THE ERECTION IN NEw YORK.

THE ELECTION IN NEW YORK.
 There are many elections to-day, but the chief interest Is felt in the election in New York city. To many the con- test there looks like the battle between Christian and Apollyon, and if Croker, the modern Apollyon, should happen to win many would feel that the Lord, for some inscrutable reason, had allowed him to triumph for a season. What is going to happen is much in the dark. The Low champions shout confidently that their victory is already secure. Croker quietly but firmly says that his man is going to be elected. And those who are doing the betting seem to think the chances are about even. In a few more hours the situation will be clear, It has been hot campaign, and one of the most remarkable features of it Is the preaching against Tammany which was done In many Protestant pulpits last Sunday.

------------------------- 4 B4PTIST COLLEGE E JJR UST.

An interesting thing has been done in Missouri, where the Baptists of the State have decided to federate all the colleges of that denomination in Mis- souri, with William Jewell at the head. The possibility of this institution be- coming co-educational was suggested during the animated debate which pre- ceded final action and created consid' erable alarm. The utilization is to begin four years hence, by which time all the colleges are expected to be out of debt. Stephens college is to be the head of the female colleges. In all the smaller institutions throughout the State only academic courses are to be taught Will liam Jewell will offer a complete col lege course, and all the influence of the Baptists of the State is to be thro wn toward that college, making it the cen ter and focus of the denominations ed ucational work along the highest lines. The debate on the subject of aff1liation developed the fact that unless some such action was taken, several small in- stitutions would die for lack of support
 Although this arrangement will be something like a trust it will doubtless be beneficial. Instead of the various colleges struggling precariously along, all will be under the best and most pro- gressive supervision of the church in Missouri. The decision was reached with practical unanimity, and it is be- lieved that new impetus will be given to the cause of education among the cided upon.

EGGS FOR BREAKFAST.
Five and a Half Million Imported

Five and Half Million Imported Every Day by Great Britain.
 Eggs of many kinds are sold in any large city. There are new-laid eggs, are those which are merely eggs-that and nothing more. Unfortunately, most of these breakfast necessaries come from abroad. On one occasion MT. Gladstone, addressing his tenants, called attention to the huge importta- tion of poultry, and remarked that it could be reared in this country, and If I may say so, from eggs" he con- cluded. From some eggs it is, however impossible to hatch chickens. MT. J. "
 R. Swan points out that the number of l imported eggs retained for home con- sumption in the United Kingdom has risen from four in 1854 to forty nine in 1900 per head of population During 1900 the imports of foreign eggs into this country exceeded 5500,000 eve ry day during the year (G15,359 daily), and if the home supply be added-esti- mated at 2,100,000,000 annually-the daily consumption of the United King dom exceeds 11,300,000 eggs And 1t will be found that forty-nine per cent. of the eggs handled in the United King dom are imported, and fully ninety-five per cent of the eggs consumed in the large towns of England are of foreign origin, and fifty per cent. of ali eggs available are from three to seven months old before they reach the tables of the average British consumer
 The development of the trade in for eign eggs during recent years, this cor respondent adds, is truly remarkable; and the ease and rapidity with which a trade can be developed and flourish, under the most adverse conditions. may be inferred from the fact that the export of eggs from Russia has in- creased from ten million in 1870 to 1,- 7S0, ,000,00 in 1900. The export from Denmark has risen from twenty-three millions in 1880 to two hundred and ninety-two millions in 1900, and the i'm port of eggs into the United Kingdom has increased from one hundred million in 1855 to one billion in 1885, and 2,025,- 100000 in 300.
 Year by year the trade in eggs ex- pands, and is still likely to keep on in creasing, as there appears no limit, either to the supply or the demand. The trade in Europe alone approaches one hundred million pounds annually As at least five-slxths of European eggs are of necessity laid between February and September, inclusive leaving only one sixth to meet the re-
 l..b faint idea of the dubious quality and unavoidable waste associated with milliard imported eggs from three to seven months old may be inferred from the imports of more than that number into the United Kingdom during the past season.-London Telegraph.

caution on the part of all chauffeurs,
 warning them against carelessness or
 neglect on account of long immunity
 from accident. The article says:
 While there have been number of
 serious accidents, some terminating fa-
 tally, in the brief history of the auto
 mobile in America, the sad affair of
 Saturday, by which MT Benedict lost
 his life and his companion, MT. Kane,
 was seriously injured, is, we believe,
 the first of it's kind. Similar accidents
 have been by no means unknown abroad; in fact, our Berlin letter this week tells of one in which a German officer was killed From the meager and contradictory accounts thus far at
 hand, 1t is impossible to determine the exact cause of the acident of Saturday and it is quite possible that 1t may nev- CT be known. The vehicle was of a standard make, and well equipped with brakes and other safety appliances for its certain and instant control, and the driver was In no way novice, but, while not the equal of a professional chauffeur, fairly expert. The attendant circumstances of the case give, how SfCi, d ClSW lO lllS u uC SNuoC VI SA'S disaster. The party were In a hurry to reach their destination and rejoin their friends; a sudden shower of rain urged them to further shorten their journey, and, though on 8 steep hill, the speed was not slackened to the point which cautioned demanded. The dangers of a steep and somewhat crook" ed incline were increased by the wet and slippery condition of the roadbed, and in some way the driver lost control of the machine; it left the road and turned over on striking the bank. There is no evidence of a failure of brakes or levers, and it is probably that nothing in the way of breakdown occurred The present Is the day of high speeds; racing just at this time has reached point previously unknown In this coun- try, and the competition for records on road and track is very keen between the great French driver and his Ameri- can rivals The speed fever is by no means confined to the public contests, but has, let us hope. temporarily, af- feoted even those who nominaly ride solely for pleasure. The ambition of every motorist is to own fast ma- CHllle ana once oWHlHS It, lo eHJoy tHS exhilaration of speeding 1t on all occa- sions. The dangers of such a course are apparent; apart from the risk to out siders-no small matter in itself-al- most every road at the present time has, at short intervals, bad places which demand cautious running and a reduction of speed. A great many of the amateurs who are driving their own vehicles, though fairly expert in the care and management of the mechan- ism at home and on the road have not

THE VOYAGE OF THE METEOR.

The famous voyage of the Oregon isn't matched by the voyage of the Me teor, but the voyage of the Meteor will do to talk about in time of peace. Cap tain John F. Ahlstrom is the bold and efficient sailor man who has just taken the steamer Meteor from Toledo, Ohio to Seattle, Washington. The ship which was built for lake trade was sold to a firm on the Pacific coast, and to Captain Ahlstrom was given the task of delivering it to the new owners. The lake captain saved about $500 for his employers by taking the ship through the Straits of Magellan without the as- sistance of a pilot. Captain Ahlstrom has ever succeeded in navigating those waters unassisted. He had perfect con- fidence in his ability to use the charts. The Meteor left Toledo May [. The journey up the coast from the straits was without incident, the land being seldom sighted in the entire journey. Captain Ahlstrom returned from Seat tie to Cleveland by train. He is now known as the first man to take steam CT from the fresh-water lakes to the Pacific coast; the first lake captain to navigate the Straits of Magellan with out a pilot and the first one to make so long a journey without the assistance of a tug.
 Good for Captain Ahlstrom. His name has foreign sound, but he is doubtless a good American citizen.

UNITED STATES COAL IN FRANCE


 | There has, we believe, been some | United States coal sent to Newcastle but 1t is not appreciated there as it is in France. During the first six months of the current year the amount of Eng fish coal received at Marseilles was 3S9, 1903 tons: the amount of American coal was 97,622 tons. In the corre- spending six months of 1900. the re- ceipts of English coal were 457, 752 tons, and of United States coal 7,739 tons. From these figures it will be seen that there has been a decline In the re- ceipts os English coal amounting to 63, ,449 tons, while there has been an in crease in the receipts of United States coal amounting to S9S73 tons. Tie total receipts for the year 1900 were S56, ,03S tons from Great Britain and ,491 tons from our own country. Consul Skinner figures that, with the steadily increasing shipments, the total receipts Of United States coal at Mar seilles during the current year should exceed 100000 tons, and this, too, in the rates from Cardiff. He thinks "the on- ly disquieting element in this com- merce is the necessity of employing foreign shipping for the transportation of our product"
 It is cheering that United States coal is in demand in France. but it is not cheering that the price of it is so high in the United States
