A Blessing in Disguise.

The recent flood Ill the Mississippi
and its upper tributaries carried away
thousands of tons of ice, Dubuque
being among the sufferers. 1t is pos
sbe that the price may therefore be in
creased on what remains. In some re.
spects this would not be an unwelcome
fact, as it would ubquestionably reduce
the consumption. A great deal of harm
to health and many deaths result, as
everybody knows, from ipjudicious
use of cold liquids to quehch thirst
dnring our blazing summers. Persons
exposed to the heat, especially those
hard at work, caunot, or will not, re-
train from drinking, for they feel the
need OF supplying the waste from CO.
pious perspiration. What, then, shall
they drink? Water seems. under the
circumstances, to be inadequate to the
wants Of the sy stem. 1t passes through
the circulation to the skin as through
sieve, and flows over the surface in
streams. A big drink of cold, or even
Of cool, water ON an empty stomach is
very dangerous; it is liable to produce
sndden death. The danger may be
avoided, it is SAID, by putting farina-
ceous substances, particularly oatmeal,
with the water to re drank by laborers,
the proper proportion being three or
four ounces Of meal to gallon of wa
ter. Why oatmeal should be better
than rye, millet, buck wheat or corn
meal can not easily be determined, but
those who have used oatmeal, especial
ly fremen, coalheavers and the like,
say that it gives them greater endur
anee and increases their strength. This
may be a mere n0tloh, but the peculiar
aroma of the oats may be associated
with an agreeable stimulation of the
alimentary mucous surface as to pro-
mote complete digestion. The meal
appears to fill the blood vessels without
Increasing the cutaneous exhalations.
WOrkmen who have tried acid, saccha
rine, or alcoholic drinks as substitute
TOR the oatmeal drinks have invariabl bly
expressed unsatisfactory results. Water
with oatmeal seems to be by all odds
the most wholesome anil desirable:sum-
mer drink for manual laborers.-Du.

Modern Men of Great Wealth.

The ancient historians have a great
deal to say about the wealth of various
old Greeks and Romans, but none oi
them were so rich, in all probability
az are many living Americans. Cim.
sus, King ef Ly dia, five hundred years
before the Christian era, had so much
gold, with other kinds of property,
that "rich as Crosus" has been for
ages thread bare simile. He was the
great plutocrat Of antiquity, ane it is
difficult to judge of the value of his
possessions, but it is not at all likely
fhat it ever reached more than $40 600
900 to $l2 900 900 of our money. There
are, no doubt, forty New Workers at
least worth more tnan he, and some
six or seven may have four fold his
wealth. The richest Roman in julius
CRsar's time, and one of the ttiumvi-
rate, was Marcus Luciries Crassus, all
astute speculator, noted for avarice.
His fortune has often been estimated,
and never above 50 900 900 to $40 900, :
0Oo IL United States currency. An Athe-
nian or Roman who could count his
estate at What would pe l 000, 900 of
our dollars WAS considered immensly
wealthy, but residents of Mauhatten
who have no more than 81 100000 are
not nov considered particularly well
Oft. and are unknown among the opu-
leut members OF the community. Mere
milllonaires are SO Common here as to
merit little distinction financially.
There were no such estates in ancient
tim s as those of the Asturs ami Van-
derbllts. and no such private fortunes
as are held not only here, but III Bos-
ton, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Chicago,
San Francisco, and other cities of the
Republic. The growth of wealth has
be en- prodigious in this country within
this generation. Some of the largest
aocnmulations in the land have been
made within forty Or fifty years. Halt
century ago only one man in the
Metropolis was worth 81 coo 600, and
his name WAS John Jacob Astor. Now
hundreds of oar fellow-c citizens can go
beyond those figures, and they feel
rather poor than otherwtsp. When
Stephen Girard died. III 1881, he was
considered by all ohds the richest man
OIL this contlnent-nobody approached
or began to approach hIm monetariIy-
and yet his property was not valued at
more than 50 900 600 Men who do
not regard themselves as very old, cau
easily remember VIII. 500 900 was
thought TO be Il fortune. even IN our
largest cities, and when $40, 900 in the
small towns was dee med au lndepend-
ence- AT present SlO0 600 is hardly
reck"ned sufficient 10 make man
comfortable, and $l0O, 90 would not
be- deserving of mentl"n. unless in a
rural village of New England, where
general poverty lends msgnifying
power to any eye that contemplates
any kind OF coin. Within the next
htty years it is likely that private for
tunes will be Increased hey ond what
they have been in the same perio in
the past. In 1880 and 1910 it is prou-
able enough that We shall hear of plain |
American citiz-ns who are worth from
$lO0 600 900 to $3.50 00O, 900, and who
Wall be grumbling that they have no
more-N. Y. Times.

Uses of the Telephone.

The practical uses of the telephone
are being constantly extended. It
now appears as the means by which an
important improvement in British
journalism has just been made by the
London Times, namely, the reporting
of the late after-midnight debates in
the House of Commons. It seems that
the many prominent men-those whose
| speeches in Parliament are most widely
read-are in the habit of speaking at
very late hours. Owing to this fact,
and to the further fact that the leading
morning trains start an hour earlier
than formerly, it has always been diff
cult, and sometimes impossible, for
the great morning dailles to give u
satisfactory report of what was said in
the House the night of going to press.
1t has been scarcely practicable to
give full report of u speech made af.
ter one o'clock, aud only mere ab
stract of what was said or done after
two o'clock VAS possible. The reports
of late Speeches, necessarily imperfect,
have gwen rise to complaints ON the
part OF members of Parliament, ana
even to suggestions that some more sat
isfa' tory means Of publishing tue
Parliamentary debates be provided.
70 overcome these diff ulties the Lon
don Times has called the telephone to
its aid. 1t has made telephouio COM
munlcation between its Office and the
House OF Commons, in each OF which
is placed one Of Edison's loud speak
ing telephones. Iustead of writing
out his notes and transmitting them by
telegraph or otherwise proceeding
which has heretofore consumed good
deal of precious time the reporter,
or, If he is busy, some other person,
reads tie report in the telephone re-
celyer placed IN room adjoining the
gallery. At the receiver at the other
end in the printing, tfice is the COM
posltor. The disk OF tue telephone is
placed above anu behind Inn. Two
tubes, with trumpet-shaped ends, are
so arranged that one end of each is ut
the Telephone disk aud the other ends
at the ears of the compusitor. Iu this
way all dlstractlng noloes are shut Oft

According to the Kansas City Reriew

According to the Kansas City Reuiew
remains of gigantic race of men. con-
siderably advanced in civilization,
have been discovered in cave on the
old Smith farm in Tifin Township,
Adams County, Ohio. The cavern had
at one time been a burial-place. and
contained many tombs adorned with
bas-reliefs Of a very high artistic char
acter. One of the tombs, when broken
open, was found to contain the mummy
of man niue feet one inch in length.
Several tools and weapons of copper
we're found In the tomb, hardened to
such degree that a file will barely
scratch the lance. It is to be hoped
that further examinations will be un-
dertaken by fully qualified persons.
Perhaps at last light will be thro ~n

OUR STARVING RED BRETHREN.
Special Dispatch to the Bismarck rribu

Special Dispatch to the Bismarck Tribune.
Fort Buford, D. T., Jan. 29.-Gentlemen
who are perfectly reliable arrived here to.
day from the upper country, bringing the
following information: Thirty lodges more
Of Uncapapa Indians under White Cuts and
Gull are at Poplar River agency. Eighty
additional lodges under Brave Bear and
Sitting Eagle are at Wolf Point and the
main camp Of the 90 called hostiles is To-
Gated on Rock creek with the half breeds.
These Indians all say that starvation was
already staring them in the face that there
is no game north ofthe line and were they to
return they would be forced to slaughter their
ponies for food in order to sustain their lives.
They were all of opinion that BY coming
in, the government would once more open
its arms to them and feed them at Poplar
River. They called upon Major Porter,
the agent. for rations. He told them that
by s~urrendering their ponies and arms they
could obtain food. To this they demur, say
ing, I'VE have no ponies and guns" They
are somewhat divided - to surrenderine
their two great essentials, to a hostile band,
apart beingin favor Of doing 90 and others
opposed to it. Msjor Porter, however, is
said to be 6rm upon this point. Reports
reached here to-day that a large
band Of Uncapapas arrived yesterday
evening at the Gros Ventre camp
on the Yellowstone, near Glendive, and
with the great nonchalence proposed to
share with the Gros Ventres the supply of
bq ifalo meat which the latter had stored, up
for their future need. The point of the pre-.
position was not plainly discerned By old
"CroW.thst- Flies. High" the Gros Ventrea
chief, who, instead Of tamely submitting 10
the demands Of the Sioux, called his var
riors around him and drawing them up IN
battle array. signi6ed his intention Of giving
the Uncapapa braves an unqualified Stand
Off" No blood was shed, however. and at
the last accounts everything was quiet. The
report 10 thought to be perfectly reliable,
although it has not yet been confirmed here.
