Number of Wrecks and Dives Leet —126 Persons Net Death— Sable Island, The report of the weenie section of the Department of Alarine and Fish - edge, recently issued glow' some in- Lereeting details concerning the. branches cif public work under the ■uporvision of the department. The amount expended on the vac - lone branches of the public service M the control of this department during the last fiscal year was $1,036,269.96. The total number of persons in the service of the marine branch, includ- jng the crews of marina and fishery steamers, is 1,941, Canada's registered mercantile steamships have increased during the past year by forty-five. The .gross tonnage represented by the 1,860 steamships inspected by Canadian inspectors aggregates 212, 807 tans, as against 226,170 tons Cor the previous year. The total number of casualties to British and Canadian sea -going ves- sels reported to the Department of Marine as having occurred In Cot - eaten waters, and to Canadian ves- sels in water other than those of Canada, during the twelve =Alm ended June 30, 1901, was 186. This represented a tonnage of 47,181 tons register, valued at $285,782. Thir- ty-two of these casualties occurred on inland rs wate and about two- thirds of these wore destroyed by fire, demonstrating that., on 'Mattel waters at least, fire is by far mere destructive to shipping than shoal and gale combined. LIVES LOST, One hundred and twenty-six lives wero lost in these disasters. Thirty of these unfortunates found their graves in fresh water. Of the re- mainder the stormy, rock-bound sea coast of Canada claimed the major- ity as a sacrifice. Ara compared with the previous years, the registered tonnage de- stroyed was considerably more in the year ending 1900, but the loss of, life occasioned by the disasters of 1900 was mush less than in 1901. The lighthouses and other aids to safe navigation throughout the Do- minion were administered by this de- partment last year at a cost of $578,012.72. Seven hundred and eight light- house keepers aro employed at salar- ies aggregating $21.3,890.67 in keep- ing the Lamps trimmed and burning in 708 lighthouses throughout the Dominion. The salaries of these Government servants range all the way from thirty to one thousand dollars a year. More than one hundred thous- and gallons of oil were consumed during the year, the cost of which wins $19,339.50. in addition to the lighthouses, there are several lightships main- tained in the Gulf and River St, Lawrence, at contract prices relining up into the thousands. The extended coast int lin c of Canada fl a and the numerous great lakes and other navigable waters, require a large number of buoys, which are maintained at an average cost of 855,000 per annum. The work of repairing and replacing these buoys is let out by contract. SABLE ISLANh PLANTATION, The report contains some interest- ing information relating to that lit- tle but highly important litt,e sq,eek on the ocean, Sable Island, situated ono hundred miles or more from the Nova Scotia coast line. It is a mat- ter of common knowledge that, the i b extent of Sable Island is rapidly be- coming less year by year, from the d combined attacks of wind and waves. It is anticipated that the ultimate r fate of the island will be entire Strb- m mergence. This would create an in- visible shoal which would be much d more dangerous to navigation than the existing island, with the long sandbars at either end of it. The 0 Marine Department has for many years been considering practicable methods for delaying or preventing the ultimate destruction of the is- land. In view of the immense coast. line to be protected, a system of breakwater groynes was reported on as impracticable. While visiting the island in 1899, Lieut. -Col. Gourdeau, Deputy Minister of Marine, observed that the island was treeless although the abundant growth of sea grass proved that the soil was not utterly unproductive. Adopting a French scheme, fifty thousand young trees and shrubs were planted on the is - lane. At the end of a year the re- port says that the trees and shrubs h were, generally speaking, doing very t'0 Cell, About ninety -live per cent, of Pe elle transplanted young forest trees were in the pink of condition. Evi- dence of the effectiveness of the trees in arresting the disorganization of the island was apparent at the last inspection, -----,- DIDN'T WANT SORTINCI, A. TALK WITH GIRLS.

A NATURAL MAGNET. A scientific professor was once lec- turing in a provincial town on nat- ural philosophy, and in the course of his experiments he introduced a most powerful magnet, with which he at- tracted a block of iron from a dis- tance of two feet. "Can any of you conceive a greater attractive power?" demanded the lecturer, with an air of triumph. "I con," answered a voice from the au r dtcn e. "Not a t uttural, terrestrial object?" "Yes, indeed." The lecturer, somewhat puzzled, challenged the marc who had spoken to name the article. Then up rose an old countryman. Said he: "f will give you facts, Pro- fessor, and you can Judge for your- self. When I was a young man there was n little piece of natural magnet done up in 0 neat cotton dress as was coffee Betsy Maria. She could draw me fourteen miles on Sunday, over plo'tglted land; no matter what the wind or weather, there wasn't no resisting her. That magnet o' yourtt is pretty good, but it won't draw so far as llet:sy Maria." TEETHING TIME.
