Backed Ilim Out of the House “‘ith an Empty Revolver. Prof. Kovaevsky, the C7.an principal body physician, was the hero of a start- ling and curious adventure a few days ago at Kislovodsk. Russia, where he is spending his holiday. He was sitting in the study waiting for visitors when a strange man entered and presented him with a paper which made a peremptory demand for 30,000 roubles. The profes- sor handed the paper back, Saying that even had he the money he would not give it to such a scoundrel. “We shall see about that,” said the robber. coolly, as he leveled a revolver at the professor‘s head. “Shall we ?" replied the professor, drawing his pistol in turn. So the pair stood for at least two min- utes. Then the robber slowly lowered his gun, smiled. and said graciously: “1’11 do you no harm,” as he backed out of the room and the house. “But,” asked a friend to whom the professor was relating the story, “why div: you not accompany him to the door and give the alarm 1’” "I would probably have done so," he replied. nonchalantly, “had my revol- ver been loaded.” ___.x.__.__ ORGANIST‘S TRIBUTE TO ZAM-BUK.

Ithode Island Professor Says It Is Also Inhabiled Inside. Dr. Orville Livingston Leach. scien- tist and investigator, of Auburn, ltliodc Island. says the earth is hollow. To get to this place. which is a land of great beauty, you have but to sail to one or the other of the poles. and quite without knowing it. your ship may go into an opening as if into a gaslight. globe and come upon a convex land. Once there it maybe that you'll never come back. The professor doesn't say much about that. Arctic explorers who have never rc- tin‘ned from the land of ice, lllil)'lltlp, are now sailing around in the sea that lines the inner side of the earth. They may have found a port and dropped anchor and gone ashore. “The possibilities of a land inside the er.th was first brought to my attention when I picked up a grade on the shores of the great lakes. The geodc is a spher- ical and apparently solid stone, but when broken is found to be hollow and coated with crystals. The earth is only a larger form of a geode and the law‘- that created the. geodc in its hollow term, inidoiibtedly fashioned the earth in the same way. “hr.

American Postal Official Regards Iloly- Iiead as Best Port in United Kingdom. In the race with the mails across the Atlantic, in the present age of rush, every second saved is precious. and ocean post-«itilecs are the very latest time-saving device. Special offices have now been estab- lished on many steamers. where marine postal clerks sort the mail at sea. and have it ready immediately on the ar- rnal of the boat. This saves from twenty-four to fortyeight hours’ work for the clerks ashore. The whole question of accelerating ll-e mail services on the liners is now being carefully considered by the inter- national postal authorities. J. T. .\fct‘.leary. an assistant post- master of the United States. has just r(turncd to New York after a round trip to England and back on the \\'hilo Star liner ficltic. and has ieported (II It ~2 working of the new system. In his rciiort- just. issued. Mr. Mc- flieary expresses his opinion that IIon- head is the best English port for ocean postomces to touch. as he considers it to be the best distribution point in this country. QUEENSTOVVN'S FATE. This decision, if acted on, will spell the doom of Queenstown as the mail port of call. and put Plymouth also out cf the running in the mail race of the future. \\‘hen the Atlantic boats were slower and the mails smaller the, disembarking of the American mails at. Quecnstown accelerated their delivery throughout the United Kingdom. Now. however, *t is found that the time spent in six bandlings of the letters. between Queensâ€" !mvu and London is so great that no- thing is saved by using the old port. It is quite common now for vessels which have dropped American mails at Queenstown to come up to the Channel past Holyhead an hour or two before the mails~which have been travelling across Ireland by train and the chau- nc' by fast boatâ€"have arrived. Mr. McCleary estimates that if the mail steamers passed Queenstown and went direct to Ifolyhead with the bags it would improve the present time by at least six hours. On the outward journey a steamer leaving Liverpool has to wait a con- siderable time at. Queenstown for the extra mails, and this unduly lengthens the lell'lIC)’. The Cunard Line intends to make an .‘u‘crcsfing experiment this month. They will run one boat direct from Liverpool to New York, and she will le followed by a sister ship of similar speeJ, which will pick up the mails at Queenstown and show the exact loss of time entailed. TIME LOST. The landing of the eastbound mails at I’liymoiith instead of Queenstown or Liverpool suits London, but it means a considerable loss of time in delivery in other parts of the Kingdom. Ireland and North Scotland being the chief sufferers. The only lines which at present run ecean ,postofl‘iecs are the White Star, the North German Lloyd and the Ham- Lurg-American. .\Ir. McCleai-y hopes to have the ex- periment tried on as many vessels as possible. A sum of 8125.000 has been devoted by the United States Government to the ocean postoch scheme for experi- mental purposes. and the time already saved has aSsured the success of the innovation. “*â€" BRIIIEIIY AN INSI'LT.
