Illuminated BuoyS.

Another form of beacon for mariners
of smaller dimensions, but hardly less
important, is the illuminated buoy.
These floating lamp holders, placed in
an estuary where the available channel
is often only narrow one, bounded by
mud or sand banks only few feet below
the surface Of the water, are Invaluable
to shipping, Hitherto the illuminant
chiefly employed has been compressed
gas, necessitating high pressure reser-
voir and oompressing machinery.
Mr.. Wigham, whose name has long
been known in connection with light
house apparatus, has introduced min
eral oil lamp which can be fitted to
any existing buoy and will burn for a
long period at very. small cost. The
maintenance of one form of lamp can
be kept up at cost of one penny for "a
hours, and as no COMPRISING machinery
is required this is the only expense
plus the original cost of the lamp. The
approach to port-such as that of Liv-
erpool, for instance, where ship has
to enter through long avenue Of buoys
could By this invention be almost as
we'll lighted as a city street. Cham

MEN OF GENIUS,

Nature Likes Them Not and Invari-
ably CruShes the Breed.
Through all time men of genius have
scoffed at and have ridicuIed the at
tempts of purse proud old "richesse''
TO create superior orders of manhood.
Nor is this matter for wonder. They
were and are ridiculous. Yet these at
tempts are repeated every hour. Con-
sidering them one would suppose that
wealth, titles, dignities, are taligmans
which insure virtue and honor and per-
sonal worth and beauty in those to
whom they descend Talismans are
ridiculous, and SO are titles.
Nobility is of blood and not of gar
tiers, royal sponsors and christening
robes. Pedigrees, portraits and family
history when truthful tell us great
deal about the nobility of race. Titles,
4uarterings and patents are worthless,
and the production of great genius is
IN general as bad sign as the produc-
tion of great profigate. Races that
produce geniuses should be avoided.
The best is the second best-the normal.
Genius, as some one (Victor Hugo, I
thinK) has finely said, is promontory
stretching ont into the ocean of the in
finite. Look for the descendants of
Shakespeare, Bacon, Macaulay, We'll
ington, Nelson, Gibbon, Swift, Vol
taire. Carlyle, Bonaparte, Goldsmith,
Spencer, Milton, Cromwell, Disraeli-
to take few names at random-and
you will find that they are not, for
the genius is always transgressor of
the normal-a "sport." He is never
symmetrical. Such one nature likes
not, and she makes provision for the ex-
tinction of his race. Humanitarian.

The slaughter Of birds has almost en-
tirely removed one of the delightful ao-
compartments of life in the rural east
---tEae music of the feathered songstere.
ApropOs of this, it may be said that one
of tbs most pleasant features of the drive
through the Yellowstone National park
is the apparent intimacy between man
and the animal and bird life in the
park. Thanks to the wise and stringent
regulations, no shooting is allowed with
in its boundaries.
The result, says an English tour
ist, lis positively charming. Hundreds
Of little chipmunks, with their gaudy
striped backs, scampered impudently
about or peered at the passing coach
from the roadside. The squirrel did not
bolt for the nearest tree, but nodded a
welcome. All bird life treated as like
wise. Even the lordly eagle hovered
near, and the wild turkey stalked un-
concernedly through the rank grass. We
were fortunate enough to see fine
specimen of the wolf tribe. He stood, a
beautiful creature, and watched Us out
Of sight, showing only curiosity, not
fear. Another time were perceived doe
and fawn grazing by the road. Not un-
til we were within few feet did they
seek the shelter of the woods, yet not
to fly. They simply moved aside. Here
at least mankind was regarded as a
friend-one who could be trusted. The
only animal who ran away was brown
bear. He turned tail at the sight of a
coaching party, yet it was quite COM
mon thing for bears to approach close
to the hotels at evening to feel on the
refuse thrown out. It was an after din
ner relaxation for the guests to watch
them feeding. They munched and dis
puted the choicest morsels, for the most
part Indifferent to the company. Only
when we became inquisitive and ap-
preached too near did they retire, and
these animals were perfectly free and
unfettered IN their movements. 1t may
read like fairy tale, but it is solid
fact. Troy Times.

A warm England.

The extremes Of outdoor temperature
in England vary more than 1913 degrees.
The greatest heat probably on record
was registered in the valley of the
Medway On July %, 1868, when the
thermometer at Ton bridge stood in the
shade at 1001a degrees F. Eleven years
later, in December, 1879, 55 degrees Of
frost were recorded at Blackadder, in
Berwickshire-i. e., 90 degrees below
zero +. More remarka BILE, however,
than the heat in summer were the hot
winters OF 1748 and 1857 and the warm
Januarys of 1877. 1884 and 1885,

A Fine Program.

The new artists at the Orpheum
took the audience by storm last
evening. Frank @. and Lillian F.
Smith gave an exhibition Of rapid
rifle and pistol shooting that would
have done credit to the '95 heroes OF
Makapuu fame.
The cake walk was fine and it is
hard to say who will take the "bun"
after the contest is finished to-mor-
row evening
Don't let the children forget the
matinee tomorrow. Besides seeing
the fun each holder of a ticket will
receive a pao kage OF nice candy and
a prize. Admission for children is
only 10 cents.
The management OF the Orpheum
has made arrangement for present
ing the famous "Ssml O. Posen"
with N. B. Curtis in the title role.
That event will take place on the
18th instant.

Will the conspirators of tn IL OF
January, 1898, arise and explain to
the public by what manner Of
squeezing do they claim the right
to celebrate the 18th OF November
as Independence Day, when they on
the 18th of January, 1893, stole Ha-
wall and bartered it away to the
United States Government for four
million dollars. Some years ago,
England seized Hawaii and held IL
for about six months, then restored
it back with honor. America, boast
ed land OF freedom, liberty and the
rights OF man, not only exon Grated
her Minister who was in league with
the filibusters OF Hawaii, but receiv-
ed the stolen goods and unlike Eng
land, hangs on to the same like grim
death to a dead Indian. At the
present time money in the United
States is the all aborbing interest.
Money rules the whole political
situation. Money rules many OF the
churches. In plain English, the
love OF money is driving the United
States headlong in the conquest Of
the weaker nations. In few years
time, il there ia not a radical change
in the United States, an honest man
will be looked upon as curiosity.
How out of place the following from
Daniel Webster sounds at the pres
ent time. "If we cherish the virtues
and the principles Of our fathers,
Heaven will assist US to carry on the
work OF human liberty and human
happiness Auspicious omens cheer
us. Great examples are before us.
Our own armament now shines
brightly upon our path. Beneath
this illumination let us walk the
course OF liiepend at its close de-
voutly commend our beloved coun-
try, the common parent OF us all. to
the Divine Benigaity."

Two strangers fieeced the female atten-

of S. Thursday night One of them ten
dered a $40 bill for a nine cent purchase,
and afterward his companion found 10
cent piece in his pockets. The 10 cent
piece was offered for the payment and a
request was made for the return of the $40
bill. When the young man returned the
change of the $40 bill to the young lady ii
was 50 short, which was not discovered
until some time afterward. The young
men skipped.
Lieutenant of Police Charles J. Mathis
has brought suit against Roundsman
George Gusrang to recover $500 damages
for defamation of character. Mathis, ii
was claimed by Gusrang, slept on his beat,
was disobedient and negligent in his duty,
and on this evidence he was suspended by
the Police Committee of Common Coun-
Gil. Pending trial he was reduced to the
ranks of roundsman and Gusrang put in
his place.
The charges were not proven at the trial
and Mathis was returned to duty as a
roundsman, but was not reinstated in the
Office of lieutenant.
The plaintiff claims in his affidavit that
his character and standing had been great
ly damaged, and that he has suffered di-
vers other injuries through the charges OF
Gusrang. Major Franklin G. Woolman,
his attorney, has served notice on Common
Council that he would apply to Supreme
Court Justice Charles G. Garrison, at Cam
den, on Saturday, November 1s, for a writ
of certiorari, carrying the action Of Com
mon Council in reducing Mathis to the
rank of roundsman to the Supreme Court
