bill to provide for IN inquiry into n ques-
tion which is not only Of great social i'm
portance, but touches as well commodities
which enter largely into the system OF tax
alton. The inquiry was to be made by
impartial pcrsons-persons OF preconceiy-
cd opinions, avowed Prohibitioniats, being
very properly excluded from the work.
There may be persons who do not want
any information gathered concerning the
traffic. They will not approve what Gen.

Making Screws.

The process of making screws is a
very interesting one. The rough,
large wire in big coils is, by drawing
through hole of less diameter than
itself, made the needed size. Then it
goes into a machine that at one mo-
ton cuts it proper length and makes
head on it. Then it is put into saw
dust and "rattled," and thus bright
ened. Then the head is shaved down
smoothly to the proper size and the
nick put in at the same tine. After
'rattling" again in the sawdust, the
thread is cut by another machine,
and after another 'rattling," and
thorough drying, the screws are as
sorted by hand (the fingers of those
who do this move almost like light
ning), crossed by weight, and packed
for shipment. That which renders it
possible for machines to do all this is
a little contrivance that looks and
opens like a. goose's bill, which picks
up a single screw at a time, carries it
where needed, holds it until grasped
by something else, and returns for
another. This is one of the most
wonderful pieces of automatic ma
chinery ever seen, and it has done its
distinctive work at the rate of thirty
one screws a minute, although this
rate is only experimental as yet.
Ninety-three gross a day, has been
the regular work of one machine

Future of the Dutch Throne.
Pail Mall Gazette

There has been goo& deal of mis-
apprehension as to what will happen
IN Holland IN regard to the succession
to the throne Ia consequence of the
death of the Prince of Orange. Yet
according to the best authority the
probability is that nothing special
or extraordinary will happen at all.
The articles of the Dutch Constitution
dealing with the case are extremely
simple. According to article XIV. it
is provided that when there is no
male issue of the house of Orage the
crown is tranferred to tie daughters
OF the King according to primogeni-
ture." This disposes of the curious
statement of yesterdays Observerthat
1.-The Salic law prevails in Holland"
1t is plain that the little Princess
Wilhelmine of Orange is heiress to
the throne of the Netherlands. In
the event of her death Article XIV
provides that eff there is no male
descending line of the last king, the
oldest female descending line will
inherit SO the male branch precedes
the female branch, and the elder
comes before the younger, and In
each branch males before females and
seniors before juniors" According
ly, the heir to the crown. in default
of the Princess Wilhelmine of
Orange, will be the grand duchess of
SAKE Weimar for the crown, accord
ing to the constitution, would be
transferred, rot to the grand duchess
of Sake Weimar, but to her house,,
and the Observer is again mistaken
in supposing that the duke of Nassau
is heir-presumptive. 1t is further
provided article XXXIV.) that the
sovereign of the Netherlands comes
of age when he or she has completed
his or her 18th year, and article
XXXV.) that as long as the sover-
eign is minor he or she is to be un-
der the guardianship of some mem
bers of the royal house and of some
distinguished Dutchmen. These
guardians are to be appointed CArticle
XXXVI.) by special act of the
Dutch legislature It is considered
certain that the queen of Holland will
be one of the guardians.
