CONDITIONAL DISCHARGE AND PA

and confer some portion Of that power up
IN board Of prison commissioners, and
impose uI'On the governor in connection
Herewith the duty Of issuing warrants for
the recomriitment Of convicts who may
have violated the conditions of their dis
charges, the same being sections 53O6- 1909
of the Vermont Statutes, and No. 1876 of
the Acts of 1898 and No. 1O4 of the Acts Of
1900 under the leave granted to him in
Section 1905 of the Vermont Statutes, re.
quired of the judges of the Supreme Court
their opinions in writing upon the ques-
tions of law connected with the discharge
Of his duties arising under the statutes
above stated.
\ In disposing of the questions the Judges
used the following language:
1.-THE power to grant pardons Is given ia
the executive by the constitution in unre-
stricted terms. except In cases Of treason,
murder and impeachment and that such
general power includes the authority to

common law. is well settled. The grant
may be for full, partial, absolute, or oon-

We all know that the earth revolves
on its axis once in twenty-four hours.
Millions Of years ago the day was
twenty-five hours; millions OF years
before that It was twenty-one hours.
AS we look back into time we find the
earth revolving faster and faster.
There was a time, ages ago. when the
earth was rotating In a day Of five or
six hours In length. In the remotest
past the earth revolved in a day Of
about five hours. 1t could revolve no
faster and remain a single, unbroken
mass.
When our day was about five hours
long the moon was in contact with
the earth's surface. It had just broken
away from its parent mass, AS the
length Of the terrestrial day increased,
so did the distance Of the moon.
Whenever the rotation time Of
planet Is shorter than the period Of
revolution Of It's satellite, the effect
of their mutual action Is TO accelerate
the motion of the satellite and to force
it to move in a larger orbit-to increase
its distance, therefore.
The day Of the earth is now shorter
than the month-the period OF revolt
tion-of the moon. The moon, is, there
fore, slowly recedlng from use, and It
has been receding for thousands OF
centuries. But the day Of the earth is,
as we have seen, growing longer, The
finger Of the tides is always pressing
upon the rim Of our huge fywheel,
and slowly but surely lessening the
speed Of its rotation. So long as the
terrestrial day Is shorter than the
lunar month the moon win continue
to recede from uS.-New York Herald.

Horse chestnuts contain about TWEEN
ty-seven per cent. of albumen, this
remarkable proportion being greater
than is found in any cultivated plants,
but their bitter taste, due to the pres
ence OF about ten per cent Of bitter
rosin, has condemned them as unfit
for food BY extracting the bitter
principle, Flugge of Hanover claims
to have made useful another waste
material. After partial roasting to
loosen the shells, the kernels are re-
moved and pulverized, and the powder
is placed in a tight percolator, with
alcohol for about a week TO ex-
tract the bitter completely it may be
necessary to replace the fluid with

out the rosin, leaving a pleasant and

and a hygienlc point of view. as fol-
lows: First, the United States: second
England; third, Germany. closely fol-
lowed by France and Russia.
There is great difference I'm the
school systems, but IN two ways is
this more noticeable, viz. inspection
OF school work and IT'S results. The
system Of inspection abroad has been
developed to such an extent that It Is
more of a science than an ordinary
routine, as I'm this country. The In
spector spends at least a day a month
IN each room, making copious notes of
both teachers and pupils work. crlti-
cislng in open class Tie deficient stud
les and commencing those that are
satisfactory.
One report that I saw in Kcnmaro.
and prepared by the regular govern
ment officer, had the results carefully
tabulated. One copy was handed the
teacher, another was sent to the Board
Of Education, and another was retained
by the inspector to aid him in his fu-
ture visits, thus leaving something tan
gible for the teacher and pupils TO
work on. The report set forth that
the department Of the pupils was prop
erly maintained, but that the reading
OF the class was away below mar:
mathematics was fair, spelling excel
lent, penmanship could be improved
on, history WIS excellent but geogra-
ply Of the Western Hemisphere was
very poor, and grammar was all that
could be expected. With such a report
the teacher had some tangible basis
to work on before the next appearance
OF the inspector, before which time II
was expected the deficiency in studies
would be made up.
The inspection of class work In our
Chicago schools forms quite a CON
trast with this. Here the assistant
superintendent rarely spends over
half hour, and no report is made to the
teacher that would aid in remedying
defects, but she is left in ignorance Of
how her work compares with other
teachers efforts.
At the same time l am willing to
concede that 1t is possible to be more
definite abroad than at home, owing
to more specific aims in the minds Of
both the educators and textbook writ
ers. Textbooks are rarely changed
abroad, and a student is taught rather
to grasp and retain detailed informa-
ton than look for it himself. Binders.
as 1t were, are placed on his eyes, so
that he is unable to look sidewise.
Certainly these schools are more adj
vanced in theory than ours, but we
surely excel them from q practical
side.
Any one of the foreign schools is
better equipped, more expensive to
maintain and better fitted to exert
an influence in the student body than
ours, but the medieval practice Of re-

this transformation is said to lie in
the fact that the country around An

its use to allow several days shakings
to accumulate without interfering
with the ordinary working Of the fur
mace. AS it would be impossible to
lift full receiving can out of the well
beneath the furnace, the inventors
make provision for rolling it to the
opening on a car, and a lifting pulley
Is suspended directly above the trap
door to raise the can to the surface. If
several cans are provided the ashes
may easily be stored In the basement
until the ashman comes to collect, and
as the cans are emptied directly into
the wagon there is no occasion for the
use Of q shovel or raising a dust in the
