' l cried tri-
umphantly.
"The caddie stared at me with envi-
Gus eyes.
"'Gee, boss he said, ifo had your
strength asd you had my brains. what
q pair for a foursome we'd make!

A Sparkling Novelist.

"A New York editor, at the Century
Ndb, told a story about Robert w.
Chambers. the well-known young nov
elist
Chambers went one summer" he
said, ito Sunapee with his brother. At
the Ben Mere Inn the aristicratic old
ladies in rocking chairs seated on the
cool piazza that overlooks the lake.
were very much stirred up by Mr..
Chambers arrival. Whenever he ap-
peared they gathered about him and
talked books.
Chambers was always ready for
them He had always on his lips some
witty saying to double them up.
oh. Mr.. Chambers cried an old
lady one day, I admire Lorraine" SO
muchi I've read 1t eight times!'
Madam answered Chambers, with
bow, I would rather hear you say
you'd bought eight copies.'"

THE POLICE OF GERMANY
Prominence and Unlimited Authority
is Most Striking Feature to
the Foreigner.

To q foreigner no feature Of Ger
prominence and almost unlimited au-
thority Of the police. Many of Its
functions are such as in the United
States would be intrusted only to
court OF law. What seems almost
equally strange. the greater part Of
these functions are exercised quite in
dependently of the local government.
The minuteness and thoroughness
OF the work of the German police are
a constant surprise to the foreigner.
The policeman not only preserves or
der in the streets. but exercises a far
reaching authority in private houses.
For instance, he undertakes the night
ly locking of ones street door at q
sufficiently early hour. He sees that
one has his chimney regularly cleaned.
He inSpects, at stated times, ones
stoves and heating apparatus, and.
while he is about it. he will look into
a few other matters of domestic econ
omy.
One feature of his activity strikes
good many American visitors with
Oavor. In some places singing and
piano playing with open windows are
forbidden, and it is a common house
regulation in large towns that no
pianos may be played after 10 o'clock
IN the evening The German police
man is also something of food in
specbor in his way. and he keeps a
sharp eye on vendors of food and of
medicines. 1t is not an uncommon
sight to see a German policeman halt
milkman's wagon and on the spot
make an inspection of his wares.
Should there prove to be anything
wrong with them they are promptly
seized and destroyed and the matter
is Immediately taken in hand by the
higher authorities.

THE GAS COMPANY'S FUNK

1T is difficult to moderate ones Ian
guage in attempting to voice the
disgust and general indignation
which this community feels for the sort
of mismanagement which the Gas Com
pany has shown in the past week Any
plant is liable to mishaps, and nothing
but patience and sympathy would go
out, from reasonable men, to the Gas
Company Cor any other company which
was handicapped in its service by an
unavoidable accident. Snch, however,
is not the situation in the present in
stance, at all. The Gas Company has
brought not only annoyance and incon-
yenience, but actual financial loss to
many of our people by its gross and in
excusable carelessness. We almost hate
to say that the Company's failure to
afford service has been due to its allow
ing itself to run out of a coal supply
such a statement sounds so utterly
childish And yet such is the statement
of the fact. At this season of the year
when people are using gas, not only for
Illuminating purposes, but also for cook
ing, and when some of us are using it
for commercial purposes, it seems in
credible that any reasonably intelligent
and provident management would al
low itself to run short on fuel supply
The Gas Company certainly cannot be
SO hard up for funds as that it cannot
afford to lay out little extra money in
a reserve supply of fuel, without taking
the risks that are involved in hand to
mouth, day to day dependence on
prompt transportation. The Company
can offer no satisfactory excuse for any
such niggardly and incompetent man
agement.
