New Beet Machine.

W. E. Sleight of Lansing,
Michigan, has invented machine
which will prove of great value to
beet growers. 1t is a beet topper,
puller and blocker and it is de-
scribed by the inventor as follows:
"First there is attached to back
end Of tongue device TO throw all
stone and Jumps of dirt from row
of beets. This device can he
raised and lowered from operators
seat and it's action is governed by
two wheels that device rides upon.
Second, back of this device and
located in front end of main frame
there are four revolving knives
that are driven by an arbor of
bevel gearing and sprocket chain
from drive shaft to main drive
wheels from back part of main
frame. These knives are driven
at a rapid speed and cut the
ground Of row completely over.
The arbor of gearing rests or rides
upon two ten inch wheels that run
upon the ground, one upon each
side of row of beets and eight
inches apart. The knives are SO
arranged that they can be set SO
that they will cut upon a shear
cut and operator can set the
knives SO that they will cut beet
top off when he wishes. There is
a hand lever convenient to opera
tor so that enables him to raise
and lower the revolving knives at
his pleasure. Consequently can
cut off top of bee.s that have
grown out of ground when he
wishes to.
"Third, back of this arbor and
revolving knives there is pinioned
to main frame a beet litter con
structed with two reversible bars
or points. One bar, or point runs
upon each side of row of beets.
These points are arranged SO that
as they pass through the ground
they lift the dirt up and loosen the
beet and will not cut or break the
beets. And it is also arranged SO
that operator can manipulate same
from seat by hand lever.
Fourth. back of this shifting
device there is located a revolving
iron spiked reel or digger driven
by sprocket chain from main drive
shaft and speeded SO that its re-
volvipg movement digs ont and
knocks the dirt off of the beets.
"The machine can be operated
with two good sized horses or three
light ones. The machine has been
tested as will be seen below
w. E. Sleight e. Co, of Lansing,
Michigan, are now ready to take
orders for machines for the next
spring trade as the machines can
be converted into a blocker and
cu|tivator for spring work. The
use Of this machine will save par

INTERNATIONAL MARRIAGES.

The American peeress writes: 'I am the wife of a British peer: My fath- er's money was honestly made, by a man with brains and not by man with a grandfather. 1t made a vast difference in this Anglo-American con- tract, if you will so have 1t. Let us strike balance. and see who got the better of the bargain. My husband gave peerage, bad reputation, and an encountered estate, shady friends, endless debts and a broken constitu- ton. I gave a fortune, good health, and looks, revived prosperity, and hap piness!'' These burning words were drawn forth by an English trade against all American girls who have married into titled English families, ostentation, spendthrift tendencies, and Heaven knows what, besides. One sentence in this tory let ter against the American peeress, the other lady says: s'I accuse her of intro ducing the ape-like decadence 2of New York society where extravaganza is distinction, display Is nobility, and mo- toriety the ideal at which to aim," and any amount more, to the same effect. It is clear that two good ladies born on opposite sides of the great waters are using the public press to continue private quarrel. The whole thing reminds one of the picture of the two beats in Mick Finn, which bears the suggestive title: "Jawing." -Harper's Weekly. a

Peculiar Effect Along Uganda Rail-

Peculiar Effect Along Uganda Rail-
 road Where Animals Are Protected.
 ''The Uganda Protectorate" is the title or an excellent work in two vol umes from the pen of Sir Harry H. Johnston, the discoverer of that strange beast, the .'okapi," and fresh from the book presses of the Macmil- Ian company. What is of special in- terest to American engineers, raAlroad men, and naturalists is the chanter in which he describes the building and operation of the Uganda railroad, from the East African coast, inland, to the heart Of Uganda, a piece of the quick est railroad building on record In this chapter Sir Harry relates that the British have enacted the strfctest kind of game laws in Uganda; laws which prohibit. the killing of giraffes, rhino- ceroses, hippopotomi, opaki zebras, gnus, elands, etc, and that inasmuch as the authorities are better able to in- force these stringent laws along the line of the railroad than they are back III the remote interior, the game. with that instinct Of self preservation so well developed in wild animals, has nocked in great herds to the open prai- Tie lands along either side of the rail- road, paying not the slightest atten- ton to the shrill whistling of the To- comotive or to the rattle of passing trains.
 Thus, in travelling from the coast up to the capital of Uganda, the travel. CT observes from the car window the unique sight, to be seen nowhere else i'll the world, of q seemingly endless geological garden turned out to graze. Zebras, elands, koodoos, orafbas, gazel- les, sprfng-bucks, beisa, anteiopes, brindled gnus, hartbeasts, lSlipspring- CTS, invalas, harnessed antelopes, rhi- noceroses (these are plentiful along the line of road, considering they are never very numerous ill any locality, buff faloes, sessebys, elephants, with now and then an occasional giraffe, having all learned to look upon the railroad as a protection from prowling poach- CTS and hunters.
 Wild animals are very quick to dis cover and pick out protected localities, a fact which has been demonstrated in more ways than one in the Yellow stone park, the Corbin game preserve, and the Vanderbilt game preserves in the North Carolina mountains, so that, after all, the fact is not a surprising one. Tn one respect, however, the reader must prepare for disapolnt- ment. The old story of elephants and rhinoceroses putting locomotives off the track are emphatically denied by Sir Harry. While the wild animals req Iiza tha nrotection affoT q them by the railroad, yet at the S, le time they keep thir distance from the track, cros- sing and re-crossing only when trains are not in sight Tn fact the elephants and rhinoceroses are the shyest of all, the zebras and gnus taking the lead for boIdness and daring.

A well known writer who has beer keeping track of the president ane reading up the speeches he made or his recent trip asks some pointed ques- tions. Here are a few of them: Are you now willing, MT President, to say on the stump what you said of unioI workqnen in the Review of Reviews of September, 1896? You then said 'gThe men who object to what they style government by injunction are as regards the essential principles o1 government, in hearty sympathy with their remote skin-clad ancestors who lived in caves, fought one another with stone-headed axes, and ate the mammoth and Woolly rhinoceros. They are interesting as representing geo logical survival, but they are danger ous whenever there is the least chance of their making the principles of this ages-buried past living factors in our present life They are not in sympa- thy with men of good minds and sound civic morality" Why were you not repeating on your recent stumpin2 tour what you said Of the farmers and mechanics and workmen in you1 Ranch Life and the Hunting Trail? You there said that although the cow boys and rough riders might be ''bro- ken by weeks of brutal dissipation, ' yet ''they are much better fellows and pleasanter companions than small far mers or agricultural laborers; nor are the mechanics and workmen of a great city to be mentioned in the same breath.'' If you will show your sin. cerity, by repeating on the stump what you have said of free trade, of union workmen and farmers, we will not ask you about your sincerity as 8 civ il service reformer when you appoint ed Payne and Clarkson to high office, or if you think it entirely proper for the president, who every year must sign many bills affecting the railroads, to ride in private cars at the expense of these same railroads. Words are good when backed up by deeds, and only so," as you told us, MT President in one of your speeches last July. Il is up to you.

AN INTELLIGENT CONVICT.
Astonishes Michigan's Board of Par
 dons by Discourse on Criminology.

AStoniSheS M1ch1gan'S Board or Far
 dons by Discourse on Criminology.
 The Michigan board of pardons, while in Jackson recently, extended an invitation to one of the life prisoners to give them talk on criminology. He accepted with a discourse, which for depth, scholarly diction and oratorical inspiration, might, if produced in print, rank among the classics and become a text book on the subject treated. The members of the board listened in rapt astonishment to the learned thesis of the murderous spellbinder, who, in the course of his discussion, called atten- tion to the fact that of the 900 pris- oners now in the Jackson institution only about 40 per cent were there five years ago, the total number keeping, sometimes passing, the average. From this the convict lecturer argued that the prison, like the college, is subject to a change of classes. It proved to him that crime was not decreasing, and he put the question to the board: 'tIs all being done that could be done to improve the moral and social code?"
 Said the Honorable W. R. Kendrick, one of the board: ''The address was one of the most remarkable ever lis- tened to, and the peculiar circumstan- ces under which it was given by TO means detracted from it's interest or merit"
 The same authority states that the convict was in prison for the murder of the mayor of Adrian some years ago. This is probably an error, the convict criminologist doubtless being the man sentenced for life as the slay- CT of Lafawette Ladd, a prominent business citizen of the above city. Ladd awakened by the presence of an intruder in his bedroom, demanded to know who was there. The answer was a bullet wound in the breast, from which he died in few hours.
 A burglar about to undergo a four years sentence in Ohio was released from the. penitentiary to stand trial in Michigan for the murder. Before receiving sentence, on being asked the usual question whether he had any thing to say why the penalty of the case should not be inflicted in his case, the prisoner, protesting his innocence, delivered one of the most masterly ad- dresses to- which the court ever gave audience. The evidence in the case was chiefly circumstantial, the only other testimony being that of a tough character, now serving sentence in Marquette. (Mich.) Tribune

PLACED ON TRIAL.
Robert E. Fennell Accused of Larceny
of Two Watches.

Robert E. Fennell, a well-dressed young
man of apparent refinement, was placed on
trial today in Criminal Court No. 1 under
an indictment for larceny. He is accused of
the theft of a gold watch the propertv of
General Beath of Philadelphia, from the
Arlington Hotel October s last. and of a
watch, the property of a Mr. Coulter of
Chicago, from the Hotel Raleigh October I
Young Fennell was a guest at the Raleigh
about the time mentioned. That fact and
the fact that day or two later the stolen
property was found in his room In Balt,-
more hotel led to his arrest. 1t was testi-
fled, niwever, that when a detective entered
the hotel in Baltimore and arrested Fenrell
another man who was in the room at the
time dashed out and escaped. Fennen con-
tends that the man referred to called at his
room and was endeavoring to sell some of
the jewelry to the defendant when the de-
tective entered.
Attorney Tracy L. Jeffords appears for
the defendant, the government being rep
resented by Assistant United States Attor-
ney Taylor.

Commissioners are asked to approve the
bill in order that it may be included in the
naval appropria ton act.

was convicted in the Police Court today on
three charges Of larceny, and will spend

from them articles of jewelry to repair,
saying that he would return with them
later. He did not put in an appearance
when the required time had expired, and
complaints were made to the police. De-
tective Weldon, who was assigned to inves-
tigate the complaints, arrested Adams Sat
urday afternoon.
