ENTH USI5SM BALTIMORE,

Baltimore is enthusiastic over the prospect that it will soon be out of the clutches of the coal barons The plan is to transmit the vast power of the susquehanna river into the city. That part of the river where it is proposed to locate the electric plant is about thir- ty-five miles from Baltimore, and in a short distance there is a fall of one hundred and twenty feet, down which a mighty torrent rushes. It is proposed to utilize this power by three plants, the turbine wheels of each to be run by water having a fall of forty feet, and each of these plants. it is estimated, will generate a current which will af- ford fifty thousand horsepower. This enormous power can be transmitted to Baltimore with comparatively little loss. To build these power houses, ex- tend wires and dam the Susquehanna river will require a large amount of capital But after the plant has been completed the operation is comparative ly inexpensive, as nature supplies the motive power free of cost. It is figur- ed that power can be supplied in Bal timore cheaper than that afforded by coal at dollar ton.
 There seems to be no reason why Bal timore cannot have the benefit of the power of the Susquehanna. The Niaga- "a Falls Electric Company transmits power to even greater distances than from the Susquehanna to Baltimore In the Pacific States also there are elec- tric plants which utilize waterfalls for the motive power and transmit the cur- rent over long distances

M0REDEMocRxTIC HARMONY.

Democratic harmony is increasing,
 and the indications are that by 1904
 there will be enough to shake a stick at. The indications also are that sticks will be shaken at it. The latest and not least important addition to Democratic harmony is the letter of Brother Bryan to the Tilden club. This letter says
 that through the oversight of a clerk in his office Brother Bryan did not know that he had been invited to the famous
 dinner. It also says that if he had
 known it he would have declined the in- vitation, and he gives his reason for de- clining. This appears to be the reason: When MT. Cleveland left the party in did not eriticise his decision, although. as the party candidate, was compelled to bear the odium which his adminis- tration had brought upon the party-an
 odium which had already led to a more disastrous defeat than any since expe- rienced. He has never yet indicated an intention to return to the Democratic
 party, and his business interests are
 such as to make his return improbable.
 Until he does manifest some respect for
 Democratic principles and policies I do not understand why he should be an
 honored guest at a political dinner given
 by Democratic club.
 Here's harmony, and also richness.
 Brother Bryan will be roundly "cussed"
 for this effort to promote harmony, but
 he can rightly say that he is as har- monious as those who revile him and his works. He is also making money, and will continue to make it until har- mony wipes him out

The machine is suited for all plain work, such as walls, sheds, mills, fac tories, rows of cottages, piers of bridges, etc. Considerable pressure is put on the bricks, and it is claimed that the work is more firmly done than by hand. The invention will do the work of six or seven skilled bricklay- CTS, and it is believed that a machine adapted to build factory about 6Ox4o feet could be put on the market for $500 The apparatus can be readily worked after a fortnight's instruction.

JUSTICE TO THE DRAGON FLY.

Science and Mythology Agree That He is a Natural Mosquito Destroyer. Apropos of the recent discovery that the dragon fly is destroyer of mo- scuitoes and as such is entitled to all the protection that can be extended. it is interesting to learn that the investi- gators and scientists of the Army and Navy hospital have been forestalled in
 the discovery by the negroes of lower Louisiana The dragon fly is known un- der different names in different sec- tiOns of the United States. In some sections it is known under the name of 'snake-d doctor" in others the name of "big head fly" prevails, while dragon fly" is, perhaps, the most general de- signation under which this insect is known, but in Louisiana it is known as the mosquito hawk" to the exclusion Of all other designations
 The name dragon fly is unknown in lower Louisiana, where the insect has never been known under any other
 name than that of mosquito hawk" and where it is the object of what many have considered myth, but which, in the light of recent investigations, turns
 out to be a bit of good, sound reason and fact. For long time the negroes of that section have chung to the belief
 that the mosquito hawk" is a destroy
 CT of mosquitoes, and that to kill one is to court misfortune and i'll luck. It is
 said that this was formerly the belief of the Attakapas Indians, a tribe now
 extinct, but which at one time occupied the whole of lower Louisiana. and that
 the negroes received the myth from them. At all events the dragon fly is
 protected in Louisiana. just as in other
 states people are not allowed to modest
 the buzzard They believe that the mo-
 squito hawk hovers about pools of
 waters, capturing and devouring the
 young mosquitoes as fast as they
 emerge from the water, and, as for that
 reason, 1t is looked upon as a benefac-
 tor to mankind,-Washingto Post,

4 KMNTUCKY EPISODE

H. c. Jenkins was calling on his girl near salyersville. Kentucky. and be- cause her ten-year-old brother hung around" and interfered with the love antics Jenkins shot and seriously in- tured him.
 Those who are "courting" under such a difficulty as that which beset MT. Jenkins will almost approve his act, but of course it is indefensible. He would have done better to hire the boy to go away, or as last resort he might have given him the good whipping which he merited. But in shooting him he com mitted a crime, and also showed his unfitness to become the husband of the offending boys sister. If sine declines to be courted any more by the young man who shot her brother she will show the good sense which she of course possesses. If she doesn't there may be another tragedy when she hap pens to bother her nasty lover. Of course MT. Jenkins can say that he shot the boy because he loved the boy s sister so much that he couldn't stand any interference with the demonstra- tions of his love, but the obvious reply to that will be that he didn't love the girl enough to tolerate her dear little brother. And if he didn't of course he didn't love her enough or love her in the right way.

. A Japanese newspaper has the fol-
 lowing story of debt. A peasant had borrowed the sum of 15 yen ($750) on the security of small house owned by him. The term for the repayment of the loan having come and gone and the usurer seeing no immediate probability of getting his money back the creditor was dunned to the verge of distraction. He alleged that he was unable properly to feed his family owing to the hard times and that it would not be until summer that his scanty acres would yield enough to pay the loan and in-
 terest. Nothing would satisfy the cred- itor but that the peasant should give up the house. 'The house is mine" de- clared the usurer, "and if you do not

It is getting more and more danger pus to live. Dr. de Lavarenne, editor Of La Presse Medicale, refers to the manner in which the use of saccharin x is being extended. It is not only used to sWeeten beer, but 1t is now employed in the manufacture of syrups, jams, Ienonades, wines (especially cham pagne), cider, brandy, pastry and choc- plates. Special substances of this na- ture are on the market for sweetening cider and brandy. Among these sucra- mine may be mentioned, which is said s to be TOO times sweeter than cane sugar. Other products of the same kind are sugar extract (made in Switz- erland), cannabin, etc. All these names are misleading. for the sub- stances are only sugars in name, being coal-tar derivatives. They are not foods. Moreover, their long, continued use may gravely affect the digestive functions. Dulcin, another sweetening body, which has been used as substi- ute for saccharin, was given to a dog at the rate of one gram a day. The animal died in three weeks.

A law passed by the Austrian parlia- nent regulating the traffic in butter, cheese, lard and their substitutes re- gently took effect. The object of the law is to protect the producer against unfair competition and the consumer against fraud. The artificial butter made from oils and suet which has been sold by retail dealers as genuine but ter can no longer be dealt in except specifically and distinctly as margarine.
 All preparations of or from margarine must be labeled so as to show exactly what they are. The sale of mixtures of margarine and real butter is forbid den. To make recognition easier 10 per cent. of margarine must be sesame oil, which can be easily detected chemical 1y. The outer sign of the substitute must be a broad red stripe and in addi- ton to this an exact designation of the contents must appeal on all wrappings.
