the water, and it is hoped that traf
fic will be re-established tomorrow.
The work of boring the Simplon
tunnel through the Alps was started
on Aug. 13 1898, and the last rock
partition be*ween the two boring gal
leries fell on Feb. 24, 1905. Enor
mous difficulties were overcome in
its construction. The temperature
at times was so high that it was al
most impossible for the workmen to
carry on their operations, and the
soft, crumbling character of the rock
was a further hindrance. But the
worst and most dreaded foe was
the tremendous flood of hot and cold
water streams which poured out of
the inmost recesses of the mountain,
bringing destruction in their course
and annihilating everything that
came their way. The tunnel is the
lowest of those already bored through
the Alps. Trains started to run
through the tunnel in 1906. After a
train passes into the tunnel doors are
closed behind, it.

BURBANK SAYS ALASKA
WILL FEED AMERICA
DAWSON, Y. T.—Alfred Burbank,
noted plant specialist, brother of
Luther Burbank, after visiting here,
declares the valleys of Alaska and
Yukon have marvelous capabilities
for root crop production. He sdys:
“Give me time in Alaska and I
will evolve a potato that will be
adapted thoroughly to condition*
there and tha* will be free from,
water, equal to any grown in the
‘world, amt that will enable Alaska,
with her thousands of miles of fine
valleys, to supply all the potatoes
needed in the United States. Amer
ica’s potato lands are already short
and much more will be needed. Alas
ka may be looked to for the future
supply. Alaska also should ship
cabbages, turnips, celery and all
kinds of root crops. ,The govern
ment railways and rivers afford the
natural highways. Siberian apples
should thrive in Alaska.” *
Children’s Bureau Proposed.
BUDAPEST, July 23.—Taking its
cue from the United tSates, the Hun
garian government plans 10 estab
lish a national children's bureau.
The purpose is to concentrate the
present activities of the state, the
municipalities and public societies
into a central department which will
in effect be a ministry of Child Wel
fare. A bill on the subject intro
duced in parliament has met with
generous support and is expected to
be adopted shortly. One clause pro
vides for the special care and train
ing of any children in whom unusu
al talent, in science or art, may he
discovered.
Wanted, a Son.
LONDON, July 23.—A visit from
the stork is expected by Prince and
Princess Arthur of Connaught this
summer. The Princess is the only
Duchess in her own right atnong the
British peerage and, by the terms
of the patent, if she has only daugh
ters the dukedom of Fife will pass
to her sister, the Princess Maud, and
if the latter has no sons It will lapse.
If, however, a son is born to Prin
cess Arthur, he will inherit the duke
dom. Prince Arthur and the then
Duchess of Fife were married last
October.
Love and Lunacy Abroad In June.
PARIS, July 23.—June, when Cupid
is buisest, is also the month of lun
atics, according to Dr. Roubinovitch,
chief of staff at the Bicetre Hospital
for the Insane here. His statistics,
which cover a number of years, show
June to lead all other months by
far with its average number of new
cases of mental breakdown. Septem
ber shows the smallest average. The
scale runs: June 1,896, May 1,753,
July 1,745, October 1,744, March 1,
729, January 1,709, December 1,692,
April -1,649, August 1,632, November
1*614, February 1,503, September 1,
501. The alienist believes that spring,
with its effects on the average ner
vous system, has something to do
with the averages.
Big Game Preserve Proposed.
SAN FRANCISCO. July 23.—Ac
cording to the United States forestry
bureau here a strong movement is
on foot to have 50,000 acres extend
ing back from the Pacific coast near
Santa Monica to the San Fernanda
valley set aside as a game preserve.
If the plan goes through not only
will no hunting be permitted for%
decade but campers will be required
to give their names and addresses as
ft means of fixing responsibility for
forest fires.
