CHOICE MISCELLANY
where Children Are Scarce.

The 3.G4O persons entered on St
Louis social register have but 2I7
children. the term children includ-
ing boys under twenty and girls un-
der seventeen years Of age. This is
the showing of the 1909 register, just
out. 1t is about one child to every
thirteen adults. The record further
shows that the average society family
which has children at all-and on
page after page of the book not a
child's name appears-has two chill
dren. Those with three are compara-
lively few. and only half a dozen
families have more than three. Di-
viding two-fifths. the ratio at large,

appears that children are more than
FIVE times as scarce in the social reg

Ancient Dynamite.

One of the steam shovels engaged In
work on the Panama canal, in the Op-
Grafton of which more than 300 en-
ployees were engaged, recently lifted
out a quantity of dynamite which Is
described in an official report as being
"more than Il bushel." What would
have happened if the shovel had struck
the dynamite instead of the earth
around it is easy to imagine. The ex-
plosive was in sticks three-quarters OF
an inch in diameter and five inches
long. and the cartridges bore the trade
mark of a French manufacturer of
dynamite and a date which appeared
to be Nov. 30, 1887. Unquestionably
the dynamite was put in by the French
and either failed to explode or was
abandoned when the work ceased. The
dynamite appeared to be in perfect

With both houses of Congress
in session and both the President

with the addition of three num-
erously attended important con
ventions, discussing waterways,
forest conservation and other
matters of the greatest national
Importance, there is so much to
write about that the main diff
Guilty is one of selection.
The President and the Presi-
dent-elect, as is we'll known, are
the closest of friends. The lat
ter bears a relation to the former
that is closely analogous to that
of heir apparent, or crown prince.
He is politically the well-beloved
son of the former, although they
are nearly the same age, Presi-
dent Roosevelt being less than a
year older than Judge Taft. But
so busy has President Roosevelt
been, talking and scolding, and
so much occupied has Judge Taft
been in dining, breakfasting and
lunching with his many friends
and discussing political questions
with Speaker Cannon and the
members of the Ways and Means
committee, that he and the Pres
ident have not been able to spend
a minute together. In a few days
Judge Taft will go south to Au-
gusta, Ca, where he will be the
guest of a prominent and wealthy
southerner, and where he viii
remain a greater part of the time
until the fourth of March. Ther
he will, of course, take up a tenn
porary residence, for four years
at least, in the White House
while the President will cross the
seas and deserts and plunge intt
the depths of the Dark Continent
where politics and visiting dele
cations will trouble him no more
Judge Taft has expressed the
belief that the House of Repre-
sentatives would make an honest
and thorough revision of the tar
| iff at the extra session, which he
is pledged to call for tariff revls'
