PHI BETA KAPPA.

The national council of the Phi Beta Kappa honorary fraternity has sent out to all the chapters two resolutions which it is hoped will result in the set clement of long discussed matter. These are first, that 1t is inexpedient to grant chapter of Phi Beta Kappa to any institution which does not grant in regular course the degree of
 Bachelor of Arts; and second, that it
 is inexpedient to confine the members
 in every chapter to graduates taking
 this degree. Until a few years ago the
 sentiment of these resolutions was the
 sentiment of the entire society, but re-
 gently owing to the rapid and prosper ous development of scientific courses and schools, it has proven more diff cult to ignore students in them. NOTES.

Savings Bank Brings Action to Re-

 Bridgeport, Feb. 15.-The Peoples Savings bank has brought suit against Frank Miller, trustee of the w. r. Swords Lumber company, and Mrs. Frances H. Cruttenden. The papers are returnable in the March term of the superior court. Some years ago Captain James H. Smith, the well known real estate and G. A. R. man, built a residence and secured mort gage of s2,40o from the bank. The Swords Lumber company built and supplied the material for it. Finally the Swords company took the property to pay for their debts, with the Peo- ples' Savings bank claim on it. The bank is now foreclosing. The mort gage against Mrs. Cruttenden is for $1, 1,000.
 The City Savings bank, through Hol- lister & Kelsey, have brought suit for foreclosure against John T. Lee and Martin J. Lee, jr., of parts unknown against James T. Lee of New Haven, Thomas Lee of Hartford, and Sarah E., and Mary Jane Lee, Catherine Me Keever and Edward McKeever and Mary Doyle, all of this city.

Australian Oysters.
Sun.

The Australian mollusk is of two
kinds-the mud oyster and the rock oys-
ter. The former grows to a larger size,
but the rock oyster is more generally
esteemed for flavor. Their names indi-
cate their place of growth. The rock
oysters love the beds and adjoining
rocks of tidal streams. They grow IN
clusters, in a variety of shapes anC
sizes. and each cluster is attached TO
something solid. Here they are alter
nately bathed in salt water and in fresh
or brackish. They are also left for
hours high and dry until the incoming
tide refreshes them. Nor do these oys-
tiers always select rocks on which to
dwell. These accommodating mollueks
may frequently be found adhering to
the roots and lower branches of the
mangrove and other trees which delight
in a sort of submarine residence 7, is
doubtless to this popularity that the
sailor referred when he wrote to his
mother at home telling the old lady. and
not untruly. that in Australia oysters
grow on trees.-Chambers Journal.

Winter In the Klondike,

An idea of the kind of weather that
the gold hunter of the Klondike must
face in winter may be gathered from
meteorological records made on the
Upper Yukon in the season of isSO-s1.
From the end of October a steady fall
of temperature set in. and in December
the thermometer touched CO degrees
Fahrenheit below zero! This was the
lowest. the record for January being Al
degrees. for February So degrees and
for March 43 degrees below zero. Dur
ing the last-named month the long cold
was broken. but the ice did not start in
the Yukon until the middle of May. and
for several weeks thereafter foat ting ice
prevented the navigation of the river

sUGAR-EATING NATIONS
Figures That Indicate Maritime Peo-
pie Excel I'm Its Consumption.

pie Excel In Its COnsump tiOn.
The sugar crop of the world amounts
m normal year to about 100000 tons,
Of which the larger part, about 4.500. 900
tons, comes from beets and the balance,
$500, 000 tons, from sugar cane. OF the
latter the largest proportion comes
from the West Indies and a large
amount from the Island of Java.
Among the countries producing beet
sugar, Germany comes first with about
one-third of the worlds crop; then Aus
tria with about as much, and then
France, Russia, and Belgium and Hol-
land together, with substantially the
same quantity.
In respect of the production of beet
sugar in the United States there has
been vast increase since the establish
ment of the Mckinley tariff in 1890.
The year previous the American prod
uct was $500 tons. Two years later it
was $4,000 tons. Four years later it was
10000 tons. Last year it was 43. ZOO tons.
and the product is on the increase. The
Mckinley tariff established between
July 1, 1891. and July 1, 1905, bounty
to be paid by the United States govern
ment to sugar producers, with a view of
stimulating the industry and compen-
sating those engaged in it for the
changes made in the duty upon import
ed sugar.
Among scientists the opinion has
been general that a moderate amount of
sugar, like a moderate amount Of salt,
should enter into the dietary of the
people Of each nation; but it is only
when the figures of the consumption of
sugar are examined that it is seen thai
the quantity consumed varies radically,
and it is a curious fact that in those
countries in which the maritime spirit
the spirit of navigation, commerce,
travel and colonization is strong,
there is very considerable consump-
ton of sugar per capita. whereas in
those countries in which these quail
ties are not predominant among the in
habitants the consumption is smaller.
In England, first among the maritime
nations of the world, the consumption
OF sugar is sc pounds year for each
inhabitant. In Denmark it is As, in
Holland 81, in France 30 and in Norway
and Sweden 25, whereas in Russia it is
only 10, in Italy. { in Turkey Z. in Greece
E and in Servia 4. The consumption
of sugar seems to have very little con-
nection with or relation to the produc-
ton of sugar, for in Austria, the sugar
product of which is large, the average
consumption is only 10 pounds. while
IN Switzerland, in which there is no pro-
duction to speak of. it is A. And an
other curious phase of the matter is
that there is great disparity in the
consumption of sugar in the two tea
drinking countries, England and Rus
STA. The large amount of sugar con-
sumed in France is attributed. IN part.
20 the fact that the French confection-
ers and candymakers. and more espe-
cially those doing business in the city
of Paris. use in their trade enormous
quantities of sugar in a year. adding

("Let Us Have Confidence in the Patriot
ism Of Our President at This Time.')
Britain might do us harm along GU,
coasts, from which it would take wears
TO recover; but we would recover. She
would lose Canada, and from that loss
Great Britain could never recover
Therefore. there is no danger of war
with Great Britain.
But, if we were overpowered by ether
nations. we might naturally expect
Great Britain to swoop down upon us
also. and take part in despoiling us, for
Great Britain is not our friend.
There is another nation which does
not fear to war with US, but does not
intend to have hostiiities with us. and
that is Russia, which has always been
our friend. II was Russian guns which
compelled Great Britain to keep hands
off. when we were in trouble among
ourselves in 1S61-5.
The fact stated by Gen. Miles. that we
are unprepared for war, is known to all
of the nations of the earth. Our forts
and ships are always open TO inspection,
and the agents of foreign nations have
looked us al! over.
That is the whole story in nutshell.
II develops the full meaning of the
speech OF Congressman Hit. of Illinois,
when he eloquently spoke IN the house
OF representatives. appealing to all of
our citizens to have confidence in the
patriotism of our president at this time.

.ul hill exactly the situation, as vieweo
by a military man. and it is hoped that
ample appropriations will soon be
made.
While the general was n ccG:ererce
with the committee on appropriations
he was reminded of the fact that up
wards of million dollars have been APP
propriated for ammunition during TIE
past two years. He replied that the
amount would be ample for the army
and for the coast defenses while we are
at peace; but in time of war. he said.
that amount would be Insignificant. He
| informed the committee tina. during the
last year of the civil war the army ex-
penses reached the enormous sum CT
81 100000 a day, or an approximation
| of that sum. The next war will cost
about half million dollars day from
the very beginning. Consequently the
money which has been appropriated for
| coast defense, so far as ammunition is
concerned, would scarcely last over
| night.
That shows, to begin with, what a
| costly thing war is; not to speak of the
| losses of life and the sutferings to be
entailed upon thousands o: bereaved
families. Consequently the wisest
course would be to avoid war, anyway,
| so long as we can do so with honor.
Gen. Miles was reminded by the COM
mittee on appropriations that $4,000
| 600 have been expended up to date for
seacoast defenses. He replied that, al
though that is true. the enormous sum
&c hot
should be done. Counting our Cana
dian, Mexican, gulf and Pacific and At.
| lantic boundaries, we have 10000 miles
| to defend; and that don't court in the
coast of our rich possessions in Alaska,
which must be defended in time of war
with any nation.
We are proud of our strength and
vastness, but We are apt to forget that
our very bigness makes US vulnerabl
and that it will cost almost fabulous
sums to prepare for war. The nations
| of Europe have powerful navies, and if
| two of those nations were allied against
US we would be in an unfortunate con.
| Gtioh, with our 10000 miles of bour.
daries unprepared for defense and our
great coast cities at the mercy of for
| eign fleets. 1t would take almost our
entire naval strength to defend New
York alone. and what would become Of
San Francisco and other important
ports?
Gen. Miles says that before we go tc
| war with Spain, we must be sure that
Germany and Austria will not join with
Spain and make triple power against
us. The very possibility of such a
contingency makes advanced states
men hesitate. That is what made Pres
ident Cleveland so conservative That
is what has made President Mckinley
so conservative. We may sneer at dam
ger; but sneers count for nothing in
the presence of powerful foe.
There is only one great nation that
really desires to avoid war with US,
and that is Great Britain; because,
while that power might injure our
coast cities with her powerful navy,
she would lose Canada speedily, and
that she cannot afford to do. Great
