A German patent specification de-
scribes a process for preserving milk
by removing all dissolved oxygen by
means of the addition of a small guam
tity of ferrous carbonate. The process
is based ON the fact that freshly-pre-
cipitated ferrous carbonate in the pres
ence Of oxygen Immediately assimilates
oxygen and evolves an equivalent
quantity of carbon dioxide. One part
of ferrous carbonate is sufficient for
$4,000 parts milk, and the properties
of the milk are not altered in any way
by the addition, which should be made
before the milk is boiled.

ANOTHER JAB.

William Randolph Hearst does not
reient in his opposition to William
Jennings Bryan, although the election
is over and the defeat of the Nebra tx
an was made complete almost beyond
the fondest hopes Of the man who or
ganized new party TO prevent the
success of the Commoner. The facile
writer's for the Hearst syndicate dip
their trenchant pens into vitriol aud
place upon asbestos paper the hot
stuff that their master bids them pro:
duce. Alfred Henry Lewis is one of
these calorified scribes; he takes as
his text the recent speech of Mr.
Bryan before the Uniontown dollar
diners. when the Nebraskan dropped
the epigram, "A battle lost-the war
begins" Alfred Henry says this was
an unfortunate remark. as it recalls
Mr.. Bryan's First Battle" book and
emphasizes the completeness Of the de-
feat Of the platform upon which Mr..
Bryan announced he would stand for
ever. but which he has completely for
saken. The Hearst writer makes sport
of the imagery of the Boy Orator of
the Platte and takes big jab at his
present position But he finds this ex-
cnse for Mr. Bryan's attitude now that
the campaign is closed, that his
speeches are financially remunerative.
In this connection he says:
You must not forget that Mr..
Bryan demands and is paid $3.50 per
outburst for speeches Of the Union
town variety, just as would Eddie Foy
or Marie Dressler or any other enter
tainer' for his or her evenings work.
Mr.. Bryan will stop talking when peo-
pie stop paying him $3.50 a night to
talk. And only then. That ought to
be inside year at the most, or, rath-
er. worst"

POE'S GENIUS.

Anent the Poe centenary there has
been lavish flood of eulogy and adul-
alton Of the incorporate, eccentric
unfortunate whose genius was hidden
from his contemporaries by the huge
ness of his failings 1t is a weakness
OF centennial celebrations that they
overlook a good deal and enlarge upon
good deal else; this has been the
case in the present instance and the
multitude of magazine articles and
literary reviews has been almost with
out limit in it's fulsome praise of the
poor fellow whose grievous faults are
now classed as mere eccentricities
One exception to the flattering crit
les is the usually amiable Williams
Dean Howells. who discovers that
there is not much about Poe's work
that he can admire any more thar
there Is about the personality of the
man. Mr.. Howells is very positive
that the best Of Poe's tales would not
now be accepted by the editor Of any
one of the leading magazines. There
are some redeeming featrues In the
poetry of Poe, in the estimation OF
Mr.. Howells. but not one as to his
prose tales. Concluding a detailed

man passes the three score and ten
mark in his iife's journey, a journey
which has been fraught with earnest
effort, but which has been. for the
most part. through ways of pleasant
ness and along paths of peace. For al
most thirty years Bishop Brewer has

The record which he has made Is an
example and an Inspiration; he has
led the way; he has fought the good
fight. And 1t is good to know that
his SEVENTEEN birthday finds this
good man in the full possession of his
faculties and vigorous with the

VOLCANO OF LAGNAS

ERUPTION OF MOUNTAIN IN
PHILIPPINES DAMAGES SUR
ROUNDING COUNTRY.

Manila. Jan. 20.-The volcano of
Lagnas, in the Tayabas province,
which forms the southwestern part of
the island of Luzon, became sudden
ly active between and o'clock last
night. and the eruption seriously dam
aged the surrounding country. No
reports of loss Of life have been re-
celved. Loud reports, detonations
and deep rumblings preceded the
eruption and were heard during the
afternoon.
kilograms received describe the out
break of the volcano as giant ex-
plosion of water The governor of
the province reports by telegraph that
large area of cultivated fields was
destroyed, highways rendered impas-
sable and many bridges ruined.
1t Is believed here that the subter-
ranean rumblings and detonations
warned the people of the coming dan
ger in time for them to flee to the
hills, thus preventing loss of life.
From reports received it appears that
great torrents of water rushed down
the sides of the volcano as a result
Of the eruption.

Chicago, Jan. 19.-Threatened fail

bill has become the subject of heated
discussion at farmers institutes the
country over. Resolutions demanding
action now have been and will be
adopted by many of them and forward

in Chicago. These and other petit
tons received will be forwarded to
members of congress. Advices from
Washington indicate that every ex-

action. Senator Aldrich one day in

entirely redrafted, although amend
ments that meet all objections have
been agreed to, and the next day rails

recent money panic seem to have been
forgotten by congress or nothing could
stop the postal savings bill, which
would bring back into circulation a
large part of 100000 now in hid
clared. THE funds are to be redepos-
tied in the bank nearest the deposit

security, there is no draining Of the
money of one section for benefit Of
another and the buried talents will be

Florida and Noel Of Mississippi, who
have shown the keen interest Of the
south in the measure for which the re-

until congress convened-and which
also was Endorsed by democrats. May

ment Of the proposed measure without
delay, the merits having been given
some 20 years Of consideration with

matter cabled from Japan quoting the
japanese sensationalist press in re-
gard to the anti-Japanese bills pre-
sented to the state legislature In CAL

leading newspapers and American res
idents In Japan, who assert that the
selections sent out were taken from
the columns of the least responsible
newspapers in Japan, whose real char
acter is not understood in the United
States. 1t is declared also that this
was done Intentionally and that the
articles are calculated to rearouse
feelings of bitterness on both sides of
the Pacific ocean. The leading news
papers denounce what they term an
effort to create international unfriend-

MILADrS SLIPPERS.

A Woman's, slippers are at once the
bane and blessing Of her existence
just how much bane and how little
blessing depends probably more on
the manner in which she cares for
them when not using them than on
any other similar circumstance.
A few extra smart women have
taken greedily to a new model of slip
per--the extra high heeled, square,
toed slipper, such as were worn at the
court of that grande monarch, Louis
XIV, king of France. The slipper
looks perfectly beautiful on a small
and slender foot, but the woman with
low ankle and a great, broad foot
should shun them like the plague. for
such one will surely present ludi-
crous appearance in this extra finical
style of footwear.
The newest ones are of patent
leather, but it Is of a dreadfuily ex-
pensive kind that is soft and piable.
However, the women who indulge
themselves in these details of the tot
let are usually able to ignore the mat
ter of expense. Tibet oes are squared
off and the shocking heels are almos t
three inches in height. Across the
front are buckles wide and square,
with square-cut tongues. The entire
design is square, and they are to be
worn for any and every occasion in
the house, aside from q few functions
where the satin dancing slipper is not
absolutely Indispensable. When it is

satin a trifle wider than needed to
exactly cover the old white slipper
and sewed it on. A pink beading. she

analysis of Poe in Harper's Weekly
Mr.. Howells thus sums up the case:
THE simple fact is that Poe was as
lacking in Imagination as he was In
sincerity, and that he vainly endeav-
ored to supply his lack with fancy and
with science. Scientific subjects were
always taking his fancy. which re-
'ponded with inexhaustible fertility
with infinite invention. 1t is wonder
full how much he gets In. but it is not
delightful. and the curse Of unreality
is on all his careful plausibIlity. When
Tourguenief or Tolstoy reports to you
what a man thought or felt In the in
slant of death, you know that it is
true; the fact is of mystical verify;
but you know when Poe tells you a
mesmeric subject spoke after death
that it is not true; 1t would be i'm
possible to explain how you know it,
but it is somehow from your sense that
the Russian masters are sincere artists
and the American master Is not.

keener literary conscience than he
