Popular Science.

Liquid obtained by condensing the
vapors from a bread oven contained
1-6 per cent. by volume Of alcohol,
0.06 per cent. by weight of acetic acid,
and a small quantity of ferric acetate
and of ammonia. Alcohol is, therefore,
according to Mousette, one of the prod
ucts OF the fermentation of the bread.
The Lancet thinks that there is dam
ger of breathing sewer gas from bar
bers' basins when being shampooec,
The danger is more likely to pass unob-
served because of the various odors
which scent the place and which mask
the deadly emanations. 1t is well to
bear this in mind, and ask the barber if
bis traps are in good order. so that the
bacteria or germs of disease may
not be inhaled from the ungarded
waste-pipe.
A recent traveller in Alaska, record
ing his observations in the proceed ings
of the Academy of Natural Sciences of
Philadelphia, says that on the north
west coast, as high as the mouth of the
Chinchat, in about latitude 60 deg,
he found trees of great age, though the
annual deposit of wood was not large.
This accords with the observations of
DR.. Brown, in Finland. In 1888 the
Russian Government planted some Sib-
erian larch in latitude 60 deg. 20. min.
Though 100 years have passed, they
are still in good health and are over
100 feet high. There, as in Alaska,
the growth increase is slow; for the
larches are scarcely twelve inches in
diameter, though so very tall.
From the programme of arrange
ments now settled for the international
forestry exhibition to be held at Edin-
burgh. Scotland, the actual result is
likely to prove of great practical and
scientific value. The exhibition will
cover wide field. Practical forestry
will include huts, implements, models
of machines for moving trees by land
and by water, and wood working ma
chinery of every description. Scienti
fic forestry will deal with the botany
of the forests, forest entomology, pre-
servative processes and similar sub
iects. Growing specimens OF rare
and ornamental plants, rustic work
and dried ornamental objects OF
vegetarian origin will be in veiw.

KANSAS LIVE STOCK.

Tire Growth OF Kansas According to Her
StatisticaI Agent---Fisttering Condition
of the staple Crops.
Mr.. j. M. Mcfarland. statistical
agent for tho state of Kansas, has just
completed the following report, which
he sends to the agricultural depart
tire amount of stock in Kansas, by
countes, up to January 1, 1884:
Hon. George Loring Comm 'ssioner of Aer.cuIt.
ure Washington, ID. O.:
SR-During tho year just past there
has been a larger increa.e in the num-
bers of farm animals in Kansas than
in any previous year. The adapta-
bilty of our soil and climate to the sue
cesstul prosecution of stock raising
has been well understood fact for the
past ten years, and the industry has
always had many active and indus
trious followers, operations being linz
tied only by lack OF capital. Not only
have He as a state every advantage
and aid that agriculture can give, but
we also have facility for marketing
our productions, lying. as we do, mid
way Of continent, with communica-
ton with extensive markets on every
hand. The years 1882 and 1888 proved
TO be exceptionally successful to the
farmers of this state. The four great
staple crops of wheat. corn, oats and
hay not only produced large average
yields. but were more extensive in
area than ever before. This of course
accrued to the benefit Of the agricult-
urist, and the long cherished plan of
better quality and increased number
of live stock, became easy of realiza-
tion. Tho increased wealth of our own
people is one of the reasons for the
large advance during the year in num-
'bers of stock. Another reason is that
capitalists CT both Europe and our own
country have be during the year in
vesting largely in Kansas, buying thou
sands of acres of wild land, fencing it,
erecting buildings and placing stock
upon l.. OF tho many large ranches
established in Kansas this year by in
corporated companies, the great ma
jority arc situated in the western pOr-
tion OF tho state. Bot several, some of
which embrace over 40, coo acres, have
been located in the eastern counties,
and the rich farm land. These latter
arc more properly styled ''stock lands, "
the prosecution of agriculture being
combined with stock raising. The two
successive large corn crops in this state
have induced breeders and feeders from
Othtr states, where this cereal
has not met with success in the
period named, to remove their
stock to Kansas, tho great abund-
ance of corn and the immense
areas OF fine pasture insuring cheap
and conveniont feed. There has been
large increase in numbers from this
cause. The immigration to Kansas
during 1888 has probably been larger
than any preceding year. This imml-
grafton was not only superior in poin,
of numbers, but was made up of much
better material than usual. The great
majority of them came TO Kansas not tC

first year for substance, but will

The Act to Protect smurcisru.

The act of June go 1874, for the protection
of smuggling, which congress innocently en-
acted, is we'll shown up by recent develop
ments in the treasury department. Atten-
ton was called by Mr.. Martin, the supervise
ing special agent Of that department, in his
valuation of imported merchandise, by means
(which the government is defrauded, honest
importers made to suffer by dishonest COM
petition, and homo manufactures deprived of
the operation of the protection intended to be
afforded them by the duties thus evaded. So
jealous were the friends of the smugglers,
whom the legislation referred to was framed,
that the criminals uniformly escape through
the provision thus explained by Mr.. Martin
in his report:
The most Objectionable part OF the act Is section
16which requires the actual intent to defraud the
revenue to be proven as a separate aud distinct
proposition. Where merchandise is entered by
agents on consigned invoices. however great the
differentiation, 1t Is impossible TO prove that the
consignee who made the entry had any guilty
knowledge thereof. The invoice is prepared by
the manufacturer or shipper abroad, and the con-
signee usually sets up the claim, which cannot be
disproved, that the only knowledge he has OF the
values is that furnished BY the invoices. In SUCH
cases the jures under the special instructions Of
the court, required to be given by section 16. In
variably find for the defendant, no matter how
clearly the fact of differentiation is established.
Tho smugglers carried the day in 1874 be-
cause they were such nice men, whose good
names were too sacred TO be named even
though some Of them had sworn before COM
IN ittce of congress that they were perjurers.

have industriously improved it, the govern
ment side should have a brief season, to
which end the law should be amended.

The Sandwich Islands.

The communication signed an in this
issue, on the troubles in Hawaii, is from q
gentleman of high character and large in.
formation on tho subject whereof he writes.
1t states something that should be under

fluence in Hawaii is gaining ground. The
weak king is being used by Claus Spreckels,
who has brought him in collision with the
seems in accord with Spreckels, speaks
through the government organ, the Aduer-
tiSer, and that journal advises defiance of the
supreme court. Following is its editorial on
the subjects.
There Is question involved in the case far
more important TO this country.than the currency
or the sale OF bonds. 1t Is this Can any all OF
the judges of the supreme court call in question

power the sooner 1t is amended the better for
everybody, and for nobody more than the judges
themselves. No similar thing was ever heard of
before in any country, whether its constitution
were monarchcal, oligarchical, or republican.
II is very dangerous power to put into the hands
of even such men as judges arc usually chosen
from. A judge acts but under NE kings commits.
sion! he is a subject of the realm and public ser

his judicial function is but that of substitute for
The king, to whom In theory oil appeals for justice
between subject aud subject are directed To say
that he shall sit in judgment upon the actions of
him from whom all his authority and Jurisdiction
is derived is absolutely absurd.
1.-THE king could be induced to subscribe
to such utterances as these of his own organ
and to act upon them, he would lose his
throne, if not his head. There is danger that
he may do it. The interest of the largo sugar
planters is not reliably hostile to English
influence, for the very good reason that
whenever o government can be erected in
Hawaii that would give the British govern
ment treaty under which coolies from British
East India could be imported into the
islands and protected by English con-
sular courts the labor supply there would
be drawn from that source The British
government will not allow these coolies to go
anywhere where they cannot follow them
with tribunals for their protection and the
enforcement of their contracts. This labor
problem endangers American ascendency in
the Sandwich Islands. Portuguese arc COM
ing there in considerable numbers under con-
tracts which include the support of their fam
lilies. The Chinese are also being admitted
to the extent of two hundred per month.
The importance of the Sandwich Islands as
favored naval supply station for tho United
States under treaty giving this nation ad-
vantages over others should be fully consid-
cred in shaping our future relations with their
government

A MOST unfortunate question Of vcraclty is
raised by the conflicting statements of Min
lister West and Mr.. Hewitt. A special to the
Philadelphia Press represented that after Mr..
Hewitt offered the resolution adopted by
congress in the ODonncll case he called on
Mr.. West and apoiogiaed saying in sub
stance his resolution meant nothing but
buncombe, and was to prevent the adoption of
one moro bolligerent in tone. Mr..
West, in published interview, confirms the
statements in the Press special, Mr.,
Hewitt, in New York interview, EN-
,-.Sa'ieally denies this, and says that, while
. did call upon Mr.. West, it was for purely
soc!al reasons, at tho time stated, and that,
in the course of some discussion that took
place concerning the O'Donnell resolution,
he enersetically Endorsed and defended it,.
1t is pretty evident somebody is mistaken.
The hanging, it will be remembered, came
of according to programme.
