He Was kept in solitary confinement for thirty-three years, and when death at last released him from this living tomb the following researches, taken from the Bible and marked with an old nail on the walls of tue cell, told bow his brain sought employment "urough the weary years: in the Bible the word 'lord' is | found 1,853 times, the word 'Jeho- vah' 4.855 times, and the word 'rev- { erend' but once and that in the ninth verse, One Hundred and Elev- eath Psalm The eighth verse of the One Hundred and ' Seventeenth Psalm is the middle verse of the Bi- ble. The ninth verse of the eighth chapter of Esther is the longest verse | and the thirty-fifth verse of the elev- enth chapter of St. John is-the short- est. In the One Hundred and Sixth Psalm four verses are alike -- the eighth, fifteenth, twenty-first, and | thirty-first. Each verse of the One { Hundred and Thirty-sixth Psalm | ends alike "No names or words with more han six syllables are found in the | Bible. The thirty-seventh chapter of Isaiah and nineteenth chapter of | lI. Kings are alike. The word 'girl" occurs but once in the Bible and that | in the third verse and third chapter of Joel. There are found im both books of the Bible 3,686,483 letters 773.692 words, 21,373 verses, 1,139 chapters, and 66 books. The twenty- | sixth chapter of the Acts of the | Apostles is the finest, fo read. The most beautiful chapter in the Bible is the Twenty-third Psalm. "The four inspiring prom ises are: John, sixteenth chapter and second verse; John, sixth chap ter and thirty-seventh verse, St Matthew, eleventh chapter and twenty-eighth verse, and the Thirty- seventh Psalm, fourth verse. The first verse of the rixtieth chapter of Isaiah is one for the new convert. All should read the sixth chapter of Matthew.

The Russian Sikorsky bipMne is the largest heavier-than-air machine yet invented It has a wing-surface at least five times greater than that of the commodious Farman biplane, Its steel frame is twenty-two yards long. Its dead weight is over three and a balf toms, and it can carry a 'useful load" of over a ton. At least a quarter of a ton would consist of explosives. Nearly half a ton of fuel and oil is carried. The space between the planes is nine feet deep. The forepart of the machine consists of steel-walled cabins, extending over a length of about thirty feet. These cabins have large windows on each side, like those of an omnibus. The cabins are electrically lit at night. In cold weather they are heated through the exhaust, » Utah's Organ Rock. Utah is a veritable curiosity shop, for it contains two national monu- ments, prehistoric cave dwellings, Great Salt lake, and Organ rock.: Organ rock is 400 feet high. It]is fluted like an organ and stands in south-eastern Utah. No one knows how long it has stood there solitary and alone, but every one. who has had the good fcrtune to §éé it hopes that it will always remain intact and that its fluted column may never be injured. or broken. Few natural phenomena are more symmetrically shaped and few resemble more fore- ibly some well known object. Time and elements havd® chiseleu it to perfection, -- A Huge Dam. The gigantic storage wall, khown as the-Burrinjuck dam---the most ir teresting part of the New South Wales irrigation scheme--ranks as one of the greatest dams in the world, both in regard to height and volume of water impounded. It is 236 feet high, 168 feet thick at the base, tapering to 18 feet at the top, and some 780 feet in length. The famous dam at Assouan, on the Nile, has but a total height of 156 feet. This colossal cement structure had to be built across the bed of a Fiver subjected to floods, in a deep gorge whose sides were seo steep that it was impossible to establish work- shops upon them.
