Since the death OF Herbert Spencer
many anecdotes have been recounted,

side of his nature. The great men who

Machine VS.. Hand Work in Mines.
Consul McNally of Liege reports
that while the advocates of machine
work in Belgium's mines assert that
the system will eventually supersede
hand, labor, its merits have not as yet
warranted such belief. He writes:
The present inventions, while max
ing marked progress in some coal
regions, are almost at standstill in
others. This, however, might be due
to the peculiar formation of the coal
veins, layers, etc. The engineers of
the Pas-deCalais coal district are ever.
on the watch for novelties in thaveuse,
roilleuses and perforators,' and have
employed them with the success noted
below. In 1902 the mechanical out
put was 100000 tons; in 1903 it was
10000 tons, and in 1904 about 1884,
900 tons. When considering the yearly
output of the district at 10000, 900
tons, the mechanical percentage Of
about 1 per cent is small.
In England the machine work is
more successful. The total produce
ton in 1902 was 227, 1884, S71 tons, and
| the machine product 4 ,161 POP tons. In
1904 the total production was 232,411,-
7S4 tons and the machine products
I6,743,744 The machine progress is
steady, in 1902 being, 1873 per cent;
1903, 2.27 per cent, and in 1904, 2.9O
per cent. The proportion Of power
used in operating the machinery was
las follows: 1902, compressed air,
69.15 per cent; electricity, 3O.S5 per
cent; 1908, compressed air, 64.O8 per
cent: electricity, 1892 per cent; 1904,
compressed air, 64.24 per cent: cleo.
tricity per cent. The employment of
electricity and mechanical workings
in the mines is at present being studied
by the authorities

CANADA AND JAMAICA.
Annexation of the Island to the Do
mini0n is Again discussed

Annexation of the Island to the Do
miniOn is Again Discussed.
Consul Norman of Three Rivers
writes that for some time the annexa-
ton of Jamaica to Canada has been
the subject of discussion in the Do
minion., His letter follows:
"The establishment of steamship
lines between Canadian ports and
Mexico and a line between England
and the West Indies, with New York
as the calling port, have evidently
qufckened the annexation sentiment.
The president of the West India Elec-
trio company, who has just returned
from a visit to Jamaica, declares him
self convert to the policy of bringing
that island into the Canadian confed-
GRAFTON. He states that such a move
would be highly advantageous to Can
ada, who could supply the island with
everything it requires in the way Of
manufactured goods.
The Jamaicans would be unani-
nous for annexation to Canada if they
can be convinced that it can be ac-
lcomplished without jeopardizing their
banana trade. which is at present
mostly with the United States. They
| fear that if Jamaica were part Of
the Dominion the Americans would
! put a duty on this, one of their most
profitable articles of export This
trade might be diverted to Great Bril-
tain and Canada, for the preferential
duties have directed their sugar to
Canada. The Canadians are finan-
cially interested in the railway in
Kingston and in other enterprises in
the West Indies. Canadians have
gone there for investments as freely
as they have gone to Mevico and to
Cuba.
| Consul Woman further reports
that a deposit of graphite has been
discovered at French Vale, Cape Bre-
ton. Samples analysed were found to
contain 70 per cent of graphite, an
unusually high percentage. The In
tercolonial railway passes within four
miles of the property, while at dis
lance of six miles a splendid harbor
on the Bras dor Lakes is found

The Tailor Bird.

The brilliantly pl,lmed birds Of the
tropical forests are exposed to many
dangers, and If they were. not gifted
with peculiar yet useful instincts they
would fall ready victims to their enc
mics. Chattering monkeys and big
snakes steal and eat their eggs, while
their offspring are proved upon by foes
on every side. But it takes a sly mon
key or snake to get ahead Of the tailor
bird, small East Indian singing bird.
She hides her nest so skillfully that her
enemies cannot find it, no matter how
hard they try. This she does by using
her long, slender bill as needle. With
the tough fiber of a parasitic plant
abundant i'll the tropics, as thread
she sews dead leaf taken from the
end of slender and hanging branch,
and between these leaves she builds
her nests, where neither monkey nor
snake can approach, because the
branch will not bear it's weight. --.

The State Boards Decision.

The state board of heath has
decided that Bemidji cannot
empty it's sewerage into the Mis-
sissippi river unless it builds
septic tanks to partially purify
the water.
This brings the long discussed
question to an end, and to an end
not altogether satisfactory to
this city. Septic tanks, large
enough to care for the sewerage
Of Bemidji, and built also with a
view to an increasing population,
will cost good round sum of
money.
Of course. the city can stand
the cost, but to the people of Be.
midi it looks as though we were
having to suffer simply because
we happen to. be late in getting
our sewerage system in. The
state board is standing for a
principle, that the lakes and
rivers must not be contaminated:
but it is a principle which is
being enforced, apparently, only
against those towns and cities
not fortunate enough to have
built their systems few years
ago. r.
We may be doing the state
board an injustice, if so we shall
be glad to correct it, but until
we hear that other communities,
New Ulm, St. Cloud, Mankato,
Winona, Minneapolis and ST.
Paul, and other river cities are
being forced to install septic
tanks, we will not be convinced.
The argument that Bemidji
will contaminate the water sup
ply Of other cities on the Missis-
sippi seems to us mere talk. 1t
has been proved time and time
again that running water puri-
fies itself in a,yfew miles, and the
waters of the Mississippi would
be purified adozen times over be-
fore they reached Grand Rapids
or Cass Lake.

A Miniature Inland Ocean

One Of the queerest sheets Of water
In New England or within the limits of
the United States, or the world for
that matter, is the celebrated "Snow's
ocean, in the state Of Maine. When
calm it is to all appearances an ordinary
pond of no great dimensions, but OBJ
servations. and Investigations made
more than century ago prove that the
little body Of water is a veritable
ocean. 1t is located in Orrington, near
Bangor, and its popularity is that, al
though situated among some high hills
some distance from ocean or river, it
has tides which rise and fall as regular
~ as do those of. the great Atlantic.
Many so called scientific examinations
of this miniature oceans bed and sur
rounding banks have been made, but
so far no tenable explanation of the
phenomenon has ever been given to the,
public
