KANSAS PACIFIC CONTROL.
1t Is Believed 1t VIII Go to the Nor
gan Syndicate.

OMAHA, Nov. 1O.-Regarding the
Kansas Pacific, the sale of which has
been postponed to Dec. 16, the officials
of theepnion Pacific feel assured that
the Reorganization committee will Be-
cure The road. They profess the firm
est belief that the Union Pacific reor-
ganization committee can successfully
buck the Chicago & Alton or the Mis-
souri, Pacific and Iron Mountain system
for the control Of the Kansas Pacific.
They base their belief on the amount
of the first mortgage bonds of the Kan
sas Pacific held by the Union Pacific
reorganization committee and by the
many pieces of property which would
be in dispute should any purchaser but
the Union Pacific reorganization COM
mittee secure control.

IN SESSION.

HARRISBURG, Pa, Nov. 10.-The
National Grange, Patrons Of Hus-
bandry, convened today in the supreme
court chamber. Delegates from al
most all the states represented in the
national body were present. National
Master ]. H. Brigham, assistant sec
rotary Of agriculture, who arrived from
Washington last night, was in the
chair. The morning session was short
and was devoted to preliminaries.
The report of the treasurer, Mrs. E. S.
Mcdowell showed the finances of the
order to be in a satisfactory condition,
with a large amount Of funds on hand
than the previous year Secretary
Trimble's report showed 141 new
oranges and nearly 100 reorganiza-
lions. The reports of state masters
were received. The credentials COM
mittee made a partial report and the
grange proceeded to receive the reports
Of its officers. Worthy Master Brig
ham submitted his annual report. Mr..
Brigham said that the condition Of the
order was very encouraging. One

The "Solid south"

Owing to certain economic and political
conditions that arc too familiar to be do
tailed the states from the Potomac to tho
Rio Grande for long period opposed
united front to the advance OF modern civ.
ilization, waged a protracted war for tho
preservation Of their own institutions and
the establishment Of their autonomy, and
when defeated and restored to the Union
on now basis gave their adherence so
entirely to one political party and to ono
set of political principles rs to earn for
themselves tho sobriquet of the "solid
south. Now, a "sold south" would seem
to presuppose a homogeneous southern
people cocxtensive with the geographical
or rather political area thus designated,
but to draw this inference would DO to
make mistake almost equal to that made
by the European who thinks Chicago a
three or four hours ride from New York
and confounds our eastern and western
populations. If political opinions and pref
udices be not taken into account, tho typ
pical Charlestonian will be found to differ
as much from the average inhabitaDt OF
Nashville as the typical New Yorker does
from his rival Of Chicago. The Virgnian
and the Georgian have points Of contact,
to be sure, but they differ radically in
many important respects just as radically
as q citizen of New Jersey does from
citizen of Wisconsin. w. p. Trent in At

distinguish, for instance between the
signs of temper and fineness Of will (for
indeed many of these facial Indications re-

totally different attributcs), we can form

Gigantic Antarctic IceberCs.

"The snowfall Of each year adds a new
stratum to this Ice cap, which is as distin-
guishable to the eye as is the annual accre-
ton of a forest treo," writes General A.
w. Greedy, U. S. A, describing in The
Ladies' Home journal What There Is at
the South Pole " "Thus in centuries have
accumulated on antarctica these SHOWS,
which by processes Of pressure, thawing
and regulation have formed an ice cap
that in places exceeds g. 600 feet in thick
ness. Through the action of various forces
that of contraction and expansion by
changing temperature being, perhaps, the
most potent-ths ice cap creeps steadily
seaward and projects into the ocean a per-
pendicular front from 1000 to 1000 feet
in height. The temperature of the sea wa
ter being about 20 degrees, the fresh water
ice remains unwasted and the ice barrier
plows the ocean bed until through flotation
in deep water disruption occurs and tho
tabular berg ia formed. These borgs are Of
a size that long taxed the belief of men,
but 1t Is now we'll established that bergs
two miles square and 1000 feet In thick
ness are not rare Others are as large as
80 miles in length and some nearly 5000
feet in thickness, their perpendicular, sun

above the sea-"

VARIATIONS. IN ACORNS.
No Two Seeds Nor Even Two Leaves Ex-
aCtly Alike.

1t Is said that in individual trees scarce
ly two leaves can be found exactly alike.
What is true of leaves is true of Seeds and,
indeed, of every Part of tree. 1t is also
true of the behavior of trees during their
life career. In acorns especially one may
note a remarkable difference in their be-
havior. Some species of acorn will preserve
their vital power without much difficulty
for couple of years, while others can
rarely be found with life after few
months Some when put into the earth
will remain months before sprouting,
while others will sprout before they arc
fairly out of their cups on the trees.
The acorns of the live oak of the south
often sprout before they fall The process
of terminating is among the most remark
able of all American trees. The root push
cs out from the acorn to Il distance OF
many inches before it enters the ground,
the root then goes into the earth, while the
bud or plumulc asccnds to form the incipi
ent tree trunk. The young tree Of the live
oak will frequently be distance of six
inches from the acorn, In this respect the
behavior of this species Of oak corresponds
nearly with what is almost universal In
monocotyledonous seeds
Another early sprouter Is the common
white oak. These have not been known to
sprout on the tree but they scarcely reach
the ground before the little radicle pre-
pares to enter the Garth 1t does not wait
TO get to the surface of the earth before do
ing this On shelves or boxes where there
is some number of them together the whole
will be mass of roots before n few weeks
after gathering. On the other hand, the
nut of the bur oak will remain long
time before showing any disposition to
sprout. 1t is these varying characteristics
which make rules for the transportation
of seeds difficult. Each kind has to have u
method of its own. So far as the two oaks
are concerned it has been found better to
send young plants long distances than the
acorns themselves. --Mcchan' Monthly.

impression that they wro bored with her

ly vivacious and sensitive, alternate quick

which may be taken to mean more than 1t
actually does. We ought to judge Others
by their deeds principally; by their words
to certain extent; by their looks last of
all. Who among us has not smarted Sc

"lookcd cross" or "haughty" or "disa-
grecable" when she was merely conccaling
some sorrow-and flatterng herself that
she was doing it very well-swallowing
modification or only bearing very bud
headache? Again, many women are cold
in manner because they arc shy, or because
they are uncertain how far to go in tho
way of making advances. We do not care
to wear our hearts upon our sleeves unless
we are sure that there are no davis about
to peck ut them. Indeed in the case of
many of us it would be safe to paraphrase
the dct,lm of the willy French diplomatist
ind say that "Faces We're given us in or

when there is doubt let us give each
other the benefit of it.-London Lady.

Some Queer Ideas About Finger Nails

The Japanese have some curious ideas
about their finger nails. One of them Is
10 the effect that they must not be cut be-
fore starting on journey, lest disgrace
befall the person before he reaches his des
tination. Neither should they be cut at
night, lest cats claws should grow out.
TO throw nail parings into the fire Is to
invite some great calamity. If while trim

which must be lifted out by the teeth

bite is to be taken, at the other, will

ANOTHER SCRAP.

On Wednesday evening a difficulty
occurred between prominent citizen
of Lower Boise and one of Caldwell's
leading business men. The first men
toned was in his buggy about to drive
out of town. After an exchange of
compliments with the latter, who
stood near the buggy, the alien struck
the native several times over the head
with his buggy whip. to which usage
the latter objected and forthwith
wrenched the whip from the hand of
the former. In the meantime the
team began to rear and plunge and
there was danger of mu CHI damage,
observing which the native kindly
handed the whip back to his assailant
and told him he had better drive home.
This remarkable GOODNESS exhibited in
the face of much anger averted, no
doubt, a cataclysm that would have
annihilated the gentleman from the
lower country. This isno fable. Coun-
ty papers please copy.
