According to the Financial Chron-
;cle the trust combines for 1899
will represent $6,O00,Oo0,0Oo, ex-
elusive of railway and coal COM
binations. In this connection it is
we'll to note that there is already on
foot a movement on foot to solidify
several trusts with combined cap
ital of $SOO,OO0,OOO. So the big
sharks are beginning to whet their
teeth for the little ones. By-and-by
we shall have the billion-dollar
trust, and then the multi-bill trust
and after that the deluge.-South-

That's Correct.

When the news was fitted over
the wires in November, 1896, that
Mckinley had been elected, it was
announced by the Oregonian that
1000 commercial travellers would be
started on the road at once solicit
ing orders, because confidence had
been restored and business would
be resumed. The Oregonian forgot
to state at that time that inside of
three years over 100000 CONNER
cial travellers would be called off
the road because manufacturers
would be enabled to form trusts
Whereby the services OF the "drum-
mers" would be dispensed with, but
such is the case.-Centralia News.

Mysterious

The friends of John q. Adams
are getting uneasy as to his where
abouts. Jimmie Mcdowell was
the last one to hear anything from
John, and he wrote while yet at
Skagway, saying that he would
start for Dawson next day, and
that Jimmie should not answer UNI
til he heard from him. Since then
not word has been heard from
him. Uncle John Mcdowell has
received couple Of letters from the
man that John l.. had hired to
work his claims while away. The
letters were addressed to John l..
and turned over to Uncle John.
The party wrote as though ne
thought John q. was here, not men,
tioning anything about his return or
starting to return to Dawson last
fall.

WATER MEASURE.
Something that Farmers May
Read with Proyt.

Legal Definition of the Term as
Applied to the Use of Irrigators -
Ignorance of the term In spite of
the many times the Citrograph has
published the legal definition of
the miners inch as applied to IT.
rigators' use, it seems there is
much ignorance concerning it. A
recent number of the Pecos Valley,
New Mexico, Argus, says: The
term, miners inch, is of California
origin, and not know or used in
any other locality, it being method
of measurement adopted by the
various ditch companies in dis
posing of water to their customers.
The term is more or less in
definite, for the reason that the
water companies do not use the
same head above the center of the
aperture and the inch varies from
1876 to 1873 cubic feet per minute
each, but the most common
Measurement is through an aper-
ture two inches high and whatever
length is required and through Il
plank 1 ! inches thick. The lower
edge of the aperture should be two.
inches above the bottom of the
measuring box and the plank five
inches high above the aperture,
thus making a six inch heal above
the center of the stream. Each
square inch of this opening rep
resents miners inch, which is
equal to a flow of one and one half
cubic feet per minute.
According to the present laws of
California, miners inch equals one
fftieth cubic foot per second.
One cubic foot ,4S052 gallons.
lone miners inch for "a hours
6Ux6Ox24x7. 1902
so -12,926 gals.
Now we can deduct from the
above figures the following:
A miners inch for tw enty-four
hours is 1926 gallons.
A miners inch for one hour is
53S 7-12 or 53S, 5S333 plus gallons.
A miners inch for one minute is
S7O3-72O gallons, or, the merest
fraction under9 gallons.
From these figures it will be
comparatively easy for anyone to
practically measure the flow OF
water from a we'll pipe or spring,
if the flow is small. For measuring
a large flow a weir is necessary.

One on the Wagnerites.

One OF the most singular suits on
record has just been decided in the
New York Courts. Marcus Braun Sc
cured a judgment against the wagner
Palace Car Company for $3.50 damages
for mistake made by one OF the COM
panys conductors, who allotted a berth
already sold to Braun to woman.
When the error was discovered every
berth in the train was sold, and
Braun was compelled to sit up in the
smoking compartment during a trip
from Cleveland to New York. When
Braun bought Lis coupon for the
berth he left his luggage in the seat
and went to the smoking compartment
He did not return for two hours ac-
cording to his own story, but when he
did he found the berth made up and
occupied. The comments of the other
passengers SO injured his feelings, he
says, that money compensation is
due him, he alleges The woman in
the berth produced a coupon which
was an exact duplicate of the coupon
given to Braun.-Cin. Com. Trib

Cows Wearing Glasses.

Cattle with spectacles are to be seen
on the Russian steppes. The steppes
are covered with snow more than six
months in the year. The cows subsist
ON the tufts of grass which crop
above the snow, and the rays Of the
sun on the snow are so dazzling as to
cause blindness. To obviate this ca
lamity, it occurred to "a kind-hearted
man to protect the cows eyes in the
same way as those of human beings,
and he manufactured smoke-colored
spectacles which could be safely worn
by cattle. These spectacles were a
great success, and are now Worn by
upwards of 10000 head of cattle, who
no longer suffer from the snow-blind-
ness which once caused such suffering
among them.-COllier's Weekly.

An American Saved BY a Fill
pino.

One of our brave American soldiers,
Just returned from Manila, is loud in
his praise of the Filipinos, claiming
he owes his life to one of them. 1t
happened in this way: The Americans
had been gradually losing their posi-
tion near Paola, and during the re-
treat the soldier above mentioned
lost his knapsack which had just been
filled with rations. Shortly afterwards
the Americans regained their lost po-
sitlon, but the knapsack was nowhere
to be found. While looking around
for his bag of cod, the soldier saw a
Filipino running across the fields with
his property and tried to get a shot at
him but failed. For the time being
he was very angry, but shortly after
ward was very thankful, for he learn
ed that some of the boys who had eat
en- their canned beef were very ill. He
now thanks the Filiplnos for stealing
his beef as it saved his life. Another
life saver, if you have the blues, is the
farce comedy, Town Topics" which
appears at the Auditorium tomorrow
night.

Nos. l69 and
III Front Street,
Marietta, Ohio.

This event was attended
by nearly three thousand
children from one till four
o'clock, Friday afternoon.
The big storerooms and the
street were crowded with
eager, happy children who
called to pay their respects to
the first Santa Claus Of the
season.
The little folks enjoyed
their call immensely.
The distinguished grey
bearded host received children
of all ages from infants in
arms to those fourteen years
Of age.
All the youngsters were
given most acceptable tokens
Of affection from Santa-the
same consisting Of a box Of
candies and nuts and the
Stores Holiday paper.
The room which was used
as Santa Claus's reception
parlor will be used during the
Holiday trade for the display
of Toys, and goods of interest
to children.
A slight mishap befell the
elevator, but it being a War
ner Safety, it stopped instant
ly, and no harm could have
resulted.
The reception was the larg-
est ever held in this vicinity.
Several children left mes
sages for Santa Claus, which
will no doubt be properly at
tended to when the time
comes.
Six big rooms Of the Store
were crowded with the happy
children, and it was pleas
ant time for MIR. Hutchison as
II was for the little visitors.
