The Topographic Sun having spoken
Of Grover Cleveland as q "willipus-
wallupus," Dunlap's Stage Mems takes
up the term and remarks that the
willipus-wallupus is known in theatrical
circles as we'll as in politics. an the
morrill, says this authority, "it is known
as the cenoxaphelia, while in the West
Indies it is called the gongozo and in
South America the cocaine. He belongs
to the shark family and is very much
like bigum." To this classification
another theatrical publication, the New
York Stage, takes serious and elaborate
exception. After showing that, for
reasons fundamental in natural history.
the willipus- wallupus cannot possibly
he identical with the ccnoxaphelia and
the rest, and that his relationship to the
shark family is even debatablc, this
critic quotes Professor Johann ]. Baier,
who just before his death, III 1875,
wrote treatise on this very subject, to
the study of which he had given the
larger part Of his life, in which he de-
scribes bigum as being certainly Of the
genus zoospore, and willipus- wallupus
Us being to all intents and purposes a
GORILLA fact which makes the diff.
ference between them 4as great as be.

Leaving the further discussion Of this
importantquestion to the expert natural
lists who have taken it up, we venture L
express the opinion tina. the news from
the forthcoming national convention vii
make the erratic editor Of the porno
graphic Sun wish that he himself coule
be transmogritiod into a willipus
wallupus o. something Of the kind.

The Way Women Drive.

Tom Trumpbour is. one of the
quaintest. best-hearted horsemen in
the country, says visitor in the
Catskills. He's driven stages in these
mountains for thirty-five years, and
his salient remarks on the way
women driven would be worthy of
being preserved in print and literally
given out, as are tracts, tor the sake
of misunderstood horsefesh. Tom
only received twenty copies of that
charming autobiography OF horse,
BLACK Beauty" from noun tain
maids who know we'll how he likes
horses.
They keep fishin' with the lines"
says Tom, when giving points on the
way women drive. They all think
they've got a bite. A woman can't
help it; it's natural. She's got notion
she Oughter git along faster, and she
keeps s-pushing, a-pushing on the
lines.
Hold your lines taut in one hand;
q turn of your wrists guides your
horses all right" said Tom Trump
bour, handling the ends of b Ill of
Irvine with the air of professor dem
onstrating scientific fact. And
don't hold yer lines up so they will
cuff yer ears. Most women do-and

Dromedary Life Preservers.

Atlantic City Correspondence Philadel-
phia Press.
Il don't see how that humpbacke ed
man can be so venturesome."
But he isn't humpbacked at all.
That's only one of these life-preserver
bathing suits. That part OF the jersey
under the arms and across the back
can be inflated and acts as q drown
ing preventive"
And so 1t was, but the wearer SEEM
ed co npletely deformed, and 1t Is
not likely that that style of suit will
ever become popular since those
who are good swimmers scorn such
assistance, and those who are not
don't go out far enough to feel the
need OF it. Still, every once in q
while one OF these suits appears, and
occasionally young woman with a
regular life preserver strapped over
her shoulders and under her arms,
goes into the water. One such was
seen today, and as she did not go out
above her knees in the surf, the rea-
son of its wearing was not very appa-
rent. 1t made her look so conspicuous
that in many ways it was life pre-
server with a young woman instead of
a young woman with life preserver.

R. II. EdmondS, of Baltimore, in August
Forum.
Since 1881 the corn crop of the South
has increased rs per cent, as against
II per cent in the rest of the country;
the cotton crop has increased from
$500, 900 to 8 900, 900 bales-an increase
in value, even with the present low
price, of $500, 900, 900; in 1891 there
were nearly 45, 200 miles of railroad in
the south, against less than $4,000 in
lSSl-a gain of 81 per cent, as against
a gain of Sc per cent in the rest of the
country. The passenger traffic of the
same roads increased during the same
period $50 per cent, as against an in d.
crease in the rest of the country of on
ly 1853 per cent. In pig iron manutac-
ture the south's output jumped from
45l 900 tons in 1881 to l GA 900 In 1891
"a gain of 1913 per cent, as against q
gain for the rest of the country of IS
per cent; In other words, in 1881 the
north and west made more than nine
times as much iron as the south, In
1891 they made less than four times
as much. The increase in the mum Der
of mill operators in the south was 1876
per cent, as against al increase in
New England of II per cent And so
in every line of productive activity
the marvellous rspidity of increase is
explained, showing that In assessed
valuations the property of the south
has in this period very nearly dou bled
and increased from 1S7 per capita to
S27l Ia record that is probably with.
out parallel in the whole history of
substantial Industrial growth. And
in spite of the temporary depression
caused by an overproduction of cotton,
the increase goes on.
