I desire to announce to the public that
while visiting the quarries in Vermont
and New York this winter I pur-
chased two carloads of the finest marble
and granite that can be produced in the
New England states. Thus I am pre-
pared to show one of the best stocks
of finished monuments at my works, No.
200 West Yakima avenue, that can be
seen in the northwest. My prices are
very low as I bought my stock in such
large quantities direct from the quarries.
Come and see me and look through my
stock if you want to erect monument.
Yours respectfully,
last T. A. DAVIS.

Kuropatkiu.

The story that Grand Duke Nicholas is to
supersede Kuropatk is probably too good
to be true. For that surely would mean
peace, and peace at once. 1t would be a
sort of surrender. If Kuropatkin cannot
win, who can? When he departed for the
front he was acclaimed as Russia's great
est living soldier, and nobody disputed the
appraisement. How high the praise was
the world did not know. for over a quarter
of a century had elapsed since Russian
troops had confronted a foreign foe. What
we were asked to believe was that kuro-
patkin was as good now as in the war
with Turkey, and that he would repeat in
Manchuria against the Japanese the sue
cesses he had achieved against the Turks.
But so far he has failed to meet that ex-
pectation. The reason is not so easily
produced. Kuropatkin may be as good
ever and the trouble may be with his army
and his cause. The Jap may be a better
man in arms than the Turk At any rate
Kuropatkn is at a stapdstill, and it is
wholly unlikely that. any Russian grand
duke could take his place and put the
enemy to rout.

Wires and Weather.

A scientist has come forward with a sug-
gestion which may solve the problem OF
weather forecasting to large extent and
perhaps relieve the official prophets of a
part of their responsibility. He says that
whenever the telegraph wires give forth a
humming sound marked changes in tenn
perature are certain to occur within asfew
hours. To make his method practicable he
explains that owing to the atmospheric
ferent circumstances. the east and west
wires hum when the thermometer will drop,
while the north and south wires will hum
to prophesy warmer weather. This is a
good thing to remember. But it must be
well remembered 1t would be a sad result
get them crossed, and, thinking they were
north and south, leave off his f1annels only
to discover shiveringlya little later that they
were east and west wires The sense of di-
rection must be cultivated as well. Other
wise the rule of the wires would be about as
useless as that of the housewife who
marked all her pies 1T NJ" When asked
what the letters stood for she explained:
This means TITS mince, and that one
'Tain't mince.' Or the equally simple but
perhaps misleading rule of the other house
wife who had discovered that she could
always tell good eggs from bad by dropping
them in water. If they floated they were
either good or bad, but she could not for
the life of her remember which.

Sixth Century Bacteriology.

good one. capable of even greater triumphs
of analysis and research.

Triumph of Law in Virginia.

The state of Virginia is to be congratu-
lated upon the manner in which it has dis
posed of the case of McCue, who was
hanged today at Charlottesville for the
murder of his wife on the 4th of last Sep
TENDER The mans confession on the eve
of the execution, pronouncing the sentence
to be just and completely acknowledging
guilt, was rot needed by the majority of
people to justify the verdict of the trial
jury and the subsequent actions of the APP
peal courts and the governor. But that
sta tement by McCue has nevertheless closed
the case with some credit to him and has
removed all possible doubt of the righteous
upon the prosecution of the accused with
commendable vigor in view of the sent-
ment felt in many parts of the common
wealth against applying the law of capital
punishment to white people. The crime was
particularly atrocous, yet the social and
official status of the man was such as to
insure him a certain amount of sympathy.
1t was difficult task to convict him on
circumstantial evidence, despite the COM
mon belief that he killed his wife. When
all other appeals failed Governor Montague
was besought by hundreds of people to
grant Communication of sentence, and the
circumstances of the final plea to him of
the little daughter of the condemned man
made his resolution not to intervene es
pecially difficult. 1t is to his great credit
that he held firmly to it and allowed the
law to take its course. The whole state
benefits by this spectacle, and it is to be
hoped that the law lesson and the moral
lesson will be thoroughly appreciated.

ton of the country. Still New York will
continue to exercise considerable influence
over the party, and this as against himself
will result in the going over of the men
who nominated Judge Parker last year to
the republican nominee. Then Mr.. Bryan
will raise his old shout, appeal to the west
and south as against the east. and see If
in politics, as in other things, the third
time is the charm.
His difficulty will be in the south New
Yorks influence in that quarter is very
great, and is growing all the time. She has
large investments there in railroads. in
banks. in mines, in manufactures, and even
in mercantile enterprises, and by those means
she reaches many men of light and lead
ing who heretofore have taken too lit
tie part in politics. Such men she is now
stirring up. She aims at nothing less, in
deed. than revolutionizing the political lead
ership of the south, by which sentiment
tickled by eloquence shall play smaller,

necessary to point out, Mr.. Bryan would

Expectoration.
From the New York Times.

From the New York Times
1t must be allowed that the board of
health has done well to show that its proc
lamation prohibiting splitting upon the floors
of places of public resort or public convey
anceS is not dead letter. 1t is not easy to
see how it could nave taken any less Of
fenslve method of suppressing the offensive
practice. Passengers who have directed
the attention of conductors to the misbe-
havior of particularly offensive expectora-
tors report that they have met with little
sympathy from these officials. In these
conditions, the notifications are of no more
avail than those placards in the churches of
the far west which, according to Emerson
plead with the worshipers against the fury
of expectoration." The ordinance of the
board of health has the validity of law
Continued and ostentatious and unpublished
disregard of it tends to bring the board
and the law into ridcule and contempt
The arrested spitters may feel aggrieved,
but they have real grievance. They
have offended after ample notice of the
consequences 1t is to be expected that the
steps so tardiiy taken toward the enforce
ment of the ordinance will be effective.
Nobody can like to have his name published
as having been guilty of an offensive prac-
tice in public. If he does not mind it. all
the more reason why he should be dealt
with severely. And splitting on the side
walks is quite as Objectionable as splitting
on the floors of public places or public con-
veyanceS.

The Railroad Rate Bill.

Yesterdays action of the House on The
railroad rate problem monopolizes atten-
ton We need not consider the politics
that was injected into the debate. 1t was
natural for the democrats to chaff the -e-
publicans, and for the republicans to chaff
back. That was the legislative order of
things 1t is probably true. too. that neither
side got exactly what it wanted And 1t
would be difficult to say what either side
would have proposed if the situation had
been simpler. But both sides We're divided,
and out of the confusion and difficulty
something like unanimity resulted.
What we have to consider is a bill which
is the response of both parties in the House
to a demand so widespread as to sldetrack
for the moment all other questions. 1t Is
the product of lawyers. it is approved by
other lawyers. and it is acceptable to the
business world. If the railroads are holding
back it is thought to be because the more
powerful of them would have nothing at
all done. The bill itself alarms them less
than does the general proposition. They
are fighting not only for delay, but for de-
lay in the belief that with little SINE
they will be able to give matters twist in
their own favor. What their hope is based
upon does not now appear.
The matter is up to the Senate, and the
railroads are not without friends in that
body. Opinion as to what may be expect
ed. what is possible, there, is divided A
little over three weeks remain of the ses-
sion, and there are no rules limiting debate
Will the opponents of action resort to OBJ
struction? VIII they play this card, hrst III

activity; and the new Congress may come
together instructed by the development of
public sentiment meanwhile. and inspired to
a measure less acceptable to them than
the present one. The country is convinced
that very grave abuses exist, that they
should be corrected, and it wants an early
start made toward that end. very white
light beats upon the Senate at this time.
