lous naval men, ten of whom were be- ing treated with injections of mercury, and two who were not. The report that he now makes in the same pubIi- cation on the same cases, ten months later, will undoubtedly be received with greater enthusiasm by medical men far and wide, and will attract attention at once throughout the civilized world
 Dr. Wright says that of the two pa tients not under mercury treatment when the previous paper was published but who have taken it indifferently and irregularly since then, one is improv- ing and one failing, the latter having had rather severe typhoid fever in August, 1908. Of the ten on mercury at the last report six have been cured. two markedly improved, and one im- proved and one failed-this latter case having been complicated with ty- phoid.

Principal Retires After
 Teaching 67 Years

New York, July Most of the crowd that overflowed the assembly rooms in Public School 16 in West Thirteenth street at the commencement exercises yesterday was there to show it's ap- preciation for Josiah H. Zabriskie, the retiring principal, who has said good bye officially to more graduating class es than has any other man in New York city. The class which was grad uated yesterday was the forty-second one to receive diplomas from him in that very school
 Before he came to this school he had spent fully twenty-five years teaching the boys who went to old No. Al, down in Greenwich street. That makes MT. Zabriskie's service to the public schools of Manhattan cover a period of sixty seven years. And yet every teacher in No. 16 declares that MT. Zabriskie seems to have just reached the height of his powers and is probably the most up to date principal in town

 Brussels. July Through the In- ternal Social Bureau, the pulse of the European socialist organization can be felt the terrible earnestness with which the Socialists of every European country are opposing the visit of Nicholas III to England.
 The opposition in each of the coun- tries which Nicholas will visit is being compactly organized; demonstrations are being made in pu3lic; and the Socialist press is animadverting against the wrongs of the Russian people and the oppression by the government.
 England and Sweden are already aroused over the issue. the latter more especially since the killing of Major General Beckwith last week by an as- sassin who admitted that a conspiracy was under way to kill the Czar during the European trip. In Italy a move ment has been started by the Socialists to hiss the Czar if he appears in public in Italy. The Socialist members of the Italian legislation are opposed to the visit of the Czr

GROWING IMPORTANCE OF CORN. How MT Tilden's Forecast has Been Realized
From New York Letter to the Phila.
 delphia Public Ledger.


 At the time of the Civil War patri- otic orators who were of the North acclaimed and patriotic poets wrote alleged poetry, in which it was set forth that King Cotton had been supplanted by King Corn. But after the Civil War was ended, and the demoralization consequent upon re- construction had been in some meas ure eliminated, King Cotton again asserted his supreme authority. In 1877 Samuel J. Tilden returned from a summer soJourn in Europe. After the electoral commission declared that Rutherford B. Hayes had re- ceived one more electoral vote for president than Gov Tilden, the de- feated candidate decided to sojourn in Europe during the summer months. On the evening of day in, September, when the first frost of that autumn was chilling the air, Gov Tilden addressed a very large throng who assembled in front of his house in Gramercy park to welcome him home. He did not touch upon American politics. His theme was the development of our commerce with Europe. He spoke with real eloQuence, because he was very ear nest and sincere, of what he re- garded as sure to be ultimately the greatest in money value, in its wealth-producing qualities and in quantity of the American harvest namely, Indian corn or maize. Gov Tilden said that it might require a generation of time to teach the peo- pie of Europe the food value that is Tn Indian corn. Gov Tilden said that there was no reason why, within the course of few years, the United States should not raise harvest Of 5000, 1000, ,0O0 bushels of corn. He ventured to predict the money value of a harvest of that kind at not far from $1,6O0, 100000, and in graphic manner depicted the relation Of so great a harvest as that to the pros- perity of American railroads. Jn the last five or six years ot Gov Illden 5 life he frequently, in private con- versation, referred to the wealth. producing possibilities for the Ameri- can people that lay in the production of Indian corn. What he then pre- dicted is this year realized. We are to nave at least a 3,000,OOO,oOO bushel harvest of Indian corn, and the money value of that will be from $1,600, 100000 to a little under S2,000, 0,000,000. It also means no idle cars for the railroads, renewed net earnings of great amounts, the ability of American financiers to lead to some extent in the foreign ex- change markets and to take up the finance bills that have been dis counted in London this summer.

speakers will be drawn from a wide territory, among them being prominent poultrymen, who have not appeared before the Association in the past. It Is expected that Brother Bigouri, the Belgian monk of the Trappist order, will be pres ent to explain In detail the methods he uses at the monastery of his order in Quebec, where he has se- cured most remarkable results in practical poultry culture. Dr A. A. Brigham, principal of the School of Agriculture of South Dakota, a clever and interesting speaker, will discuss poultry topics of great in- terest. In special recognition of the ladies one of the foremost poultry women of America will be present to address them. As there is no hotel at Storrs, President Beacn has rendered the association the use of the college dormitories and dining hall. There will be no charge for rooms, meals will be served at 25 cents each. Under these conditions the cost of the two day trip need not exceed one dollar above trans portation expenses. This meeting will be open to all regardless of membership in the association. In fact, the association urgently in vites all poultry keepers and those interested in this branch of farming to be present at this institute. This occasion will afford all an oppor- tunity to get in touch with the work of the college and experiment station. Address Prof. r. H. Stone burn, Storrs, for further information and program, as we'll as for reserva- tiOn of rooms.

OUR SCHOOLS.

In last weeks issue of the weekly Stand ard our local correspondent stated that "the district system is passing away" It might have read, it has already passed, for under the new law recently passed by the General Assembly. "An act concern ing town management of schools" our town must assume the management of the schools within it's borders after the 18th of the current month. While the old district system had it's shortcomings, it is hardly probable that the subject of town management could have been brought to vote in our annual town meeting and passed. This arrangement has been forced upon the country towns however, because of the spirit of indifference, which of late years seem to pervade our district schod meetings. Unless factional causes were uppermOst, the school meeting that had a quorum present considered itself fortunate. If under the new system we have more efficient schools, the action of the present legislature should never be regretted. In these days when so many of our schools are made up of foreign Americans, it is the common schools which must make good citizens of them, if the future stabil- ity of our nation is desired.
