The State, Not the People.

FIbert Hubbard, the only ore of the three hundred and one Philistines to escape the deadly strokes of Sampson has ex-osed himself to another attack. He has just passed compl- ment upon the state of California which will make his name execrated in all the parlors of the Native Sons and Daughters of the Golden West.
 MT. Hubbard, spsaking of the town ot Riverside, observed that with the eX- ception of Brooklinc. Mass, it con- tained. according to its population, more milliolaires than any other town in the United States. He contrasted the present condition of the town and vicinity with the conditions of less than a quarter of a century ago in which the main feature of the land- scape was a succession of barren hills. Mir. Hubbard was told, as every man who visits an irrigated region is told, that the change had been effected by the miracle of bringing together the land and water. He finds, though, that the prosperity of that region has been brought about by the aid cf other agen- cies than land and water. A combin- ation of capital and labor has had great deal to do with the making of the improved condition and he finds also that beside the land and the water and the capital and the labor there was an- other necessary ingredient, the brain of man.
 When one comes to think of it he will agree that MT. Hubbard is right; all the Native Sons and Daughters will agree with him tC this point They will net agree with him, though. when he proceeds to say that 1t was necessary to import the brains from Yankee land for there were none of the right kind in the original inhabitants of Califor- nia. the Indians, nor in the later dom- inant race the Spaniards. nor in the st'n later dominant race, the argonauts and their descendants, the native sons and daughters. The argCnauts had done nothing for the building up of the state They had delved on the sur face for gold and some of them had learned to cultivate the soil after the thriftless manher cf the Indians and the Spaniards.
 They had, it is true. made known something Of the glories of the eli mate SO that the attention of Yankees with brains was attracted and thus was the way paved for the great ness of California.
 Mir Hubbard adds, with an evident intention to insult, that the Native Sons and Daughters of the Golden West have had about as much to do with the building up of the state as the Daugh- ters of the American Revolution had to do with putting the kibosh on Lord Cornwallis at Yorktown.
 That they were born in so favorable a state MT. Hubbard regards as a happy accident for which they should not claim credit, seeing that they have not contributed to the more prosperous condition of today

GOO in quarterly dividends by this Col orado company, no doubt affects hun dreds of persons hundreds of miles from Colorado City-just as the anthra- cite coal strike carried distress, only in a larger measure, to tens of theusa nds of homes, thousands of miles distant from the coal fields.
 In view of all these things, the pub lie at large could not serve itself better, or do the cause of American labor a greater favor, than by entering heart and soul into support of the new movement for organization among American employers. It would mean the prevention of enormous losses, lower prices and a more general and perfect industrial peace.

Enormous Strike Losses.

The seriousness of the Colorado la bor disturbances throughout the year now drawing to it's close gets into sharper evidence and comes painfully home to a much larger number of per- sons than heretofore in the announce ment made last week that the United States Reduction and Refining com of one and one-half per cent on it's $6,000,000 Of preferred stock, due next month. This action by the directorate of the company comes as a direct re- suit of the miners strikes in and about the Cripple Creek region. Inability to secure ores has caused the closing of one of the companyss reduction plants. and another has been running for months past on half time from the same cause. And now the reduced earnings, in consequence of these dis turbed conditions, are disclosed in the company's finances, and the s9O, ,OOO that would ordinarily be distributed in January among the numerous and widely scattered stockholders of the s6,0oO,oO0 in preferred stock is not forthcoming. It is not there-has not been earned.
 The tremendous loss entailed by strikes of any considerable magnitude is never quite fully understood by the public at large. Their first effect is felt only in their immediate neighbor- hood, and newspaper readers at dis tant points generally see only the most meagre accounts of the affairs. It is only when the losses thus brought about come straight home to stockhoId- is apparent. The passing of this $9O,-

CHAMBERLAIN COUGH RENE
DY is intended especially for coughs,
colds, Group, whooping cough and in
fluenza. It has become famous for
its cures of these diseases over a large
part of the civilized world. The most
fiattering testimonials have been re-
ceived, giving accounts of its good
works; of the aggravating and persist
ent coughs it has cured; of severe colds
that have yielded promptly to its
soothing effects, and of the dangerous
attacks of Group it has cured, often
saving the life of the child. The
extensive use of it for whooping cough
has shown that II robs that disease of
all dangerous results. It is especially
priced by mothers because it contains
nothing injurious, and there is not the
least danger in giving it, even to ba-
bies. It always cures and cures quick

of his wife's death was made on the

were that Commander Tucker and

arriving from the west at about the

killed in a wreck" Commander Booth
Tucker staggered, raised his hand to
his forehead and exclaimed: God
help me; is it true?" and fell in a
swoon. Pitifully moaning and wiring
ing his hands, he seemed for time
beside himself He asked over and
over if the statement was true, ap-
pearing not to believe it. For an hour
then he sat with his head bowed in
his hands. AS soon as he had re-
vived sufficiently, the telegram an
nouncing the death of his wife was
read to him. The dispatch was from
Ensign Dammess, secretary to Mrs.

KANSAS CITY, Oct./ 29.-Mrs. En-
ma Booth-Tucker, consul in America
of the Salvation Army, wife of Com
mander Booth-Tucker, and second
daughter of William Booth, founder
of the Army, was killed in the wreck
of the eastbound California train No.

miles east of Kansas City at 10 o'clock
last night. Colonel Thomas c. Hol-
land, in charge of the Salvation Army
at Amity, Coo, was fatally injured.
Twenty others were injured. The
dead and injured were taken to Fort
Madison, Ia.
Mrs. Booth-Tucker was rendered I'M
conscious and died within half an
hour after being injured. Her skull
was fractured and she was injured in
ternally.
The first details of the wreck were
obtained this morning by the Asso-
ciated Press over the long-distance tel
ephone from Marceline through DR.. D.
B. Putnam, who had been at the scene.
The wrecked train left Kansas City
last evening. 1t ran into an open
switch just outside of Dean Lake.
Only the three last cars, two Pullmans
and a diner, We're wrecked. The Pull
mans were completely demolished
while the diner was badly damaged.

foundation and when the train crew
reached the scene, both Mrs. Booth

found unconscious. They, with the
other injured, were after much delay
taken to the depot platform a few
blocks distant, where everything pos
sible was done for them. Neither
regained consciousness and within
half an hour the noted Salvation Army
leader succumbed to her injuries. For

This agent has been resorted to as a preventive
rather than cure. So limited has been the ex-
perience with it, and indecisive the results
at least, until recently-that 1t has been diff
cult to Judge Of the value Of the system. In
recent number Of THE Lancet" though, Profess
sor Wright, Of Netley, sums up the present
state Of knowledge on the subject, and reaches
a rather favorable decision
One embarrassment which besets the task OF
comparing the mortality of inoculated with that
Of the unprotected is that in some instances
the exposure to infection has been greater than
in others. Professor Wright hesitates. there
fore, to strike general average However, he
cites only three instances in which there
not perceptible diminution of the death rate
among the inoculated. These were afforded by
the staffs Of two hospitals at Pretoria and by
the City Imperial Volunteers. In all other
corded tests he finds frequency at least twice
as great among the uninoculated as among the
inoculated. In some cases there was a four
fold or skiold reduction. He even finds a
twenty -eightfold reduction.
Professor Wright points out that there is a
certain risk in all protective inoculatons. For
a short time, at least, 1t may leave the system
open to infection at period when it needs pro-
lection more than usual. Such would be the
case where the patients power of resistance
was reduced for any cause.

TRANSPARENCY OF COMETS
MEASURING THE OBsCURING EFFECT ON
A STAR AT HARVARD OBSERVATORY. ;

Striking evidence of the gauZy texture OF
comets tails is given In a circular just issued
by the Harvard College Observatory, describing
an attempt made to discover how much star
would be obscured while covered by such a veil.
It was foreseen last autumn that on the night
of October 1914 the nucleus of the comet
known as "1902b" would pass within one minute
of certain star whose brightness had previ-
ously been determined The diameter Of the
coma, or hairy trail, was five or six minutes
That appendage was big enough to overlap the
star for twenty or thirty minutes at least.
Astronomers in rating the brightness or stars
rarely express their results in fractions smaller
than tenths. However, since number of sue
cessive observations may show trifing apparent
differences, average will often be given IN
hundredths Most people see at a glance
that first magnitude star is brighter than one
of the second magnitude, and with a little prac-
tice pick out stars that rank about halfway
between. When it comes to differences of only
a tenth Of magnitude. though, only the ut
most skill, combined with special training, can
perceive them.
The particular star that afforded the test in
question rated at magnitude 712. Begin
ming at about fifteen minutes before the closest
approach of the nucleus to the star, a series of
observations was made with instrument
called photometer, whose function is to meas
brightness. 1t should be added that thac
branch Of work is one for which Harvard has
been famous. In period of less than three
hours eight groups of measurements were made.
sixteen observations composing a group and
affordng fair average. One group taken when
the nucleus was two minutes from the star,
showed a diTninution in brightness of .O1 of
a magnitude. The next group, representing the
closest approach q minutes). gave an appar-
ent diminution of O4. Shortly afterward,
when the interval was only two minutes again,
the average indicated actual excess Of .O3
of a magnitude the normal brightness,
while with an interval of four minutes the mean
of sixteen settings identical with the ordi-
nary rating of the star.
These figures represent close approximations
and not absolute fact, but they are highly sig
nificant. They show that cometary trail which
was probably hundreds of thousands Of miles,
perhaps millions of miles, long, and which was
looked at lengthwise diagonally, was not able
to obscure a star enough for the effect to be
barely perceptible with special optical instru-
attaches to the measurements. The average
density of the material must have been incom-
parably lower than that of terrestrial fog.
