An exciting runaway occurred last
evening on Main street. A farmer in
attempting turn his team around
cramped the light wagon in making
a short turn, upsetting the vehicle and
soaring the team, which started to run.
The horses ran around the public
watering trough, dragging the man,
who finally let go off the lines. The
buggy was completely demolished and
the team was captured over near Mr..
Lally's.
Having read brief description of the
apparatus for wireless telegraphy, Pro-
lessor w. C. VanNess determined to
try his hand at the machine. In one

which is a great object lesson to the

Van Ness believes that he can soon
complete an instrument strong enough
to send a message over town. Should
he succeed he has promised to place
the receiver liz the REVIEW Office where
all may see the latest wonder of science.
The pertects machines now send mes
sages for distance of 100 miles and it

a BIG BUSINESS.

One good thing which the coming of
the new roads have done for Denison is
found in the increased activity of Mich
olson Bros. egg packing establishment.
Formerly the greater part of the eggs
packed by the firm were put up at
their Grand junction plant in order to
get the benefit of the competing lines.
Now greatly increased number are
packed at Denison The firm is now
employing, and paying good wages to
nineteen men. This is indeed q factory
of which Denison may be proud. We
wish Nicholson Bros. such success that
next year they may employ twice nine
teen men.

TOBACCO GROWERS PROTEST.
Demand for Removal of the Export
Duty on the Weed.

HAVANA, Sept. There is a strong
movement among tobacco growers to OBJ
tain the removal of the export duty from
all tobacco, or if this cannot be obtained
to secure at least the removal of the duty
from the lowest grade The 'Diario de la
Marina" says that so per cent OF the profits
of the producers of the lowest class of to-
bacco goes to pay the export duty.
Practically none OF the lowest grade.
which is ussd in the manufacture OF cigar
cites goes to the United States. As all
tobacco pays export duty on weight. the
duty is relatively much higher on the low
grade. which pays about SO per hundred
pounds, about % per cent of its value. The
best leaf worth many times more. pays
the same duty. In Pinar del Rio they say
the proportion of low grade tobacco is alb
normally high. The planters claim that
buyers have not purchased it on account of
the duty. thus preventing its being handled
at a profit. This kind of tobacco rots very
easily.
Much annoyance is felt in the ranks Of
the National party owing to the fact that
the promises made before the recent cleo
ton that municipal offices would be given
to members of the party have not been full
filled Mayor Rodriguez. however, has not
chosen TO dismiss the old incumbents to
make room for Nationals. Recently ma
iority of the municipality passed a vote
denouncing the mayor for his unwilling
ness to do what the party desired, but 1t

Circulation Statement.
The Administration Panic.

The Times already has called attention
TO the alarm which is felt at the White
House and at Republican headquarters
over the political conditions which have
suddenly developed within the past few
days Indeed, the situation appears 50
serious TO President Mckinley that he
has determined TO give his personal at
tention TO the details of his campaign
and has started in by sending emergency
messages to his newspaper and other
party adherents throughout the country.
admonishing them that there are breah-
ers ahead and calling upon them to re-
double efforts of argument and sutscrip-
ton to help him out in November.
A careful and unbiased analysis of The
conditions and phenomena of the day am
ply justifes Mr. Mckinley in his new
feeling of alarm and panic. 1t is now
evident that the South will be sol-dly
for Bryan: which means that the Repub-
licans will lose Delaware. Maryland,
West Virginia, and Kentucky. all OF
which went for Mckinley in 1896. Re
publican splits and anti-imperialism in
Delaware and anti-imperialism, anti
lection of Senator Wellington in Mary
land make both safe for the Democratic
ticket. The enthusiastic reception of Mr.
Bryan in West Virginia and resentment
in that Commonwealth for the coarse at
tempts of the trusts to prevent his
reaching the people, show how they viii
vote. Democratic reunion and harmony
an Kentucky, and vengeful memories of
The Republican assassination conspiracy
which eliminated in the brutal murder
OF the late Governor Goebel by the order
OF Republican leaders leave no douh, as
to the electoral vote of that State.
Tho successful accomplishment of a fu~
sion between the Democrats and Populists
IN Minnesota under the auspices of Gov
ernor Lind. the most popular man in the
State. puts Minnesota, to say the least,
midway between the doubtful and the
Bryan columns; while the GermanAmer-
ican movement liz the central Vest

trusts. marks Iadana as for Bryan to-
day. The sane continents and Influences

present campaign as theg were for the
sound money issue in 1886 are at work
sn Illinois, and. from present appearances,
viii cause there, as well as elsewhere in
tie region, the defeat of the Mckinley
and Roosevelt ticket
Thus the indications of the hour are
that Mr.. Bryan is practically sure of
election without the vote of New York or
any of its neighboring States. 1t is not
ct all bad situation from our viewpoint
What ii is from Mr.. McKinley's he is
demonstrating by his actions. He is a
shrewd politician. and he knows that. un-
less the tidal wave he is encountering

good to be contemplated without grief.

An Opportunity for Returned Mis-

The Treasury Department is awaiting

hope of getting from among them some
Chinese interpreters. Those now in the

is said that the Bureau places little con-

TO BUILD NEW FURNACES.
Plans of the American Steel and
Wire Company.

PITTSBURG, Sept. THE American
Steel and Wire Company will begin work
in November on three new furnaces on
Neville Island. adjoining the one which
is now nearing completion. The plans
have just been completed by Julian Ken
nedy, of Pittsburg. The furnaces will be
erected by the Ritter & Conley Manufac-
turing Company of Pittsburg, and will
cost in the neighborhood of $500 900 each,
making one of the most costly and COM
plete blast furnace plants in the country,
outside of those Of the Carnegie Company
and Jones G Laughlin. Limited
While the Illinois Steel Company has
more furnaces. they will not compare with
the new ones on Neville Island. 1t is ex-
pected that about December the concern
will begin the erection of the BssSemef

being prepared. While this department Is
being built, the oliver Works on the south

Even Temperature.

It is said that the temperature in
Queen Victoria's personal apartments is
kept throughout the year at fifty-eight
degrees. This is accomplished by means
of hot air pipes in winter. while in sum
mer the same pipes are used to convey
cold air.
In such a state of atmosphere as the
present this sounds very epticing. and
one would like 10 be Queen Victoria The
constant endeavor of many people is to
secure the same temperature summer
and winter. Occasionally their zeal is
so great that they actually heat their
rooms in January to degree that would
be uncomfortable in June
There is question. however, whether
such efforts to avoid the usual changes
of temperature are good for the human
system. IL is quite possible that the
body needs precisely the shifting from
heat to cold which is afforded by the
changing seasons. II is often observed
that people who spend the whole of ey-
cry summer in cool climate suffer more
than others during the few hot days OF
spring and fall, and conversely. those
who dodge the cold of winter lose the
power TO resist it when they encounter it,
1t must be remembered that the hui
man body was slowly evolved through
countless generations to suit the climate
of the earth; that individuals incapabls
of resisting severe heat or cold we're
gradually killed off. and that those who
survived bequeathed TO their descendants
systems adapted to changes OF temper
ture. 1t follows, therefore. that a con-
stitution thus evolved would have to ac-
custom itself. in turn, to a perfectly
even temperature, or 10 the changes of
air and general climatic conditions felt
in travelling. Those of US who are una
BILE to leave town in the summer may
console ourselves perhaps, with the idea
that those whose wealth renders them
Independent of natural conditions may
have to pay for the privilege 1t would
be monotonous. anyway, to live always
at a temperature of Gfty-eight degrees.

HEAVY INSURANCE LOSSES.
The Cost of War Risks in south
Africa.

NEW YORK. Sept Life insurance
companies have been heavy losers by the
South African campaign. The death lists
show that the per cent extra rate
charged policy holders exposed to the
perils OF military service was inadequate
to provide for the heavy mortality in
volved. and that the per cent added to
the premiums of new policies did not
cover the hazards encountered Officers,
as class. Jared worse than the men, the
offieial records showing approximately SEQ
actual deaths among $500 officers employ
ed Besides these. more than 100 went
home sick, and 50 others we're reported
missing or captured. Since the largest
policies were on the lives of officers, and
the records. UP to four weeks ago. showed
deaths in excess OF the provisions made.
the losses on that class OF business will
be enormous. Although American compa-
MES were interested in South African
risks, British companies will have TO pay
most OF the claims, on account of their
extensive army business.
The mortality among non-commissiored
officers and men equaled nearly four per
cent of the entire body engaged OF the
S.463 deaths. $500 men died OF disease, in
captivity. or from accident. This confirms
the theory that in war those succumbing
to disease greatly outnumber the mel
killed in action. About $4,000 have been
sent home invalids and the 2,76S reported
missing or captured will probably swell
the death lists to alarming proportions.
While the showing is suggestive and wih
be studied by actuares for years to come,
war risk calculations are modified by con-
siderations peculiar to each campaign, and
can seldom be attempted in advance OF ac-
tual hostilities. For this reason war risks
have to be readjusted for each campaign.
and much taken for granted in estimating
the hazards American comp6ries lad to
face the problem during the struggle with
Spain, and owing to the quick 2uccess OF
United States troops came out we'll ahead
on the venture. One has since iiberalized
its contracts SO as to cover the war hazard
able after date of issue. But most of the
companies dislike the risk on any terms
and decline to asstrre it, except oil tie
extra hazardous" basis.
When the British companies announced
their war-risk provisions at he begin
ming of the Transvaal difficulty they were
called unpatriotic and greedy. The charges
were objected to for a time, but when the
heavy losses were reported it was found
that the calcula tons were not out of the
way. Later returns showed that the RE
view (the insurance journal of London)
and other authorities who had investigated
the matter were correct in predicting
the heavy mortality afterward encoun-
tered, and that the enormous claims now
piling up would take more than the pre-
miums amounted to. When the actual
experience of the companies is finally
tabuiated the actuaries will be able to
judge with considerable accuracy what the
war-risk contingency in trying climates
really costs.
