GOOD MEN ALE.

Those inclined to take a pessimistic view of men and things can have their pessimism removed, so far at least as men are concerned, by read ing the magazines. They are making it evident that the people of this glorious country haven't half reaiiz- ed what a lot of noble, high-nlinded, generous, self-sacrifcing men we have "in our midst.' High f1nanci- CTS, captains of industry, candidates for office and other more or less con spicuous men figure in their pages as all that is grand and desirable in man. None of them has ever hurt a human being, and some of them have never hurt a fly or a mosquito. They have consistently loved their fellow men and have done everything they could to help and uplift them. They have hardly been good enough to themselves, but if that is a sin, they hope to be forgiven because they were so busy in being good to others
 And so forth and so on. Verify this is a good world, and the people of this part of it can't make any mis- take in trusting those who are sc thoroughly, justly and spontaneously written up in the magazines.

WILLIAM R. TYLER.

The death of William R: Tyler of this city at his summer home after a brief illness further reduces the num- ber of active business men who have contributed so nightly to New Ha- ven's commercial integrity and indus trial growth He was a very modest man and mingled shyly with others, but where he felt himself known and where speech could not be con- strued as obtrusive, he was a man of many delightful traits of character and firm conviction. A great lover of animal life it was in the care of them that he revealed the sweetness of his nature. This is a world of many men and many temperaments and such a manhood and such a temperament as MT. Tyler possessed are needed to il- illuminate one side of life and make us the more clearly understand how little after all the best rounded of us real ize the actual scheme of it. His afflict- ed family may be assured that they have the profound sympathy of a large number of persons who accurately measured his worth.

cut sadly needs. That party in power gives the best account of it's steward ship which stands most in fear of re- pudiation from an alert and well led opposition.
 MT. Chatheld, an estimable gentle man, owes his nomination, as do his associates, to the will of a compact, able and aggressive political machine, but machine just the same. The convention which met to place them in nomination possessed theoretical power only; it was body called to register an approval of the conference of leaders held some time ago. Who'll ly aside from the eligibility of MT. Chatfield for the office of mayor, or the eligibility of his associates, their nomination can in no sense of the word be said to respond to the de- mands of Democratic or Republican principles of government. We do not wish to be understood as criticising machine rule in New Haven for the sensational pleasure of doing so, We admit that the Republican machine is an exceedingly able institution and perhaps a cleaner and more patriotic one than is usually the case, but it is machine nevertheless; its very suc- cess and it's calm domination of the Republican party organization is of itself an affront to Democratic pre- cepts and institutions. There is no harm in saying so, and we are not prepared to say that the continuance in power of the machine is a ruinous thing for the city of New Haven. We are only sure that it is deliberate self deception to accept it's decrees as those made of popular fancy and en- lthusiasm. It's cold business.

International Money,

(From the New York Tribune)
 It is safe to prophecy, however, that international money will not be coined until the International Postal Union has accomplished three things-name- ly, proved the usefulness of response coupons, reduced the cost of the inter- national clearinghouse to a minimum after some experience, and finally is sued higher denominations of response coupons at the lowest possible figure, Should it prove practicable to issue even S1 international postage stamps at a price approximating the quota tions of foreign exchange, such stamps would virtually be world money. When we consider the effect which a success ful trial of such stamps would have upon the fortunes of the money chang CTS, there is small risk in predicting that the Postal Union will not be al- lowed to make the experiment without great opposition,

MORE BIC IRRIG4TTNG.

The world isn't exhausted yet. It isn't even improved as 1t can be and will be. But they are on the edge of improvement in this and some other countries Irrigation has begun in this country, and 1t is going to begin in New South Wales. The construction of a huge dam has begun on the Mur- rumbidgee river, at a place called Bar ren Jack, and from this source irriga- tion canals will supply, approximate ly, a million and half acres of coun- try. The scheme, with canals, land re- sumptions, and other extras, including the purchase of two small copper mines, will cost, it Is estimated, $7,500,- 900, or at the rate of about $5 for ev- cry acre rescued That part Of south ern New South Wales known as the Riverlna includes much of the best country in Australia, and with good water-supply would be admirably adapted for closer settlement. It is on ly eighteen hours by rail from Sydney At present the land consists largely of sheep-walks But all this is to be changed. By the agency of the dam an inland sea of some twenty square miles is to be brought into being around a spot which at the present time is mere- ly deep gorge with feeble and inter- mlttent stream wandering in it's depths. The gorge is three hundred yards across, with cliffs a thousand feet high on each side. It is granite facing granite, and the effect Is ma jestic, The two promontories are styled respectively Barren Jack and Black Andrew, and from the former of these the undertaking has taken it's name. The hills are to be linked by the dam which, when completed, will be two hundred feet high by nine hundred feet long.
 The desert of Sahara may yet be a rose-garden, or a vegetable garden.

MoDERA1IoN AND MITIGATION

''The moderately wealthy in New York have found it hard to live in a pleasant way, and a new hotel costing about $12,OOO,O00 has been put up to ac- commodate some of them. One of its patrons will pay a yearly rental of $3O,- 900 for a suite of rooms. Others have taken suites at $15,OOO, and other rooms in the hotel are said to have been leased to permanent occupants at cor responding prices.
 Of course the immoderately wealthy in New York don't have to live in ho- tels and other cheap places such as the one spoken of above. It is inter- esting to notice that coincldent with this alleviation of the lot of the mod erately wealthy comes the announce ment of the completion of a new Mills

SOME BROFHERLY LOVE.

Philadelphia is the City of Brother ly Love. The other day in that city a negro moved his furniture into a house in "a white neighborhood" !" Then he escorted his wife and several children to the dwelling. He show ed every sign of meaning to stay. The next night he moved his furniture out again. He escorted his wife and children out. He showed every sign of meaning to stay out. Several thousand white neighbors had appear ed in front of his door and had re- marked that they did not think they would like him to be a neighbor of theirs, No one in the crowd said why they objected to him. He asked no one.
 The Charleston News and Courier is on the lookout for such incidents as this, and it has noticed this one. It says of it that such an incident might happen but never has happened in At lanta, New Orleans or Charleston. Ii says that the demonstration was one of mob law, that the mob was much larger than the ordinary southern '1ynching party" and that the negro was deprived of his rights under the law and interrupted in the pursuit ot happiness without any exertion on the part of the Philadelphia police to pre- vent it. It adds that such incidents prove the iron determination of the North to press the negro back to the South, and they reveal the cynical hy. pocrisy of the people who, forever protesting their philanthropic senti. ment for an inferior race, would set its members starve rather than be af fiicted by their presence.
 There is at least as much truth a, poetry in the News and Courier's com ments. All the hypocrites don't liv' in the South.

Professor de Launay says that there is in Bulgaria group of natural col umns much like the Giants Causeway in Ireland. On the edge of a plateau in the open country rises this forest of natural columns, which gives the impression of an antique ruin. The columns, which are about fifteen to twenty feet high, are absolutely cylin- drical, and they are often as much as three feet thick. The stratiication of the rock resembles jcints, and vertical erosion due to rain has formed Doric fittings.

Move About a Little.

(From the Youths Companion)
 There is something impressive in the story of lifetime of persistent toll. But there is another point of view which deserves respect The gad- about may be a useless member of so- ciety, but the stay-at-home is likely to be narrow one We find ourselves on this little planet, with its oceans and mountains and mighty rivers and wide prairies We know not whence we came nor if we shall ever pass this way again. Surely we may do our task better in our own appointed place if we look about the world, feed our minds with the glories of nature and discover how men and women before us have lived their lives and embodied their aspirations in the great arts of build- ing and painting and sculpture. The wheat fields and the ledger and the cooking stove are facts of human life; but so are the Cologne Cathedral the Sistine Madonna, the Canadian Rockies and the Valley of the Yellow | stone.

The preservation of wood with sul- phur, applied in liquor form, is gain ing special favor in Germany. The material completely fills the cell spaces of the fibre, and at moderate tempera- lures it is little affected by water, acids and alkaline solutions though it oxidizes readily at high temperatures. Poplar is best adapted for this treat ment, results with oak and pine being less satisfactory.

Wrong-doers in China bring misfor- tune on all their relatives. Not long ago man murdered Gov, An Min of Anhui. The murderer himself was caught and beheaded and now the law demands that his female relatives be sold into slavery, that his male rela- tives sixteen years old and above be decapitated and that his male relatives younger than that be compelled to serve in the imperial palace. The ancestral graves of the rebel are also to suffer. The tombs are to be razed and despoiled and the bones and dust within scattered to the four winds. It is hoped, however, that the authori- ties will not exact the full penalty of the law.
