A SOPORIFIC PLANT.
The Stipa, Which Makes Men and
Animals Sleepy.

Mr.. Gillespie of Edinburgh has called
of certain plants found in Russia and in
America.
These plants are knwn to botanists
under the name of stipa. On the Medi-
terranean coast, where the stipa grows
in profusion, it is called virgins flax,
and because of its beautiful blossoms is
used extensively for bouquets.
In Texas and New Mexico a species
Of this plant, called stipa viridula, pos
sesses soporifc qualities.
The cowboys and herders of the west,
where the plant grows luxuriantly,
often find to their establishment that
their COWS and horses are suddenly
overcome with sleepiness, accompanied
with great weakness. They are rem
dered incapable of travelling, and can
not exert themselves without great
effort.
Horses and COWS are affected alike.
The head falls low, the body trembles,
the breath comes with difficulty and
the heart beats unanimously. Accom-
panying this there is profuse sweating
exhaustion. The poor animal seems
violently sick. However, in a few days
his state becomes normal again.
Strangely enough, sheep are not af-
fected by the plant.
AS an experiment Mr. Gillespie in
oculated frogs and rabbits with an ex-
tract from the stipa viridula. After
the injections the animals were appar-
emily seized with hallucinations and
suffered the anxiety and paralysis of a
strong narcotic.

Not even taking time to catch a car;
You feel his elbow fouling,

And take a sudden tumble,

RELIGIOUS INTELLIGENCE.

Abiding to Prof. Hyslop's CONVEX
sation to Spiritualism, the Churchman
says: Whatever may have been the
revelations made by Madame Piper,
who, to our knowledge, is a wonderful
woman, though by no means has it
been demonstrated that she is a true
''automaton," these concern only the
person who sits at her feet She has
never yet made a revelation that con-
tributed an iota to our idea of the
future life. Nay, we go further; the
futre life. Nay, we go further; the
pictures she draws of the spirit world,
like those of all her colleagues, pre-
sent no ideals worthy of human effort,
and fall UNNECESSARILY below a para
disc in the lofty sense of Holy Scrip
ture. Were the matter within our
choice, we would not hesitate a mo-
ment in selecting this present world
as our permanent abode, with all it's
evils and injustice and malevolence, in
preference to that depicted in the
frances of Madam Piper, ct id genus
omne. It's Grass vulgarity, bizarre
would be intolerable. And the won
der is that some of our keenest stu
dents of psychic phenomena have be-
come SO elated at this negative account
of the spirit life, which they believe to
be authentic, that they have ignored
the essential nature Of the message it
self. The surprising fact of any mes

neglect of it's irredeemab1e puerility
and fatuousness. In our Judgment,
then, it behooves sober minded people
to maintain their attitude of in
credulity toward these phenomena. In
the opinion of many of the most
capable students of our day, their
existence is very far from proved
when one applies the rigorous tests of
truth that modern science demands.
A writer in the Catholic World pre-
sents an array of statistics to prove
that the Philippines are far from
priestridden. The official records of
both the religious orders and the
government, published long before
Dewey entered Manila bay show, he
says, that in no Catholic country is
the number of priests SO small, COM
pared with the population, as in the
Philippines. The priests are fewer
than in almost any diocese in the
United States, compared with it's Cath
Ollie population. In 1896 the whole
clergy of the islands only numbered
1888 priests between all the orders and
seculars combined The secular
clergy amounted to 773, of whom about
one-half is of the native races. These
had charge of population of over
100000. The secular priests of the
Philippines are almost exactly in the
same proportion to the population as
are the priests in Chicago, which GER
tainly is not the happy hunting ground
of swarms of idle clergymen. The
argument is far stronger in the case of
the 'friars." The whole Humber in
the Philippines, Carolines and Lad
rones was only 1915, including Jesuit
and Dominican professors in the col
leges, those in charge Of the Manila
observatory, and the missionaries
among the Mohammedans of MindanaO

The latter occupied 1O5 of the 1877
Jesuits, the other 62 being in Manila

LITERARY NOTES.

Major-General Wesley Merritt con-
tributes the leading article, entitled
"Our Flag in the Philippines" to the
current April number of Frank Les
les Popular Monthly. No magazine
contribution could possess greater
authority, timely interest and value
than this full and graphic narrative of
the Philippine campaign, by the dis
tinguished army commander who, in
conjunction with Admiral Dewey, took
the city of Manila on August 18th of
last year. General Merritt's COM
ments on the present operations in the
Philippines, and upon the outlook for
the establishment of our military con-
troll there, are decidedly optimistic
and make first-class reading, which is
enhanced by elaborate pictorial Illus
tration. +. Marion Crawforu's "Ro-
nance of Rome," also profusely and
beautifully illustrated, is another not
able feature of the April Frank Leslie's
Popular Monthly. It is eloquent in its
descriptive characterization Of the
Eternal City, Of St. Peters and the
Vatican, and of the venerable Pope
Leo XIII. The number also includes
illustrated articles upon "Aguinaldo,
and the Filipino Envoys", "Bethlehem,
the Headquarters of Moravianism in
America" by John p. Ritter; ''Our
New Colonies, and Supar," by NJ. W.

ansport, Ind, has an electric plant
costing $10O,O4S, the receipts from
which in 1898 were $32,119 and ex-
penses $1s,313; yet it supplies incan-
descent lights to citizens at 80 cents
a year! In this city the same service
by private corporation, estimated on
two hours use per lamp nightly,
would cost about $500! In 10 cities,
tabulated by Salt Lake Living Issues,
the average cost per arc light before
municipal ownership was $247.50, and
after municipal ownership $55.
In Wheeling (where coal is very
cheap all the bonds issued for buying

The city burned itself $4,000 worth

which more than suffices to pay for
electric street lighting. In Great
Britain, so3 cities own their gas works
and the average cost to citizens is 81
cents, where before such ownership it
cost over $1.00. Salt Lake City pays
$72 per electric lamp to company;
jacksonville, Fla, has it's own plant,
