Heroic British Seaman's Effort to Save
Chinansan Was In Vain.
When the Mauretania reached port
her officers pointed to Third Officer G.
@. Halliday as being worthy of an in
terview. They declared that the kings
medal for extreme bravery had been
received by him just before the ship
left Liverpool in consequence of his
attempt to rescue a Chinaman in the
shark infested Red sea last June.
From them it was learned that when
Halliday was on the steamer River
Clyde last summer a Chinaman fell
overheard. Halliday was resting in his
bunk, but the cry of Man o%verboardr'
sent him racing above.
The e was full of sharks, but he
plunged into the ocean to rescue the
Chinaman.
When Halliday came to the surface
he saw the Chinaman's legs torn off.
and a moment later another shark
dragged the body below. For an hour
and a half Halliday ioated. hardly
daring to make a movement, before he

The highest navigabIe body Of water
in the world is Lake Titicaca, which
lies in South America about midway
between the Horn and the equator.
With a size nearly as great as Lake
Erie, it is two miles above the level Of
the sea and is continually shrouded in
the clouds and mists Of the Andes.
Rugged. rocky islands dot its surface,
and 1t possesses dozens Of great, I'M
explored bays. Its average depth is
1000 feet-nearly twice that Of Lake
Superior-but in many places bottom
has never been found. The lake new
er freezes, although, because Of its
height, it is situated in q land Of al
most perpetual winter. Along the
shores are ruins of great cities, prob
ably of the Incas, but so ancient are
they that even the Indians have no idea
Of their origin or history. Several
steamers ply over the lake and carry
on a valuable trade in gold and other
products Of the mountains.-New York

The loo Good Abb.

There is no defense so familiar to
criminal courts as the alibi, proof that
the accused was not near the scene Of
a crime when that crime was commit
ted. There is no defense more salts
factory, except when it is too good. A
too good alibi is one Of the most sus-
picious things on earth. When an &C
cused man brings witnesses who swear
to his whereabouts for each minute Of
the period in question the jury begins
to doubt The foreman Of the jury
cannot prove where he was at the
same time with that much assurance.
Probably the judge cannot. How does
the accused man happen to have that
proof which others lack? Are his wit
nesses lying, or was the crime commit
ted earlier than the state thinks, and
is the alibi a 'plantT'' Honest men,
going unthinhngly about honest bust
ness, can seldom prove their where
abouts minute by minute. The fellow
who knows the need of an alibi has one
ready.-Chicago Journal.

A Queer View of Education.

Opposition to state education in the
past was due largely to a belief that
too much learning was not good for the
masses. The worthy Hannah More
even, who was one Of the most ear
nest supporters of the movement for
the establishment of schools for the
poor in England, had very definite
ideas as to how far the children should
be educated. The curriculum, she de-
clared, should comprise only reading
the Bible and the catechism, and "such
coarse works as may fit the children
for servants" adding decisively, 81 al
