The announcement is made, by what authority of course is not ap- parent, that when the Worlds Fair traffic has reached a point at which interruption would mean paralysis, all the switchmen in the country and possibly some of the train hands, intend to strike. Whether the announcement is based upon reasonable grounds of credibility or rot, the possibility of such move is apparent, and the suggestion is enough to warrant serious appre- hension-Railway Review.

The colony of New Zealand, to the east of Australia, has joined hands with Wyoming, in the west of America, in conferring the suf- frage upon women. It is an accept ed generalization that colonies, when left to themselves, anticipate the political development of their mother countries, for the reason that they adopt the political insti- tutions suited to their own age, while the mother countries retain the institutions of a past age. This was certainly true of the Greek col onies, and both Americans and Aus tralians have been fond of boasting that Great Britain has followed the course of political development which we have marked out before.

The second son of the Czar. the Grand Duke George, continues his peculiar course of treatment for pulmonary disease. In accordance with his physicians theory that a low temperature tends to destroy the consumption bacillus and to prevent the growth of tubercles, the room of the royal patient is uapa- pered and bare, the mattress on his bed thin. and the fires moderate in the coldest weather. The progress of the disease is said to have check ed, but his attendants suffer ex- tremeIy from the cold,-Harper's Bazar.

The stopping of fifteen million spindles in the Lancashire cotton district is an event of most lament able consequences to many thou sands of operatives, but it comes at an opportune moment to aid in crystalizing the growing sentiment in England in fayor of bimetalism and bringing its influence to bear upon the coming Monetary Confer ence, For the trouble in the Eng fish cotton manufacturing industry is largely because of that demoral- ized condition of Indian exchange whose improvement waits upon the adoption of an international bime- tallic agreement.-Providence Jour- nal.

Notwithstanding their diminutive size pugnacity is one of the most conspicuous traits of humming- birds. Even kingbirds and the boldest hawks are afraid of them, being compelled to retreat before the lmpetuous assault of the tiny warrior, whose boldness is only equaled by the lightning-like rapid ity of his movements, thus baff1ing any attempt at resistance on the part ofthe more powerful adversary. The lance like thrusts of the needle like beak are usually directed at the eyes of an enemy. When two or more individuals of either sex happen near the same spot, spirited and often violent conflicts are al- most certain to ensue.-Boston Transcript.

The Nord-Kap, edited in Ham merfest, Norway, by P. Johansen, is the most northern paper publish ed. The house whence it issues is a small wooden one with an earthen roof, There is no telegraph office in the town, and the news, arriving by the not very numerous vessels landing at Hammerfest, has lost some of it's freshness, but is just as satisfactorYto the subscribers, many of whom, moreover, live a weeks journey from the town. Notwith- standing all these drawbacks a mem- Der of the staff of the Copenhagen Politiken, who recently visited MT. Johansen, found him an enthusias- tic, though not wealthy, member of the profession.-Public Opinion.

The telephone line between New York and Chicago is twice as long as any heretofore in use. Nearly a million pounds of copper were used in it's construction, and if used for twenty hours each day it will earn at the rate of $l4,000 per week. The ordinary tariff IS $9 for five min utes' conversation. The instru- ments used on it are so perfect that even a whisper can be successfully transmitted across the $50 miles. At present only about six five-min- ute conversations in each hour can be put upon long-distance circuit, as one-half the time IS consumed in establishing connections, making appointments, etc., for which there is no charge.-New York World.

Mrs .E p Brown Davis is con-

Mrs. E. P. Brown Davis is con- sidered one of the foremost mathe-
 maticians in America. Her early
 education was received in the pub
 lis schools of Washington, D. c.
 While teaching in that city she was
 graduated, as one of the night stu dents, from the Scientific School of
 the Columbian University. One of the first to recognize her talent was
 Professor Gore, who trusted to his
 wonderful pupil the work of read ing the proof sheets in his work on geodesy. The mention of this fact brought the young girl to the mo- tice of Prof. Simon Newcombe, who had just completed his calculus and
 wanted some one to read his proofs and verify his calculations. He at once engaged Miss Brown and was delighted with the way she did the work. About this time a vacancy occurred in the $1 200 position as computer in the Nautical Almanac Office, and Miss Brown entered the competitive examination in com pany with a dozen men, none of whom answered one-fourth of the questions. In less than the pre- scribed time for the examination, Miss Brown had answered every question and so successfully that the enthusiastic examiners marked her papers HOO X". A few weeks before her graduation from Colum bian University she had discovered and corrected an error in one of La Places tables that had for years resulted in inconsistencies puzzling to astronomers throughout the world. She had also invented and copyrighted the Washington Green wich table now used by the Govern ment, which is said to greatly facil- itate the work of the computers. On Miss Browns marriage she re- signed her position in the Nautical Office, but still keeps up her mathematical and astronomical work.-Public Opinion.

A Pittsburg physician explains how the worm gets into the chest nut. When the nut is still green an insect comes along and, hunting a warm place in which to have it's eggs matched, lights upon the green chestnut and stings it. At the same time it deposits some of it's eggs in the opening thus made. The chest nut begins to ripen and at the same time the eggs are matching. The in- sect selects chestnuts as place for depositing it's eggs1 as being the best adapted place by instinct. The f1oury matter in the nut turns to sugar and sugar contains carbon, which produces heat.-New York Tribune.

According to the report of the Japanese Cotton Spinning Mills Association thirty-four spinning mills, representing 324. 800 splndles, were at work during the first six months of the present year. During that period the quantity of yarn spun by these mills amounted to 41,138,791 pounds, giving employ ment to 5,420 men and 16,110 fe- males-Bradstreet's.

In Alsace there lives a species of reddish-yellow ants. These sally out at times in multitudinous hordes from their nests or ant-piles and attack the piles of some not far distant black species. Great slaughter then takes place, and when the black enemy has been dis persed, their pup@, or young-pop- ularly but wrongly called ant-eggs- are carried home as booty. The black ants which subsequently emerge from these pupe are then born slaves. They know naught else from their youth upward but that they have to serve their red masters, and they are educated and trained to minister food unto them. Imagine what is not necessary to such a task. So ::great, in conse- quence of this custom, do the ease and leisure of these slave-barons become, that they ultimately lose that most powerful of all animal instincts, the instinct of self-nourish- ment; as we know from the fact that they will starve to death by the very side of their favorite food unless one of their servants is pres ent to minister it to them.-Dr. Ernest Schroedtr, in Chic g Open Court.

Says Public Opinion: Aecordir

Says Public Opinion: According to reports of the United States sec retary of legation at St. Petersburg, the Siberian Railway will be com pleted within six years. The sec- tion of the railway between Chella- binsk and Omsk, to be commenced this year, will have length of 447 versts; and the expense of con- struction. including the rolling stock and two metal bridges on the Tobol and Ischim, is estimated at P, 2,333,0O0 rubles, which thus makes less than 30,O00 rubles per verst. Notwithstanding the economy with which this line will be built, it is nevertheless decided that the dis tance between stations shall not ex- ceed fifty versts. The trains will travel at the rate of twenty versts an hour.

An omnibus is run in the north of Yorkshire which carries first, second and third class passengers. A passenger, who saw the announce ment of this fact at the opposite end of the omnibus, wondered how this could be. When they arrived at the bottom of a hill, however, his curiosity was gratified. The omni- bus stopped, and the guard cried out: "First-class passengers keep your seats; second class passengers, get out and walk third-class pas sengers, get out and push"

Some wonderful results with re- gard to potato culture have been obtained by gentleman farmer in France. This farmer, who is also a distinguished chemist, has been, according to arecent consular report from Nantes, for some time past conducting experiments with pota- toes, with the remarkable result that he has succeeded in securing the enormous return of forty-two tons per acre. The plan he adopts is to carefully select the seed and to use only the best and soudest tubers. The ground is dug or plowed to a great depth and is we'll manured. Before planting the seed potatoes they are soaked for about twenty four hours in a mixture composed of saltpeter and sulphate of amo- mia, six pounds of each salt to twen- ty-ive gallons of water. After this soaking the tubers are allowed to drain, and they then stand for twenty-four hours longer, in order that the germs may have time to swell.-Chamber's Journal.

The Date of the Earliest Man.

Nodiscovery in geology or archa- ology in the last thirty years has at tracted more general popular inter est or led to hotter conflict and contest than the flint or stone i'm plements found first in the gravels of the French river, Somme, later in the Thames, and last of all in our own Delaware.
 The argument for the presence of man on the earth before the gla- cial period, or a matter of 100000 years ago or more, does not rest al- together on these implements; but they are it's chief prop and buttress, and wide fabric of scientific as- sertion and assumption has been reared on these little flint chips and cutting tools. NIT. John Fiske in his last history on the Discovery of America" reviews the evidence on the subject and reaches the conclu- sion that Dr. c. c. Abbott, to whom the Delaware discoveries are due, has clearly established by the re- mains he has found in the Trenton gravels the presence of man on this continent before the last glacial ice cap covered it.
 It has taken nearly thirty years of hot discussion to reach this con- clusioa, and vast scorn has been poured in the course of the wordy conflict on anyone weak enough to believe that man has been less long on the earth than urged on this the ory. The authenticity of these primitive relics of primal and pale olithic man has, however, barely been established and accepted and has begun to filter down among the established scientific commonplaces of the day, when it begins to be challenged. pr. Daniel G. Brinton, of this city, in the very admirable and lucid notes on anthropology he contributes to Science. notes that the study of these clipped flint fragments begins to show that they are not real flint implements at all, but only bits partially shaped and then thrown away because they were unfit for their proposed pur- pose, Consequently they would not "in any way illustrate the in- dustry of-the chippers, no matter what age they are."
 To the lay mind, engaged in sim- ply watching as spectator the con- fiicts and contests of science, there is something appalling in the pos sible collapses of all the theories and assertions built on these shape less bits of flint, argillite and other materials now treasured in muse- ums, and the sudden discovery that they are not in the least what they were supposed to be.-Philadelphia Press.

WILEY RGBUKED.


Up TO date Governor WILEY Of Idaho,
been making guy of himself all through
the Coeur d'Alene mining troubles. From
the very first he has shown lack of judg-
ment, utter incompetency, and official
cowardice, his series of blunders culmi-
mating the other cay in a demand upon the
president to send troops into the district to
preserve the peace. 1t should be borne in
mind that there had been no violence on the
part of the striking miners, that the law
had been carefully complied with; that the
power of the state to suppress local dis
turbance or Instruction had not been
tested, and that the civil authorities are in
absolute and undisputed control Of all the
machinery of government. We doubt that
any state executive has ever before dis
played such weakness and imbecility.
ldahos representatives In Congress, al
WILEY aad in sense responsible for him,
saw how ludicrous he was making
the state, and wired him that
it was their and the presidents opinion
that the situation was not such as to de-
mand the intervention of the federal au-
thority. Seldom has there been admins
tered such rebuke as this, though it is
doubted that WILEY will SO interpret it. He
is quite likely TO proceeded with his nom
sense until he does something SO outrage
ously bad that the resultant jolt will bring
him TO his senses.
Meantime the miners are are again ad-
vised to exercise caution lest they do some
thing which will give their enemy, the gov
ernor. an excuse for expressing them.
They are masters of the situation and will
remain SO as long as they keep within the
law and pursue the conservative course
they have followed during these weary
weeks of enforced idleness. The people
will take care Of WILEY and his hackers
next November.

makes friends readily. The president took
him up and made min collector OF customs
at New York less than year ago. Then
the Republicans OF the state nominated
him for governor, and this completely
turned his head Since then he has
regarded himself as the greatest of
living politicians. He really thinks
the Republican party will go 10 the demni-
ton bow vows II he DOESN'T come out and
work actively in the campaign. Aud his
present intention, is to stay
at home and pout. Just what grievances
ne has against President HARRISON ii
would be difficult to determine The presi-
dent has treated him weIl--a great deal
better than he treats people generally
FAssErT has shown himself an migrate by
returning the presidents kindness with
the rankest treachery.
Mr.. HARRISON will be beaten as a mat
ter Of course. That is very generally ac-
cepted as q fact CLARKsoN, FAssETT, PLATr
and others Of the maIcontents win do what
they can quietly to defeat the president,
but we apprehend it is mighty little they
can do. The American people Will repu-
date Mr.. HARRIsoN because they object to
the political principles for which he stands.
Democrats to be sure rejoice oyer the row
in the Republican camp, bit they rely for
their victory next November in the good
sense of the voters.
