Growing Crop Not Hurt.

The recent cold snap didn t hurt
growing crops to any extent, ac.
cordlng to Director Bauer. There
was considerable apprehension on
the part of the farmers and queries
have been coming in rapidly Of
late from the North as to tho dam
age to the crops. Mr.. Bauer said
that from reports he had received
from stations all over the state he
felt authorized in saying that there
has been absolutely no danger to
crops. In some places thero had
been rather heavy frost but none
OF the crops had been far enough
advanced to be hurt. The fruit
has been rather helped by the cold
snap and there is now less proba.

Dousing the Ghm.

The lamplighter had been sopplng
up a goodly quantity of Barbary
Coast booze. The evening shadows
began to fall, but Pat was dead to the
world. The pedestrians of the Latin
quarter, which was Pats beat, were
compelled to wend their homeward
way in darkness, while the light of
the district noisily slumbered.
But for the lampIighter's son the
little world north OF Broadway might
have remained in darkness. Observ-
ing the inability of his dad to navi-
gate, the son went the route, carefully
lighting every gas get. This was s
o'clock at night.
About 10 o'clock the fuddled guar

Laws Delay in Germany.

A recent consular report from Berlin
contains some instructive data upon
the laws delay in Kaiser Wilhelm's
empire The Consul has this to say:
The highest judicial authority of the
German empire is vested in the Reichs-
gericht, a Federal Supreme Court es-
tahlished pursuant TO the law of April
II, 1877, as one of the institutions re-
sulting from the creation of the new
empire, or confederation of states, af-
ter the Franco-Prussian war of 1870
y. The accumulation of business in
the court is such that appeals cannot
reach a hearing short of from nine to
twelve months, and this condition is
declared by both laity and the legal
profession to be intolerable. Thus it
would appear as if the people of this
country are seemingly quick TO deplore
those partial denials of justice involved
in the delays thereof which the citi-
zens of the United States have endured
more or less patiently for many years.
The steady accumulation of busi-
ness in this court and a consequent
falling behind in its efforts to dispose
of such increase has led to renewed
propositions for the relief Of such con-
gestion, one or more Of which viii with
certainty be ultimately enacted into
national law The first suggestion
made was for a further increase in the
number of judges and of the sub-di-
visions Of the court, but it is urged
that the practical limit in that regard
has already been reached. If not over
stepped. Seemingly, the most practical
suggestion, and that which is likely to
prevail in the end, is a Limitation of the
right to appeal in all cases of mere
money judgments 10 those in which
the amount involved exceeds, say, 1000
marks SID, by which Limitation. ii is
reliably estimated, fully 80 per cent of
the appeals now sued out in such
causes will fall away. 1t is purposed
to raise this limit if occasion should
arise. AS a matter of abstract princi-
pie the latter suggestion IS opposed, be-
cause il would tend to make this tri-
bunal the rich mans court" from the
portals of which the man of small
means would henceforth be turned
away, and because the Importance TO
the individual of a legal controversy
should not be gauged by a mere resort
to marks and pfennigs. The whole
subject is being so thoroughly dis
cussed, both in the legal magazines Of
Germany and in conventions of law
yers. that as soon as the divergent
views shall have been crvstallized into
definite propositions action can be
looked for from the Reichstag."

co-EDs AND RACE SUICIDE.

THE question of suicide recently brought into
prominence i'll this country by President Roosevelt
and by the fierce denunciation by President Jacob
Gould Schurman OF Cornell University of graduates
of colleges who deliberately elect bachelordom is of
renewed interest in view of statistics lately compiled

as much at home in the water as was
Sherman.
One day while in submarine flight
il made a sharp turn and joyfully
swung into the kanaka's starboard
row of ribs. The seaI-brown sailor
thought swordfish had struck him
below the waterline and kicked fran
tically at the model which, urged
ahead by its little propellers, was
ramming him again and again. Sher-
man, sure that all his compartments
were flooded. retreated for the launch
while the torpedo bobbed serenely to
the surface. looking for more kanakas
TO lick in fair open fight.
Only by convincing the timid island
er that it was a swordfsh and not a
malicious baby torpedo that had
tried to mine him could I induce
Sherman to go on any more subma-
rine trial trips. But the captain
needed him and the flash of several
S5 pieces overcame his fear of fellow
swimmers down in the vastly deep.
So he passed the summer drinking
whisky on shore and herding that tor
pedo at sea. When the kanaka was
too drunk for scientific deep sea work
out in the bay, shifted into semi
bathing togs and acted as torpedo
navigator in the bathtub.

Block System Exhibit.

The German Government railroad ex-
hibit at the st. Louis fair shows the
block system and switch signals now
in use in Germany. More than 1900
feet Of track. in the construction Of
which both iron and wooden ties were
used. have been laid. There are sta
tiOn house, two switch towers and one
intermediate block signal post One
of the switch towers is fitted with me-
chanical and one with electrical signal
apparatus. The block system makes
it impossible for a train to run into
an open switch or for one train to run
down another between stations. The
double track system prevents colG-
sions. BY means Of electrical appar-
atus all switches except the one open
ing the desired track are locked, max
ing an error on the part of the switch
man impossible. As the last wheel Of
the train passes. the switches are all
released by rail contact, making way
for the next train. At intervals OF
about seven miles are placed inter-
mediate block posts. with a similar
signal and switch apparatus By auto
matte arrangement the levers are all
locked. so that one train cannot leave
the station until the train ahead has
passed the next post. thus preventing
one train from running down another.
All the material used in construction
was brought from Germany.-New

The Kite in Life SaVing.

OF late the kite has emerged from
the position Ct a mere toy, and has
been successfully employed for meteor
illogical observations at high attitudes
A still more recent application of the
kite principle is as a life-saving ap-
paratus to be carried on shipboard, its
particular duty being to establish COM
mUnication between a stranded vessel
and the adjacent shore. 1t stands to
reason that ship in this position gem
orally has the assistance Of the wind
in carrying anything shoreward, and IT
would be far easier to launch kite
under such conditions than it would
be TO fire a rocket in the reverse di-
rection.
The kite carries guide rope and
contains in a pocket a set of signals
and instructions. 1t is also furnished
with apparatus for telephonic com
munication between the crew and their
wOuld-be rescuers.
This life-saving kite is the invention
Of Count Brossard, who is to be re-
garded as an amateur rather than a
professional man of science. Critics Of
his quaint appliance, while admitting
its general utility, have questioned
whether telephonic communication
would be possible in a bowling tempest
The kite is said, however. TO have been

storm which took place near Neck
City a few days ago: j. ". Scott was
not at home on the night of the storm
last week. having gone to a neighbOr's,
some little distance away, and was pre-
vailed upon to stay all OF Thursday
night on account of the threatening
weather. When he arrived at what
should have been his home the next
morning he found that his new two
room house had entirely disappeared
and not a trace of it was visible any
where in the vicinity. His shaving
mug and brush, which were in the
house at the time OF the storm, have
been found in a tree two miles away"
