The civil marriage Of Prince George
of Greece, second son Of the king OF
Greece, and high commissioner for the
powers in Crete, and Princess Marie
Bonaparte, whose trousseau has been
the talk of Paris, took place at the
Marie at Passy In the French capital.
The equal Of the brides trousseau has
not been seen in Paris since the advent
of the third republic. There are sixty
five different costumes, dozen hats, q
profusion Of costly furs and sables,
acres of linens and piles of dainty lin
gerie. The lingerie alone cost $4,000.

European Labor Leaders Alarmed
Over Increase in Homecoming
Contingent.
STEAMSHIPS ARE LOADED DOWN
Hundreds Of Destitute Aliens Wan
dering Streets Of Paris on
Verge Of Destitution.

The increasing contingents OF home
coming Italians, Lithuanians and other
Mediterranean steerage passengers are
disconcerting not only to the steamship
companies, who have Inadequate facill-
ties for dealing with such sudden and
unexpected traffic, but to the labor
leaders Of Europe, who deny that these
newcomers have sufficient money to
pass the winter without working, and
declare that they will thus add to the
misery of what is sure to be hard win
ter among the European working
classes.
The figures given by the French la
Dor bureau as to the returning emil
grants are corroborated by Nicholas
Martin, agent Of the American line,
who says that all the steerage capacity
of every vessel has been taken until
Feb. /, while thousands more will be
spring. If this keeps up, a Paris CORE
spotdent says, some special measures
must be taken to repatriate the hordes
Of disappointed adventures, for the
ordinary means are insufficient.
ITO my knowledge several hundred
Of more or less destitute aliens are wan
dering in the streets Of Paris on the
verge of starvation, and the prefecture
police books will probably multiply this
figure by three" said one Of the officials
at the ministry Of works to the CORE
spondent. ''The best we can do is to
expedite their return to their native
countries. Something like half Of them
have no more money than is barely
sufficient to pay their fare"
Never since the first ship sailed out
Of New York harbor has there been any
thing like the present exodus of emf
grants from that port. Day by day the
crowds clamoring for transportation
abroad grow greater, with no prospect
Of their reduction in numbers.

INDIAN RIVER PIRATES.

How They Dtsguise Their Real Puf-
pose-Malke Some Big Hauls.
There is little doubt that the gentry
responsible for the long series of crimes
and offenses against river-bound trade
are In every sense of the word pirates.
There are several gangs, whose methods
are known to the police, and Of these
four stand out prominently. The first
is known az the Bunphur gang, other
wise Umllas, who hail from Gya and
Benares.
These men are all Hindus. They
swoop down from the upper reaches OF
the river and hire or purchase large
passenger dinghy, generally q green
boat. Eight, sometimes ten, OF the
gang pose az oarsmen, and In addi-
ton a considerable number travel In
side the deckhouse to personate pas-
sengers. A license IL procured and
the arrangements are complete. The
spots selected for operation are general
" lonely places in the river.
when coming into Calcutta from 1
distance, loaded cargo boats frequently
have to anchor for the night or to
await the change Of the tide No watch
il kept, except, perhaps, in rare In
stances, and the pirates range alongside
and demand their booty. This Is fro

gle. But even when resistance IL Of

WORK OF IRRIGATION.
New Plans Adopted Contemplate
Many improvements.

Many improvements.
In the irrigation division of the Ag-
ricultural Department the three main
lines Of work wilrbe, as heretofore, dis
semination Of practical information.
scientific and technical Investigations,
and reporting on irrigation conditions
In certain districts. In view Of the fact
that probably about 100000 acres of
land provided with water for irriga-
ton will be available for settlement at
the close Of 1908, it is believed that in
no other way can more good be done
than in supplying practical information
through publications and expert adj
vice to the new settlers on this land,
and it Is therefore deemed advisable
to broaden the scope of this work so
as to make it valuable to every class
Of farmers dependent upon irrigation
and to every project, whether public or
private.
The\scientif1c and technical investiga-
lions will be continuation and extern
sion of what has already been done.
Prominent features Of the work will be
to determine what becomes of the large
quantity Of water which is annually
spread over cropped soils, involving a
study Of evaporation, seepage and dis
tribution Of losses, with a view to Sc
curing higher economy in the use Of
water; the relation of irrigation water
to quantity and quality Of crop and the
adaptation of methods to different soils
and crops, and study of the, more
technical features of the measurement,
conveyance, storage and distribution Of
water on farms, and the various de-
vices used for pumping
In the study Of irrigation conditions
In different localities emphasis is to be
laid especially on possible improve
ments Of present methods which will
lead to more economical use Of water.

THE MINERAL EXHIBIT
 OF THE ARIZONA FAIR
Manager Goodwin of That Depart nent Desires That 1t Be Supple mented.

The following letter has been sent out by James c. Goodwin manager 9f the mineral department - of the terri torial fair to those identified with the mining industry:
 We are very desirous of supple menting the minerals already received for exhibition at the Arizona terri torial fair. and of having represented in this department all the minerals found within the territory of Arizona. We now have represented most of the common minerals. but it is our desire to have more of the rare minerals such as molidium, tungston, vana- dium. quick silver ores and any other ores that Arizona produces.
 The Fourth Arizona fair opens No vcmber 9 and closes November 14, 1908.
 All exhibits should be carefully marked. if more than one exhibit or class of ore is sent from the same mine, or from various mines owned by the same owner or company. The same class of minerals should be marked with the same number; that is to say. all pieces from one vein carrying the same value should be marked No. 1, if different from the same vein No. 2, and so on; but if only one exhibit is sent from a mine and another exhibit is sent from an- other claim owned by the same party or company. the first might be mark ed No. 1 and the second No. 2, to iden- tify them.
 A letter should accompany the min erals sent by party or company, and in this letter should be the numbers corresponding with the ore or exhibit. Each number should be followed by the county. the district, the owner the name of the mine and the values.
 All exhibits in this department. de- noted as permanent exhibits, will be transported free from any railroad point in Arizona. The ores should be boxed. or. if the specimens are large, covered with burlap. so that they may

be transported and handled without being damaged; and all the prospector or company will have to do is to box and ship their mineral to J. c. Good win, Manager Mineral Department Arizona Fair. Phoenix, Arizona. Mark Mineral Exhibit" and send the freight bill collect, and we will take care of it at this end.
 Ore should be accompanied by a sample of the hanging and foot wall. Each exhibit should he from F to IA inches long. about inches thick and 8 inches wide, though exhibits either larger or smaller will be accepted. but the best display will be made if all are about the size mentioned above.
 Where there are rich streaks of ore running through gang. better dis play will be made by sending the ore associated with the gang than to break it up to try to show rich streaks.
 All minerals will be given a prom inent position and labeled in such a manner that they can be found i'm mediately.
 All private exhibits placed on exhi- bition in this department will be care fully guarded and returned after the fair.

THE EDUCATION
 OF TIE FARMER
Clifford Pinchot's Views Expressed in Letter to the irrigation Congress.

Washington, Sept. 25-(Special cor respondence of The Republican).- United States Forester, Clifford Pin chot. has written a letter of regret that he is unable to attend the National IT, rigation congress. which opens at AL buquerque, N. M, on September 29. here, is as follows:
 Hon. Frank c. Goudy.
 President, Sixteenth National Irriga- tiOn Congress,
 Albuquerque, N. Mex.
 My dear Judge Goudy:
 As I have already written you. I regret more than I can easily say that l cannot be with you at Albuquerque this year. For a number of years past 1 have attended every session of the National Irrigation congress, and at the more recent ones I have been hon. ored as the bearer of a message from the president, whose interest in irri- gation never flags. This fall, under his orders, I am trying to do certain work on the National Conservation, and the commission on country life, and that is why 1 am unable to come.
 Ever since I came to have first hand knowledge of irrigation. I have been impressed with the peculiar advant- ages which surround the irrigation rancher. The high productiveness of irrigated land, resulting in small farm units and denser settlement, as well as the efficiency and alertness of the ir- rigator, have combined to give the ir- rigated regions very high rank among the most progressive farming commu- mites of the world. Such rural com munities as those of the irrigated west are useful examples for the consider ation of regions in which life is more isolated, has less of the benefits of CO., operation, and generally has lacked the stimulus which has sent the men whom this congress represents so far along on the road to the ideal country life. It is for this reason that I ven ture to send you the following consid- erations bearing on the work of the presidents commission on country life because you have gone so far on the road he wants others to follow.
 The object of education in general is to produce in the boy or girl and so in the man or woman, three results. First. a sound, useful, and usable body; second, a flexible, well-equipPed. and well-organized mind: alert to gain in
