Harper's Weekly closes an article OF

Harper's Weekly closes an article on
" Mr.. Gladstone's Cabinet" as follows:
Mr.. Gladstone knows that he has a
tremendous work to do in a time that
cannot be long at best, and may be
very short. lie has marshalled his
forces with reference to carrying out
his plan Of home-rule first, letting En-
glish reforms, on which the Radicals
are bent, take their chance in the fu-
ture For them he feels that other
men will suffice; for his own object
he feels that he alone can be depended
on. His policy is thus rational one,
but there is something pathetic, al
most tragic, in the spectacle Of this
mighty intellect struggling with such
q task on the verge Of the grave.

MIR. RANkIN'S SPEECH.

Mr. Rankin Of Pennsylvania opened
the campaign for the Republicans, at
the city hall on Monday evening. The
audience was small, numbering about
fifty persons, nearly equally divided
between the two old parties, with a
few prohibitionists intermixed. Hon.
n. T. Martin introduced the speaker,
who for over two hours spoke earnestly
and eloquently for high tariff taxation.
lie is 4 good comedian, fluent talker,
and has large number Of large figures
committed to memory; but of course
can offer no reasonable excuse for the
enactment Of the Mckinley tariff law,
which greatly increased federal taxation
ut 4 time when the annual revenues of
the government exceeded the expen-
ditures by nearly one hundred million
dollars. The first part Of his speech
consisted Of a biased and inaccurate
summary of tariff legislation and dis
cusson in the United States from the
adoption Of the constitution down to
the passage Of the war tariff, but he
was silent about the repeated attempts
made during the last quarter of q
century, to reduce federal taxation
the story Of which, without argument,
would make out prima facie case for
tariff reform. lie frequently referred
to 4 speech delivered by Mr. Warner,
the tariff reform advocate, and essayed
to refute his arguments. lie read the
proposition laid down by Mr. Warner,
taat where the sale of a home made
article IS controlled by trust, the
price of the home made article will
very nearly approach the price of the
foreign article plus the tariff. Not.
outstanding the self evidence of this
proposition the speaker took it in hand,
and with q great flourish told his
audience that he would "let the air
out Of it " just as he used to let the air
out of the moulds while working years
ago, as an iron moulder. But Mr..
Rankin had quoted more from Mr..
Warner than Mr.. Rankin was able to
successfully answer, and the result
was a victory for the tariff reformer
who was absent as against the high
taxer who was present. Excepting his
expressions Of utter contempt for
dimocrats ! and everything dino
cratic the speaker was mild tempered
and good natured throughout. As in
Dictated both by words and his manner
he evidently believes with all his heart
that the salvation of the country de-
ponds upon the maintenance of the
policy of high tariff taxation. But
while he may 50 believe. with fervor
above all other high tax idolaters,
1t is not within his power to convince

Murder will out. Strive to hide
their feelings as they may, some Of the
republican editors of Wisconsin will
betray themselves as mourners for the
lost cause. The Dodgeyille Chronicle
says:
The democrats Of New York are
raising a fund to send to Wisconsin to
carry the election by educating the
people, they say. The way the dem
ocrats voted on the Bennett school
law two years ago, seems to demand a
better education.

Strikes Not Evidences of Prosperity

The Hudson True Republican.
Strikes in some form are going on in
nearly every state in the Union. This
being the case, it is nonsense to say
that wages are high and labor pros
porous. Have not the laborers of the
country sense enough to know when
they are well off? The Republican
party does not seem to think so.

The Dog In Egypt.

In Egypt the dog was friend and
faithful servant, He lived in the
house with his master, followed him
in his walks, attended the public GER
emonies, sometimes free, at otheI
times held in leash by a slave OF
child or in princely families by a ia
vorite dwarf. At his meals he had
his place marked under the benches
of the guests. AS in Greece and
Rome, he was there to dispose OF
bones, the fragments of meat and
the pieces of bread that were thrown
down, and in general way to keep
the dining room clean. These were
certainly not very refined fashions,
and if our house dogs had to satisfy
themselves in this way they would
be likely to die of hunger.
The ancients did not feel the deli
cate tastes and disgusts in such mat
tiers that we experience; their life
presented excessive refnements and
rude features of which we have n"
idea, side by side. The house dog IN
Egypt was a domestic, working al
his trade, only his trade was one il
which we have ceased to employ
him; it may not have been a great
thing that he was lost, but it is in the
kitchen or his kennel that he finishes
up his masters dessert. Mature.

The spoon came into use at a very
ancient date, and as it is still found
among savage tribes that have never
come into contact with civilization, it
is evident that its use was suggested
by the needs of the most primitive
beings and not by any instinct OF
cleanliness or propriety. 1t was pre-
coded in the process of mechanical
evolution by vessels for carrying
water and by calabashes or clippers
of some sort for dipping water from
rivers or springs or handling other
liquids.
The habit of conveying these lar
ger receptacles to the mouth in eat
ing and drinking probably suggested
the spoon as more convenient for such
uses. How long these two simple
implements preceded the dawn of
civilization no one can ever know,
but it must have been more than
1000 years after they came into use
before the fork appeared on the
tables of civilized Europe, after
which nearly 100 years were required
to render its usage general. San
Francisco Chronicle.

A few days ago the stockholders
in the Waco Boating and Fishing
Club held an important meeting
The club has for some time needed a
club house at its lake and the meet
ing was held to determine whether it
should be built 1t was decided to
erect handsome structure in the near
future, a building that will have all
the requirements of social club with
ample facilities for the storage OF
their boats.
The matter of drilling an artesian
well was also discussed. 1t is evi.
dent that the present water supply is
inadequate and more water will have
to be secured especially after the lake
is full. The matter of drilling well
was not settled at that meeting and
another will be held this week to
settle the question.

Spraying Experiments.

From experiments carried on at the
Maine Experiment station, with view
to checking the work of the codling
moth, the following conclusions are
drawn: |. All sprayed trees had a
smaller percentage Of wormy fruit than
did the unsprayed. 2. A mixture of
one pound Paris green to $50 gallons
water gave better results than did a
weaker mixture; though mixture of
one pound to 320 gallons saved large
percentage of the fruit. 3. The num-
Der of windfalls was greatly lessened by
spraying. {. The proportion of wormy
fruits among the windfalls was much
smaller from thesprayed trees. 8. There
Is no danger of poisoning from the use
of fruit which has been sprayed as di-
rected. g. The best time to spray prob
ably varies with different varieties, but
In no case should any trees be sprayed
before the blossoms fall. 7. There is
greater liability to injury Of foliage
from the use of London purple than
from the use ef Paris green.
A study was also made as to means of
preventing or checking the ravages of
the apple scab. Apple scab is caused by
the attack of a parasitic fungus which
grows on the leaves and young twigs as
well as on tho fruit. The attack is most
severe in cool, moist seasons, and if it
occur early in the season, before the
years growth is completed, the trees
may be seriously injured. Spraying
with carbonate Of copper dissolved in
ammonia, and diluted, has proved an
effective means of holding the fungus in
check. The average increase of salable
fruit on tho sprayed trees, over that on
hnsprayed trees, was so per cent, while
In some cases the increase amounted to
Us per cent A solution of three ounces
Of carbonate of copper in one quart OF
ammonia, diluted with thirty-hve gal
Ions Of water, was found very satisfac-
lory. The cost of spraying with this
Iolution is about three cents per tree for
bach application,

In order to test both the intelligence and
color sense of birds DIR. G. @. Abbott once
placed several woolen threads-red, yellow,
green, purple and gray-near a tree in
which a pair of Baltimore orioles were
building their nest. Except in point of
color the pieces of yarn were exactly alike,
and their number was the same, but the
red and yellow were Intentionally placed on
the top to attract attention. 1t was found
that the birds used all the gray and little
of the purple, the bright colors being
Stunned as likely to make their home too
conspicuous. That they were especially
anxious to prevent their nest from being
easily noticeable DR.. Abbott proved in an
other way, By heating the branches he
shriveled up the leaves and exposed the
nests to view. Although in some cases eggs
had been laid the birds left their homes
In few nests that already contained young
ones the orioles showed the strength of the
parental instinct by continuing to feed the
babies until they were able to take care of
themselves, in spite Of the fact that the
nests were visible.
