Few features of the strange lands of
central Asia are stranger or more cele-
brated than the great Anu Daria, the
ancient Oxus, which has been attempt
ing once more to change Its bed. For
more than two and half centuries
this river has flowed into the Aral sea.

ing to ancient records, its destination
was the Caspian, while 1t has changed
its whole course In the same way yet
once again within the period Of which
there are records remaining in the later
classical authors. At the beginning OF
last month for the first time In several
generations the Anu Daria began to
break new ground again. Swollen by
unusual floods, it began to drive a
channel in the direction Of a prosper

cent years In the neighborhoed of a
great bridge ON the Transcaspian rail-.

engaged day and night for weeks past

amounted to many thousands Of dol

He Had Not InYenfed.

There Is no more effective weapon
against an evil minded man than ridi-
cule. 81 would sooner undertake to
disperse a mob, could l get it's ear, by
ridicule than by the bayonet," wrote
the Rev. T. p. Hunt, an old time tenn
perance lecturer, whose own quick wit
saved him frequently from rough
usage.
At one of his lectures. when the
cause Of temperance was new, Mr..
Hunt heard O gentleman, evidently Of
considerable influence, haranguing the
crowd against temperance. AS the lee
turer passed the door he heard this
man say:
'It is nothing but money making
scheme"
"Sir." Hunt replied quickly, "you do
not believe that, and can prove It,"
The man defied him to do SO.
"You are q stranger to me-" said Mr..
Hunt, "but judge from your appear
ance that you pay close attention to
your own affairs and are always look
ing for good investments. You are
hunting for good bargains. Is 1t not
soY
The man admitted that 1t was, and
some one in the crowd shouted, "He's
a regular skinflint~
"Well, gentlemen" resumed the lee
turer, ~ have been two days endeav-
oring to get him to Join the temper

money making business, wouldn't he

Eyes, yes" came shout FROM the
crowd. Mr.. Hunts oppanent escaped
as quickly as he could, while the lis
teners hailed him with laughter and
cries of Join, colonel! Join! Take
stock! Take stock! We won't believe

TRUSTS AND MONOPOLIES.

Trusts and all other unlawful CON-
binations of capital owe their birth
to Republican laws, and their growth
to the encouragem ent and protection
of the Republican administration. We
condemn President Roosevelt for
maintaining in the Office of Attorney
General Philander Knox, man who
was made and owned by the trusts,
and who did everything in his power
to further and protect these criminal
combinations.
