The system ofelectric lighting -is controlled fromthe basement, and throughout thebuilding the lamps themselves areevery where arranged with great careand forethought. In the diningrooms, for instance, they are placedvery high up, so that while the sup-ply of light is ample there is noglare over the tables. In the tea-~rooms, besides the lights from theceiling, there are wall brackets overthe tables and even movable tablelamps for those who care to useservice room adjoining the commons dining room all the fittingsare made of iron, rather than ofbrass, so that they may suffer as Jittle as possible from the steam.With a staff of about 50 men thesuperintendent is able to. make allsorts of ingenious and pretty fit.~tings. And, as anothor specimenTofthe economy which is. everywherevisible, it may be mentioned that hehas succeeded in making many pretty electroliers out of the old gas fittings. The big electroliers"notablythat in the central hall, whichwoighs 18 hundredweight and bears93 lamps"and the smaller ones inthe peersT chamber, St. StephenTshall and elsewhere are made to beraised and lowered for purposes ofcleaning: or.T of. replacing . ~brokenlamps.

Had it been asand bank I couldhave understood it, but it was composedof pebbles, aM very mueh alike, rounded |and smooth almost to a size, and appar-ently differing from the small stonesfound in the gravel beds of the south.Several of the hunters in that sectionhad seen the pebble beach and, like my-self, they could not understand it, Allwinter long it seemed fresher than atother times, and during the summerthe grass would kinder cover its upperportion and the mud from the freshwater dim the luster of the stones nearlike it in the marsh.oOne winter, in fact, it was just whenthe first cold spell had struck us, I washunting with a friend in the lake I.spoke of. It was one of the finest duck-ing spots in the state. This was beforethey had begun to make.giue from theeggs in Canada. When we reached thelake there was not a duck to be seen.The next morning I was hiding in thegrass near the pebble beach when Iheard a sound of wings and a large fiockof mallard settled near me. Before Icould raise my gun the entire lot walkedout on the pebble bank, and to my aston-ishment, began to disgorge a lot ofsmall stones like the ones already there.This occupied but a short time, and theflock began quacking and sailed into thelake, and I shot several. This settledthe mystery ofthe pebble beach. Inthe spring I was again hunting in thelake. When the first warm ~weather camethe ducks began to go home.would come. to the beach, and after afew preliminaries swallow a lot of peb-bles, then fly around for a minute inorder to see if their balance was allright. If they were too heavy theywould disgorge a few stones, or, if toolight swallow a half-dozen more,oIT found by observation that in orderfor the ducks to. make long flights itwas necessary for them to fill up witha certain number of stones to secure aproper equilibrium for the return trip.After I found this out [ always hadplenty of game to show my friends.�"N. QO. 'Times-Demoerat.eeeSailing Round the World Alone.Capt. Joshua Slocum, who sailedfrom East Boston nearly a year ago tocircumnavigate the globe in his 40-footsloop Spray, has been heard from asbeing at Sandy Point, in the Straits ofMagellan, on February 16, His originalintention was to make the trip to thewestward by the way of the Isthmus ofPanama, but. finding that it would beimpossible to transport his vessel acrossthe isthmus, he determined to make thejourney by sailingT east.
