LAST OF THE STERLING.
Twenty Car Loads of Material Shipped to
the western wheels Works Today.

The last Saturday of the century
marked the departure of the last yes
tige of the Sterling bicycle plant from
this city, as this morning twenty car
loads of material and wheels were
shipped from the factory to the Western
Wheel works in Chicago.
The work of dismantling and re-
moving the plant has been in the
hands of H. H. Kramer, of the Western
Wheel works, and he has been busy for
several months in getting the factory
ready for the acceptance of Mr.. Jeffery,
who formally took charge of it some
days ago.
With the removal of the last property
of the American Bicycle company
from the city Kenosha loses her right
to the name of Bicycle town.. For
many years our people have tied their
faith to the wheels manufactured in
their own town, but in the future they
will be forced to get the wheels made
where the trust decides that they shall
be made.
People will bid last adieu to the
Sterling with considerable regret.
While the factory was run as an indie
pendent plant it was money maker
and it brought our city to the notice of
the entire bicycle world.

The Coming City.

From "The Coming City," Dowie
in regard to Zion and the lace industry.
Lace factories have been started in
Philadelphia, Woonsocket, Pawtucket,
and a few other eastern cities. The
machines used in America in the max
ing of lace are antiquated. New ma
chimes of modern pattern will be set up
in Zion. In six months five hundred
trained American workmen will oper-
ate the new machines. Six hundred
acres of land have been secured for the
plant. It is expected that 10000 people
will secure support through the indus
tries of Zion. The United States i'm
ports annually $18,0OO,OO0 worth of
lace, and Nottingham sends one-third
of her output to this country. A vari-
alton of the width of piece of tissue
paper between the needles makes the
difference between one kind of net and
another. Zion stock is offered for sale
at 800 per share with interest guaran-
teed and paid semi-annua1ly- year
six per cent; second year, seven per
cent, and seventh year, twelve per
cent.
To us it seems strange and even. wild
that any class of men, especially
American workmen, should be shy of
skill wherever it may come from, and
should protest against the incoming of
men and women who are capable of
producing such excellent fabrics as will
command the markets of the world.

west Point Hazing.

The prosecution of the Booz case
brings to the surface considerable evi-
dence relative to hazing at West
Point that inclines one to wonder
what our great military academy is
for. It is naturally the general sup
position that young men are sent to
the academy at West Point to be fitted
for army life and work. They are
sent there to be trained in the science
and the art of war, toNbe developed
physically and to become Injured to
physical hardship. The course OF
work, as mapped out by the authori-
ties, is supposed to cover all this.
Then what has the hazing to do with
the case?
According to the testimony of the
cadets who have appeared in the Booz
case, hazing seems to be course that
the cadets themselves have introduced
into the work, and which is carried on
very diligently by them alone. 1t
would seem by the testimony of young
Macarthur, to be for the purpose of
taking the conceit out of the victims
and the rough edges off of them. The
treatment is certainly quite drastic
enough to take the conceit out of the
ordinary man. AS to the rough edges,
though, there might be reason to
doubt if the process took off as many
rough edges as it puts on. It appar-
emily took the rough edges off of
young Booz very effectua11y, and it is
readily acknowledged that when
young man drops into a peaceful
swoon after his course in hazing, the
roughness has gone at least Temporal
ri,Y. But on the whole it seems quite
unlikely that the hazing process has
tendency to make those who survive it
any the less rough. When you put
nice, we'll shaped, complete vitrifed
brick, moulded and hardened by the
most ski11fu1 processes, in "rattler"
and shake it for ten or fifteen minutes,
the brick, though it may have had it's
toughness proved, is not as good as
when it went in. It's good deal so
with the cadet at West Point. He may
have taken the best care of himself,
scientific training may have developed
his physique sp1endid1y, but he is none
he better for the torture and rough
1,uA1snor of 4ho h a zir1r
But nobody ever tried to give a seri-
Gus reason in support of it. The up
shotsof the whole matter is that the
custom is barbarous and brutal one
and should not be tolerated in our
schools or military or naval acade-
mics. It is destructive in it's nature
and sometimes fatal. It does not
make a man any more of man and
develops the brutal rather than the
manly side of nature.

Sodium Salvador.

What causes the heart to beat? Not
the blood, not nerve force, according
to certain professors of the Chicago
University, but chloride of sodium,
that is, common salt. DR.. Loeb and
his colleagues have demonstrated this
simple fact by numerous experiments
on the hearts of turtles. A strip of
flesh taken from one of the ventricles
of che heart of turtle. twas made to
throb rythmica11y and perfectly by be-
ing placed in solution of salt and
potassium. Sodium chloride in small
quantities, will prevent hemorrhage,
stimulate the action of an enfeeb1ed
heart, preserve the purity of the blood
and promote the health of any one who
properly uses it. Perhaps common
salt is the arbor-vitae. Perhaps the
need of it in animal life is the reason
why watchful mother nature has dis
rtributed salt in immense reservoirs
both in the sea and in the rock.
Americans are quite shy of salt and do
mot know it's value.

About Salt.

Salt holds prominent place in his
tory and ethno1ogy. From time i'm
memorial the human family, with but
few exceptions, has regarded it with
peculiar interest. Homer called it
divine.
Save sunshine, air and water, moth
ing is more generally distributed or
more abundant than salt. It is not
limited to one geologic formation, but
is found in all groups except the prim-
airy rocks. Ask the Si1urian age, or
the Carboniferous, or the Triasic, or
the Lias, or the Tertiary, or even the
Permian, and each will surrender in
valuable treasures of salt. One geolo-
gic age was almost entirely of this
mineral. The ancient sea impreg-
mated the globe with the preservative
element.
Salt obtains in the ocean today,
forming nearly three per cent in
weight of it's entire mass. "The en-
tire ocean, if dried up, would yield
4,41o, 800 cubic miles of salt, or four
teen and one-ha1f times the bulk Of
the entire continent of Europe above
high water mark.
Salt deposits in the United States,
except at Salt Lake and the Salt des-
ert, are comparatively unimportant,
yet salt works are doing large bust
ness in Michigan, New York, Utah.
Kansas and other states. But the an
nual salt yield of Portugal is 100000
tons; that of Spain 100000 tons; Italy
los, 900 tons; France, 100000 and Aus
tria, $4,000 tons. The salt mines Of
Cheshire in England are very rich
The vast salt mines of Northern Indis
are in working order at the presen
time and have been worked since be
fore the time of Alexander. The i'm
nense salt mines of Cracow have beer
worked for more than six hundred
years; the mass in those mines is fv
hundred miles long, twenty mile
broad, and twelve hundred feet thick
From 800 to 1000 people are employed
many of them living underground in
village where streets and houses ar
constructed of salt. The mineral ha
been scooped out of the mass in such
way as to form vast chambers an
many miles Of galleries that are SUP
ported by massive columns.
Nations have fought for the posses
sion of salt stream. In Abyssini
salt made in the form of cakes ha
been used for money. Salt is an esser
tial element in all animal life. 7
those who live principally on vege
; table diet an addition of sodium ch1o1
ide is vitality necessary. According
recent discoveries and experiment
made by chemists, salt in solution wi
! give energy to an enfeebled heart; it
a specific for consumption; it wi
afford long and perfect relief, if not con
t plete1y cure, when externally applied
to patients suffering with eczema

In recent speech w. ]. Bryan said
something about principles living, to
the effect that, though he has been
again defeated at general election,
the policy he represents will continue
to propagate. 1t will not be readily
recalled that Mr.. Bryan made his last
campaign on principle, unless it was
the principle of opposition or resist
,ance. If that is what he has reference
to when he talks of his ''princip1e"
Living and his policy continuing to
propagate, he is right in part and
wrong in part. He is right in the
sense that the principle of resistance
in the political as we'll as the physical
world is an eternal one, and he is
wrong in the sense that the principle
is not his, that it is nothing of which
ne is the distinguished advocate or
creator Or discover.
1t will be remembered that ali the SO
called principles of Mr.. Bryan in the
recent campaign were uniformly des-
1gnated by the term "anti." His only
principle was antagonism, opposition
and resistance.
At another stage in his recent speech
Mr.. BRYAN states that whether or not
he shall ever again be candidate fol
the Presidency is entirely dependent
on circumstances. This is quite an &C
acknowledgement from Mr.. Bryan, the
man who practically nominated him
self and wrote the platform he was t.
stand on in the last election. If h
pretended to have in mind any particu
lar and peculiar principle when h
spoke, as quoted in the above para
graph, it becomes difficult to under
stand how the dictator of the las
Democratic national campaign, backe'
by a continually waxing policy, shoul
become the powerless victim of circum
stances in another four years.
The fact of the matter seems to
that the quondam leader and dictate
of the Democratic party has been shor
of his locks. He talks wildly in val
attempt to make it appear that he

one time followers that he is still {

 Review: Sunday night at Bisbee F. Acano shot and probably fatally wounded women named Angela Martinez. Federico went to the home of Angela and after having some words with her shot the woman through the left breast, just above the nipple, the bullet going clear tnrOuRn ner OOdy, coming out through the shoulder blade. After firing the shot Acano broke out of the house and ran down the steps in front of the Catholic church and was last seen going down the railroad track The Review says that the officers were at once notified and started ID pursuit. and he was followed as far as Don Luis, where he tried to obtain lodging which was denied him. Acano then left going in the direction of Naco, but had crossed the line before the officers could oyertake him. The Mex ican authorities at Naco were given d description of the would-b be murderer and wlll arrest him should he show up on that side of the line. The condi-
