a paragraph appears in z of the
daily papers under this needing: Car
negie Complimented-The University
Club Entertains Him at a Banquet.
Following this is an account Of the ban
quet. Mr.. Carnegie was, in the opinion
-os the.reporter, apparently the guest of
honor. AS he puts It, 1.-The members er-
tertained Andrew Carnegie and ex-
President White, of Cornell university
If the reporter thought as we do, the
precedence should havebeen thus, Eek:
President White, f cornell, and Mt.
Andrew Carnegie"
But why should the University club
entertain Mr.. Andrew Carnegie? He is
opposed to university education, and says
so very frankly. He wrote a series of
letters to the New York Tribune on the
folly OF the higher education. He has
of course a right to his opinion, but,
holding such opinions, why should the
University club do him honor:-San
Francisco ArSonaut.

Poor Taste of Two Englishmen.

1t is a common thing to see the Eng
lishman say or write things which no
American would utter or put on record.
Lord Ronal Cover, representing one
of the noblest Of English houses, finds
no shame whatever in telling in his pub
lished diary how he used to write squibs
in the newspapers, satirizing his hosts OF
the day before because they let the smell
of dinner come into the hall. Mr.. RI.
Stevenson is credited with q remark al
most equally graceful to the effect that
the a Thoreau never drank wine
was because there was no wine in Amer
lea fit to drink.
When we consider at how many houses
in this country this lively writer must
have been a guest, and how cordially
the hosts musthave shared with him the
best they had. poor though it might be,
the remark may fairly enough be classed
with that of Lord Rt 10Y opeu sru

DR.. Morell Mackenzie.s Income.

The amount of money earned by DR.

practice Gin 1862 he was making $500
a year. and his income rapidly increased
as his reputation spread, TIL about 1871;
he touched high water mark, with ''tak
ings' of from $50, 900 70 $4,000 a year
an enormous figure for a practice. the
bulk OF which consisted of guinea fees

xInxitinc Frozen Feet.

In cold weather never wear a wooden
stocking inside a thin, tight shoe. To do
so is to invite frozen feet. The wool
grows damp and clammy with nsensi-
BILE perspiration, the shoe pinches the
blood vessels into sluggish torpor. Be-
twixt them you have a frozen foot al
most before you know it.-New York
Journal.

A New Engine of War.

Louis Gathmann, of Chicago, Ill,
has invented torpedo which can
be fired point blank at an object
from 2000 to $500 yards distant,
being constructed so that the usual
depression of the firing apparatus
counterbalances the effect of gravi-
tation upon the projectile in It's
fight and is done away with.
A specimen torpedo which Gath
mann has constructed looks very
much like long Winchester rife
cartridge, having attached to its
upper side thin plate of spring
steel, fastened through the center
and serving as wings to buoy up
the torpedo in its fight, while at
the extreme rear end is a sort of
thin-bladed propeller wheel which
acts as a steering apparatus.
The torpedo is hollow steel
cylinder three-eighths of an inch
thick, with an outside diameter Of
ten inches, and is fifteen feet long
The rear end is loaded with gun
powder, Immediately in front o.
which is the air chamber, serving
to reduce the shock Of the explo
sion, and In front of this chamber
is a secret arrangement which
serves to keep up the momentum
of the projectile. The fore part II
loaded with compressed gun cotton
which is fired by percussion car
tridges, set off when the TORPEDO
strikes a solid body.
The wings on top of the torped
are made Of spring steel, SO tina
they adjust themselves to the rat
Of speed with which the projectll
passes through air or water. Whel
the speed is high the wings ar
forced more nearly into a horizonta
line, and as the speed decrease
they assume a more inclined posi
ton. One Of these torpedoes is t
be sent this week to the Unite
States torpedo station at Newpor
for trial.

will complete to-day making a
careful survey Of the harbor. Mr..
Moore commenced his labors about
six weeks ago. The survey was
commenced from the entrance to
the channel and this morning they
viii survey in the neighborbood of
Brewers wharf. The channel and
the harbor inside have been found
to be deep enough to allow large
steamer of the China's size to come
in safely.
The average depth has been
about twenty-eight feet. The o.
| s. s. Co.'s wharf is deep enough
for the China, the water there
being about twenty-six feet deep
throughout. At one place near
the P. NJ. s. S. Co.'s wharf, the
surveyors found a depth Of only
about eleven feet which was due
to accumulations Of fallen coal and
dirt from colliers, ETC., but the
lump is so near the wharf that the
keel of such vessel as the China
could not possibly touch it. After
making a complete survey of the
harbor, which has been taker
every ten feet Lieut.. Moore vii
make a chart and forward ii to th'
home department at Washington

THE SUGAR BOUNTY.

The New Orleans Daily Item
contains the following telegraphic
despatch from New York:
A prominent and directly interested
Louisianian, calling upon President
Cleveland, solicited his views concerning
tte bounty system of promoting the
sugar industry 10 this couLtry.
Mr.. Cleveland did not hesitate to de-
nounce sharply the system as not in &C.
cord with the Democratic spirit OF our
form of Government, and one TO which
he is earnestly opposed. He added,
however, that sugar was proper article
TO be considered in framing tariff for
revenue.
The Item learned a couple OF weeks
ago from Col. K. E. Rivers, Of the st.
Charles Hotel (who is also an extensive
planter, that while he was In New York
before the election, Mr.. Cleveland gave
expression to this same opinion.-ED.I
The New York Evening Post is
q journal that seems TO have the
ear of the President elect. In its
issue of Nov. II 1t says: The
Republicans repealed the duties on
raw sugar In order to neutralize
the bad taste of the Mckinley
tariff, but the taxpayers never
thanked them for free sugar and
never viii. To re-enaet these du-
ties, however, would be a danger
ous experiment and is not likely
/ to be attempted.
That any change will be made
! in the sugar tariff We regard as ex
tremelv doubtful. It would be bad
politics, and that is the stronger
argument against the reinstate
ment of the duty.-Am. Grocer.
