When anything out of the o~rdinaryis
on the boards interest is revived. The
Scottish American Athletic Club is to
have a grand boxing and wrestling
tournament next Monday night at 'Oak-
land Rink. The entries closed last night
and the rooms of the club were crowded
with members seeking inside information
about the event and watching the men in
training.
Mr.. Tuthill was there and elated over
the prospective success of the tourney.
He said the entries would be of the
quality, not quantity, order, and two of
the events alone would be q sufficient at
traction to fill the house. The lberality
of the club, in offering handsome gold
watches as prizes, had brought letters
from several crack amateurs.

championship in the Special ~125rpound
class, and mas downed several of the tai
ented 115-pound boxers. He will meet

pionship in the came class at the tour
nament of the Amateur Athletic Union.
The men hnve never met to settle the
question which is the better man, but the
doubt will be settled next Monday night.
The Scots, of course, entertain the opin-
ion that Cahill is not only the best ma
teur, but is a superior man In the ring to
Dempsey.
Knowles, the 1876 pound cracker of the
Orange A. c., is also entered and will
meet such clever ones as Haley,

The law-abiding element OF Georgia
and Alabama is waging a vigorous
warfare against emissaries of the
Mormon church who have been a,
work in those states, and that, too,
with a considerable degree of success.
In the latter state they have made a
number of converts, not only among
the ignorant class, but numerous per-
sons of the more respectable element
have professed belief in the doctrines
of the slater day saints" and a de-
sire to embrace all the tenets OF that
faith, even to the plurality of wives.
The good people OF these states are
resolved that the Mormon preachers
must go, and will enforce their deter
mination by every means within their
power. Their task is no easy one, for
these enemies of morality and domes-
tic purity labor with zeal and deter
animation worthy OF better cause.

Electrical Census Machine.

One of the most recent uses to which
electricity has been put is described as
follows: The census collector will call
with his printed blank and answers TO
questions will be written in the usual
way. These sheets will then be placed
before "a person who operates ma
chine which may be likened to type
writer, except that instead of the usual
ink mark on paper small round holes
are punched in card. The cards, one
for each person, are about 81 inches
in length by 3 inches in width, and
the particular position of n hole in n
card indicates an answer to some one
OF the questions in the printed blank.
AS many as $50 items of information
can be punched out upon a card, al
though no one card would ever have
more than one-tenth part OF the whole
number; as, for example, no one per-
son can be classed as both white and
black, American and foreign born, and
IL foreign born he can only come from
one country. These cards when punch
ed are placed one at time in sort of
press and lever, operated by one
hand, is brought down when series
OF pins are brought against the card.
Whenever hole has been punched in
n card the corresponding pin passes
through into mercury cup beneath,
completing an electric circuit These
circuits, one for every hole, pass out
TO large number of counters which
operate electrically, and add upon
their dials all items OF the same kind
upon the same dials; as, for instance,
all white men upon a dial marked
white males; all business or profession
al people upon dials which indicate
their particular business or profession.
The cards, as they leave the press, are
all sorted by means of an electrical
sorting device, whereby they may be
separated into groups or States of the
Union. '-Pittsburg American Manu-

A number of the Hungarian miners
from the Connelsville, Pa, coke region
have returned to their native land, and
there are others who will go as soon as
they can obtain the necessary means
to pay their passage. It's ''good rid
dance to bad rubbish" 1t is these
Hungarians miners who have been re-
sponsible for the frequently recurring
strikes in this region, and whose OBJ
stinacy and ignorance have prevented
many willing and capable men from
returning TO work. 1t is good to have
them go, and still better to hav @
enough of them return to their native
home to act as deterrent to prevent
others of their countrymen from COM
ing to this country to usurp the places
of honest native laborers. Labor
troubles are not apt to occur where
the laborers are capable, law-abidin G
citizens, and ignorant, turbulent for
eigners certainly cannot be classed as
such. The losses to the mine-owners
themselves, to say nothing of the loss
and misery entailed upon the miners
and their families, should be prima
Jncie evidence to the owners that the
cheap (P) foreign labor is, to say the
least, very expensive and disastrous
experiment. 1t would be judicious
investment to pay the passage of all
of these foreigners to their homes for
the sake OF getting rid OF them.

a Shortage In Wheat.

The American wheat crop for the current
year will be about 5O0,0OO,0 0J bushels. or
about so, 00O, coon than last year. Under
ordinary circumstances this would mean
cheaper -four at home and large surplus to
carry over to next year, but there are short
wheat crops elsewhere. This shortage is
as follows: Russia. 72000,0O0; Hungary,
81, 0OJOO00; Roumania, 5000. 900; Germany,
5000 900; India, lS,0O,O0O, and South
America and Australia, $4,000, 900; total,
lG6,000,000. The increases are: United
States, s.. 900, 900; Canada, S,OOO,OO0 Eng
land and France, 1000, 900; Italy, Span,
Belgium, Holland and Algeria, 80, 600 coo (;
tot ii, l54, 100000 This shows the world
wheat crop to be l2,OOO,OO bushels less
than last year, and as the reserves are
lower than at that time, it seems quite
probable that the bulk of our surplus stock
will be needed for export.

The Late Mrs. Hayes.

During the war Mrs. Hayes now and
then went to 1.-THE 'front.' 10 visit her
husband, who was colonel OF the
Twenty third Ohio, says u Washington
letter to the Cleveland Leader. She
was an angel of mercy to the sick and
wounded, often passing days and nights
in ministering 10 their needs. She was
we'll known to all the soldiers OF the
Twenty third, and no favOrite general
ever evoked more tcmpestuous cheers
than did Mrs. Hayes when she appear
ed in the camp. Whenever the soldiers
wanted TO express their esteem for any
body they didn't lift their rusty old
hats and make graceful bows-they
just yelled.
At one time, while the Twenty-third
was laying in camp in western Vir-
ginia, squad of recruits joined the
regiment. One OF them thought Uncle
Sans tailor did't put pockets enough
in the soldiers blouses, and could not
be satisfied till he had another in his
TO carry the gimcracks which every
veteran despised but which he had not
yet learned TO do without. The fist
day in camp he inquired Of the boys
where he could get it done. One of
the wags of the company sized him up
and saw at once good chance to have
joke.
Certainly" said he to the Hedging,
1--WE have a regimental seamstress for
doing just such jobs as that. There she
is" and he pointed to Mrs. Hayes, who
was sitting on n camp chair in front
of the colonels tent. Just take your
blouse right to her, and she'll do it up
brown"
The innocent recruit stall1ed boldly
up TO headquarters, threw off his
blouse, and handed it TO her, asking if
she would put in a pocket for him, re-
marking with patronizing air that he
would pay her we'll for it.
Col. Hayes, who was writing in his
tent, heard the young soldier and
came out Observing the new uniform
and fresh face he took in the situation
and his eyes twinkled with merriment,
but he said nothing, knowing his wife
was equal to any ordinary emergency.
"Of course l WILL" said Mrs. Hayes,
who was as quick as her husband to
"see through it. Come back in an
hour and I'll have it ready for you"
She set to work with scissors and
when the young patriot called for hi
blouse he found in it as nice a pocket
as his mother could have made.
"How much?" he asked, taking out
his pocket-book.
"Oh, nothing at all! was glad to
do it for you, and you are very
welcome"
While the soldier was expressing his
thanks Col. Hayes came out of the
tent and thought he would carry the
joke little farther.
do you know me, my man?" he
said, pleasantly, extending his hand to
the soldier.
The latter, somewhat abashed by
the official presence, said he did not.
We'll, my name is Hayes, and | am.
the colonel of this regiment. Allow
me, sir, to introduce to you my wife"
The young man retired in great cou-
fusion-but he had the pocket in his
| blouse that he wanted.

Robert Browning was born in 1912
in Camberwell, Surrey, and was
educated at the university of London.
At the age of 20 he went 20 Italy,
which country had great influence
upon him, and ever since Browning
has been an authority upon music and
painting. His first attempt in poetry
was Pauline" a dramatic poem pub
lished in 1885. For all his eccentrici-
ties OF style, he did not have to wait
long for an audience or for even a
considerable share of popular appre-
citation. AS long back as in 1858 we
find in Dana's Household Book of
Poetry" not fewer that IL of Brown
ing's pieces. In fact, in America he
from the first had band of admirers,
and some contend that Browning, like
Carlisle. won his first most valuable
recognition in this country.

Where They Rear Girls in Cages

In the report of United States
Consul Griffin stationed at Sydney, the
consul tells of a remarkable custom
of the inhabitants of New Britain, as
follows: The inhabitants, it is said,
by Wallace. have peculiar custom of
combining their girls in cages until they
are old enough to be married. This
custom is said to be peculiar to the
people of New Britain. The cages
are made of the twigs of the palm tree
and the girls are put into them when
only two or three years of age. The
Row. George Brown established a
Wesleyan mission in New Britain in
1876, and / learn from him that these
cages are built inside of the houses,
and that the girls are never allowed
to leave the house under any circum-
stances. The houses are closely
fenced in with a sort OF wicker-worlx
made OF reeds. Ventilation under the
circumstances is rendered very Diff
cult. The girls are said to grow up
strong and healthful in spite of
these disadvantages. -Pittsburg Dis
