J. II. Dickson informs US that
the rain fall for the months OF June
and July vas smaller by two inch
es than during those two months
in any previous year since he has
kept the record, being only 81
inches. Yet we have seldom had
better small grain or better pros

orders will be taken, as I shall not

Mr.. Paul Landmann returned
from Omaha Saturday where he
went to investigate the method and
cost Of manufacturing denatured
alcohol. He examined the alcohol
plant at that place and secured all
of the information possible from
the manager Of the institution.
Making due allowance for the fact
that bis i~nformantis engaged in the
business, and is not anxious to see
competing plants established, the
prospects of successfully operating
a small plant did not appear to
Mr.. Landmann to be overly in
wiling. The books of the Omaha
firm, and reports of the government
inspector were examined, showing
that the cost of manufacturing al
cohol Of 1873 test is about 81 cents
per gallon. With the extra cost of
fuel here MIR. Landmann thinks
the cost would be increased TO about
26 cents here. OF course alcohol
of 100 test could be manufactured
considerably cheaper but it il a
question whether such grade would
be suitable for heating and lighting
purposes. In addition to this cost
} would be the expense of denatur-
ing which is uncertain. He was
also informed that the law remov-
ing the internal revenue is still in
complete and is likely toibe chang
ed by the next session of congress
so it is the opinion Mr.. Landmann
; that a delay of a few months, until
the law is fully established, and
more exact estimates regarding cost
of manufacture can be secured is
advisable before proceeding to in
stall a plant here.

GUARANTEE NORWAY
PERPETUAL PEACE

st. Petersburg, Nov. 25.--An inter-
national compact guaranteeing the in.
volatility of Norway against aggres,
sion by any power whatever and givl
ing the new Kingdom a status somei
what similar to that of Switzerland
and Belgium will soon be inscribed
on the records of diplomacy. On ac-
count of its extended position, the
possession Of valuable deep water har-
bors on the Atlantic and the agree,
ment with Sweden against fortifica,
tons in the neighborhood of the fron7
tier, Norway is in a peculiarly expos
ed position and the first efforts of
Morse diplomacy have been directed
toward eliminating the danger of be,
ing attacked and securing facilities
for the peaceful development of the
country without the crushing burden
of large army.
With regard to the action of Nor
way in approaching the powers for
the purpose of securing these con,
cessions, 1t can be stated that Russia,
the power most directly concerned
and from which Norway, In spite Of
the denial by the Russian foreign Of.
fee, apparently had the most to fear,
had no objection to the conclusion Of
such convention. Germany already
has signified her approval of the
movement, of which Great Britain Is
the sponsor and France will follow
suit.

FRENCH SCHOOL SHIP BURNS.
Believe That Most of Crew Of 500 Are
Saved.

Toulon, France, Nov. 26.-The tor
pedo school ship Algeciras stationed
in this harbor was totally destroyed
by fire at a late hour last evening,
There were 500 men on board when
the fire broke out, but it is believed
that most of them were saved.
The burning of the school ship
crented the greatest alarm through.
out the city. There was terrible anx,
iety concerning the men until the au--
thorities announced that everybody
had been saved with the exception OF
three, who did not answer the roll
call. It is presumed that they were
burned to death.
The entire garrison was called out
to render assistance and the crews of
othey warships hurriedly launched
their boats to go TO the rescue OF
their comrades.
Organized efforts were made to put
the fire out, but In vain. The flames
spread quickly and the ship was blaz.
ing from stem to stern almost before
the men had time to leave 1t.
There was much fear during the
height OF the fire that torpedo mag
azine on shore would become iginited.
This was prevented by powerful fire
boats.

Dogs as Policemen.
IOWA


A writer in the Century magazine
gives an interesting account of the use
of dogs as assistants to the police In
Belgian cities and In Paris. In the
latter city they have proved efficient
In rescuing from the Seine many VIC
tins of accident and would-be suicides,
while in other lines of work connect
ed with the police department their
services are valuable. But 1t is In the
Belgian cities that the employment
of dog police seems to have been
brought to its highest efficiency. In
the city Of Client the training and
maintenance Of dogs for police duty
has proved to be profitable invest
ment A dog costs the city of Client
a little over five cents per day for
maintenance, and 80 dog police cost
1885 francs per year. 1t Is clcimed
that 80 dogs do more than four times
the work that would be accomplished
by IL men, who would cost the NUM-.
cipality $4,000 francs" The idea Of
dog policemen semes to be good one,
all right One distinct and obvious
advantage of the system, not men,
toned by the Century writer, would
be that they could go on the dog
watch" without difficulty or friction.
And in this connection the thought
occurs that 1t would be good idea
for San Francisco to investigate the
dog police question. If that city needs
one thing more than another, 1t Is an
efficient police force. The question Of
recognizing the force Is now under
active discussion, and the time for the
experiment Is opportune. There can
be no reasonable doubt that the addi-
ton of few good dogs to the San
Francisco police force would add
greatly to its efficiency. Some per-
sons may think that the force would
be a dog-gone sight better If it were
composed entirely of dogs, but we do
not go 80 far as that.
