An Ancient Castle.

By the purchase of Maiden Castle, near Dorchester. through the duchy of Cornwall, the king of England has saved from neglect and possible des- trI1ction one of the most perfect pre- historic encampments in Great Britain, the rival of Stonehenge in age and in tereSt. The Notifications were erected by race who existed long before the days of historical records and who gave it the name of Mai Dun, or Hill of Strength. Maiden Castle is an in- trenched hill rather than a castle, for on the north side these prehistoric builders raised three great ramparts sixty feet high, with deep ditcMes in- tervening, and similar ramparts were cunningly arranged to cover each other on the other side of the hill The only entrances are by winding paths which form nazes among the ramparts and which lead to the top of the hill, where a great dew pond was built, in which, by an ingenious feat of engineering possible to collect quantities of water for the animals and inhabitants of the hill, On the plain at the top, which covers 120 acres, the neolithic man could leave his cattle absolutely secure from attack by wolves or by human enemies, The Romans occupied the fortress in later years and strengthen ed it with stoneWork but the triumph of having created this gigantic in trenchment belongs to the engineers of the forgotten Celtic tribes.

Automobile Traffic Makes 1t Dangerous fer Youthful Pedestrians-Seaae Pee-
 pie Favor Signs at Dangerous Places

Sunday there was an almost con- stant procession of automobiles pass ing through the borough, and at the rate of speed some of them were go- ing pedestrians and vehicles were ih considerable danger. One small boy would have been killed if the frighten- ed scream of his mother had not caused the chauffeur of the car to stop, The fact that the car was not exceed ing the speed limit saved the chiIdS life. A man from Norwich who passes through Main street occasionally goes at speed that is nothing shore of murderous. Some people believe the new macadam road is a fine inStitu- tions but the fact that there are no crossWalks and that it is down grade one way may cause serious accidents. In a few weeks school will open and Main street will be filled with needless children, and some steps should be taken by the authorities to protect the corner of School and Main streets at least. The turn in Sylvandale, known as The Bend, is another dangerous place where children must cross the road to attend school. In other towns signs are placed a number of feet be- fore such dangerous places, and now that the roads in the borough and Sylvandale are going to warrant it some citizens believe that the towns should be well protected against acci- dent if possible.

clothes OF the Caucasian. A copy of the
edict has been received by Yung Yew.

change in the situation regarding the
taxicab strike yesterday. neither side
departing n jot from the attitude
taken all through the dispute. SO far
as observations in the streets of Lon
don could give an idea. the only in
convenience the public was that
when a taxicab could not be obtained
horse vehicle had 10 be hired. There
were difficulties. however, in the rushcs
following the afternoon pantomime
performances.
Generally speaking. the view Of the
mems leader, that the men were solid.
was correct. The associated proprie-
tors are determined TO adhere To- the
award under which the price OF petrol
was automatically increased 10 thir-
teenpence a gallon, and the men on
strike refuse to pay one farthing more
than eightpence. There Is no likcii-
hood Of either side yielding. The whole
trade is receiving a severe blow. as
the public is being made 10 use the
buses and the tubes. and will prob
ably adhere in some measure To the
habit thus formed.
