as instructor in natural history, and
one year later he was made professor
OF zoology. In 1891 he was elected
dean of the college of letters and
science. Dr. Birge is not only scien-

wise an authority of international
note in his line. After his graduation
in 1873 from Williams college he spent
two years in Harvard and received
from that university his degree of doe
tor of philosophy. Later ne went
abroad for course in histology at the
University of Leipsio. In 1857 lie was

for transportation the house is con-
tanned in a number of comparatively
small packing cases, fitted with iron
handles, so that where railroads do
not run and it is not possible to use
animals they may be carried by hand.

his stay in the orient. The members

to come under the provision of the
statutes already in force against
| the carrying of concealed weapons.
1t is a question if such a law
would not be unconstitutional.
Tae constitution of the United
States provides that "the right of
the people to keep and bear arms
shall not be infringed." Now if
women are people, and if hat pins
arms, or dangerous weapons, the
right of the ladies to keep and
wear them cannot be infringed, so
long as they wear them in plain
sight. The states have police
powers to prohibit the carrying of
concealed weapons. While man
can be fined or imprisonel for car
rying pistol in his hip pocket or
a bowie knife in his boot or down
his neck, he could not be pun
ished for carrying them in plain
sight in belt or in his hand. If
a hat pin is stuck through the hat
SO that both ends project, it is not
a concealed weapon, and the wear
ing of it cannot be prohibited.
Nor can the size be regulated.
The law has nothing to say about
the size of gun a man may carry
so long as he carries it in plain
sight, and much less would it have
anything to say about the size of
the hat pin: Let the ladies' wear
the hat pins, say we. The possef-
sion Of such a weapon is a notice
to the loafer or assaulter to keep
hands off. It is alleged that the
possession of such a weapon is a
provocation to a woman to mix in
personal difficulties, but such q
case is not likely to occur once in
dozen years. AS a rule, woman
will fight only when driven into a
corner or in defense of one she
loves--and in such case, it is no
more than right that she should
have an effective weapon within
easy reach.

Local Democrats who attended
the meeting of the national Demo
cratic at Washington last week
have reported since their return
that Bryan will not make a per-
sonal campaign this year, as he
did in 1900, but will confne his
speechmaking to delegations
which may visit him at his home
at Lincoln Neb.
It is said that members of the
national committee who gave out
the information declared that
BryaD's views on all the ques-
tons that will obtain in the cam
paign are now we'll known, and
that having these questions in the
East and West for several months,
the necessity for his appearance
as q speaker in the campaign will
not OK ist.
Another reason which is under
stood to have considerable wei ght
with Bryan's advisers is that there
is popular prejudice against
candidate for the Presidency,
making personal canvass of the
country, and while there seemed
to be necessity for such a course
four years ago, that necessity will
not exist in the present campaign,
and will therefore pass the time
between his nomination and the
election in practical retirement at
his home.-Chicago Inter Ocean.

Oranges in WOrthington.

1t is very seldom that oranges are
seen growing in Minnesota, but such
is the case in Worthington.
Mrs. A. Bloom has two trees in her
home. One of them has ten or fifteen
oranges on of an ordinary size. Two
or three of the oranges are nearly ripe.
The other tree is full of blossoms.
The tree with the fruit sits in the win
dow and attracts the attention of peo-
pie passing, who think the oranges
are artificial or the fruit stuck on the
tree, but our informant says they are
genuine growing oranges and the
trees very thrifty.
The first tree was raised from seed
but bore no fruit, an orange graft was
then sent for and set with the above
results.
