The Secret of the Maple.

No thoughtful person who has ever
visited a maple grove in the early
spring while snow banks are yet lin
gering in sheltered hoilows and has
seen pailful after pailful of sweet sap
drawn from the auger holes in the
Shapely trunks can have failed to Won
der what forces govern the flow of the
sap. When the warm sun touches the
treetops the flow increases A rise of
few degrees in temperature often
causes a great increase Of flow, if the
rise passes the zero point on the cen
tigrade scale-that is. the freezing point
of water. But a considerable change of
temperature in which the fluctuations
do not cross the zero line causes no
marked change in the flow of sap. Dr.
X. NJ. Wiegand, discussing these and
other related facts in the American
Naturalist, reaches the conclusion that
neither expansion of gas in the wood
nor expansion of water nor expansion
of wood itself is the underlying cause
of the pressure which produces the
flow, but that this pressure arises from
the effects of temperature in altering
the osmotic permeabiIity Of the pith
raw cells.

The Battle of RedondR.

Not far from ST. Thomas, a matter of
perhaps a hundred miles, was fought
the most wonderful naval battle in all
history. The Dutch admiral detected
the enemy in the early morning, when
the sea was covered with a thick mist,
and his guns opened fire at once with
out warning. The fire was returned
with interest, the ocean fairly CULVER
Ing with spasms caused by the shock
or frequent discharges Somehow OF
other the enemy's shots, which sound
ed like a bombardment, seemed to fall
short or go wide of the mark, for not
even a splash OF bail was heard, and
the Dutch ships remained unscathed.
On the other hand. the Dutch could not
see the terrible execution their guns
were doing until nearly the middle Of
the forenoon, when the fog lifted, re-
veaIing TO their astonished gaze not the
vessels of the enemy, but great rock
standing out of the sea. They had been
firing at it for FIVE hours, and the sound
Of the return shots they heard was the
echo from the solid wall of granite.
They named the place Redonda, which
means sent, rolled or driven back, and
Redonda it is TO this day.

Street Car Rules Of Rie.

Scarcely had 1 done 50 when the con-
ductor requested me 10 transfer to n
second class car whenever il might
come along, because no one is allowed
to carry anything greater than lap
satchei first class. So I humbly de-
scended and had either to mix with
market women and sweaty laborers or
to take a tilbury. A tilbury, named
after the English maker who years
ago introduced IL, is a curious two

old fashioned gig, and resembles a
hanson without the attachment for
the driver. He sits inside the tilbury.

SNEADS.
SaecfaI to The Journal.

Sneads, Jan. 21.-It was with the
most sincere regret that the citizens
of Jackson county learned of the
resignation of Judge Francis b. Car
ter from the circuit bench of the
First District.
It is safe to say that the duties OF
a circuit judge are the most important
of the judicial branch of our state and
it makes it almost imperative that
we should have not only men who
are recognized as being fully cOmpe-
tent but those who possess that Chris
tan character which is recognized by
everyone in Judge Carter. If increaS-
ing the salary would keep him in the
position he now holds it would be
we'll to double it. With the small sal
airy now paid our judges We cannot
hope to keep men Of ability but a
short time and there seems to be no
remedy except a constitutional con-
vention.
The last primary showed conclu-
sively that a majority of the voters
are totally ignorant of the Importance
of paying our judges a living salary.
If it was worth $3.50 per annum to
serve as circuit judge ten years ago
it is worth $4,000 now, for it is recOg-
niZed that the work has increased
even in greater proportion.
No one blames Judge Maxwell,
Judge Reeves or Judge Carter for
resigning, for man owes his first
duty to his family; yet we might
have had either of these able men on
the bench if the judgeship paid
enough to hold men of ability.

The Incomes of
Escanbia County Offices.

In The Journals editorial Sunday
morning on The Fee System VS.,
Official Salaries" reference was made
among other things TO the income OF
the office of Circuit Clerk of Escambia
county and it was stated that this
Office probably yields a gross income
TO the circuit clerk of not less than
$4,000 a year.
Circuit Clerk A NJ Mcmillan in
forms The Journal that this is an
error and that the gross income OF
the office amounts to only $4,000 OF
$4,000. Out of this, of course, as The
Journal stated, the clerk pays for the
help necessary to handle the work
IF the Office.
The amount of money that county
officer receives, however. whether n
he large pr small, is only one OF the
clements which enter into the ques
ion of changing the fee system OF
compensation for public officers to a
salary system, and We shall proceed
in the future to discuss this phase
