BRANDS RAPID RISE.
New French Premier Is Socialist and
Man of Studous Habits.

New French Premier Is a Socialist and
~a Man of Studious Habits.
The rise of Aristide BRAND, the new
premier Of France, has been so rapid
that the biographical dictionaries have
not had time to notice him. The most
recorded outside of France about him
is contained in newspaper clippings,
which feature his work on the legisla-
ton separating the church and state
In France and, most talked about Of
all, his declaration for trial marriages,
divorce by mutual agreement and free,
love.
The latest edition Of the French
who's Who" says that NJ. BRAND was
born in Nantes on March %, 1862, and
that he attended school in that city.
There is no mention of university
training but he became lawyer. He
was elected to represent the Loire in
the chamber of deputies. Five years
ago he was known only among his own
party, the Socialists.
He was appointed reporter Of the
church and state separation bill and
soon became recognized as high au-
thority on the subject. He aimed to
drawn up u bill broadly liberal in spirit,
but devoid Of fanaticism, and designed
to assure freedom Of worship and con-
science. For his work on that bill he
was elevated to the post Of minister Of
public instruction and worship in 1905.
During the church and state troubles
he acted with irmness and modera-
ton. and after the death Of M. Guyot-
Dessaigne on Dec. 81, 1907, he was
appointed minister of justice, retain
ing also the ministry Of worship.
It was last year that his name got
in the newspapers as one who favored
trial marriages, divorce by mutual
agreement and free love. Early In
the year Paul Bourgeois play, "Un d.
vorce," presented at the Vaudeville
III Paris, caused sensation. 1t dealt
with the divorce question, holding that
marriage was a sacrament and full
minating against the idea of divorce.
Though the Bourget play preached
against the ideas Of the minister of
JuSI]Cc last year, FOteS ldheA C'eAJ
night in the very theater In which it
was produced were overwhelmingly in
favor of M. Brands ideas as against
those Of NJ. Bourget.
NJ, BRAND is q man of studious dis
position and early won reputation
among his associates as scholar. He
adopted the doctrines Of the Revolu-
tionary Socialists early in life and is
the author Of 1.-THE Separation Of the
Church and the State" publishd in 1905.

TEST OF JAP RAILROAD TIES.
Santa F. to Try Coca bola Shipment
Mar Great Bond, Kan.

Mar Great Bend, Kan.
The Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe
road is making arrangemtns for a
series Of experiments with new kind
Of railroad ties which will be observed
with interest by every railroad in the
United States.
The Santa Fe has purchased large
shipment in Japan of coca-bola and Jap
anese oak ties, which were recently
landed in California and are now being
prepared for use on the Santa Fe
tracks in Kansas. The experiments are
to be conducted at Great Bend, Kan.
This wood from Japan when deliv-
cred il California costs the railroad
about $1.15 tie, or little more than
is paid for American ties. The wood
is so hard that IT is said to be almost
impossible to drive spike into 1t. and
it is expected to be capable of twenty
five to thirty years wear. Holes will
have to be bored into the wood, and
screw spikes will be used. When laid
the cost Of the ties will be in the
neighborhood of 81 each. The ship
ment received contains 10000 ties.
When the ties are placed in position
new rails will be laid and the track
will be reballasted. so that it will at
ford an accurate medium for observa-
ton and tests. 1t is claimed that it
will then be one Of the finest pieces
Of railroad track in the world.

Experiment With Milking Machine.

The Nebraska experiment station of
the department of agriculture at
Washington is experimenting with
milking machines. A preliminary re-
port on the progress Of the investiga-
ton, recently issued by the depart
nent, contains this information:
'It has been found that most Of the
cows yield their milk as freely and
fully when MIXED with a machine as
by hand, but with some individual
cows the use Of the machine is not en-
tirely successful. Heifers accustomed
to the machines from the first appear
to do better than older cows which
have been MIXED by hand"

FLY FISHING FOR TROUT.
Why an Angler Considers It the "6est
Of All Sports"

Why an Angler Considers It tho "6est
Of All Sports"
am inclined to believe that fly fish
ing has its chief and most easily de-
fined excuse in the existence Of GER
tain fish-Salvelinus fOntinalis, the
speckled trout. Here, indeed. Is some
thing tangible. thing which may be
taken in the hand-frst catch your fish
and looked upon. No one seeing
freshly caught brook trout would say
that it was other than thing Of beau
ty. Its delicate varicolored resplen-
dency is not equaled by any living
thing.
The tarpon, the SILVER king Of
southern waters; the Atlantic and Pa
cific salmons, the ouananiche, or land
locked salmon, and the grayling COM
prise practically all the other fishes.
excepting the various forms Of brook
trout, which may be said to possess
both beauty Of form and coloration. 1t
cannot be denied that these fish are
justifably praised, but 1t Is orally
conceded that the red spotted brook
trout has nothing to fear from their
competition. OF the western rainbows.,
cutthroats and steel heads the rain
bow is the eastern brook trout's near
est competitor, and that is praise
enough for the rainbow.
So here is one good reason at least
why fly fishing for trout Is considered
