ABSENT-MINDED LONDON.

WHAT CITIZENS LOSE WHEN

TRAVELLING.

Londoners, in the opinion of Scotland Yard, are the most absent-minded people in the world. Every day the Yard's lost- property office is becoming more and more congested with such a medley of articles na could only be matched by the contents of a pawnbroker's storehouse.

When 3 reporter called: thore, he found it crammed with overcoats, rain. coats, bats, handbags, purses full of money and noter, cameras, vacuum flasks, hand. bags, suitcases and even portmanteaux packed with holiday outfits! There wer Countless walking-sticks, parasols, and cmbrellas, stacked on tiers of side shelves from floor to ceiling.

"We get, on an average, about 150 walking-sticks and umbrellas" brought in overy day," said one of the officers on duty. Judging frota the number of things brought here, people are beerming terribly careless. There never were so many things. lost as there are nowwbays".

Most of the articles which find their way to the lost-property department are deliver ed by taxicab drivers. It is deduced that the majority of people who use taxicabs are in a hurry and are thinking of Comething to be done at the end of the journey; there- fore, they are likely to be more absent. minded than people who travel on tramway. cara or Amniones.

It is found that few things are left in tramway ears, but many ure collected by omnibus conductors. -

00

An extraordinarily large number of handbags, and travelling rugs are lost during every holiday rush from London. In many instances suitcases have been left the tops of taxicabs when their owners have made a dual for a train on reaching the station. Thousands of par- cels are left behind every month in Un- derground trains-generally by passengera who become absorbed in a book on their journey.

But such is the honesty of London's taxicab drivers,.omnibus, tramway-car and train conductors, that one"may generally. count on recovering a lost article at the Yard's lost-property office-on payment of 28. G. in the of its value, which is handed over as a reward to the Ender. At the same time it may be regarded as u fine for the offcare of curèlessness!

DIGGING. THE CHANNEL TUNNEL.

The difficulty in the way of making the Channel tunnel, which has so long been discussed, is not in digging the tunnel, bat in getting rid of the material which would have to be dug out.

This is explained by Sty Perry, Tempest, Tunnel Parliamentary Committee, at which in a report of a meeting of the Changel he described experiments with a zew: ex- cavating machine, designed for digging the tunnel,
