If it be true that some people talk
too much, what's the use of condemn.
ing chcwing-gum factories. To try
to chew and talk at the same time is
to make failure of both.
Its a fact, the Danville papers are
not making much noise about their
smallpox. This perhaps, is because
they understand that the general dis
position is rather to magnify and un-
duly alarm In all such cases.
Smallpox being generally winter
disease, as cholera and yellow fever
are summer diseases, we may reason
ably expect its abatement soon. But
the Inscrutable Power that can fix up
the atmosphere for measles and small
pox can still reach us in thousand
other ways. Let's reverence this Power
as a matter of policy, and in the hope
of escaping plaques, if we cannot
scrape up religious principle enough
to reverence God and let the world
know it.
One advantage about tn. Coxey
crusade is that it makes a fine open
ing for hungry tramps to partake of
free lunches prepated for them by
those who would not give the individ-
ual tramp smell Of the kitchen.

The ogling street corner loafer, as
the President of the Town Council
publicly intlmates, should be made to
disperse or move on, and not be per
mitted to interfere with the pleasure OF
ladies and children who may choose to
walk out for health or recreation, but
who do not care to run the gauntlet OF
vulgar expression, tobacco juice, &c.
The law Of the land is against the og-
ling street-corner loafer, and SO is pub
lie sentiment.

Traus,cns Ialands of the Pacific.

The western Pacific is great place
for islands that emerge from waves
unexpectedly and as suddenly disap-
pear. Sometimes they come up and
stay, but more often they have an ex-
istence merely temporary. The won
dering skipper misses a familiar land
mark, by which he has been accus-
toned TO ct his bearings, and perhaps
the next day he runs his vessels nose
upon brand new piece of territory
that has sprung up out of the water
since he last came that way. The re-
gion south of japan is so given to this
sort of eccentricity that ships avoid it
Volcanic action is responsible for such
phenomena. Reports of them will be
noted on the pilot chart in every case,
though they are not always relia BILE,
because backs OF sleeping whales and
schools of fishes running along the sur
face are frequently mistaken for ISL
ands and shoals.-San Francisco Ex-

New Theory ms to the E.r.h,s Crust.

New Theory M to the Esrth's Crust.
A theory has been put forth by M.
Rateau in the French academy of sci
ences that the crust OF the earth be-
meath the continents does not tonch the
fluid globe. but is separated from it by
a space filled with gaseous matter un-
der pressure. The continent, therefore,
constitute a sort of blister, much fat
tened. inflated and sustained by gases,
while the bottom of the oceans is sup
posed to rest directly on the fiery
mass. BY this hypothesis the author
believes that many phenomena OF the
terrestrial crust may be explained
which are not clearly accounted for
under the present theory. - Popular

 P. Minor usually makes 1t point to be somewhere near the head of the procession. As means of amusement and locomotion he has adopted the bicycle and nothing is too new or too good for him in the way of bicycles and bicycle attachments. The latest is an electric lamp which can be turned on or cut off in an instant and throws out tiny but penetrating stream ot light. Speaking of Mr. Minors bicycle, Jim Rennie said "You know that hand some big black horse Minor used to ride. We'll, that horse was brought into pretty constant use travelling be- tween the factory and office and other places about town where Minors exten- sive business called him. That horse has regular time every morning after breakfast to get down on hIs front knees and return thanks to the man that invented bibycles.'
 Justice Johnston tried eighteen cases in just thirty-six minutes yesterday afternoon and rendered judgments. The lightning like average of two min utes would have been reduced but for the fact that In three of them con- plaints had to be drawn up. These were various plaintiffs against the Hud- son Reservoir and Irrigation Company Two cases against the same defendant were tried in Justice Kincaid's court. The judgments in all aggregated $2250, The facility with which this litigation was disposed of WAS made possible by the circumstance that stipulation had been entered into by which the defense should be given 8 reasonable time to satisfy the judgments. It is said by those who are informed that this is a movement on the part of the defense to adjust it's affairs preparatory to resuming active work upon the enter prise.
