TIE FACT that the bombardment
of Alexandria was heard through
the telephone at Malta, 1000 miles
distant, leads the New York Times
to predict that ia the very near fu-
tuseS by the further help of scienti-
6eMethods adapted to newspaper
correspondence, many marvellous
hings viii be presented in the col
simns of enterprising journalism
It suggests that one of these days
the telephone editor may sit at his
criptive of some Franco-German bat
desk in New York and write des
bic field. T'Tne sharp ping Of the
rife-ball is now being heard, and
the booming of the artillery, while
the rattle of sabres and the clatter-
ings from thousands of horses feet
presupposes that cavalry charge
is taking place. Now the sad moan
ings Of the wounded are becoming
most distressing, and cries for
water are constant. The infantry
are possibly getting the better of it
as the cheers Of victory are now,
quite distinct. Bursts of military
music can now be heard, mingled
with the cheers Of the men, From
the wide diffusion of tie sound it
is quite positive that a very heavy
engagement is now going on, over
an extended area. "A very loud ex-
plOsion just here has interrupted
the working Of the telephone
probably a shell which has just
burst in its immediate proximity"

Mr.. WALTON, the "plunger,"
who came back from England last
yeaT with so much money won
from British patrons of the turf, is
being investigated in New York as
to alleged crOokedness in racing
matters. Among other charges
was one Of bribery. MIR. Walton
replied to this that he never paid
jockey to lose a race, but had paid
them literally to win. He has
given riders $500 to bring their
horses under the line first, and
cannot understand what harm
there is in such a transac-
ti0n. Is is reflection upon
the honesty of jockeys who have to
be hired to do their duty, but where
in lies the immortality of the act of
hiring man to do what is right
and what the public expect him to
do ? 1t may be claimed that the
jockey who receives the $500 will
divide with another jockey provid-
ca the latterwill let him WIN. but
that would be bribery and criminal
whereas the "plunger's' act was
nothing more than an effort
to keep the man honest. It
is true, sporting people would
gladly pay Jockeys handsomely
for winning; in fact those who
stake money on horse races would
rather pay a rider for winning than
losing, and it would be much better
were this course pursued, instead OF
the more popular one of bribing the
riders to ''throw" races. MI. Wal
ten is worthy of praise rather than
ceRsure. 1t is hoped his rule will
be followed by others Of the frater-
atty, and that the money now spent
Ia bribery viii all go to the riders
who make their horses win.

knowledge THAT it is hotter

the mercury in the tube, but there
is a satisfaction in knowing that
others are suffering more than you.
1t is said that two soldiers, each
having a leg amputated at the same
time, actually smiled during the
operation, whereas if each had been
alone he wJuldlhave screeched with
pain. Here in Salt Lake we watch
the mercury rapidly climb in the

we think the heat oppression is ter
rible: but we read that New York

middle states cities lead Us by i've or
SIX degrees and at once
our Ownselves enjoy the
benefits of al imaginary fall of two
or three degrees in the temperature
of the atmosphere. 1t is rather dis
cOuraging. however, to carefully
note reliable and faithful thermome-
t4rs during the day, and find the next
morning that the official record
proves the temperature to have
been some degrees cooler than you
thought it was The fact of the mat
ter is there are two or three degrees
difference between, in the shade,
Ga the street and at the signal ser
vice station. Hot brick walls and
pavements Tadiate Leaf, whereas
the thermometer at the signal sta
ton is not exposed to anything but
direct atmospheric influence. 1t
registers the correct temperature of
the atmosphere, while if it were on
a shaded doOrpost or at any covered
place on the walk, within three or
four feet of the ground, it would
prove the temperature of the air in

haps three degrees warmer ian
that forty or fifty feet from the
ground, and which is pro-
tected by a bank of brick
walls never visited by the
suns rays. Friday and Saturday
were "hot" indeed, but as compared
with the burning heat in which
New Workers are sweltering and
dying, the temperature was almost
frigid. In this climate the heat is
not really threatening or dangerous
as long as it remains below 1909 F.
and to people who are acquainted
with the hot weather Of the middle
states cities and the river valleys, a
temperature here of $50 is rather
inyigorating than otherwise.

IN A review article President
Eliot, of Harvard, says that women
should not compete with men, be-
cause the weaker always 60 to the
wall. Women, he asserts, ought to
be content to make themselves the
companions of men. Abstractly the
proposition is correct and the advice
good, but will the learned doctor
please say what he would have the
large number Of women do who
are dependant upon their own labor
for living, and who cannot be con-
tent to be simply the companions
of men? He certainly would not de-
priVe them of the privilege of COM
peting with men in any of the oc-
equations that are suitable to both.
AS cOpyists, compositors, dry
goods clerks, telegraph operators,
and in other vocations women
are not only competitors of
men, but are successful in every
thing except the matter of pay
they are not paid as much as men
receive though they perform an
equal amount Of labor. a woman
should be barred from no occupation
suitable to her, because she is a
woman or for the reason that by en-
tering it she might become the COM
petitor of man. SO long as there
are women who are compelled to
work for a livelihood, they ought
certainly to enjoy equal chances
with the other sex; and a humane
society will expand IS rapidly as
possible the field of indus try open to
women.
