WISDOM OF CHILDREN.
Bright Comments That Drop From
the Lips of Juveniles.

Bright Comments That Drop From
the Lips of Juveniles.
What could be more simple or more
splendidly direct as a compliment to a
pretty girl than the small boys ad-
miring question, Are your eyes new
ones?" No "grownup' person could
have thought Of that. ga Illuminating
animal is one that chews her cubs
there might surely be less thoughtful
definitions. AS for definitions, no die
tionary has ever given anything better
than "a movable feast-a picnic"
There is delightful note Of the night
nursery in the beginning Of a girls
essay on boys, ''The boy is not an ami
NAL, but they can be heard to a con-
siderable distance" equaled perhaps
in it's splendid simplicity by the boys
written criticism to the effect that
most girls are very shy and angry"
1t is the directness of the description
which compels attention in vivid COM
ments such as, "Just before it killed
me the tooth came out" and nothing
surely could be more Johnsonian in it's
absolute truth than the answer given
to the painstaking schoolmaster try
ing to make the class understand what
word "antipOdes." IF bored hole
right through the earth till 1 came out
at the other side where should l be?"

A New Propeller.

The German steamship lines running
to New York have been trying a new
propeller which will make their boats
from 10 to 30 per cent faster If its in
ventor's expectations are fulfilled. On
the thrusting face it has concave
blades which throw the water more
outward than the ordinary propeller.
The new propeller increased the speed
of boat thirty feet long from ten to
thirteen miles. A patent propeller put
on the Kaiser Wilhelm II. last June
enabled her to win the ocean record
from the Deutschland. If the new pro-
peller does what its inventor, Mr.. Ora
wert-Zellein, promises, the Deutschland
can cross in about four days and half
and attain a speed Of from twenty-six
to thirty knots an hour.-Everybody'

THE BROWN GUN.


A Fighting Machine With . Range a
One Hundred Miles.
The inventor Of the new American
gun Is q man named ]. Hamilton
Brown, though the work Of construct
ing this particular six inch experiment.
al piece is in charge of Colonel John NJ.
Ingalls,, retired, U. S. A., an artillerist
OF high standing and reputation. De-
spite the incredulity of contemporary
gun builders, Colonel Ingalls, and the
officers with him assert that this ak
inch gun will throw thirty miles a pro-
jectile weighing a hundred pounds
which will pierce six inch steel tar
get.
A ten inch gun Of this construction,
with powder chamber Of 1889 cubic
inches and using $50 pounds Of smoke
less powder, would hurl a 600 pound
prOjectile distance Of fifty-nine miles.
Increasing this ration, a sixteen inch
gun would have an extreme range Of
more than hundred miles, and
equipped with such coast defense rifles
England and France could shell each
other across the channel.-Everybody's

A BAMBOO LAND.
Wide Uaefulness of This Wonderful
Plant In China.

wide Usefulnes. of This Wonderful
Plant In China.
A recent traveller in China impressed
with the wide usefulness Of bamboo
thus states some of the possibilities:
A man can sit in bamboo house,
under a bamboo roof, on a bamboo
chair, at a bamboo table, with his feet
bamboo hat on his head and bamboo
sandals on his feet. He can at the
same time hold in one hand bamboo
bowl, in the other bamboo chOpsticks
and eat bamboo sprouts.
When through with his meal, which
has been cooked over a bamboo fire.
the table may be washed with bAm-
beo cloth, and he can fan himself with
bamboo fan and take a siesta on
bamboo bed, lying on bamboo mat,
with his head resting on a bamboo pill
low. His child might be lying in a
bamboo cradle, playing with a bam-
boo toy.
On rising, he could smoke bamboo
pipe and, taking a bamboo pen, write
a letter on bamboo paper or carry his
articles in bamboo baskets suspended
from bamboo pole, with a bamboo
umbrella over his head. He might
then take a walk over a bamboo sus-
pension bridge, drink water out Of q
bamboo ladle and scrape himself with
a bamboo sweat scraper handker-
Chief The bamboo ingenuity and per-
sistency have produced (bamboo) joint
results which exhibit the potentialities
and possibilities Of the Chinese people.

PROBING OF LAND FRAUDS IN
WASHINGTON TO BE SAME
AS IN OREGON
Considerable Mystery as to Time and
Manner in Which Investigation
Will Be Made

There is no doubt about the inten-
ton of the president to make a thor
ough Investigation into land frauds in
Washington, just as he has done in
Oregon, but there is considerable mys-
terry as to the time and manner in
which the investigation will be made.
The presumption is that the govern
ment will clear up the pending cases
in Oregon before it jumps in very deep
| in some other state, and when the Or
egon cases are out of the way, there
are the California cases ready to be
taken up, though the men implicated
in the California frauds will probably
be tried in Washington, D. c.
Francis J. Heney, temporarily acting
William J. Burns, secret service agent,
| who worked up the evidence against
Senator Mitchell, Representatives
Hermann and williamson, and others
said to be implicated in Oregon frauds,
are very likely to be charged with the
probing of land frauds in Washington
| if the government is successfully able
to prosecute the Oregon men under
| Indictment.
The president, SO far, is highly pleas
ed with the work done by Heney and
| Burns, and if, at the conclusion of the
| trials, the make good" it is ten to
one they will be turned loose north of
| the Columbia river. There have been
| countless rumors of frauds in WASH
| ington, and no doubt there is some
| foundation for many Of these rumors.
But it remains to be seen when the
government will go to the bottom, ana
| who will be selected for this task.

CHARLES SWEENY OF SPOKANE
is SAID TO BE SLATED FOR
THE PRESIDENCY
His Name Has Been Proposed by Mon
tana Interests, Who Are De-
manding Recognition.

Charles Sweeny, the Spokane multi
millionaire and a leading candidate in
the last session of the state legislature
for the seat now held by Samuel H.
Piles in the United States senate, is
slated for the presidency of the Anal
gamated Copper company of Butte,
Mont, says the Seattle Times.
Mr.. Sweeney has returned to Spo-
kane from New York, where he mas
been for the pase month comforting
with the Rockefeller interests. 1t is
understood that he is satisfactory to
all factions of this big concern.
The Amalgamated Copper company
is the one that Tom Lawson, of Bos
ton, is throwing so many spasms over
in Everybodys magazine, and the
company is probably better known
than any other mining corporation in
the world.
Would Inspire Confidence
Mr.. Sweeny's name was proposed by
Montana, interests, who declare that
they are not only entitled to a western
man for president, but that Sweeny
has such a sterling reputation that the
very fact that he was at the head of
the concern would tend to inspire
confidence in all the stockholders, large
and small
News of Mr.. Sweeny's probable
election was brought to Seattle from
New York by James D. Hoge, president
of the Union Savings and Trust COM
pany. Mr. Hoge met Mr.. Sweeny in
the Waldorf-Astoria in New York re-
Gently, and it was then that Mr.
Sweeny intimated that his election to
the office was probable. The Wall
Street Journal, in a recent edition, Mr.
Hoge says, forecasted the e1ectic> of
Mr.. Sweeny.
Mr. Sweeny has closed out complete
ly his holdings in federal mining stocks
and has now in the banks of the coun-
try fully $2,7OO,OOO in cash. let alone
his holdings in various mines and COM
mercaiI propositions.
