[BY UNITED PRESS ASSOCIATIONS
NEW YORK, April Sin tele-

phatically denies that Japan has made
any arrangements with Mexico where
by a Japanese colony will be formed
on Magdalena bay. The telegrom said
'The report is completely incorrect.

arrangements with Japan
WASHINGTON, April 5.-Discuss-
ing Lodges resolution in the senate

Immediately all details of the alleged
plot of Japan to secure military base
on Magdalena bay Congressman
Needham of California said to the
United Press: There is absolutely
no justification on the part of Japan
to attempt to get a cOaling station in
North America. If she tries to get
foothold here in time of peace,
America should investigate. In the
event of ultimate American interven-
ton in Mexico, possibly Japan would
join Mexico, but | don't believe this
is likely. II the japanese are really
endeavOring to get into Magdalena
bay and are seeking an excuse for a
clash with America, we might have a

A Good Big Job.

Several New York schoolteachers
paid a visit to Bloomingdale insane
asylum and we're approached by a
gentleman who showed them about
the grounds. In the course of his
remarks he dwelt with particular
emphasis on the fact that some in
sane people were of such cunning
that one could not discover their
condition except by some strange re-
mark let fall by chance. After two
pleasant hours spent in the COM
pany of their guide the teachers
were about to return when one OF
them, wishing to take a not too
abrupt leave, remarked:
"'Time must pass slowly here for
you among so many lunatics."
"'There is where you are wrong"
replied the man. 81 am engaged
five hours a day in my life work"
"How interesting" cooed the
teachers.

oLO TIME GEOGRAPHY.
Sailors Yarns and Flights Of Fancy
Recorded as Facts.

In the old days, before the ex-
plorers had so thoroughly mapped,
charted and otherwise made known
to all the mysterious places OF the
earth, geography must have been a
vastly more interesting, even fasci-
! mating, study than it is today. So
little was known positively about
the distant world and so much de-
pended on the tales of seamen that
it would seem each geographer
chose his facts to suit himself. The
result was that there was a never
ending variety about the old geog.
raphies.
"The joint snake" declared the
author of Geography Made Easy"
more than a hundred years ago, sis
a great curiosity. It's skin is as hard
as parchment and as smooth as
glass. 1t is so stiff it can hardly
bend itself into a hoop and so brit
tie that when it is struck it breaks
like a pipestem. You may with a
whip break it into pieces not an
inch long and produce not the least
tincture of blood"
ON California" the old geog-
raphy stated, "there fall in the
morning great quantities of dew,
which, settling on the rose leaves,
becomes hard like mamma, having
all the sweetness of refined sugar
without its whiteness."
Another curious fact set forth by
the cid time geographer was that in
the Friendly islands the great men
we're fond of a singular kind of lux
ury, which was to have some one sit
beside them all night and beat on
different parts of their body until
they went to sleep, after which they
would relax a little of their labor
unless the subject appeared likely
to wake, in which case the opera
tors would redouble their exertions
until the subject was again fast
asleep.
The diversions of the Scots, as
given in the ancient geography,
were dancing, goff and curling.
The golf is a species Of ball playing
performed with a bat and ball, the
extremity of the bat being loaded
with lead, and the party which
strikes the ball with fewest strokes
into "A hole wins the game"
To the question, "What curiosi-
ties are there in France" this re-
ply is made: "a fountain near Gre
noble emits a flame which will burn
paper, straw, etc, but will not burn
gunpowde2, Within about eight
leagues of the same place is an in
accessible mountain in the form of
a pyramid reversed"
In like manner the old geogra-
pliers ranged from Australia to
New England, setting forth the
most marvellous matters. - New
