Malta underwent a geographical As
well as a political change through its
acquisition by England in 1914. 1t had
always been regarded as part of Afri-
ca. to which it seemed to belong both
from topography and language. After
its annexation. however. it was discov-
cred that the garrison was entitled to
the higher pay granted to troops en-
ployed out Of Europe and was there
fore more privileged than the soldiers
in the Ionian islands. To remedy this
parliament passed an act decreeing
that so far as pay went Malta should
be regarded as part of Europe 1t
used to be a joke that Malta had be-
come European by act of parliament,
and the jest soon became a reality

QUEER QUITO.

A City With No chimneys and Where
Carriages Are Curiosities.
Travellers in South America see many
strange places, but the queerest of all
is probably Quito, the capital of the
republic of Ecuador. The first thing
which strikes a visitor to that city is
that there are no chimneys to the
houses.
Charcoal is all that is burned there
other popularity is that while the
streets are well paved you may pass
days in the city and never see wheel.
ed vehicle.
There are some carriages in Quito,
but they are rarely used, and when
one of them comes rafting along ev-
erybody turns out to look at it as at
some curiosity.
A third popularity is that while the
bulk Of the population dress in ponchos
"a kind Of cloak or loose garment and
short linen trousers a considerable
number of people-white men-are to
be seen walking about and wearing
frock coats and tall hats. These men,
the visitor is generally told. are en-
Hghtened and cultivated men. natives
of Spanish origin, who claim that they
form the nation of EcuadOrians. In.
dams, of course, do not count.
Every white man in Quito who can
possibly manage it wears this sort of
coat and hat to emphasize his impor-
lance and highly civilized condition.
This dress justifies him in calling
himself doctor and others in so styling
him, and he also thinks that it gives
him claim to come into your apart
ments without being invited and try
to borrow cents from you.

pine that formed his domiciie while
his mate was alive. No other female
eagle can tempt him to foresake his
disconsolate life.

Royal Prerooativss.

Some Of the privileges appertaining
to the royal prerogative extend to the
kings household. His majesty cannot
be arrested or sued in the law courts.
for ''the king can do no wrong" and
no servant employed in waiting or at
tending on the royal presence can be
arrested or taken in execution Of a
civil action unless the permission of
the board OF green cloth. which regu-
lates the duties of royal officials. be
first obtained. This privilege was not
instituted for the personal benefit of
the servants, but in order that the SOW
ereign might not be put to inconven-
fence by being deprived of an attend
ant and also as a mark of respect to
the throne.-London Chronicle.

FIND A USE FOR sWEEpINGs
Street Refuse Makes Good Fertilizer
II Il Is Quite Free From
Oil


The United States department OF
agriculture has been conducting elab-
crate experiments to ascertain the
value Of street sweepings as a ferti-
lizer. ]. J. Skinner and J. H. Beattie
Of the bureau Of soils tried samples
collected In various ways upon wheat
corn and radishes and found that
hand sweepings we're best, but not
nearly SO good as weIl.rotted stable
manure; that machine sweeplngs
were about onethird as good as hand
and that decomposed sRsepings we're
almost useless.
The reason for this was that the
sweepings contained much lubrlcaling
oil The experinenters made tests
Of sweeplngs from which the oil had
been extracted and found that both
hand and machine sweepings pro-
duced as good results as stable ma
nure, while the decomposed sweep
ings were not far behind
The department issues bulletin
warning farmers and gardeners that
sweepings from which the oil has not
been extracted will eventually impair
the productiveness Of soil, unless
through drainage the oily material Is
drained OF or chsnGed.

Whales are rarely thought Of as vo-
crlists, yet according to Miss A. D.
Cameron In The New North" they
really have a distinctive song Of their
own.
A certain Captain Kelly was the
first to notice that whales sing. One
Sunday, while officers from three whal-
ing ships were "mmming7 over their
afternoon walrus meat, Kelly started
up with i hear a bowheadi" There
was much chatting about "Kelly's
band" but Kelly weighed anchor, and
went to ind the band-wagon. Every
sail followed his, with the result that
three whales we're bagged.
Among bowheads, this singsong Is a
call that the leader OF the school, as
he forces a passage through Bering
sea, makes in order to notify those
that follow that the straits are clear
Of ice.
Walruses and seals and all true mann
mails that have lungs and live in the
water have a bark that sounds strange
enough as it comes up from hidden
depths Every lookout from tho mast
head notices that. when one whale is
struck, the whole school is CALLED
or stampeded at the very impact Of
the harpoon: they have heard the
death song.
The sound that the bouhead makes
Is ike the long.drawn-out ehoo.hoooo-
oo!s OF the hoot-owI A whaler says
that the cry begins on F. and may
rise 70 A, 3, or even c before Slipping

with the humpback the tone is much
finer. and sounds across the water like

 seen no one save the deputies and guards of the condemned cell. Yesterday he was allowed the choice of priest, and it Is understood that he has made confess sicn of faith. The condemned negro was shaved and neatly attired yesterday in black suit bought for him by the county. Chief Deputy Metealfe said Yesterday that White had given them no trouble fer some time, and that he seemed to take the knowledge of his impending death very quietly. He only smiles in answer to questions.
 Ali the preparations for the hanging were completed yesterday evening. The black cap is ready and the rope has been taken down from the courthouse tower. where il has been stretching for months.
 Whites execution was originally set for July 9. but owing to the fact that his testimony was needed in the Yenable case. the governor granted a respite of 50 days. According to the negros own con- fession, he is guilty of the murder of three negroes and one white man.
 The Rev. ]. Fl. Pearson, colored pastor of the New Hope Baptist church, who talked with the condemned man yester- day. said that apparently White is recon ciled to his sentence: that the negro has been converted to the Baptist creed and bapsiaed.
