Do you know how mank snails are
said to be consumed in New York city
in one week alone, when the season is
at its height? Why, in the neighbor-

NEW BEAST OF BURDEN.
Experiments in the Production of a
Cross Between Horse and
Zebra.

by means OF two male zebras, I'M
ported from Abyssinia as the gilt OF
King Menelik and which are now at
the National geological park in Wash
ington, the department Of agriculture
homes to make in this country new
beast of burden-a cross between The
zebra and the horse. Experiments in
this direction by the French authori-
ties at Paris have been very success
full. says Country Life in America. The
hybrid is smaller than the horse. l. Is
an exceedingly tough and wiry animal
and win be suited to the warmer sec
tions OF the United States. The his
tory OF the American mule is sug-
gestive Of the possibilities Of the zebra.
A century ago the mule was very
scarce animal In the United States.
Washington had done much to direct
attention to his merits and had loaned
the services Of large Spanish Jack,
presented to him by the king OF
Spain. But the mule did not become
popular until well into the century
AT our last census, however, we had
nearly 100000 mules with taxable
value of $3.50 100000 The possibilities
from the two zebras are immense--
they may combine with the donkey
and back into the horse and thus n
troduce entirely new strains.

Gigantic Community Of Einancial In

Wonder.

In Worlds Work. French Strothef
describes the influences that bear on
Niagara falls and threaten their de-
struction. From this article, "Shall
Niagara Be Saved?" the following quo
fation is taken: Thus we swing the
complete circle Of interests that are
centered around the incident Of Mag
ara falls. The same interests control
the railroads, the electrical supplies
companies, and the power companies
And in the midst Of this gigantic com
munity Of financial interests, whose
operations are already of momentum
sufficient ultimately to tax the power
producing capacity Of Niagara, stand
the falls--not as a magnificent monu
ment to the pride Of the United States
in a glory Of nature, but as the 16S-
foot drop OF 224,000 cubic feet Of water

spur to our pride. This IS, What
have we, directly or Indirectly, received
in return for the franchises we have
given? SO far as the United States

Rntter Withont Colonies.

Spain has been advancing in ma
terial prosperity, and, indeed, in gen
eral moral standing ever since she
lost the last of her foreign possess
sions in the war with the United
states. Her Philippine possessions she
sold at good price and got a whole
some chashsement into the bargain.
She has learned a lesson and is now
giving intelligent and successful at
tention to her own country. State
ments of her condition grow better
from year to year. SPAN is back
within her natural environment and
is getting along we'll. If she keeps on
at her present pace she will be out OF
debt and have money to lend. 1t Is
a pious hope that she will never at
tempt to absorb other peoples land
again, and that the other nations Of
the earth will not disturb her in her
home rule.-Cincinnati Fnqnsrer.
