Accidents apart, traveling ,bv aeroplane is calculated in some ja rections to be a healthy modi of getting abo t from place to place. The vehicle will rise above the im purities contained in the air of the streets and may even reach a level far removed from the madding crowd of microbes. The ‘aeroplane, it may be assumed, will soar, it need not be at a very great height, yet nevertheless into regions of the air purified by light, ozone and the process of sedimentation. All this sounds ideal; but, on the other hand, there will be a diminution of pressure which may unfavorably af fect the heart's action, for the puLo rate increases a.- the aimosphei ■ pressure is withdrawn.

According to Japanese papers, a syndicate, headed by Oshiro Manyu, has made arrangements to float a joint stock company, with a capital of 300,000 yen, to construct a float ing pleasure hall and hotel for loca tion in the most picturesque portion of Tokyo hay. It is proposed to build a great seven decked vessel, about 400 feet in length and thirty two feet in breadth, with provision for restaurants, hotel accommoda tion, dining halls, conservatories, an aquarium, sea bathing, etc. It is intended that the vessel shall be connected with the land by a long pier, visitors being thus able to go direct on board from their jinrik isha. In the Locust's Wake. There is very bad news from Abyssinia. Asa sequel to the dev astation by locusts some months ago wido tracts of country are now in a state of famine. Prices have gone up twentyfold, and destitution of the most acute kind rages every where owing to the utter destruc tion of the crops. The worst case is that of the scattered but numer ous populations who live among the lower slopes of the mountains diffi cult of access. It is becoming al most impossible to feed and clothe the children gathered into the mis sionary schools. —London Globe. There No Lord Bacon. Apropos of Dr. Karl Bleibtreu’s new theory about the origin of Shakespeare’s plays, a correspond ent writes to the London Chronicle as follows: “When will the British public learn to call things and men by their correct names? There is no such person in history as ‘Lord Bacon.’ The great Elizabethan, who by a few modern idiots is ac cused of having written the plays, was by name Sir Francis Bacon, Baron Verulam, Viscount St. Al bans. In no standard work of ref erence is he spoken of as ‘Lord Bacon.’ ” The Last cf His Legion. Apostolos Mawrogenis, the last of the Greek champions of liberty of 18:31, has died at the age of 114. Mawrogenis was born at Piraeus in 1792, and on account of the cruelty of the Turkish government had to ilee with his parents to Italy, where he later studied medicine. When the war of independence started he formed a legion of the Greeks studying in Italy and with it served under the command of the grea't Kolokotrom. He continued in the army for forty-five years and retired as surgeon general. Bottled Love Letters. Missouri girls are still throwing bottled lette-rs into the Missouri riv er to see what will turn up. A year ago a Carroll county girl cast a mes sage on the waters at St. Louis. Kecently she received an answer from a young engineer in the em ploy of the government river im provement service stationed a few miles below Memphis, Tenn.

A shore crab in the Cape Verde islands may be seen running along like a piece of paper blown by a strong wind. There are crabs in Ascension island that steal young rabbits from their nests, and the robber crab of the Philippines cracks cocoanuts and eats them. Game of Alphabetical Dinner. This game is a surprising declara tion of the capacity of the guests present. The leader begins with “A,” the first letter of the alphabet, and announces an edible beginning with “A,” saying, “I had for dinner today antelope.” Then his neigh bor on the left is obliged to add something beginning with “B” and adding it to what “A” has already said. He says, “I had for dinner to day antelope and beans.” The next person continues, “I had for dinner today antelope, beans and carrots.” Then the next neighbor adds, “1 had for dinner today antelope, beans, carrots and dates.” This can be carried on with almost every let ter in the alphabet, and the game lasts until the list grows beyond the memory of the players.
