The Women's Coeducational Club in Chicago has invited men to join, attend it's meetings and take part in the liter ary exercises, assuring them that they need not wear dress clothes and can be as comfortable as in their own clubs. "Give us the wisdom of your exper- fence and help us to make this the greatest club in the city," say the women.
 Wise women. Of course they do not need the help of men to make their club the greatest in the city, and per- haps they do not really want 1t, But they are sweet and polite enough to keep up the flattering old habit of nnak- ing men think they amount to some, thing. ''The wisdom of your exper- iencel" How different that from the at- titude and the words of some of the women who assemble themselves to- gether and brutally reveal their all- conquering purpose and strength The Women's Coeducatonal Club of Chi cago is already the greatest in the city, if not in the world. Fortunate the men who are going to be made comfortable in it and allowed to think themselves wise and useful.

RICE IN ARKANSAS.

This country is growing richer and
 richer every year. and how it grows in some ways is indicated by the story of
 rice culture which comes from Arkan-
 sas. What use could be made of the
 barren stretch of grass-covered prairie land. known as Prairie Longue, con- tainiug many thousands of acres, has
 until recently been a troublesome prob- lem for Arkansas. Although it pro-
 duced hay of good quality, every att tempt to raise other crops failed But
 a negro solved the problem. Eli Moses, prosperous negro farmer of Lonoke
 county, had for several years experi- mented with rice culture, and had found the soil particularly adaptable to its
 successful cultivation. His success at- tracted the attention of ". P Fletcher, wealthy planter, whose extensive land holdings in the Prairie Longue region made him greatly interested in the mat ter. Mir. Fletcher had enough political
 influence to obtain q congressional ap-
 propriation sufficient to pay for care- full investigation of the subject by ex-
 perts of the Department of Agriculture On their report a further appropriation was made, which was duplicated by the State, and in 1904 experiments were be-
 gun. But ten acres were planted, but a yield that reached as much as seventy five bushels to the acre was considered encouraging. The Department of Az rlculture undertook the work in earn
 est, and an experiment station with a thirty-acre field was established the fol- lowing year. Private enterprise also
 entered the field, and farmers began to abandon all attempts at raising other crops, even cotton, and to devote all
 their attention to rice. The yields in private fields in 1905 averaged fronsfifty
 to sixty bushels to the acre, q fair com parison with the Louisiana average.
 This year there were 5000 acres under cultivation. Next year the acreage will
 be doubled. Land which a decade ago could be had for from 50 cents to $5 an acre now sells for $50 to $50
 Good work. The negro who showed
 Arkansas ought to have fine monu- ment when he is dead.

NOT TET

Election day Is only two weeks away, and already many Republicans and Democrats in Connecticut are saying that it is all over but the voting and counting, and that the Republicans have a sure thing. We believe they have, but sure things, except death, taxes and the nomination and election of the Hon. N. D. sperry, are about the most uncertain things So it be- hooves all interested in Republican suc- cess to act as if the election wasn't al-
 ready done and won, The apathy that seems to prevail may mean that there is no general desire for a change. It probably does. but there is a possibility that it means that there is a desire for change and an intention to make one.
 So the Republicans and Assistant Re- publicans shouldn't talk or act as those who put off their armor. Rather should they talk and act as those who have got 1t on and mean to win the fight

i CHANCE FOR 4 HORSE LA UGH.
 If horses hear what MT. Edison has been saying they will perhaps be mild ly interested, and perhaps they will give horse laugh or two, He promises to put on the market within six months a new storage battery which will ena- ble any one to travel in his own pri~ vate carriage at about the cost of car fare. Specifically, he says he will be able to sell for S1O cell storage bat tcry that is indestructible, It will trav- el 10C,0OO miles before 1t is worn out, Twenty cells will be all that is needed for runabout or brougham, and sixty cells will be enough for the heaviest truck For $2OO one will be equipped with motive power that will need no renewal for fifteen years. Tn fifteen years the horse will be curiosity; we shall be paying fifty cents to look at him in side shows" says Edison
 Something like this has been said several times, and yet the horse is sti' going, He is as vain a thing for safe ty as he ever was, but his value in money doesn't decrease,

, Perhaps the highest price for a ser mon goes every year to German preacher, who receives e92O for his eff fort. This high figure is obtained in a curious way. As long ago as 1890 a wealthy French baron named Favart, who lived in Elberfeld, died and be- queathed his money to the Protestant church there on the condition that it should be invested and the interest Giv- en annually to some clergyman, chosen haphazard from those holding the poor est livings in. the see, on condition that he preached a short sermon extolllng the good deeds of the dead baron. The sermon Is generally delivered after the regular morning service on the first Sunday in June, and lasts half an hour.

M. Jaures, the French Socialist lead CT, finds that Socialstic journalism does not pay. In the Humanite he an- nounces that that newspaper must be suspended unless friends of the cause come to the rescue. The paper, he says, is being worked at a loss of more than $2,5OO month, and the accumula- tion of debt has become too great to be borne. M. Jaures says he has been of fered $4OOOO wherewith to keep the Eu- mantle going if he will cease to attack Russian credit in it, but he prefers q natural death to dependent existence. The probable demise of Humanite is naturally pleasing to anti-socialists
 who regard it as an indication that the party led by M. Jaures cannot have very much backbone if it allows his or gan to perish through want of support
