BACHELORS must look to their
laurels if they expect to gain Office
hereafter. Charlotte Smith, of the
Woman's Rescue League Of New York
has inaugurated a campaign having
for its purpose the defeat Of every
bachelor who may run for an elective
office. She is tryin to get the princi-
pal labor organizations to cooperate
with her, on the representation that
the great competition of women in the
field of labor is due to the fact that
sixty per cent Of the men fail to mar
ry, and that the large number of wo-
men thus denied positions as house
wi are forced to seek employment
along the lines heretofore pursued bv

chine was for ced to print these millions

Men of science are too alarming and
terrible for anything. AT meeting
of American scientists in Detroit last
week DR.. Spencer, of Washington,
read a paper, and by cold, logical
reason proved that the course o; the
lakes was steadily changing. Reckon
long distance in the future, both
Prof. Gilbert and DR.. Spencer agreed
that the Niagara river and falls will
cease to exist, and that the course of
the water from the lakes will be over
what is now Chicago towards the Mis-
sissippi river. DR.. Spencer said: 1t
is spec tally important at Chicago, be-
cause that city stands on low plain
near the level of Lake Michigan, aud
close oy there is a divide SO low that
the waters of the Lake Michigan will
naturally find discharge to the Mis-
sissippi." The doctor asserted that
Detroit would be first to go, and that
the overwhe lining disaster at Johns
town would be as nothing compared to
the future catastrophe, unless the city
fathers made preparations to prevent
t. His basis of reckoning was that
the gorge at Niagara was forming at
the rate of foot year, and disaster
was certain.
