DEEP-SEA EVAPORATION.

The deep-sea expedition which start ed from the west coast of Ireland the other day will have important results, if
 expectations are realized. One school fined to the surface and bottom belts, and that the vast intermediate zone is devoid of life Another school holds that there is no such barren belt, and that the oceans are inhabited through out their whole depth. Sir John Mur- ray found during the Challenger expe- dition that, by increasing the depth at which he lowed his nets, he collected new animals in addition to those picked up during the passage of the nets through the surface waters. Dr. Gum ther remarked in his presidential ad- dress to the Linnaean society last year that the systematic employment of this method would yield trustworthy re- suits. MT. George Murray, Keeper of the Botanical department of the Nat ural History museum in London, has accordingly organized an expedition in order to test this plan thoroughly. He has chartered a steamer, which has been fitted with the necessary deep-sea gear. Work will begin at the edge of the one-hundredfathom platform, about thirty miles west of Dingle Bay
 The vessel will steam slowly for ten degrees westward. Continuous observ- ations will be made with a vertical chain of tow-nets, the length of which will be gradually increased until, when the depth of two thousand fathoms is reached, the series will include thirty eight tow-nets. Soundings and observ- atioRs of temperatures will be made, and, if time permit, some deep-sea trawling. Experiments with various forms of self-closing nets, including the Tanner net employed by Professor Agassiz, will be made for the sake of

fl FUTILE CROW.

Worcester, Massachusetts, will never be happy until it is more in the num- Der of people than New Haven. Of course Worcester will never surpass New Haven in the quality of it's peo- pie, and it will probably never have more in number The latest crow in Worcester is inspired by what they call there water census. According to this census the population of Worces- ter is 107, ,963, a growth of 1,761 for the year. The total number of users last year was 10S,7O2. To this total was added 2500, the estimated number of persons who did not use water, making the total population 1O6,2O2 And by some more queer figuring total popu- lation of 1O7,963 is made up for this year.
 The Hartford Post thinks New Ha- ven will have to fall back on its beer census to get more population than Worcester has. Not so. When the last count was made in New Haven months ago there were more than 10S,000 in it, and when we need more all that it will be necessary to do will be to order another count in Oak street and Fair street, where the population is increas- ing very rapidly.

 Whether or not Lii Hung Chang is to be allowed to take with him into ban lshment his peacock feather and his yellow jacket is not stated. We hope he is. Life cannot be wholly gloomy to him while his peacock feather waves and his yellow jacket gleams.

SENATOR FUNDERB URK.

One of those who emerged from the election in Illinois last Tuesday was Senator Funderburk. Perhaps he, knowing his own merits, wasn't sur- prised, but his opponents were so sur- prised that they haven't recovered yet. Running against him was the mighty Senator "Dave" Littler, the friend of Tanner and of himself. Littler and his friends laughed when Funderburk was nominated, and they laughed all through the campaign. But Funder- burk didn't mind their laughing. He owned an old rattletrap of buggy, a sway backed horse and a set of harness composed largely of ropes ends. With this outfit he made a tour of his dis trict and told his fellow citizens that he wanted to go to the senate to repeal the Allen law and generally to undo the work of his opponent, the oleaginous Littler. He was just plain man, mak- ing a plain talk for honest legislation, and the voters did not see anything about Funderburk to laugh at. On the contrary, they took him seriously and elected him, and now Funderburl1 doesn't seem half as funny to Littler and his friends as he did during the campaign.
 Moral: A man can't always tell when he owns the people.

rrhe Secret of Golf,

He could loft ball from the top of his
 watch straight into his beaver hat. He could tee a ball on the window-sill and
 pink the vagrom cat. He could putt from the top of the oaken
 stair to hole on the floor below, And niblck the sphere from baby's ear
 and the baby wouldn't know. He could brassy some f.leen hundred feet
 and clip off daisy's top. He could iigger the ball OCT the steeple tall
 as most men would jigger a cop. He could stand on his head, to his caddie's
 dread, and dlsmay of all hard by, :. And then with the ease with which I would
 sneeze lift the ball from cuppy lie. He could drive ball for two hundred yards
 to the blade of Il carver keen, And cut 1t in two as easy as you could slice
 up sod from the green. The bird that flies high up in the skies he'd
 wing with his driving cleek, And I've seen him graZe as soft as haze the
 down on a damsel's cheek. But he never could win in the tournaments,
 no matter how well he played. He'd never a cup on his mantelpiece; in
 medals was never arrayed. For though his game was the finest golf that
 ever was witnessed yet, He never could seem to comprehend Dit or
 of golf etiquette. He'd cross the putt of the other man; he'd
 play when nearer the hole. He couldn't grasp the simplest rules to save
 his golfing soul And that is why this golfer keen is never
 up" but down; And that is why this King of the ureen
 doesn't wear the golfers crown. The moral is clear, oh, golfer bold, oh, golfer
 strong and true; You may be able to whack the ball, and
 make your opponent blue; You may be able to do freak things, and play
 past all compare; But unless you learn the etiquette, you'd
 better play solitaire. John Kendrick Bangs in Harper's Drawer.

FASHION NOTES.
As lfNIouldod to n wit.

A lovely way to accomplish the sheath hips now so admired is to set the skirt on a yoke of drawn chiffon. The chiffon is run either into a lot of little tucks or puffs. The threads can be pulled to make the stuff fuller or flatter as may be desired. The width of the material, which comes ready made, is just right for the depth of the yoke. It is fitted by drawing the threads and is set on a little founda- tion. The skirt falling from the lower edge is either accordeon pleating or crepe ce chine, or q perfectly fitted

spanish flounce. The result Is most graceful. Tucked chiffon is newer than the puffed, for the puffed makes shir- ring when placed for the yoke, and that, though 1t is still pretty, has been used several seasons.
 Overskirts of one form or another are so generally worn by fashionable women that the current exactions as to fitting skirts are somewhat obscur- ed. Even though the skirt includes a short fiounce that starts at the waist and that has some fitness, he skirt be- meath is glove tight. Where the dress the best advantage is in skirts that are quite or nearly plain about the hips. Then there is no disgusting drap- cry and snugness has fine showing The skirt of the accompanying picture was one of this sort, it's scant trimming being flat application of mauve gauge ribbon. Such a skirt is very handsome and of itself Is a recommendation for it's maker. Some deluded makers, how ever, have been led into error by a de- sire to accentuate this snugness. To this end they have finished the placket hole with buttons or facing cords. For one thing, this is a feature of dress that should not be made conspicuous in any way. Then the suggestion that woman has to lace up her skirt or secure herself inside it with a magni- fled button hook is far from attractive.
 The bodice of this gown was unusual because of trimming that recalled the finish of the bygone huzzar jacket. Festoons and rosettes of the gauge ribbon accomplished this. While mill itary finish is fashionable just now, 1t ordinarily is less pointedly suggested than in this model Mauve velvet faced this storm collar.

Consul Monaghan of Chemnitz re- in the way of canal building. They attach great importance to canals and waterways as factors in industrial de- velopment, and their idea now is to unite the Elbe and the Rhine, thus per- uniting not only the direct passage of ships from one to the other without unloading, but allowing the Rhine boats to carry cargoes gathered in the har- bors of the North Sea to places far in land. This will save freight and cost of reloading.

"A Pennsylvania libel suit that has singular and interesting bearings pass ed through it's initiatory stages the other day before Alderman Wadsworth, of Pittsburg. The charges are brought by Joseph Borivoj Kreemery, editor of B Slavonic newspaper at Hazleton, against P. V. Rovnianck and Julius Wolf, publishers of the American Sla- vonic Gazette, at Pittsburg. Kreemery alleges that the accused have defamed him, and the peculiar allegation he makes is that they made a travesty on his middle name, "Borivoz," which, as they spelled it (with a ''z" in place of "j"), signifies filthy person; and, again, by the use of hyphen, they made it "Bo-rivo," signifying that he was a wine -bibber and a drunkard.

The Milwaukee Sentinel notes the in teresting fact that this year from 1,500 to 2,000 Polish-Americans in that city who have in past years voted the Dem ocratic ticket did not vote at all. It quotes 8 local Polish-American editor, Michael Kruszka, as saying: Such a tremendous pressure was brought to bear upon them by the religious leaders that they preferred to abstain from voting than to vote against their con- victions on the one hand or against the pressure brought upon them on the oth- CT hand Two-thirds of these people will probably not vote the Democratic ticket again. It is the same thing all over the country in all Polish settle ments.

The whole edifice of lies is about to crurn- ble The wickedest conspiracy ever known to civilized history is about to be exposed. AS the moment draws nearer, the temper of the anti-Semitic clerical and military gang grows worse. Many of the best men in Paris are going armed, living in unknown places, and approaching their offices in the dark by roundabout ways, for fear of assassination.
