Wil- Hams demanded ~ $3,000 damages. Thakombau. king«afMfee F$a, refused to pa^f. ^illiams wrote to Washington about tine matter, and his losses, with delays, grew until $45,000 was demanded. Thakombau had no means of paying such a sum. His subjects had no money --needed none, as food grew wild on the trees, and houses cost nothing to build. Australian money-lenders offered to settle the claim for 200,000 acres of the best land. The king accepted. Here was a chance for a stroke of bold American diplomacy, but for some reason it did hot materialize. Uncle Sam might have had the islands outright for the debt. When the news cf the Australian offer reached England that government would not permit the consummation of the transaction. In a moment of fear and excitement Thakombau agreed to cede the islands to. Great Britain if that country would pay, the debt. At first the British declined, but finally relented, annexing the Fijian domain. : It seems that Williams finally wearied of trying to collect his claim, and So the money never was Human Alarm Clock • Wakaw Whole Town Baxter, Tenn.--In this mountain town of 000 inhabitants there's onlyone alarm clock.

Feltz went to Chicago ter street, vacated by Mr. and Mrs. Iliwuippi'i Mouth Sea Level; Sourca Above According to Stimpson's "Popular Questions Answered," there are certain small streams which occasionally reverse the direction of their currents. One example is given, the river Crossing, a small stream in Penobscot county, Maine; this stream sometimes flows south and sometimes north, depending on the flood conditions in the Soudabscoot and Kenduskeag rivers which it connects. The same authority deals with the common belief that the Casiquiare river in Venezuela sometimes reverses the current direction, but this is stated to be incorrect. The question is often asked with regard to the Mississippi, the idea being that because the earth bulges at the center and is flattened toward the poles, the mouth of that river is about four miles farther than its source from the center of the earth. In measuring elevations, however* all of these are referred to sea level, not to the earth's center. , Surface measurements have shown the Mississippi's source to be several hundred feet above sea level, while its mouth is at saa level. 1 coast of South America, a catamaran is a kind of raft or float, consisting of two or more logs or pieces of wood lashed together and moved by paddles or sails. Captain Sallsten's craft 'differs in that ft consists of three canoes lashed side by side. Covered with copper and the tops decked over with ply-wood, the two outside canoes are sixteen feet long, and the middle one twenty-five feet. The middle canoe has a tiny cabineight feet long, forty-one inches, wide and twenty-four inches highjust enough room for Captain Sallsten to lie down in. The craft will carry 350 square feet of sail. "With this," said Captain Sallsten, "in a good stiff bracer, she should make twenty knots." Where there isn't a "good stiff bracer" and when it does not ?eem absolutely futile, he will skull his craft, wiggling an oar much in the manner of-a gondolier. So. confident is he of his venture that he is not even taking a life preserver. Captain Sallsten will have only a couple of books, a violin, a mouthorgan and a toy monkey mascot to amuse himself while tossing alone on the seas. Meaning of "Public Schools are not "public" in the sense that they are open to the public, says London Answers Magazine. They may take a certain number of "scholarship" pupils and so qualify for a grant from the state, but they are usually endowed with private funds.
