BRIDGE OF THE SEAS.
The Isthmus From Which Every Other
isthmus Has Been Named.

The Bridge of the Seas Is the
striking name which pindar gives to
the narrow isthmus which connects
the gulf of Corinth with the Aegean
sea. 1t is one OF the most interesting
strips of soil on the five continents. 1t
Is the iSthmuS par excellence of all the
world. for from its Greek name, 18TH
mia. every other isthmus has been
named.
The ancients were not good sailors.
They never went by sea where they
could conveniently go by land, and to
cross this narrow neck of land, only
four miles wide. saved them many
weary league of sailing around
stormy coast in going from the Pelo-
ponnesus to Attica and indeed from
Europe to Asia.
The southeastern point of Attica was
especially dangerous, and an old prov
erb used to run, when you are round
ing Cape Malta forget all you have at
home" Indeed. navigation in these
seas was almost wholly abandoned in
the winter months. and we remember
that in the graphic account Of st.
Pauls shipwreck he advised the cap
tain to winter In the Cretan harbor of
Fair Ravens. Through disregarding
this advice disaster came to ship and
crew and prisoners alike.
No wonder, then, that the isthmus
which the ancient city Of Corinth dom
mated, became at one time the busiest
and perhaps the most notable strip of
land which the world knew. More
battles have been fought. more dynas
ties established or dethroned. just here
in all probability than In any other
spot on the earth's surface.-Christian

CARPETS FOR ROADS.
An "EIastic Skin" Recommended by
English Expert.

A lecture was recently delivered by
a member OF the road board before the
Royal Institution of London on The
Road-Past. Present and Future" The
lecturer said the problem Was to find
the best mode by which Il road should
be constructed so that its surface would
not be broken by traffic, SO that the
transit might be custer for both pas
sengers and goods, Il road which would
form neither puddle holes nor exude
mud from vehicles and create no dust
when the weather WAS dry.
One thing was universally recognize
ed--that the road OF the future should
be Il truly bound road in which. wha--
ever kind OF stone was used. the stone
should be held together so that it
would form Il crust. The lecturer sug-
gested that what he called Il carpet or
an elastic skin should be adopted as
the covering.
The carpet, he thought, should be
made Of bituminous material mixed

The advantage Of such a carpet. 1t
was said. would be to permanently
protect the crust. and Just as carpet
OH the floor softens the step so would
this carpet for the roads silence the
noise and reduce the shock Of rolling
vehicles. 1t was admitted that the
original cost Of road so laid would
be more than that Of a mud bound
road. but spreading the cost over a
series Of years 1t would probably not
be so great. since the crust Of the road
itself would not have to be renewed

A ROYAL FEATHER CLOAK.
kalakaua Couldn't Wear It. and His
Groom Oisqraced 1t.


When King Kaiakaua OF Hawaii Wis
tied Japan many years ago he was
very anxious to exhibit to the Japa
nese his famous royal feather cloak. Ii
did not look well draped over the regu.
Tar costume OF the king. which was
based on European military models
1t was out of the question to wear ii
draped over brown cuticle. as was the
ancient fashion. Finally it was decid-
ed to let Robert. one of his attendants
wear it.
william n. Armstrong, the kings al
torney general. said: This additional
service delighted Robert. who now. ac
cording to a confidential statement
made to his Japanese attendant. was
keeper OF the royal standard. groom
of the feather cloak and valet in or
dinary.' While in the imperial car. on
the way to Tokyo. the kings suit had
suddenly seen Robert sitting in state
in the luggage car dressed in silk hat.

royal cloak hanging over his shoulders.

OF Japanese attendants who were
standing before him lost in admira

But Robert was scarcely equal to
the dignity that was his. In his ca
pacity OF valet he preceded the party
to the palace assigned to them and
discovered there abundance of wines
and spirits. which he consumed until
they arrived. He was found asleep in
the kings hedchamber with the silk
hat far down over his head and the
gorgeous cloak askew on his shoulders
He WAS at once deposed from his office
