Bad spelIlno. Is

Only fifty-six out of 141 freshmen at the
Northwestern university were able to
pass an examination in spelling Thew
were tested with ordinary words. not with
difficult and perpleXing ones; and the test
was too much for most of them. Probably
similar examinations at almost any Amer
lean university would show substantially
the same results. Spelling is not an ac-
eel Nor do the graduates sof the COM
mon schools distinguish themselves In
this. useful but now somewhat Supercillf-
ously regarded branch. The letters of
the average public school graduate or
university graduate are likely to be pro-
life in bad spelling.
Prof. Clark, aof the Northwestern univer-
sity, says the trouble is with the so-called
Scientific method of teaching spelling
The public schools turn zoEt graduates
who have learned with great pains how
not to SPELL The undergraduates and
graduates of the colleges probably spell
a little or considerably worse than the
public school children.
But the great thing is the method.
Nothing can equal the pity which the en-
thusiasts of the new method bestow upon
children who have learned to spell with
out reliance upon it. Spelling is moth
ing; method is everything. Let us re-
tastic or blundering speller: The worse
he spells the more superior is the method
by which he came to. that -eminence
as a muddler and twister of orthography.

BABY SEA LION is JUST
TOO CUTE FOR ANYTHING
Younester Is Feature of Animal Ex-
hibit at ST. outs Fair Grounds.

There is q baby sea-lion, the only
seal bred in captivity in this country,
at the Fair grounds in ST Louis, with
Capt. WoodWard'S widely known fam
lily of performing seals. He is only
few weeks old.
Though the youngster has not been
on public exhibition, the few women
who have been permitted to gaze upon
him have exclaimed rapturously that
tHe is JUS. too cute for anything"
OF course, none ever allowed the
thought to creep in in this connection
that If converted into a coat or one Of
those new-fashioned shoulder wraps
known as berthas, which the ladies
wear, he would be the cutest thing i'm
agfnable.
The baby sea lions ways do not
differ materially from those Of other
infants, except that he squeals or
grunts, or whatever seals do when
they make a noise, more pleadingly
when the odor of fish is waited to his
rostrils than e. human baby bowls

he ought to eat, and, like other babies
he seems to think he ought to eat
rather often.
His tank, or cradle, adjoins that Of

Hugh Mcdonald, assistant emigration

are very affectionate to their children,
and while the latter may have been made
to suffer unnecessary hardship on ac
count of the religious craze that pos

has been a single case of wanton cruelty
or desertion.
For my part have great hopes of the
Doukhobours. If their peculiar religious
beliefs could be toned down, and their

the net result would be big improve

never existed in any country more in

Last Monday" said Louis Hirsch, of
Castle Bros, 81 wired to our represen-

said Mr.. Hirsch, ARE the Costa Cusa

seems to indicate, one-third of the
crop is most likely involved.
"The volcano of Santa Maria is To-
Gated between Retalhulen and Quezal-
tenango. The towns in the neighbor-
hood most likely to be destroyed are
San Felipe, Mezatenango and Quezal-
tenango. The volcano has been quiet
for many years. I was in the district
last April at the time when earth
quakes racked the country. No vol
canic eruptions accompanied the
quakes, however"
WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct. 3O.-A
cablegram was received at the state
department today from Consul General
McNally which is of interest in con-
nection with the isthmian canal pro-
jects, relating as it does to the vol
canic conditions in Central America.
He reports that the eruption of the
volcano at Santa Maria, adjoining
Quezaltenango, continues; that the
city is covered with six inches of vol
canic matter; rich coffee plantations
on the coast side buried under seven
feet of sand and ashes from the vol
cano and that detonations from the
eruption were heard in the capital.
There have been frequent earthquakes
and another eruption is reported in the
department of Tombador.

Tricks of cIaar Trade.

The revelation that, on certain cigar
stands in New York where one would not
urally expect to receive tobacco of
quality for which it was said suffers
or inferior grades Of tobacco were used
brands. caused Louis Keep, a wholesale
cigar dealer of Chicago, at the Holland
house the other day, to recall the old AK
ION that there are tricks in every trade.
II venture to say said Mr.. Keep, that
few people buying cigars out of box
get what they pay for The temptation to
be dishonest. is too strong. If the head
of the firm doesn't cennive with his en-
ployes, frequently the clerks Will sell an
inferior cigar in a box bearing a we'll
known brand, and pocket the difference.
OF course. if you buy by the box from
reputable dealer you get what you pay
for. You take box of cigars of a medi-
UNI or poor class, and you will find that
the top layer and the bottom layer are
the best. The reason for this is when
a man smokes the first few cigars out Of
a box he enjoys them. AS he goes
through the box they get worse AS he
reaches the lower layer he will probably
say that he will never buy that brand
again. Suddenly the quality improves.
and he generally says: We'll, guess I
will try another box. There is the trick"

A German Motor Novelty.

A motor wagon of decidedly novel
character is being. experimental wis,
among others, by the army service corps,
with view to IS adaptabiliy for
transport of military stores, etc. 1t is
known as a Keller wagon, and is of Ger
man make. The principle is that it lays
down a line of rails to travel over as it
goes along. Four steel double Hanged
wheels about two feet in diameter carry
the wagon, and these rest inside seven
feet circular rails, the outside surfaces
of which are broad and fiat. The rails
are kept in position at the sides of the
wagon by two smaller Hanged guide
wheels across its diameter, by means of
which the steering is done. AS the wagon
is driven along the rails revolve, thus
presenting a uniform level surface for
the wagon to travel over. A speed of
eight miles an hour can be attained
drawing fairly heavy trailer, the en-
gines being 28-horsepower. Three large
circular rails at each side of the wagon
give it the appearance of having four
large wheels without spokes or axles.-
