WORDS BORN IN THE WAR.
Some That Were Made Familiar bS the National Struggles of
 Europe.

It will be interesting to note what marks the present war will leave ou our manners, customs and language A big war has results of this kind, says the London News. The wars with Ma poleon gave us "Wellingtons," 'Bluch- ers," and probably the long military cloak. The Russian war supplied us with 8 new name for girls, Alma" brOke down the military monopoly of . fringed upper lip, and made the long familiar sight of his polished mshog. any obsolete for the Englishman who reached the stage of his dinner when dessert is laid and the wine goes round. That war made mustaches common and coasters" curiosity. The great Franco-Prussian campaign had com paratively little social influence on us probably because we were not actual belligerents. We learned to take inter est in maneuvers, word which soon superseded the old ''sham fights" AS yet the present war has influenced more our language than our customs Trekking, outspanning, veldt, lAager are slipping into use. Khaki has be- come a familiar color, and 'coloniaP' uniform familiar in our streets We may each note for ourselves these in-- direct, unobtrusive, but probably lastE ing influences of the war.

THE HUMAN MACHINE.
Some Interesting Statistics as to the Amount of Work e Mans
 Does.

The human body is the most econom- ical machine in the world. It takes in about Ia pounds of food day in the shape of water, oxygen and solids.
 This food gives man his power of do- ing work. It gives the strength for bodily, muscular and mental work, says the New York World.
 The heart does 120 foot tons of work in 24 hours. If the full work of the heart for that period could be gath cred into one big lift it would raise 120 tons weight one foot high. The muscles of breathing do 21 foot tons work per day.
 The work of the whole body in it's actions for 24 hours amounts to about 3,400 foot tons.
 This enormous working power is de- yeloped from food in 24 hours. Over 3,NO foot tons go to produce heat, which is mode of motion and is neces- sary for every vital process. The re- mainder represents mans actual muscular and mental work.
 It must be remembered that 5000 foot tons about represent the force which would raise a man of average weight eight and one-half miles height. Man has never succeeded in making any engine that could compare with the en- gineer's own body in developing rela- lively large amount of energy on a very small consumption of fuel or food.

HE WAS AMBIDExTRoUs.
An Operator Held Revolver In 0aa > Hand and TelegraDhsd with
 the Other.

Six tramps entered the telegraph oS2 flee of the Southern railway at what i'd known as Alexandria and Fredericks- burg crossing about three miles west ot Alexandria, shortly before ten o'clock one night recently, says the Washing ton Post, and threatened to kill the telegraph operator, James Cox, unless he agreed to flag the Chesapeake & Ohio train, which leaves Alexandri5 is through express, one of the fastest on the road, and the operator refused to comply with the tramps' demands. Two of them had come into the oficS to make the demand, and when it was refused they set upon Cox and the other four entered the office to assist in the attack upon the operator.
 When the tramps sprang upon Cox he drew a revolver and razor from ths drawer and held them at bay. At the sight of the weapons all drew back and four of the six fled from the office and disappeared in the darkness. The others tried to follow suit, but Cox eov- cred them with his revolver, made  them throw up their hands, and forced them into a corner. Covering the hemmed in men with the pistol held in his left hand, Cox used his right to work his key, and telegraphed to the railroad office at Alexandria, describ- ing the situation out in the little of6ees miles away from help.
 The instant the message was res ceived at Alexandria the police were ir- formed and an engine was made ready. In few minutes it started for the A. & F. crossing with trainmaster and of fcers on board. When they arrived st the telegraph office they found Opera tor Cox, with both of his captives penned in corner, still covered with his pistol and thoroughly cowed. The prisoners were placed aboard the en- zine and taken to Alexandria and locked up. The country around the telegraph office was searched by the officers, but no trace of the other tFamps could be found.

 All railroads have been asked to make d reduced rate for this con vention and if no such rate is in force when delegates leave for the convention they should take re. ceipts for money paid and the mat ter can probably be arranged at Phoenix for returning free.

Catch the Flood Waters.

Primitive they may have been but effective certainly, were the irriga- tion methods pfacticed by the pre- historic races in our southwest when modern civilization was en- veloped in savagery. The ruins seen today in Arizona and New Mexico of farming community of centuries ago are 8 wonder to the modern irrigation engineer. It re- mains for the generations of today to make productive the millions of gallons of water that every minute of the day run uselessly to the sea.
 Let tho government build great reservoirs and turn this water into gold.

A Mammoth Document.

The most voluminous bill ever be- fore congress is undoubtedly that pro- viding civil government for the ter- ritory of Alaska. As filed in the state department. it makes 2s4 pages of printed parchment. For convenience in handling the sheets were not fast ened together in form, as is the cus- tom. but were divided into six parts and each of the six parts was placed in a thin wooden box. Five of these coverings were each fastened with the trar''ional red tape, while the sixth, which contained the concluding p~ ges of the bill. to which the president affixes his signature, was provided with a sliding top so that it's cors' A.ntg could be easily removed.

 ceed in spite of their dishonesty, but honesty in business is as wise in policy as it IS right in principle.
 Business should be drguifed and glorified as truly as distlnctively religious work; mGnyamerchant or manufacturer IS moro truly Q phil snthropist when he uses his mill- ions in business than when he gives them in charity. ''The golden rule also has it's place in politics. A brilliant Senator described the golden rule and the Ten Com mandments ill their relation to politics as an 'iridescent drea m. But he was mistaken. Thatsaying relegatad him to private lifo. The Ten Commandments and the gold en rule must be in politics or the politics Of the country will be in a sad way. Men have no right to sheer at politics. What dc we moan by polltics7 Do we mean the science government? Do we not mean ethics as related to Govern ment, state, or nations No relig- ious man can be consistently relig- ious and be indifferent to the poli- tics of his country. The man who is so indifferent IS unworthy ofthe dignity of American citizenship
 "The golden rule is illustrated by the Administration of this country taday. Our honored President and our distinguished Secretary of State are making immortal history.
 They are directing the diplomacy of the world. They are leading the movement to save China from dis rnption and possibly from national extinction. No President since the founding of the Govern mont has had so many perplexing international problems as tho President of today. When the passions of the hour have sabsided he will by common consent take  his place beside Washington and Lincoln. Bitter as has been the criticism of the President in certain quarters, it is not one tithe as bitter as was the criticism of both Wash ington and Lincoln, whom now we all glorlfy.
 "One of the last attacks is that made by the women with their prayer chain. Nothing can surpass the stiffness of this proposed end loss prayer chain except it be it's bIasphemy. These women expect to lasso the Almighty if they can have their chain long enough and strong enough. The golden rule has little place in the proposition of these zealoUs but unwise women.

 They degrade prayer, dishonor womenhood, and misrepresent Christianity"

 Matters.

The most general introduction of irrigation practices in eastern hu- mid regions is a good sign for the arid west, for, with a mora general familiarity with the subject, the bet ter it is for that section entirly de- pendent upon it when it comes to a question of needed Legislation. In Louisiana the possibilities of irrigation are great, and for an ex- tremely humid State 1t has already a comparativly large area under water systems. amounting to some thing over 100000 acres while the annual rainfall of the State is doub- le the average, for the whole coun- try, being in the neighborhood of 60 inches yet Louisiana is subject to the most severe drOuths. especial ly in the spring-time when the crops need moisture. The Missippi fur- nishes an unlimited water source for much of the State, and it's wa ters hold in suspension and solu- ton much matter of q fertilizing nature.
 New Jersey is another S'" e which furnishes some excellent "" icct lesson> on artificial watering and Tn Wisconsin. on land receiV- ing its full share nf the raIntail oi the humid belt, irrigation of small crops has been shown to pr"duce remarkable returns over anu above cost of pruucdllun aud Watering. The more this sort developments affects the East. the less novel will be the subject and the less opposi- tor will be put forward by the in- telligent people of that section to a policy of general western reclama- tion.

Time to Awake.

The benefit of a comprehensive system of government irrigation works to the arid West can hardly be underestimated, and it is high time the West was waking up to the situation and doing it's share towards getting Congress to take action. Thus far the work has all been done by Eastern business men, who figure that such improvements will do more than anything else towards providing homes for the people in the West and will event. ually provide the Eastern manu- facturer and business man with a larger market. What it means to the Eastern business man. It means in even a larger proportion to the Western business man, and it is time they were awakening to the fact.-Denver Stockman.
 The building of strong reservoirs and the reclamation and settlement of Arid America would rapidly and enormously enlarge the demand for everything the West buys from the eastern merchant and manu- facturer.

If For River and Harbor,
 Why Not For Irrigation?

The opponents of federal irriga- tion admit that it is quite proper for the government to appropriate money for the construction of ex- pensive ripraps and levees for floods to destroy from time to time in addition to causing vast loss to lite and private property i; yet that it is wholly wrong to build reservoirs 10 restrain these floods and thus get at the root of the evil, because the water stored in these reservoirs would be used to irrigate parched fields, and thus we would be adding too much to our productiv capacity. Fortunately the adherents to this narrow prop osition are not numerous and the theory is not growing in populari- ty.-Guy E. Mitchell.

No insult Intended.

Philadelphia Record: While his Aueal gak being served on Saturday night to West Walnut street exquisite, whom the excessive expenditures of Christ mas week had reduced to a cheap res- saurant, he showed displeasnre with the manner in which things were served. The constant rattle of dishes on the hard tables and the believing of the walters as they announced their orders to the cooks at the end of the room made him nervous. When the busy waiter deposited his order before him the young man began fusillade of reproach on the substantial but homely viands. "Do you call that a veal cut Iet?" he demanded of the waiter ''Why, such a outlet as that is an in. suit to every self-respecting calf in Bucks county" The waiter hung his head for moment, but on recovering himself, said, in tone of quiet apoi- sgy: q really didn't intend 70 insult Lou. sir"
