ATK|NSON'S
SUCCESSOR
The Capitol is Full of
Gossip and of
Aspirants.

The air is full of gossip about the
instruction Atkinson. and the Capitol
corridors have been full of candidates
too. during the past few days, but as
yet there is no tangible line upon who
will be the choice of the Governor for
the place. Governor Carter said yes
terday that he was considering the
matter of the succession, and that it
was about the most difficult appoint
ment that he had yet been called upon
to consider.
Very probably that is the fact. It
is an appointment that should be Civ
en- the most careful consideration. The
position is a most exacting one to fill.
requiring a man of peculiar talent and
great executive ability at the same
time. The particular combination of
qualities needed is most rare. OF course
the usual standing candidates. who bob
up when there is anything at all to
give out. from sewer inspector to Cir
cult Judge, are mentioned for the
place." but in this instance nobody
takes the mention seriously enough to
ask TIE IONcIHOI dDoul II.
1t is pretty generally understood that
there will be something of a clean
sweep in the school department, when
the new Superintendent is chosen, as
the new head of affairs will want to
place the subordinate responsibilities
in hands that he will have confidence
in. The present force, indeed, will
probably desire to be relieved, and the
s., trr,o nf4 h. 90,
ers of Education. 1t is even said that
the Commissioners have already dis
cussed the ACCESSIBILITY of sending their
designations to the Governor, but as
yet have come to no decision.
The Judd report has not yet been
drawn, and will not be, according to
Mr.. Judd, until the shorthand report
ers have Transcribed their notes. 1t
is therefore impossible to say just what
the report will be. Mr. Judd had
consultation with Governor Carter yes
terday morning, and it is thought the
matter was discussed at that time.
The legislative joint investigating
committee held another session yester-
day morning, with Atkinson as a wit
ness. Much of the questioning was
with reference to Grand Jury recon-
the having pe6E
gone through with. Atkinson was ask
ed his opinion about various changes
which the Grand Jury thought would
improve the department.
Perhaps the names that have been
most mentioned, in the serious sense,
for the Atkinson succession, are those
of School Inspector Baldwin and Prof.
A. M. Merrill, of Mills Institute. But
there are other names, and three OF
the possible candidates have had in
terviews with the Governor relative
to the position. These three have not
formally announced their candidacy,
but it is said that they have given the
Governor to understand that they are
available. They are Charles F. True,
a teacher, John G. Anderson of IoIani
College, and Robert Law, vice prin-
cipal of the High School. AS to Wheth-
er the lightning will strike either one
Of them, no man can say.
Last night, however, Mr.. True did
formally announce his candidacy for
the position.
Incidentally, there is a strong boom
on hack stand 800 for A. V. Gear.

Drew LARGEST Salary.

S. G. +. Dodd, who has resign
ed as general solicitor OF the
Standard Oil company, probably
drew the largest salary Of any in
dividual in the United States. Mr..
Dodd has for years drawn an an
nual salary of $25o,ooo. The
only other salary drawn by law
yer which can compare with this
is that Of Francis Lynde Stetson,
who receives an annual retainer
of $4,000 from ]. p. Morgan &
&c. This retainer is given sim
ply for the purpose OF allowing
Mr.. Morgan to have the first call
upon the services Of Mr.. Stetson.
Whenever he is consulted he re-
ceives an extra fee. Sir Clinton
Dawkins, the head of the London
branch OF J. P. Morgan & Co., re-
ceives an annual salary Of $780,
900. In addition he receives a
certain percentage of the profits
Of the firm, which during some
years have amounted to larger
sum than his guaranteed salary.
Outside OF Mr.. Dodd about the
largest salary drawn by any in
dividual in this country is $780,
900. A large number OF persons
are known to draw this salary,
The largest salary drawn by any
railroad president is understood
to be $4,000. Both A. ]. Cas-
satt and James J. H. Hill are said
to draw this salary.

The London Fog.

The English fog is sui generis.
In a mild fog the perspective OF
a city street seems merely smoke
obscured, like street in a great
American manufacturing center.
What is generally called fog in
the United States is there mist
pure moisture ii the air, de-
void Of the foreign substances
which give the English fog its
distinctive character. The basis
of the fog is, of course, moisture,
to which the British isles are be-
lieved to be peculiarly liable from
their situation. Scientists say
that the topography OF London
renders it even more vulnerable
than most other parts Of England.
The mist alone would be only a
trihe, not necessarily unwhole-
some, and easily dissipated by
the sun, but it becomes charged
with the immense quantities OF
smoke pouring from countless
chimneys, the residue of soft
coal combustion. This SO thick
ems the Jog that it almost dehes
the sun. 1t gathers at the worst
after sundown. After sunrise, as
a rule, the fog slowly disappears,
till by noon the sun appears as a
red ball. On rare occasions the
fog may last all day undiminish-
ed, or it may come in the middle
OF the day, but the daylight pre-
vents its being quite SO bad as at
night, since very near objects gan
be seen. A very thick fog seldom
Ia SITS at the longest over two or
three days. Generally speaking,
the first fogs come with the au-
tumn frost~-the time and atmos-
pheric conditions corresponding
with the American Indian sum
mer. The fogs are said to be less
dense now than fifteen or twenty
years ago, owing to the attempt:
to abate the smoke nuisance anc
to the growing use of gas and
electricity for heating and cook
ing.

Rsnoyatino Playing Cards.

Berlin has started new indus
try. Old, stained playing cards,
all those slightly soiled which
have only been once or twice in
use, are collected from hotels,
clubs and hundred other estab-
lishments in Germany, Austria,
Hungary, Switzerland and are
cleaned and made as fresh as
new. They are carefully rubbed
with benzine on both sides, and
then, after drying, placed in
presses, where they are rendered
peri ctly fiat again. They are
then sprinkled over with powder
ed white lead and placed in a
warm press, where they receive
the finish and shine lost in the
fingers of the players. They then
find their way into another press
where the edges are carefully cut
Before being put on the market
they undergo, each card separate
ly, a careful revision to see that
they are all "as good as new"

Drouth in Europe.

This year a drouth spread over
all Western Europe. On June IS
il was reported by our cousnl that
the lack Of normal rainfall through
out Germany had become a wide
spread calamity not only to agri-
G. 'ture, but to many industries
which were more or less dependent
upon inland water transportation
for their supplies Of materials The
drouth continued practically un-
broken throughout June and July
ur Ill near the middle of August,
when local rains, more or less cop
ious, fell in the northern and central
parts OF the empire. In conse-
quence of the drouth in Wes'ern
Austria, bavaria, and Eastern
Switzerland, the government Of
Austria Hungary prohibited the ex-
pc Of fodc ,r for cattle in the shape
Of clover, hay, oats, or corn, as the
supplies in that country are already
insufficient, in view Of the pres
pcctive failure Of the second semi
annual harvest.

Maanetlo Poles.

The compass variation in many
parts Of the North Pacific is inn
perfect, while there is a slow
but constant secular change go
ing on in the position OF the
earth's magnetic poles, or foci.
Two of these poles, toward which
the magnetic needle is attracted.
exist in the northern hemisphere.
One Of them was actually reach
ed by Sir James Ross in 1881, in
the vicinity Of Hudson bay 90
degrees 5 minutes north, 90 de-
grees 43 minutes west). The
other is theoretically located in
Siberia, about 70 degrees north
us degrees east. But the posi-
ton Of the Siberian focus-which
controls compass variations in
the Western Pacific-is yet tc
be accurately determined.
