A MOnstrOus Progeny.

Perhaps no more striking illustra-
ton of the wonderful reproductive
powers of certain insects could be
given than that contained in a new
work by Mr.. Theodore Wood, an Eng
lish entomologist. 1t is assumed, first,
that 1000 aphides weigh no more
collectively than single grain; and,
secondly, that only very stout man
can weigh as much as 100000
grains. Then it is found that, if null
tiplication were entirely unchecked,
the tenth brood alone of the descend
ants of single aphis would be equiv
alent in point of actual matter to more
than 100000, 900 of very stout men-
or one-third of the human population
of the globe, supposlng each person
to weigh $50 pounds.

Determining Tree Ages.

After careful study of the sub
ject, Professor. P. ID. Penhallow con-
cludes that the formation of the so
called "annual rings" of growth in
trees is chiefly determined by what
ever operates to produce alternating
periods of physiological rest and ac-
tivity. In cold elm ites the rings are
an approximately correct, but not
always certain, index of age. In
warm climates, however, the rings are
of no value in this respect, as the
growth is more likely to mark Pc
Rod of rainfall than the yearly hot
season of summer.

Efforts are being made, bv ar

-EHortS are being made, by an
agent sent to Salt Lake for the
purpose, to sell one of the largest of
the Hawaiian islands to the Mormons.
The island contains more than mil
lion acres of good land. Suppose this
sale were to be effected, and the pc
lygamous Mormons of Utah, Idaho
and Montana transported hence.
What would be the result? Why, if
the Hawaiian Government permitted
these people to rule themselves, there
would be no Mormon church or Nor
monism among them in so years.
They would have no use for any re-
ligion. The entire male portion
would become barians, living in
all possible luxury, with the women
no longer wives, but the most abject

One of the most interesting of the
political exiles who have made England
their home is Prince krapotkin. The
Prince lives at Harrow, supporting him
self and his wife solely on the proceeds
of his writings. for his estates have been
confiscated, and his wealth has disap-
peared az completely as if 1t had been
swallowed up in a quicksand. He IS
the most gentle, affable, and unassum-
ing of men, bearing his poverty with
resignation, and freely displaying his
stores Of learning and culture for the
benefit of his friends. Some time ago
his brother. who has taken no part in
politics, was condemned to spend the
rest of his days on the shores Of the
Arctic Ocean. He was 2. man who spoke
five European languages. and was
retiring scholar of amiable disposition.
As soon as his sentence was comunicat-
ed to him he shot himself His only
crime was that he was krapotkin.

Mr.. Randolph fuckers argument
against the bill establishing a Depart
ment of Industries, says the New York
SIM, with a 'abinet officer ant the head of
it, puts clearly the constitutional obiec-
tions TO that scheme. We have War
Department. not because war is more
important than agriculture and other
peaceful industries. but because the Con
Stitution gives power 10 Congress to
raise and support armies, and to the
President To command them. We have
a Post Office Department because power
Is given by the Constitution to establish
post offices and post roads: and so on
through the other departments that now
exists. The Constitution gives to the
Federal Government no power, no con
troll, over agriculture. aud there is no
reason for an Agricultural Department,
as branch Of the Executive.

The result of the Mayoralty election in
Boston shows that n signature To a petit
ton asking a man to be a candidate
does not always mean a vote. Mr.. Nc
Neil. the Labor Candidate, followed the
lead of Henry George in demanding that
his candidacy should rest on a solid
foundation Of pledged votes, fixing the
minimum limit al 1000. He seems only
To have pOIIed about half that number.
and it may be taken for granted that he
is disguised with politics in general and
with labor politics in particular. AS
Mayor O'Brien. who was reelected by a
good majority, has proved an admirable
municipal executive, there will be few
beside the defeated candidates and their
Immediate henchmen, who will deplore
the result. The small labor vote cast in
dictates very clearly that the labor party
as a separate organization is not attain
ing any serious proportions outside of
New York City.
