A EMCRY.

eobbing and looking back she fed away
From where love lay.
Dead love, 50 tender one short hour ago,
Cnder the cold light of the northern star
Now lying low!
Moonshine and star dust scattered DER lis
head,
And ~ she fed
A wailing echoed round her and her tears
Fell heavily, and in the distance far
Adown the years
A voice cried. Hope no more, for love Is
dcad!'
Dep in the barren sands young Love was
couchcd.
And near him Crouchcd
A striped beast, gaunt, hungry, with rcd
mouth
Wet with his blood.
This was the tigrcss Fate inSatiatc,
Who creeps and crouchcs ever on Loves path,
Nor mercy hath,
But watches, patient, tirclcss even as death,
For only this may qucnch Fate's burning
drought
Fair Loves last breath.
And his hearts blood alone can stay her
wrath.
To left, to right, the barren desert spread,
And overhead
A ~vulture, wheeling, circled, black and grim.
She looked not on the desert nor above,
But back to him
And that lank beast, and, moaning, spakc no
word
Nor knew nor heard
Aught save the shivering echo Of her moan,
Signing, "Alone."
Then darkness fell upon the face Of Love,
The barren desert, woman, beast and bird.

The Tremor In Japan.

But there is one thing to have been
noticed about Japan Of late, a thing that
seems to have rather escaped notice
Japan is trembling. In the glowing
moment Of her supreme victories, in the
long hour of her almost unprecedented
run of luck, does it seem more stupid
or more impertinent to speak of Japan
as being a-tremble? The laws of
some countries hold that truth is no
libel. The laws Of other countries
hold that truth is the greatest libel.
l am uttering libel or l am not utter
ing libel according to the country
by whose laws I may be judged. Most
emphatically l am uttering the truth.
No other word SO truly adjectives Japan
as does the word trembling.
This is the age Of earthquakes. AL
most daily the papers record the up
heaval of some part or other Of the
world. And earthquakes are becoming
almost common where they used to be
nearly or quite unheard Of. Japan, as
far as we know, always has been, and
probably always will be, the stronghold
Of earthquakes. That inscrutable some
one whom some of us call God that in
scrutable something which some of US
call fate that inscrutable some one or
something Of which the bravest Of US,
the most phlegmatic Of us, the most
callous OF us, one and all, stand in more
than wholesome dread, for uncountable
centuries has seen fit and will see fit to
hold Over the flower crowned head CT
Japan a Damoclean sword. - Mrs.

An Oddly In Moonshining.

The astronomer royal for Scotland
states that when the moon is half full
its brilliancy is not nearly one-half as
great as when it is quite full. He at
tributes the brightness Of the full zoe
and the lack Of brightness in the half
moon to the variations in the reflected
sunshine, which are due to the rugged
ness Of the moons surface. The high
peaks and immense chasms ON the
moons surface are constantly at cross
purposes In their mode Of rejecting
light. The bright streaks which the
telescope proves to emanate from the
orators and chasms are largely invisible
under cross light. but are brilliantly IL
Illuminated when the sun shines full mp

Battlefield Cremation.

In view Of the terrific slaughter by
means of the latest improved munitions
If war it has been suggested that some
steps must be taken toward providing
Tor the removal Of the dead which would
90 incumber the ground as to make &C
sion and locomotion extremely difficult.
1t has been proposed that crematories be
ttarted for the purpose of disposing of
the dead. While it is clearly apparent
that something must be done in this di-
rectiOn it seems an exaggerated form Of
brutality to dump tho dead into Crema-
tory furnaces in this way. There is also
the very gravest danger that careless
and unfeeling employees may pick up
mel who are only stunned or who may
have tainted and plunge them into the
fiery vortex.
1t is a we'll understood fact that men
have lain for hours on the battlefield
easily be gathered up by ignorant or I'M
observing attendants and consigned to
the flames. 1t would be very much bet
ter to prepare temporary receiving hos
pitfalls, where all men not absolutely
shot to pieces could be removed and ex-
amined. Then the crematory might do
good work. There is, however, a melan-
choly satisfaction to surviving friends
in the idea that the bodies of their loved
ones who have fallen in battle may be
brought home to them and buried in
the family vault. Battlefield crema-
tories are not likely to come into gen
eral favor among people Of delicate sen
sibilities.-New York Ledger.

What Is Electricity?

hn anonymous writer in New Science Review offers the following definition for criticism: It would appear that electricity is simply a form or mani festation that the one force better spoken of as energy may assume un- der given conditions, and generally 1t is mere transitory stage between the mechanical form and the heat form. In most operations mechanical force passes to the heat form, but whenever magnetism is brought into play as re- sistance that must be overcome, then mechanical power applied to overcome this resistance always becomes cleo Sricity, if. only momentarily, in it's pas
 -.ge from the mechanical to the heat form. Can we not answer in fairly satisfactory way the question: What is electricity?" by saying that it is sim ply a form that energy may assume while undergoing transformation from the mechanical or the chemical form to the heat form, or the reverse?

A TINY MOONS INHABITANTS,
As Viewed in Comparison with the Beings

As Viewed in Comparison with the Beings
 of This World.
 In an installment of this department. says a writer in the St. Louis Republic during the first half of the past year gave some curious figures on the prob able height and weight of the inhab- ltants of the larger planets, passing the calculations on ratios deduced from comparison with the representative specimens of the human family on this earth. Taking some of the smaller planets and satellites and using simi- lar ratios, we get an equally interest ! ing set of figures.
 Let us take the inner moon of Mars as an illustration of this point. It is named Phobos, and is tiny satellite only eight miles in diameter. Let us suppose that every thing on our earth (which is nearly 1000 times larger than the little Phobian planet) is to be found on the surface of this miniature moon, reduced proportionately. We find, to begin with, that terrestrial man of feet, if transferred to Phobos, would be .O72 of an inch in height. A good microscope would be necessary to determine the true shape and form of this speck of humanity, and it would be wholly invisible to the unaided eye at distance of three feet. ship of the dimensions of the Great Eastern would be but 71s inches in length if re- duced to the Phobian standard, and duck pond would be ''fathomless ocean" to the liliputian inhab bitants of this Marsian satellite. A whale would be as small as a cheese mite, and real
 serpent, which would be a terror to
 T. Phobian mariner, would be like a section of hairworm fve-eighthsof an incR in length. The largest rivers can not be more than few feet in breadth and not more than two inches in depth. A railway train like the Chicago flyer" could be carried in an earthly card case, and a city the size of New York could be covered with a blanket!

DAWES IS BUSY.
The Attorney General Closing
Up the Country Joints
While the Governor Shuts Up
the City Ones.
IN EIGHT COUNTIES
General Dawes Has Been After
County Attorneys.
Abilene One of the --latest Places
to Go Dry.

Attorney General F. B. Dawes and his
assistant, MIR. A. A. GODDARD, have been
making a systematic war on the joints
over the state since the governor has
been closing the saloons in the cities of
the first class.
Nothing has been said about this at
the attorney generals office until now,
when the word is coming in that the
joints are being closed up.
General Dawes plan is to force the
county attorneys to close the joints in
their own counties.
He has written to the county attorneys
of Labstte Brown, Linn, Geary, Els
worth, Nemaha, Sumner, Dickinson, and
Sedgwick counties, and in each instance
the county attorney was informed that
complaint had been received that the
prohibitory law was being violated in
his county and he was urged to enforce
the law.
In urging the county attorneys to en-
force the law the attorney general took
pains to suggest that if the law is not en-
forced at once it may be necessary to ap-
point an assistant attorney general to do
the work.
Assistant Attorney General GODDARD
says if there is any one thing which will
Stir up a county attorney it is the sugges-
tion that an assistant attorney general
may be appointed,
County Attorney Woods of Sumner
county has written that he would like the
help of an assistant attorney general but
Mr GODDARD says from his report it is
doubtful if such an officer would find
anything to do. Mr.. Wood reports hav-
ing closed all the joints and having se-
cured $500 worth of liquor in a raid at
Caldwell.
The county attorney of Sedgwick
county was notified that complaint had
been made that he would not commence
prosecutions under the prohibitorv law
until costs we're secured. He was in
formed that he had no right to take such
position, and that he must enforce the
law and aid the police commissioners of
| Wichita in every way possible
County Attorney Smith of Dickinson
| county has closed all the joints in his
/ county by making a personal visit to

! joints in Abilene have heretofore been
paving regular fines of so d month
Word has been received from Pitts
! burg that every place in that town where

A complaint was received today notify

HOKE'S VIEW CHANGED.
Secretary Smith Admits He Did
Favor Free Silver.
But This Was in 1890 and It's
Different Now.

TOO BUSY TO KNOW.
Endorsed Some Of the Farmers
Alliance Ideas Then.
Meanwhile However He Has Had
Time to Ponder.

WASHINGTON, JuIy 15.-Secretary Hoke
Smiths attention was called today to an
article published yesterday charging
that he had been at one time an advo-
cate of the silver free coinage and sub
treasury plans of the Farmers Alliance,
1t was said that five years ago he pub
lished letter advocating these views.
Speaking of the subject the secretary
said: ''Aiy attention has just been called
to the publication of a letter written by
me in September 1899. to Hon. w. l.
Peek, and published at that time in the
Atlanta Journal The Journal was then
openly opposing the sub-treasury scheme
and my personal opposition to it was well
understoOd.
"The letter clearly excluded the idea
of committing me to all of the seven
propositions which it presented Al
though it was known that l did favor
free coinage of silver, l was giving most
of my attention to professional work at
that time, and supposed with
out thorough investigation that the free
coinage of silver would carry the value
of the silver bullion coined into a
dollar to par, and also keep silver and
gold dollars on parity with equal pur-
chasing power,
"Since that I have given to
the subject much more study
and being thoroughly satisfied
that the free unlimited and independent
coinage of silver at the ratio of Is to
would result in silver monome talism. /

Their New Monetary System.
Both Gold and Silver Coined
and Paper Used.
ALT, RACKED nv C0TN
ALL BACKED. BY COIN.
Mr.. Serreno Says it Will Change
Rates Of Exchange.
This Would Make Balance of
Trade Toward Chile.

WASHINGTON, July 10. - Mr.. H. NJ.
Serreno, of Valparaiso, Chile, manager
of the International railway connecting
Chile and Bolivia, is in Washington, and
gives interesting information of the status
of affairs in that section, where rumors
of war have beer prevalent of late.
MIR. Serreno says: "The greatest inter-
est in Chile just now is in the currency
conversion law, resulting in gold basis,
which went into operation on June l. 1t
has proved very satisfactory in opera
ton and gives promise of changing the
rate of exchange, so that the balance
of trade will turn toward Chile
"Borh gold and silver are coined and
the old paper money cOntinues to be
used by many who p.efer it on account
of convenience. But the government al
ways stands ready to redeem the paper
in gold, SO that there is an actual coin
backing for all of our money.
"Before left Chile" continued Mr..
Serreno, "there was talk of trouble be-
tween Peru an Ecuador over thei- boun-
darv, but there was no intimation that
Bolivia would join Ecuador against Peru
as recent reports have stated" Mr. Ser
reno says the sentiment in Chile over the
Baltimore incident has died out aud
now there is the best of feeling be-
tween Americans and Chileans.
The talk of a conf ct between Chile
and the Argentine Republic, he says,
will pass away as both countries recog-
nze that a victory to either of them
would in the end cost more than it was
