OVERRIDING \ GOOD CAUSE.

Contrary to the general impression,
the latest report OF Internal revenue
receipts by the federal government
shows that while the consumption of
beer, throughout the country rs de-
croasing, the consumption OF spiritu-
ous liquors is increasing
That comes about by reason Of the
fact that beer IS a bulky commodity,
and contains such "a small per cent OF

SPONTANEOUS COMBUSTION.

speaking, is the igniting Of a sub

action within itself, and the term Is

which happens without the touch Of "a

THE uNBI,EAKA ABLE RAIL.

A correspondent writing Ia regard
to the manufacture Of the new steel
rail, which Is practically u~nbreakable,
says;
A part Of the treatment at the great
electric FORCES at Niagara by which
the perfected steel rail II produced is
as fascinating to the eye as Is this
marvel of the production of carborun-
dun ia Il great mandatory nearby.
From the Adirondack mountains
comes a part Of the ore containing the
organic quality that is called titanium.
Speaking crudely, this IL of acid con-
stituoncy And there is within con-
yonieut rench Of the great s.eel rail
manufactures no other IRON ore which
contains this organic quality.
But as by accident the discovery
was made IA North Carolina of the
crude mineral which has made possi-
bic the cheap production Of acelylcnc
gas, So also In North Carolina has
been discovered and is now being
largely mined a crystal formation all
most brilliantly tinted with a reddish
brown, and IT is this titanium acid
which causes that brilliant tint. These
crystals being mined extensively In
North Carolina are transported to the
electric FORCES. The valuable quality
secured, and in combination with iron,
forms a perfect alloy whereby all Of
the oxide Is expelled from the ingois
prepared for steel rails, departing In
the form OF Stag And this operation
is really a brilliantly fascinating
demonstration of the relation of
modern science To manufacture.

THE WOMEN IN CONVENTION.

a national convention of the cham
plons Of woman suffrage VIII be called
to order at Seattle today, and Will
constitute by far the largest, and in
Of the champions of this cause ever
brought together IN the United states.
There are a good many signs OF the
times To indicate that the caIse in
which these ladies are enlisted is
growing IN this country, and the most
significant Of these is the fact that
distinguished churchmen are begin
ming to pay attention to IT. Bishop
Dome. of the Episcopal church. is Of
this number, and so Is Cardinal Glib
bons. Of the Catholic church. True,
they are both against it. but the fact
that they are taking notice. is
significant of the growing strength
OF the movement. As yet, however,
it, strength, numerically cannot be
stated with any degree Of accuracy,
and hence there are no statistics worthy
Of consideration. Until quite recently
there was no busincsslike national or
ganization. But that matter is being
attended to now, ana by ome of en-
ergy means.
Money. Of course, Is an item. 1t is
in all large movements. And money
now is at the service of those adYocat-
ing the opening of the ballot box to
women Campaign expenses are guar
antcod, ana the work viii be begun in
earnest.
Much viii depend on the style Of
campaign. II does not seem possible
for the English style to be adopted.
The combination suffragette and
Amazon Is not an impressive figure In
American eyes. She could accomplish
nothing in a country whore women
have won the very considerable power
they exercise by charm ara persua-
sion,
The proposition therefore that
women desiring the ballot should ac-
tually bite and scratch If necessary to
obtain 1t will probably fail This is a
country Of gallantry, but %gallantry
draws the line at the shrew. If the
ballot for women in America depends
upon the Willingness Of women to
literally fight for 1t and undergo pun
ishmcnt, the cause Is lost in advance.
The women of America cannot be raj
lied in force to the support Of any
such program.
The better proposition is that Of
putting candidates for congress on
record, aud chen canyassing for or
against them according to their re-
plies. This would bring women into
the field after the fashion that has
hibition has been the issue.
The proportion Of public men who
favor woman suffrage cannot be
stated. At present it is probably
small. only a few are outspoken, for
or against. Many take refuge in the
evasion that women viii get
the suffrage whenever They want IT;
and then they ask TO be shown" how
the record stands as to the women
themselves. DO any great number OF
them really van To vote? Count all
such men in opposition.
still there is point in that Inquiry.
If the s%uffragists themselves at pres
ont lack numbers, earnest ana indus
trious as they may be, with the lead
ing churches aaginst them, their task
viii be most laboriously uphill.
