WHY
People Store Things in London
Repository Old Mystery
A London repository which lias Its
storehouse beside the Thames has the
world’s strangest collection of goods.
In one room, relates a writer in the
Montreal Herald, there Is an electric
brougham which has been In the re
pository for over 30 years. It has a
special kind of steering wheel, and
was left there by an old Indy while
these carriages were still In fashion. It
is only one of the mysteries which
are to he found in every room.
Some people use it for storing their
cars. There are machines of every
type, shape and make, some of which
have been there for over ten years.
Others, who have no wine cellars,
store their wine there. When they
need some they go with a case and
take away two or three bottles.
A special room Is reserved for stor
ing musical instruments. It is kept
day and night at a temperature of CO
degrees.
The repository will move goods left
In its charge to any part of the globe.
The furniture of President Hoover,
who lived for many years In London,
was moved across the Atlantic In this
way.
And upon one occasion, an 8,000 ton
steamer was chartered to carry the
furniture of an entire hotel to Ber
muda.
Why Siberian Point Is
Coldest Place in World
Verkhoyansk, Siberia, holds the
world’s blue ribbon for frigid winter
weather, couipnred with any other
place where temperatures are regu
larly measured.
Vladimir Zenzlnov, in "The Road to
Oblivion,” quoted by Charles Fitzhugh
Talnrnn In his Science Service feature.
Why the Weather? says of some ef
fects of the severe cold:
‘‘You take a glass of water and dash
It high into the air, the liquid will
come down In the form of ringing
crystals of ice. Spittle will freeze be
fore reaching the ground. All live
things seek deep shelter during the
winter. Partridges dig themselves far
into the snow and stay there. There
have been cases of their falling like
stones while in flight, freezing to death
In the air. Marmots hide In under
ground holes where they hibernate, as
suming the shape of a little clayllke
ball. The Ice becomes so hard the ax
rebounds from it Live wood becomes
petrified, and w’hen one chops It,
sparks fly as if from flint”—Literary
Digest.
Why Called “High Sea.”
One of the definitions of the word
"high” Is this: “Of relatively great
Importance; chief; main, principal."
The high seas are the main sens,
Just as highroad Is a main thorough
fare. The term Is applied to waters
which do not lie within the body of a
country, and are beyond the territo
rial jurisdiction of any government.
The United States Supreme court,
though with a division of opinion, has
held that the uninclosed part of the
Great Lakes is included in the term
■'high seas," as having the general
characteristics of seas and being open
to the largest vessels and international
trade.
Why “Pool.” Appear in Highway.
It often appears there are pools of
water on the highway ahead which
disappear as'■your car aproaehes. Of
course it is a mirage, but then what
causes a mirage? Mr. Webster do
fines it as an optical effect due to the
total reflection of light at the surface
common to two strata of air heated
differently. On the desert, country
roads or paved highwnys one may
often see .what appears to be water.
In the middle of the ocean objects
may be seen which are not there at
all, but are reflections of objects fur
away.
Why Trou.er. Are Created
A tailor declares it was a gradual
broadening of the idea among men
that trousers so treated hang better
than those not creased. At one time
most men disliked the idea of having
those razor-edged creases in trousers,
but fashion. It seems, decreed that the
man desiring to be nnywhere near the
style simply had to have the crease.
It was a sort of evolution In the mas
cullne Idea of trousers as they should
be.—Kansas City Star.
THE USEFUL HOBO
Tn the minds of most persons,
the terms hobo, tramp and bum
have practically the same
meaning. But this idea is
wrong, according to M. Lein
en, agent for a large New
York employment company,
who declares that he has
hired as many as 133,000
Bowery hoboes for railroad
work in a single year, and says
they were “a fine bunch ot
men.”
Mr. Leinen describes the diff
erence between the three class
es mentioned somewhat as fol

Why India Does Not Make Salt
The government of England does not
prohibit the people of India from mak
ing salt, but for a great many years
the small tax on the manufacture of
salt has been a source of government
revenue to defray the expenses of the
government. This Is similar to the
tax placed upon liquors, tobacco, etc.,
by the United Stales government
Why Coin Is Called “Dime”
Dime is derived troin the Latin, de
cern, meaning tenth. A dime was
| originally used to denote a tenth part
l n tithe paid to a church, or to a tem
poral ruler. The first use was In
1377. From this it came to mean a
tenth of a dollar. In 17St> there Is rec
ord of its use In connection with Con
tinental currency.
Why Death Masks Were Used
Masks were employed to perpetuate
the appearance of the living after
death and placed niton the mummy to
aid In its revivification, according to
their belief.
Why Cent Six# Was Reduced
Copper l-cenl pieces were reduced In
size In lSoC because of the greater con
venience of the small sixed coin.
lows: A hobo is a traveling
worker: a tramp is a travel
ing non-worker; a bum is a
stationary non-worker. While
the three intermingle in the
large cities during the winter,
and the classes are not strict
ly defined, when the opportun
ity comes the hobo is willing
to work, while the others are
not.
Hoboes travel from place to
place seeking seasonable em
ployment, such as harvesting,
railroad and other construct
ion work, as common laborers,
so they fill a real place in the
country’s economic system.
While they are not always ex
emplary in morals and conduct,
they are honest and industri
ous, as a rule.
And they have a sense of
pride as well. The hobo wants
to be known as a hobo, and he
is insulted when called a
tramp or a bum.
THE AMERICA’S CUP
At Gosport, England, was re
cently launched a new racing
yacht, the Velsheda, which is
expected to compete for the
famous America’s cup, won
first on August 22, 1851,
when the America defeated
the English Aurora, and kept
on this side of the Atlantic
ever since.
This original contest for the
coveted trophy was a single
race, as was the second in
1870 when the American
Magic defeated the English
Cambria. Since then the con
tests have been decided by
the best two out of three races
or the best three out of five.
To date 13 British challen
gers have tried unsuccessfully
to wrest the cup from Ameri
can yachtsmen, of which the
last five were owned by the
late Sir Thomas Lipton, who
made his last attempt in 1930,
when his Shamrock V was de
feated by the American yacht
Enterprize. He had promised
to try a sixth time, but death
intervened.
Sir Thomas was greatly ad
mired by the American people
; and shortly after his last de
j feat he was .invited to return
to New York to receive a “con
solation cup” as a token of
j appreciation of his fine sports
; manship. He was affection
ately known as ‘the world’s
best loser.”
ALASKA NOTES
Snow fell in Faribanks for the
first time this year on Septem
ber 18, two days earlier than
last year. There was an inch
of snow at Wiseman the same
day, also at Livengood, Fort
Yukon and various other plac
es in that locality.
Mrs. J. G. Smith, aged 60, a
resident of Alaska since she
joined her husband in Juneau
in 1894, died recently in Wran
gel. The Smith’s mined a small
fortune at Nome between 1901
and 1905. They operated a
fox farm near Seward.
