the United States court last week at
Clarksburg, who was indicted for in
terfering with United States Marshal
Flowers in the discharge of his duty,
Tenant was fined $50 and ten days

pealed his case to the intermediate

was acquitted. Mr. Tenant was in
dicted by the United States grand
jury at Parkersburg last spring.
Tenant is now serving his ten days
in the Fairmont jail.-Free Press.

or exercise which might produce any

ger the life or property of any per-
son on any street, sidewalk, landing.

TIE ConnellsviIle Courier has the
following story to tell of the slick
operations of a fakir who may hit
this section at any time. ga slick
stranger buncoed many Springfield
people this week. He was a fine
conversationalist, of pleasing ap-
pearance, drove splendid team of
match black horses and got in his
work quickly. He carried with him
small boxes of soap, worth probably
ten cents, and sample dish of fine
set Of decorated ware to consist of
go pieces, which was to be given
free TO every purchaser of a box OF
the soap. He sold the soap at 81
per box, delivered it at once, col
lected the 81 and promised to deliv-
er the set of dishes in two weeks. As
the dishes would be worth SO or 81,
of course all who invested will never
see the stranger nor the dishes. He
has the dollar and his victims have
ten cents worth of soap"

CANALS or THE FUTURE.


They VIII BE Large Enough For the Ham
ding OF Heavy Business.
The history Of the struggle between
canals Of small dimensions and Of rail-
roads has been the same in all countries.
The fight ragged bitterly for a number Of
years, the canals acting on the defen-
sive, although they had as allies the
states under whose patronage they were
built and operated. The result has been
the same in all cases-the unconditional
surrender of the canals to the railroads.
This, however, is not so much the fault
of the system as of their management.
The railroads have great advantages
over canals. They are better able to
abridge distances both by reason Of supe-
rior speed and Of facilities for Overcom-
ing elevations, spanning streams, free
from danger Of destructive floods, and
piercing through the highest mountains,
but their great success is mainly due to
the fact that they have kept pace with
the progress Of the world
Waterways built from the beginning
Of the eighteenth century to the first
quarter of the nineteenth century were
regarded ample to meet the requirements
Of trade at the time they were construct
ed, and there was in many instances a
progressive improvement in their dimen-
sions and appurtenances. But while the
industrial, agricultural and commercial
developments of the world have ad-
vaneed to proportions not dreamed Of a
century ago canals have remained sta
tionary. They are now obsolete and can
no longer fulfill the requirements of
cheap transportation in competition
with railroads. The canals of the future
must have the dimensions and the facili-
ties for rapid transport to adapt them to
the new conditions of commerce. They
must not be barge or boat canals, but
ample waterways for the free passage Of
such ships as are now engaged in carry
ing the worlds trade OF such canals
we have now some important types in
successful operation, and others in proc
ess Of construction or in completion. -

CONDOR A DISAPPOINTMENT.

Visitors Expect to See Bird That Rivals
In Size the FabIed Roc.
If the visitor to the geological gardens
will make his way to the vultures'
aviary, he will find condor Of the An
des.
When be sees the great somber plum
aged bird sitting on the tree stump in the
middle Of not too roomy cage, his first
feeling will probably be one Of disap-
pointment. Some Of this disappointment
must be put down to the highly exag-
gerated accounts Of early writers. The
measurement Of is feet has been given
as the wing spread Of a bird actually
killed and taped. Darwin shot one in
1884 with wing spread of feet 6
inches, and it measured feet from
beak to tail The measurements of one
that fell to Humboldt's gun tally pretty
closely with those of the bird that Oar
win killed
Part of the disappointment is 10 doubt
due to the surroundings. One has form
ed vivid mental pictures of the bird
sailing at great height without an eff
fort, soaring in graceful circles, or glid-
ing down like lightning upon its prey.
One sees it sitting with its head drawn
down between its wings, and its plum
age draggled, without sufficient space
over which to run to gather momentum
for a rise, or height enough to fly if it
could leave the ground Sometimes,
from the top Of its perch, it attempts to
use its wings, but its efforts result in
failure
1t was long supposed that condors
hunted by scent, but experiments have
proved that the sense Of smell in these
birds is by no means keen. They proba-
bly, discover their food by sight, and the
descent of one bird serves as a signal to
others at distance.
A young condor is much prettier OBJ
ject than an old one. 1t is clothed en-
tirely in white down, and when it set
ties itself to sleep, with its feet hidden
and its head tucked away, it looks like
a fluffy white ball.
The plumage of the adult is black,
with white ruff round the neck, and
the quilts have white edging, which
becomes broader at each successive
molt London Sketch.
