TWO IRnMCoNCrLABLES.


 Ex-President Kruger tells his faithful followers to keep on fighting and tells them that 'alleviation will be sent when needed" Another irreconcilable has been heard from. He is Miguel Malavar, who has been recognized as the successor of Aguinaldo by the Fili- pino junta at Hong Kong. He has is sued proclamation giving assurances of the continuation of an active cam paign and expressing hope of it's suc- cessful issue.
 Both Kruger and Malavar may be very noble men and willing that all their friends and relatives should die in the last ditch for a great cause, but there is danger that capricious world will get tired of them and look on them as fools rather than heroes. There is time to encourage fighting, and time to give other advice. Both Kruger and Malavar may possibly have too much prejudice to be really wise leaders now.

nom aUSTRT4N'S PLAN.

The bold Andree, who went after the north pole in a balloon, has not return ed. and it is not now expected that he will return. If Professor Anschuitz- Kaempfe, an Austrian scientist who wants to reach the pole. reaches it and comes back he will be famous enough. His plan is almost if not quite as dar- ing as Andree's. He has built sub marine boat with which he confidently expects to overcome all difficulties and sail right up to the pole, It sounds like a tale of Jules Verne's fantastic works. but the Austrian is assured that it is practicable, His boat is to have radius of action of 2,500 miles and be able to dive 150 feet. It will be of 800 tons displacement and strong enough to withstand a pressure of 60,000 pounds to the square yard A benzine motor will supply the power for surface travel and for charging the electric storage battery that will propel the craft be- heath the sea. It Is announced that as soon as the craft is completed she will he lowed to the edge of the ice pack by an Austrian man. f-war. Then she will dive under the barrier. The the ory is that light will show when there is an opening in the ice. There are many of these openings, and the fre- ouency with which explorers encounter them led to the theory of the open polar sea, once generally accepted, but now abandoned. It is estimated that the boat will be able to come to the surface at intervals of ten or twenty minutes as a rule.
 It is said that this plan is respectful ly considered by those who know some thing about Arctic exploration. Among those who approve it is Nansen.

THE BIC STORLS.

While the department stores have been expanding quite as rapidly as the United States the opposition to them has been diminishing. They meet a long-felt want and they meet it so well that while small dealers are sometimes hurt by them the great public Is bene- fited An interesting illustration of the tendency of things is given in Chicago, where the retail merchants have given up the idea of abolishing the depart ment stores, and some thirty of them who handle different lines of goods are considering a plan to combine their es- tablishments In one great store with a capital of $500,OO0 The chief organ izer of the new project is a man who headed the anti-department store movement in Chicago a few years ago. He says: People will trade at de- partment stores. The wives of dealers who had signed pledges not to patron- ize the big establishments persisted in doing so when they saw bargain sales advertised"

BENEFICENT ALCOHOL.

pr. Charles l.. Dana says something in the Medical Record about alcohol which will not be approved by the ad- vocates of total abstinence and also by some others. pr. Dana is not prepared to say that alcohol is absolutely and al- ways a pernicious agent, or has not been of use in promoting human prog ress. On the contrary, he feels inclin- ed to believe that on the whole it has produced more benefcent results than it has done injury, flor 1t must be re- membered that its most serious effects are seen in that class whom we call unstable and degenerate-a class from which not much good to the human race could be expected anyway, and which, if it were not injured gratifying it's in- stil cts for stimulants, would likely de- ve!ou pathological symptoms in some other way"
 There can be no doubt that alcohol has been an efficient destroyer, but it has destroyed many who were better worth saving than Dr. Dana seems to think. Alcohol may be very beneficent, but if 1t is much of its benefcence is blessing which is very thoroughly dis gulSed.
