A New Kind OF Filter.

An endless travelling band made of any
material suitable for 6ltering, so arranged
as to assume tor a portion of its length the
form of an open horizontal shallow trough
or cistern, is the latest innovation in filter
ing methods. The band is mounted so as to
cause it to make slight descent at one end
simultaneously to have the two sides or
edges OF the fabric turned up. In this form
the band extends horizontally for certain
length, and is then made to rise on an in
cline and to spread out fiat. A shallow
travelling cistern is thus formed between the
two inclines, wherein the water Tor flte-ing
is received. The speed of the travelling
band may be regulated in such way as to
allow it to be coated TO any desired degree
with the matter collected from the filtered
liquid, and OH continuing to travel it may
be conducted through cleansing apparatus,
whence it will return cleansed and ready for
the repetition OF the operation.

A Scheme for Rapid Photography.

A ferrotype dry plate camera has been in
troduced in London by which it is possible
to turn out ferrotype print every few
minutes with an apparatus which, all told,
does not equal cubic foot in bulk. This
camera dispenses with the necessity for q
dark room, and promises to give rise to a
new industry in penny portraits Another
device which will be appreciated by the
large army of amateur photographers in
this country also halls from England. 1t is
a changing bag that weighs only a few
ounces and packs in very small compass.
The bag fastens around the head, allowing
the eyes and lower part of the face to go in
side. The plates are passed through two
sleeve holes which are made to fit tightly
around the wrist by the aid of elastic. The
bag packs up into a convenien. form, and
will be of the greatest service to camera
enthusiasts on the warpath.

and called out such congressional action as
has helped the prohibition cause more than
all the work that all temperance societies
have accomplished in 1890.
Iowa is fortunate IN having Jud ;es laid
well and Shiras, who declare the Wilson bill
and the prohihitory Law in full force. So
that for the present, at least, the Interests
tn re seem safe.
In view OF the recent decision in Kansas
to the effect that the prohibition states
must re-enact their laws before the relief
provided by congress viii apply to them.
there is another general stirring up, but the
elections of Nov. in Kansas have buried
the talked-of resubmission of their amenl-
ment out of sight and 81 wing legisla-
tive majority that will, if need be. re-epact
their law.
Great advantage will come to reform
voters through the law IN New York state
and else here by which all the tickets are
printed by the government Of the state, so
that ballots are sure to he at every polling
place. We as prohibitionists have lost "a
great many votes because we could not man
the polls, having neither the money nor the
men.
Thus outside forces IN our civilization are
constantly working for the temperance
reform by that method of indirection which
SO often proves to be the parabola Of
power.
AS Is well known, the landing place OF
immigrants is no longer Castle Garden, but
the United States barge office near by. In
the forty-three years that they have been
required to land here more than $500, 900
foreigners have come to US, over $500 900
of these being Irish, nearly $4,000 Ger
mans and nearly 200, 900 English. 1t Is tc
the everlasting credit of Secretary Window
that he banished strong drink from
these premises. where it had held sway for
forty years.
The national convention in New York
last spring was a grand rally of temperance
troops. but will be longest remembered for
its exhibition of the lack of cohesive force
among the advocates of the great reform.
Disciples of moderate drinking and high
license appeared on the same platform with
total abstainers and prohibitionists. To my
mind there is small advantage in these exhl-
billions. An amalgam can be formed
only from materials that will ANAL
gamate. I'VE wait beneath the
furnace blast the peugs of trans
formation Heat that fuses and pressure
that blends alone can compact for practical
use the elements of reform. "As gold 10
tried in fire, 80 hearts must be tried by
pain" Nothing will heat and press and
purify into one mass of Gods incarnate
power the temperance people of this country
except the netional battle of the ballot-box;
the thunder of its coming cannonade already
rumbles, and its fatetul lightnings send
their flash into the depths of character and
motive. God hold us steady in that terrific
fight FRANCES E. WILLARD.

SION
Chautauqua has been from the formal or
ganization in 1874 a university extension
movement and 1t is largely the outgrowth
OF private aud church educational theories
practically tested for more than fifteen
years before that The first development
on a large scale in 1874 was simDlY the ap-
plication of the scientific method Of teach
ing and study as employed in she college
and university to biblical. pedagogical and
church-school work. The lectures, syllabi,
cOnrerSGzioni aud written examinations Of
1874 equal the best work of the English or
American university extension scheme.
Chautauqua is the extension Of university
work by correspondence, by local tutors
and by inprovised classes to nonresident
adult pupils unable 10 attend college. 1t
has an able corps OF correspondence teachers
from the best colleges of America. Its
principal DIR. William r. Harper Of the
Chicago University, who has been con-
nected with the Chautauqua system for ten
years, is one OF the foremost educational
organizers and leaders in the world.
Chautauqua was the first to propose and
organize in America the English form of
university extension, and now mas uni
Yersty extension lecture faculty of IFS
professors and instructors representing most
of the colleges and univegsities Of America.
Chautauqua, by its popular course OF read
ing that Of the Chautsuqua Literary and
Scientific Circle induces tens Of thousands
of adults to read in the best English the
substance Of the college curriculum and to
meet in local circles through a course of
four years for essays, lecturers, converse
tions, ETC., thus putting into the homes of
America the college atmosphere and
horizon. And as these readers are adults
and parents between the ages of 80 and 80.
their children are brought up to be candi-
dates for the college. Thus Chautauqua.
with memters and local circles in every
state and territory of the union and on every
continent of the globe, is a recruiting
agency for the college aud university. The

Between st. Louis and Chicago.
From the NeU York Press
ST.. LOUIS, Feb. "A company has Just
been incorporated in Springfield. ILL.,, for
the purpose Of building ali electric road from
here to Chicago.
The company proposes TO build a double
track road, as straight as an arrow, with
out a curve IN 1t. On this road it Is pro-
posed to run electric cars, which will travel
at the rate of 100 miles an hour, making
the distance in two and one-half hours, in-
stead of eight as now. The power station
will be at Clinton, ILL.,, where the company
will operate its own coal mine for fuel,
using electric drills and mining machin-

In time the entire line is expected to be-

standing on city lots. while behind them
will stretch out the wheat fields The
houses will be lighted and heated by cleo

threshers will be driven by chained light

section will have telephone connection, and
communication may be had whether the

occasions here. He was adopted by the late
Emperor Macmillan of Mexico, and il the
nation across the Rio Grande were now
governed by an emperor he would have the
scepter in his hands. According to his
friends here the young prince is rather an
arrogant sort Of fellow. He was even more
30 in his younger days. I was told story
to-day that illustrates this trait in his char
acter. His boastful conduct once excited
the ire of a young Virginian who with him
was guest at a ball Iturbide had been

how Insignificant other people were Finally
the Virginian, angered at what he consid-

himself in particular, lost his temper and
hit the young prince a resounding slap in

with rage, "Ye gods, he exclaimed, that
