TeIenhones in sweden.

Anyone wishing tofmake a long dis
lance telephone call in Sweden has the
choice of three classes of service, his
selection usually being determined by
how much in a hurry he is to have his
call put through by the operator The
first class comprises the usual long dis
lance call, which can be made at ordi-
nary rates. Frequently the traffic con-
gestion over the telephone circuits is so
great that a considerable delay is in
volved. In that case he can make the
call at the so-called urgent" O tex
press" rate, which is three times tile
ordinary rate, and which has priority
over all ordinary rate calls. 1t some
times happens, however, that even this
express service is unsatisfactory, and
as a last resort the telephone caller
may receive a so-called lightning" SER
vice, which has absolute priority above
all ordinary and express traffic. For
each call of this class he must pay 100
kronen ($26.S9 par value) in addition
to the sum Of three times the ordinary
rate.

unlnua Memorial Planned.

We contribute to all kinds of enter
prises and memorials, so we are not
surprised to hear of 4 revival of a plan
to erect q. memorial lighthouse in hon
or of Christopher Columbus, says the
Scientific American. The project to
erect a Columbus lighthouse memorial
In Santo Domingo, where, many histo-
rans contend, the remains of Column
bus lie. is not a new one. It origi-
mated before the World war, but was
temporarily abandoned during the con-
fict. AS previously announced, the
memorial would take the form Of a.
massive tomb, its exterior patterned
after the lines of Grants tomb in New
York. On the top Of the tomb would
be a beacon tower about 300 feet high,
in the top Of which would be a great
light as an aid to navigation.

III Idea Of q Good Legislator.

During the last session OF the Mlch-
igan Legislature one member from the
peninsula, a tall, angular man
with a white mustache Of walrus pat
tern and the faculty of being ablesto
throw both thumbs u OF joint at will,
made himself conspicuous by voting
mo, on every bill, resolution, or 9TH
er form OF business that came up.
However innocent a measure might
he. the upstate man voted against /
st~entoriously.
Finally a legislator from Detroit
weakened under the strain, and ap.
preached the gentleman with the wal
rus whiskers.
"Why is it," asked the man from
Detroit, that you vote No on every
thing2'
"Ill tell YOU said he of the walr1ls
mustache, with a confidential air.
"s%eYenty-hye per cent OF those bills
and resolutions are bad, and ought
never to be passed. And fgger that
n man VINO votes right rs per cent
OF the time is a pretty burned good

He Was quite sure.

A young flower girl screamed out
her wares in such a shrill, penetrating
voice that the occupants of the Office
around found it a great annoyance.
"Reminiscences had no effect on her,
and she was SO pretty that the magis-
trates could not be induced to fine her.
So a certain professional man, deter
mined to end the nuisance, offered a
liberal reward to the police officer
who succeeded in stopping the girls
noise within a limited time.
A month went by aud then, quite
suddenly, the girl disappeared from
the streets.
Shortly afterward a handsome
young constable entered the profess
SIGNAL mans Office and claimed the re-
ward.
"You are quite sure you have per
manently rid us Of the girl?" he was
asked.
quite sure, sir" he answered.
''That's good. How on earth did you
manage it,"
II married her and she's making her
racket at home now!" was the rueful
reply.
