and quality that system was foolish and bad one, so it was decided to con- struct a vat which would be capacious enough to hold a full two years supply of whiskey.
 The figures given by MT. Curran were interesting. The weekly average takings, for instance, in the moslth of July at the lobby or members bar was 913 As. 4d.; at the strangers bar, 914 16s. Sd: a. the corridor Cor commit tee's) bar, G22 13s. Id, and at the ter race smoking room bar. ;e19 16s. In 1896 the House was in possession of something like se450 worth of wine, but the changed system of management has resulted in the storing of no less than G8,000 worth of wines and spirits in the vaults, and during last session the profit was nearly adequate to dis charge the whole of the outstanding liabilities. The new vat contains 800 gallons of Scotch whisky, but the de- mand for Irish is so slightthat small> cask is deemed sufficiently large for all purposes.--Lo Pall Mai Gazette

also an export duty of one and half cents on each sack of charcoal and sev en cents on a cord of wood Vast quan- titles of mangrove and other soft scrub by wood make this fine harvest field for the charcoal burner. Last year about five thousand bales of tobacco, one hundred pounds to the bale, were exported from the island and sold in Havana for forty dollars the bale. That was an unusual tobacco year" in Pinos, because many workers came over from Vuelta Abajo to escape the war. They have now returned to their former homes, where conditions are bet ter. and this year the island crop will fall to less than two thousand bales, But the fact remains that it might grow here, to absolute perfection, if there were anybody to cultivate it. Rich. arable land may be bought as low as half dollar the acre. That suitable for tobacco is not found in large tracts, but in scattered patches among the hills, where the settlers greatest draw back would be isolation from the world.

Proport1Onately, greater number of men than women fall victims to can nibalism, the reason being that women who are still young and esteemed as be- ing of great value, by reason of their utility in growing and cooking food. This rule does not, however, hold good throughout for in the vicinity of the Aruimi River our observations re- vealed a contrary order of custom.
 Probably the most inhuman practice of all Is to be met with among tribes who deliberately hawk the victim piecemeal while still alive. Incredible as it may appear, the fact remains jus tified by an only too abundant proof captives are led from place to place in order that individuals may have the opportunity of indicating, by external marks upon the body, the portion they desire to acquire. The distinguishing marks are generally made by means of colored clay, or strips of grass tied in particular fashion. The astounding stoicism of the victim, who thus wit nesses the bargaining for his limbs, is only equalled by the callousness with which he walks forward to meet his fate. In explanation of the extraor- dinary indifference thus displayed 1t can only be assumed that death is robbed of all terror, life under condi- tions of slavery offering so little at traction -Herbert Ward in Cassells Magazine

POSSIBLE WEALTH IN THE SOIL
 DAN.

In report received by the Foreign Office Sir William Garstn has called attention to the need for a scientific ex-
 animation of the Soudan, with a view
 to the development of its natural rs-
 sources. It is pointed out that a very
 possible source of future wealth to the
 Soudan lies in the vast forests which
 line the banks of the Upper Blue Nile
 and extend, in an easterly direction. to
 the Abyssinlan frontier. In ths Bahr-el-
 dhazal Province, also, particularly in
 the BonSo country large forest tracts
 exist
 The ebony tree (Dalbergia melanoxy-
 lon) is met with south of Karkaui. on the Blue Nile, and again in the vicinity of the Sobat River. On the White Nile,
 in the Bongo and Rohl districts the India-rubber creeper Landolphia flori- da) is found in great confusion. If the rubber yielded by this creeper be not of quite so good quality as that obtained from the Assam India rubber tree (Fic- us elastlca), 1t is still of sufficient yalue to be counted as an important asset in the future trade of the Soudan The Assam Inda-rubber tree should certain ly flourish well in most parts of the Soudan, more particularly south of Khartoum. Although this tree takes from twenty to thirty years to arrive at girth sufficient to permit of regular tapping, it's yield is so valuable (about $l5 per tree per annum) that it's intro duction is we'll worth attempting.
 1t is very much to be hoped that a scientific examination of the Soudan for ests may ere long be carried out under the superintendence of an expert It Is certain that much valuable informa ton would be obtained from his report. Very little is known regarding the possibili- ties of mineral wealth in the Soudan, Until the country is more settled, an in- vestigation of the mountainous regions of Kordofan and Darfur on the west and of the Abyssinian frontier on the east would be impossible. Iron ore is found in the Bahr-e -Ghazal Province and also worked in the mountains of Fazogl.> Could coal be discovered if would make great change in the whole question of the Soudan. In few years' time it is probable that the Geological Survey Department of Egypt will be able to depute parties to examine the Soudan.-Nature.

MARCONI'S PREDECESSOR

Centenary of Scottish Scientist, the l Alleged Original Inventor of Wireless l Photography.
 | It is probably not generally known ! that experiments in wireless telegra- | phy were conducted before the British l Association so long ago as 1859-forty years since. And even before then ex- periments had been publicly made in Scotland They were conducted by a Scotsman who was regarded by his own generation as a mere dreamer, a faddist in electricity, visionary AS
 a matter of fact, James Bowman
 Lindsay appears to have lacked the
 gift with which the Scots as nation
 are usually credited, the wisdom that
 is eminently practical So as he him
 self was corcerned, he seems to have
 derived little or no benefit from his
 discoveries. Nor was he able to inn
 press upon his contemporaries their
 utility and practical importance.
 James Bowman Lindsay was born
 at at Carmyllie, in Fortarshire, on
 Sept, 8, 1799-exactly one hundred
 years ago. His parents were in poor
 circumstances, but, as the fruit of their and his own self-denial, he managed
 to get university training. Until his twenty second year, however, when he
 went to the University of St. Andrews,
 he was entirely self-taught. At St. Andrews he distinguished himself in mathematics and physical science, and in 1929 he was appointed Lecturer on Science and Mathematics in the Watt Institution in Dundee. He afterward opened private classes in Dundee. and later, in 1S41, was appointed teacher in the prison there, post which he held for seventeen years. He died on June 24 1862, the last four years of his hay ing been entirely devoted to scientific pursuits,
 Lindsay is said to have been the first to discover the possibility of a con- tinuous light produced by eletricity. and it is claimed that "as Sir Humph- ry pavy Is known and honored as the father of the electric light, so, in fu- ture history Lindsay should occupy his rishtful phase as the father of electric lighting Lindsay also devoted much time to experiments in telegraphing without wires, his system, however, being different from that of Marconi. His proposal was to make water the conducting medium and In 1s45 he suggested transatlantic connection in this way. He read a paper before the British Association in 1859, "On Tele- graphing Without Wires" and, as has been mentioned, conducted ex- periments. He also conducted experi- ments at several places on the Fay and at Liverpool. Much of his time, how ever, was spent on the compilation of '"The Pentecontaglossal Dictionary a dictionary in fifty languages. and doubtless his infatuaton for this work was to a large extent the cause of his failure to develop his important electri- cal discoveries In 1858, on the recom- of Lord Derby, he was granted civil list pension of e1OO a year in recognition of his great learn Ing and attainments-Lond Pail Mall Gazette.

At the Inauguration of Governor
Voorhees, more than one member of the
National Guard of New Jersey was
noticed wearing untarnished shoulder
straps and doing the honors in the first
rank, who, when the war cloud was
darkening the horizon, could not be in
duced to 60 within hailing distance of
the State camp at Sea Girt, to say moth
ing Of their lack of patriotism in failing
to offer their services.
1t would appear that the dining and
wineing for which Trenton is famed is
much more in keeping with the officer
usher's taste than bareback and camp
life in real earnest.

BIG 80" COMMENT.

The absence from the Democratic eau
Gus on Wednesday of the doughty Senator
from Hudson, Mr.. McDermott, was not
needed to emphasize the fact that Sena-
tor James Smith, Jr., was not in good
and regular standing among prominent
Democrats of both the gold and silver
wings of the party.
Had Mr.. McDermott known of the re-
cent decision of the Mississippi Supreme
Court, to the effect that the ordinary
word "damn," without qualifying pre-
fixes, renders the offender liable under
the laws of that State, as we'll as under
the New Jersey statutes, he might have
been more guarded in his comment on
the action of his colleagues concerning
the empty Senatorial nomination OF
James Smith, Jr.
And, again, he might not.

been a year ago.
There was still enough irritation leftin
the minds of the Southern people to lead
them to regard such commission and its
work as an insult to themselves. Today
the feeling of unity produced by the
Spanish war. and by the wise and timely
words of President Mckinley at Atlanta,
have removed every trace of such feel
ing, and the Southern people will well
come those who have gone to pay a
tribute of respect to the brave men from
New Jersey who died in Andersonville.
And on our side it has to be said that
even the horrors of Andersonville are
forgiven if not forgotten.
