Assurance of prosperity on the

sLUM CHILD IN COUNTRY.
Poor City Children Possess Queer
Ideas of Production of Milk and
Other Farm Produce.

At luncheon given by Mrs.
Alice Barber Stephens, the illus
traitor, at her new home at MOylan,
the talk turned for awhile to the
various charitable societies that
gave slum outings in the country
in the summer, says the New York
Tribune.
Remarkable instances were mar
rated of slum children's ignorance
OF country life-their idea that
milk was an extract of the milk
weed, that eggs came from the egg
plant, and that mush was a prod
uct of the mushroom, and so on.
Those instances" said Mrs.
Stephens, "are old and we'll
known. But let me tell you of a
new one that happened last sum
.mer.
"a little east side boy was on his
first country excursion. He lay
on the grass in a peach orchard
making a chain of daisies and but
tercups. Across the blue sky a
line of birds darted, and his hos
tess, young woman, said:
Look up. Look up, Tommy.
See the pretty birds flying through
the air.
Tommy looked up quickly, and
then he said in a compassionate
tone:
"'Poor little fellersI They
amt got no cages, have they""

Horrors Of American RailrOadinu.

The horrors of modern warfare
sink into insignificance when COM
pared with the horrors of modern
railroaGing in the United States.
An army larger than the Union
forces at Gettysburg is killed and
wounded every year on the railroads
of the United States. During the
year ending June 80, 1904, there
were l0,046 people killed and S4.-
lob people injured by accidents on
American railways. IOf the killed
AL were passengers, and of the in
jured 9, iii were passengers. The
number of employees killed was 81
632, and the number Of injured en-
ployes was 6S,067.Y Six thousand
of the slain were neither passengers
nor employees, probably the greater
number being killed at grade cross
ings or while walking the tracks.
This shocking causaulty list would
cause a shudder of horror if it oc-
CURED in modern battle, but as
the casualties occur in small num-
bers every day We have grown cal

public take an interest in the mat
Ger and demand greater safety for

Rev. Appleton Grannis, of st.
Michael's, is a member of a GER
tain New York club largely made
up of clergymen, and, in the opin-
ion of the World, is perhaps the
only member thereof who would
be willing to divulge the follow
ing story:
"Our clubhouse was torn up for
repairs last summer" he said, the
other day, "and another club near
Central park kindly offered us hos
pitality until our building should
be again tenantable. This second
club was made up of men more

Everything booms when the farmer
has good crops and is selling them
for good prices.
And that is the condition of the
American farmer in this blessed
year, the fifth of the Twentieth
Century. In the West he has har-

laid by corn that promises to equal
or exceed the record crop of 1902,
which was more than $500, 900, 900
bushels; &c has grass and clover
and alfalfa, he has fat cattle, hogs
and sheep, turkeys and chickens

Occasionally some alleged friend of Judge Burpee attempts to run in poli- ties in connection with the row that is being made over his alleged short age. The older and wiser heads of the republican party, however, steer clear of such an idea. for they know that if ever man received fair show from the democratic party it has been Judge Burpee. Some of his strongest Op- ponents. as was shown at the hearing in Hartford the other day, are repub- licans. Then again some of his friends are trying to put the blame for the shortage on clerks and assistants. There is only one way to get at the root of all this mix-up The city should present Judge Burpee bill for what he owes. If he doesn't pay it. treat him as any other man would be used who refused to turn over funds that were misappropriated
