 Celebrated Artist-The Bill Will Con-
 tain a Representation of q Buffalo
 Bull on the Prairie Paving for Food.
 New York, Oct 2.-A special to the Tribune from Washington says: Uncle Sam will issue in the next few days q new $10 greenback, which will be Il novel Buffalo Bill" The design for the new treasury note was drawn by a celebrated artist and student of dni- mai nature, who is connected with the national Smithsonian institute.

DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE.

Washington, Oct 2.-A report on the work of the division of agrostology of the department of agriculture since it's organization in 1895 has been sub mitted to Secretary Wilson by Profes- lsor F. Lamson Scribner, the govern ment agrostologist The report says that of the unoccupied public lands about 365, 100000 acres are now re- garded as fit only for grazing purposes, and in addition there are 124, 100000 acres of forest land, the greater DOT ton of which is also used for grazing. As a result of the field work already done this department has been enabled to recommend to farmers and stock men throughout the country the forage crops adapted to ther conditions and special requirements and to carry on experiments with introduced forage plants likely to prove valuable in any particular region. Within the United States are grown over LOGO species of grasses and perhaps 100 or more other plants of sufficient forage value to jus tify their investigation and cultivation. Because they are native. says the re- port, they have been too often not only neglected but abused, and in some cases partially exterminated.

EDUCATIONAL F oNORS.
The Race for Positions of Board of
 Education Goes Merrily On.

There is q strong race on for places or the board of education on the dem- ocratic ticket and the chances are that there will be a lively time at the con vention tonight. It seems to be gen. erally believed that Isadore Chase will be one of the men selected but judg- ing by what is heard on the streets the delegates have not yet come to terms on the others. John J. Mcdonald, Dr Russell and Timothy F. Carmody are talked of and it is said that Jeremiah Devine will go into the convention with the fourth ward solid for him. The names of Dr Donahue, Dr Dwyer, Attorneys Seery, Phelan and others are mentioned, and for all anyone can tell there may be half dozen more whose names have not been mentioned E. J. Finn was one of the first men talked of for q place on the ticket but he positively refuses to allow the use of his name for the office. It was said this afternoon that many of the dele gates would like to SC Dr Mcdonald nominated for the board of education. but no one seemed to know whether he would care to accept it or not It is certain that there is no lack of good material for the positions, so that there is no danger that there will be any trouble over getting competent men to enter the race

SERIES OF MISHAPS.
But Constable Booth Finally Over
 came All Difficulties.

came All Difficulties.
 Constable George 0. Booth went a-gunning for quail yesterday and met with series of mishaps that would have made any other gunner but q constable lose his temper. He was about three miles on the road when his wagon lost a wheel. Having ad- justed the mishap he pushed ahead four miles more and then the wheel which had not been lost broke down. He decided he could go no further and had made up his mind that he could not get his pastors out that night when farmer bound citywards came along. The broken wagon was hitched to the farmers and the constable taking q perch on q milk can turned his face homewards. Near the scene where he had lost a wheel a load of hay was upset. What hay could have been doing on the public road at this time of year, unless to bar his way to get at his pastors. the constable could not surmise. In half an hour the farmer and the constable had forced way through the load of hay. with the as- sistance of their horses appetites. It was now so dark that the constable could not recognize one of his own pasters Nevertheless. they were get ting along merrily and would have cot home for supper had they not run pto wagon with bull dog on board. ghe bull dog was thrown out and took sat isfaction out of the constable's game basket and held him on the ground until the accident had been adjusted. The homeward march was then re- sumed and when the constable arrived at his gate he thanked his stars that he had returned sound i'll limb

From no one feature of the face can
the disposition be more accurately read
than from the lips. and especially the
upper lip; the lower one is less pro-
phetie. A woman with a short, sharply
curved upper lip is nearly always OF a
happy, lovable disposition. A man with
a short but straight upper lip is apt
to be of low order of intellect and
coarse in his tastes The person with
a long, straight upper lip is the one
to beware of. He has a will like
