Sun Shines on London
Diners in Evening Dress.

writes Lady Mary from London In the
Pittsburgh Gazette Times. the problem
OF evening gayety for people who are
nervous concerning air raids and other
dark horrors has been solved.
In town the effect is specially not
able and restaurants and theaters are
filled with well dressed people who do
not seem to mind in the least appearing
in the broad sunshine clad in the con-
ventional habiliments that used to be
strictly confined to the hours of the
setting sun.
To dine at 1880 o'clock with bare
shoulders and correctly coiffed head
and to realize that il is actually, "ac-
cording to the sun" only $50. is quite
a curious feeling for most of us, and
one thing ! notice is that the feminine
members of the fashionable contingent
have taken to being much more careful
of the composition of their compilations
than they used to be when they sailed
forth confident in the fact that well
shaded electric light hid many signs
of additional touches to natures bloom.

with a breadth of about thirty miles and a width of twenty. It's general shape was that of shallow funnel, all the sides sloping down to a consid- erable lake in the center. This lake
 may have been ten miles in circumfer ence and lay very green and beautiful in the evening light, with a thick fringe of reeds at it's edges and with its sur. face broken by several yellow sand banks, which gleamed golden in the mellow sunshine A number of long, dark objects, which were too large for aIligators and too long for canoes, lay upon the edges of these patches of sand. With my glass could clearly see that they were alive.
 From the side of the plateau on which we were slopes of woodland, with occasional glades, stretched down for five or six miles to the central lake I could see at my very feet the glade of the iguanodons, and farther off was a round opening in the trees which marked the swamp of the pterodac-

 He stood on the boxes while I faced the trunk and was gently raising me when Challenger sprang forward and gave me such thrust with his huge hand that be fairly shot me into the tree. With both arms elasping the branch, scrambled hard with my feet until I had worked, first my body and then my knees on to it. There were three excellent offshoots, like huge rungs of a ladder, above my head and a tangle of convenient branches be- yond. so that I c1ambered onward with such speed that soon lost sight of the ground and had nothing but foli- age beneath me. Now and then en- countered a check, and once l had to shin up a creeper for eight or ten feet, but I made excellent progress, and the booming of Challengerss voice seemed to be great distance beneath me The tree was. however, enor- nous, and, looking upward. I could see no thinning of the leaves above my head. There was some thick, bush1ike clump which seemed to be a parasite npon branch up which I was swarm ing I leaned my head round it in or der to see what was beyond, and I nearly fell out of the tree in my sur prise and horror at what I saw,

ty1s. On the side facing me, however. the plateau presented very different aspect. There tne basalt cliffs of the outside were reproduced upon the in- side, forming an escarpment about 200 feet high, with a woody slope be meath it.
 Along the base of these red cliffs, some distance above the ground, could see a number of dark holes through the glass, which I conjectured to be the mouths of caves. At the opening of one of these something white was shimmering, but was un- able to make out what it was. I sat chartfng the country until the sun had set and it was so dark that I could no longer distinguish details. Then l climbed down to my companions wait ing for me so eagerly at the bottom of the great tree. For once I was the hero of the expedition. Alone I had thought of it, and alone had done it, and here was the, chart which would save us months blind gropfng among unknown dangers. Each of them shook me so1emnly by the land.
 But before they discussed the details of my map I had to tell them of my encounter with the ape man among the branches. This I did without emitting any of the desails.
 He has been there all the tirne,'' said I.
 How do you know thst?" asked Lord John.
 Because lave never been without that fleeing that something malevolent was watching us. I mentioned it to you, Professor Challenger Try to re- fresh your memory
 Our young friend certainly said something of the kind. He is also the one among us who is endowed with that Celtic temperament which would make him sensitive to such impress sions.''
 That evening by the light of the fire and of a single candle the first map of the lost world was elaborated. Ev- cry detail which had roughly noted from my watchtower was drawn out in its relative place Cha1lengers pen cil lowered over the great blank which marked the lake.
 What shall we call it?' he asked at length.
 Why should you not take the chance of perpetuatfng your own name?' said SummerIee, with his usual touch of acidity.
 T trust, sir, that my name will have other and more personal claims upon posterity," said Challenger severely ttAny ignoramus can hand down his worthless memory by imposing it upon a mountain or river. I need no such monument Let our young friend give it a name"

It was long, whitish and blotched with pfmples, the nose fattened and the lower jaw projecting, with bristle of coarse whiskers round the chin. The eyes, which were under thick and heavy brows, were bestial and fero- cfous, and as it opened it's mouth to, snarl what sounded like a curse at me I observed that it had curved, sharp canine teeth. For an instant I read hatred and menace in the evil 5 eyes. Then, as quick as a flash, came an expression of overpowering fear.

DOUBLE MURDER
AT KATAlLA

A Katalla dispatch tells of a
double tragedy which was enacted
at the Chilkat village, a short dis
lance from Katalla. Two Indians
who had been drinking rather
freely, became involved in a quar-
rel which resulted in one, Char
ley Kocklow, drawing a gun and
shooting Charley Thomas, who
died almost instantly from the
wounds received. Klocklow, be-
coming alarmed at his rash deed,
and evidently fearful of the con-
sequences, ended his life The
news was brought to town by
several natives, and Judge Robert
Gray, who is ex-officio coroner,
started party out in search of
the bodies. They were both found
on the beach and brought to Ka-
ITALIA. There were no gunshot
wounds nor powder marks on the
remains of Kocklow and some
little mystery surrounds his death.
The coroner started for the scene
OF the tragedy to investigate.
