NEW YORK 0UT VENICES
FAMOUS WATERWAY CITY
More Islands Rivers and Canals About
Manhattan
Venice the queen of the Adriatic
with her 157 interlacing canals that
form 118 islands is less of a water
city than is the metropolis of America
for New York has a greater navigable
water front than any other city in the
world The waters within the bound
aries of Venice could be swallowed
up by the currents that ebb and flow
within New York and make no per
ceptible addition to them New York
has just as much moonshine aud lots
more water and though the guitar
and musical voice of the gondolier are
not hoard other voices less romantic
are heard on almost every sort of craft
that floats in water
New Yorks islands are more in num
ber than those of Venice and in Ja
maica bay alone are as great possibili
ties as the lagoon of Venice ever pre
sented for a beautiful city still re
maining possibilities If Venice were
placed in the center of that bay thre
would be more expanse of water
around it than there is now in the
entire lagoon of Venice
In New York city are 204 miles of
navigable water front from the unpre
tentious kills of Staten Island to the
great Atlantic that washes the Coney
Island shore and beaches of Rockaway
Much of the city is islands and what
is not are great peninsulas more than
half surrounded by water
Richmond alone has nearly forty
miles of shore line and Manhattan ha
thirty more miles where bows of tht
CTcatest ships that tloat can reach ovoi
the land Queens and the Bronx hav
fifty miles which embrace the wester
ly end of Long Island sound and thr
winding shores of Brooklyn with the I
irrent Jamaica bay make up the rest I
SOBER CONGRESS IN ANDORRA
Parliament of Tiny State Ruled by
Tradition
The parliamentary procedure of An
dorra the tiny independent state
which lies sandwiched between France
and Spain is of the quaintest kind
Parliament having been called for a
certain day the honorable members
arrive in groups on horses or mules
shed with the usual Andorran foot
gearwhite corded sandals
The Sasa de la Vails serves at the
ame time for palace parliament and
prison not to mention stables for the
members steeds After stabling the
animals on the ground floor the mem
bers ascend to the hall of deliberations
change their sandals for shoes and put
on the oflicial costume a long black
sort of robe and a huge three cornered
hat These when not in use hang in a
row on pegs at the bottom of the hall
The next proceeding is mass in the
chapel tiny and bare dedicated to the
Holy Ghost then comes a meal served
on an oaken table without a cloth and
eaten off antique pewter plates Be
tween every two members stands a
huge porron and each drinks in turn
out of this pitcher In this home of
archaicism everything is done accord
ing to tradition Even the daily menu
is the same today as it was centuries
ago
St Johns Wort Spreads Over 20000 I
Farming Acres
Just thirty years ago a woman at
Bright Victoria planted in her garden
a few seeds of St Johns wort sent her
from the old country The womans
intention was to have one or two of
the plants at hand for medicinal pur
poses The hardy weed however soon
spread beyond the garden and before
nny one had grasped the magnitude of
the evil it had been carried by cattle
along all the main stock routes and
jumped the Victorian watershed into
Gippslaud
It has now completely taken posses
sion of something like 20000 acres of
agricultural land and the agricultural
department of Victoria is spending
thousands of pounds in the endeavor
to eradicate it some of the methods
tried costing nearly 30 an acre
