Splendid fcssils were discovered the other day during sinking opera tions for two new coal pits at Old Cumnock, Scotland. At about 50 fathoms deep a flower period was passed through, well defined fossils of tree branches, fern3, flowers, seeds, and seedpods being found. The most Interesting discoveries were evidently of a much earlier period, because these were found at a depth of 78 fathoms. This has evidently been a marine period, the fossils including several well defined shellfish, some of good size, embedded In the ironstone. Two 'most important finds are those of animals. One. In a very complete condition, resembles part of a seal or sea lion. The other splendid fossil resembles a turtle.

Cruelty to Congressmen, The scheme to brin: the "Congres sional lieeord" into accordance with fact is oie of the njost rsdicul and personally oppressive proposals now before congress. For many years American statesmen have disported in the columns of the Record with unlimited freedom astotlme. Speed us have poured forth without the pogsl hility of Interruption hy impertinent fellow members and- far bevond the sound of the gravel or the speaker, It is true these speeches have never been spoken. They are not prepared for the body to which the? are sup posed to have been spoken. The audience they reach lie, in some cases, three thousand' miles from Washington, and vet the Innocent constituent reads tlie glowing period--of his congressman In the pages of the Congressional Itecord, and imagine the house sitting spellbound as he weaves the magic of his oratory about them. JJy a further and per haps inevitable exlention of the vision these socalled speeches have been punctuated at proper points by such words as "great laughter" or "great applause." This laughtrr and applause are, like tjie speeches them selves, wholly Imaginary. In fact, Represent ai I ve Mann, the leader of the republican minority in the house of representatives, has given notif.e that If he found any member abusing the priviledge of "leave in print" by recording such phrases as "great ap plause" or "great laughter" In brackets In an undelivered speech he would say some Impolite things pub licly in regard to the genulness or the laughter and applause. In sheer brutality of disillusion, Mann's pro o n goes quite beyond tlje limit. It destroys one of thp higher resources of the newly eleotcd representative, lie will no longer be ablp to preate for liimself in the silepce of his own committee room or of his apartment in a Washington boarding hopsc, a reputation for moving eloquence.

He illustrates this h,y the fact that the tip of an electric arc carbon will mark paper after it has been used In a lamp, but no befor;.

While workmen were excavating about ten feet below the surface for the foundation of a new wall In a Lon don street the other day they came upon some pieces of pottery, which the foreman, who has had experience of similar finds. Immediately recog nized as of the Roman period.

There were some hair dozen heads rf urns, a bull's horn, some handles or urns, and a large Roman tile. London Mall. Electricity's Vast Growth. The total investment in electric , light plants in thp United States is now more than two billion dollars, accord ing to reports presented to the Na tional Electric Light association. The report covers practically 6,000 stations, having an estimated total horse power capacity or more than 7.000.000 and kilowatt capacity or 5.000.000. The op erating companies have a total capital--fzatlon or $2,400,000,000, and an annual Income of $300,000,000. The Real Feelini,.

Just as we had finished refreshing ou-selves. sa. the Cleveland Plain Dealer. "Yes. I do," we answered defiantly. We mopped our perspiring fate as we spoke and attempted to pull our wiV-" collar to gether In front for dignity's sake. "And aren't you afraid of those mi crobes In the ice waer?" "No, sir we are Jealous of them." Once Was Enough. Dr. Tophara is a surgeon at the Cen tral Emergency hospital. It wasn't his fault, but when the reported wrote his story of the accident he wrote too much and the copy readers had to cut It down to space requirements at the office. So that is how It happened that this appeared: "The man was treated by Dr. Topham and the body removed to the morgue." San Francisco Chron icle. Preserving the Lakes. , In southern California they create artificial lakes by running water from ap, irrigating ditch into a depression, says the Outing Magazine. These lakes don't amount to much, but they are all they have. Not long since a tourist ap proached a man engaged in building a high board fence about one or these ponds. "What's that rence Tor?" ho asked or the workman. "Oh, that so some or you tourists won't come along with a sponge and wipe this thing dry," was the response." Commemorates Women's Victory.

A notable salvage feat was accom-' pllshed at Queenstown harbor the oth er day when the huge Cunard liner Ivernla, which struck on a submerged reef at Daunt's Rock, Queenstown, was refloated. The Ivernla Is a 14.000 ton ship, 532 feet long, and her sal vage was no easy matter After she was beached In the harbor many of her compartments were flooded, and at high tide" there were six feet of water on her deck forward. The weight of the great ship carried her down Into the sand until some of the torn plating was burled. While the divers were working on the Ivernia they found some timbers of a ship embedded in the damaged plating. The Ivernla must have "struck the rocks at a point where some wooden ves sel was wrecked years ago. The world dosen't care If a nun Is short on brains provided lie is long on money. An Alpine Garden.

We find the following tolerably clev er description or love in an o d mag azine. "Love is like the devil, be cause It torments us. like heaven, be cause It wraps the soul In Iblss; like' pepper, because it often sets one on fire; like sugar, because it Is sweet: like a rope, because It is often the death or a man; like a prison, be cause it makes one miserable: like wine, because It makes ua happy; like a man, because it U here today and gone tomorrow; like a woman, be cause there is no getting rid or It; like a beacon, because It guides one to the wlshed-ror port; like a willo'-th'-wisp. because it often runs away with, one; like a little pony, because It ambles nicely with one: like the bite or a mad dog or the kiss or u pret ty woman, because they both make a man run mad; like a goose because it is silly; like a rabbit, because there Is nothing like it. In a word, it is like a ghost, because it is like everything and like nothing orten talked about, but never seen, touched or under stpod."
