GOVERNOR CORNELL has vetoed the bill
passed by the New York Legislature pro-
viding for the pensioning of school teach
ers after certain term of service in the
public schools of New York and Brook
lyn. He does not think it is spolitic to
create = new body of pensioners.
A COMMISSION has been appointed to in
quire into the working of mills, factories
and workshops in the Dominion of
Canada, to ascertain how many children
under the age of fourteen years are en-
ployed, what are the hours of labor, the
means of escape in case of fire, the ventil-
alton, etc.
ILLUSTRATIVE Of the value of scientific
and industrial education is the fact that
the graduates of the Massachusetts, Insti-
tute of Technology seldom have to wait
long for a job. OF the 2S young men who
graduated last week, 90 were either en-
gagged in advance or have since found lu-
crative positions.
In the eyes of the Philadelphia Eoening
Telegraph it appears that the semi .humor-
Gus view which the British government
takes of the Irish American situation is
based upon the semi humorous resolution
which the members of tho House of Rep
resentatives adopted with the view of
making themselves solid with the Irish
voters. Funny-or perhaps we might
say scmi-funny-statesmanship all around;
isn't it.
STRAWBERRY season is rapidly drawing
to close and in few days more the
toothsome berries will disappear from our
tables. The season has been a most pro-
life one and the berries have been unusually
large and fine, while prices have ruled
low. In few days more raspberries will
make their appearance, they having al
ready done SO in the city markets. The
growers report that tho crop of raspber-
ries will be large as will also be the black
berry which succeeds them. Cherries
made prophecy of fine yield when the
snowy blossoms covered the trees in the
early spring, but the heavy rains after
wards have caused most of the fruit to rot
and drop off.
No apprehension need be had over the
unusual appearance of comets during the
present year, since the comforting assur-
ance is given by the Warner observatory
Of Rochester, N. Y, that they do not pos.
scss the power to work injury upon the
earth or any other planet. This informa-
tion is furnished in view of the discovery
by DR.. Gould, director of tho Cordova
observatory, Argentine Republic, South
America, of stellar vagrant which is sup
posed to be the great comet Of 1907, and
is located in the constellation of the Dove,
right ascension 6 hours and declination
south 30 degrees. 1t is not visible from
this latitude and not known yet that it will
be, although it is likely to be, as the comet
of 1907 was distinctly seen.

caro- you going to the ball this even
ing % was query last evening that
found its response in tho assembling of
between fifty and sixty couples at Grant
hall, where the swiftly -fleeting hours were
tripped away to the inspiriting music of
Wash. Taylor's orchestra. The cool and
bracing air was conducive to tho full en-
joyment of the exhilarating sport, and the
p. T. S. c., under whose auspices the affair
was given, congratulated themselves upon
their fortunate selection of an evening.
The promenade took place at half-past ten
and daucing was maintained far into the
little hours. Nothing occurred to mar the
pleasure Of the occasion, the management
having provided against obnoxious intru-
sions by issuing invitations. The ladies
were fair, the gentlemen gallant, the music
excellent and tho dancing graceful. To
the efficient direction of tho following
named young gentlemen may be ascribed
in large measure the success of the affair !;

The Shiffler fair again had a large crowd
last night. The Humane fire company
attended in body and they turned out

more clear than that this duty should be
greatly reduced. The reduction is need
ed now especially, to protect us from the
imposition of the extravagant prices de-
manded for rails. After a while, and no
great while either, when the steel pro-
ducing capacity of the country becomes
greater than the steel consumption, the
duty will be of less consequence !; for
the competition then between the
steel producers for orders will serve to
bring prices down to a reasonable profit
over the cost unless the combination
now maintained among the Bessemer
mills will suffice in that emergency to
keep prices unduly high. But combina-
tiOns such as these do not stand the strain
well when there are not enough orders
for the product to keep all the maws
full. The selfish instincts of those W no
seem to be a lovely band of brothers
when their bellies are full make sad havoc
with their lovely relations when they get
very hungry and the food don't 60
around. There will be hard times for
these fat Bessemer mills when the coun-
try fails to take their immense product
and then there will be cheap rails for the
railroads. Our ambitious friends who
banker to build new roads would do well
to wait for the good time coming when
they will be able to iron their roads for
half the cost of to-day and they won't
have to wait very long, we think.
