The .T0lIvnSh.

The bay of Naples abounds in me-
dusn or jellyfsh, often growing as
large as two feet in diameter and
weighing fifty and sixty pounds. Some
of them shine at night with a greenish
light and are known as ''noctiluca"
night lanternsJ by the natives. The
jellyfish sometimes make migrations
in great groups, sometimes so large and
so thick as to impede the navigation
of vessels. like the floating plants in
the Sargasso sea of the tropics. These
shoals of medusR, as they are called,
may be so dense that piece of timber
plunged in among them will be held
upright as if stuck in the mud, and
ordinary rowboats cannot force their
way through them. Their migrations
have never been explained. They are
irregular and occur at no particular
season of the year and under no par
ticular influences.

The worlds Greatest Choir.

Russia boasts of the worlds greatest
choir. 1t is in the cathedral of Alex
ander Nevski in st. Petersburg and is
attached to a convent erected in honor
of the patron saint of Russia. Its mem
bers are all monks chosen from the
best voices in all the Russian monas-
teries. When a fine singer appears
among the novitiates, he is sent to the
monastery of Alexander Nevski. where
he is trained as carefully as an opera
singer and remains there, doing moth
ing except assisting at the music at
mass in the morning and vespers in the
afternoon until he becomes aged, when
he retires on a pension. Some of the
voices are of marvellous strength and
sweetness, and it is said that some
members of the choir can shatter /
thin glass into fragments by singing
into it, so powerful are the vibrations
of their tones. The monks are all vege-
tarians. They never eat meat. The
rules of the church forbid them to
shave, and their hair is worn like a
woman's.

A Correction.

When President Blanco's administra-
tion in Venezuela was overturned, that
official, who, report said, had accumu
lated great wealth while in office, went
to Paris. He was strolling in boule
ward in the French capital when a
passing pedestrian arrested the pace
of his companion and said: ''See that
man? He stole $3,000,000 when his
government was overthrown." Quick
as a flash Senior Blanco turned. "Beg
pardon, sir" he said Jelly, ''but it was
$5,000.000.'

The Newspaper From the Socialist
Standpoint.

Communicated
The cheapest things on earth are
the postage stamp and the Newspa-
per. This letter, if printed, can be
mailed at San Francisco, and directed
to THE Times, London, England, in
which event great railroad system
established at enormous cost will
take it and convey it over the Ameri-
can continent to New York, where
an expensive steamship will meet it,
and carry it to the English shore, it
will here be taken charge of by the
English authorities, who will railroad
it to London, and furnish man who
will carry it to the Office of the paper
all this service costs one cent. To
appreciate its wonderful cheapness,
compare it with something; the
price of car fare will send five such
letters.
Competition has forced the price of
the newspaper from cents to 2
cents and l cent, quadrupled it's size
and made it ridiculously cheap to the
consumer. Try to buy so much blank
paper. The fact is, the advertiser
subscriber Competition is so fierce
that little business can be done with
out advertising. 1t is the advertising
that is profitable to the paper and
other things being equal, the circula-
ton gets the advertiser, hence the
nominal price of the paper, to secure
the circulation. Competition will
probably force the price to cents
or even l cent week; then a cutting
in advertising rates will ensue, which
ler's famous saying: Its combina-
ton or ruin"
But the newspapers are many,
hence there is no combination posi-
BILE to them that will restrict produc-
ton, by the closing of competing
plants, and thus control prices. In
| this respect the editor is in the same
| predicament as the worker; their
| struggle for existence is identical, and
with both the weakest will go first.
Private combination impossible, the

tors are offering their columns to the
| people for the free discussion of SO
cialism. We also believe they are
sick of the reign of industrial terror
which covers the land, and which
they know will exist while the com
petitive system remains.
When the editors conclude that
competition is cruel and vicious, and
cannot be made otherwise, and it
must go-well, it will just go. Moth
ing can withstand their mighty infiu-
ence when it is concentrated. Few
editors realize their almost limitless
power. few feel their consequent and
fearful responsibility. Those who dc
are quick to open their columns to
the people, so as shift it to the Shout

Bit of Bucca~neer History Connected
With "a Havana Theater.


With "a Havana Theater.
The Tacon theater in Havana. one Of
the largest and most famous in the
western hemisphere, was built by an
old reprobate, MART, who was a no.
torious pirate in his day and obtained
immunity for himself by betraying his
comrades into the hands of the Span
ish authorities. One dark and rainy
night Marti slipped by the sentry
guarding the palace in Havana and
entered the apartments of the captain
general, who was writing at table.
When the governor general raised his
eyes and saw the cloaked figure before
him, he reached for the bell.
stop, your excellency!" cried the
stranger. Il am here on a desperate
enterprise. l have come to deliver into
your hands every pirate on the Cuban
coast upon one conditional pardon for
myself"
You shall have it" was the answer.
"But who are you"
81 am Marti, and l rely upon the
promise you have given me-"
Preparatory to this interview Marti
had appointed rendezvous for the
different bands, to which he conducted
the Spanish force. and every pirate
was captured and, righteously garroted.
AS for Marti, he was not only par
doned, but was given monopoly OF
the sale of fish in Havana, which made
him rich and thus eminently respected
citizen, who ended his days in the odor
of sanctity.-Army and Navy Journal.

The proposition discussed In some
quarters of increasing the salaries Of
congressman and senators from S.
900 to $4,000 will not be received with
favor by a majority of the people.
While there may be some members OF
both houses whose time and services
would bring them greater reward out
side of the halls of congress a major
ity. are amply paid for their time and
talents. particularly is this true of the
house members. Besides there is the
honor attached to a seat in either
house. There are a number of federal
senators who are so little for the sal
airy that they are willing to give a big
bonus to secure n seat. There are
members in both houses who find time
to engage in other pursuits and are
rot wholly dependent upon their sal
aries for a living. A seat in either
house will never go a-begging and If
there are any who are not satisfied
with their compensation they will al
ways find someone willing to succeed
them, and the country would probably
lose nothing by the change.

OBSERVE THE DAY.

In accordance with the suggestion
offered by Governor Nash of Ohio.
that January 30, the anniversary of
President McKinley's birthday, be OBJ
served in a fitting manner. Governor
Toole has issued an address to that
eject. 1t is proposed that public
schools hold appropriate exercises
and the children be given an oppor.
tunity TO contribute toward the monu.
ment to be erected at Canton, Ohio.
by the Mckinley National Memorial
association. 1t is further requested
that appropriate church services be
held on the Sunday preceding the
above date. or January Goth.
These are good suggestions that
should reach the hearts of the people
everywhere. Everyone Is aware of
the tender regard with which Presi-
dent Mckinley held the children. On
many occasions he took special de.
light In addressing them directly. and
always said things that gave them
pleasure, hope and courage. Many
will be pleased TO add their mite in
the erection of the monument over his
remains. Let teachers and scholars
and the people Of Fergus county do
their part in promoting this worthy oh.
ject. It only requires a little from all
tC make a most creditable showing.

Mr.. bryan's high card in his eastern
lecture tour is twisting the British
lions tail, because he can do 1t in a
reckless and irresponsible way with
out injury to himself or the lion.
| While engaged in this delectable pas

the United States government for not
expressing official sympathy with the
Poers. This government long ago Of
fered its services to Great Britain as
a mediator. which offer was very re-
spectfully declined. This is
than the other great powers have
done and as far as this government

ity of a friendly power. That the

pie are in sympathy with the Beers

Official action in the way of expressing
sympathy would not end the war o

interference in tho South African war
would be regarded as an unfriendly

The government may have a diff.
cult problem on hand in making the
noble red man self-sustaining and II is
likely to require a great many years
OF effort to get him to work, but it is
high time to make a start in that d.
r~ection. Just why an Indian should
be encouraged in idleness and vag-
rancy by being herded on a govern.
ment reservation is not clear. He
may be too proud and lazy to work
hut when il comes to the alternative
OF work or starve he might think 4
worth while to exercise his muscles.
The government seems determined to
inaugurate a new policy in dealing
with the Indians. Their rations are
to be reduced and an effort made to
render them self-supporting by home
stead allotments to each Indian and
his family. BY this means 1t is hoped
that the Indians will gradually accept
the new order of things and event.
ually relieve the government of their
charge. The process will be slow but
t. should be undertaken. An Indian is
not much better than a white man
even if he is accorded special privil.
eyes.
