Falb's Theory Of Earthquakes.

1t is the idea Of Professor Rudolf
Falb of LEIPZIG that earthquakes and
other disturbances Of the earth IS crust
can be calculated beforehand within
two or three days at least. He arrives
at this conclusion by what seems log
ical process of reasoning. The interior
of the earth is in a fluid or semifuid
state, it is believed. The moon, sun
and planets are nearer to the earth some
times than at Others When it, happens
that large masses OF these bodies oper-
ate on the earth from the same side, it
disturbs the equilibrium Of her inner
masses, like the ballast of & ship, and
eruptions, storms and other disturbances
follow. Such disturbances Of the earth's
mass will naturally come when the
earth and moon are nearest together,
when the sun and earth are nearest to-
gether and when the sun or moon is in
a certain equatorial position.
Falb first discovered that earthquakes

Yale's Irlyparable loss

The public will sympathize profound
~ with Yale college in the loss of her
most promising student. He did not die.
but he left the college to enter on a busi
ness career. Eager eyes have watched
him from the time he entered the varsity
to the day he left it.
1t is not quite sure whether the young
man, Nh. Sanford, would have been a
Shakespeare or a great statesman.
Which way his surprising intellectual
talents would Jump had not yet de-
veloped.
Was Mir. Sanford a great Latin
scholar? Well, no, he was not Then
the elegant and poetic Greek, the French
OF ancient tongues, must have been his
speciality? No, not exactly. Somehow he
never took to the dead languages at all.
He only knew one living one we'll, his
own. Lie was not the college prize ora
tor His forte did not lie in mathe1nat-
les. and he was not the class poet. Still
his loss to Yale is irreparable and more
bitterly felt and sadly commented on
BY the remaining students than if he
had been prize orator, poet, master of
dead and living languages all in one.
Mr.. George Foster Sanford failed in
his examinations in the varsity law
school. Butt the varsity athletic games
he was simply great. He is 6 feet 8
and weighed 1913 pounds, and Yale had
hopes that he would beat the fellows
from all the other colleges out of their
boots. Therefore all Yale wears Grape
Tor the loss of one of it's greatest sons.

Is Too Much Land Cultivated?

The Rural New Yorker is one Of our
most esteemed contemporaries. It's head
is as level as the great corn belt. We
are surprised, therefore, when The Rural
cries. out to stop the irrigation move
ment because there is too much land un-
der cultivation in this country already.
This is foolishness. Can there be too
much land under cultivation when
1000, 900 men are tramping the coun-
try, out Of work, today? The food that
would fill the mouths Of them and their
families would OCCUPY in it's cultivation
many thousands of the acres that would
be brought under cultivation by irr1ga-
tion. Go to a meeting of workingmen in
the slum districts Of The Rural's own
city Of New York. Cast your eye over the
sea of heads. You will see that the faces
are pinched and sharp, the compilations
pale and tallowy. The hands and bodies
are often lean and shrunken. There is
not a plump man among them, with the
rarest exception. What does this prove?
1t proves actually that these men do
not get enough to eat Look again at
the children in these slum districts.
They look like little withered old men
and women. They, too, are insufficient
ly fed, plainly enough. It is true, the
price Of some farm products has been
low the past two years. It was not be-
cause people did not want and need to
buy and eat them. 1t was because they
did not have the money to buy them.
Mol When the food the farmer raises is
so low in price ts.@- he can hardly make
a living at all, the same time that
millions are in 70 need Of the very
th1ngs he raises, a sign that some
thing else is the tter than too much
land under cultil bn.

On election day just at O'Clock,
when Tammany was getting fits at the
polls in New York city, the big royal
Bengal tiger at Central park suddenly,
with most unearthly roar, lay down
in corner Of his cage and doubled up
in fit. He foamed at the mouth, roll
ed over and over, emitted yell after
yell and acted for all the world as if he
had an awful pain in his stomach. The
keeper explained that he had swallowed
something which disagreed with him.
A few hours later it was ascertained
that the Tammany tiger had done the
same thing, and that he was in a very
bad way indeed.

The political campaign this fall was

The political campaign this fall was
in many Of the states one of the most
exciting ever witnessed. Yet, on the
whole, it was one the states can look
back to with satisfaction for one reason
if no other. The personal abuse and
mud throwing that the followers of op-
posing candidates sometimes indulge in
were singularly absent. The country is
to be congratulated that most Of the
congressional candidates were men of
respectable lives morally. The one most
notable exception to this rule was turn
cd down with an emphasis that left no
mistaking the sentiment of the commu-
nifty in regard to the moral character
OF political officers. This is a distinct
gain, and the United States is to be
congratulated on it. Only men Of clean,
dignified character are fit for office in a
republic.
