A COSTLY GOLF COURSE.
IPittsburg Dispatch.


That a golf course is an expensive
institution is well recognized fact.
but when it is learned that the bill
for the grass seed sown on the new
Allegheny Country club links, back of
Sewickley, amounted to $1,000, many
golfers will open their eyes in surprise.
This bill of $1,000 was for the seed
sown last fall alone, in preparing the
ninety odd acres utilized by the
eighteen holes. 1t does not include
several hundred dollars expended this
season in replenishing the sod, nor the
expense of four two-horse lawn NOW
ers, which are kept constantly at work,
nor of the mammoth steam roller which
is also constantly used and which has
it's troubles, from the hilly nature of
the course. BY the time the golfer
has paid his car fare to Sewickley;
paid for the bus hire to the links,
nearly two miles back from the sta
ton; paid for the caddie boy. who at
tends him on the rounds,s and pays his
share for the maintenance of the great
course and the deliberately fitted and
extensively manned clubhouse, he will
realize that the long green is as nee
essary to the golfer who would enjoy
his sport as the putting green over
which he rolls the gutta percha.

BLIND MAN RUNS A MILL.
His System of Weighing Grain With
Little Sticks.
New York Commercially

Hugh Lee, sealer of weights and
measures, a few days ago, in his tour
of inspection, tumbled on to one of the
most remarkable business men in Con-
necticut, d. f. Dickerman, who owns
a grist mill on the Westfield road near
Meriden, which he conducts in very
successful manner. He is blind in both
eyes. but has been at the mill so long
that he knows every plank in the build
ing, and, without assistance, is able to
grind the grist of the farmers, as well
as sell grain and feed to others.
One of the most interesting portions
of his work is the weighing of the
grain and feed which he sells. He has
devised system whereby he can weigh
out any quantity with accuracy. He
has o number of little sticks, which
are cut just the length to mark off
on the arm of the scale the different
weights. By selecting his fifty-pound
stick-which he can pick out by feel
ing of its length-he places it against
the end of the arm of the scale, and
then moves the pendant up until 1t
reaches the other end of the stick.
He has sticks for weighing from
five to fifty pounds, and if he wanted
to weigh eighty pounds he would take
his twenty pound stick and place 1t at
the opposite end of the arm, which is
graduated for 100 pounds. After get
ting the scale to weigh what he wants
he puts the goods on the platform. and
by putting his hand lightly over the
arm, is able to tell when the scales
balance, and thus he weighs accurately
any amount he desires.
All the different grains are kept in
separate bins, and he knows where to
find every article in his place. He
handily waits on the farmers who drive
up to the big front door to buy feed
for their stock. In operating the ma
chinery of the mill he is just as meth
odical as clock work, and anyone
watching him would not dream that he
could not see. Only those who are
personally acquainted with this blind
miller know that such a man exists.

AN IOWA MOB.
TBoone Eepublican.1

1t was with deep regret that the peo-
pie of Iowa read the account of the
mob at Jefferson and the unfortunate
death of two citizens. There We're ex-
tenuating circumstances" but that does
not lessen the disgrace to the state. 1t
is the first recorded instance of an Iowa
mob taking the life of one of its citizens
and it was with no small degree of
pride that our people had pointed 10 the
clean record Of the state. 1t is hard to
find fault with the men at Jefferson for
the most conservative would probably
have done the same thing under the
same conditions. There is some conso-
lation in the thought that the deed was
not because of the fear the criminal
would not secure justice in the courts.
but because Their was no other way to
capture that half witted man and pro-
lection to society demanded his cap
ture. Lest we forget" should be
changed into Let us forget and may
this be the first and last instance of
mob rule in Iowa.

FROM eAMlNs TO JOLLY TARs
A Plan to Secure Training Ship fol
Lake Michigan.
TChicago Tribune


II is now proposed to obtain one OF
the smaller ships of the navy for use
as a naval training ship on Lake Mich
igan in connection with the rural home
and school for boys. Those who adj
yocate the plan believe that desirable
class of apprentices for the navy can
be secured in this manner, and that
the boys will be saved from the life
of the streets to serve their country
in it's great battle ships.
At present there is a great shortage
of seamen in the navy, and it has been
found impossible to secure enough men
to keep all of the battle ships and
cruisers in commission.
The proposed training ship will be
directly in line with the plans of Com
mander Hawley, who has been con-
Quoting an active campaign in Wash
ington to have a steamer detailed to
the lakes for this purpose.
The idea originated with Colonel
George Fabyan, who had a promin-
ent part in securing the Dorothea as a
training ship for the Illinois naval
militia.
The Navy department has number
of craft that would be available for
this purpose which are now lying in
ordinary at the various navy yards or
the coast. The size of the ship will
be restricted by the lengths of the
locks of the st. Lawrence canals, but
q steamer $50 feet long and of pro-
portionate beam can be taken from thu
Atlantic to the lakes in safety. A
complement of officers and teachers
could be secured among the lake nav
igators, who could drill the youngsters
in the duties of naval apprentices and
ordinary seamen, so they could be
graduated directly into the receiving
ships Of the Atlantic navy yards.
Commander Hawley was in charge
of the Chicago recruiting station dur
ing the war. He has declared that the
available material for naval seamen
on the coast has been used UP, and the
navy must look to the boys and young
men Of the middle west for it's future
lighting men.
