' Hot Lake's overhead 1ms been cnile1ed fur several days and that $75,000 bridge across the railroad track is HOW in use. ' ' It is amusing to hear the remarks or people who cross the expensive piece of construction. . Borne will say, "My, why the curve?" To those unfa MlUjiir with the crossing it might; be well to state that the engineering feats are, to say the least, a trifle eccentric on .this overhead, for about the middle of the cement st riieturi: a curve has been made, and before tin; opposite end is reached it develops into quite a hump, as it were. , .Naturally this seems strange 1o the uniiiiormoii, aim perhaps the informed might have a hard time explaining it. f It is claimed to lie modern engineering and perhaps it Js. There are so many modern things that one must be careful else he will make a donkey out of himself asking questions. V Colleges have taught and are teaching strange and weird things. Perhaps the curve in the Hot Lake over head is the product of some eccentric engineering school; perhaps the bridge was started across t lie railroad track Hfraight and the wind was so strong that the other end of the bridge was twisted around ; perhaps it was too incx pplisive in its first form and therefore had; to be changed to absorb a certain alloted sum; perhaps two engineers got into a friendly argument and in order to settle the matter without leaving a mark on the professional courtesy each decided to go half way which leaves a very sharp curve in thq bridge. , o FAKE ROYALTY. .THE OFFICE CAT BY JUNIUS HULL NOT TO GIVESUPPOR Tor mar,yt year we wondered what H.

There is music in the air. weather rej.irts, crop statistics, stuff and curtain lectures. Also uplift Those New York society women sholdu't feel so bad about the exposure of the bright, voiing man whom they entertained as "Prince Louis Jlcnri de Chateranx do I'us nigny de Bourbon." Instead of being heir to the throne ni France and the chosen pal of the late lamented czar, it ap pears that the charming stranger was merely a gifted liar named Scharm. Hut what of that I lie is the same. man How that he was before, and no doubt just as charming, tfiftia and distinguished, if anybody will give him the chance to exercise his talents. ' Moreover, to an open-minded citizen outside of River side Drive and1 the fashionable residence sections of Long Island, the false prince, with all his defects, really pos sessed certain merits unusual among princes born to the purple. Foremost a ig them, he .earned his living a large part of the time. Such expenses as he chose to pay out of his own pocket seem to have been paid mostly from wages earned asa munition worker in New LondenConu., attd as a cook in a New York house of refuge. ; Hy day, this remarkable lyoung man was an honest "workman. Hy night he was a prince charming. Appar ently he gave full recompense to both bis emplnvers and his entertainers. Why, then, should the social' leaders Veep? Even when he turned crook, young Scharni was at least as worthy as some of'thcir noble and roval truest s : i ... i j . t . jiunoi'MMiig ocuer crcueiu mis. o .
