Will Examine Claims.

A special government coal inspector,
G. B. Morgan, arrived yesterday from
Duluth In accordance with the re
quests of President Roosevelt, he has
been sent to this district to examine the
12O or more claims on which patents
are held up because of coal deposits
He will inspect these claims and in
those where the land is chiefly valuable
for agricultural purposes, he will recon-
mend that the patents be granted. The
work will take him some time.

from coal there is left a residue known
as coke, which has considerable market
value. Heretofore the difficulty in the
use of Ignite for the production of gas
has been that the carbon remaining be-

but broke up into small particles which
were of no commercial value. There

system for the manufacture of gas,
known as the producer-gas method. As

Blond Hair Tonic.

A hair tonic that is extra fine for
blond hair Is made by mixing one
dram Of bisulphate Of quinine. seven
ounces of listerine and half an ounce
Of tincture Of cantharides. Apply this
lotion to the scalp twice a day. When
using any hair tonic, remember that
it is not so much the amount that you
spatter over your flowing tresses that
counts as it is the amount that you
force your pores to absorb.

MISS MARY HARTMAN WILL
RUN A FARM.

Volumes have been written in eulogy
of the late Z. H. Hartman and in ad-
miration Of his achievements, but quite
too little attention has been paid to
his daughter, Miss Mary Hartman. Tie
prospective heiress to millions, she Is
turning her hack on society, cz5tng
Newport and its frivolities out of her
list and is going to run a farm.
According to the news, Miss Harri-
man viii devote he personal attention
to the management of the farm Of a.
900 acres which is a part of the H&rri-
man estate and is located at Arden. 1t
viii be no child's play TO run it. She
will have 400 labOrers to oversee and
will have to conduct personally the
business of the 100000 company which
is operating a dairy in connection with
the farm property. Miss Hartman,
who has an eye out for dividends, as did
her distinguished parent, hopes to in
crease the returns Of the dairy com

she hopes to bring 1000 acres rore of
the farm under the pillow this year. Al
ready more than 5000 acres are Guilt
waited.
Miss Harriman's example is TO be
commended. 1t is TO be commended
especially for the increasing member of
the idle rich young persons who waste
their substance in idleness. 1t has its
lesson, too, for others. It would seem
that the Hartman family had the
right sort of bringing up and was i'm
bued with the idea of not being afraid
of hard work. Apparently Miss Harri-
man is not in sympathy with the trend
of population from the farm to the citv
and believes there is a great field for
useful and enjoyable activity "a agri-
culture. Presumably, she will be a real
farmer and viii attend the farmers

join in the movements for the uplift
Of the rural population. Her expert

AN APPEAL IN THE STREET
RAILWAY REGULATION CASE.

Commenting recently on the decision
of Police Justice Mullowny in the street
car regulation case, this newspaper ex-
pressed the opinion that his honor was
in error in his conception of the law.
The statute gives the interstate com
mission authority to prevent, among
other things, overcoming of cars Jus
tice Mullowny held that as a prelimi-
nary to exercise of that power, the
commission must make regulations fix
ing the exact limit of reasonabieness.
The Times observed on this point:
II seems that II Judge Mullowny
were sitting on a rate case he would
require that the commission prescribe
the specific rate before he would as
sumo jurisdiction 10 interfere. Yet
Congress and the courts have imposed
no such requirement. carrier makes
it's own rates; If they are proved "un-
Just and unreasonable" the shipper
can collect reparation TO the extent
of the o~vercharge beyond a just and
reasonable rate, and the rate must be
withdrawn and the Just and reason
able one substituted.
Following this line OF reasoning,
the conclusion seems inevitable that
Viz OEANNAAEANMA ~ " AAA6 81
the street car act is not required to be
prescribed by the commission in ad-
vance. but is left a matter for proof
in case of complaint The street car
authorities are presumed to be eX-
Derts. just as the rate-makers or the
railroads are presumed TO be experts.
The law hedges them about with no
multiplicity and complication of reg
ulations. 1t simply says in one case
that every unjust or unreasonable"
rate shall be prohibited; In h other,
that "Overcrowding" is prohibited.
Justice Mullowny doubtless is a bet
ter lawyer than The Times, but it is
a matter of some qualification TO know
that the legal authorities and the Com
missioners of the District, and also the
Interstate Commerce Commission, com
pletely agree with The Times view.
Both the Commissioners of the District
and the interstate body have given I'M
qualified approval to the view set forth
by The Times, and they propose that
the case decided by Justice Mullowny
shall be appealed forthwith. 1t may
be determined that, as a means to Sc
curing immediate action. regulations
shall be prescribed by the Interstate
Commerce Commission; but If this is
done, it viii involve no concession that
Justice Mullowny is right. On the
other hand, the appeal viii be prosecut-
ed Just as vigorously with the purpose
of demonstrating that the responsibility
IS upon the street railway authorities

keep regulations and practices within
the legal definition of reasonable"

MANS PROGRESS AS SHOWN
ON THE HUDSON.

1t was a spectacular lesson in the
progress of civilization-of mans
growth in power over the clements
that the recent naval parade at New
York afforded.
Three hundred years ago the Half
Moon, a little sailing vessel of less
than 100 tons, was thought TO be a
model of strength and swiftness. But
on Saturday it was remarked that
they could have lifted the copy of her
that was in the parade and slowed it
away comfortably on the desk Of any
one of a dozen warships. A little
bump from the American battleship
Kansas would have smashed her into
smitbereens. A vessel like the great
British cruiser battleship ~In1exible,
which brought Admiral Sir Edward
Seymour across the Atlantic in time
fairly rivaling that of the flying Lusi-
tania, would make the Clermont APP
pear to be anchored. Yet back only in
1898, during the Columbian celebration,
the old wsrships of the Drake and
Texas period were exciting wonder ard
admiration.
In the race now going on the coun-
tries Of Hudson and Fulton are the
leading rivals. The fame of Hudson
is matched by that of Peary and Cook
and Shaekleton, while the fame of Full
ton is well maintained by the builders
of the great liners and warships that
have made the flags of England and
the United States respected the world
over.

The DECAY OF
THE SPIRIT OF WONDER.

Our extended acquaintance with the
world has always depended IN our five
senses. and n sixth instinct-wOnder.
The prelude to all our victories has
been the phrase II wonder" The same
spirit of curiosity hat makes the baby
lick the red paint of his blocks TO see
what it tastes like, and the small boy

a mystery Of disjointed springs and
wheels, has sent the man stumbling TO
the ends Of the earth, Prying into his
own insides, and initiating the birds.
The results always surprised him, and
he relished the sense OF wonder.
But nowadays men are not surprised
at much Of anything. The old world
has grown as familiar as ones own
pocket. The top o the world has been
visited, the air can be reclined on, and
mountainous are picnic resorts. It
probably indicates that man is so sure
of his powers that when he announces
he Is going 10 do a thing, he is going
10 do il. and there is no occasion for
wonder. The new kind Of surprise will
be that he can even think OF anything
else TO do. But, really. Is there any dis
covery that would cause a sense Of
awed wonder in the American people
