A Rare Old Clock.
An exchange says:


Peterborough Cathedral has the
Oldest working clock in England.
1t was erected about 1920, and is
probably the work of monastic
clockn1aker. 1t is the only one
now known that is wound up over
an old wooden wheel. This wheel
is about twelve feet in circunfer-
ence, and the galvanized cable,
about 500 feet in length, supports
the leaden weight of three caret-
weight, which has to be wound up
daily. The clock chamber, some
12O feet high, where the sunlight
has not penetrated for hundreds OF
years, and the winding IS done by
the light of candle. The going
is the great tenor bell OF the cathe-
dral which weighs tilirty-two caret-
weight, and II IS struck hourly by
an eighty pound hammer. The go
ing and striking parts of the clock
are some yards apart, communion
ton being by a slender wire. The
clock has no dial The time is
shown on the main whesl of the
escapement, which goes round
once in two hours.

the Rio Grande. The cotton looks
to us just ike that gotten from our
plant, and Mr.. Lesesne says the
tree so closely resembles the cot
ton stalk that it might easily be
taken for stalk of several years
growth uninjured by the cold.
The mild winters of the Rio
Grande permit the cotton plant to
grow from year to year and in this
fast may be found the explanation
of this talk of the so called cotton
tree The cotton tree after all may
be but an old cotton stalk grown
to such proportions as to merit the
name of tree.-Cuero Star.

OUR INDUSTRIAL PROGRESS.
Secretary Cortelyou on the Govern
ment's Relation to Commerce.

A dispatch from Philadelphia last night
| says:
convention of national Importance, es-
| pecially to industrial interests, began here
| today, the occasion being the eighth an
| nual meeting of the American Academy Of
| Political and Social Science The chair was
occupied by Frank A. Vanderlip. former
| assistant secretary of the treasury, and
| now vice president of the National City
| Bank, New York.
The subject under consideration during
| the session is THE Government in Its Re-
| lation to Industry" which is subdivided
and taken up in detail. The first branch Of
| the topic was THE Government Regulation
| of Banks and Trust Companies" and adj
dresses were delivered by William Barrett
Ridgely, controller of the currency. and
others.
The annual address was delivered tonight
by Secretary George b. Cortelyou of the
Department of Commerce and Labor.
Secretary Cortelyou said:
I'm these prosperous times we hear much
of the term commercialism.' 1t is fire.
quently referred to as though in itself it
represented a misguided national spirit or
tendency of our people to lower their
standards There is. undoubtedly, a COM
mercialism that would dwarf the national
life; that would place business success
above business honor; that would contem-
plate the profits of trade without the ethics
of trade; and that IL followed to a large
extent, would make the American name
a shame ana reproach among the ma
lions.
But there is another commercialism that
is founded upon the traditions of the faith
ers; that seeks to secure the markets Of
the world by the American traits of thrift
and fair dealing; that weaves into every
fabric, prime essential a moral fiber,
that combines the fine qualities which have
made the names of our really great mer-
chant princes and leaders in the business
world synonyms of honor and integrity.
THAT is the commercialism with which
you and wish to ally ourselves.
Speaking of the government part in
the extension of trade, he said:
1.-The Department of State in negotiating
treaties promotes the development of COM
merce, while the work of the consular serv-
ice, the results of which now given to
the public daily by the Department of Com
merce and Labor, is almost exclusively de-
voted to commercial interests.
In conjunction with all the departments
Of the government Mr.. Cortelyou declared
that "the Department of Commerce and
Labor will contribute its share of the main
tenace of our commercial and Industrial
pre-eminence."
The Secretary discussed to considerable
extent the work of the Department of Com
merce and Labor.
Controller Ridgely spoke on Govern,
ment Control of Banks and Trust Com.
panies," and gave an elaborate dissertation
of both subjects.

Poison in Tobacco Smoke.
From the Chicago Record-Herald.


Nicotine has long held the bad reputation
of furnishing the poisonous element in to-
bacco smoke. Against 1t have been center
ed all the COMBINATIONS of the enemies of
the weed" Leave out nicotine, and tracts
and lectures by the thousand become anti
quated. Just this. however, is what staff
writer for the London Lancet believes he is
justified in doing He admits that the whole
subject of the poisonous effects of tobacco
is involved in confusion because of the
great completely of the products of the in
CEN plete combustion of tobacco. Neverthe-
less he thinks that the gas. carbon monox-
ide, is responsible for all the harm that to-
bacco can do. To begin with he points out
thar the amount of nicotine in tobacco is
very small-in mild tobacco rarely over
per cent 1t occurs as an organic salt,
which probably breaks up on combustion,
giving volatile product. 1t is doubtful,
however. whether more than one-seventh of
the nicotine in tobacco ever so much as
reaches the lips of the smoker.
On the other hand. ordinary tobacco
smoke contains many compounds, which oo-
cur in far larger quantities than nicotine
possibly can, and of which some are I'M
dcubtedy poisons. One ounce of tobacco,
smoked in the form of cigarettes, gives, for
example, one-ffth of pint of pure CARBON
monoxide gas, and probably more when
smoked in pipes or cigars. This gas, If In
hailed, would be taken up rapidly by the
blood. and would produce symptoms very
similar to those of nicotine. 1.-THE trembling
of the limbs and the hands, the dizziness
and stupor, the disturbance of the nerve
centers and of the circulation, palpitation
on slight effort, and the feeble pulse may
be the indications of either carbon monox-
ide or nicotine poisoning The writer in
the Lancet experimental by shaking up a
few mouthfuls of cigarette smoke with a
few drops of blood, diluted In water Al
most Immediately the blood assumed the
pink color of blood containing this gas.
while the spectroscope later confirmed the
presence of carbon monoxide. With smoke
from cigars and pipes the effects were still
more marked.
1t may be that as the result of further ex-
periments we shall have, to revise our pres
ent ideas about nicotine Butssthe smoker
clearly will be no gamer in peace of mind
from that fact.

CHAPTER II.


. One night was riding alone toward Hor-
ton Pen. A large moon hung itself up above
me like an enormous white plate. Finally
the sloping roof of the Ferry Inn, with one
disheveled palm tree dropping over 1t, rose
into the disk. A mass of objects, picked
out with white globes, doomed In the high
shadow of the inn, standing motionless.
They resolved themselves into barouche,
with four horses steaming great deal,
and an army of negresses with bandboxes
on their heads. A man in European clothes
was silhouetted against the light in the
doorway. He held n full glass very care
fully and started to descend. Suddenly he
stopped emotionally. Then he turned half
right and called back, Sir Charles! Sir
Charlesi Here's the very man! 1 protest.
the very mani" There was an interrogative
roar from within. 1t was like being out
side lions cage
I was hurrying off the back of my horse
when the admiral came out onto the steps.
Someone lit a torch, and the admiral be-
came dark, solid figure, with the flash
of the gold lace on his coat He stood very
high in the leg: had small white whiskers
