Prof Hunter Succeeds Him as Ento-
mologist of Horticultural Society.
Prof E. A. Popenoe, Of the Agricul-
tural college at Manhattan, is no longer
entomologist OF the State horticultural
society. He viii not read the report on
entomology at next years annual meet
ing nor win he examine farmers fruit
trees for the San Jose scale or ofheT
enemies of the horticultrisst, except
IN a private capacity. Prof. s J. Hun
ter, of the State University at Lawrence
has been elevated to the place Of ento1n-
ologist.
1t is said that the retirement OF Prof.
Popenoe from the position. to which

the cases of many forms of disease or
parasitic growth only a specialist is
able to identify the cause of the trouble.
It has been complained that Prof. Pop
enoe was reluctant to make the exanl-
nations except where unusual induce
ments were offered, while Prof Hunter,

MAY QUIT THE SEA.
Prince Henry About to Leave Navy
for Politics.

New York, Jan. st is reported in
admiralty circles, says the Berlin cor
respondent of the American. that
Prince Henry will soon leave the navy
to become regent of the Brunswick
principality, the rulership of which is
claimed by the Duke of Cumberland
Having attained the highest possible
rank in the navy, Prince Henry's am
bition now is to try his hand at states
more of his time with his family, as
several of his children are in delicate
health.
He may also be DESTROYS of quitting
the navy because of the awkward sit

THE LATE NIAGARA FALLS.
Chasing It's Tail in Turbine Wheel
Like Gagged Squirrel.

The Toronto Globe sings an eloquent
lament over the. passing of Niagara
less march of civilization denuding for
ests, slaughtering wild animals and
birds, Strengthening out streams, level
ing hills and filling up valleys, and OBJ
literating the beauty and degrading the
grandeur of natures handiwOrk. It
the cataract of Niagara will be chas
ing its tail in a turbine wheel like
Gagged squirrel and declares that IF
the destruction of the cataract can
somewhere else before or would other
wise have grown up somewhere else, the
achievement will be hailed as sue
cess.
The only compensation our Canadian
contemporary sees is the possibility that
provision may be made for certain Nj
agara days in all future concessions It
says: 1T would be a splendid thing to
be able to announce that the Niagara
Falls would be turned on from q m.
till 1890 D. m. on a certain date, when
excursionists would have an emporium
ity Of seeing the great wonder of nature
in its original condition"
There is a vein of sad truth running
through the Globes satire. It Is likely
that the Niagara Falls has seen its best
day from the natural point of view and
that hereafter its mission may be to sup
ply power and make money for corpora
lions. That seems to be the fate of all
of natures handiwOrk which is not IN
Ger government control, and even that
part Of it is only saved from vandalism
by constant vigilance But how is it to
be prevented? Progress is the law Of
the world. and progress involves de-
struction on the one hand or radical
changes on the other. so that we may
have fuel and light. material for build
ing power for running street cars. pulp
for paper and supplies for numerous
other useful purposes Human necessi-
ties increase with the march Of civiliza-
ton and what were Injuries a century
ago are necessities now. We apparently
have reached that point where nature
must be called upon to do her part. It
would be better in some respects If we
could let nature alone. The world would
be more beautiful. and often healthier
than it is now. But, still. the question
comes back. what can be done about it?
The most that our Canadian contem-
porary can do is sternly to demand that
concessionaires' hands shall be kept off
the Horseshoe Falls and that only the
American shall chase its tail in a tur-
bine wheel like a. Gagged squirrel. Chi =

HELD DRUG STORE.
Robber With a Revolver Forced Clerk
to Turn Over Cash.

Kansas City, Mo, Jan. 5.-A robber

ably on guard.
