Gigantic and unparalleled plumb
ing operations to plug leaks in the
bed of the River Danube from the
subject OF controversy between the
governments of Baden and Wurttem-
berg, which has just been appealed to
the imperial Bundesrat for settle
ment. The case attracts attention to
the curious and almost unknown geo
graphical fact that branch of the
Danube flows into the Rhine and thus
7nally reaches the North Sea, thou
sands of miles from the Black Sea
where the main course of the Dan
ube ends.
For some two or three hundred
wears n part of the Danube has been
passing through subterranean chan

town OF Immendingen, in Baden.
emerging again in the valley of the
River Aach, some seven miles distant
where it forms the largest spring in
Germany. The source of the spring
was definitely established some years
ago by artifcially discoloring the
water of the Danube above Immen-
dingen. In recent years the phenom-
enon has become increasingly serious
for the towns lying on the Danube
III Wurttemberg, which are depend
ent upon 1t for water power, because
the leakage is steadily growing in
| quantity.
! Wurttemberg is attempting to as
sert its old water rights, while Baden
is disclaiming responsibility on the
ground that the leakage is a phenom-
enon of nature, the latter country
having deep interest in letting ma
ture have her way. inasmuch as nu.
merous manufacturing establishments
depending on the runaway waters OF
the Danube have sprung up in the
valley of the Aach
Civil engineers propose to settle
the problem by carrying a surface
channel from the Danube to the Aach
and building several dams on the
upper course of the latter to develop
electrical power. The holes in the
/ bed of the Danube would then be
/ hlled with cement, the total cost OF
the operation being estimated at moi

BY spreading the report that tle
Danish copper cent coins of the 1910
issue contained gold, n clever swind-
Ter has amassed a small fortune in
Denmark. Before spreading the ru-
NOR the swindler acquired large
collection of the 1910 issue of cop
pers. Then 1t became noised about
that through a mistake in the mint
gold had been mixed with the cop
per.
The price of the cent pieces began
to go up, some selling for as much as
dollar each. With the market at
the highest the collector distributed
his cents judiciously among the clam
orous bidders and escaped before it
became generally known that the
coins were worth only their face

His Majesty, who is very fond of

plural voting for members of the
Lansthinget, the upper house of the
Danish Legislature. The Conserya-
tiyes will lose heavily by the aboli-
ton of plural voting, and the pres

their voting strength greatly aug

BY the original constitution of

but in 1866 measure was carried
permitting heavily taxed voters more
than one vote for members of the
upper house. As counter demand
the conservatives in the lower house
will seek measure for proportional
representation, demand which
meets with opposition from section
OF the democratic parties. Unless all
the parties modify their demands and
the prospect for this at the present
time seems remote, it is hardly
likely that they will reach an amic-
able agreement. At any rate the
