HUMOROUS INCIDENTS.
A Visitor Was Having Carnival OF a
Time in the Rain

Time in the Rain.
One of the amusing incidents of the
Carnival yesterday was that occasioned
by a stranger in the city, out in the
downpour OF rain with a japanese UNI
breiia over him and fan in his hand
while the rain dripped from his nose, chin
and ears. He was having a Carnival
of time, and didn't care who saw him
have good time.
One of the old ladies from one Of the
counties stopped at the Standard Oil
Company's booth
Laws she said, ST didn't know the
Standard Oil Company made Inolasses
and syrup, too as she admired the cases
of lubrcating and other oils, tastefuliy
displayed at the booth.
About O'Clock A. N. Friday the strollers
along the Fair Street, and others along
that route who were endeavorins to
snatch a little sleeps from the festins
hours. were awakened TO the realization
of the Carnival by the appearance in the
one of the bands.
One Of them had a drum, another
French horn and the third trombone.
They were attempting to play the Car

Canadian Otter .".>s. and slides Down
 HnI Just for Fun.

Bnl Just for Fun
 t seems strange to think that any fuli grown. four-footed animal should indulge in play like child. and yet this is what the otter does. His amusement is tobagganing. and his playground is a slope. covered with ice OF snow. that goes down grade into a pool of water No little boy. with a new sled, ever enjoyed a coast down an ice-bound hill more than this beau- tIful creature from the frozen II .sh. The otter is quite large. sometimes weighing as much as 9 pounds. He resembles the seal and the mink. be- ing, however, of heavier build, and is both supple and strong. Living for the most part in water. he preys on fiah, which his swimming and diving ability enables him to catch easily. The entrance to his home. which is bufrow in the bank of | stream, Is under the water In the early spring when the ice begins to thaw, these animals start on their travels from one stream to another, sometimes spena- ing months on the journey. If they happen to see an inviting hill by the Rayside they immediately stop their pilgrimage and prepare for some sport. One of the number leaves the water and slowly climbs the slope, making a smooth hollow in the ice with his wet body. When the slide is pre- pared he lies fiat on his belly. thrusts his nose forward, and turning his fore paws under his soft sides, goes sail ing swiftly down. His speed steadily increases until he reaches the water. Silently he parts the surface and is !32st from sight for a few seconds; then his head appears above the surface and you can hear him give a call which sounds like a whistle. This is a sig nal. The next otter assumes the posi- ton and shoots down to the bottom to join his companion, who has mean while crawled out on the ice. Then another whistle aDd the next in order slides and plunges, and the perform anee is kept up until each one has several trips to his Exchange.

Irrigation in Siberia.

If the winters are long in Siberia. and very cold, on the other hand, the summers are extremely warm and dry. The small streams of water dry up dur ing this season, and agriculture suffers much from this state of things. To remedy the evil. the inhabitants of certain districts in winter collect the snow and accumulate it at the bottom of some narrow valley. They press it and make it compact so that it will be more resistant to thawing Al the enz of the winter they cover the enormous piles which they have thus formed with branches. straw or earth, in order to protect the snow against the rays of the sun and the exterior heat. Then, when after long days without rain the water of the streams begin to dry up. the snow, in spite of it's covering, commences to melt, and by means of a ditch made for this purpose, t9e water which runs down supplies the river un- til the return of winter.

Alnska orcwing Warmer.

Prospective visitors and gold=seekers in the KIondike region may extract zome comfort from the discovery. made by the Hartman Alaska expedition. Shat most of the glaciers which abound in that territory are recedfng. The fact is an indication that the average weather there is growing warmer If 1t were growing colder the g1acers would be advancing, while if it were about the same one year with anethet they would maintain the same general position, neither creeping nearer to the sea nor melting away from their ter minal moraines. The rate of glacial recession is so slow, however, that fur overcoats and warm sleeping bags are likely to remain as a payt of the neces- sary equipment of Alaskan travel for some years to come Nothing, it may be added, is slower thar the move ment of a glacier, excert the settle ment ot the Alaskan boundary dis pute.

The ashes of the books are in the bottom of the furnace of the Memorial United Brethren church of Toledo, to which he privately consigned them. He threatened to destroy this collection some time ago, but delayed doing so until the night of Jan. g. With su- preme satisfaction and a feeling that he was doing Gods will. the aged law yer watched his precious volumes with CT and crumble into ashes in the fur mace heat Many of the volumes were exceedingly rare. There were a large number of manuscripts and first prints not to be found in any other library in America.

 Gov. Dick" Leary of Cham is civ Hiking the island on the lightning ex~ press method. It will be completely Americanized in about a year. In a let ter to his brother, an army officer, the governor announces that he has abol- ished slavery (which was exactly right, compelled some friars to leave the island, amended the marriage laws with regard to polygamy, prohibited the liquor traffic, and forbidden drunk enness. In his drink order the gov ernor sternly said Drunkenness is the chief source of all crime and trou- bIe in this island, and must and shall cease" That he is benevolent des- pot cannot be gainsaid. For exam pie, this order: "F'oa the protection Of government interests and as a safe guard against the machinations, de- vices and schemes of spectators and adYenturers, it is hereby ordered that all persons who claim ownership of land in this island or it's dependencies are prohibited from selling or trans ferring any portion of such property without first obtaining the consent Of the governor.

While the Workmen5 were clearing away the debris from the walls of the temple Bel they dis. covered in a hole which had been clos ed up with sundried bricks large goose egg on a mat of reeds. Why the egg was placed there is 9 mystery. as it has no connection with any known Babylonian custom Dr Pet CTS thinks that it may be looked upon as joke on the part Of one or more of the ancient workmen, the object of which will probably never be known. The temple was built at very re mote time probably in the reign Of Akus-gal (B. c. 2200), or even earlier, so that the egg is over 900 years eld.

Advance in Higher Education

The advanced stages of education are becoming more thickly crowded. Twen- five years ago only per cent of the population was enrolled in the public high schools, now the percentage is 0.61-the number of such pupils having increased from 22,900 in 1876 to 449,- 600 in 1898. The number in private high schools has increased in the same time from 73,740 to 105, ,225-there hav- ing been decrease relative in pop ulation. This indicates a large meas nre of advance in the public high schools as preparatory schools for col- leges over what was the case years ago.

Our s~andlng Army.

The proposition to retain standing army of 100000 is wholly unnecessary and unjustifable," in the opinion of the Philadelphia Public Ledger. The country cannot afford such a piece Of extravaganza. A glance at the Ger man army budget and a comparison with the way we do things here in the infancy of the growth of imperialism and Hilitarism seems to show that we spend millions and get ridiculous re- suits. The appropriation for our army department for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1900, is $16S 0SS, ,358, and the estimates of the treasury department for the next fiscal year place the war departments expenditure at s190, ,112.- S51.
