scent fat rate. The mayor said that
he thought the council should fix a
fat rate for all factories, Independent
Of new factories. He thought the rate
should be somewhere around cents.
The trouble now. the mayor said, is
that the city does not know how much
1t costs to pump 1000 gallons OF water,
and would not until the meter service
was complete. He thought all new
concerns should be encouraged with
water at the cost of pumping for five
years, and and he did not think any es-
tablished concern should complain OF
the cheaper rate to a new factory.

COLOSSUS OF RHODES.
One of the Ancient Seven Wonders OF
the World.

One of the Ancient Seven Wonders OF
the World.
The ancients succeeded in making
tha, alloy OF copper which is known as
bronze. Among the seven wonders OF
the world was the famous statue,
wholly made of bronze, historically
known as the Colossus of Rhodes. 1t
represented Phoebus the national del
fy of the Rhodians. 1t was begun by
Chares, ii pupil of Lysippus, the sculp-
Tor. and was completed by Laches 2SS
B. c. The popular belief is that it
stood astride the harbor Of Rhodes,
that it was 1O5 feet high and that
ships could easily sail between its legs.
Pliny said that few men could clasp
its thumb. 1t was cast on metaphysics,
afterward joined together. and this
process occupied twelve years. In the
interior was a spiral staircase reach
inc into it's head, and in great mirror
suspended to it's neck were reflected
the coast of Syria and the ships sailing
to Egypt.
After it had stood for sixty-four
years this colossus was overthrown by
an earthquake, and its remains lay on
the shore for 923 years-that is. until
A. D. 672-when they were sold by the
Saracens to a dealer. The original
cost was 300 talents-about 6,0OO,OO
and it is not too much to say that a
similar image might be constructed
now in one-fourth Of the time and at
one-third of the original cost. Rhodes.
by the way, must have had colossus
on the brain, for Pliny relates that the
port was adorned with 1000 colossal
statues of the sun.

Flies at Sea.

The finding Of flies and butterflies
long way out at sea is perhaps to
most readers fact not very well
known. A recent traveller In the trop-
les relates that when thirty miles
out from land plague Of flies over
took the vessel on which he was steam
ing. The cabin was so full Of them
that the beams were blackened. Com
mon black housef1ies they were for
the most part, with, however, a good
sprinkling Of large green flies. Where
they could have come from was a mys-
terry. but they were terrible nuisance.
and, although those on board swept of
hundreds in a net, their numbers were
not sensibly diminished. Another sin
gular circumstance was that, although
no land was in sight. large dragon
flies repeatedly flew across the ship,
and large dark butterfly was observ-
ed to fit across in the direction Of the
nearest land. quite thirty miles away,
without stopping to rest on the vessel
at all.-London Globe.
