PIE, which is one of the best agricultural
counties in the State, located close by Cleye-
land and other large towns. and possessing
almost unlimited facilities of railroad trans-
portatioD, shows decline in farm land
values from SIC, ,42s, 600 in 1880 to $4,000
600 in 1890. The decline in the market yalue
of these lands has been from $12 to SEQ an
acre.
In New York city the average oonsump-
tion of water per capita is one hundred gal
Ions day. In London, although the supply
10 maintained by private companies, the ser
vice is through meters, and the average daily
amount used per capita is about thirty-five
gallons. In Providence, R. l., the beneficial
effects of meters in checking the wsstsful
use of water are apparent, Tor the average
daily consumtion during 1889 was ., ,7ss, s81
gallons, or a consumption per capita of
about forty-four gallons per diem. There
are few cities 80 generally equipped with
water meters as Providence; for, of the to-
tai number of 14,2S3 service stops in opera
tion at the beginning Of the year, s.627 ser
vices were through meters.
N. Trajanowski, Polish chemist, has dis
covered what he claims to be substitute for
gum arabic, by boiling one part of haxseed
with eight parts of dilute sulphurio acid In
eight parts Of water until the mixture, which
at first thickens, becomes quite fuid. The
compound is then strained through muslin
and four times its volume of strong alcohol
| is added. The precipitate, after being FL
tered, washed with alcohol and carefully
dried, produces clear gum devoid of all
taste or odor. Thirty grains, IT is said. are q
sufficient emulsion for an ounce of cod liver
oil. The value of this invention will, OF
course, depend on how far this new article
can be relied ON as substitute for the origi.
| nal, and the cost at which It can be produced
for the market.
Probably the most extraordinary surgical
operation on record is reported from Paris
DR.. Lannelongue, an eminent specialist in
the Children's hospital, has just succeeded in
the effort to give intelligence to poor little
idiot. The child, little girl 4 years old had
. deformed head, only about one-third the
size of an ordinary little one of her age. She
never smiled, never took notice of anything,
and she could neither walk nor stand. The
doctor became convinced that the condition
of the little creature was due to the abnor-
NAL nsrrowness of the head, which hindered
the natural growth of the brain. About the
middle of May last he made long and mar
row incision in the center of the skull and
out portion out of the left side of it, with
out injuring the dura mater. The result oi
this operation was something astounding
In lest than q month the child began Il
walk. Now she smiles, interests herself In
everything around her, and plays with a doll
A tolerably bright little child has taken tn
place Of the idiot.

A PUBLIO SCHOOL UNION.

PUBLIC SCHOOL UNION.
One of the latest Boston notions, and
good one 1t is, is the Citizens Public School
union. It is the stated object of that union
''to aid In securing for every child suitable
intellectual, moral and industrial education,
free from the injurious influences of political
and religious controversies" Therefore. the
school committee must represent all the citi-
Gems of Boston, and not, as has happened
since the Roman Catholic influence secured
the dismissal from the schools of Swinton's
history, that not only Roman Catholic can.
didates for the committee, but also those
Protestants who had taken part in that &C.
ton, should be singled out for defeat. The
Citizens Public School union refuses to ad-
NIT to membership any person "who will re-
fuse to vote for a Catholic, or for person of
any other faith to become a member of
the school committee, provided such per-
son is believed to be loyal to the public
schools and otherwise suitable for the
position" That is, 1t desires to retain the
cooperation in the work of the public schools
of those Roman Catholics who profess an
interest in that work, who do not join with
the bishops and the priests in insisting on
paroohial schools, but who do want their re-
ligious principles respected in the conduct of
the schools.
1t is interesting to note that the committee
at large of this society is wholly made up Of
women. It comprises these: DR.. Salome
Merritt, Misses Elizabeth c. Putnam, Isa Z.
Gray Lsyins A. Hatch Alice Stone Black
well and Mary E. Noyes; Mrs. Ellen s. Hale.
Sarah A. P. Dickerman, Judith W. Smith,
Sarah w. Whitman, Lydia E. Hutchins and
| Frances A. Billings. The pamphlet commit
tee includes Martin Brimmer and General
Francis A. Walker, besides DR.. Merritt, Miss
Putnam and Mrs. Billings. This pamphlet
committee has issued several tracts.

WHAT the Now York Papers Say.

What the New York Papers Say.
The Tribune shows a good spirit. 1t
says:
"St. Louis and Washington were never
in the race but the East had supposed that
tho metropolis was going TO win. Possibly
we suffered from over-conhdence; but,
whatever the cause OF our discontinue. we
have been handsomely and thoroughly
beaten, and we DO not propose 10 cry about
it, We offer our most cordial cOngrai ula-
tons to the prize winner and do not even
ask her TO moderate her transports"
The Herald styles PLATT the cacolemon
of our State politics." Otherwhcreit says e:
1--WE extend TO the city of Chicago our
hearty congratulations without "a thOrny
point IN them.
"She has won the Worlds Fair, and it
only remains for us to express the hope
that 1t viii prove an entire success. and to
offer the earnest cooperation Of New York
TO make 1t SO.
Our worst wish for Chicago is that
since she has been honored with the
Worlds Fair she may do herself honor IN
its successful conduct
The World grumbles at "the treachery
Of PLAT" and at the southern congress-
men who were "over-persuadcd" to vote
for Chicago. 1t closes rs follows:
Nevertheless, if 1t shall be decided to
hold fair in 1892 let IL be our duty to
labor for its success. Patriotism demands
this. New York city has been cruelty and
uniustly dealt with by her neichbors of the
East 1t may be necessary TO remember
the facts, but if far shall DE held III Chi
cago in 1892 let us all do what we can to
make it worthy of our great republic. The
undertaking will need all the encourage
ment that IL can secure along the seabOard."
The Times makes it hot for PLATT. 1t
says he was ready enough TO sacrifice New
York's interests and tTample upon its peo-
pies wishes if no could carry any point Of
his own thereby. 1t prouounces President
HARRISON n western man of peculiarly
narrow and provincial type, and politi-
clan who has not conception or an as
piration above partisan and personal adj
vantage. The Times concludes as follows
"The thing is not settled There may
be nothing called Worlds Fair at all, or
the Senate NAV yet insist upon having 1t at
Washington. But we sincerely hope that
Chicago will DO allowed to hump itself
and get up tho biggest show IL knows how.
IL II does not accomplish much for the
progress and glory OF the country 1t may
contribute TO the gayety Of nations and
afford measure Of the relation between
Boosting aud performance. Chicago ought
not to be let of now"

TH,r JUDICIAL DECISION IN MONTANA
In our telegraphic columns II was stated
Yesterday that the decision Of the District
Court in Montana was in favor Of the De-

cincts. including representatives to the
Legislature and virtually decides So, the &c
rights of the Democratic senators now IN

But will the Republican rascals in the

decision? We doubt.

A senatorial SYNDIcATF--A Washington
letter in the Alexandria GazGt'e Of Monday
SAYS:
"A syndicate of senators who got an OPP
ton on six millions worth OF cityproperty.
hoping tho fair would be held here. are
considerably down-hearted at this hour at
the bad prospect of the frultion OF that
hope"
If Mr.. CHANDLER wishes to set on foot an
important investigation let him try his
hand upon this senatorial syndicate.
When the question of the locality Of tho
Worlds Fair shall come up in the Senate
for action how will these six senators vote ?
VIII they say they no longer have an OPP
ton Oh the land mentioned? VIII they be
impartial? Will they not vote against Chi
cago because Chicago's success caused
their option to be worthless!
