The great Irrigating canal across the Talleys of Sosa and Ribabona, in Spain, which has just been completed, includes a monster siphon 3,500 feet long which brings the water up over a range of high hills. This was done to 6a ve tbe very much greater expense of tunnel ing. Many engineers said tbe plan could not be mads to work, but It proved a success when the sluice gates were recently opened by the king. The siphon consists of two great tubes, each 3,500 feet long and 12 feet IiABOEST SrTHOX IK THE WORLD. S inches in diameter, with a capacity of 7,700 gallons of water per second. The tubes are built of concrete made around wooden forms and bound at fre quent Intervals with steel hoops. The Inside is line'd with steel plate and the tubes when done were covered with earth for protection and strength. Two thousand men were engaged for several months in the construction work, and the result is that today tbe water of a fair sized river is actually ; running up hill. Rata Propagate Disease. Scientists are thoroughly convinced that rats are the. most prolific propaga tors of the plague, and a campaign of extermination has been begun against them in Japan. No less than 4,820,000 rats have b;en killed in Tokyo alone since 1900. A Japanese scientist says: "All the civilized nations have to fight this common enemy, the plague. I be lieve that, there ought to be an interna tional conference to discuss a plan, col lect money and organize an International army to fight and vanquish this disease from the surface of the earth. The expedition should be sent to tbe region of India and south China. The expense needed for such an enterprise would be only a small part of what the civilized nations are spending for their armies and navies." Zinc Dust Xonexploslre. In a recent article in a German pjper Herr Taul Speier shows that tbe spontaneous ignition' of zinc dust is out of the question when the material Is properly packed. Wetting of the material is also without danger. Igni t!on and explosion can only occur in the presence of air. The, matter is of tome importance, inasmuch as steam ship owners sometimes refuse to trans port thi3 material and fire underwrit ers have stringent regulations with re apect to it. Scientific American. u FAlexandre Dumis one day founa u his mail a '.etter from a French count suggesting collaboration in the writlup of a drama, Dumas to get the pe cuniary benefits and the count to share in the glory. The author sent the fol lowing answer: -Sir, I am not ii the habit of harnessing a horse and ai nss to ray carriage. I regret, therefore that I cannot accept your amiable proposition." The count, in his turn wrote: "Sir, your note refusing tc join me in literary work Is at hand. Oi course you are at perfect liberty ti refuse so advantageous an offer, but 1 forbid your calling me a horse in the future. CASTOR I A Por Infants and Children.

I think the last time we considered the matter -we decided for this" describing a neat thrust at Sir Jasper's waistcoat through the win dow with the long stem of his church warden. 'If I fall." said Sir Jasper, with the emotion which generally overtakes a man who contemplates a tragic con tingency to himself, "be gentle with her. She has sinned, but she was very dear to me." "She'll make a deuced elegant wid ow, saia btanora musingly, after a little pause. "You must conduct her back to her home," gulped Sir Jasper a minute "We decided for thta." later, slowly thrusting In his head again. "Alack, would that I had never fetched her thence. Had you but seen her when I wooed and won her, Tom! A country flower, all innocence; a wild rose. And now, deceitful, double faced!" Tis the way of the wild rose," said Stafford philosophically. "Let you but transplant it from the native hedge row, and before next season it grows double." Here the speaker, who was always ready with a generous appreciation of his own conceits, threw his head back and laughed consumedly, while Sir Jasper uttered some sounds between a growl and a groan. The volatile second in waiting wiped his eyes. Go to, man," cried he, turning with sudden irascibility upon his friend. for pity's sake take that lugubrious countenance of inine out of my sight. What the devil I ever saw In thee, Jasper, to make a .friend of, passes my romprehension, for of all things I love a fellow with a spark of wit. And thou, lad, lackest the saving grace of humor so woefully that, in truth, I fear well, thou art in a parlous state; I fear damnation waits thee, for 'tis incurabie. What! In God's name cannot a man lose a throw In the game of happiness and yet laugh? Cannot a husbandman detect a poacher on his land and not laugh as he sets the gin? Why," cried Mr. Stafford, warming to bis thesis, and clambering lightly out of the window to seat himself on the outer sill, "strike me ugly, shall not a gentleman be ever ready to meet his fate with a smile? I vow I've never yet seen Death's head grin at me but I've given him the grin back split me!" "Hark, hark!" cried Sir Jasper, pricking his strained ear. "D'ye hear?" "rooh!" said Mr. Stafford. "Only the wind in the tree." "Xay," cried Sir Jasper. "Hush, man; listen." An unmistakable rumbling grew upon the still night air, a confused C medley of sounds which gradually unraveled themselves upon their listening ears. It was the rhythmical striking of many hoofs, the roll of wheels, the crack of a merciless whip. "Faith and faith," cried Stafford, pleasantly exhilarated, "I believe you're right, Jasper. Here they conse!" The moonlight swam "blood red before Sir Jasper's flaming eye. "Pistols or 6 words?" queried he again of himself, and grasped his hilt as the nearest relief, pending the decisive moment. 4 Out slouched a couple of sleepy hostlers as Master Lawrence, mine host, rang the stable bell. ' Mistress Kitty, peering out of the carriage window, her shoulder still turned upon the unhappy and unforgiven swain, hailed the twinkling lights of the Bear inn with lively eyes. While the chaise described an irreproachable curve round the yard her quick glance had embraced every ele ment of the scene. Sir Jasper's bulky figure, with folded arms, was leaning against tbe post of the inn door await ing her approach retribution personi fied capriciously illumined by the orange rays of the landlord's lantern. Out in the moonlight, shining in his pearl gray satin and powdered head, all silver from crest to shoe buckle, like the prince of fairy lore, sat Staf ford on his window ledge, as gallant a picture to a woman's eye, the widow had time to think, as one could wish to see on such a night. 'Ob," she thought, "how we are go ing to enjoy ourselves at last!" And, being too true an artist to con sider her mere personal convenience upon a question of effect, she resolved to defer the crisis to the ripe moment, no matter at what cost. Accordingly, even as O'Hara cried out in tones of surprise and disgust, "Thunder and turf, my darling, if there Isn't now that blethering, ox. Sir Jasper!" Mis

Comedy

EGERTON CASTLE Pride of Jennico B Y EGERTON CAS T L E tress Kitty Instantly covered ner race with her lace and swooned away on the Irishman's breast. Sir Jasper charged the coach door. "Blethering ox!" he bellowed. "I'll teach you, sir, what I am! I'll teach that woman. I'll I'll" Here Stafford sprang lightly to the rescue. "For heaven's sake," said he, "think of our names as gentlemen! Let it be swords or pistols, Jasper, or swords and pistols, if you like, but not fisticuffs and collaring. Be quiet, Jasper. And you, sir." said he to O'Hara as sternly as he could for the tripping of his laughter, "having done your best to add that to a gentleman's head which shall make his hats sit awry for the remainder of his days, do you think It generous to give his condition so precise a name?" "Oh, hush!" cried O'nara In too deep distress to pay attention either to abuse or banter. "Give me room, gentlemen, for God's sake! Don't you see the lady has fainted?" With Infinite precaution and tenderness he emerged from the chaise with his burden, elbowing from his path on one side the curious and officious landlord, on the other the struggling husband. "Oh, what have I done at all!" cried the distracted lover as the inertness of the weight in his arms began to fill him with apprehension for his dear. "Sure, alanna, there's nothing to be afraid of! Sure, am I not here? Och, me darling, if" But here Sir Jasper escaped from his friend's 'control. "I'll not stand it," cried he. " Tis more than flesh and blood can endure. Give her up to me, sir. now dare you hold her?" He fell upon O'Hara In the rear and seized him, throttling, round the neck. "I'll dare you in a minute, ye mad divil!" yelled O'Hara in a fury no whit less violent than that of his assailant. Thus cried he, and choked. In the scuffle they had reached the parlor. "Oh, Jasper, Jasper, in the name of decency!" protested Stafford, vainly endeavoring to pluck the baronet from off the Irishman's back. . "And you, Denis, lad, I entreat of you cease to provoke him. Zooks, my boy, remember ho has some prior claim what shall I say? Some little vested interest" ' "I'll stuff him with his own red hair!" asseverated Sir Jasper, foaming at the mouth, as, under a savage push from O'Hara's elbow, he fell back, staggering, into Stafford's power. "Prior claims vested interest, is it! Some of you will have to swallow those words before I'll be got to swallow anything here," swore Denis O'Hara, almost gayly, in the exaltation of his Celtic rage. "Sure, 'tis mad, ; I know' ye are, lepping mad, Sir Jas- i per, but ought you not to be ashamed of yourself before the lady? She's quivering with the fright. Lie here, my angel," said he, vibrating from the loudest note of defiance to the tendrest cooing. "Lie here; there's not a ha'porth to frighten ye were there fifty such twopenny old crazy weather cocks crowing at you!" - So saying, he deposited his burthen tenderly in the leather winged arm chair by the fireplace and turned with a buoyant step toward Sir Jasper. "Come out," said he, "come out, sir. "Sure, leave him alone, Tom, 'tis the only way to quiet him at all. Sure, after our little game the other night. .wasn't he that dovelike, poor fellow. a child might have milked -him?" The quivering form in the chair here emitted a scale of hysterical little notes that seemed wrung from her by the most irrepressible emotion. And "Oh, oh," exclaimed Mr. Stafford, unable, in the midst of his laughter, to retain any further grip upon his friend. "My darling," once more began the solicitous O'Hara, - turning his head round toward the armchair, but "Judas!" hissed Sir Jasper, and furi ously interposed his bulk between the Irishman and his Intention. "Faith," cried Stafford. "Can't you cover that head of yours somehow, "See what Jealousy may bring a man to!" O'Hara? I vow the very sight of it is still the red rag to the bull. The bull, aha!" "Ha, ha, ha!" broke, this time uncontrolled, the merriment from the chair. The three men were struck into silence and Immobility. Then, on tiptoe, Mr. Stafford approached and peeped round the wing of the armchair. He looked, and seemed blasted with astonishment looked again and made the rafters ring with his sonorous laugh till the apprehensive landlord in the passage and the trembling dame ? in the bar were comforted and reassured by the genial sound. .One hleh feminine trill of Mistress I

iviiiy s musical mirtn rang in sweetly

with his. "Oh, Kitty Bellairs, Kitty Bellairs!" gasped Mr. Stafford, shook his finger at her, felt blindly for a support, and rolled up against Sir Jasper. The baronet straightwav fell Into an opportunely adjacent chair and there remained his legs extended with compass stiffness, his eyes starting with truly bovine bewilderment staring at the rosy visage, the plump little fig ure that now emerged from the ingle nook. - "Mercy on us!" rippled the lady "I protest, 'tis the drollest scene. Oh bir Jasper, Sir Jasper, see what Jealousy may bring a man to!" "Musha, It's neither head nor tail I can make of the game," said O'Hara, "but sure it's like an angel choir to hear you laugh again, me darling." The guileless gentleman approached his mistress as he spoke and prepared to encircle her waist, but with a sudden sharpness she -whisked herself from his touch. "Pray, sir," she said, "remember how we stand to each other! If I laugh 'tis with relief to know myself safe." "Safe?" he echoed, with sudden awful misgiving. "Aye," said she, and spoke more tartly for the remorseful smiting of her own heart as she marked the chaage in his face. "You would seem to forget, sir, that you have carried me off by violence treacherously seized me with your hired ruffians." Her voice grew ever shriller as certain rumors which her expectant ears had already caught approaching now grew quite unmistakable without, and hasty steps resounded in the passage. "Oh, Mr. O'Hara, you have cruelly used me!" cried the lady. "Oh, Sir Jasper, oh, Mr. Stafford, from what a fate has your most unexpected presence here tonight thus opportunely saved me!" At this point she looked up and gave a scream of most intense astonishment, for there, in the doorway, stood my Lord Verney, and, over his shoulder, peered the white face of Captain Spicer all puckered up with curiosity. CHAPTER XXII. tss. i TIARA drew himself up. He II Bl had grown all. at once exceedllfl lngly still. I Mr. Stafford, gradually re covering from his paroxysms, had be gun to bestow some intelligent interest upon the scene. There was a mist of doubt in his eyes as he gazed from the victimized but very lively' lady to her crestfallen "violent abductor," and then to the gloomy countenance of the newcomer on the threshold. There seemed to be, it struck him, a prodi gious deliberation in Mistress Kitty's cry and start of surprise. "What is my pretty Bellairs up to now? Well, poor Irish Denis with all his wits is no match for her anyhow, and, faith, she knows it," thought he. Aloud he said, with great placidity. "Fie, fie; this is shocking to hear!" and sat, the good humored chorus to the comedy, on the edge of the table, waiting for the development of the next scene. . Sir Jasper, wiping a beaded brow and still staring, as if by the sheer fixing of his bloodshot eye he could turn these disappointing puppets into the proper objects of his vengeance, was quite unable to follow any current but the muddy whirl of his own thoughts. Lord Verney alone it was, therefore, who rose at all to Mistress Kitty's sit uation. "Are you the scoundrel, then," said he, marching upon O'Hara, "who dared to lay hands upon an unprotected lady in the very streets of Bath?" "Monstrous!" remarked Captain Spi cer behind him. Then jogging his patron's elbow, " 'Twas well spoke, Ver ney, 'man. At him again; there's blood in this." Mr. O'Hara looked steadily at Lord Verney, glancing contemptuously at Captain Spicer, and then with long, full searching at the beguiling widow. She thought to scent danger to herself in the air; and, womanlike, she seized unscrupulously upon the sharpest weapon in her armory. "Perhaps," she said, with an angry, scornful laugh, "Mr. O'Hara will now deny that he and his servants attacked my chairmen in the dark, threw me, screaming with terror, into his carriage, and that his intention was avowedly to wed me by force in London tomorrow." All eyes were fixed on the Irishman, and silence waited upon his reply. He had grown so pale that his red head seemed to flame by contrast. He made a low bow. "No, Kitty," said he in a very gentle voice, "I deny nothing." Then sweeping the company with a haughty glance, "This lady," said he, "has spoken truth; as for me, I am ready to meet the consequences of my conduct." His eyes finally rested once more on Lord Verney. The latter grew white and then scarlet, while Spicer whispered and again jogged. "Of course," blustered the youth, and wished that he had the curious digestion of his contemporaries, that his stomach did not so squeamishly rebel at the prospect of a dose of steel; "of course, sir, you must be aware" "It shall be swords," Interrupted the Irrepressible Spicer, "and, sir, what my noble friend will have left of your body I will myself make mince of this night! Aye, sir," said the captain, astonished at his own valor, slapping his bony chest and beginning to squint as was his wont under excitement, "I will fight you myself, sir!" "Fight you!" exclaimed O'Hara, sud denly stung Into magnificent contempt. "Fight you, sir" he ran a withering eye over the grasshopper anatomy of the toady as he spoke "you, sir, you, the writer of that dirty note this morning, bidding me apologize apologize!" cried Denis, with his most luscious brogue "to the man, Sir Jasper, there, for having insulted you on the subject of your miserable mealy headfight you, sir? Sure, rather than fight you," said Mr. O'Hara, searching for the most emphatic asseveration conceivable, "I'd never fight again for the rest of my life! But'I'il tell you what I'll do for you. Next time you thrust that ugly face of yours within the reach of me arm I'll pull your nose till it's as long as your tongue and as slender as yer courage!" . "Oh, what a low scoundrel !" murmured Captain Spicer, withdrawing cickir 5errsliacead with an in- j

But that her comedy should drift in , to tragedy was none of Mistress Kit ty's intentions. Briskly stepping be tweeu the laboriously pugnacious Ver ney and the poor Irishman, whose eyi (for all his present composure) shone with the Inst of the fray, she thus ad dressed them collectively and in turn "Shame, shame, gentlemen! I protest! Is it not enough that a poor woman's heart should be set a-fiutterin? by overmuch love? Must it now gc pitapat agaia for overmuch hate? My Lord Verney, think of your motherthink of her of whose declining yearsyou nre the sole prop and joy. He call to mind those principles of higi morality, of noble Christian duty which that paragon of women so sedu lously Inculcated in you!" Her voice quivered on the faintest note of mock ery. "Oh, what would that worthy lady's feelings be were you to b brought homo to her a corpse? What ah, what indeed, would your feeling: be if by some accidentV-here she sho involuntarily what was almost tin suspicion of a wink in the direction o4. O'Hara "you had to answer for the life of a fellow creature before to morrow's dawn? Why, you could nev er open your Bible again without feel ing in your bosom the throbbing heart of a Cain!" She stopped to drawbreath. Mr. Stafford, one delighted grin, slid the whole length of the table on which he sat with dangling legs to get n fuller view of the saucy face. "Incomparable Bellairs," he murmured to himself with keen appreciation, and "So. ho, my noble friend." thought he as he shot a glance at the solemn Verney. "now do I know what has closed to you forever the gates of paradise." "And yo-i, Mr. O'Hara," resumed the lady, turning her eye, full of indefinable and entrancing subtleties, upon the honest gentleman, "would you have me forgive you this night's work; Do not, then do not force this Impetuous young man to an unnecessary quarrel. Allow him to withdraw his challenge. Do that in atonement, sir," said she, with much severity of Accent, but her ey said sweetly enouja. ;'Do that for me," and gave further promise of unutterable reward. "Madam," said O'Hara, glancing away as if the sight of her beauty were now more pain than pleasure .to him, " 'tis for my Lord Verney . tc speak. I am entirely at his orders. 1 understand," and here, for all his chivalrousness, he could not refrain him from a point of satire "I understand, ma'am, that you have given him the right to espouse your quarrels." "Most certainly," said the crimsoD Verney, who had been monstrously uneasy during his lady's sermon, not only beeause every word of it hit some tender point of hia abnormally developed conscience, but, also because of an in: definable sensation that he was being held up to ridicule, "most certainly, sir, it is as Mistress Bellairs' future husband that I find it incumbent, that I find myself forced, reluctantly; no, I mean" Here he floundered and look ed round for Spicer, who, however, was ostentatiously turning his back upon the proceedings and gazing at the moon. "In fact," resumed the poor youth, falling back on his own unguided wits, "I have no alternative but to demand satisfaction for an outrage against the future Lady Verney." j "Mercy on us!" cried Mistress Kitty, with a shrill, indignant little scream. "Oh, fie, my lord, who would have deemed you so bloodthirsty? - Before heaven," she cried piously, glancing at the raftered ceiling, "before heaven, it would be the death of me were there to be quarreling, strife, contention for me for me! Who am I?" she said, with the most angelic humility, "that two -such gallant gentlemen should stake their lives for me? Rather," Baid she, "will I give you back your word, my lord. Indeed," this with a noble air of sacrifice, "I feel Providence has but too clearly shown me my duty. Hush, hush, Verney, bethink yourself. How could I ever face your mother (were you indeed to survive the encounter) with the knowledge that I had exposed yon to danger; that for me you had loaded your sonl with blood guiltiness!" She shuddered and looked delicious.

There was a convic tiou in her vo'ee that gave no hop of reprieve, and Lord Verney, wbi. had already found out that MistressBellairs was too dangerous a delight to pursue with comfort, accepted hia sentence with a Christian resignation that did justice to bis mother's train ing. "AH, all must now be over betwcei; us," said Kitty pathetically, "save ii gentle friendship! Your hand, my lord." She reached for his clumsy paw with her determined little fingers. "Mr. O'Hara," said she, turning round; "I forgive you. Your hand also, sir." If the clasp she extended to Verney was purely ofiicial, that with which she now seized O'Hara's cold right hand was eloquent enough with quick and secret pressure. But, for the first time in hi3 life, perhaps, O'Hara was slow in returning a woman's token. "Shake hands," ordered Mistress Bellairs decisively, and joined the belligerent's palms. Here Stafford sprang jovially to the assistance of the pretty peacemaker. "Right, right," cried he. "Shake hands on it like good fellows. Fie! Who could keep up a feud under those beaming eyes? Never be downcast, Verney, lad! What did I tell thee, only yesterday, in the pump room, about thy halo?
