very much frightened or show any
signs of abandoning his intention 70

keeper dispatched messenger TO the
Speakers rostrum. The messenger al
so conveyed to the Speaker the card
of the colored man which bore the
name of John r. Lynch, with further
line TO the effect that Mr.. Lynch was
engaged in the practice of the law in
the commonwealth of Mississippi.
Speaker Clark for a moment was at
a loss as to the proper course of pro-
cedure. First he called upon the dean
of the Mississippi delegation in the
lower house, who informed the Speak
er that Mr. John R. Lynch was fully
entitled to the floor privilege. He had
served a number of terms in congress
from Mississippi. Mr.. Lynch was ad'
mitted.

Don't Call II Slang.

A Cleveland man who has lived for a
number of years recently got it into
his head that he might die one of these
days ard that it would be well If he
wrote his autobiographs ere that sad
event occurred, as one might say. Sc
he sat down and wrote many pages
and took those pages to a local pub
Usher. After the manuscript had been
in the lattcr's hands for some time the
author called him up.
This is Bjones," he explained gen
tally.
Who's Bjones?" came the reply.
"Bjones. you know-Bjones of East
Umpth street, whose autobiography
you are publishing. Ah-I'm a little
short this week. Could you let me have
something in advanced"
Not on your life."

slangy, but he wasn't-Cleveland Plain

A Spoon Insult.

The etiquette OF eating was formerly
simpler. because the number OF table
implements was smaller. Sir Charles
Murray (born In 1906 states in his
"Reminiscences" that dessert spoons
were unknown in the days OF his
youth. and people scraped along very
comfortably with only teaspoons and
tablespoons. When dessert spoons
were invented Hamilton Place. the seat
OF Sir Charles uncle. was among the
first households in Scotland to adopt
them, and small laird invited to dine
there was both astonished and dis
gusted TO find one OF the new fashioned
spoons handed 10 him with the sweets.

THE MAElSTROM.
Tides and Winds Cause tho WhirI and
the Hole In the Sea.

Tides and Winds Cause the Whirl and
the Hole In the Sea.
What of the maelstrom that is be-
tween two of the Loffoden islands, Off
the coast of Norway? Where the water
sinks there must be a subterranean
passage or an outlet farther north"
writes correspondent.
In answer we reply that there is no
opening in the oceans floor. The
whirling motion is caused by tides and
, winds. The water PUSHES in channels
between the islands, whose confgura-
ton aids in twisting. The current runs
during six hours from north to south
and then six hours from south to
north This reversal and friction
against rocks set up the whirling mo-
ton. Suction through a hole in the
bottom of the sea" does not exist.
Winds in from the ocean when in the
right direction increase the rotation Of
the water which, in the center of the
whirl, Is about twenty fathoms in
depth, but just west Of the straits the
soundings show depths of from 100 to
POO fathoms.
Many modern ships, in the absence
of winds. have traversed the troubled
wastes. but they keep away when the
wind is blowing against the change
able currents, especially at high tide,
when the danger is very great. Many
fables regarding the maelstrom have
been handed down from ancient times,
from medieval also. and moderns still
invent them. OF course ships have been
wrecked there as well as elsewhere
