Perhaps it might be well to say that when inauguration day falls on Sun- cay, the incoming president takes the oath on Saturday, March 8, but is not formally inducted into offiee until Mon- day, March 5. This is deme to prevent a lapse in the office, for the eutgomg president has no authority as such after 12 o’clock, noon, on March 4, whether that date fall on Sunday or om amy other day. If, therefore, occasiog should arias between noon on Sunday, March 4, aad noon on Monday, March 5, for the as- ervise of the presidential authority, the

incoming president, having taken the,

oath of office, would be qualified to per- form the duty. Such acase never hae arisen, but it might arise. —Philadel- phia Times.

Beecher’s Only Poem,

It was related by Mrs. Beecher that during theircourtship Mr. Beecher once ‘‘dropped into poetry’’ and wrote a few lines of verse teeming with affection for his sweetheart. But the verses were always kept sacred by Mrs. Beecher, and nothing could win them from her.

One day Mr. and Mrs. Beecher were in the office of Robert Bonner, the pub- lisher.

“Why don’t you write a poem, Beech- er?’’ said Mr. Bonner.

‘*He did onee,”? said Mrs. Beecher.

‘*Recite it for me, won’t you, Mrs, Beecher?’’ . ;

But the eyes of the great preacher were riveted on his wife, and she knew that he meant silence.

‘‘Come,’’ said Mr. Bonner, “‘I’ll give yoa $5,000 if you will recite that poem to me,’’ addressing Mrs. Beecher.

‘‘Why, it ran’’— quickly said Mra Beecher.

*‘Eunice,’’? simply said Mr, Beecher.

And although Robert Bonner offered to double the sum first offered he never got the poem from Mrs. Beecher.: It bad been hidden away ever since by Mrs, Beecher and cherished as one of the dear- est treasures her husband left her. —Bos- ton Globe.

Tumneling the Strait of Messina.

Engineering achievements and possi- bilities, from the modern point of view, are receiving an additional illustration in the case of the projected tunnel be- tween the mainland of Italy and the is- land of Sicily, plans and details of which, in model, as executed by the italian civil engineer De Johannis, have attracted much attention at the University of Padua. After thorough and careful atudies of the »trait of Mes- sina, ites varying deo the nature ef the ground and of all other conditions which might aseist or interfere with such an undertaking, De Johbannis de- cided that the beginning of the tunnel should be near San Giovanni di Sani- tello, at the foot of the Aspromonte mountain range, the month on the oth- er side to be located on the degli Ingle- si plain. The entire tunnel will be near- ly two miles long and will consist in the main of two shafts of about 10,000 feet each, descending at a grade not ex- teeding 32 feet in each 1,000. Such a tunnel is thought preferable to a bridge that would involve such a great span and wind exposure.—Harper’s Round Table.

Maryland Rice and Tobacco,

According to the Baltimore News, the farmers of Maryland are becoming in- terested in the movement for a general zultivation of tobacco and for the intro- duction of the raising of rice. Jn earlier days tobacco was grown throughout the state, but for the last half century it has been confined to the counties of southern Maryland. Rice has never been grown in the state, but the recent snc- cess With this crop in lower New Jersey bas led many to think that it can be profitably taken up in Delaware and Maryland. The yield of rice is from 35 to 60 bushels an acre, and the net profit is said to be from $25 to $45 an acre,
