HR. HaPIs AGAIN l!EaaD FROM

Some years, ago Mir. c. Wood Davis of Kansas startled the wheat-srowing. and wheat-eating world by figuring out conclusively that by 1896 wheat would be E or So a bushel. He was able to make this q certainty by allowing a
 certain number of wheat-eaters to a certain amount of wheat and saying that in 1896 there would be just enough wheat-eaters and just enough wheat to
 make his calculations successful But somehow or other his predictions didn't work. Instead of rising the price of wheat kept going down, and nobody would have known in 1896 that wheat
 was paying any attention to Mir Davis. But undeterred by his experience MT. Davis is at it again. and he writes in
 the Forum about "The Impending De- ficiency of Breadstuffs'' He now sets forth that the bread eaters" who are only the populations of European line age inhabiting North and South Amer ica, Australasia, Russian Asia, South Africa and Europe, and who numbered
 in 1871 371 000, ,000, now number 51O, ,OO0,- GOO. On the other hand, the area of land sown in wheat, which at the for mer date was in round numbers 125, ,0O0, . 900 acres, is at the latter date 15S, 900 900. That is to say, while the bread-eating population has increased S75, the wheat
 area has increased but 256 per cent. The demand for wheat is more urgent
 than ever, while the demand for other bread-maAing grains--rye, spelt and
 maslin, and buckwheat-has fallen off, and the acreage devoted to them is less | than a quarter of century ago by per-
 centages rising from in the case of rye to 40 in the case of buckwheat. An ad dition to the wheat-bearing area of the world Mir Davis considers proba bla
 only from South America, pointing out
 that in the United States the area has actually diminished within the last fif teen years. Asiatic Russia he mentions only to dismiss by quoting from 8 Rus sian authority the statement that Si- ber;a ever could produce enough wheat and rye to feed it's own population. Australasia, in connection with this as-
 pect of the question. he does not men,
 tion at all His final conclusion is suffi- i ciently startling. It is that ''an aver
 age yield from the acres now employed
 would be 275,00OO00 bushels less than
 present needs" and that "the greatest
 crop. ever grown would not meet pres ent requirements

AUDACIOUs IYFTEELIIEN,

There doesn't appear to be any limit to the audacity of those bicyclists. They will ride closely around and sometimes right over any pedestrian who happens to be in their way. They do not have a proper and a judicious fear of the rolling carriage or the whizzing trolley car. They have even been known to refuse to give limited and unlimited express trains the right of way. There fore it is not surprising, though it is painful, to read that members of the wheeling tribe have shown their quality by riding iii front of and beside the royal carriage of Emperor William the Sudden of Germany, much to the an- noyance of the War Lord. We do not read that anything has been done to them yet, but it does not seem that in a land where children are put in prison for 'sassing" the emperor wheelmer who impede and trouble his royal prog ress will escape. If they do it will only be another illustration of the impunity with which their kind have aiidaciously wheeled in all the civilized world and q part of the unciviized world If it isn't lese majesty to wheel around an emperor until he is distracted it is hard to tell what lese majesty is

The little town elections" were as little as usual yesterday, and as usual, there were some surprising Hops"
 But the Hops" don't mean much, ex- cept to the "outs" and 'ins." The vote
 on the constitutional amendment was light, and in New Haven only about
 one-tenth of the voters took the trouble to go to the polls. But all but 154 of those who did go believe that people
 who want to vote ought to be able to read any article of the constitution or any section of the statutes of this State in English before being admitted elec- tors. What 154 citizens of New Haven were thinking about when they voted against the amendment doth not ap- pear, but perhaps there would be about that number who would vote to have Choctaw taught in the public schools.
 One hundred and fifty-four queer peo- pie in two thousand is not very large
 proportion, as things go, and we can congratulate ourselves that more did
 not take advantage of the chance to
 reveal themselves yesterday. The big | majority for the amendment shows that New Haven is all right for what the

the banks would successfully interfere With the passage upward of the boats. It was not so very easy to hit a gun boat, as the successful passage of the British expedition up the Nile the other day showed, when the batteries along the shore were well provided with good cannon. He thought that it would be good thing If England would send a larger number of gunboats to reinforce the North American squadron for use in Just such an emergency. Treaty stipu- lations between the two countries now limited the number of gunboats which might be kept on the lakes to three, and the only way in which England could make sure of having a supply of these ready for an emergency was to have them attached to the squadron at HaH- fax. His 1ordship rather intimated that he disapproved the provisions of the treaty which restricted the number Of gllnboats on the lakes. and that he would be glad to see it abrogated'- Montreal Letter in the Boston Tran script.

DEFENSES OF THE DOMINION

In Case of War With the Statcs-What
 Lord Chelmsford Thinks About the
 Possibilities of Such Struggle
 Lord Chelmsford. G. c. B., retired general in the British army, arrived in Montreal from London yesterday on an interesting mission This mission is an inspection of the lines of defense be- tween Canada and the United States and a general survey of the means which Canada could command to resist invasion from the south in the event of possibla war between the United States and Great Britain. Lord Chelmsford will spend a few days in this city, and will then visit Ottawa, Kingston, Toronto and the Niagara frontier. The latter, he considers, would be the crucial point in the event of war. and he will spend sev- eral days between Toronto the Welland canal and Buffalo. His lordship disclaims any official character for his mission, and says his inspection of the military resources of the Dominion is merely for the purpose of satisfying his own per sonal curiosity. As a military man, he

 In full length wraps the redingote is popular These are made of light wool materials in checks, plaids and solid colors. It is the very worst taste to al- low yourself conspicuous check or plaid for city wear, and the safest selec- ton will be stone gray, brown in the darker leaf shades, and dull greens. These garments are most welcome in their reappearance. There is nothing more generally useful. They serve for travelling or street wear, or even to cover pretty party ftock in case your wardrobe does not allow you an opera or evening cloak. Indeed, if you are likely to need down to-the-heel cover ing even to so over evening garments, you may have your redingote made Of silk instead of wool, thus rendering it more dressy for evening use and still not taking from it's suitability for other wear. Remember, though, if you buy silk, nothing but good quality is worth your dressmakers handling.
 All these redingotes are not belted, and some few of them arc made to wear in either way. The belted ones almost invariably show bloused effect, either all around or just i'll front. Those not belted are frequently boxed from the shoulders in front and slightly fitted at the back. Some exaggerated models show both front and back boxed sauarely but the effect is as bad as it sounds. ;fIOHfsl IF.
