As the starting point and center of
 lecture tours, New York has probably
 been enlightened on more and stranger
 subjects than any other city in the
 world In fact it has been generally
 believed that there was no subject
 however unique concerning which it
 had not been talked to. Wierd as
 have been many of these subjects in
 the past. they become commonplace
 when compared to one which is soon
 to be given here. The per on to de- assistant and later as chief hangman
 of the British Isles and the topic on which he will lecture bears the some
 what gruosome title of "Britons
 Have Hanged" Having officiated as assistant and later as chief hngman
 at e93 inflictions of capital punish ment. the ex-official evidently feels well qualified to talk of his profession. Curiously enough he is extremely mild and gentle. and characteriZes exc cutiOn by electricity as horrible. Per haps this is matter of professional pride since he is certain that none of the 693 persons whom he assisted out of the world ever suffered the least pain, so skilfully was the moose ad- justed. It was only because of the dis covery that two of the persons he hanged were later found to be inno- cent that caused the official to quit the work in which he took such pride. That there seemed to be little aver sion to his job. however, is shown by the fact that there were 200O appli- carts for it. Just how much interest New Workers will take in the recital of British hangings is doubtful, al- though the subject will doubtless at tract the inorhid IONACRGE

Whether New York is in danger of
 being turned into the most remarkable
 mining camp in the history of the
 country is the question which is per-
 pleXing legal experts here as the re-
 suit of the discovery of quartz vein
 bearing free gold far below the city
 streets. For some time it has been
 known that this city is underlaid by
 mineral bearing rock and many de- posits of garnets and other semi precious stones have been discovered from time to time The deepest eXca-
 vatiOns heretofore made. however. in
 the course of providing foundations for the great skyscrapers have not eX- ceeded 125 feet and the mineral de- Qosits which they have brought to light have not been of sufficient value to make them profitable. Now, how ever. that work is actively progressing Cn New YOrk's new water supply sys- tenn which will bring the fluid to the city by means of q tunnel which in some places goes as deep as 700 feet below the street level discoveries are being made which indicate the exist clcc ol very NdludDle ore Tar DeloW the surface of the metropolis. While the quartz vein already discovered bearing free gold in considerable quantities is only a small one. there are authorities who believe, that it is an offshoot of larger vein or lode. which if the tun- mel happens to tap it may turn the city into a real mine. The geological for nation which is now being reached at great depth for the first time, is simi- lar to that in which some of the worlds largest silver mines have been found. Should this 700-foot deep tun- nel tap q great lode of considerable value the litigation which would result over the attempts to locate on it would pr robably keep the courts busy for years.
