unique Engineering Feat.

When railroad building was under taken in Alaska following the discov' cry of gold unique engineering feat was performed. At q point eighty miles out of Skagway the survey had been made for the road along the shore of lake. but it was found to be so irregular and broken by so many coves that the plan was adopted of getting a better line by lowering the level of the lake. This was done by cutting an outlet channel, through which fourteen feet of the lake drained off. But pres ently the new channel, having been cut through sandy hill. gave way. and the escaping lake water wore an enor nous canyon through the country and reduced the lake level again over seE- enty feet. A fine. level roadbed was secured over what was formerly the bed of the lake.-ArgOnaut.

The Mon Whose Descendants Con.
 quered Normandy and England.
 The vikings and their followers who swarmed up the Seine and the Thames and whose descendants conquered Nor mandy and then England were bred of long years of independence and property rights, while those they over- threw were dependent and nonland- owners. They were the hardest and boldest travellers of their time.
 The Norwegian sealers still cruise about the sea as far north as it is open, and the history of polar explora- ton has been associated with Norway from Othar in King Alfred's time to Nansen in our own. In the Shetland islands the people still talked Norwe- gian in the last century, Greenland and Iceland were colonized from Nor way, and from Iceland comes litera- ture in old Norwegian, still the Ian guage of the people, which ranks with the hero tales of the east, of Greece. of Germany and England.
 The Orkneys, the Shetlands, the Hebrides and the Isle of Man were possessions of Norway for hundreds of years, and for more than 300 years Norwegian kings ruled in Dublin. Many of the Danes who conquered England were Norsemen, and the con- querors of Normandy were mostly of the Norwegian viking breed.-Price Collier in Scribner's Magazine.

Frederick's War on Coffee.

In a manifesto issued by Frederick the Great ill 1779 the mighty monarch deplored "the increased consumption of coffee by my subjects and the amount of money that goes out of the country in consequence. Everybody is using coffee This must no longer be-. My subjects must drink beer. His majesty was brought up on beer, and so were his ancestors. Innumerable battles have been fought and won by soldiers nourished on beer, and the king does not believe that coffee drink ing soldiers can be depended upon to endure hardships or to conquer his enemies should another war occur Coffee roasting was made govern ment monopoly, and q prohibitive price was charged for the berry. Coffee smellers" were appointed all over Prus- sia to check illicit roasting. Coffee was therefore busted from popular fla vor.-London Chronicle.

Manning tho Trenches and Locating
 the Enemy by Dust Clouds.
 A column of infantry, marching four abreast-the regular marching form will pass q given point at the rate of 175 minute. At that rate it will take q division, which contains about 10000 men. about an hour to pass.
 A division. which is the largest body known in the organization of the Amer ican army, will fully man two miles of trenches. The regulation distance in the manning of trench is a yard to a man. There are three lines, how ever, needed to fully man such de- fenses-the firing line, which is down in the trench, yard between each man; the support, which is back short distance, and the reserve. which is behind the support. These three parts of the defense are of equal size. In locating an enemy dust clouds are often excellent indications. A low. thick cloud indicates infantry, high and thin cloud indicates cavalry, while broken cloud indicates artillery or wagon trains. An experienced scout can closely estimate the character and strength of an enemy solely by the dust cloud.
 An aeroplane to be perfectly safe must keep at an elevation of at least 4.OOO feet above the ground. Although the telegraph and telephone have become generally used ill battle for purposes of communication. for dis tances under half mile the old fash toned courier and horse are still exclu sively used. These have been found q swifter and surer means of communi- cation for short distances than either telephone or telegraph. - Washington | Star.

TWO VIEWS OF A DANDY.
In Which Carlyle and pr. Holmes Took
 Opposite Sides.

Opposite Sides.
 When your gaze runs afoul of male adorned with a wrist watch and pink socks and purple necktie, think kind ly or unkindly of him-it all depends upon whether you swear by Thomas Carlyle or Oliver Wendell Holmes, both of whom have furnished intimate descriptions of the dandy" Says the former in "Sartor ResartuS:"
 "A dandy is a clothes wearing man a man whose trade, office and exist ence is the wearing of clothes. Every faculty of his soul, spirit, purse and person Is heroically consecrated to this one object, the wearing of clothes wise ly and well, so that, as others dress to live, he lives to dress"
 And now look on the other side of the picture furnished by Holmes:
 There was Alcibiades, the 'curled son of Clinias,' an accomplished young man, but what would be called a 'swelr in these days. There was Aris- totle, a distinguished writer of whom you have heard-a regular dandy he was. So was Marcus Antoninus, so was Sir Humphry Davy, so was Lord Pal, merston, if l am not forgetful. Dap- dies such as was speaking of have rocked this planet like a cradle-aye and left it swinging to this ay."-Phil, adelphia Ledger.

ORIGIN OF STARS.
1t May Be That the Nebular Hypothe.
 sus Is All Wrong.

1t May Be That the NebuIar Hypothe-
 sus Is All Wrong.
 The nebular hypothesis is that the stars were formed by the cooling and cohering of the gaseous nebulae. These "filmy veils of luminous gas" which are visible to the naked eye in the Milky way, are supposed to be star stuff. Many of these clouds have in their centers tiny spots of bright light, the supposed beginnings of new stars and suns.
 In 1910 astronomers at Lick observ- atory discovered that the older a star becomes the faster it travels through space. .Then the question arose. Can nebulae be stars in formation when their speed is even greater than the oldest stars?
 The astronomers began to doubt the old theory. Some years of hard work at Mount Hamilton and at the Univer' sity observatory in Chile were requir' ed. Now the velocities of forty nebu' lac are accurately known. The incred ible speed of these nebulae suggests that they are older, not younger, than the stars. It is possible that they are disintegrated stars and not stars tn the making at all.
 The director of the Lick observatory says: "The effect upon our ideas of the connection existing between planeta " nebulae and the stars is revolution ary. Apparently the stars have been evolved from planetary nebulae.
 What, then, are the nebulae if they are not star stuff? That is what the as tronomers at Lick have set themselves to "-EXchange.

When Napoleon Died.

July 10, 1S21.-The news has just af, rived of the death of Napoleon. He died on the 5th of May. was much astonished at the way the news was received. The hero which the whole French nation had worshiped, whom all Europe had trembled before, it might have been an ordinary actor who had died. Really one could feel great disgust. A mighty man indeed he was with all his faults. The first l heard of 1t was cried about the streets, La Mort de Napoleon St. Helene, Deux Sous."

whan kniahts Mere Bold.

When knights were clad in complete armor from top to toe it was essential that they should bear some sign by which their followers could distinguish them in battle. and this was the func' ton of their armorial bearings. Knights who omitted to wear their own arms ran considerable risk. and it is related that at the battle of Ban nockburn the last of the De Clares owed his death to his omission to wear his bearings. He was slain uRrecog' nized, whereas had he been known he would have been held prisoner for the ransom or as hostage.

The Fair at Tucson

The chief Arizona event of this week will be the southern Arizona Fair Tucson beginning March IS and continuing three days. This is net the best time of the year hold fair anywhere in the north temperate zone if d considerable horticultural or agricultural display desired but there many things which southern Arizona will have to show beside products of the farm, orchard and garden
 For one thing there will be the climate which is a most valuable exhibit, and it will seem of still greater value to the customers who gath climate in which thousands of people will throhg in the open air with the March weather back home, the meanest of all the year..
 And there will be many other exhibits beside the climate. There will be racing worth seeing. Grains all kinds the less perishabh of vegetables stocks of merchandise, machinery, works of art, live stock from heart of the chief catte-.rowing region of the southwest, and all things usually seeL at fairs will be there.
 We hope that Phoenix will send large con tngent It will do them good to minge with the Tucson people this occasion, for another thing we almost forgot mention will be on exhibition at fair, that is the warm hospitality of the people of Tucscn. But that is exhibition the whole year round
