Lemons in Cholera.

An excellent illustration of natures
beneficial and protective arrangements
is to be found, according to scientific
testimony, in the fact that the acid
found in the lemon and the orange is
capable of destroying the poisonous
germs which give rise to cholera, and
perhaps also other diseases. Cholera
is distinctly disease of tropical coun-
tries which are the native home of the
lemon, lime and other members of the
citron family. Recent Investigations
made by the imperial health officers of
Berlin show that cholera germs are
destroyed in short time after being
brought into contact withcthe cut sur
face of lemon, and do not survive
more than twenty-four hours when in
contact with the surface of the fruit.
In consequence of the results of this
investigation no restrictions will here
after be placed upon the importation
of these fruits into countries where
cholera may be prevailing.

When the midwinter fair was first
discussed and put under way it was
considered a 100000 proposition.
and even at that figure there
were not few who declared
that the scheme was chimerical and
could result in nothing but failure.
To-day the Chronicle asserts, and sup
plies the evidence, that 81, o00, 900 will
not cover the amount of money which
has been and will be contributed and
expended by California alone, without
making any account of the state build
ings or of the vast sums to be spent
by the various concessionaires. In
round numbers the executive commit
tee will lay out 100000 in the con-
struction and equipment of the exposi-
ton buildings and grounds, and the
districts and counties of the state more
than $500, 900 in doing their share to
insure the success of the midwinter
fair. 1t is not necessary to call atten-
ton to the impetus which the expendi-
ture Of over $1,000 900 in ready money
will give to every portion of state
like California, with a population of
less than 100000.

THE experiment of running the
whaleback steamer in the ocean pas
senger carrying trade is to be tried on
the Pacific coast. One whaleback of
five thousand tons capacity, to have
accommodations for two hundred pas
sengers, is now building, and contracts
have been placed for two others.
They will run between Portland, Ore,
and San Francisco The steamers will
be of the same general design as the
big Christopher Columbus, which
piled between Chicago and the White
City on Lake Michigan all summer.
and which looked like big cigar, with
Lighthouses, saloons and cabins perched
along its full length on pillars, the
water having a clear breach under
them and over the body of the boat in
bad weather.

A New Channel of Commerce..


The great Yukon river of Alaska is
soon to be made a highway of co1n-
merce by the establishment on it of a
regular service of side-wheel steamers.
The first boat of the proposed line,
now building, will run from st.
Michaels island, fifty-fve miles from
the mouth of the Yukon-at which
point it will connect with Norton
sound steamers-over twenty-five
hundred miles up the river. The fact
that Alaska has the third-possibly
the second-largest river in North
America is not often remembered. A
new river steamer will establish trad
ing posts along the river, will trade in
all kinds of merchandise and the re-
turns will be made in gold dust and
furs. 1t will carry a complete assay
ing outfit and everything that miner
requires in taking out and testing val
liable mineral. 1t will also take along
a sawmill to cut timber for trading
stations. The Yukon is only naviga-
BILE during July, August and Septem-
be-, and it is thought that for the press
ent probably but three or four trips q
year may be made.

GEORGE W. MARTIN, editor of the
Kansas City Gazette, and Mayor Barnes
of the Kansas metropolis, are both can
didates for governor and have precipi-
tated lively fight for the support OF
their county. We know nothing of the
qualifications of Mayor Barnes and be-
lieve that he is entirely unknown to
fame in Kansas. If he should succeed
in securing the delegation from his own
county his candidacy would be mere
farce. Mr. Martin, on the other hand
is one of the best known men in the
state and possesses the confidence and
esteem of his party. If Endorsed by
his county, he would receive liberal
support all over the state. 1t occurs to
us that the republicans of Wyandotte
county are extremely unwise in putting
Mr.. Barnes forward at this time.

Masculine Vanity.

lone of the things that I have
learned by experience and observa-
tion," said philosophic tramp, els the
fact that most men who have begun to
accumulate years like to be thought
still young. have often turned this
knowledge to substantial account.
Take, for example, q man of fifty;
ffty's nothing. I'm fifty myself; but
most men of that age are pleased if
they are taken for younger men, and
some are greatly pleased. Time and
again have addressed a man of that
age with Young man. 1t doesn't
always work, but you would be sur
prised to know how often it does work.
OF course you use some discretion
about this; there are men whom you
might proftably so address in the
middle of the day, they are so vain or
SO yielding, but my usual course is to
use that form at about dusk, or in
more dimly lighted places; then cir
cumstances help greatly to give to the
speaker an air of sincerity. Many and
many nickel has come to me in re-
Spouse to a request so begun, and
have also in such cases the satisfaction
of knowing that have conferred a
pleasure upon the giver." It will be
noticed from this that the fair sex can
not monopolize all the vanity there is
in the market.

Mrs. LEASE has written letters t

Mrs. LEASE has written letters to
populists throughout the state inform
ing them that she is preparing to hold
seven meetings in Kansas, one in each
congressional district, for the purpose
of denouncing Governor Lewelling and
his administration. Mrs. Lease gives
no outlines of her speech in her letters,
but her friends state that she will make
public the charges recently made that
the administration has been corrupt in
handling the gambling evil at Kansas
City, and that there has been crooked
ness at the penitentiary. The first one
of her speeches will be delivered at
Topeka. Of course if she does this the
governor will be compelled to retaliate
and the public will be enlighted upon
some points which already appear very
suspicious.

THERE is curiously free and easy
style in the way of running boats on
the northwestern lakes and rivers.
Though they nominally follow time
table, they practically go their own
gait, the captains being satisfied if they
are not over day behind schedule
time, and the longer their passengers
stay aboard the more meals they will
eat and pay for. "Wooding up" and
loading with freight are excuses for
protracted delays, but captains have
been known to hold their boats while
a woodcutter or hunter ashore writes a
letter that he wants to send away in
the captains care.

A MEEK little man who was answer
ing in the Rochelle (Ga.) police court
few days ago to charge of beating
his wife explained that he had been
henpecked for many years. Whether
from lack of pluck or excess of chival-
~, he did notventure to assert his dig
nifty and resent her abuse until in des-
peration he got drunk, which gave
him courage, and then he went too far
and thrashed her. The worm will
sometimes turn, and it sometimes turns
out to be a regular boa constructor.

CALIFORNIA; supreme court set
aside the will of William Walkerley,
who left a million-dollar estate. The
widow had been bequeathed one
hundred thousand dollars in such a
way that she could not get it for
twenty-five years. His minor son was
similarly provided for, while nephews
and nieces came in under third trust,
tor the benefits of which they had to
wait quarter of century. The court
declared the trusts void, thus making
the requests Immediately operative,
but declined to award the entire estate
to the widow as she had asked.

Our Topeka Letter.

Topeka, Kansas, January %, 1893.
The congressional committees in some
of the districts are fixing the dates for
their conventions, which means that the
campaign for the nominations is open,
and that it will not now be out of place
nor inconsistent to indulge in a little
gossip about candidates. But last year
1S93-was just bit early to 60 cunning
for nominations, even if there was some
danger of the place hunter dying out of
Office.
The hunt for places on the republican
state ticket will be a great scramble /;
the fact is that many places hunters
have concluded that this is year that a
nomination on that ticket is as good as
an election. But the members of the
party who are not in this scramble for
places are not blind to the stubborn fact
that many of these patriots would be in
better business yet while if they were
hunting more voters for their party in
stead of a soft place for themselves.
Last week Brunstane thought that the
fight for governor would shape itself
along the line of a contest between Ma or
Morrill, and the field. 1t is now more
than prophecy; it is settled fact.
And if this feature should result in the
defeat of the Brown county statesman
he can only blame his selfish and i'm
polite managers for the result. The
field against which his friends have ar
rayed the Major will embrace Ex-Sena-
tor Harwi, of Atchison, an able and very
available man; thea there will be Sam
Benidict and John K. Wright; the
friends of Joel D. Barker are already
looking after his interests very closely;
Judge Sutton, of Ellis, will be a strong
candidate from that part of the state and
would make a most excellent executive !;
Rhodes, of Marshall, is g. man against
whom George Case dare not say word !;
then there is the Wyandotte team, both
good runners and either one of which
with the Wyandotte tribe at his back
will surprise the spectators in the out
side strength he will develop. Of course
Billy Buchan and Pete Kline are for
nenst either of them, but it might just
as well be here understood now and for
all time, that the man who bled Ingalls,
and led the party down to the Waterloo
of go as did Billy, is nothing but back
number in Kansas affairs.
The new military organization which
''Major General" Osborn is now organ
izing for the pop party in Kansas, is a
resurrection and remodeling of the no
torious Videttes which fourished under
the management of that reasonable an
archiSt, ''Prof." Vincent, and which
was exposed a few years ago. The high
sounding name, Ancient Order of 10y
al Americans, is but a snare and de-
ception intended to catch the unthink-
ing workingman.

The Passing of the Horse.

There is no domestic animal which
has proved of greater value to man
than the horse, and the past year has
been notable for the splendid trotting
records made by some of our fastest
PAGERS 1t seems probable, however,
that before many years have gone by
the horse will have been almost en-
tirely superseded for most of the prac-
tical uses to which it is put to-day.
One after another the street railroads
are adopting electricity as motive
power, and the same means of propul-
sion is now to be introduced for canal
boats, abolishing the old towing-path
and with it the use of the mule or
horse. A German company formed for
the purpose of building electric wag-
ons for use on ordinary roads is re-
ported to have already turned out
three hundred of such vehicles for in
dustrial and pleasure purposes in
Europe, and the German emperor's
electric cab has long ceased to be
novelty. The speed made by these We
hicles is considerably greater than
that of the ordinary horse, and there
is the additional advantage that there
is no tired animal to be considered in
case the journey should have to be pro-
longed. The power will probably cost
less than the feeding of the horse, and
there is no expense for attendance as
in the case of the animal. 1t is only
matter of time when all the work of
the farm will be done by electricity,
the cheapening of that product being
all that is required to bring about the
impending revolution, For riding, the
bicycle has already largely superseded
the horse; and since it is scarcely like
ly that horsefesh will ever come into
general use as an article of diet, the
perpetuation of the horses existence
will be mainly for purposes of sport, or
for those in which utility will be only
a secondary consideration.
