STATUE TO THOMAS VIM DoRR


Rhode Hand is decorously agitated oves
the proposition of Gov. Garvin to place a
statue of Thomas Wilson Dorr in the
state house The theory Of government
in Rhode Iseland scarcely contemplates
the choice of a governor who is opposed
to the dynasty of the reigning machine.
But in view Of the remote possibility Of
such an event. il has been cleverly de-
vised that the chief executives power
is limited principally to the making Of
suggestions. Gov. Garvin finds himself
therefore in "A position where his time is
open and, his mind free TO interest the
people Of his state with new ideas. This
Of tke Dorr statue is one of them. Dorr
was man with good purpose. and
without the patience to work and to wait
Tor its orderly adoption. He wanted to
make the electoral franchise freer than
81 was in the thirties and forties. and he
helped TO get the state of Rhode Island
into condition where it had two rival
governors at once. he being one of them
Then came what is known in the his
tory of the state as the "Dorr war" a
series of turbulences having far less re
semblance- to real war than the riots
which are not common as part of strikes
Dorr came cut second in the contest was
convicted Of high treason. srent a few
years IN Jail. and was released on an
act Of amnesty. amid the applause of
the people. TO ind in operation the most
Of the reforms for which he had con-
tended. He dide not long after. with the
faint OF treason stiil upon him. but his
{
spicuous in Rhode Island history. while
the very estimable gentleman. Samuel "
King. who was his successful rival for
the governorship Is known only 20 the
encyclopedias. For such reasons as
these, Gov. Garvin wants Dorr statue:
10 which il IS responded that DoTr was
traitor and that treason should not
thus be made honorable. The contro-
versy. fortunately. is not likely 10 reach
even the proportions of the mimic Dorr
rebellion and II may confidently Re PRE-
dicted that Gov, Garvin viii not have
his own way. Is h mostly DOGS not Be
sides il is not violent presumption
that II Dorr could take a Peep at The
existing condition Of the suffrage in
Rhode Island. ne would advise the post
ponement Of the statue Until his lea
OF extending the risht 20 vote Is coupled
with a wider sense Of its seriousness

There was a dog fight going on tusa
around the corner out of sight," Cx-
planned the man who was telling the
story, and who always sees the funny
side OF life. Back of me, coming as
fast as his little legs could carry him,
WAS small dog not much bigger than
> rat. As q matter Of fact the biggest
thing about him was his bark, but his
every action seemed to say: oh, do
hope that scrap won't be over before
I get there!' l and that small dog
came in sight of the fight at the same
moment. There were six dogs in the
mix-np, and not one of them was
smaller than q calf. The way that
small dog suddenly stopped, took one
look and then turned and legged it for
home caused me to laugh aloud. He
acted as if he had suddenly remem-
bered that it wasn't his day to fight. {"

Strange Graft.

A traveller says: The strangest
craft have ever seen were the baIsas
of Lake TiJicaca IN Bolivia and Peru
These balsaa are made OF an aquatic
plant growing in the waters of the
lake. The principle on which they
are constructed by the Aymaras In
dians proves their ingenuity. \ bale
of hay naturally floats in the water,
and according 10 the quantity Of
dried grass used in constructing the
boat do they control the disDIace-
meDt or carrying capacity. Thesa
boats are likewise fitted with mast
and sail, and IN some instances carry
from eight to ten persons. The In
dians travel long distances over this
vast inland lake. the surface of which
is on a level with the summit of the
Jungfrau of the Swiss Alps."-N. Y.

SCIENCE SIFTINGS.

Cholera has practically disap-
pcared from Egypt.
Through the liberality of George
W. Perkins, of New York. an expedi-
tion was sent by the New York
botanical garden to Nova Scotia and
Newfoundland. The expedition has
secured 10000 specimens Of over 1900
species of plants. \ third of the
specimens are marine plants.
The recent expedition sent to
north Montana by the New York
Botanical garden has done much in
the interest of scientific botany
Many Alpine forms of plants were
discovered. Ample statistics were ST.
cured establishing the variation of
plant life caused by temperature and
latitude, and Of the general vertical
distribution of fora.
Recently at an auction sale IN
London which was iudiciOusly adver-
tised. an egg OF the grea; aux was
put mp which, after some lively bid
ding. was knocked down for $l.26O.
That Is said to be very good price.
But aux eggs have been sold in Lon.
don for as much as $500. The rea-
son for these enormous prices is nat
urally 10 be found in the scarcity Of
the eggs. The bird is extinct, and
not over 20 of its eggs are in exist
ence.
Hungarian dentists and chemists
claim to have discovered a valuable
local anesthetic. an alkaIoid. nerv-
ocidine, the hydrochloride of which
is stated TO have similar properties
to cocaine, but to produce much
more lasting ancsthesia. The base
is obtained from an Indian plant,
"Gasu Basu," She properties Of the
leaves of which were first discovered
by d. Dalma. who successfully en-
ployed them in painful pulpitis with
such good results that he reported
that the drug might displace arsenic
for dental purposes.

ASIATIC NOTES.

The smallest Towering plant is a
kind of Indian duckwred. known as
Wolffia microscopica. Each plant has
two flowers.
Next to collins the greatest use
for lumber in China is in building
boats, and it is safe to say that the
number Of crafts runs into millions
Water is so scarce in the Japan
ese island Of Oshima that il is the
custom for a bride to take a large
tub of drinking water with her to
her new home as kind of dowry.
In East Indian schools mental
arithmetic is a vastly more serious
matter than ii is in the schools Of
this country. Catch questions are
numerous. and pupils of ten years
are taught TO carry the muItiplica-
tiOn table mp to forty times forty.
There is a reminiscence of very
old epitaph, says the London Globe,
in the statement Of an Indian news
paper that in northern India tomb
stone stands to the memory of
good missionary, with these words:
''He translated the Scriptures into
Pushtoo. and was accidentally shot
by his khitmutghar. Well done, thou
good and faithful servant"

Chief Kiaukia, last of the once
great Delaware Indian tribe, has just
died in his little log hut on the banks
Of the Raritan, near Lebanon, Pa.
In compliance with his olt-expressed
wish the old man was buried in the
shadow of a great elm tree which
stood near his cabin door. Under
this tree his forefathers used to
sit in solemn council. Kiaukia, who
was in his ninety-seventh year, was a
noted warrior in his youth.

OIL of RattIers.

In Pennsylvania the oil of rattle
snakes is preserved most carefully as
a liniment especially good for sore
Joints and for rheumatism. In pro-
curing the oil the dead snake is nailed
head and tail to a board and cut open.
The fat is taken out and laid upon a
cloth in the hot sun, from which the
filtered OIL drips into a jar. From fear
that the reptile may have bitten itself.
the clear oil IS tested by dropping a
portion of it into milk. If it floats in
one globule ii is regarded as unaffect-
ed. If, on the other hand. it breaks
into beads and curdles the milk, it is
judged to be poisonous and thrown
away.-N. Y. Tribune.

parachute exhibitions at Hoag park.
Hillman's balloon, massive hot air
one, was being prepared for the aft
ernOOn exhibition, and Ward and 9TH
ers were assisting. Everything
ready, the professor gave the word,
the balloon was released, and swift
ly mounted into the air with the pro-
fessor hanging to the parachute.
Ward started 10 get out of the way
as the balloon was released, but his
left foot caught in one Of the guy
ropes, and, to the horror of the sew
er8l thousand spectators, he was car
ried into the air suspended head
downward. His weight held the bal
loon on its side, in danger of an inn
mediate collapse and certain death
to both men. Hillman acted quickly.
Ward dangied from the balloon about
ten feet above the aerOnaut, and be-
yond his reach. If the balloon was
brought to an upright position there
was some chance for Ward, so, after
few words of advice as 10 how TO
secure himself and draw himself up
right, Hillman released the parachute
