In all the present agitation about
pure food. it is a comfort to the coffee
tirinker to be told that he Is getting a
very satisfactory article. At the De-
partment of Agriculture some thorough
tests have been recently made to deter
mine the extent and nature of coffee
authorizations The results are entirely
reassuring TO eoffee-lovers. The expert
finds that while very little pure Java
or Mocha berries find their way into the
American market, almost if not quite
as good favored beans are had from
other tropical places, Porto Rico and
Hawaii being mentioned as furnishing
good coffee. The adulterants. when
used, are for the most part harmless.
The chemist who has been looking into
the coffee question, Professor Wiley.
gives some advice as to the use of this
beverage. He says that the use of cot
fee in moderation should not do any
injury to adults, and then he mentions
IN detail what moderation means. This
is a cupful--only half of 1t coffee. the.
rest hot milR--at breakfast. none Mt
noon, and small cup of black coffee
after dinner. On some systems, I'M

and such persons. of course. should not
drink 1t. The average grown person in
normal health may use it moderately
without harm.

Some of the most remarkable of re-
cent scientific discoveries are the
S-rays, the discovery of the microbe of
distemper in dogs, and the discovery Of
krypton and xenon, rare gases of the
atmosphere. The S-rays are so-called
from Professor Sagnac Of Paris, who
in experimenting with the X-rays
found certain groups Of rays Of total
~ different series and with different
manifestations, while to Professor
Copeland belongs the credit for the dis
covery Of the microbe of distemper in
dogs and to Professors Ramsay and
Travers the discovery of krypton and
xenon. The latter have now been care
fully studied by their discoveries and
assigned their proper place in the table
of the periodic law.

six leading universities there are more
than 5000 students. These six are:
Harvard, 4,2S8; University Of Mich
gan, 1900; Minnesota, 3,410; Georgia,
1895; Chicago, 1888, and California,
3,025. Northwestern University has
1911 students this year; Cornell, 2,776;
Pennsylvania, 1867; Yale, 2,542; Co
lumbia, 1854, and Princeton, 1902.
There probably are over 100000 stu
dents In the various universities and
colleges Of America at present, and the
whole number Of persons who are be-
ing educated in the schools and col
leges combined is given as 1878, 1863.
Aside from all other considerations this
general tendency toward education
means one thing-labor in this country
must be dignified socially. It Is going
to be impossible for all the boys and
young men who are now in the schools
and colleges to 60 into professions.
Many of them will have to work with
their hands. Manual labor will still
have to be done even after everybody
is educated. Perhaps the condition
forecast by Bellamy-when those who
work as laborers shall receive just as
much consideration as men who get
into the professions and shall be COM
pensated for the sacrifices they make
| in taking what we now consider infe-
rior places in society-is not so far
away.

Drown in Kenosha Harbor.

Albert Langenbach and Rudolph hlos,
aged 10 and 16 years respectively, were
drowned in Kenosha harbor near the

which would Be Hurt Most?


When there is talk Of remedying the
evils of trusts by the abolition Of our
protective system it is just as well to
take little time for meditation and to
consider whether, by that method, some
other things which are not evils would
not be affected along with the trusts
President Mckinley once said:
You may close the shops by adverse
tariffs because you imagine the manu-
facturer is making too much, but with
that done you close the door of employ
ment in the face of the labOrer whose
only capital is his labor"
This same line of reasoning may be
applied to the question of trusts. By
the abolition of our protective system
we might cripple some of the trusts;
but, if we did, it would be only because
we would cripple the industries in
which trusts exist If we are put to
choice, it would be better to have So
called trust magnates" make some
what larger profit than they are justly
entitled to than to have the laboring
men of the country make nothing at
ALL Whatever evils exist in our pres
ent Industrial conditions exist apart
from and Independent Of the tariff, and
they should be so discussed and
remedy should be applied which will
remedy only the evils existing and not
one which, in remedying evils, would
sweep away all advantages as well,
and would destroy orr SnIandiN na
tional prosperity.

impression to the contrary, and should
the duty be removed the foreign COM
petitors, In conjunction with the big
trusts here, would be able to wipe the

tariff is an essential protection OF the
small manufacturer, but 1t doesn't cur
much figure with concerns controlling
immense capital, one way or the other.
1t is too late in the session to begin
tinkering with the tariff. Any tarin
revision should be done deliberately

discussion. The beginning of new

CzoIgosz Examined.

Buffalo, Set. 22.-Leon f. Czolgosz
whose trial for the assassination of Presi-
dent Mckinley began Monday, was ex.
amined as to his sanity by DR.. Carter f
Mcdonald of New York, the eminent
physician who was for years chairman OF
the state board of the lunacy commission.
The prisoners counsel, Judges Lewis and
Titus, were present at different times
during the examination. At its close DIR.
Mcdonald declined to discuss the case
and the attorneys would not express their
opinion as to the assassins mental condi-
ton, although the inference drawn from
their answers was that they believed
Czolgosz was sane. Mr. McDoland was
brought to Buffalo through the efforts OF
Professor Moot and Others of the bar as
ISOLATION for the purpose of passing on
the assassin's mind, as the association has
promised to assist Judges Lewis and
Iitu, who were suggested as counsel for
the defense by the trustees of the bar
association.
The examination was held in the pri-
vate office of District Attorney Penny in
the city and county Jail, preparations for
it being kept secret. Judges Lewis and
Titus appeared at the city hall few
minutes past 3 o'clock and went at once
into the district attorneys private office.
AT 1925 Czolgosz was brought into the
office handcuffed to Assistant Superin-
tendent Cussack of the police department.
He had been taken through the tunnel

was left alone with Judges Lewis and

exactly a half hour. when the prisoner's
attorneys again filed out of the room
Five minutes later Judge Lewis left TO
