The Horses of ST. Mark,

The horses of st. Mark were tax
Ell from Chios in the fourth century
by the Emperor Theodosius and
placed in the great hippodrome at
Constantinople, whence they we're
taken by the Venetians in the year
1901. Venice and Constantinople
were bitter rivals in trade, and
largely through Venetian intrigue
and diplomacy the fourth crusade
was turned from its original pur.
pose into that of the capture and
practical destruction of the splen
did city on the Bosporus, thus max.
ing it possible later on for the
Turks to establish themselves on
the continent of Europe. 1t was
during the sack of the city by the
crusaders that it was despoiled of
its famous horses by the Venetians.

Wonders of a Singular Underground
Town In Galicia.


Wieliczka, some six miles from
Cracow, in Galicia, is an interest
ing town, not for what is in it, but
for what is under it. The salt mine
there is the greatest in the world
md the most wonderful. 1t actual
ly forms an underground city. The
Wieliczka salt mine is two and one.
half miles long from east to west
and 1850 yards wide from north to
south, says Il writer in the Man
chester Guardian.
1t has seven levels, and the low
est is nearly 1000 feet deep. 1t is
entered by eleven shafts. The differ
ent levels are connected by lights
Of steps hewn out of the rock salt.
In the mine are chapels, tramways,
a railway, IA railway station, a ball
room and several other halls, all
hewn out of the rock salt with elab-
crate architectural decoration.
There are sixty-two miles of pony
tramways and twenty-five miles of
railway. All these lines and the
principal passages, or streets"
meet in IA sort of central cavern.
Here is the central railway station
with spacious waiting rooms and an
excellent refreshment room. 1t
looks, according to a visitors de-
scription, o like a summer pa
vilion than Il railway station with
its latticed galleries and its rows of
stately pillars cleaning white and
iridescent.
The oldest building" in the mine
is the chapel of st. Anthony, which
dates from 1851. 1t contains three
affairs, a pulpit and much statuary,
all deliberately carved out Of rock
salt. But services are now held in
the modern but equally elaborate
chapel of st. Cunigunde, which is
entered by descending f~orty-six salt
steps. The chapel is fifty yards
long, fifteen yards wide and thirty
feet high and is used regularly for
worship.
The ballroom is a huge room,
where the miners often hold their
festivals. A miners orchestra plays
regularly in the hall, not only for
the dances, but for the entertain
ment of visitors. The mine has
been worked for at least 500 years.
1t belongs to the Austrian govern
ment and gives work to 1000 men.

"Sot' In His Ways,

Talking about folks being 'sot'
in their ways" said a writer, Gre
minds me of a pretty girl of twenty
who married a wealthy old widower
of over fifty. This old chap was
very much a widower. This girl
was, in fact, his fourth wife. Well,
on the return from the honeymoon
the husband after dinner took up
his hat, overcoat and umbrella. The
wife, beautiful in a white decollete
gown that was no whittier than her
shoulders, said:
"'Where are you going, dear?'
"He gave her a stern look and
answered coldly:
"'My dear, | am not in the habit
of telling my wives where | am go
ing every time | step out of the
house,"

A Faithful Servant.

Carlyle told once of a lawsuit
pending in Scotland affecting the
succession to a great estate of which
he had known something. The case
depended on a family secret known
only to one old servant, who re-
fused to reveal it. A kirk miai,ter
was sent to tel her she must speak
on peril of her soul. Peril of my
saulp she said. Sand would We put
the honor of an auld Scottish fam
lily in competition with the saul of
a poor creature like me?"

ing Secretary Polk and will be approved by
Secretary Of State Lansing before II is
dispatched to Ambassador Page in Eng
land. There will be no undue delay in it's
sending.
Officials here do not see any hope of
overcoming the attitude of the English Gov.
ernment American protests in the past
have been of no avail
Congress will probably remain qulescent
and allow the Administration to carry on
negotiations without making any protest
The minority. recognizing that 1t is helpless
and seeing political advantage in the pol
Icy of the Administration. will do nothing
to. stir up the subject in Congress. The
Democrats are entirely satisfied to permit
the conduct of the foreign policy to remain
entirely with the President
In the opinion of those who have fol-
lowed the course of the Department OF
State in the embargo disputes nothing will
come of the announced protest which will
be sent to England. At times there has
been n disposition to retaliate by forcing an
embargo on tie shipments of arms and am
muntion to the Allies in order to break
down Englands stubborn position on the
embargo of American goods not so badly
needed in war. This has come to nothing
because OF the powerful influences making
money in war supplies
