cluded Hon. Charles DENLY con-
| tributes TO the same number some
further arguments Why the Treaty
Should be Ratified.
In the Engineering Magazine for
February Commodore Melville sets
down his Readings from Experience
in Naval Engineering. As engineer
in-chief of the United States navy, he
| is fresh from studying the work OF
modern war vessels in action-an ex-
perience never afforded here
tofore to the naval authorities of any
civilized country. Lessons drawn
from such an opportunity by such an
authority are full of weight and inter-
est Commodore Melville's paper is
to be continued in March. OF prime
Importance, too, especially at this
time, is W. Henry Hunters review of
the Panama canal. The fine pictures
aid in showing a state of progress far
in advance of that generally imagined.
Suggestions of industrial opportu-
nitv in newly opening countries are
carried in MIR. CoX's account of the
Mineral Resources of Cuba and in the
review, by Senior Lluveras, of Porto
Rico. and its needs of electric tram
ways. DUH art HtHuSOuuSlN IlluS-
trated. So also is Mr.. Parsons dis
cussion of The Tall Building Under
the Test of Fire. Machine-tool
makers will find absorbing interest in
Mr.. Orcutt's contrast of European and
American practice, in Mr.. Norris pa
per on cost keeping, and in Mr.. Ma
gees presentation of German export
methods. The Review and Index in
clude the whole range of the engineer
ing profession and its literature.
Mrs Margaret Deland's Old Ches-
ter Tales, which were such n delight
full feature of Harper's Magazine dur
ing 1898, have gone into their third
edition, although it has been hardly
month since they were issued in book
form. Perhaps the chief reason for
the universal favor with which they
have been received is that they deal
with life which is familiar and dear
to almost every American-at least,
to those of the older generation. 1t
is the quaint, oldfashioned life OF
little Pennsylvania town, somewhere
near the MARYLAND line, which, it is
said, was Mrs. Deland's childhood
home. Perhaps that is why the whole
book is glowing with life: it is strong
and virile; it makes one laugh and
cry almost in the same breath. 1t is
art of the greatest kind, and Mrs. De-
land has proved that as writer of
short stories she is unsurpassed by
any living American. With its beau
tiful and sympathetic illustrations by
Howard Pyle, Old Chester Tales is n
volume which every lover of good art
will prize.

ONE of the Legislators at Springfield
proposes to have the elements of ag-
riculture taught in the ungraded
schools of the state. A bill is drawn
to go into effect July l, 1901. Such
suitable studies shall be prepared un-
der the supervision of the dean of the
college of agriculture, the professor
of horticulture of the state university,
the state entomologist and the state
superintendent of public instruction,
and it is part of the duties of these
officials to prepare such studies. On
and after July l. 1901, no teacher
shall be employed to teach in an un-
graded school vino has not passed a
satisfactory examination on the sub
ject and the modes of teaching it. 1t
shall be the duty of the county super
intendent of schools to enforce the
provisions OF the act.

AMONG the passengers on the mill
tary transport Sherman, which left
for Manila via the Mediterranean sea
and Suez canal last week, were the
following sons of their fathers
princes of the royal line Adelbert
Hay, son of the secretary of state:
Eugene Hale, Jr., son of the senator
from Maine; John NJ. Dalzell, son of
the representative from Pittsburg, and
James w. Wadsworth, Jr.. son of the
representative from New York. These
young representatives of our new
empire" are on their way to inspect
the ''new possessions" of the empire,
and will make a tour of the world at
the expense of the taxpayers. In
order to secure passage on the trans
port, they were booked as clerks to
one of the quartermasters without
compensation The Springfield Regis
ter may well ask: .'On what meat do
these our Caesars feed that they have
grown so great?'

The republican caucus has decided
not to tackle the money question this
session, and the McHannaites will be
very chary about tackling it next ses-
sion in view of the preside ntial cleo

Pile are inclined to be suspicious of
any movement that contemplates re-
tiring the greenbacks and silver dol
lars and giving the national banks en-
tire control of the country. There
will be very little currency tinkering

Gratis will attend TO matters.
