A favorite method of killing the huge
rats that infest the lumber camps in
Northern Pennsylvania, is rather haz'
nrdous for the lumbermen themselves.
They catch 4 big %rattlesnake alive, hold
it to the ground by putting a forked
stick across its back. and then place in
front Of it a piece Of calf's liver. The
RATHER is leased, and in It's anger bites
the meat over and over again. In fact
all of Its poison Is thus injected into
the liver. which is then put where the
rats can get it. In a Potter County
camp last week eighteen rats were Kill
ed in one night by nibbling at
poisoned meat.

ton upon the method heretofore em- ployed to distribute the water. Instead of bringing the tunnel from the ialle- crib. only a short distance lnianG from the shore, and forcing the water through miles of mains and service pipes from pumping stations near the lake shore, the projected tunnel is to carry the water nearly to the extreme western and northern boundaries of the city, and the pumping stations arc to be in the centres of the regions through which it is to be distributed. By placing the pumping works at the extremity of the tunnels the length of main necessary to force the water through to supply the territory proper ly is greatly reduced and the amouEt that can be pumped is increased. As now projected the new tunnel, includ- ing the crib in the lake and the pump ing machinery, will cost about $3,OO0, 900 or $S,50OOOO. In addition to this, mains for distribution will have to be laid. These will probably increase the cost of the entire system to about $5, ,0O0, 900.

a number of young negro women are employed as saleswomen in the leading white dry goods establishments; in Chattanooga the negroes have long held important offices under the city govern ment; in Macon negro policemen have served on the force for years; in Saw annah there Is a negro physician on the sanitary force; in Beaufort, South Car olina, the negroes run the town, and in North Carolina they run the legislature. So far as business enterprise, pure and simple, Is concerned, 1t occurs to us that the negroes of every city of any size in Georgia are far ahead of our Augusta friends. For many years this condition of affairs has puzzled us.
 The negro will play an important part in the great exposition at Atlanta. It is an impressive fact that the board of directors, all of whom are white south ern men, by unanimous vote extended an invitation to Robert T, Washington of Tuskegee, Alabama, the negro leader, to deliver formal address, in connac- tion with the regular programme, at the opening of the exposition, September IS. The negro has perhaps received no more important recognition than this since 1 the war.
 | Spencer Hatchett a negro, died in Richmond, Virginia, few days ago. aged 32 years. An obituary, signed by nine survivors, appears in the Dispatch of that town. It mentions that he taught himself to write, and wrote with his left hand and from left to right boldly and legibly. Also that his em- ployer trusted him to keep books, ex- anime bills, mark prices, sell goods, and Con one occasion, when Spencer was a boy of 1S) to go on journey with $1,174 in his custody. Also that nearly four l hundred people were present at his funeral, including most of the premi- nent and influential citizens, some of whom placed flowers upon his grave" The Richmond paper has an editorial on the Hatehett obsequies It thinks no such sight was ever seen up North. Not one," it remarks, ''of the white men who attended Spencer Hatchett's $ funeral thought that in doing so he was lowering his dignity
 All of which is cheering and of good omen. If the South can get ahead and keep ahead of the North in proper treat
 ment of the negro it will do something to atone for the way it treated him be- fore the war.

= ---- = - GOOD DAYS.

During the last few days human be- ings in this part of the world have had show in the matter of weather, and they have enjoyed it exceedingly Some have been afraid that corn
 wouldn't get all it was entitled to, but
 thus far no complaint has been heard
 from corn and it may be that it is
 satisfied with what has been done for
 it. It ought to be, and if it has not
 the spirit of the grunting animal which
 it fats it is.
 The autumn has opened in a beau- tiful way. Such bright, clean, clear
 and smooth days as Sunday and Mon
 day are not often seen outside the glor-
 ious climate of California, and they
 would do credit to even that wondrous article. New Haven was every bit as
 gay as Los Angeles or San Diego yes terday, Everybody was out and hay ing good time. The swift fiery char lots lent life and dash to the scene, and there was unlimited cheerful bus tie and good-nature.
 But the poor elms! We have not done our duty by our old and faithful friends. They stand dejected in the bright sunshine and they cannot take their wonted part in our gayety. Formerly it pleased them to gently and gleefully futter when the town was full of sunshine and animation, but they are in sad plight now And as the autumn grows golden they cannot 1 be as they have been in other golden days. It is a pity and a shame, We should have helped them and warded l off the evil that has befallen them They have good cause as they whis- | per together in the night after their l ancient fashion to sadly complain of
 the ingratitude and the disloyalty of the human beings who owe them firm | and faithful friendship.

George Eliot,s Place in Literature.

If George Eliot were not a writer of romance, she was nothing at all in the front ranks of Victorian literature.
 With all her powers of mind, her mas tery of language, her immense stores of knowledge and supreme culture. she gave to the world nothing of great mark, acknowledged and known as hers, except her famous romances; for, as we shall presently see, we cannot count any of the poems as of great mark. But as a writer. of romance George Eliot differs essentially from all the other writers of romance in her own or preceding generations. Most cer- tainly she was not born romancer; she had no spontaneous gift of telling stories, no irrepressible genius that way. Now, all the great romancers have been born to it, as Robinson Cru soc was born to the sea, or as Turner was born to paint. Though Scott puo- lished novels late. he had begun Wa

SOME CHEERING F4CTS

Talk to a southern man abohft the rights and the treatment given the ne-
 gro in the North and he will tell you
 that the South is doing better by the
 negro than the North is, and that the
 talk of the North about the negro is
 largely through hat. That there is some ground for this notion cannot be
 denied. It is fact that there are few cities in the South where the
 negroes do not enjoy larger measure of business prosperity and local political preferment than in
 the large cities of the North. Even in
 Texas black policemen, letter carriers,
 mail route agents and the like are to be met with at every point, while Charles ton and Jacksonville maintain compa- nies of black firemen. A complaint made by the editor of the Augusta (Georgia) Weekly Sentinel is interest ing. Says the Sentinel: In many cities surrounding us, and in every adjoining State except Alabama, the colored peo-
 pie seem to be prospecting far better in 1 the way of municipal and business priv ileges than in Augusta. Look which
 way you will, we see negroes on boards
 of education, members of council, po-
 Iicemen, etc. In Jacksonville, Florida
