LONDON, Oct. 14.-Sir David Bar
bour, who was special commissioner
appointed to inquire into the finances
of the Transvaal and Orange River
Colony, presiding today at a meeting
of the Standard Bank Of South Africa,
predicted that the gold production Of

the country settled down, be very
largely exceeded, and that with the
increase in mining there would be a
proportionate increase in the agricul-
tural and pastoral industries and a
general extension of trade and COM
merce.

IN NEW HAVEN ONCE,

The London Chronicle is batting it. self and London on the back because there are public kitchens" in London. In order to test the public kitchen sys- tenn the other day the editor of the Chronicle gave an order for a dinner for several persons. Promptly to the minute the hampers, lined with tin and heated by cunning alcohol stoves, ar- rived. Tn each hamper were four com- partments, each of which held it's dis tinct course and hot plates. In a baize bag were the silver and cutlery, small cruet and bread wrapped in Japanese napkins. "The cooking was everything that could be desired, and the dishes as fresh as if they had just come from the oven. Everything was spotlessly clean. the cutlery and napery good and the dishes were specially contrived for retaining the heat and not spilling their contents" In short, the dinner was "every bit as good as can be ob- tained at an ordinary club" for 75 cents or dollar, "yet it's cost was only two shillings (half dollar) for each per son." A family can be supplied with all meals at $5 week head-meals which would cost $S or $10 a week at a club. Not even in housekeeping could the same meals be had for the same price.
 This, or better, could have been done in New Haven a little while ago, and there are many who think that it is q pity that while New Haven got up to date in this matter she didn't seem able to stay there.

THE PHILkpI.fNES-

Appropriate reading for the Fourth of July is the announcement that Presi- dent Roosevelt has formally declared the restoration of peace in the Philip pines. has placed the islands under complete civil control, and has extend- ed general amnesty to the Filipinos who have been in rebellion.
 So far so good. Our Manifest Destiny seems to be working fairly well. But there are those who would be glad to see President Roosevelt declare that the Philippines had been sold to Japan, and that the great work of civilization be- gun by us in the islands would be car ried on by the enterprising and pro gressive Japanese.

IRRIGATION OF CAPILLARY AT

1RRIGATION OF CAPILLARY AT TRACTION.
 Flage Carter, of Breckinridge county, explains his method of irrigating a tree l as follows: He first takes vessel, a pan or bucket-anything that may be tied to 8 tree limb. This vessel he fills with water and attaches to the tree. A slender twig about the size of a lead pencil is inserted in the water, which is gradually absorbed by this twig. MT. Carter states that the branch will ab- sorb every drop of water in the utensiI.
 Capillary attraction is the future ir- rigation," continued MT. Carter. 1T took up the matter about two years ago, but did not put 1t to final test till this spring. Then I had two trees, that needed attention badly, and experi- mented with each. One young tree had been rubbed roughly by a horse and was wilted badly. applied my method of watering It and within one week it completely revived. I next treated q sick apple tree and it is now all right, I'm glad to say.
 MT. Carter predicts that the future ir- rigation of the country will be done through forest trees on the "capillary attraction principle. and that from this mode will extend irrigatBIion to all the vegetable kingdom. m.-Breckinridge News

LANDLUBBER AND HAMMOCK.
His First Night at Sea and Attempt to
 Sleep as Sailors Do.

His First Night at Sea and Attempt to Sleep as Sailors Do.
 A ships hammock is a friend after
 one gets on the right side of it. For the
 landlubber that is the side hardest to find. The newspaper men who recently
 went on the Dixie to Martinique and St. Vincent discovered that fact the first
 night out, says the New York Tribune.
 Captain Berry had said to all that there were no quarters on the ship except the
 berth deck, and that every man would
 have to swing his own hammock. That was figurative only, for the carpenter, Gill, obligingly suspended the ham mocks from hooks, and some of the
 Dixie's tackles made them fast. That | was a blessing in more ways than one. It settled the choice of places and it saved bones and sleep.
 When bedtime came everybody looked
 at everybody else, and at the first op-
 portunity sneaked below. There every body saw everybody else studying the situation, and trying to figure out how he could get into an elusive bunk, the lowest part of which was as high as his
 shoulders. A New York reporter, whose hammock hung in a retired cor
 ner, carefully laid his clothes across the hammock cords above his pillow and then gently insinuated his person into the middle of the internal machine. Down went the clothes. and the ham,
 mock avoided him with an agility worthy of better cause A broken watch, shower of French coins from his pockets and loud howl of derislon from the others were the net result. The tackles helped recover the coins, and then told the newspaper man to grasp the pipe above and swing himself in at one motion. A newspaper man l from the west profited by this informa- | tion and at once swung himself He landed in the hammock, but it imme- dately turned over, and he fell out on the other side He was heartily cheered.
 One of the boys who had been to sea once before volunteered to illustrate go- ing to bed on the rolling deep, and landed gracefully in the middle Of the hammock, then steadied himself by the hand hold above and gently swayed to and fro with the motion of the ship The expressions of admiration caused
 him to lose his head, and in turning over to acknowledge the plaudits of the crowd he capsized his craft, and was dumped on the deck so neatly and quickly that nobody could tell how it happened.
 By that time the destraint was pretty we'll worn off, and everybody tried get ting into his bunk. The Dixie's jackies
 had more fun for the next five minutes
 than during the entire cruise to China
 and the Philippines and home again,
 which preceded the relief expedition.
 At last all tho hammocks were full and
 sleep was general. It was broken by

CUBAN KECIPkOCITK.

Another appropriate announcement for the Fourth of July is that Cuban reciprocity is not dead, or even sleeping. It appears that conference on Cuban reciprocity was held yesterday between President Roosevelt and Chairman Payne of the House Committee on Ways and Means. Mr. Payne after wards said he was satisfied that reci- procity with Cuba would be effected at the next session of congress with al- most unanimous vote in both houses. The method by which this will be att tained, he said, will be by treaty. Un- der ordinary conditions, he said, a treaty is ratified by the senate only, but in matters of this kind, involving questions of revenue under the Dingley law, the house, under the Constitution, has equal jurisdiction with the senate.
 Congress has already heard from the country on the Cuban reciprocity matter, and it will hear more. The in- dications now are that almost every body in congress will be for Cuban reciprocity next fall.

4 SIGN OF THE TIMES TN RUSSIA

It is hard to tell what is going on in Russia, but an indication of the situa- ton there is found in the report of M
 de P,ehve, Russian Minister of the h. terior, which induced the Czar to sus- pend the collection of statistics in a number of provinces. What he says, in effect, is that the zemstvos, or village councils, which are held responsible for certain statistical work, have been in- nocently employing revolutionary agents, who have taken advantage of the opportunities afforded them by their semi-official position to SOW the seeds of revolt broadcast among the peasantry. MT. Sipiaguine, who was assassinated short time ago, had dis covered this dangerous state of affairs, and had recommended that the statisti- cal work be taken out of the hands of the local and intrusted to the central administration, but he was killed before any decisive action was taken. M. de Plehve, upon his accession to power, found the situation so desperate that

The DuPonts of Delaware will mark the tooth anniversary of their settle- nieilt in this country as powder makers by an extraordinary display of fire- work on the ground of the Whining ton Country club on the Fourth of July. The .DuPonts own powder mills in all parts of the country, from the Atlantic to the Pacific. Among the DuPonts themselves there is process of selec- ton for those who are to have to do with the powder works. The young sters are watched, and when one shows nervousness in the face of danger he is placed somewhere else than in the pow der mills. The rule is that a DuPont in person shall always lead whenever there is imminent danger. A number of DuPonts first and last-and some of them important ones-have been killed under this rule; and there re- peatedly have been heroic escapes from death through this disregard of the fear of it.

THE EYER GLORIOES.

The indications are that this will be a rather uncommonly Glorious Fourth in this region. It has started in with great vigor and noise. Preparations have been made for good time all around, and though there will be many tired be- fore the festivities are over perhaps they will be happy. There will be the usual accidents" and many will be anxious about fires until the last fire- cracker has been fired. Perhaps the copious rain that has fallen will some what decrease the danger of fires, but there will be danger enough. Let us celebrate, never mindful what it costs. It is figured that about five thousand people will be wounded in this country by to-day's celebration and fifty or more will be killed. There will be many disastrous fires. and there is no telling what else will happen. But let the eagle scream, even if it splits it's throat and gets its tail feathers burned off.

The duel was fought with swords and resulted in the minister of foreign affairs slicing off a piece of the ear of the deputy, among the witnesses of the encounter being Signor Bacclli, minister of public in struction, and signor Blancheri, the president of the Chamber of Deputies. Yet nowhere in Europe are the laws against duelling more stringent than in Italy. Italian duels are far more seri-
