The Island of Guam, $500 miles
from Honolulu and 1900 miles from
Manila, is to be developed eventually
into o thoroughly protected naval
base for American war vessels in the
Pacific Ocean. A preliminary sur
vey is to be undertaken at once by a
mixed commission of army and naval
officers. Guam is to be made a verit-
able Gibraltar of American interests
in the Pacific, the vast commerce of
which the ambitious commonwealths
of the Pacific coast expect some day to
control. AS the first far distant forti
fed post owned by the United States
the little island will be invested here
after with vastly enhanced historical
interest.

OF the graduates of Yale University
from 1895 to 1899 only twentynine
per cent. were from New England,
while thirty eight per cent. were from
the Middle Atlantic States, twenty
two per cent. from the North Central
States and seven per cent. from the
South. 1t is also a striking fact that
a large proportion of the graduates
adopt business careers. AT the begin
ming of the century a mere handful
became business men, while now the
percentage is one-third, another third
entering the law.

According to the London Law Jour-
nal it Is not safe for an English or
American woman to marry even dis
tinguished Frenchman without max

advice. A marriage valid under the
laws of another country will not be

unless the husband has complied with
all the formalities required by the per-
sonal law. The result is too many

1t has been noted that the men who
are demo- strating that man can live
well IN fifteen cents a day are gener-
ally the men who can afford to. That
is to say, they have leisure and money
to experiment. They can afford to
hire a good cook and to pay a buyer
for time spent in securing the neigh
borhood searching for places where
the prices of provisions can be scaled
down q fraction Of an inch. To re-
duce anything to a science-even the
question of eating-requires time and
study. The poor man cannot afford
this He must buy where it is handy
and cook no : he 60. And 1t costs
him more than fifteen cents day.The

1t is evident from articles lately
published in the Pail Mall Gazette
and other London newspapers that a
great many Englishmen are haunted
with the belief that the French will
attempt to invade their island at no
distant date. The theory of the
alarmists is that after the Paris Ex-
position is closed, the Waldeck- -Rous-
seau Ministry will be succeeded by a
Cabinet representing the so-called Ma
tionalists, who are bitter haters of
their neighbors across the Channel,
and who are convinced that their
country's prestige can be best re-
trieved at England's expense.

The trolley roads are asking permis-
sion to carry freight. In some sec
tions they fairly gridiron the country
districts, and will no doubt become
important factors in bringing farm
products fresh to the markets. collect
ing milk for city trade and for large
central creameries. With such posi-
biiities in view towns should in any
case compel new lines to widen mar
row highways, bridges, etc, over
which they pass. Freight traffic over
narrow roads would become an intol-
cradle nuisance to farmers travelling
the highways, while over wide roads
the hours devoted to freight might be
so arranged as to cause little incon-
venience, says the American Agrieul-
tgfist.

Locomotives Burning Oil.

All the locomotives which are IN
service on the Southern California
road, are now burning oil for iuel'
The Southern California is a part oil
the Santa Fe system, and extend'
from Barstow to National City, and
inclusive of its branches, is about 6Ou
miles in length.
For several years, the burning OF oil
in the locomotives Of the Southern
California road has been experiment.
ed withand has proved very successful.
Not only does the oil make an exec =
lent fuel. but there are many features
about the use OF the oil that recon-
mends it in this respect. Most impor-
tant among these is its cheapness and
the large quantity of The oil to &c
found in California.
The main oil wells from which the
Southern California road procureS its
oil, are located at Fullerton and 10
addition, there are others 10 numerous
places along the line Of the road. The
oil is used in its crude state, aud makes
very hot fire.
The locomotives which burn this
oil for fuel, are equipped especially
for this purpose. The space in the
tender usually used for coal, is con-
verted into a tank to hold the supply
of oil. Pipes lead from this oil tank
to the fire bJx Of the locomotive,
where the oil is forced out in a spray
and burned. Unlike most fuel, there
Is little or no smoke or dirt from the
cunning oil, and as a result the engi-
neer and fireman can keep themselves
scrupulouSly clean, while on their
run. 1t is not infreQuent to see the
engine men wearing white starched
shirts and collars, with thf rest Of
their clothes TO match. It is said
that some of the men upon various
occasions have ittired themselves 10
dress suits while doing their work.
