von Bsthmann-Hollweg's position .is badly shaken is the only possible ver- dict on yesterday's debate in the Rei on treaties, four leading parties, Conservatives, Clericals, Liberals and Socialists, suc- | cessively attacked his arguments and vied with each other in criticizing the he dubate called harp ebate ca out many sl attacks upon Which were greeted with applause by the House and galleries. The chief attack was made by Herr Von Heydebrand and wag astonishingly bellicose. .. Referring to Chancellor Lloyd: Denrat's well-temembered epeech, he said that Germany now knows where to find the enemy. "Germans," he continued, "ard not accustomed to' submit to such thipgs. The German people will give a han answer to this English question he Government will know what an wer to give them when the hour comes. en it comes it is for the Government to say, bu its duty is to decide for the honor of the German nation. We Germans will be ready to make whatever sacrifices are ne- lcessary." (Long and continued ap- |plauge.) | The president of the chamber had to beg the members to restrain their 'demonstrations. The speaker went on: "I can declare in~behalf of all my ipolitical friends that we are ready {When honor requires to make sacrifices t only of blood, but of treasure. We are ready to make such sacrifices Whenever demanded." Road 8lid Into Lake. Chatham, Ont, Nov. 10.--Alex. Chaplin, who secyred leases from the Government to drill for oil and gas under the waters of Lake Erie, no sooner commenced the sinking of his first well than an injunction was is- Gas from Carr. The Volcanic Company ls an oil trust that practically now con- trols the Tilbury field. The plaintiffs claim that Chaplin is trespassing on Carr's property and make a novel plea to prove their iclaim. They assert that the southern {boundary of Carr's lot is eeveral rods 1out in the lake and the crown patent 130 Carr's predecessor in the title | granted land to the northwest limit of ! the old Talbot road, laid out about a century ago. | { The original Talbot road has long ! since washed into the lake, along with {several rods of the original township Tot, but Carr claims that this does not affect his boundary lines. As all the other farmers along the « lake shore are in a similar position Chaplin finds himself in a peculiar osition, and until the courts settle ie farmer's rights in the matter his scheme fo drill under the waters of Lake Erie will have to be abandoned. . .

The instrumnet of dispatch is call- ed the "talking newspaper," and it is neither a public Fogus h nor a news sheet hurriedly distributed. It is a sort of telephonic news service, and is the only thing of its kind in the world. orking in commection with the associated newspapers of the city, a central office has heen estab- lished, which is the core of the cur- fous system. At the first hint of news Semin In over the telephone instru- ment any or all of the newspaper offices, this central telephone office is called, and whatever the news is, from for 3 feat, the bureau is advised of it The bureau agent then rings his signal and this signal calls to his special news telephone at the same in- stant every subscriber in Budapest. After a reasonably long interval, long enough to allow subscribers to get to their receivers, the despatch is slowl: and distinctly read at the central of- fice and subscribers all over the city stand listening to the same voice. After the news is read it is once re- peated for the benefit of those who may not have clearly understood the first time or who may have been de- layed in answering the signal. In order to have this service install- ed in the house one has to be in the first place a subscriber to a news- paper. Upon showing his subseri tion-receipt he may, at a small addi- tional cost, have the news-telephone put in. This instrument is composed merely of a pair of receivers and a call-bell.

Still Unmarried. "Our likes and dislikes are guided by the personal equation--whatever that is," commented the bachelor. "Indeed?" queried the suffragette. "Yes; the property we buy at a real estate forced sale is always the high- est and driest, while fhe other fellow's property, we are willing to swear, is under water." "Are you getting ready to argue?" "No, I'm still unmarried. But wanted to show how different we all feel about ourselves and our property from other people and their property.

"A boy or a girl?" asked the suffra- ette, revealing a spark of woman- ood; then she added, quickly, "but never mind; it will be a voter, any- way, some day." 'On the floor below us is another baby," went on the bachelor. 'The other day the quiet of the house was disturbed by lusty yelling. '" 'Is that our little cherub crying?' asked the mother. '" 'No,' the father answered; "it's the brat downstairs'." Clay Eaters In Africa. In the colony of Upper Senegal and Niger, near a place named Diekuny, exists an edible clay of which the natives are very fond. It is found in a layer between strata of limestone, and a gallery has been driven into the. earth for the extraction of the substance. It is not only eaten on the epot, but, broken into pieces a few inches across, is sold to the in- habitants of the surrounding country over a radius of some twenty miles. It is said by French explorers that ome natives consume several po of this strange food every da; similar custom is found in dan' in other parts 'of Africa. A Good Fellow.
