Miners Troubles.

MAssILLoN, Oct. 3O,-The Massillon
coal operators paid their men Saturday
on the GO-cent basis, with the under
standing that should the arbitration go

a credit. The miners wanted to be paid
on the 75-cent basis pending settle
ment. Their president, Henry Mullen,
sent out an official statement Monday
morning saying: ''It looks like chal-

thereby upset all our efforts"

Safety Ely Wheels.

Since the recent tests of common
wound with wire. machinists have been
trying the same principle to winding
big fly wheels with paper. 1t was
found TO be almost impossible to create
fracture in the wirc-bound common
with the heaviest of explosives. The
reason that the same plan is being APP
piled to fly wheels is undoubtedly be-
cause so many wheels have burst dur
ing the past few years Instead of
winding with wire. however. the idea
is to use paper. The wooden skeleton
of the big wheel is put in a revolving
frame and the sheets Of MANILA paper
wound around it with applications OF
glue between. Nearly hundred lay
ers are wound on. The work is not
costly. \ cheap wheel results An &C

and an accident should result from
such failure he would be liable for

the owner of a traction engine has the

but they are only useful where there are
improved roads. With no other reason
presented. economy alone demands of the
public improved highways.
In any enterprise of this sort the Ques-
ton of expense is the leading feature.
The repair and maintenance of roads falls
largely upon the farmers. AS a class
they have been willing contributors. be-
cause their own interests have been so
deeply involved. The agricultural classes
of late years have borne heavy burdens
in the way of taxes for local. state and
national purposes. There is, however. a
future of promise. The recent political
revolution has called a halt upon admins
trative extravaganza. Without partisan
illusions or a disposition to lay the blame
in any special quarter it has been plain
that plethoric treasures have stimulated
unnecessary expenditures. State legisla-
lures followed the example of open-hand-
ed Congresses. and the local officers of
the municipalities. townships. and coun-
ties have kept up the pace set by the
higher bodies. AS under most systems of
taxation the farmer paid the big end of
the bills. Now we have heard their de-
mand for n reform, and it will be en-
forced until relief from excessive taxation
will be secured. With national and state
taxes reduced there will be more for each
community to spend around home. which
is always a good place to put surplus
money. With the opportunity thus pre-
scented to improve the roadways without
any increase in the present tax rate I
think the advantage will be seized upon

Primitive Weapons In Corea.

In the present Corean war the weap-
ons used are almost as old as those of
the Thlinklits or the Quichias or the
Patagonlans, consisting of clubs and
other missiles. bow and arrows, wooden
spears and wooden cannon, showing
that the improved ornaments of the
modern period have yet considera BILE
spaces of the world to conquer. The
one advantageous thing about these
weapons is that a given number of
soldiers will go farther with them and
last longer many times over than with
the improved variety. Chinese COM
manders and armies until recently re-
lied great deal upon noise in warfare
and upon the exposition of large
dragons of teakwood and pasteboard,
but have feared by experience against
foreign invaders to distrust the efficacy
of both and have adopted the arms of
their enemies. The Coreans have SINH
lar lessons to learn: that their bows
and arrows and wooden guns are what
are known as back numbers. and if
they wish to shine in arms and con-
quest they must import the improved
yarlety.-N. Y. Tribune.

The Elephant Fly.

Flies are largely responsible for the
slave-trade in Africa. The technical
name of this African fly is tsetse. 1t is
commonly called the elephant fly. 1t
is about one-half inch long and has a
bill one-fifth of an inch in length. This
bill does the deadly work. The fly is
only found near big game. It follows
the heards of elephants. It's sting is
fatal to horses, mules, oxen and dogs.
The ivory traders can not bring any
domestic animals into the country to
transport their ivory to the coast. The
transportation must be done by natives,
and as the dealers can buy negroes at a

buying stout young men among the

sending them to the coast and there

What Farmers Should Know.

able TO know what it costs Keep an
account of the capital invested in
cows. buildings and pasture land. as
well as OF the feed. Credit the cows

hogs. and also with the manure BY
this method the farmer will know
whether his cows pay or not Even if
the receipts and expenses balance,
there is profit made as long as the
land is improving in fertility
