A writer calls attention to the fact
that an ounce Of silver and bushel of
wheat rise and fall together and have
done 80 for many years. The only ex-
ception to this rule was during the fam
inc In Russia, when a bushel of wheat
was higher than an ounce of silver.
When silver was worth 81. 1920 an ounce,
wheat was worth $1.80 bushel. Now,
with silver in the neighborhood of 90
cents an ounce, a bushel Of wheat is
there tOO 4M.t .r

going to sell some Of his royal palaces
Here is the chance of his lifetime for
some millionaire American. Humbert
will still have enough left to change
around in, however. Besides the royal
headquarters at Rome he will retain five
palaces and few hunting parks in diff
ferent parts Of his kingdom. An assort-
ment Of houses is a necessity to kings,
for king cannot pick up any day and
run of and quietly go around the world
when he Is bored 10 death and Is suffering
from nervous prostration at home. That
joy is reserved to the private individual.

There is ripe side to the orange as
we'll as to the peach. The stem half Of
the orange is usually not SO sweet and
juicy as the other half, not because it re-
ceives less sunshine, but possibly be-
cause the juice gravitates to the lower
half, as the orange commonly hangs be-
low its stem.

4. rne courses OF lectures to teachers and
pupils given In the public schools are not
always SO useful and 30 in touch with
practical things as they are in Philadel-
phia, where course of laboratory lee
lures has this winter been given to teach
ers and school principals. One of the top
les recently was on buds and branches.
Many specimens Of both were laid be-
fore the audience and dissected, and their
differing parts traced out with master
hand. The teachers probably learned
more Of botany in an hour than some Of
them had found out In all the years Of
their life before. 1t was pity that all
the school children in the city could not
have heard the lecture. Whatever tends
to make human beings become interested
in nature and to love the country makes
them happier and better as well as
healthier in their minds.

A committee from the City club of
New York, in conference with another
from the trades unions, have drafted a
plan for reformed city government. The
plan is to be presented to the constitu-
tional convention of New York state in
May. One object of the trainers is to
separate state and municipal elections
entirely, thus divorcing city govern
ments from politics as far as possible.
State elections are arranged to be held in
even years, city elections in odd years.
The legislature will be forbidden to do
more than enact general laws for the con-
troll of cities. Special laws for any par
ticular case must be submitted to the
people themselves of city before such
acts finally become operative. Any city
containing 10000 inhabitants is entitled
to prepare and adopt its own charter,
subject to the general laws for the gov
ernment Of cities. The charter is to be
adopted by vote of the citizens of that
particular place. Avery important fea-
ture of the new scheme is that it makes
all privileges, licenses and franchises,
such as gas and waterworks and street
railways, belong to the city itself under
the constitution Of the state, and this
cannot be changed except by amending
the constitution. A city may lease gas
works OF street railway privileges to
private company, but not for longer
period than 80 years, and then not un-
less majority of the citizens vote in
favor of such lease. The company leas-
ing such privileges may own its operat-
ing plant, but never the franchise itself,
which is unalterably in the city's hands.

Mallory Line steamship Lampasas Run
Aground at LeweS.
With signals of distress flying and
her engines forced to their utmost power,
the Mallory Line steamship Lampasas,
from Galveston for New York, put into
the Delaware Breakwater on Friday
with her cargo of cotton on fire. Fire
was discovered in the after lower hold,
among the bales Of compressed cotton
Friday morning at B O'clock, and, de-
spite efforts made To batien the matches
tightly and prevent the air feeding
the flames. il som gained so much head
way That Captain Burrows, commander
Of the Lnmpasas, decided to make the
Delaware Brcakwater, land the pnsScn-
gers and send them by rail to New York,
The tug North America went at once
to the Lampasas' assistance on her ar.
rival Mt the Brcakwater, and succeeded
with her pumps in filling the barnina
compartments with water. Friday night
ten feet of water had been pumped in
her hold, and she was run aground near
the iron pier as an additional safeguard.
Both cargo and vessel are considerably
damaged, and the Lewes wreckcrs arc
| Cndeavoring to get at the burning cargo.
Some idea of the value of her cargo
may be gathered from the fact that one
insurance company in this city has q
risk Of Sl75,000 on portion of it. The
Lampasas is one of the finest and fleetcs
vessels engaged in the American coastina
trade. She was built in 1885, at Chester
by the late John Ruaeh, for the Mallory
steamship Company Of New York, he
| present owners.
