ST. PAUL, March 13.-The local COM

encampment opposes a change in dates
as suggested by General Walker. The
reasons are many, principal among
them being that arrangements have
been made for holding the biggest state
fair Minnesota has ever had that week.
Another objection is that the school
houses can be had the first week of
September, but might not be available
at a later date. The change will prob

This Years Production Expected to Ex-
coed by Far That of 1898.


1t is expected that the output Of BIZ
cycles in this country for 1895 will far
exceed that Of 1895. 1t is said that
American manufacturers are prepared
to produce this year, if they can get,
when they need them, sufficient supplies
Of steel tubing and other material, 500
600 bicycles. The output last year was,
approximately, 40, 900 bicycles. 1t is
thought that the actual production this
year will reach $50, 600. 1t is more like
ly to exceed that number.
Few wheels are imported, not enough
TO cut any figure here. Our exports are
still not great. American manufacturers
have been too busy supplying the home
demand to make much effort to supply
other markets, but they continue to in
crease. We are selling more bicycles in
Mexico and more in South America,
principally in the Argentine Republic.
Our exports to Europe are also increas-
ing, the greater number going to France
and Belgium, though we sell some
wheels in other continental countries and
in Great Britain. In Paris enough

INSTRUCTION FOR NURSES.

PRACTICAL POINTS IN NURSING. BY
Emily A. NJ. stoney. Philadelphia: W. B.
Saunders, publisher; 460 pages; clothbound,
price 81 rs.
This is comprehensive and exceedingly
valuable work of its kind. 1t is intended for
nurses in private practice and contains rules
for feeding the sick, recipes for invalid foods
and beverages, weights and measures, dose
list, and full glossary of medical terms and
nursing treatment. The authoress is a gradu-
ate of the Training School for Nurses at Law
renee, Mass, and superintendent of the Train
ing School for Nurses at Carney Hospital,
South Boston, Mass. In popular language and
in the shortest possible form is explained the
entire range of private nursing as distin-
guished from hospital nursing, and 1t is
attempted to instruct the nurse how best to
meet the various emergencies of medical and
surgical cases when distant from medical or
surgical aid, or when thrown on the nurses
own resources. The discussions in the book,
being based on q series of lectures delivered
before the Carney Training School for Nurses,
will, it is suggested, serve as a textbook for
student nurses and useful teaching-book for
those occupying positions as teachers in
training-schools, and the volume may prove
interesting to the "home" nurse who wishes
to comprehend something of the purposes OF
the different methods adopted in nursing
treatment.

AS Professor Jordan says in the preface to
the volume before US, it is made up sketches
reprinted from various periodicals and coming
under the general head of popular science
Most OF the articles have been freely retouched
since their original appearance. The book
corresponds in part to the first edition of "sci-

the articles are the same, being printed from
the same plates with few verbal changes.
For certain others OF the first edition-the ac-
counts of "Agassiz at Penikese," "The Fate of
Iciodorum," "The Story OF Strange Land"
and esHow the Trout Came to California;
articles written since 1887 have been substi-

THE CENTURY.

Among the contents of the October Century
are several articles bearing upon topics that
are now prominently before the public. "a

a scien tific and suggestive paper of eontempo-
raneous interest. Anoth article of immedi-
ate interest is paper on John P. Hale, GA

ciate on the Free-Soil ticket, the Hon. George

their education, training, manners and
nature, by Tn. BENTON (Mme. Blanc), is pro-
fusely illustrated by the noted delineator of
children, Boutet de Monvel. Professor Sloane
brings his life of Napoleon to q conclusion
in strikingly illustrated chapters on the
battle Of Waterloo and the exile to st. Helena,
and the Hon. John A. Kasson in "Open Let
ters" places a high estimate on the character
of the work. "Glave in the Heart of Africa
is the third paper from the journals and
photographs of the late E. J. Glaye, and is de-
voted to the better known region between
Lakes Bangweolo and Tanganyika. where he
had his toughest experiences and witnessed
the bsleaguerment of the last slavers' strong
hold in the territory Of the Congo Free State.
HARPER's
Harper's Magazine contains the first In
stallmenr of Mr.. du Maurier's long-expected
novel, "The Martian." The opening scenes
are laid in boys school in Paris in the early
fftles, and the hero is introduced at the very
beginning of his career. 1t seems not unlikely
that Mr.. du Maurier, following the example of
Fielding and Thackeray, will attempt in sThe
Martian' to portray the character of man
in the same catholic spirit in which ''Tom
Jones" and "Pendennis" were created. OF

PROCESSES OF REASONING.

THE METHOD OF DARWIN. By Frank
Cramer: Chicago, A. G. McClurg & Co., pub
fishers. For sale by a. NJ. Robertson; cloth,
price 81
As rule, says this author, scientific men are
SO deeply engrossed in their investigations
that they rarely undertake to discuss method,
and this attempt to analyze the method en-
pioyed in the biological sciences arose from the
belief that the direct study of scientific
method, as it is illustrated by the works of the
accepted masters, is worthy of far more atten-
tion than is usually accorded to it. "The logi-
cal processes involved and the nature of the
difficulties met with in scientific investigation
are the same as in the practical affairs of life
The fundamental processes of reasoning are
the same everywhere; and it cannot but be
helpful to study those processes as they are ap-
piled by master minds in fields where preci-
sion of method is peculiarly essential" Mr..
Cramers reason for selecting Darwlns works
as a basis for an analysis of scientific method
were, namely: "(1) The desire to confine the
discussion to the writings of single author,
in order 10 concentrate the readers attention
upon model; (2) the fact that Darwin's
works cover wide range of subjects, and can
be read and understood by those who have had
only moderate amount of scientific training;

was short story, tIt,' which won prize in
Vienna in 1882. The volume before us was
his first novel and it appeared in 1886 1t
cannot be regarded as a great novel, but on
the score of realism it is remarkable In some
chapters. The author describes, with un-
doubted accuracy many of his own actual ex-
periences. 1t was certainly test OF the
authors skill to have handled such material
as that upon which "Lou' is based in such
manner as not to have excited ridicule.
'Lou'' is the story of young Nubian slave,
bought in a market-place of Cairo by French
marquis and man of the world, who takes him
as valet to Paris. Lou is q simple child of
nature. with a great capacity for affection.
He loves his master and next after him the
masters dog, Zeppa. The Nubian boy and the
dog make the acquaintance of Lii, the rogu-
ish daughter of shoemaker who mistreats
her. Lii tries to teach the Nubian boy to love
ner, but she disappears just as her lessons are
beginning to be understood. Louis master
suicides and he then overhears Count Cabrera
and another intimate of the Marquis discuss
ing which one shall succeed to the ownership
of the Nubian and which to that of the dog.
Lou and Zeppa fee and run right into mena-
gerie, and their connection with it forms the
comedy fea ature Of the book. Soon again they
become outcasts. Footsore and starving, they
reach q fair near Paris where Zeppa loses his
freedom for stealing piece of meat and Lou
is turned out upon the highway. All seems
dark, when suddenly he encounters Lii again,
now diva with host OF admirers and among
them the Count Cabrera She taxes up
the Nubian, makes a place for him in
her household and tries to make Partisan
of him, but he still remains the simple savage
and her devoted slave. Cabrera and other
suitors of Lii (low called Mira) grow jealous.
