Hundreds OF persons contend that the
twentieth century will not begin with
January l, 1900, while other hundreds
contend with equal positiyeness that the
correct date ia January l. 1901" writes
Howard Box In the October Ladies' Home
Journal. THE 1900 contingent argue
that, o. course, the new century begins
with its mineral date, and 20 on to
figure out very deftly that with the last
day OF the year 1899 the hundred years
will have run their course. They argue
that II the first year ended with Deem
Der 81, OF the year one, the nineteen hun
dredth year must, OF course, end with
December 81, 1899. and that the lst day
OF January, 1900. Is, therefore the first
day OF the new century. And, ~curiously
enough, this latter figure Is correct. but
only In a numeral sense. These statisti-
clans overlook n very important fact,
however, that II requires 100 years to
make q cent ury, and it calls for no ex-
pert mathematician to figure II out that
the full hundred years OF the nineteenth
century will not have run their course
until ~ o'clock midnight OF the 3lst OF
December, 1900. Numerically, we enter
the twentieth century with January l..
1900. But, nevertheless, we must com
plete that entire year OF 1900 and go
through its 365 days before the actual
1900 years shall have run their course.

week shows the government has received
S66O.0jl more than it has spent since
July /. when the fiscal year began. The
only item during that time that Is not 10
be- clsssed among the routine sources Of
income Is that OF about 100000 on the
sale OF the New YORK custom house.
This good showing OF The government
finances is attributed largely 10 the
enormous receipts on account Of the war
revenue law. The receipts last year full
filled thu predictions OF the trainers OF
the war revenue law, but this year they
have already gained ebout s5.OOO,0OO over
the record Of the first quarter OF 1898,
and have averaged more than $1,000, 900

receipts for the fiscal year TO date have
been $40, 1868, 1889 Toe receipts from in
ternsl revenue this month have been
mora than 100000 In excess OF those
Of the irst % days OF September. 1898.
The Customs receipts have also been
unusually large, there having been a
gain In the current fiscal year OF about
100000 over the corresponding period

nearly reach the round total OF &20.0O0,.

Blowing up the Wolves.

W. | Benrett Of the Wyoming
Valley Oil Company, is said to
have invented wolf annihilator
that will slrew the earth with
particles OF the wolf so minute to
make it fertilizer hard TO beat.
The tontrivauee IS expected to
reVolGtIontze the methods Of war
fare against the predatory animals
which annually do mere damage
to the herds of stockmen than all
other causes combined, not except
ing even thn severe storms of win
ter. Mr.. Bennett is chemist OF
experience, and Of late years has
been experimenting along the
lines of the wolf destruction with
remarkably satisfactory results.
The annihilator consists of small
amount Of nitroglycerine combined
with other chemicals. This is the
"balt" and is neatly buried IN a
piece of meat, which is fastened to
the ground by q wire being at
tached to the annihilator. When
a wolf or coyote comes along,
seizes the meat and starts of, the
accompanying jerk on the WIRE ex,
ploding the nltroglycerine, and the
destructiveness of that particular
wolf or coyote is terminated. only
enough of the carcass being left to
exhibit as evidence necessary TO
secure the bounty offered by coun
ties and cattlemen for the killing
of the animals Mr.. Bennett says
his b,,its will be inexpensive, and
experiments have proved that they
are u success.
