A MARTYR PRESIDENTS SON.
Professor Harry A. Garfield, Who Is to
Become Head of Williams COLLEGE,.

1t was twenty-six years ago in June
that the late President James A. Gar
field was shot by Guiteau while ON his
way to attend a reunion of his class at
Williams college, Williamstown, Mass.
Williams has always been especially
identified With the Garfield family in
the public mind on account of Pres
tdent Gartield's graduation from it and
its association with his tragic death.

SOME BABY DoN'Ts.

Don't rock babies; it Injuries the
brain.
Don't tease babies; it will make them
cross.
Don't trot babies; it disturbs the
whole system.
Don't ronlp with babies; it excites
the brain too much
Don't dress babies stylishly: it is
cruel to adorn a rose.
Don't wake babies up to show them;
they need all the sleep they can get.
Don't let too many strangers handle
babies; it will spoil their disposition.
Don't put too many clothes on babies
in hot weather; it will cause prickly
heat
Don't forget to give cool water often;
it is the only thing to quench thirst
and ward off fever
Don't put long clothes on any baby;
the weight has killed dozens of babies.

1rOM the earth, astronomers
throughout the world are training their
telescopes upon the red planet In the
hope of obtaining more satisfactory
evidence that our stellar neighbor is
inhabited by intelligent beings. Scien-
tific interest chiefly centers in the work
of the expedition which Professor Per
cival Lowell sent to South America.
Professor David Todd, the noted as
tronomer of Amherst university, is In
charge of the party, which has ascend
ed to the summit of the Andes, where
the air is perfectly clear. to make OBJ
servations and take photographs OF
Mars.
Cable dispatches already have brought
the information that Marian Photog-
rapher L. G.. Slipher has succeeded in
obtaining some highly satisfactory pho
tographs of the planet, showing the so
called canals, GASES and other features.
The Photographic apparatus was spe-
cially prepared for this work, and Mr..
Slipher was trained for his task by the
director of the Lowell observatory at
Flagstaff, Ariz.
Professor Lowell, who finances the
expedition, is the worlds greatest au-
thority on Mars. He has studied the
planet for years and has made many
valuable photographs of Its various
phases He has expressed the belief
that Mars is the dwelling place of a
race of beings of a much higher intel
ligence than man. According to Pro-
fessor Lowell, the intricate network of
lines on the surface of the planet dis
covered in 1877 by the italian astrono-
mer Schiaparelli and by him pronounc-
ed to be canals constitutes Il vast irri-

Will PUBLISH ATLAS
Great Chicago Firm to Publish
Complete County Atlas.
WORK WILL BE THOROUGH
Review Has Made Contract by Which
It Secures Right to Publish all
illustrations for the Work

Mr. Charles S. Vanderhoof has been
sent to Denison to take charge of the
work of the new proposed atlas of
Crawford county. He represents the
firm of Geo. A. Ogle & Co.. the
largest publishers of county aliases
in the United States. Several other
representatives of the firm will be
here to commence active operation in
the near future. Mr. Vanderhoof is
here to interview many of our leading
citizens regarding the undertaking, an
he reports that the enterprise is meet
ing with cordial support. There has
never been published an atlas of
Crawford county. and the proposed
work is one which is badly needed
The work if completed will include
plats of every block and addition to
the city of Denison. and detailed
plats of every other town and village
in Crawford county. 1t will also in
clude detailed plats of every section
of land in Crawford county by town
ships, showing in detail everything
ON the surface of the ground that it is
possible to plat The whole matter
as yet is merely a matter of expert
ment. but in case it is successful the
citizens of Crawford county can rest
assured that it will be the most ac-
curate, complete and elaborate work
ever compiled in this portion of the
state. The firm comes with the
highest testimonials and press notices
and it is TO be hoped that the under
taking can be carried to a successful
completion. The enterprise is one
which merits the hearty support of
every man who is interested in the
welfare of Crawford county. There
are to be many elaborate departments
of the atlas which the Review will re-
fer to in the near future.
One of the most interesting and
important departments of the new
atlas is to be an Illustration Depart
ment". devoted to portraits of lead
ing citizens of Crawford county. to-
gether with views of residences. bust
ness houses, farm homes. public
buildings. and other views of interest
1t is the intention to make this de-
partment very elaborate. and the pub
fishers of the atlas are offering to in
sert all views of this kind absolutely
4 free of charge. They make no
/ charges whatever for engraving or
I inserting illustrations. the only re-
aulrement being that subscribers for
the atlas furnish photos of sucn views,
buildings or portraits as they may
desire. The Review has completed
arrangements with the publishers
where by the Review is to be fur
nished with all the Illustrations pre-
pared for the atlas, and from time to
time all of these illutrations will be
published in the columns of the Re
view. The concern which is doing this
work has been in business for 25
years. and is thoroughly reliable and
responsible. Such a work as they
are preparing of Crawford county will
certainly be of great value. and Mr.
Vanderhoof and his assistants should
receive the hearty support and coop
