hope. The vessel is in darkness, and l

1.-The crew are now wet, and it is ex-
tremely cold. 1t is my opinion that men
embarking in submarines must possess
the qualities of GOODNESS and nerve, and
must be extremely painstaking: they
must be brave and daring in the handling
of the boat. People may laugh at this.
in view of my failure, but the statement
is true.
1--WE have worked bard to pump out the
water but the boat is still in the same
position. 1t is now II O'Clock. The depth
of the water here is about ten fathoms.

they will be of little use in time of a

End of All Trouble.

The leading story in our next Sunday
Magazine is 1.-THE Magic Word" written
by Frederick Van Rensselaer, Dey. one of
the ablest and most prolific authors
known to American fiction. Mr.. Dey has
chosen for his theme the search for and
discovery of the word that, followed by
the discoverer. will bring health. wealth
and happincss-the end of all trouble and
misfortune. OF course, It is obviously i'm
possible for there to be such world OF
universal application. for each one OF us
must have his own magic word. based on
his experience and attitude toward his
fellow-creatures and the conditions that
surround him. But 1t is not altogether a
platitude that Mr.. Dey is giving, for there
is no question hat obedience to the
teachings lying hi iden in his magic word
would do much to stop all the ills OF
mankind. The fact that he has made
fiction the medium for his discourse gives
the tale greater interest 1t IL an OK
Iceedingiy odd and entertaining story.

Matter of Policy Only.

The views of the engineers of the army.
including those of Col. Langtitt are sum-
married. in the report of Gen. Bixby, the
head of the Engineer Corps. After re-
viewing the history of the proposition. to
transfer the entire water system from
the army engineers to the District Com
missioners. Gen. Bixby says:
THE question of transfer is mainly one
of policy. The operation of the Wash
ington aqueduct, reservoirs and filtration
plant has been conducted in the past
with great efficiency and economy under
the engineer department., and it is not
believed that a transfer will result in
any great permanent increase in economy
or efficiency so far as those parts Of the
system are concerned, although some
economy can probably be effected In the
operation of the mains by consolidating
their operation with that of the District
mains, which might perhaps be effected
by transferring the mains without trans
ferrfng the aqueduct. reservoirs and fill
tration plant, if desired. There will be
control under the head of single bureau
and thus centralizing responsibility.
ION the other hand, the executive
branch may not be in a position to insure
the continuity of supply for governmental
purposes in time of civic emergency. Fur
ther, while one of the Commissioners is
an engineer officer, as is the officer now
in immediate charge of the aqueduct the
projects, plans and specifications for con-
struction will not, under the law. require
the checking and approval by this Office
which they have had in the past. More
over, the aqueduct and filtration plant is
necessarily a costly one. requiring. in not
only construction but operation and MAIN
tenance, the best of work and the most
careful SuDerViSiOn.

LONDON, December p, 1911.
The Westminster city council. urged
thereto by the Typographical Society, will
shortly set new fashion In the way of
reminders of vanished London. The site
of the great banqueting hall Of old

lines will jut far out into the street be-

will end somewhere close to the entrance

Roman Relics Unearthed.
Relics of Roman London have con-
stantIy been coming to the surface lately.
Only a week or two ago some Roman
pottery was dug up in Paternoster Row,
and the latest discovery is an oaken pile
about three feet long that formed part
of the southern boundary Of the Roman
wall around London. This relic came to
light during some excavations made
near the river in lower Thames street
About twenty feet below the street level
huge baulks of timber were found. and
between these were placed short piles, of
which one only was sound enough to be
recovered whole. 1t is thought that the
wall at tits point was originally twenty
ar thirty feet high and seven or eight
feet thick, and these timber haulks prob
ably formed .solid substratum upon
which IL rested. The Roman origin OF
the discovery was proved beyond doubt
