ALL. FOND OF PEANUTS.
Delicacy Relished by All Animals
Even the Hippopotamus Devours
Them with Pleasure.

1.-THE peanut is delicacy relished by
all creatures" said New York animal
lover 81 have come to this conclusion
after having offered 1t to every animal
in the Central Park ZOO, and having ii
refused by none.
ooh, | know 1t isn't allowed; but I'm
not one of those individuals who offer
animals indfscriminate numbers of
hard-boiled eggs, frankfurters, cheese
sandwiches and cigar stumps. It's for
that sort of nuisance the rule about
feeding is made. A single peanut cant
ruin the digestion Of a camel-or of
any other creature, for that matter,
and | never visit the zoo without a
bag or two of those legumes to dis
tribute.
Eyes, the camel is fond of them
very; and so are the peacocks. The
hippopotamus obligingly opens his
mouth to let me toss one in, but the
mouth is so large and the peanut so
small that I doubt If he can quite de-
eide whether he likes it or not.
"The kangaroo pokes his funny,
horse-like head out to me, munches the
peanut with relish, and then begs for
more. The elephant, deer, ostrich, and
even the lion, are all lovers of the pea
nut"

A POSTAL INVESTIGATION.
A Commission Will Inquire Into
Second Class Mail Matter.
To Determine whether 1t Bears
Its just Proportion of the Cost
of the Department.

Washington, July 9..-Henry II.
Clauste, secretary of the commission
TO inquire into and report to con-
ercss its conclusions concerning the
laws relative to second-class mail
matter, Sunday issued an announce,
ment that the first session will be
held at the Holland house. New York,
at noon October l, 1906 The an
nouncement in part follows:
The report of the postmaster gen.
eral for the fiscal year ended June 30,
1905, shows that the cost of maintain
ing the entire postal service for that
year was approximately $167,0000O0
and that the revenue from all sources
! was approximately $153, 100000 Sec,
ond-class matter constituted approx
mately two-thirds of the matter han
died, while it yielded but $6,1S6, 4G754
or about one-twenty-fo of the rev.
enue derived from postage. Not only
has the postal revenue suffered by
reason of the undue expansion of this
class of matter as compared with 9TH
er classes, but in dealing with the
matter itself the postal service IS
hampered at every step by difficulties
and perpexities of administration"
The system as a whole, the report
says, lacks uniformity and is confus-
ing to publisher and official alike.
The report says the inquiry will be
especially directed towards determin-
ing whether the revenue from the
second-class mail matter should not
be made commensurate with the ac-
tual cost of the service rendered in
handling it; if not, what limitations
should be placed upon the matter
which may properly be embraced in
that class.
Owing to the great number of pub
lcations concerned the committee
deemed it impracticable to extend the
privilege of the hearing to individual
publishers. Each national organiza-
ton will be heard orally by not TO
exceed three representatives desis'
mated by the organizations, and those
classes of publications not having reg.
ular organizations will be heard
through persons who may be regarded
as fairly representative.

Folk Monday issued instructions to st.

arrest all saloonkeepers of st. Joseph

declares the state law must be enforced
and if the police cannot do it they
must give place to others who can,
There is an intimation that he will
send militia. st. Joseph saloonkeepers
refuse to close because of the decision
of the Kansas City court of appeals
that a city ordinance allowing them to
sell on Sunday in that city is valid.

THE FIRST COMPASS.
Was Known to Sailors Before the
Twelfth Century-Indispensabls
Adjunct to Navigation.

Some Asian people, perhaps the Chi
nese, discovered, many centuries ago,
that kind of iron ore possessed a very
peculiar quality. We call this ore
magnetic ore, In more common Ian
guage, lodestone, and 1t Is very widely
distributed, especially in the older
crystalline rocks. 1t was found that
II bit of lodestone were placed In
water upon piece Of cork or straw
braid 1t would turn till the axis of the
stone assumed north and south posi-
ton. A phenomenon of magnetism had
been discovered by means OF an ore
that is peculiarly susceptible to mag
netic influence.
1t is an open question whether the
Chinese utilized the directive power Of
the lodestone, but 1t is certain that the
first rude compass was not used on
Eus,pean vessels before the twelfth
century Of our era. BY that time the
true magnetic compass had been
evolved through the discovery that II
I
an iron or steel needle were stroked
on a lodestone 1t would receive the at
tractive and directive power Of this
ore. With this wonderful appliance
placed at the service of navigation, the
vessels that had Rugged the coasts soon
dared to venture even out Of sight Of
land A new impetus was gradually
given to cartography, for now the true
directions Of the coast lines might be
charted with some approach to accu-
racy. 1t was the hapy fortune Of Ital-
ian sailors to make the surprisingly ex-
cellent surveys Of the directions and
lengths of the Black sea and Mediter-
ranean coasts and along the Atlantic
to British waters that have come down
to us in the so-called Portulan maps

CONVICTED OF REBATING.
Chicago & Alton Railroad and Two For
mer Officials Found Guilty by
Federal Grand Jury.

Chicago, July 8.-The Chicago &
Alton railroad and John N. .Fairthorn
and Fred A. Wann, formerly officials
of the road, were Friday convicted in
the United States district court of IL
legally granting rebates to the
Schwarzschild & Sulzberger Packing
company 1t was claimed by the gov
eminent that the officials of the rail.
road company had allowed the em-
ployes of the packing company to trav-
ell free of expense by refunding to them
all money expended for transportation.
1t was declared by the court that this
did not comprise a rebate, and he in.
structed the jury that verdict of not
guilty should be returned as to two
counts of the indictment which charged
the giving of rebates in connection
with this passenger transportation.
In the other eight counts Of the in
dictment, on all Of which the defend
ants were found guilty, two offenses
against the Elkins law were proved.
1t was shown by the government that
the railroad company had charged "a
per car for handling the products Of
Schwarzschild G Sulzberger at Kan
sas City and had then repaid the pack
ing company 81 on each car. The
government claimed and the court
held that the failure of the railroad
TO publish in its tariff sheet the fact
that the ST. was repaid made it in fact
secret rebate. 1t was claimed by
the attorneys for the defendants that
the refund of 81 per car was necessary
because the packing company owned
The railroad track near its plant and
compelled the railroad company 10
pay that amount for trackage when
it hauled the cars away.
Under the law the maximum SEN
fence Of the court may be a fine of
100000 for each Of the three defend
ants. NO Imprisonment provision APP
pears in the law. There are two spe-
cific allegations of rebating alleged in
the eight counts of the indictment up
held by the court.
