WHEAT CROP SITUATION,
Estimated Deficiency of 14.OOO,OOO Quar-.
ters In the Worlds Supply.

The Mark Lane Express, of London, re-
viewing the crop situation, says:
"The weather has been adverse to tho
completion OF the harvest. and the guam
titv OF grain still out Is considerable.
''The French wheat crop is estimated at
81 ,0OO,O 600 quarters by the chief writer's Of
the Paris press. Correspondents OF Eng
lish business firms state that the crop will
amount to from 33,OOO.0O0 to sc, ,OO0, 900
quarters. The Austro- Hungarian crop Is
stated to be II 600, 900 quarters. II this Is
true, 1t adds greatly to the gravity of the
situation.
"The American crop is reckoned by care
ful judges to be 6S 800, 900 quarters, or II, =
900, 900 quarters improvement, to Offset "a
decline Of 5000, 900 quarters in Russia and
G,0OO 900 to 10000, 900 quarters in France.
"All the figures point, therefore, to de-
flciency in the worlds supply OF IA ,OOO, 900
quarters. Should tho demand be actually
as large as this, the stores of old wheat will
be used up, and crisis OF great serious
ness will only be prevented by generally
good prospects for the spring OF 1898. We
are not, however entitled to argue that
such prospects will be more than the aver

There will be no more "rushes" at the
University OF California IL President Kel-
logg s latest mandate Is exercised.
Half dazed, his jaw broken, his face
bleeding mass, Benjamin Kurtz, newly
elected freshman, was found wandering
about the campus after the rush between
the two lower classes. In the struggle
some one put his heel on Kurtz's face, and
as result he is disilgured for life and may
have sustained injury Of the brain. An ex-
animation showed that piece OF flesh had
been torn from one nostril. The upper lip
hung only by a shred and the rpgged ma
ture of the scar made the injury all tho
moro serious. The front teeth were gone.
Four teeth had been Knocked out OF the
lower jawbone, in which they had been en-
bedded, and part Of the bone was broken
out with them.
Both tho upper and lower jaws were
smashed and the flesh OF all the face
crushed and bleeding. There were two
other serious casualties.

A STORY OF TAMAGNO.

Several years ago, about ten, when the tenor Tamagno was down in Chili, wealthy young woman made him gorgeous present. Ii was gold cigar ette case literally incrusted on both sides with diamonds, his initials being formed on one side with emeralds hers on the other with rubies It was, perhaps the most costly cigarette case of it's kind ever manufactured.
 Tamagno is a tremendously big fel- low, with a. chest like that of Bob Fitz- simmons and voice like that of the Bull of Bashan. He is said to be a most frugal creature. Whether or not he reciprocated the Chilian lady's pass ion don't know; possibly he didn't for all great tenors are cold. At any rate, he left Chili at the end of his season, and when next he appeared there the lady was married and the mother of a flock of young Chilians. He had kept the cigarette case, however; carried 1t always with him in the upper left pock- ct of his waistcoat.
 The lady who gave him the cigarette case became a widow a year or so ago and last February was in Rome. So was Tamagno.
 It is said they came upon other at a carnival ball on the eve of last Ash Wednesday. Mighty few words were spoken. The lady drew out a stiletto and promptly made a lunge at the ten-

the other hand, the ratio of pauper ad- missions, excluding transfers and idiots has gone up from 4.2O per 10000 in lSS6 when private and pauper admissions were first separated, to 5,35 in 1895. If the cases of congenital insanity be eX- cluded, the proportion per cent. of first attacks to total admissions has gone up from 66,5 in 1878 to 70,1 in 1895, and the ratio per 10000 of the population from 3.3 to 40. The ratio was, how ever, lower In 1895 than in 1893, and has undergone considerable fluctuations in its course. The commissioners show that the census returns give one per son of unsound mind to every 320 of the population In 1871, one to every 9O7 in 1881, and one to 29S in 1891; but in each of the three decennial periods there was a wide discrepancy between the num- bers reported to the census authorities CTS. On the whole, the commissioners conclude that the increase in insanity is more apparent than real, and that
 the high figures are due chiefly to more careful registration, to accidental redu- plication, wider views as to what con- | stitutes insanity, etc.

THE ANrIoI1TY OF MAN.

Our geologists rarely use the term "quaternary," By European writers 1t is understood to mean the period which followed the Tertiary, and includes the present time. Achaeologically it is di- vided into two epochs, the older inclu- ding the pre- glacial, the glacial and the post-glacial ages, all characterized by a chipped-stone industry; the latter be- ginning with the neolithlc culture and continuing till now.
 Professor Gabriel de Mortlllet, in the Revue Mensuelle," of the Paris School of Anthropology (January 15), succinct- ly explains these divisions and sets forth with his usual clearness the typi- cal products and the fauna which char acterizes them. He has found no req son materially to modify the opinions he advanced in his earlier works, and still maintains that careful study of the geological data bearing on the question of the antiquity of man does not allow us to assign it more recent date than two hundred and thirty thou sand years ago.-Science

market for the metal have been obliged to discover nearly all of its uses, invent methods of handling it, and build the works for turning out the finished pro- duct. Thus far it has nearly displaced nickel In the arts, and 1t bids fair to eventually displace brass for most pur- poses, except where exposed to a heat of over 300 degrees. It is largely used for cooking utensils and keeps bright. It is used in laboratories, and for the handles of surgical instruments, not only for its lightness, but because 1t Is not affected by the antisepties used. It Is coming rapidly into use for bicycle parts. Dentists use 1t for plates for false teeth, and it has been used to re- place a broken jaw. One of it's latest uses is for lithographic plates instead of stones, cheapening the process. In electrical apparatus 1t is useful on ac- count of its non-magnetic quality. In Europe it is being used to reduce the | weight of military accoutrements.

A modification of this idea is shown in the accompanying picture, and car ries the mentioned recommendations to the full degree. The material was gray satin covered with cream lace. the seam of the yoke being covered with ruch- ing of white silk muslin. Three similar ruches trimmed the lace near the hem, but on the bodice, which was also lace covered gray satin, the ruchings ran from shoulders to belt A chiffon iabot concealed the fastening, three chiffon
 ruffies relieved the plainness of the
 sleeves, and the wide belt was cerise satin
 Skirts Shirred on to the edge of a
 bodice belt are extremely pretty. The
 bodice thus outlines the figure from just below the bust line to just above the hips. the skirt falling very full from there Thus the wide hips, at
 present rather favored by fancifully fashionable women, are secured, and the contrasting small waist demanded is emphasized.
 Russet colored rubbers have already been made for children, but not until
 this season has there been demand for them for adult wear. They are made
 most carefully and are so light that | when once on they are heardly felt.
 It is suggested craftily that the polish
 of the rubber is much more easily | maintained than that of the russet shoe, and that many summer girls may find the excuse of dampness serve for the almost constant wear of these cas- | fly cared for foot coverings. The rub Der matches so exactly the shade of the russet shoe that the fact of a rubber | being worn is hardly to be noticed FLORETTE.
