4 POLIrTCAL WHEEL.

The bicycle will cut an important figure in the politics of Pennsylvania this fall, One of the candidates there is about to start out on a campaign tour of the State on a bicycle. He will mount pea green wheel and carry flag into every hamlet, village and farm, and will discuss politics at every stopping place.
 This campaign tour will be watched with interest, It will of course be un- obstructed The candidates meanest opponents will not dare to put tacks in his path because if they should do that he would get the bicycle vote," which is large and which would flercely resent such work. The chief danger to the success of the campaign will be in the candidate himself. Of course in order to carry on such a campaign he must be an expert bicyclist, and he will have to be careful that he doesn't spend val uable time in talking wheel" with those to whom he intends to talk poli- tics.

FASHION NOTES.
A Victory for SunbonMets

There has been a fancy all summer for running about without g. hat on the head, and at the same time there has been a fad for burying the head in a sunbonnet. The sunbonnet has won as the season advanced. Its advocates will tell you that there is no sun so hot as the September sun, and that she does not care what the season is she is going to be comfortable. Besides, she will add, she will be back in town soon, that her face is tanned to positive fright, and what will she do when she goes into an evening gown? Hence, and it's seems reasonable, the fall sun bonnet.

4 WEAK SPANISH CLAIM.

Among the little claims which Spain
 has made or talked about making is that the protocol rather than the capit- ulation should control the status of af- fairs In the Philippines. As the Provi-
 dence Journal points out, we have sev- eral precedents in our own history con- firmatory of the opposite view. The treaty of peace between the United States and England after the war of 1912 was signed December "A, 1914.
 Three weeks after the American frigate President, when one day out from New York, was run down and captured by a
 British feet On February 20, 1915, the United States frigate Constitution,
 commanded by Captain Charles Stew art, the grandfather of the late Charles Stewart Parnell, fought and, captured
 the British frigate Cyane and sloop of war Levant near the Azores. March 23, 1S15-three months after the signing of the treaty of peace-the American sloop of war Hornet took the British sloop of war Penguin after a short action near the Island of Tristan d'Acunha, in the South Atlantic. All of these captures were legal, because the combatants were unaware of the re-establishment of peace. The United States sloop of war Peacock, however. took a prize on

It is made either very dainty, lacy tractive from being very deep and big. They are of all sorts of materials from barred muslin to common calico, from thread lace and null to heavy creton, and some of the latter are delicious. There are many different patterns too, the old fashioned sunbonnet being a pet. Then an adorably Quakerish and at the same time piquant affair Is merely piece of bright creton curved over the top of the head rounded off at the tips of the ear, and supplied with a little back puff piece and curtain. A frill of lawn to match the brightest color of the creton is set along the edges of the bonnet, and there are be- frilled strings that tie in a great bow in front The under side of the bonnet may be faced with lawn or not.
 In feathered hats there are indica- tions of return to long sweeping plumes laid flat, This, likely enough means that we'll all be expected to don Gainsboroughs in winter, yet it may not. We've already had touch of this sort of feather trimming and have en- dorsed it, and now there are new phases of it, with Gainsboroughs-th actual source of the whole lot of 'enl--- many miles away One of these hats is shown here. It was for fall carriage wear and was of gathered black chiffon with low shirred crown and rolled brim turned up at the right side and was there trimmed with two sweeping plumes whose stems were held by an ornate paste buckle, beneath which were some white velvet geraniums. The left side of the brim turned down till it almost touched the hair.

THE BREAKDOWN OF SHAF-
 TER,S ARMY,

To the Editor of the Journal and Courier:
 Within twenty days after the sur
 render of the Spanish army General
 Shafters army was unfit for service by
 reason of sickness. Ordered by the
 war department, for sanitary reasons,
 to move to San Luis, a place near San
 tiago, where the ground was higher
 than the camps, Shafter and his gene
 rals indignantly protested to the war
 department that the army was com
 posed of sick men, and that the only
 proper sanitary measure to save it from destruction was to move it north
 at once. Evidently in reply to an in- quiry from the war department how the province of Santiago could be held,
 since, if the regulars, the principal part
 of Shafter's army could not stand the Cuban climate how could the volun- teers, General Shafter said that the
 not been caused wholly by the climate, but mostly by the hardships of the campaign, which had so reduced the men that they COulu NOL WltESIduu UT recover from the effects of the climate. General Shafter further said that there was no reason to doubt but that new troops well fed and well tented could and would endure the climate and do their duty as soldiers.
 Indeed, few miles to the east, on Guiantonoma Bay, at Fort McCalla, Huntington's marines had fought des- perately at first and maintained their position much longer than Shafter's $
 men had been in the field, and at all
 times had been and were in the pink of physical condition.
 That Shafters army was used up by sickness was demonstrated by the con- dltion of the men as they were landed at Montauk. Only the men free from sickness" were to be sent north. Great | Heavens! if these were the men of his army who were free from sickness, what must have been the condition of
 the rest of them?
 Now it is everywhere conceded that
 the principal cause of the prostration of Shafter's men was lack of sufficient food. His regulars" were as tough and hardy, and as able to endure the hardships of war as any other soldiers in the world, but they could not thus endure without sufficient food.

4 GROWING COUYTRY.

There are some countries where it is still the fashion to have children. One of them is Russia, where the birth-rate is so far in excess of the death-rate that the increase of population has been prodigious. In 1724 there were 5000 900 Russians; there were 20, 900, 900 in 1762 in 1796, owing to conquests by Cather- inc IT., the population jumped to 37,OOO,- 900; conquests in Finland and Poland account for the gain of 9,000,000 shown by the census of 1S09 The prodigious increase, due simply to the excess of births over deaths, began after this date. With no important change in the frontiers, the inhabitants in 1S47 numbered 67,000, 900, an increase of 21,- 000,000 in less than forty years. In 1858 Russia had 74,OOO, ,OOO; in 1885, 10S, ,Oo0 900; the census of January, 1897, counted 129, 100000 and it is estimated that the present population is more than 130,- 000,0OO. The Russian people has more than sextupled since the day when Chappe prophesied its approaching end.
 Of course our own beloved country is the biggest, the grandest, the richest and the most unconquerable country on the face of the globe, but it will have to be admitted that there is something to Russia, and that she can raise a large army if it should happen to be needed.

WHAT THE WHAnEBAcK MAY DC

WH4T THE WH4LEBACK MAY DO.
 New York has already lost some of it's importance as a port of export, and there are indications that it is about to lose more. Captain McDougall, the in- ventor of the whaleback type of steam CT, is of opinion that whalebacks of 2,200 the new Canadian canal to Montreal, and thence across the Atlantic. There would thus be no shifting of cargo, with the expense incident thereto, such as now occurs when grain is carried from the lakes via the Erie canal, or by rail to New York for shipment on ocean steamers. Even the improved Erie ca nal-if the new millions it will cost are forthcoming-would hardly ensure New York's retention of it's grain trade in competition with a line of whalebacks steaming from Duluth direct to Liver pool The new canal will permit the use of vessels 270 feet long and drawing fourteen feet of water. Within the next five years, says Mr. McDougall five hundred whalebacks will be trad ing between Duluth and European ports An advantage of the whalebacks so employed will be their ability to earn money summer and winter. At pres ent many vessels on the lakes are idle during the winter months by reason of ice, but with access to the enlarged Ca nadian canal the whalebacks may be used on the lakes while navigation is open and in winter go to sea, thus re- maining in commission all the year round

F'ruit-growers in Georgia have fared well this year, but would have done much better, the Macon Telegraph says, had they sufficient foresight. They have pocketed S1,5Oo,O00 by their peaches, but much of the fruit has been allowed to rot. on the ground, or has been fed to pigs, because of the ineffi- cheney of the market arrangements, the lack of crates, and the absence of fla cilities for canning, drying, or distilling the fruit. The beginning of the peach industry in the state dates back only few years, but already the returns are three times as large as those from the melons, plums, pears, and other fruits combined With the establishment of canning factories, mnay thousands of dollars additional will be added to the farmers incomes, and Georgia canned peaches will elbow the product of Cali fornia on the grocers' shelves.

Man is mortal. The somewhat preva- lent notion that vegetarianism affords freedom from digestive Arrangements is disputed by a British surgeon, who asserts that a years residence in h. dia, where the natives are mostly vege- tarians, will convince the most skepti- cal that no class of diet confers even partial immunity from disorders of di- gestion. Severe cases of dyspepsia in Strict vegetarians are not uncommon at the General Hospital of Madras. In one of these, a man who had weighed but ffty-two pounds was fed with pep tonized milk and essence of chicken un- til he reached IDA pounds, when he was dismissed.

The American Economist prints re- turns from 2,229 manufacturing con- cerns representing every industry and scattered through forty-seven States and territories. In March, 1895, these concerns had on their pay rolls 2O4, ,5sO employees, who were paid during that month $7,o79,ooo as wages, an average of $3460 a month. Last March the same establishments had on their pay rolls 269, 323 men, whose wages amount ed to $10,19S, ,0o0-an average for the month of fraction less than s3S. That is, in three years there has been a gain of 31 per cent. in the number of em- pIoyes and per cent. in wages paid. Still, there are those who insist that there has been no improvement in en- ployment and wages.
