WHERE THE DAY BEGINS.
The Date Line in the Pacific Ocean
which Marks the Change.
From the st. Louis GlObe-Democrat.

By common consent of the nations longi-
tude on the globe is reckoned from Green
wich, England. The prime meridian is
considered to be at that point Melbourne
is, in round figures, 145 degrees east Of
Greenwich, and st. Louis is 80 degrees
west of Greenwich That is, in passing
along the globe westward from Melbourne
to st. Louis 235 degrees of longitude are
traversed. Each Is degrees constitute an
hour in time. The earth makes a COM
plete revolution, from west to east, through
800 degrees, in twenty-four hours. In
each hour, therefore, it turns Is degrees.
Places 10 degrees east of us see the
sun an hour before we do. Places 80
degrees east of us see it six hours be-
fore we do, and so on, The sunrise,
noon, sunset and all other hours come
to those places, as consequence, earlier
than they do to us. The present hour of
the day to the inhabitants of st. Louis,
whatever the hour may be, came to the in
habitants of Melbourne about fifteen and
two-thirds hour ago. To places west of
us, this order of things, of course, is re-
versed
But at what part of the globe does the
day begin? This was problem which
once bothered the scientists. The sun is
rising in some part or other of the globe
every moment. In some part or other of
the globe the sun is alwyas setting or on the
meridian. Therefore it is daylight always
somewhere. Yet it was necessary to select
a conventional starting point for the day.
1t was desirable too, that the place Of
transition should be in the ocean. At last
the chief countries of the world agreed
that the change of day should take place
along line drawn nearly north and south
through the Pacific Ocean This is called
the date line. Under this arrangement the
new day is considered to make its advent
on Easter Island This island is west of
Chile, and about a third of the distance
between that country and New Zealand.
Thus, when it is Sunday on the American
continent it is Monday on Easter Islands.
That island and the places to the west of
it along the date line always keep ahead of
us one day.

Feats of Professionalism.
From Snare Moments.

Probably the greatest pedestrian feat Of
the century performed in the United King
dom was that of Bob Carlisle, who com
pleted in 1888 the unprecedented feat of
walking 51O0 miles in 100 days. The
task was performed to test the capabilities
of moderate drinker as compared with
the endurance of total abstainer. The
distance was covered by repeated journeys
between Heaton, Norris, Blackpool, Man
chester, Oldham, Rochdale, Bury and
Broughton.
Weston, the abstainer, only completed
5000 miles in the same period. In Jahu-
airy, 1879, Weston walked 1870 miles in
1000 consecutive hours, marvellous feat
Of endurance. For single day walking,
W. Hewes stands first, having covered l27
miles 200 yards in twenty -four hours at
the Agricultural Hall. Islington. The
greatest distance walked in one hour was 8
miles 172 yards by w. Griffin in 1881,
aud in four hours was 27l miles BY w.
Franks in5l8s2 The gratest distance ran
in one hour was II miles 970 yards by
Louis Bennett'in 1869.

A CHILD's LAUGHTER.
BY A. G. swINBURNE.

All the bells of heaven may ring,
All the birds of heaven may sing,
All the wells of earth may spring,
All the winds of earth may bring
All sweet sounds together;
Sweeter far than all things heard,
Hand of harper, tone of bird,
Sound of woods at sundawn stirred,
yelling waters winsome word.
Wind in warm wan weather
One thing yet there is that none
Hearing ere its chime be done
Knows not well the sweetest one
Heard of man beneath the sun,
Hoped in heaven hereafter;
Soft and strong and loud and light,
Very sound ofvery light
Heard from the mornings rosiest height,
When the soul Ofall delight
Fills ehild's clear laughter.
Golden bells of welcome rolled
Never forth such notes, nor told
Hours so blithe in tones so bold
As the radiant mouth of gold
Here that rings forth heaven.
Ifthe golden crested wren
Were nightingale-why,t then
Something seen and heard of men
Might be half as sweet as when
Laughs child of seven.

will show who is elected on the county
ticket. and the county vote on electors,
congressman at large, congressman for
the 9TH district. governor, and state

John Armstrong is the senator elect
for this district. Stafford county gave
him in the neighberhood of 400, Rice
100 and Barton 230-making his ma
jority over r. G. Bailey ever 700.
Hon. M. w. Cobun is our represen-
tatiye in the legislature by handsome
majority.
e. L. Hotchkiss, for county attorney,
goes in again by big majority.
Tom Brewer continues as our probate
judge for another two years.
Rube Charles is the district clerk
elect. and won a decided victory over
Mel Simpson.
Frank Mckinney is the next county

official count makes big change in The
vote as we have it.

MORG'S ADVICE, send
JERRY TO HE'LL"
WAS CHESTER'S DOOM.HIS
FUNERAL KNELLI
For The Voters Indignation was Roused
Througout this Grand Old Nation, and
Morg. Himsels was Senc to
You Tell.

The latest advices on the congress
sional situation are that Jerry Simpson
is elected over Long beyond a doubt.
Nineteen counties heard from give
Jerry majority of 2,239 over Long,
and the eighteen other countiesto hear
from gave Jerry a good majority two
years ago, with every indication of his
increasing his majority in those counties
this year. The first counties to be
heard from would naturally be. these
with the largest vote, and where the
contest was supposed to be the most
hot, while the latest ones to come in
would be the outlayiDg, or coyote
counties where the vote would be small.
Therefore We do not hesitate to say
that Hon. Jerry Simpson is. the con-
gresham for the big 9TH district of
Kansas for the next two years.
All hail the supremacy Of TIE PBo-
PIE. Misrepresentation, .falsehood,
deceit, corruption and unreasoning
partisanship have heen repudiated, and
the people of this great district have
shown that they will stand by the
right. AT all times, and in all things.

Canadian Money,
not booked


There are quite number OF ways of
making living, and often times some
of the easiest are the most profitable.
Yesterday heayyset man was seen
visiting all the stores on First street
with large bag Of money in his hand.
He would approach storekeeper and
ask if he had any Canadian or mutt
lated money. If the merchant had. he
would offer to purchase it, and in
nearly every case he made a trade.
Canadian money is quite plentiful in
Portland, being so close to British
Columbia, and scarcely shopkeeper,
when he makes up his cash at night,
fails to find few quarters OF halves of
Canadian coin. The banks will not
accept them at par, and rather than be
bothered with them they throw them
aside, until they often have quite a large
amount. This speculator has learned
of this and he goes around offering to
take the money at 15 per cent discount
He generally gets it, and stated yester-
day that he cleared each month all the
way from $50 to $500 by his brokerage
system.
