San Francisco discovered an old wooden ship under the streets of its! business section recently, relates Popular Mechanics Magazine. Contractors, excavating a deep foundation for a new skyscraper with steam shovels, were hindered in their work by strange massive timbers found 80 feet below the surface. They had accidentally stumbled upon the preserved remains of some strange burled craft.

The broiize-shcatned and copper-) 11. 11 1 1- 1 uuueu uu measured J.uu ieei, in length by 30 feet beam, and great in- terest was aroused by the puzzling lo-j cation of the relic a mile from any water. The city's history revealed, however, that it was the Euphemia, a bit of whose historic and romantic existence is as follows: In the days of '49, when the mad stampede around the Horn to the new California gold fields was on, numerous ships were abandoned by their crews at the end of the journey, and left to rot on the mud flats of San Francisco bay. But, in forming the municipal government of the fast-growing city by the Golden Gate, the first town council bought the Euphemia, and converted it into a prison ship. Those were "rough" days in San Francisco and this, the first jail the city could boast, was tied to a wharf, and soon filled up.

An old sketch of scene at this part of the water front reveals another ship, the Apollo, converted into a saloon and lodging house. As the city grew and forced the waters of the bay back from the spot by filling in tne snanows, the novel spectacle was formed of a strange ship sticking up out of the ground in the heart of the city, surrounded by substantial stone and brick structures. During the nest 56 years, the city attained great size. Then it was sud- denly half leveled by a great Ore. And had it not been for the necessity of a deep foundation for the latest edifice to rise over the spot, 72 years after the Euphemia became a jail, the old hull would have slumbered on for another fifty or one hundred years.

As It was, the contractors experienced considerable difficulty in removing the mud and sand-locked skeleton with modern steam tackle, but made a small fortune out of the sale of the heavy copper and brass junk found on It. NEVER AGAIN FOR PLUM LEY Victim of Unkind Suspicions Will Carry No More Stuff Home to Oblige the Wife. Mr. Flumley was embarrassed and well might he be. For the suitcase he was carrying had sprung a leakl And as ho walked swiftly through the crowd on the street it seemed that everyone glanced down at the leather bag, and saw that something wrong.

Curses on that prohibition law! Ever since It had been passed people noticed any one who carried a package especially a suitcase. A policeman eyed him suspiciously and Plumley hurried faster than ever, almost breaking into a run. He boarded a Btreet car and placed the bag on the floor In front of hlra, trying to cover It with his feet as much as possible. It was useless. The stuff con tinued to trickle out and soon formed a miniature pool.

Some of the red-nosed male passengers looked envi ous straphangers saw It and smiled even the ignorant-appearing wop in the next seat looked wise! But all Plumley could do. was to turn several colors and wish them all in hades' In something like a vear tho car ar-1 rived at his suburban home. "Were you able to get any?" osked his wife at once. "Yes." said Plumley, throwing the suitcase to the floor with a bang, "plague take 'em I Those are the last oysters I'll ever carry home!" with provisions of Sec. 5 of No.

The American constitution Is now in a fair way to become saturated with carbonic acid gas. Reference is not made to the document signed by the forefathers, but to the constitution that gets run down every spring and has to be perked up with cod liver "oil.

Well, It won't be as bad as it sounds. Carbonic acid gas is quite harmless. It's made from coke, and it Is probably the most versatile servant that mankind has. It's like those medicines that the'almanacs say are good for everything. It can put a kick in your Ice-cream soda, or your lemon phosphate.

It's in all fire extinguishers. It's used tb harden steel. It's used in making sugar, to remove the lime from the Juice of the cane. It's refrigerating agent and also Is used in making bicarbonate of soda, the substance one takes for heartburn. And it forms one of the chief curative agents used in the baths at such resorts as Neahelm I in Europe and Saratoga In this country.

Manufacturers of carbonic gas in this country report that they have doubled their output in the last year because of the Increased demand for carbonated beverages, or "soft drinks." At present, in round numbers, carbonic edd gas enters into 375,000,000 gallons of beverages In the United States. Figuring on sixteen drinks from a gallon, you have 6,000,000,000 soft drinks as the approximate consumption year. Sixty sodas apiece. Chicago Journal. i DCZ.

The porter frequently was called for help. One morning he met the older sister, who weighed near the 180 mark, and remarked: "Why, your mother Just walked down the aisle. She must be much better." And when the porter was told of the "social error" he had made, ho spent the greater part of the remainder of the journey pleading with the older sister not to tell of his mistake.
