Death Of Ralph waldo E0ersoR.
Ralph Waldo Emerson, whose bodily
condition has for some days past been
. source Of anxiety to his friends and to
tho public, died 1t Concord Thursday
evening. He was born at Boston on
the 25th of May, 1903, and was conse-
quently ut the time Of his death nearing
the close Of his 10th year.
He graduated from Harvard College
in 1921 without having won any notable
collegiate distinction, and for i've years
after leaving college was engaged In
keeping school. In accordance With
his fathers wish he prepared himself
for the ministry, and in March, 1929,
| was ordained co. pastor with Henry
Ware, of the Second Unitarian church
of Boston, being the eighth in success.
sion of a direct family line Of ministers.
Three years previous Independence of
Thought began to show itself. His
views of the Lords supper did not agree
with those of his cong regation, and he
asked to be relieved from his charge.
Soon afterward he sailed for Europe,
and returning after years absence
began his career As o lecturer,by which
during the next seven years he was
very actively and successfully occu.
pied.
The publication of "The Deal" was
begun in the year 1910, anil during the
last two years Of its brief existence was
under Mr.. Emerson g editorial manage
ment. In 1S41 the first series of his
ESSAYS" appeared, and was followed
by the second series three years later.
His Essays on Representative men
was published in 1850, and the :" Me-
moirs of Margaret Fuller Ossoli' in
1852. Other of his works appeared al
follows L" English Traits" in 1856.

Day and other Pieces" volume OF
poems in 1867, and Society ana Soil
tude" in 1870.
He has also been frequent contribu-
tor the Atlantic Monthly down to a
late day. Mr.. Emerson has long been
recognized as the most original and
profound of American thinkers, aud
there is no one to fill his place.

Tho Reform meeting last evening
was . gathering Of very respectable
citizens, who arc no doubt anxious to
have good government, and would be
glad to see the offices Of the city filled
with men of character. We doubt,
however, II these estimable citizens
will accomplish much Of . reform by
organizing themselves into little CO.
terie ofrespectability with all the rest
of tho world shut out. "Lord bless me
and my wife, my son John and his
wife, us four and no more" we trust
will not be the character of the prayer
of the reformers. Seriously speaking,
though, why cannot those very eminent
gentlemen carry on the reforms they
seek in the respective parties to which
they belong? 1t is true that amongst
the great mass of voters they may NOT
notice their influence, but we are told
that "a little leavep lesveneth the
whole lump" and why cannot the
leaven Of honesty and reform, repre-.
scented at the meeting last night, be inn
planted into the political parties of this
city? In q little while it may also
move the whole mass. In looking over
those present there were none at the
meeting who could take an active part
in the primary meetings of their par
ties and by holding themselves aloof
have permitted the worst elements OF
their parties to triumph. 1t is impos.
sible to lift city government in char
acter above the average level Of society.
While our reform brethren, though few
in number, would lift the city govern
ment up on higher planes of morals
and honesty, a larger number will
unite in opposition, and their prepon,
derance will pull down the other side
to an average level. We would not,
however, say ought against any reform
measure, and hope that the meeting of
the Reformers, held last night,
will be a warniIg signal to the regular
old parties that they are watched and
their actions will be criticised.

in the Gents Furnishing Store of T..
Miller, No. 355 Sixth avenue, New
York City, has invested regularly in the
drawings of the Louisiana State Lottery
by sending to M. A. Dauphin, New
Orleans, La. He failed to get q ticket
in the February drawing, as he sent too
late, but received one in the March
distribution. He was laughed at by
his friends, but he offered to bet 500
that he would some day win a large
prize. Sure enough he found that his
was half of ticket No. 5000, which
had drawn $4,000. He collected 1t

"A novel method OF forming and
maintaining channel in the Mis-
sissippi has just been inaugurated
at St. Paul, as the head of naviga.
ton on that stream by way of ex.
pertinent in this country, and which
the inventor, NJ J. Adams, is con-
tident will succeed, he having ex-
pended 100000 already in develop.
ing his invention, which was pa.
tented in 1875. It has been used
successfully in several instances in
other countries. The following is
a brief description Of the machine
and it's workings:
=" The invention is nothing more
nor less than a hydraulic submarine
battery, consisting of tubing trian.
gular in shape, and arranged with
two chambers. The main chamber,
intended to contain the water with
which the battery is fed, occupies
the upper or wide part of the tube,
and takes up fully two.thirds Of the
interior space. The lower chamber
or narrow part Of the space forms
the battery, which consists of per-
forations four inches apart on oppo-
site sides Of the cone. Through
these perforations jets of water will
operate upon bars Of sand or other
deposits, displacing them and hold.
ing them in suspense until the nat
aral current Of the stream can carry
them away to seek some other place
Of rest, which will naturally be
sloughs and low places, thereby
forming banks in nearly straight
line, and shaping the river channel
similar to a canal by the introduc.
ton Of communicating cylinders at
intervals of 100 feet, which can be
opened or closed by means of drop
leaves on the outside, easily reached
and operated. The battery may be
used at any point where its services
may be required. Thus a channel
Of uniform depth can easily be
maintained. The design of Mr..
Adams is to lay a pipe in the center
of the river, in one unbroken length,
and operate it with powerful n.y.
draulic pumps, worked by steam,
stationed at the initial point. A
pressure of thirty pounds to the
square inch is to be maintained in
the main chamber, which in turn
will exert a pressure of fifteen
pounds per square inch upon the
lower or battery chamber. This
will provide jets of sufficient
strength to remove sand, mud and
even clay, and cut a channel to any
required depth. Mr.. Adams main.
tains that a single line of tubing
will create Of itself, without the as.
sistance of the river, beyond carry.
ing away the materials held in sus.
pense, a channel 200 feet wide
where navigable depth Of ten feet
OF water is sought. The invention
| which promises to accomplish sc
much and at comparatively trihine
expense is the result of six wears
