IN THE race against time tbe Uni
ted States beat out tbe sun by two
minutes. In other ' words tbe sun
never sets on the territory of this land.
Before It enn set In one extreme Its
face peeps above the ocean at the
other, and on the longest day of the
year the flag beats the sun and has two
minutes to spare. Sixteen minutes are
added as tbe extreme limit to any day
In the equation of time; the flag has
eighteen over the half of the twenty
four hours. It is a narrow margin, but
It will do, as the following demonstra
tion will show.
It was not necessary for the United
States navy to take the Canaries In
order to exteud the territory eastward.
The taking of Porto Rico put the ex
treme eastern borders just ninety min
utes of longitude farther east anij six
niinutes of time in the same direction.
Eastport. Me., which for all tbe life of
the nation before the Spanish war, held
the honor, must now yield the palm to
Porto Rico. But the difference is com
paratively trilling. Porto Rico com
mencesJust out of the Saragossa sea
in longitude 05 degrees 30 minutes
west. Eastport is within half a mile of
07 degrees west. This makes tbe dif
ference ninety minutes of longitude in
favor of Porto Rico. Fifteen minutes
of longitude equal one minute of time,
so tbe Island wins by six minutes in
time.
With Porto Rico for the extreme
eastern starting point, the flag runs
with the sun to the Philippines. Tak
ing Manila as tbe western point al
though It is not the extreme point
and these United Statss extend over
184 degrees 32 minutes and 4 seconds
of longitude. That Is nearly five de
grees more than half the circumfer
ence of tbe earth. Tbe difference In
time between Porto Rico's eastern
point and tbe cathedral in Manila is
twelve hours and eighteen minutes. In
other words, when It was 5 a. m. In
Porto Rico Saturday moruing It was
4:42 p. m. Friday in Manila. Tl)is is,
of course, reckoning all from east to
west. Of course out somewhere In the
mighty Pacific they play fantastic
tricks and take their time from ToUio.
Singapore or some other oriental city
and lose a day, but that Is another
story.
But the sun pays no attention to the
fantasies of man; he Just goes on and
shows his face as the earth revolves on
Its axis. So It will be seen with this
wide variation of time covering thou
sands of miles, the sun will not set In
Manila on Friday before It has made
the Atlantic ruby red In the vicinity of
the eastern coast of the western conti
nent. In Porto Rico It will have lifted
Its disc above tbe tumbling waves for
several minutes In the summer and not
be far away In the dead of winter. So
the flag Is never wholly in the flark
these days, as the sun flashes on Its
ensign and stripes somewhere In the
earth every minutes of the day.
These United States did not need to
go beyond their original limits that Is,
their transcontinental limits to be
Inrger than any other land on earth.
The United States on this continent,
excluding Alaska and measuring in de
grees of longitude only continuous ter
ritory, covers 53 degrees. This limit is
taking San Francisco as the western
objective, although the California city
Is not as far west as some others far
ther north. The difference In time be
tween the extreme eastern coast at
Eastport and San Francisco is three
hours and forty minutes, quite an ex
tent of territory. From the seat of
government the time difference Is Just
three hours.
Westward the star of empire, etc.,
has been exemplified In nearly all that
the United States have done. Most
people would believe that when Hawaii
and the rest of the Sandwich group
were taken In by treaty that the west
ward limits were extended, yet this is
far from being true. Houolulu Is 10
degrees in longitude, or forty minutes
in time, east of Dawson City, Alaska,
and over an hour east of the extreme
western limits of the northern terri
tory. But a big Jump was made to the
west until longitude began to read east
when Dewey licked Moutejo In Manila
bay.
Incidentally these United States
cover a large amount of distance In lat
itude. They run from the arctic circle
to within hailing distance of the equa
tor. If an enormous flag were spread
out so that It would take In everything
over which It now floats the accurate
measurements would Just about bring
nil within Its borders. The Philippines
run down to within five degrees north
of the equator; the northern cape of
Alaska goes well up to 72 or 73 de
grees north latitude. So It will be si en
that a man must do a power of sailing
north, south, east and west to get away
from parallels of latitude and longi
tude from which the flag of America Is
absent.
Climatically the country now runs
the entire gamut of the earth. It h;is
possessions in the torrid climes very
near the central belt; it runs for de
grees into the frigid at the top of the
scale. It takes In every phase of at
mospheric manifestation and disturb
ance from! a typhoon to a blizzard. It
ranges from climes where Ice is never
absent to those where is- Is never
known. In some of the now posses
sions Ice could scarcely be maintained
with ammonia process, while In some
parts of Alaska It would scarcely yield
to electricity. .
This is the chart which the nation
offers In its race with the sun. Starting
with the eastern limits of Porto Rico
in longitude 05 degrees 30 minutes
west, with the time flxed at 5 a. m.,
the territorial limits, longitude and
time of day follow this schedule:
New York, longitude 70 degrees west,
time 4:15 a. m.
Chicago, longitude 88 degrees west, time
3:15 a. m.

BROOKLYN GIRL IN A TURKISH nAREM.
San Francisco, longitude 122 degrees beauty said she was a native of Brook
west, time 1:15 a. m. I iyn. The visitor expressed a desire to
Honolulu, longitude 155 degrees west, resCue her from degrading slavery and
time 1U:41 p. m. was astousllod t0 near the lrl gay
Dawson City, longitude IGo degrees ,, . , . , '

Ladrones, longitude 145 degrees east,
time 7:02 p. m,
Manila, longitude 122 degrees 58 min
utes east, time 4:42 p. m.
In the majority of these cases the
longitude Is taken from government
charts. The others are approximated,
but so nearly that exact measurements
will not show substantial variation. It
will be seen, therefore, with the exact
west longitude of Porto Rico set down
against an equally exact east longi
tude, counting both from Greenwich,
for Manila, the total distauce in de
grees, etc., and hours Is flxed. The In
termediate points outside of the conti
nental limits are estimated from their
location on the charts and may vary
as much as a couple of degrees. This,
however, would not make more than
eight minutes In time variation,
Prehistoric House In Indiana.
A prehistoric stone house has been
discovered on the Lewis farm near
Williamsburg, Ind. It Is several feet
beneath the surface, and was found
while workmen were . excavating
gravel. The bouse Is small and Is well
preserved. There are evidences of fire
having been used, and a piece of mate
rial was found that resembled melted
glass. There was also some lime and
some sun-dried bricks.
Old Slang Revived.
Slang is seldom new. "Not so worse"
flourished briskly for a few months and
has already fallen Into well-deserved
oblivion. Doubtless it seemed new for
a time. Yet a letter written by the
brilliant English magazlnlst, Samuel
Phillips, In 1843. published for the first
time In Mrs. Oliphaut's history of the
bouse of Blackwood, contains this sen-!b?tb Ws C0Un ry f h'3.0wn' attrlb
tence: "One hundred pounds for a" e th,e f0' y,e?T 0 lhe Unlt

The library of Gottlugen has a Bible

6,373 pages, each made of a single leaf.
There Is nothing that makes the wo

FAVORITE OF A HAREM.
Eeantl'ul Brooklyn Girl the Wife oi
a Paalia In Morocco.
For two years past a lovely Brooklyn
girl has been the favorite wife of a rich
Moor living at Tangier. She claims to
be perfectly happy, and declares that
not on any account would she leave her
present home. Some facts regarding
this remarkable young woman have
just been brought to this country by
Mrs. Haider, a member of the law class
of New York University. She, and her
husband have returned from an extend
ed wedding tour. In the course of which
they visited Tangier. While there Mr.
Haider secured for his wife permission
to visit the harem of an enormously
wealthy pasha living in that quaint old
place. In one splendid apartment of the
palace Mrs. Haider found the most
lovely woman she had ever seen. A
guide In a whisper informed the visitor
that this was the reigning favorite. The
beautiful creature did not lobk like an
Oriental, and Mrs. Haider asked her a
question in French. The favorite smil
ingly replied in English, saying that
was her native tongue. The accent sug
gested American education, and Mrs.
Haider hinted as much. Thereupon the
position for that of any other wom-
an In the world. I am perfectly happy
as happy as a queen."
"But," said Mrs. Haider, "how did
you ever get here? Were you stolen by
the pasha's people?"
"Oh, dear, no." was the reply. "I am
the daughter of a Brooklyn merchant.
My father was a widower and was In
the habit of making a yearly European
trip, i accompanied him twice. The
second trip we came to the 'far east.
While we were In Morocco and quite
accidentally the pasha saw me and
(here she hesitated and smiled) well,
fell in love with me. I cannot tell you
how I became aware of the honor he
showed me, but I deliberately chose my
life here as his wife. I have been the
favorite of the harem ever since I en
tered It, more than two years ago, and
I would not be anything else for the
world. Don't pity the American wife
of the grand pasha. It's a mere waste
of sentiment"
How He Won Her.
Tom I'm surprised to hear of Dlck's!
engagement to the wealthy Miss Antl
quate. I was under the Impresslom
that she was a confirmed man-hater. ,
Jack So she was, but Dick won her
through diplomacy.
Tom How so?
Jack She asked him to order a belli
for her bicycle and he told her that she
didn't require another, as there was a
belle on her wheel every time she rode
It. After that he had everything bis
own way.
His Idea.
A prominent Spaniard, who knows
oi our nouicu. uive American wives,"
he says, "to a million young men of
Spain, and the nation In half a century
will take Its place among tbe great na
tions of Europe."
