The wasteful Machinery OF Elections.
The people Of the United States have q
happy faculty Of deluding themselves with
the idea that their machinery Of govern
ment Is inexpensive. They point with
pride to the fact that the judges Of the
courts. and the executive and Legislative
officers Of the country, cost less in actual.
salaries than officers performing corre-
spending functions in Europe. But what
is lost sight Of in this boast IL the enor-
mously wasteful and expensive machinery
Of elections which has grown up side by
side with American Office soaking, the cost
Of which, added to that arising from the
waste and corruption Of inefficient and
party service and to the expense Of our
ostensibls official organism, makes the
whole outlay to tho people Of the United
States many times moro than what the
like services are performed for in other
countries. So that while there u a seeming
saving there - In fact . frightful waste,
which must always exist when the actual
machinery Of domination, which ultimates
~ produces tho result, y hidden and irro.

MINNEAPOLIS, Oct. ga number Of
carpenters and painters were at work on
the new Central Baptist church this
morning. About 8 o'clock the scaffold
on which five painters were standing
gave way and the men were preoipitated
to the ground. All were severely in
jured. j. j. Jones was taken to the hos
pital with several ribs broken. He is
married and has two children. NJ. G.
Thorning sustained q sever blow Q
the temple and was badly shaken up.
Andrew Oleson was severely bruised
about the head and on his right side.
Erick Youngren was badly, but not seri-
ously, bruised. The fifth man, whose
name IL sunnet, was severely shaken mp.
Responsibility for the accident rests with
the carpenters who erected the staging
upon which the painters were working.

Facts About Worms.

Facts About Worms.
Worms are very interesting animals"
remarked q friend who has given some at
tention to the subject.
1.-THE worms We used to 60 fishing with
when We were boysi"
eyes, they will do a. a type. The COM
mon earth worm Is covered with bristles,
which in reality are in the form of re
curved hooks. These hooks extend from
head to tail, and may be felt by pulling
the worm backward through the fingers.
1.-THE mouth Of q worm Is placed In the
second segment, near the apex Of the body.
Worms feed on earth, filing themselves
with Q generous supply thereof, for the
sake Of the nutritive particles contained
therein. The common belief is that II you
cut q worm in two the separate parts will
grow into worms. This IL not strictly true.
Worms are propagated from eggs. To cut
q worm in two means that the hinder seq
ment will die, the forward part live"
"What are those little horse hairs found
in pools and cree1si The boys call them
worms and snakes. What are they in real
ttyi"
: ''They ara what ars termed round
worms., The round woem Il Q remarkable
animal. II begins li6s = . larva in mud or
in q water pool. When we'll developed It
becomes aquatic. Nmultapdes very rapid
II, % rapidly in fact that many people say
sc rainsd worms.' Il you cut one Of these
weighing worms into . dozen parts the
probability u that each separate part will
live. "-Detkodt 1fee PEe0.

typographical Blunders.

ypOB11p01c8 01u0Q0fDs
Sir Arthur Helps was. I think, oversen-
sitive to adverse criticism, of which he
had perhaps not enough to allow him to
grow callous to 1t, and the least misprints
in his own books or articles annoyed him
exceedingly. There was q passage from
his Organization in Daily Life, in which,
speaking Of vultures gathering to their
prey, he had used the virgilian phrase
obscene Birds" which had been misprint-
ed Obscure birds" The mistake wa not
noticed by any Of several persons who read
the proofs in succession, and I remember
that his gratitude was quite elusive when
his attention was called to the word Just
a the book was being sent to press. J.
After all. the blunder was not q serious
one, and was nothing like that Of the lady
traveller who wrote that the "whole will
derness was filed with erratic blocks"
and who, failing to revise her proofs, found
that the printers had taken on themselves
to correct her geological expression, and
chat she was made to assert that 'the
whole wilderness was filed with erotic
blacksl'-The Academy.

A Company Formed to Establish . Fir

A Company Formed to Establish . Tin
Plate Mandatory in Chicago.
CHICAGO, Oct. 7.-The Illinois Steel
company will engage in the manufacture
of tin plate in Chicago. II will have an
extensive and costly plant Tor this pur-
pose, to be established at an early date.
Probably English and eastern capital
lists will have an important interest in
the new business. About the enterprise,
q reporter yesterday talked with o. w.
Potter, who is enthusiastic concerning
the venture. He is q director in the
steel company and was president of it's
predecessor, the North Chicago Rolling
Mill company. ~ think I can safely
say," declared Potter, 'that within eigh-
teen months TIN plate will be manu-
featured in Chicago by our company"
evil the manufacture Of tin plate here
be practicable and proftable?" en-
tirely So The steel company with its
works will be able to roll steel as thin as
tin plate, and now that the tariff is so
high as to make it secure in the new
enterprise, there's no reason why it
should not go ahead at h3Elossrliest pos
sible moment. A large prets e,rtion Of
the work would be done by machinery
in place of by hand, as il is done in
Wales" "You regard it then, as an m
portant enterprise" "Very. Why,
there are between $4,000 and 100000
tons Of tin plate used in this country
every year and not q pound of
it is manufactured here-more ton
age than steel rails used by rail-
roads. To be exact, there are 100000 tons
consumed annually and Chicago could
manufacture every pound used in the
United states" The Illinois Steel COM
pany is q consolidation of the North Chi
cago Rolling Mill company, with q roll
ing mill at North Chicago, South Chica-
go and Milwaukee, and the Joliet Steel
company. It is q corporation with abund-
ant capital and extensive plants. Tin
ore is now being mined in the Black
Hills in large quantities, and at the pres
ent rate there will soon be enough tin
plate product above ground to supply
the United States with all the tin plate il
can use. The Eta Mining syndicate
and the Harvey Peak Tin Mining com
pany, with all their vast claims in the
Black Hills, have united and formed
what will hereafter be known as the Con-
solidated Tin Mining company Of the
united States. The company has now
bought up 100000 worth of claims.
OF the entire Black Hills district, which
covers about 60 by $50 miles, it holds
perhaps twenty-five square miles. Ithas
an army of men at work in the mines,
with a pay roll of $4,000 per month.
The ore is hauled to Rapid City, where
it is converted into pig tin. Branches OF
the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy and
other railroads will soon be extended to
the mines.

FARGO, N. d., Oct. 6.-Injunctions
were served some time ago on the saloon
men to stop the sale of liquor. and the
matter was argued before Judge McOon-
nell as to whether the injunction should
be made perpetual or not. To-day Judge
Mcconnell rendered decision modifying
the original injunctions in that he allows
the sale of liquor in original packages.
The city council took action this evening
looking towards the issuing Of some sort
of license to such houses. ..

South Dakota's Survey Appropriation.
HURON, s. D., Oct. 8.-Surveyor-Gen len
eral Sullivan says that none Of the $40,-
600 appropriated by congress for the sur
veyor-general's Office for South Dakota
will be available before spring. The
amount is $2O,OOO more than was allowed
the Office last year, but it is too late to
be used for surveying the present season,
and is none too much to carry on the
work necessary to be done in conse-
quence Of the vast area Of lands recently
opened to settlement and those already
taken by settlers and not yet surveyed.
The appropriation is appreciated and
will be used in the most economical and
iudicious manner possible.

The President at aalesburg.

GA1EsBuRa, Ill, Oct. 8.-After the
public reception, review and speeches,
President Harrison laid the corner stone
of Knox college. In the afternoon a re-
union of the First brigade, the presi-
dents old command, was held in the OPP
era house. To this it was found impera-
tive to admit only the old veterans and
their immediate families, and eve then
the opera house was almost inadeqate to
the occasion. President Harrison was
escorted from the hotel to the scene of
the reunion by q committee headed by
Gen. Daniel Dustin, United States SUBJ
treasurer of Chicago and formerly colonel
of the 1O5th Illinois infantry. The ap-
pearance of President Harrison on the
stage was the occasion for an outburst of
cheers from the assembled veterans that
made the very walls tremble. General
Dustin then called the meeting to order.
After the applause had somewhat SUBJ
sided President Harrison addressed the
veterans of his brigade. At the conclu-
sion of the presidents remarks the ap-
plause brought General Dustin to the
front and that gentleman spoke briefly,
after which the president announced his
desire to ahaka each member Of his for
mer command by the hand. After ad-
journment the veterans moved to the
stage, one by one, and grasped the pres
ident's hand. The president was then
driven to the hotel where he retired to q
private room until 6 p. m. This evening
the president attended a banquet given
by the Phi Delta Theta society at Col
lege hall, and later a banquet given by
the First brigade at the First Christian
church. A committee from the Ottumwa,
Ia, corn palace arrived to-day to escort
the president there tomorrow.
