THE SEA OF LOT.
t Ridge of Sodom and Its Fetid but
Clear Blue Waters.
It is In the southeastern part of
Palestine where the famous Dead sea
lies. In the Old Testament It was
known as the Sea of the Plain or Salt
sea. but It Is known today by the
Arabs as the Sen of Lot Its surface,
which Is lower than nny other body of
water, Is 1,202 feet below the level of
the Mediterranean.
The Dend sen is fed by the river
Jordan from the north, but has no
outlet, depending entirely upon evapo
ration. A portion of the sea Is sur
rounded by cliffs which are destitute
of vegetation. On the south shore Is
the ridge of rock snlt seven miles long
and 300 feet high, known as the ridge
of Sodom. Lava beds, sulphur and vol
canic slag prove the existence of vol
canic agencies at some period. The
lake still casts up pieces of asphalt
when the environs of the Dead sea are
visited by earthquake.
Its proportion of saline matter Is
so great that It contains more than
eight times as much as the ocean, and,
while It Is exceedingly fetid, yet Its
water Is as blue as that of the Mediter
ranean, and to the bather It Is very
refreshing, and owing to Its specific '
gravity It Is difficult to sink. Nothing j
living exists within the waters of the ;
Dend sea. Buffalo Express.
JOHN STOWE'S REWARD.
The Beggar Historian Got Royal Per
mission to Solicit Alms.
James I. on March 8. 1(03. granted
letters patent under the great seal to
John Stowe, London's great historian,
authorizing him to beg. The letters
patent of James I. authorized Stowe to
collect the voluntary contributions of
the people. The letter recites that:
"Wherens, Our loving subject. John
Stowe, a very aged and worthy mem
ber of our city of London, this five and
forty years hath to his great charge
and with neglect of his ordinary means
of maintenance, for the general good as
well of posterity as of the present age,
compiled and published diverse neces
sary books and chronicles, and there
fore we. In recompense of his labors
and for the encouragement to the like,
have In our royal Inclination been
pleased to grant letters patent under
our great seal of England, dated
March 8, lt!03, thereby authorizing hltn
to collect among our loving subjects
their voluntary contributions and kind
gratuities."
John Stowe died on April 5, 1005, and
was burled in the parish Church of St.
Andrew Undersbnft, where his monu
ment, erected by his widow, Is still to

A Journalist Bought Suez.
The Journalist is often the man be

the credit. Who was It that Induced
Mr. Disraeli to buy the Suez canal
shares which have proved so abundant
ly good an investment, with dividends
that are represented not only by
money, though even from that point of
view It Is the best Investment that a
state has ever made? Fleet street

Frederick Greenwood both for that
reason and for many another. Hut
how many outside the world of Jour

Discordant Thoughts.
In wandering through your mental
pleasure grounds, whenever you come
upon an ugly Intruder of n thought
which might bloom Into some poison
ous emotion, such as fear, envy, bate,
worry, remorse, anger and the like,
there Is only one right way to treat It,
writes Robert II. Schaulller In the At
lantic. Pull it up like a weed, drop it
upon the rubbish heap as promptly as
If It wero a stinging nettle and let
some harmonious thought grow In Its
place. There Is no more reckless con
sumer of all kinds of exuberance than
the discordant thought, and weeding It
out saves such an astonishing amount
of eau Je vie wherewith to water the
garden of Joy that with It In band
every man may be bis own Burbauk.

"If you are Innocent," said a lawyer

"At what time was the ham stolen?"

THE MENACING SEA
It Threatens to Some Day Engulf
New York and Boston.
OUR EASTERN COAST SINKING.
In Time, Thousands of Years, Per
haps, the Atlantic Ocean, According
to Geologist!, Will Flow Over the
Cities That Now Tower Above Its
Shores.
Government geologlcnl experts have
calculated that New York, Boston,
Philadelphia nnd all the other cities
along the Atlantic coast will eventual
ly sink beneath the ocenn. They have
observed that there has been n steady
sinking of the whole coast, and they
say that it Is going on nt the present
moment
Geologists bnve long recognized the
fact that the Atlantic coast line was
much farther out than It Is now. There
is a line from 100 to 300 miles off the
present coast at which the water sud
denly gets deeper. Out to that distance
the water Is generally about 300 feet
deep. Then It plunges suddenly and
becomes ten times as far to the ocean's
bottom. The men of the coast survey
have traced this line throughout the
length of our coast line and find It
similar nil along. The geologists say
that the continent once reached out
that far and that there was the coast
line, but n gradual decline through the
ages has caused that line to retreat,
until now It Is where we know It.
From a geological standpoint this
has happened In comparatively recent
times. It has nil been done since the
glacial period. This brings it into the
present period nnd makes the action
new. In fact It Is positively known to
be going on now.
There Is an ancient sill in the Charles
town navy yard at Boston with re
gard to which there is definite informa
tion as to Its elevation. It was put
in place seventy years ago; Its eleva
tion was given with relation to mean,
high and low tide, and also with refer
ence to surrounding landmarks. With
relation to the tldo this sill has sunk
seven-tenths of n foot. With relation
to the landmarks It has the same posi
tion, a positive proof that Boston har
bor and the city about It have sunk
seven-tenths of a foot Into the sea In
the last seventy years.
The original mouth of the Hudson
river Is now 200 miles out to seu. The
ships follow its old channel in leaving
port even now. It is not known how
long ago It was when the mouth of the
river was not far out In the ocean. But
It Is almost a certainty that when a
similar time has elapsed the present
city will be an equal distance from the
then laud.
Similarly will Boston be submerged.
Baltimore will disappear nt about the
same time and great portions of Wash
ington. The great Mississippi is bring
ing down great deposits to raise Its
delta and counterbalance the decline.
So low is New Orleans that it will be
one of the first cities to sink below the
sea level and be n municipality high
walled against the enemy, the sen. Gal
veston has already felt the encronch
ment of the waters and has been forced
to build Itself n sea wall.
The geological survey makes topo
graphical mnps. On these lines are run
nt given elevations. For instance, a
line may be run about Manhattan Is
land nt a level twenty feet above the
water at the Battery. It would sub
merge the customs house nnd extend up
Broadway nearly to Wall street. From
the east It would Invade the financial
district almost to Nassau street. It
would overflow half the land between
the city hall and the East river. Far
ther up it would submerge a narrower
Btrlp, but its intrusion would create
great havoc.
A fifty foot rise of water would wipe
Manhattan Island out entirely. Of
course. If these depressions came on
very gradually the water fronts would
be diked against their Intrusions. In
this way New York city might be saved
from destruction for a very long time.
It will inevitably become a city sur
rounded by a high levee, against which
the ocean will beat with an ever In
creasing advantage. It might perpetu
ate itself by artificial means, but in the
end it will be put in an impossible posi
tion. The waters will follow over the
flats of New Jersey and of Long Island.
They will even beat back through
the Delaware and the Chesapeake and
get beyond the city nnd cut off com
munication with the main part of the
land. Finally, New York will find lt
self a city down In a well far out from
the am inland. Gradually the people
who dwell in it will desert it and re
pair to the then mainland. The waters
will eventually lap away the great
walls that have been built to keep out
the sea and will tumble In among the
skyscrapers. W. A. Du Puy's "Uncle
Sam, Wonder Worker."
Pretence of Mind.
Only the other day a great steel
beam was being brought up to a giddy
height by hoisting apparatus. As It
passed a girder on which several men
were at work the beam turned Just
enough to push one of them off, says
Harper's Weekly. The man seized the
beam and was swung far over the
street. Ills weight gradually moved
down the end of the girder to which
he clung, and In a few moments he
would bnve been thrown off, when a
fellow workman sprang for the other
end. thus balancing It, and together
tbey were lowered to the ground.

Honolulu In 1917 or 1918. He wants
exhibits of industries for a prelimin
ary commercial museum which he is
now busy preparing, and he would
like to hear from anybody on the
matter. He says: .
"Mesrs. Castle and Cooke have been
