GOING TO MICHIGAN.

We learn that Hon. w. IL. Mylrea,
who moved from Wausau to Chicago
last spring, is about to give up the prac-

feels that his interests will be greatly
enhanced by ling into other business.
With several oentlemen of Chicago,
he has made purchase of large tract

W. G. Russell, photographer of the
U. S. Geological Survey in Kansas has
recently reported facts of more than
ordinary interest which we're brought
out by stream measurements conduct
ed in this state. The past year in
Kansas was one of exceptional drynesS
and the outflow of the streams was
smaller than it has been for number
OF years. Still the measurements
show that the cities and towns which
draw water supply from the rivers
need not fear shortage. One of the
smallest streams to be measured, the
Smoky Hill showed a supply sufficient
for $1,000 people; the Verdigris for
2I5, 200: the Solomon for 100000; the
Eeosho for $50, 600; and the Republi-
can for 1900, COO; all at their lowest
stages.

The death of Cecil Rhodes ends the
life of the one man who is responsible
for the Boer,war. 1t was he who, by
acts tending to haraSs the Beers, en-
gendered the strife which brought on
hostilities. Moved solely by greed he
wanted the South African republic to
become a British possession for then
he could do with it practically as he
chose. But his death will not end the
strife which ne created. His colossal
fortune, with others, has been organ
lied into a gigantic and fabulously
wealthy corporation which falls heir
TO his influence by which it will be
used to extend its own commercial
prestige and to crush the Boer pat
riots and all others who oppose Great
Britain, which nation is the source of
its being and protects it in its baleful
operatIcns.-Smith County Journal.

Recipe for Stopping War.

George T. Angel, editor Of Our
Dumb Animals, gives in his "Autobi-
ographical Sketches" the following
recipes, for preventing war:
81 believe it is IN the power OF the
Christian church to stop almost every
war. When the next threatens, were
the clergy of all denominations to meet
in every city and town. and petition
congress to settle the dispute by arbi-
tration. Let every clergyman on the
next Sunday preach sermon on war,
and then circulate in his parish feel
ing against it. Let great union pray
er meetings be held in all our cities
and towns, to pray that the war may
be averted; and let Christians OF all
nations be invited by kilograms to
join in that prayer. Let every Chris
tian wife and mother when war threat
ems, wear some emblem Of moruning
until the danger is past. If these
things were done, think few pOliti-
clans would dare to rise in congress, or
anywhere, to advocate war. When
the united voices Of the Christian
church shall demand peace on earth,
good will to men, great armies will no
longer be needed, and Christmas
chimes will ring out such melodies as
the world has never heard.
SIN this country, 1 think, one OF our
first steps should be to so amend our
constitution that war shall never be
declared except by majority vote Of
the whole nation; and on that cues
tion every wife and mother who has
husband or son liable to military duty
should be permitted to vote"
There are 10000 ministers of the
gospel in the United States. II, on
threat OF war, each Of these should
proceed to do as Mr.. Angel suggests
and get one hundred sfgners to his
petition, the total number of signers
would be sixteen and a half millions
enough to swamp any Threatened war
imaginable in these times.-Osage

Rats IA Lannn.

There are perhaps in no other
country of the world SO many rats as
in Japan. The wooden buildings with
their straw roofs offer the best lurk-
ing places for them. Whilst we use
dogs and cats to get rid of the rats,
the japanese employ for the same
purpose a certain kind of snake, the
"dodaishos,' blue-green viper. They
are sometimes as long a. seven feet,
and are said to be the best rat
catehers in the world.
