They were i- ciently serious, however, although t number was not availal wher the storm was worst merely stated that “many were injured” or “num- bers were injured.” The damage (o property was great but there was no big outstanding di The forecast for toduy did not en- courage hope of immediate iniprove- ment and the public was told to look | for more fury from the gale. ’ There was considerable doubt as 1o the fate of the 1,700 ton steamer Arnabel-Mcndi of Bilboa, Spain.

The | Mountaineers have dropped two de- cisions this year, one to Davis and Elkins and the other to George- town, but their victims have includ- ed such aggregations as Pitt, Lafay- ette, Washington and Lee and Fordham.

Recently returned from a pil- grimage to the island Ernest 4'Hau- French writer, made the discoveries which have caused consternation in Irance at the moment when a Napoleon vogue is sweeping the country, as reflected in the production of four Napolconic plays simultaneously in Paris thea- ters, The first surprise which con- | fronted the pilgrim when he t | eves on the house in which the Em- peror spent five and a half years before his death was the discovery that the annex in which the com- panions of the cxile lived no longer cxists, “Otherwise the aspect wood is much the same as form 1y, writes d’Hauterive, “and this is true of the interior as well exterior of the building, which is in Not long ago there was a fear that damages worked to in- crease, but this is not so, although there are minor repairs which are of TLong- Cake.

Chock=full of **Youth U'niis* required.” In the salon, empty of furniture like the hall, the visitor found a white marble bust of the Emperor reposing on a small table placed at the spot where Napoleon's bed stood at the time of his death on May §, 1821, In is almost the bedroom the furniture unchanger, remaining much as it was just over a century ago. There the exile used to pass five and six days at a time pacing the 15 foot square chamber, when 1 was there, but normally he mediately to be brought to reality when his gaze would fall upon the distant | camp on the plateau of Deadwood | where British sentries kept constant | watch. “The past is evoked with poign- ant intensity,” the pilgrim records, and that is why one is stupefied and |indignant when one learns that in ordinary times these apartments of the Emperor are occupied by the | caretaker. He was on holiday inhabits all the sacred rooms. It is as if the caretaker, at Versailles slept in Louis XVI's room. The result is that visitors at 8t. Helena usually see only the hall and the salon of the house. Longwood is no longer the home of the Emperor, but that of the coretaker.” The explanation of this state of affairs is that there is no other available accommodation for the caretaker on the island. d'Hauter- ive urges that steps be taken im- to remedy this lack, preferably by reconstructing - the annex so that visitors can have free access to all the rooms at Long- | wood and by making the compari- | son between the miserable lodgment and the splendid palaces of other times, understand better what Na~ i poleon must have suffered. Proposed drainage of the Zuider Zee in Holland is expected to not only reclaim 500,000 acres it covers, but also to prevent the continued salting of the fresh water channels.
