THE WORKING MAN AND. HOME. "Once during a strike, the manager suggested that MT, McNutt should go in and talk to the men, remarking that it would be good for the men if they only go paid once year, as they would not then get drunk so often. MT. McNutt went in and said to one man, How many of you men here own your homes?' The man looked at him as if he thought he had just escaped from a lunatic asylum, and replied, Don't you know that home is hindrance to a Workingman? MT. McNutt says that he did not know it then, but he does now. No one ever knows when a strike may come, When it does come, there is nothing in sight except journey to some other city, if practicable, And then, of course, there is the question of the family.
 Another thing. Comparatively few men own their own tools now, because there are so many machines that have superseded them; also, for the reason that many of the latest improved tools are so expensive for the ordinary din- ner-pail man to. buy. There are three gulfs, the existence of which constitutes a menace to the community. The gulf between the man and his tools; the gulf between the man and his employer,and, often, the gulf between the man and his family. The question of the preserva- tion of the family is a most serious one, for it is difficult to see how the Ameri- can nation can contiue to exist if the family life of so large and important a part of the population cannot be pre- served. The pathos of the world to-day Is often the inability of the man to keep the home and the family together. "- John w. Clark, in the Pilgrim.

NANCY JoHNsoN's LOG CABIN.

On the south bank of the lagoon skirting the government building active work is being done on the 10 acres of ground allotted to the Six Nations ex- hibit. At present there are three Sem eca Indians from the Tonawanda reser- vation working on the old house which is a shelter Nancy Johnson, herself one of the most remarkable and interesting features of the Indian exhibit. Nancy Johnson is a Seneca squaw who reached the age of 120 years For the last 100 years she has been a resident of the Tonawanda reservation, and has lived in the little log house which is now be- ing put up on exposition grounds. One of the conditions upon which Mrs Johnson consented to appear at the ex- position was the suitable provision should be made for her shelter. Then
 it wasf tht the idea of transporting her cabin to the grounds was conceived. It was not certain when the cabin was built but it was shortly after the Rev olutionary war, and it was estimated that the timbers in it were hewed somewhat more than 100 years ago The sidewalks are composed of huge, rough ly cut logs of red beech. and the roof is matched with elm bark. The beech logs have attained the hardness of iron and when cut take on a polish like ebony They are thoroughly seasoned, and in appearance bear out the story of their great age.-Buffalo Express.

HOW THE FLOWERS SLEEP.

Flower growers have discovered how to produce lilacs iH autumn, and in the coming fall will put these pretty blos- sons on the market in cCnsidera ble quantities. Ii is quite wonderful achievement. considering how peculiar ly they are associated with the spring time, and the way In which it is ac- complished is most curious and inter- esting.
 Tn a state Of nature. the lilac plant requires period of rest before pro- ducing it's flowers. That period is the winter. when the cold enforces repose. But it is found that the plant can be cheated into blossoming in autumn by which put it to sleep for a little while, alter which it proceeds to blossom lux uriantly.
 Florists grow the plants in pots, and in the fall place them, pots and all in large box which contains an un- ccrked bottle of ether. In this man ner they are exposed to the ether vapor for fOrty-eight hours, the box being air-tight and sometimes the operation is repeated a few days later When they come out they are ready to start right in at blossoming, and the glass gardener obtains a fine crop of lilacs for the early winter trade
 The process sometimes weakens the cOlCrs of the flowers, but this does not matter in the case of lilacs, because the kind preferred by florists is the white Saturday Evening Post.

MAPPING CALIFORNIA.

Important topographic work in sec tions of southern California is now being carried on by the United States geological survey, under the general supervision of Richard U. Goode. ge- ographer. Two parties have been in the field since the season commenced One of these, under MT. w. T. Turner. with MT. s. N. Stoner as principal as sistant, is continuing the work which has been going on for several years in the Mount Pinos and Zaca Lake and Santa Ynez forest reserves. The other party. under MT. J. E. Rockhold, with MT. [. R. Childs as principal assistant. is completing the work begun during the last field season in the vicinity of San Diego. thus finishing the mapping of practically all of the thickly settled portion of southern California
 Precise spirit leveling will be con tinUed by a party under Mir C. H. Semper. This party will first complete a gap in the line which was begun dur ing the last field season at a tidal con- nection at Benecia and carried through the. San Joaquin valley and across the Tehachapi mountains. so as to make junction with spirit levels previously run in southern California. After this work is completed the party will go

eye as forcibly when he went abroad as when the king himself travels in state.
 What the governor could not realize until too late, however. was that he was not in London. where the very thought of royalty causes a weakness at the knees, but in Australia, where they can be and are loyal to the king without being worshipers of kingly ac- couterments and trappings. The king typifying Mother England as a handy protector of the colonies, meets the Australian wish and fills it full Moth ing of the spectacular is needed in that democratic country-certainly not $50,- 900 worth of hand kissing outriders, state balls and knee brooches.
 The earl meant well, but he carried his royal ideas to the wrong part Of the earth. The people there have not out grown them: the ideas were never present on that island continent. The people prefer the substance of liberty to reminders of the rule, grown shad- owy and frail, from which liberty has been wrested.-Detroit Journal.

the fashionable seaside resorts rich people patronize the kind that takes in dollar, and may pay back S100, al though it doesn't often do so. These are the aristOcrats. so to speak, of the gambling machines, and more oi them are sold in California than in any other state. 1 suppose it is because the coast people are a little looser with their cash or a trifle more sporty.
 Not long ago the factory with which I am associated sold 10000 worth Of these speculative machines to a party in Hong Kong. They were not intended for use in that city, but their exact location we did not ask. Chinameu are born gamblers, and they will go against any sort of a game a white man wil.
 The public tries it's best to beat the machines with slugs, bad coins, and the like. but their. construction is so perfect now that they defeat all swim ding attempts. Brass coins were for time the bane of the machine mak- CTS. for they nearly duplicated the ac- ton of nickel. But at length even brass was counteracted, and today they are nearly fraud-proof

BAND CONCERTS AT A THEATER

Not content with a summer cam paign in New York, Mir. John s. Duss. capitalist and bandmaster. has planned siege that will go a bit further than anything ever attempted by his rivals.
 MT. Duss has arranged for d theater which will rival ether play houses in New York, and in which he and his band will give Sunday night concerts during the season. He has taken a ten years lease of the Circle auditorium, at Sixteenth street and Broadway
 MT. F.. F. Jonnson will be the man. ager of the house. Mr. Johnson said last night that the former music hall will be made over into a first class the ater. Work will begin as soon as MT. Kalthenborn's concert season ends, and he hopes to open it on November 10. It will be a home for comedy.
 Mir. DGss will maintain the CrganiZa- tion of his band throughout the winter seasons. While he may fill outside engagements during the week days. his chief idea will be to give Sunday night concerts. He believes that his success during the last summer has indicated that New Workers will appreciate the innovations he has made in the direc- tion of increasing the range of expres- sion Of bands and, being wealthy, is willing to spend a small fortune. if necessary to promote public under standing and appreciation Of h.z work.

NEARLY DRAGGED TO DEATH
The Three Minutes Terrible Exper-
 fence of Frank Chambers.

Frank Chambers, who lives nine miles south of Tempe and is foreman of one of the Bartlett & Heard ranches, was in the city yesterday. He had very narrow escape recently from a painful death. and whenever he thinks of it yet it gives him a cold chill. He was engaged in irrigating and was rid ing from one point on the ditches to another on horseback. He dragged along a tapoon. a large piece of can vas used in stopping the flow of the water. The tapoon dragged along the ground fastened by a rope to the horn of the saddle. The end of the rope to which the tapoon was fastened was jusa a little back of the stirrup. In some way a loop was formed in the rope so that when MT. Chambers dis mounted he put his foot in it. The other foot reached the ground, but l cOnsidera ble part of the weight of Mir. Chambers was thrown upon the rope, enough to attract the notice of the horse. The animal was ordinarily gen. tie enough; SO much so that before his rider began to dismount he had thrown the reins on his neck.
 While Mr. Chambers was thus sus-
 
 pended the animal gave a sudden start. MT. Chambers sprang forward and seized the reins with one hand. The horse by this time had begun to run and MT. Chambers was dragged along by one foot and both hands. Now and then he was able to put the other foot on the ground, when he would hold the other try to disengage his foot. It was slow work, for the horse was moving more and more swiftly. The rope was fortunately a new one and stiff so that it did not fit closely about the ankle. At last when he had begun to despair and was about to give up to be being dragged to death, he managed to slip the loop from his heel. He said he thought the struggle lasted about three minutes, but it seemed to him three weeks had elapsed between the time he began to dismount and the time he concluded the performance.

dered President Mckinley lies at the
 door of society; that the murderer was | the product of society. So far from | this being the case, the fact is, Mr. 1 White declares, that American society
 had given Colgosz an opportunity such
 as neither he nor his ancestors before
 him had ever enjoyed, and at the very | moment when he committed his das- | tardly crime the president of the Unit 1 ed States was extending to him. not merely the form, but in the spirit of kindness, his right hand. To the ar gument that it is the nature of these people thus to act, we may answer with a similar argument for rattle snakes and cobras, but they are not tolerated in our families on that ac- count.
 Passing from this view of the evil to it's remedy, MT. White urges. as many have urged before. that the time has come when the great nations of the earth, if they are true to their duty, must join in such measures that the deepest wishes, best interests. and highest aspirations of their peoples shall no longer thus be brutally and cruelty thwarteI and nullifed by minute minority, and that men and women taking this view of government shall only be allowed to exercise if upon each other in some remote corner of our globe tenanted by themselves. If our own government, MT. White then suggests, would equitably ex- tinguish the native title to some of the thousand and more islands of the Phil ippines, and assign them to these usurpers, there would be new reasons for congratulating Admiral Dewey on his victory at Manila.
 The remedy MT. White suggests is not a valuable one. Coloniza ton of anarchists who may become assassins would prove as impossible as the colo niZation of tramps. While anarchy may not be a disease, but a crime, and a base crime at that, it breaks out like d disease Of most insidious character, impossible of detection until the harm is done. Czolgosz had never been heard of before he fired the shot at Buffalo, and had there been round up of anarchists month before the tragedy. or even week before it, he would not have been included in the capture. When Mckinley was killed Chicago imprisoned its anarchists, but the courts released them all. as it could not be proven they were guilty of any crime. Ambassador White has not aided in the solution of the problem by his colonization scheme, though he has emphasized the duty of every nation to so safeguard it's rulers that assas- sination will be made more difficult than it has been fin the past-Balti- more American.

IN THE WRONG MARKET.

The earl of Hopetoun has resigned his office of governor general of Aus tralia because the parliament of that commonwealth refused him a grant of $50 000 yearly in addition to the salary of the same size. The earl speaks bit
 terly Of the refusal, but from the point of view solely of an aristocrat out of place in a democratic country, he talks sensibly and forcibly. The grant he did not wish for himself, he says His own tastes are quiet He desired to make the office conspicuous, not for the sake of the man, but for the head the office typified. He represented a king and an emperor. and he would have had that fact strike the public

INsURING MORGAN's LIFE.

Some surprise has been manifested that whereas the insuring of the kings life is common in England at times of crisis and that at this time the English are insuring Morgan's lie to guard against the fall of stocks that would come inevitably were he suddenly to be taken away, there Is no Insuring of public mems lives or this side of the water. Even President McKinleys life was not insured in the days between the shooting and his death, though there was quite as much reason for insuring his as there was for insuring the kings just before the coronation date.
 The reason for the different practice
 in the two countries is simple. In England you may insure the life of any one, providing you can show that you are likely to lose by his death. but in America the laws do not recognize any such insurance, it being held that
 1t would be temptation to crime. In fact the criminal annals of nearly every state contain records or mur- deIs committed in order to obtain in surance money. The case of Holmes, the multi murderer, who was convicted and hanged in Philadelphia a few years ago, was of this sort.-Kansas City Star

MRS. EDDY'S FORBEARANCE.

To the Editor of The Republican,. Sir: An eminent lawyer of Baltimore. Md, John Henry Keene, has recently written and published a wonderful booklet entitled Christian Science and Its Enemies, in which he. startlingly condemns the pulpit's unjust attacks upon Rev. Mary Baker G. Eddy and Christian science.
 A representative of the press called on Mrs. Eddy to inquire as to her en- dorsement of this book. In reply she said: Upon reading the grand pref ace of Mir. Keene's book, I laid it aside from lack of time just then, and sent my compliments to the author with an order for said books. After perusing his book thoroughly 1 changed my opinion, not of the authors talents, scholarship and high intent (although l have never seen him) but of the ad- visibility of publishing the book: and immediately requested the parties to discontinue publishing it in it's pres ent form of treating the subject. I did this solely because the authors vehem- ence in denouncing the pulpits furious attacks upon me was not consonant with my Christian sentiment. 1t is written of our great Master whose life and teachings furnish my mod aI that When he was reviled he reviled not again.

AUSTRALIA RELIGIOUS REVIVAL

Australia has been looked upon by many persons as the land of wild and reckless living. But a change has come over it within recent years. Melbourne, especially, has lately been the scene of a noteworthy revival. In a great sim ultaneous ''mission," no less than 211 churches took part. It was preceded by a far-reaching league. in which some 15,GO0 persons participated. The mis- sioners numbered fifty. and the ser vices were held, not in the churches, but in town halls or tents. Denomi- nationalism was lost sight of, for the time being, and all Protestants gave themselves, heart and soul with the utmost unity and fullest cooperation. to the common work of soul-saVing.
 The popular response was spontane- ous and cordial. No building appeared to be large enough to hold the crowd ing audiences which assembled to hear the Word of Life. Even the exhibition building, an immense structure, was so filled at times, while crowds gathered about it, that it seemed, it is said. like "a besieged building" The theatres lost their fascination for the many, and the Christian service evinced the great CT drawing power.
 One writing of the depth and extent of the gracious work maintains that it established, as never before, ''how deep and strong is the religious instinct in the Australian character" and "how overwhelming is its response to any adequate appeal" Several facts are mentioned in support of this declara- tion. Australia has 'propOrtionately more churches than any other country, the number being 6,013, or 210 to every 100, 900 people. England has IA church es to every 100000 people. Russia has only 155 to the same number. Pres byterian.

 Consumptives need not worry about their future any mere. as the long looked-for cure for consumption has at last been found, and cure is now just as sure as in the simplest disease. To satisfy yourself of this you have only to write the Kalamazoo Tuberculosis Remedy Co. A Main street. Kalama- geo. Mich, of which the chairman is Mir. Q. K. BuckhOut. a noted member of the British Tuberculosis Congress and also of the International AssoCia- tiOn for the Prevention of TuberculC- sis. composed oi World-famCus men who have made consumption-its cure and prevention-a life study. This cure is something entirely new and is called "Antidotum Tuberculose. or the Cop per Cure, and is the only discovery we know of that absolutely kills all tuber- culCsis germs. which cause consump- ton, as, unless this is done. the disease cannot be cured As the name of the remedy tells, it's chief ingredient is cop per. which metal has at last been found to be the deadly enemy of the con sumption germ. "Antidotum TIbercu- lose is the original copper cure.
 You can tell if you have consump- tion by the coughing and hawking, by continually splitting, especially in the morning, when you throw yellow and black matter by bleeding from the lungs, night sweats, fiat chest, fever. weak voice, peculiar flushed complex ion, pain in chest, wasting away of the flesh, etc. Find out how the Cop per Cure kills the germs, then builds up the lungs, strengthens the heart, puts flesh on the body and muscles on the bones till the consumption is all gone and you are again a strong, healthy. robust man or woman.
 Don't doubt this, for the very same discovery benefited A. H. Dingley. a son Of Congressman Dingley of Ding ley tariff bill fame, who went west and south for relief and didn't get it. and came back with death staring him in the face. and was benefited by Anti dotum Tuberculose after all else had failed. It cured John Devries of Kal- amazoo of galloping consumption; Adrian de Die, 163S S. West street. of quick consumption; Paul de Smith of Dalton, Mich, and many cases which wasted away to skeletons.
 So don't give up hope, and dcn't Tpend your money in travel Attend to it right away, for consumption spreads to other members of the fam fly If you have consumption or fear you are predisposed to it, write tonight to the Kalamazoo Tuberculosis Rem edy Co, A Main street.
