He-ward Huanphreys - says : ''Germany spent fifteen •; millions sterling- on her waterworks ' between 1880 and 1899, and a further, expenditure-.of twenty-two millions ,- sterling has either been- entered upoin or is immediately: contemplated: in ofder .'.to Complete the; waterways .which intersect the northern parts ofthe country.

Dr James Rooth, who is attending tlie case (says a late issue of the Lohdon Express) states that each child has a. distinct individuality, for one lias been noticed to be crying while her sister was sound asleep. The babies are joined in such a w<ay that they are almost: back to back, and they have to sleep on' -their sides with faces turned from each' other. . It is believed that any attempt to separate them would lead to tlie death of one .or- both, but to ascertain exactly whether this is so tlie children' are to : be pho'bographed' under the X-rays in. order to, reveal the nature of the connection.. At present the children are very healthy and lively. Their mother is poor, and the strange twins have been adopted; by a childless womaih. j The law only allows of th© adoption of one child by an unlicensed foster mother, and the authorities are wondering whether they must regard the twins as on* child or two.
