SOME SOLICITATIONS.

Colonel Langdon, a retired regular army officer, makes the very sensible suggestion that the regular officers be given turns in serving in the quarter master and the commissary depart merlts, that they may gain the exper- fence which is so necessary for the proper administration of these depart ments in war time. And the Spring field Union makes the equally sensible suggestion that it is important when war comes that these officers be given an opportunity to utilize their exper- fence instead of appointing inexper- fenced civilians who have pulls to such positions.
 And it may be still further suggested that the training of these officers be of such character that they will not feel obliged to let blind adherence to red tape bring suffering and death to those whose needs they are set to supply.

Thomas Paine, the great commoner of mankind,' while he was spending the summer of 17S6 at the hotel near the Falls of the SchuyllIlll. The idea was suggested to him by the mechanism of spiders web, and he began to work upon plans for an iron bridge to span the river at that point. To lay his model before the French Academy of Sciences, Paine went to France in 17S7, but that country was already on the road to revolution, and had no time for the study of bridges. In England Paine forgot his scientific mission and be- came absorbed in political affairs, which ended with his imprisonment and gave to the world The Rights of Man. but lost to it for many years advanced scientific bridge building"

 In almost all other forms of outdoor exercise than tennis the bicycle skirt has had it's influence. Hundreds of women who never were on a wheel in their lives are this season wearing bi- cycle skirts at seashore and mountains. It makes no difference how old or how fat she is, she declares she is a great deal less trouble to the rest of the par ty in a short skirt than in long one, and more dignied figure, too. Noth- ing is more ridiculously pitiful than a big woman trying to climb rocks or make landings from boat dragging the weight of long skirt The short skirt, shirt waist, stockings to match or harmonize with the skirt and stocky son, and very pretty the younger wo- men look.
 The regulation bicycle skirt is used. It comes just short of the ankle, is double faced cloth turned up deeply and stitched heavily at the hem. There is no placket hole, the skirt fastening with row of buttons either side of the front. It is fitted about the hips and is laid in pair of pleats at the back, layers of under pleats giving plenty of spring at the back. A scant short skirt is not pretty. The skirts are almost always made with belt skirt band, heavily stitched, but the belt ought to be individualized. If it seem continuation of the skirt, a needed inch or so is taken apparently from the length of the waist.

DAVID WARD AND GOV PINGREF

DAVID WARD AND GOV. PINGREE.
 A year or so ago Gov. Pingree and
 Railroad Commissioner Wesselius sat
 side by side in a car, on their way to
 Lansing. A number of the political
 friends of the governor sat near by, and
 MT. Pingree took advantage of the op- portunity to air his views concerning corporations.
 Now, take our millionaires," he went on. We have lot of them
 men with plenty of money credit, but at heart very cheap. For example,
 there's David Ward That man is
 worth s20,000,000, but did any one ever
 hear of his giving a dollar of it for
 charity? Not much. The bulk of his property is outside the city, yet we have to pay the comparatively small assessment. He is a miserly old
 skinflint."
 Presently Wesselius had occasion to leave his seat to talk to a man in an- other part of the car. A little old chap
 with bent form and wrinkled face, had sat near the Governor during the talk
 an attentive listener. He now left his
 seat to move over and slide into the vacancy left by Wesselius. q take it that you are the gov
 ernor MT. Pinggree," he began, in-
 sinuatingly. T have never had the pleasure of meeting you, but I have
 seen your picture.
 "Yes, I am the Governor Well, I want to say, MT. Pingree that I have listened closely to what
 you had to say about the corporations and millionaires, and I heartily agree with you.'
 The Governor was tickled at this and at once launched out into a
 general conversation. They touched on the corporations again, and various other matters, and the Governor was surprised to find that his companion was most delightful talker, fully in- formed upon wide variety of topics, witty, even brilliant. The Governor actually was told something that he
 had not known before. During the
 conversation he had occasion again to
 bring up the name of David Ward.
 q know him we'll" said the old
 gentleman. "I have been acquainted
 with him for many years, and have
 had several business dealings with
 him, and can say truthfully that have found him all you say, and even worse''
 Finally the train pulled into Lansing and all arose to leave.
 The Governor held out his hand to the old gentleman. My dear sir" he
 said, T have enjoyed this hour of talk with you. You are solid and sensible, and I have learned great deal from you You are man after my own heart. I hope that at some future time

coon WILL AND GOOD SENSE.


 It has been noticeable that Admiral Schley has all along been particular to give his subordinates full credit for their part in the brave deeds with which his own name will forever be connected. Now he says concerning the medals of honor that are to be dis tributed among those on the ships I wish the government would give us all the same kind. As it is, the admiral gets a gold one, the sailor a bronze It isn't the money value of it that we care for; it's the sentiment and the signifi- canoe. How much better if we follow ed the example of England who has her Victoria cross, and Germany, with her Iron cross, which go alike to officer and man. The admiral would be hap pier to point to his medal and say My men wear this" and the sailor would be prouder to say, My admiral wears the same thing" Such dis tinction is against our American policy. I hope this matter can be taken up and lighted.
 There is good will and good sense in Admiral Schley's ideas concerning this matter. Courage is courage, wherever found, and there should be no aristoc- racy in the medals used to honor it in this democratic country.

VEST INDIAN WEAT4ER REPORTS

 and it appears that we are now going to have West Indian weather reports
 The central weather station of the pew Caribbean system will be at Kingston
 Jamaica, and branches will be estab- lished at Santiago de Cuba, Santo De- mingo, Curacao, Barranquilla in Co., lombia, Port of Spain in Trinidad, and St. Thomas and Barbadoes. Permis- sion was asked of the government of Haiti, and greatly to the surprise of the American government, a positive refusal was returned. It has since been explained that this decision may have been prompted by the fear on the part of the Haitians that the establishment of a weather observatory at Mole St. Nicholas was intended then as the first step in territorial acquisition by the United States. It is known that the constitution of the country, which was framed shortly after the island was freed from the French yoke, contained a provision aimed directly at people of the white race, who had oppressed the Haitians for two or three centuries The same article is found in the pres

4 MELANCHOLY PREDICTION

Is there any limit to the bad manage ment at Montauk Point? Now comes Dr. Nicholas Senn Assistant Surgeon General of the United States, with a prediction that the camp will be ''pest hole" within five weeks. He says that the sanitary provisions throughout the camp in general and in the general hospital are inadequate to prevent the spread of typhoid-fever germs, and that the soil at Montauk Pont is favorable to it. In three weeks, he continues, so lax are the sanitary precautions, the lowest wells will be contaminated by the germs that percolate through the soil. In his opinion the establishment of the camp in this place was a grave mistake that is already making itself known. He advised against the selec- tion of the Chickamauga camp location for similar reasons, and he maintains that the soundness of his position has been proven by the event He does not anticipate the spread of any disease the army might bring with it from Cuba, but he is firmly convinced that typhoid will have the camp tight in a few weeks and with fearful results.
 Surgeon Major Brown arises and says that Dr. Senn is all wrong in his mo- tions. It is quite evident that some- body is all wrong, but judging from what has happened it will not be at all surprising to find that Dr. Senn sees things as they are.

 We have sold great many tools, but they have been chiefly the kind used for making hot weather refreshments,-Ice Picks, Ice Shayers, "Peeless' and Auto matic" FTeezers, Lemon Squeezers, etc. These goods are still in demand, but there has been such a decided change in the weather that we have ventured to make a display of Mechanics Tools in our show window.

When 1t was known that Bismarck was dead the students of the Berlin university sent out a summons to a beer feast of mourning in his honor. The "Trauer commers" was held in the hall of a large brewery, decorated with the banners and colors of the stu dent corps. The rector and many of the professors of the university were present, while the galleries were filled with ladies. The proceedings began with the playing of funeral march and the singing of the choral What God hath done is we'll done," followed by "Gaudeamus igitur," and an address on Bismarck. The presiding student then gave the word for the ''Trauer salamander," after which there were more songs.
