why the Days Are Longer.

A story told by Lord Peel shows
that fine culture is already descend.
ing upon our masses. At one Of the
large schools in Birmingham a boy
was asked, "What is the reason why
the days are longer in summer than
in winter?' He replied at once, "It
is the property of all natural objects
to elongate under the pressure of
heat" There you see the complete
result of our modern training in the
principles of science.
The boy had grasped a funda-
mental mechanical law taught him
in physical Or chemical class, and
his mind, possibly an unusually
alert mind, had been trained not
merely to learn, but to apply. It is
a mere detail that the particular ap-
plication was grotesque. Lord Peel's
story represents typical result of
that instruction in the general prin-
ciples of elementary science which
we dignity by the name of technical
instruction in England. It turns
the stolid billiards of the last gener-
atoms into the new generations of
bright imbeciles, facile, glib and
contented.-London Spectator. Z

Bank Notes In Bibles.

It has happened not infrequently
that wealthy people of eccentric
character have chosen to conceal a
portion of their money in the family
Bible, where it has been discovered
by chance long after their decease.
A young nobleman who was in
financial difficulties some time since
had occasion to refer to the family
Bible for date there recorded. In
so doing he came across a. number
of Bank of England notes, amount
ing collectively to a considerable
sum, which more than met his LA
bilities. Then he recalled his moth
er's dying words that "help might
be found in the Bible when all other
sources failed. But he had paid
small heed to the injunction and
certaily ever dreamed of so practi-
cal a .fulfl1ment of the words refer
red to.
A needy student purchased an in
teresting old Bible at a secondhand
booksellers some years ago and was
delighted to discover bank notes to
the value of 81, 600 folded between
the sacred pages.
Another ancient Bible was found
to contain notes to the extent of

TWO HYPocRlTEs.


She sat in her coy chamber,
With the curtains all drawn tight.
Curled up in great big rocker,
Fair and sweet in the soft lamplight
A bonbon box ON the table
With the choicest of sweets was filed,
Which she daintily nibbled while writing
The words that her lover thrilled:
ooh, long for you now, my darlingl
Without you my life seems drear;
There is never bit of comfort
For me unless you are near!"
And her lover read the letter
As he sat in his bachelors den,
With his feet cooked up on the manteL
In the usual way of men;
With box of cigars at his elbow
And pipe and glass near by,
And the smoke clouds wreathed about hin
AS he echoed her lonely cry:
''Oh, long for you now, MY darltngl
Without you my life seems drear;
There is never bit Of comfort
For me unless you are nearl"

BEATS ALL RECORDS.
Value of Exports of Products of the
United States for the Past Year
Will Exceed $SOO,OOO,OOO.

Washington, June 13.-The farmers of the
United States ere drawing upon other parts
OF the world for more money in the fiscal
year which ends this month than in any
preceding year in the history of the coun-
try. Even the high-water mark of 1892,
when our exports of agricultural products
amounted to $799, 32S,232, will be surpassed
by the record Of the year which closes
With this month. The preliminary reports
OF May expectations which have reached
the bureau of statistics make it quite APP
parent that the agricultural exports of
the year will be considerably in excess of
$500, 100000, the total for the year being
likely to reach $685., 0OO, 900. Never before have
the exports of agricultural products
reached the $S00,00 900 line, and never but
twice have they been as much as $500, 000,-
900, the two occasions in which they passed
the 70O,O00,000 line being in 1881 and 1892.
Compared with the last fiscal ) ear the in
crease In exports of agricultural products
will be fully $3.50, goo, and compared with
the preceding year the increase will be
over $3.50, 1000, while the total will be fully
90 per cent. in excess of that of the fiscal
year 1895. 10.
In breadstuffs alone the exports of the
year will amount, to nearly 81 600 for
each business day and will be more than
$10O, 100000 in excess of last years exports
of breadstuffs. Nearly all articles classed
as breadstuffs have participated in this
increase. or wheat the value of the eX-
ports for the fiscal year 1898 will be more
than double those of the fiscal year 1887;
while the increase in flour will be nearly 50
per cent. and of corn nearly so per cent. in
value. May exports Of corn were larger
than those of any other month in the his
tory of the country, while the total exports
of corn for the year for the first time will
pass the 2CO,0O0,O00 bushel line, the total in
only three preceding years having reached
loo, OOO, OOOebushels. Cornmeal, oats and oat-
meal and rye show striking increase, the
gain in oatmeal being more than 60 per
cent. over last year and that of oats 100
per cent, while in rye the gain is also
phenom enelly large.
"Provisions,'' in which term are included
beef, hog and dairy products, there is also
marked increase, the total exports of
provisions for the year being likely to reach
$16O, 100000 in value. Most of this increase,
however, is in hog products, exporta tons Of
bacon, which. were 34,1S7,147 in value last
year, being likely to reach $44,OOO,OOO this
year, and lard showing a similar increase,
being likely tosreach s37 900 this year, or

FALL OF MANILA.
Hay Telegrnphs from
London That the spaniards Have
Surrendered the City.

Washington, June -'Hong-Kong
advices say that Manila has surren-
dered'' This dispatch was received at
midnight from Ambassador Hay at
London. That was the whole story, but
it is taken for granted at the navy de-
partment that Ambassador Hay re-
ceived his news from official sources
in, London and that it is correct. The
news was at once carried over to the
white house and caused intense delight.
Direct news from Admiral Dewey had
been expected, as it was known he sent
dispatch boat to Hong Kong, and il
was presumed that by this time Dewey
and Aguinaldo between them must
have forced the city to surrender.
If it proves to be true, the first army
expedition to the Philippines will have
nothing to do but to occupy the town
and prevent the insurgents making re-
prisals, and the result may be the sub
stitution of volunteers for some of the
regulars now under Merritt at San
Francisco. No one here doubts the
news, the briefness of the dispatch from
1AAd OiSSdoOA Lay Wing tdhCI DIS oil CYL
dence of it's reliability, and the navy de-
partment is congratulating itself in the
belief that Dewey has capped the eli
max of his great victory by hauling
down the Spanish flag and running up
the stars and stripes without waiting
for the slowmoving army, just as Samp-
son landed at Guantanamo while the
army was fleeing from ghost ships at
Tampa.
It has been believed all along that
Dewey would capture Manila with the
assistance of the Insurgents, and it is
hoped Sampson may do the same thin g.
The last full reports from Dewey were
to the effect that Manila was at his
mercy, with supplies running short and
the insurgents completely investing the
city, and for this reason the news by
way of London is received as true. The
cable from Hong-Kong runs around the
Indian peninsula and British official
radvices have the right of way, so it is
natural to suppose the British foreign
Office would first receive the glorious
news.

Private Elevators.

Judge Bum, of st. Paul, decides that
private elevators are not amenable to
the warehouse commission. In the
case against the Cargill company the
court finds that the elevator was used
for the purpose of storing and hand
ling the grain of the company and not
that of other persons, and that, there
fore, even though it was situated on
the way of the railroad, the commits
sion had no right to exact license.
In addition to the holding that the
law is unconstitutional as relating to
private elevators, it is also held that
it is valid so far as it relates to public
elevators or stOrehOuses.
