Tbe hole knocked in the Regulator

The reports today show that the hole

possible the story grew on its way up,

At any rate, the bole was 144 times
larger when the news reached here than
it was when it left the Locks. '

the Main Amusements of am
' dolent People
The Burmese are by all accounts an
indolent people. One traveler goes so
far as to say that one day's work and
four days' rest is their idea of industry.
The same traveler, Mr. E. D. Cuming-,
author of "In the Shadow of the Pa
poda," describes them as much given
to kite-flying, an amusement which
they contrive to enjoy with a minimum
of bodily exertion. Their method of
operations is very simple. Says Mr.
Cuming:
Yon pare down two twelve-inch Blips
of bamboo, tie them at their centers
crosswise, run a thread round the four
tips, and paste upon this frame ono
thickness of paper. Tic a nail Or a
small screw-nut to one corner and
your kite is made.
The altitude which a well-made kite
of this kind will reach is wonderful.
and the lightest breath of wind will
take it up. A hundred and fifty or two
hundred yard3 of strong' sewing- thread,
wound on a skeleton reel of four inches
in diameter and eight inches in length,
completes the equipment.
Then, having1 started the kite by a
process of .gentle playing., you squat
down in the middle of the street, so as
to keep your thread clear of the
houses, and let the kite help itself.
If you have fastened the thread with
cunning, the kite rises almost perpen
dicularly, bringing you joy in the envy
and admiration of those who cannot
make a steeper angle than forty de
grees. The kite having taken out all
the thread, you sit and contemplate it
poised still and clear in the upper air
for a few hours.
In Rangoon, on a still morning or
evening, hundreds "of kites float over
the Burmese quarter of the town, some
nearly out of sight, others hovering
just above the roofs. When driving.
your syce has frequently to halloo out
of the way a middle-aged man who is
backing slowly down in mid street
coaxing his kite up. He goes about
the ' business with a ponderous
solemnity that raises it to the dignity
of a science. "
