ROUGH TRAVEL IN PAPUA.

Rapids 12O miles long were discov-

recent expedition of Mr.. Stamford
Smith, the administrator who re-
turned to civilization after his re-
ported massacre by natives. The par
ty built rafts to descend the rapids.
Their RATS were overturned, and
the party stpewn along the river for
miles. It took five days to reunite,
and when all we're gathered together
again they found that provisions,
tents and baggage were lost, and
they had 800 miles over unknown
country before them. Although the
rain was heavy, the expedition was
30 hours without water, as the coral
valleys absorbed it as it fell.

QUEER RELIC OF CIVIL WAR
On Delaware River Island is Old Can
non Through Whose Wheel Grew
Lofty Elm.

A small island near the mouth OF
the Delaware river was used by the
federal authorities during the Civil
war to store captured confederate
guns and other war materials, as
well as for the detention of prison.
ers. When the ammunition was re-
moved at the close Of the war one
mounted gun was overlooked. When
it was first placed on the island a
tiny elm tree was breaking the soil
between the heavy wheels of the gun
carriage. Since then the elm has be-
come sadly twisted and distorted.
The body, defeeted by the gun,
found its way to freedom between
the spokes of wheel, forcing them
apart as it grew larger. The gun has
since dropped to the ground and lies
half buried in the mold, but the tree
still supports the crumbling wheels
in position. Hundreds of ex-confed-
crate soldiers have visited the little
island to see this old war relic, and a
crippled veteran of Lees army makes
a tidy sum carrying visitors to and
from the mainland in a launch.

DEEP MYSTERY OF THE PRESS
Correspondents Always Declared They
Knew Nothing, But the Papers
Were Full Of News.

Until recently there was an aged
elevator man who operated one of
the lifts in the house wing of the
capitol. Most of his passengers were
either representatives or newspaper
correspondents. The old man got to
know all of the correspondents very
well and always had cheerful greet
ing for them. It was often noticed,
too, that he seemed to be greatly in
terested in their conversation.
One afternoon, as three of them
stepped out of the elevator, Serene
Payne of New York stepped in. As
the car went down the old elevator
man turned and said:
EMr. Payne, l can't understand
about those newspaper men. They
puzzle me"
'What's the trouble with them ?"
asked Mr. Payne.
"Well, Mr.. Payne, every day they
ride in this car one feller will turn
to another and say, What do you
know today?' And the other fellow
will answer, Not - thing. What
do you know?' Then the first feller
will answer, Nothing And yet, Mr..
Payne, the papers are just full of
news every day. 1t beats me where
they get it"
at beats me, .too," said Mr..
Payne.-Brooklyn Eagle.
