How High is This ?

Washinton, September 9.-Nice-
President Adlai Z. Stevenson was
enc of the callers at the White House
to-day. He desired that Allen Bris>
coe of Clark county, ILL.,, be appoint
ed Register of the Land Office at
Oklahama. He had been backed by
another Illinois Democrat, but the
latter had died, and then the candi-
date sought the assistance of the
Vice President, whom he knew very
well.
Stevenson had no idea his recon-
mendation would be rejected. Much
to his surprise, Mr.. Cleveland gave
him a severe lecture on the subject
of the Vice-President interfering or
making recommendation on the
subject of appointments.
Stevenson informed his chief that
he did not call for the purpose of
being insulted or lectured on his
(Stevenson's duties. He wanted
the President to understand that the
of the United States
had the same right that any other
citizen had in the way of
recommendations, and he
for one proposed to execute that priv
lege no matter what might be done
or what should not be done.

A Neglected Grave.

The graveyard on the hillside west
of town, which has not been used as
Il burial place for a good many years,
presents a dilapidated appearance
The graves are sunken monuments
topplsd over, fences down and sage
brush predominates everywhere.
The most conspicuous grave of all
is that of William S. Allen, who was
shot by the Indians near Pyramid
Lake, while at the head of a scouting
party called out by Col. Hayes, on
june 9Th, 1850.
The headstone over the grave is
still standing, but little is left of the
iron railing built around.

THE action of the Minnesota Legis
lature has frightened the anthracite
coal trust out of its senses. No firm
or corporation in sane condition
would gravelY threaten a great COM
monweath with deprivation Of a
necessity of life in which such firm
or corporation traded. Edmund
Burke said: "You can not frame an
Indictment against a nation" so
neither can you proclaim a boycott
against State; the undertaking is
too vast. There is, for example, such
a weapon against monopoly as the
doctrine of eminent domain. In case
of emergency, such, for instance, as
une rerusaT or greuU monopoIIsUrc
association OF coal owners TO sell coal
on reasonable terms, State govern
ment or national government may
seize their mines and operate them
for the benefit of the people, paying
to the owners of them reasonable
compensation, and no more than that.
We are of those who would be sorry
were the government compelled by
circumstances to resort to this eX-
IRENE measure, but OF its power and
right to resort to it there is no doubt.
There is, however, very little cause
to apprehend the necessity OF such
governmental action. Strong State
laws, supplemented by Federal law,
can keep the greatest trust in check.
The threat of the Pennsylvania coal
barons against the State Of Minnesota
is but insolent and idle vapor. When
the States Attorney for Cook County
set the laws OF Illinois in force
against the anthracite monopoly, its
members proclaimed that they cared
nothing about the trade Of Illinois,
that it was nothing but drop in the
bucket of their commercial trans
actions, and that they were quite
willing to withdraw from the State.
But they did not withdraw-neither
did they advance the price Of coal, as
they we're preparing to do when the
States Attorney made war upon
them. The State of Mlnnesota's
cause is the cause of all the Western
States; the same vigor that there is
being displayed against the trust
should be displayed in each of them;
we then should see whether any coal
baron would dare to proclaim boy
colt against half of the Republic. The
end OF the trust system is at hand.
The people will not much longer
tolerate its existence. Abundant
means for its suppression is within
reach Of the administrations of the
nation and of each of its component
States. Minnesota is using one o
such means with considerable vigor
and with considerable skill also.

apply very well to the State of Texas.
There are disadvantages In bigness
This fact will impress any one who
reads the important report recently
prepared by General Adolphus w.
Greedy, chief signal officer, on -The
Climatic Conditions oflTexas."s. The
Biographies, as rule do mot help
one to acquire correct notions ofNthe
size of Texas. The State IS so large
that few atlas sheets show 1t on the
same scale as other States, except on
the general maps of the country.
Studying Alabama on one map sheet
and Texas on another the attention
OF the student Is seldom called to the
fact that Texas is shown on much
smaller scale than Alabama, and
very likely he leaves school with
quite erroneous notions OF the size OF
Texas compared with Alabama and
other States. General Greedy gives
some striking fact which convey {
more adequate idea of the enormous
area of Texas than many people en-
| terrain.
Although TEXAS belongs to the
drainage basin df the Atlantic, its ex-
treme western part, in El Paso Coun-
ty, is about two hundred miles nearer
to Pacific water than to the Gulf OF
Mexico. A part OF the panhandle is
nearer to the Great Salt Lake Of Utah
than to the Gulf of Mexico. Four;
teen of the 22S counties are larger
than the State of Delaware. The
distance from Ell Paso to the eastern
boundary of the State. is as great as
that from New York City to Chicago.
The northwestern corner OF the pam
handle is as far from the southern
boundary at Brownsville as Chicago is
from Mobile. While the extreme
northern part of Texas is in about
the same latitude as Norfolk, the
most southern part of the State Is
scarcely one hundred miles nUrth OF
Key West. Texas is one of our great
seaboard States, only California and
Florida exceeding it in length Of sea-
coast; and yet there are large regions
that are farther from the sea thar
many of our political divisions in the
interior, such as Idaho, Nevada, Ken
lucky, Tennessee, and Ohio.

ANOTHER instance OF the complete
petrifaction of human body is re-
ported, this time at Carlyle, Ill. The
remains Of John Russell, who was
buried there six years ago. were ex-
humed and were found changed to
stone, the features and form being
faithfully preserved. The process by
which nature effects this change is
but imperfectly understood and could
rot, perhaps, with the present state
of knowledge, be accomplished at will
by human agency. We have here by
the chemistry of nature preseryative
process that throws into the shade
even the wonderful skill Of the
ancient Egyptians. Some dismal and
unhealthy philosopher, appalled, be-
cause the human semblance, differing
in all instances from all others, must
be forever lost at death, has sug-
gested that bodies be transported to
the north pole and piled in blocks Of
ice for future reference on Judgment
day. The petrifaction process would
be less visionary and might be APP
piled only to the great people OF the
earth. The only trouble would be in
deciding who the really great were.
If individuals themselves had any
say in the matter the world would be
so piled with the old lumber in two
or three years that there would be no
room left for the living.

A Trick of the Eye.

BY cutting three strips OF white
paper of the same. length exactly,
with one OF them half as wide as the
others, one of the neatest tricks o.
optical illusion can be produced. Il
those of the same width are laie
crosswise, the narrow strip placed in
the center, it will invariably seem az
II the broad strips were considerably
shorter than the narrow one. The
Illusion is enhanced by laying the
pieces of paper on a black surface.
BY placing the three strips in the
form OF an inverted IN" and using
the narrow strip for the diagonal line
the latter in turn will appear much
shorter than the other two. TO an
Impractical eye the illusion will seem
very remarkable, indeed, when it is
demonstrated that all the strips are
of the same length. st. Louis Post

steeragc emigrants from those c I'M
tries to the United States. Consul
Gardner at Rotterdam aud Consul
Estes at Hamburg have made reports
to the Treasury Department describ-
ing the new hyglenic restrictions.
They read mighty well on paper, and
as such may do good service to miti-
gate restrictive legislation at Wash
ington. 1t is life or.death with the
steamship companies which subsist
on the steerage passenger traffic
whether immigration be suspended or
not. Still we observe that our old
friend, the Hamburg-American Pest
Company, has new dodge, which
perhaps casts shadow on its disin-
terestedness as purifier OF immigra-
tion. This, as described by lately
returned passenger, is to pack steer
age passengers-that is, passengers
who have paid steerage rates-into
the first and second cabin and thus
escape steerage regulations. While
such devices are abroad we must dis
trust the honesty of the steamship
companies, and especially Of the
Hamburg American Pest Company.

New Gun for the British.

A new wire quick-firing 6-inch gur
has lust been adopted for the British
naval service. 1t has successfully
passed exhaustive trials. 1t is Ions
gun of about 40 calibers, and weighs
seven tons. 1t carries an elongated
shot of 100 pounds distance of 1000
yards, and will strike an enemyt
ship or fertilization four miles dis
tant. 1t is so rapid in its action
that fired with cordite, at long
range, it has three or four shots In
the air at the same time. Each
weapon contains several miles OF
wire, it having been found that a CUR
made up of this wire is stronger than
when manufactured of homogeneous
metal. Wire is also found to stand
the first shock of the elastic force OF
cordite or gunpowder better than iron
or steel, while the long bore enables
the whole of the charge to be con
sumed. Is

tastes run in a certain direction, and
run so strongly that his vital energy

follow their tastes and drift into
various callings, but lack of vital
energy, or something, prevents them
from achieving success.
