UNDERGROUND ULSTER.

Pulling Relics Of Ancient Ways q
Living In ireland.
Curious underground passages called
"souterrains" exist in many parts OF
Ulster. They are built or dug a few
feet below the ground and laid out
with chambers and possible hiding
places or boiling holes. according to
more or less we'll defined plans. They
are not large enough for a man to
stand upright in. He would have to
crawl on his hands and knees to ex-
plore them OF to make use of them in
any way.
Some districts are honeycombed with
them. What could they have been
used for? Not for living in. though
primitive pottery has been found in
them: not for the dead. though some
Etruscan burial places were not dis
similar, because no bones have been
found; possibly for refugees. Some Of
the souterrains arc fifty to seventy feet
long.
Irish and local tradition attribute
them to the fairies. the good people.
the Danes-like the Essex Denc.holes.
which are probably only chalk pits-or.
in rare instances. to the Picts. But the
Danes referred to by the Irish coun-
try people are not the modern Danes.
but probably the Tuatha de Danaan. a
people who are said to have lived in
Ireland before the coming of the Celts.
They are the fairies" and are said to
have been of smnll stature. like "chil-
dren." the country people will tell one.

NEUTRAL WATERS.
River Stretches Where Fishermen Only
Waste Their Time.

Waste Their Time.
According to old fishermen. there is
what might be called neutral ground.
or, rather. neutral water. in rivers.
where there is no S Of trying to make
a catch unless it be that some fool fish
with a piscatorial brainstorm snatches
bait rs an insane human might grab
a redhot stove.
This neutral water is the part Of
the river where its flow encounters the
saline impregnation of the salt water
of the bay or ocean into which it final
~ empties. With the ebb and the flow
of the tide the salt water Of the bay
runs up into the river for miles. and
on the reverse the fresh water de-
scends several miles again to the bay
leading into the salt sea-.
There Is a midway between the salt
and fresh water points, however. that
very seldom shifts. Around this mid
way shad and blue and other salt wa
ter fish, if they visit at all, will hover
on the ocean side. On the fresh water
fringe will loiter such fish as fnhabit
currents that are devoid Of the saline
ingredient. II the fisherman happens
to cast bait in this neutral zone he ID
not likely to get either II kind or the
other.-New York Sun.

FORCE OF GRAVITY

Il Makes You Fall fastsr In Boston
Than In Mexico City.
Did you know that you drop" faster
In Massachusetts than in Mexico?
For instance. If you were to fall from
a twenty story building in Boston you
would descend a lot faster than II you
fell from the same height In the City
Of Mexico. ...
The principle Of this is quite simple.
even II it does seem 4 bit startling. 1t
is merely that as n goes toward the
equator the force Of gravity gets less
and less and the Quickness Of descent
OF a falling body slower; and, while
doubtless you would feel just as un'
comfortable falling that distance in
one place as in another and the results
would be Just as disastrous, there are
times and things in which the differ
cnce IS not only pcrceptible, but worth
a notice.
In Boston il you were to fire hori'
zontally with a rife and your gun were
sixteen feet from the ground the bul.
let fired would reach the ground one
second after it had left tile rife. But
II you were to take that same rife to
the City Of Mexico and fire it of the
same distance from the earth 1t would
take one and one-half seconds to reach
the ground.
So It is easy to see how when hunt
ing in different parts OF the world 1t
is necessary to calculate time from
this same shifting standard Of reckon
ing.-New York World.
