Iceberg Was an Acrobat,

Not far from the spot where the II
tanic was sunk by an iceberg in April,
1912, q fleet OF IA icebergs, some Of
them rising to more than 100 feet
above the water line, were sighted by
the steamship Mmaires on a recent
voyage.
Captain Fleming Of the Munaifes
says that one of the bergs gave a re-
markable exhibition of tumbling as the
vessel sailed past. It had apparently
lost a good deal Of its under water
weight through the action Of the warm
sea water. and as they watched it the
great iceberg suddenly tipped to star
board and rolled over with an immense
splash. As it fell, big section of the
top broke away, with the result that
the balai e was altered and the berg
tumbled back again. Then, Just as it
was righting itself, another section
broke of, and it tumbled once more.
The sight was most unusual one

'l'he branch criminal courts were
planned under regime of booze and we
will soon have to recast the plan for the
