aggregate capacity of 617250 tons' When navigation opens this spring there will be twenty-three docks, with total pocket capacity of S94,0S2 tons. An increase of nearly 100000 tons of coal over the shipments of 1899 is also eX- pected, while it is believed that the number of passengers handled from Chicago to the numberless lake resorts during the coming season will not fall below 100000. New excursion routes are to be opened, and the carrying ca pacity of the passenger steamers from Chicago will be doubled.
 With a ship canal to the Mississippi and an improved river Chicago will feel and be bigger than ever.

THE PAY OF ARMY OFFICERS.

ITE EAI OF ARN OFFlCER5.
 "The fact that General Lawton left only one thousand dollars in back pay as an estate is surprise to people who don't know the ins and outs of military life" said a former captain in the Uni ted States army at the St. Charles Ho- tel last evening. "The truth is that nearly all of our army ard navy off, cers who aren't lucky enough to have private means are what would be called poor. Those with Independent resources are very few, and those who have saved are handful of bachelors whb have talent in that direction, which they have cultivated at the ex- pense of most of the things that. make life worth living. The others--the mar ried men who are solely dependent upon their pay--live from hand to mouth, and have to do some desperately close figuring to make both ends meet. The naval officers have rather the worst of it, because they have to keep up two es- tabiishments-their own aboard ship and one for the family ashore; but, on the other hand, the social obligations in cured by an army officer are moro nu- merous and more expensive. The pay of both branches seems very liberal to q civilian, but he is ignorant of many of the outlays unavoidable in the service. The cost of uniforms and accoutrements

NOTHING TOO coon ron UrM.


 A dispatch from Washington says that General Joseph Wheeler, when asked if he would accept the position of Brigadier-General in the regular army, answered that he would if it were offer ed him. Nothing is known yet regard ing the Presidents plans. No vacancy will take place in the Brigadier- -Gener alship until Major General Merritt re- tires in June, and Brigadier- General Otis becomes Major General
 We hope that if General Wheeler wants to be or is willing to be a Brig adier-General in the regular army the place will be speedily and generously handed to him. Little Old Fighting Joe" deserves the best there is going He is thoroughly brave and patriotic man. Though almost sixty-four years old he is still full of fight and rejoices in battle. He was educated at West Point, and he has shown himself thoroughly qualified to be a Brigadier- General in the regular army He may we'll be made one as soon as possible, if he will be.

quakes occur where there are no traces
 of volconic action. The Charleston
 shock was felt over an area of 100000
 square milee, a region as free from vol canic action as any portion of the globe. ! Were the earth molten within, this
 fourth would be an excellent eXplaha- tion and the law might thus be formu- lated. When the crust is weak vol
 cano is the result, a vent to pent-up force; but when the crust is strong. the force only serves to quake it.
 It remains for the geolgist to ad- vance a theory and time is required Tor satisfactory demonstration 1t seems that the cause is due solely to the
 shrinking of the earth and to elevation
 and subsistence of great land areas
 whether above or below water The sur face of the earth is a series of balances,
 some areas are sinking as others rise.
 This change slowly continues for cen-
 turies, and then the balance reverses.
 1t is in this way that mountain chains
 are formed and then once more SUD merged, only to rise again. When the
 strain becomes too great the eubstrata yields. Deep down they begin to crack Assures run for miles irregularly joint ing is being carried on, faults are form
 ing rents and Assures opening every where. The strata frequently reach the limit of tenacity when subjected to strains go tremendous, and when they yield the result is a mighty shiver, a culver transmitted in undulatory waves in all directions, with a velocity regu- lated by the character of the rocks through which it travels Earthquakes are the mightiest of agents which have fashioned the surface of the earth, and the change is going on to-day. Some mountains like the White Hills are free from such disturbance, says an oppon- ent of this theory They are of very ancient origin, so old in fact that the geologist hesitates to name the period of their formation. But they have known their days of qualSing, when the opicentrum of the vibration was above them. Their long and deep ravinets, their numberless faults and great arcs of magnificent jointing show all too con clusively that they have been subject to strains of prodigious proportions, that they have yielded and sent vibrations wide and deep, above which no human could stand no terrestrial life be secure.-Boston Transcript.

COIN orr.

Those who have been using cottonseed oil labelled olive oil will perhaps be glad to know that they may soon have a change Corn oil will probably soon be sold as olive oil. On every kernel of corn there is little fleck of yellow, known by the experts as the germ" port this germ must be removed else rancidity is almost certain to set in, and the cargo is in danger of being de- stroyed. The process for the removal of this germ is known as degerming, and it's prosecution results in the pro- duction of an oleaginous substance, the only use for which hitherto was as substitute for linseed oil in the manufacture of paints and for lubricating purposes Eff forts have been made from time to time to utilize it as food stuff, but failure to deprive 1t of its unpalatable qualities has rendered these futile. It is now announced in the West, how ever, that a process has been devised which is warranted to clairfy, deodor- ize, and make palatable this corn oil without material loss, and at the in consequential cost of ten cents gallon There are now 5,O0O,OOo gallons of crude corn oil turned out annually from the American mills, and as it has only been in connection with corn shipped for export that the degerming process has been used the quantity may be in- creased indefinitely. Experimenting chemists are quoted by the Chicago papers as claiming that the corn oil is far more digestible than any of the oils now used for culinary purposes.
 Good. The more kinds of olive oil we have the merrier.

CHICAGO IND YHH LAKET TAA EFIC.

CHICAGO I ND THE LAKE TEA F'FIC. Chicago river is called "a great trade artery" in Chicago, but the street rail- road tunnels interfere seriously with it's arterial usefulness. There is talk of fix ing things so that the river will not be obstructed in any way and so that 1t can be used by the larger lake freight CTS. When this is done it will be greater trade artery than ever Mean while Chicago is congratulating itself on the fact that it is sure to get large share of the increase of lake traffic that gross tonnage of the vessels entering and clearing Chicago and Calumet har- bors for 1900 will exceed 17,oOO00O tons, an excess of 100000 tons over the totals of 1899. The greater portion of this gain ments, which it is believed will amount to 3600000 tons.

NOT LIKE NEW HdTEN.

| New York is big city, but it is away behind the times in some respects. An cient horse cars still crawl through some of itsartreets, and it's policemen don't seem to be able to detect and ar rest lawbreakers. Moreover, it's women don't seem to be up to date in the mat complaint made by a Chicago man in the New York Journal: While oc-' cupying seat in the fifth row of the New York theatre in company with friend, two ladies sat directly in front of us with hats that had the appear ance of miniat ture flower gardens, and it was almost an impossibility to see the stage. A glance around the theatre revealed the fact that a good many of the men in the audience were placed in the same position as the writer. The women of New York have little or no regard for those seated back of them"
 We should think it would be rather humiliating for New York to be thus re- buked by Chicago man, but we hope the rebuke will be rightly received. It is pleasing to think that no such re- buke can be slung at New Haven by a Chicago man, or any other man. The women of New Haven are right up to date in the matter of politeness in the theatre. They take their hats off and they give those behind them a view of beautiful heads as weh as a view of what is going on on, the stage. It is good to live in New Haven, the home of learning and the abode of refine- ment

below the waist in front can be held in waists is low, critics can't wag tongues continuously.
 Reception gowns have taken on new richness that in many examples may be classed as gorgeousness through the advent of panne weaves. Velvets have so long been the, almost exclusive property of matrons and dowagers, that its panne weaves have been taken up very eagerly by younger women. Rich of texture, beautiful in colorings and velvety, they do not of themselves make the wearer look a dowager. Here is shown a handsome reception gown of black panne velvet. It had a front bread a, collar and revers embroidered in wllite pink and green silk floss, pleated white silk front, high collar and belt of ''le goods. The embroidery also shades were repeated in the short fringe that edged collar and revers. It is a peculiarity of this velvet weave that 1t will bear deal of trimming without presenting an appearance of being too highly wrought, and yet that it will be strikingly hqndsome when very little ornamentation Is employed. Practically the only danger of overriding is in choosing too rich a color. This applies to gowns only for in trimmings the brilliant weaves are quite safe if ap- piled in reasonable quantity.

The basis must, of course, be the same as that in the United States, religious freedom and the maintenance, by each organiza- ton, of it's own institutions. These facts should be recognized by Pope Leo, and his influence and power thrown up- on the side of the people, even if there be some cost of property to particular monastic orders.

Charles w. Farmer, editor of the Millinery Trade Review, denies the truth of the report that a contract has been made by a Delaware man for from 5000 to 10000 small birds for the ornamentation of women's hats MT. Farmer declares that very few Ameri- can birds are used in millinery. Fur ther than that, he says that artificial birds are used oftener than the real creatures. With chicken feathers, cot ton buskram and a paste pot man can manufacture any style of bird Q woman desires for her hat, and the artificial bird is preferred to the real one. The eyes are of glass, the bill of wood, the breast of chicken feathers, beautifully dyed, and the legs and claws of wound silk. MT. Farmer says he cannot help it if some people think millinery mer- chants and manufacturers go proving about the streets of New York with guns on their shoulders killing off every bird they see. But he thinks it a shame that milliners should be bounded as they are by some the Audubon societies without anyone taking the trouble to cf wholesale bird slaughter.
