GAS AND WATER.
IS ONE As NECESSARY AS THE
oTHER7
cllIaens q Large cltIes say 4 ..

New York, June 13.-In the recent
agitation here about the price of gas,
the demand for lower rates was sup
ported by the argument that every resi-
dent is as dependent upon a supply of
gas as upon supply Of good water.
1t has come to pass that the day Ia
borer uses gas as his only fuel for
cooking, because Of economy, and the
rich man uses gas on account of its
convenience. Gas for lighting, with
modern improvements in burners, is
cheaper, better and more satisfactory
than any other kind of light Gas
sells at $1.00 per thousand cubic feet
in large cities, and from that to as high
as $500 in smaller towns.
The consumer of gas in the country
uses Acetylene pronounced a-set-a-
lene), and each user makes his own gas
and is Independent OF Gas and Electric
Companies. Acetylene is a more per-
feet ilIuminant than the gas sold by
the big gas companies in the cities, and
the cost to the smallest user is about
the equivalent of city gas at 50 cents
pei LuOuSduQ.
Acetylene is the modern artificial
light, the latest addition to the many
inventions that have become daily ne
cessities.
The light from an acetylene fame is
soft, steady and brilliant, and in quail
ity is only rivaled by the suns rays.
If water and solid material known as
Calcium Carbide are brought into con-
tact, the immediate result is the max
ing of this wonderful gas. The genera
ton of acetylene is SO simple that ex-
perience or even apparatus is not neces-
sary to make it. If it is desired to
make it for practical lighting, and to
keep it for immediate use. then small,
machine called an "Acetylene Genera
tor is employed. There are many re-
| sponsible concerns making acetylene
generators. In practice this gas is dis
tributed in small pipes throughout
buildings. grounds or entire cities and
towns in the same manner as ordinary
city gas. Acetylene is the only salts
factory means of lighting isolated
buildings located in the country or
suburbs at distance from city gas or
electric plants

excellent results in cases where the

lies largely in the fact that in crush

effect of improving capillarity below.
1t sometimes happens that because
of the looseness of the Aoil water is not

that the moisture from below cannot
move upward rapidly enough to ball

suit in either case is an insufficient
amount of moisture in the upper SOIL
1. A well developed mulch would re-
duce the evaporation losses, and since
water moves more rapidly through
moist soil than through dry, the ten
dency would be to accelerate the up
ward movement of moisture and in
time to accumulate an abundance of it
in the upper soil.

the soil and thus increase the upward

An Ugly Customer.

The giant Of the whole spider family
is the hound or dog" spider of Mad
agasear. It's body weighs almost a
pound, and each of its eight legs is
longer and larger in diameter than the
common cedar pencil. Each of its
mandibles is three-fourths of an inch
in length and very strong.
The dog spider does not spread a net
and lie in wait for its prey, as do the
gigantic bird spiders of Ceylon, but
follows the trail' in exact imitation
of hound. 1t will follow a faint
scent to and fro through the weeds
and underbrush until the course is as
certained, and then suddenly dart of
in bee line and quickly overtake the
lizard, rat, mole or other animal Of
which 1t is in pursuit 1t nus been
known to capture and kill lizards a
foot or more in length, and Prof. Bar
naby tell Us of one which pounced
upon and killed full-grown rat.
The dog spider is said to be the only
variety among the larger species of
spiders which is absolutely non-ven-
omous, there being no more danger in
its bite than there is that of a SPUR.

At the biennial convention Of the
Order of Railway Conductors, recently
held at Portland. Oregon, resolutions
We're unanimously adopted yoicing
their sentiments as to tie effect of pro-
posed railway rate legislation on the
100000 railroad employees, whom they
in part represented. These resolutions
Endorse the attitude OF PRESIDENT
Roosevelt i'll condemning secret rebates
and other illegalities, ana commend the
attitude of the heads of American rail
ways, who, with practical unanimity,
have Joined with the President on this
question" They then respectfully
point cut to Congress the "inadvisabil-
ity of legislation vesting in the hands
Of a commission power over railway
rates, now lower By far in the United
States than in any other country" be-
cause such regulation would result in
litigation and confusion and inevitably
tend to an enforced reduction in rates,
irrespective of the question of the abil-
ity of the railroads to stand the reduc-
ton, especially in view Of the increased
cost of their supplies and materials"
They further protested against such
power being given TO the present Inter-
state Commission because 'the pro-
posed legislation is not IN harmony
with our idea of American juris-
prudence, inasmuch as 1t contemplates
that single body shall have the right
to investigate, indict, try, condemn and
then enforce its decisions at the cost
OF the carriers, pending appeal, which
is manifestly inequitabse."
The conductors base their demand
for only such legislation, if any, as
would Secure and insure justice and
equity and preserve equal rights to all
parties concerned" on the ground that
the low cost of transportation lis the
result of the efficiency of Americas
railway management and operation

velopment of territory. while at the
same time recognition has been given
to the value of intelligence among en-
ployes in contrast to foreign methods,
where high freight rates and lowest
wages to employees obtain
In pressing their Clair against legis-
lation adverse to their interests, they
point out the fact that "the freight
rates of this country average only two
per cent. of the cost of articles to the
consumer, thus making the freight rate
so insignificant a factor in the selling
price that numerous standard articles
are sold at the same price in all parts
of the country"

Some explanation for the confusion
in peoples minds as to the right defini-
ton of afternoon may be found in the
old confusion between noon and mid
day. Noon, of course, was originally
at o'clock in the afternoon-if the
"bulr' be permitted-the hour when
the monks said their "Nones7 or noon
song. The reason that it was put back
to IL o'clock may lie in the fact that
the monks were not allowed to eat
their dinner until after they had said
Nones; for in time they anticipated the
service, and their dinner, by saying
Nones Immediately after the midday
service, and that is probably how mid
day came to be called noon. In the

at midday and high noon as at 3.-Lon-
