VOICE OF THE PRESS.

New York sun: We do not believe
that President Arthur wants second
term. But if he did want it, he wouli
know better than to depend upon the
votes of delegates from Democratic
States for his nomination. Gen.
Grant had good many such delegates
at Chicago, and their votes merely
served to affect the geographical dis
tribution of certain medals. Arthur
is not that sort of a man.
Evening Journal: The fact that the
tough element have got the upper
hand in Chicago is shown by the fact
that a state senator deemed it prudent
not to resent the insult when spat
upon by the gambler Mike Mcdonald.
HeTemembered Jere Dunn's acquittal,
and knew that Mcdonald could shoot
him down with impunity and no fear
of the gallows. If the toughs continue
To load it over peaceable citizens,
violence committee will be the final
outcome.

sing at the same moment in different
sections of the city-proves either that
the doctrine of chances has suddenly
become worthless or that we are affiic-
ted with a gang of miscreants who
need prompt hanging in order to- in
duce a reform. Ii is not possible
that the experiences of the past two
days and nights could have resulted
solely from accident, for if accident
can account for such procession of
CONGREGATIONS then there is virtually
no safety whatever in owning property
that can be burned. Ii belOoves the
police TO do some of its best work
until this mystery is cleared up, and
if an example can be made of even
one scoundrel who is responsible for
an incendiary fire we may hope for a
speedy end to the present disgracefnl
record. Meanwhile the highest praise

lnjinga, one of the very loftiest peaks
of Inc globe.
Two successful aerial trips have
been made by Mons. Pompeiu with an
elongated balloon, and on the second
ascent change in the course of the
air-ship was obtained by simply
moving a rudder with which it had
been provided.
Some experiments noticed by DIR. a.
j. Wall indicate that the bite of the
American rattlesnake is far lsss deadly
than that of certain snakes found in
other parts OF the world. In four fatal
cases Of rattlesnake poisoning i'll dogs,
the animals survived for an average
period of about two hours and half
after being bitten and at least five
dogs experimental upon recovered
completely.~~ The dogs bitten 10y the
Indian cobra all died within all aver
age period Of less than thirty-tive
minutes and those poisoned by the
hoploccphalus lived only
one hour and twenty-four minutes.

are very rare, IA severe earthquake

WHALEBONE.

Aside from its oi-yielding properties,
the whale also serves mans needs by
furnishing him with whalebone. This
was once an important article of com
MERGE, but the supply and demand have
for many years been diminishing. The
fact is the whale does not live Gin the
North sea" rs much as he once did, and
the decline In the New Bedford oil bust
ness Is reflected In a measure in the
whalebone industry. As the supply fell
off substitutes for the article were dis
covered. Steel takes the place of whale
bone In umbrella manufactures, and the
latter now finds its chief uses in the max
ing of whips and corsets.
The preliminary preparation of whale
bone Is about as follows: When the
raw bone is received the hair is first cut
from the slabs. These are then soaked
In water until they become soft, after
which all the gum which adheres to them
IS removed b7 scraping. They now go to
steam box, where workman straight
ems them with a knife. After polishing
they are ready to be worked up into
various forms. There are certain places
where it is probable that no known ma
terial answers so well as whalebone, and
it IS said that fortune awaits the inven-
tor who devises an efficient substitute
for it. Experiments, looking to this
end, have been made with rawhide.
Since the decadence of the hoop-skirt
fever the price of whalebone has de-
clined very materially, but the price was
at its zenith in the last century. The
Dutch formerly obtained 50, 500 a ton
for whalebone, but since 1853 it has
never commanded such high figures. In
1918 the price was $3.50; in 1884, from
$3.50 to S545 and in 1871 it ranged be-
tween 81, $50 for Southern to 81, $50 for
Northern bone. We learn that in the
upper jaw of the whale are thin, paral-
lei lamlna, varying in size from three
to twelve feet in length, and that these
are what are known as "whalebone.
The quality which commands the high
est price is about six feet in length, and
is called "size bone" It is said that
the Greenland whale furnishes the best
bone. From the mouth of these huge
creatures from 1000 to 3, 900 pounds are
often taken.-.Scicgatifc american.

he now has no need for assistance.

FEEDING DAIRY STOCK.
One of the most serions evils that
beset the calling of the Gairyman, and
which should be most studiOusly
avoided, is that of scant feeding of
breeding stock. Owners of fancy
stock worth a mint of money usu-
ally do things about right. 1t is the
herds of ordinary breed stock where
injury is most apt to result from
course of >emi-starvation. The deprl-
vatiUn, 10 any, even The smallest ex-
tent, of the Necessary food for main
tanning such animal in good health and
in the best condition of growth
results in permanent injury. A
dairy animal, if she is breeding,
should be kept in good condition and
be provided with sufficient nutrition |
for the development of her offspring. |
And again, while such an animal is |

..Svenska Folkets Tidning," the
Swedish paper Of Minneapolis, speaks
of the political situation as follows:
There are, among the Swedes of this

that would be fully competent to

maintain their position as against any
other candidates. The Norwegians
have for long time had represent

The liberality and enterprise of Bis
r,ark has been rewarded by the
Dakota commission i'll locating the
capital at that place. Geographically
it is as near the center Of the territory
as any formidable competitor. Should
the territory be divided it will answer
admirably for the capital of the north
half; while, if no division is made it
will be easily reached by all parts of the
future state with its present proper
tions. Bismalk is now bound TO boom
and it will soon be found that they can
well afford to give 800, 200 the amount
of their bid for the capital. She has
a good commercial position. Her re-
sources great and varied. Both the
Milwaukee and Northwestern roads
will at once push their southern lines
forward to the new capital. This
decision of the capital commission
will go far toward making Bismark
one of the principal cities of Dakota.
