The Waste of the Wind.

Every who wants a cheap mo-
tive force has tried to harness the
wind. Every child has made a paper
propeller or a Windmill. But can it be
said that the possible Uses of the wind
have been as ardueusly investigated
as such recently discovered forces as
steam and electricity and gases? Is It
not conceivable that the practical uses
of the wind are UNDERESTIMATE just
because they are SO familiar3
We cannot help thinking that the
wind will be more v~ariously employed
some day in the same way that prob
ably the problem of laying under con-
tribution the great physical fact of the
tides will be solved. One would think
that the wind could be used for cleo.
trio lighting, yet there is no practical
apparatus for the purpose. True, the
wind Is variable and occasionally alb
sent, hut as electricity can be stored
one might suppose that this was the
very case La which variability did not

winter, win be the most important
business to be considered al a meet
ing of the minority members in At
lantic City next sunday. They will
go to the resort city as the guests
of Assembly-elect Isasc Bacharach.
1t is likely that the Republican
Assemblymen will give some consid-
Grafton at that time to the United
States Senatorial question as 1t af-
fects their party. In this connec-
ton, 1t was reported about the
State House yesterday that David
Baird and Senator Kean will endea-
vor to induce the Republican mem
bers OF the Legislature TO NO 1nte
the joint session as whicil q Senator
will be elected without any pre- ar
rangement as to how they will vote.
At first, TIE Kean -IsaAsd forces
planned to bring about a caucus en-
the subject, but recently they dis
covered that X A caIeus vas he'd

Trenton, Jan. 1.-The 18th annual
session of the New Jersey Legislature
wilA onven next Tuesday, January
10, at noon.
This session will be one of the most
iniportant in the history of the State,
coming as il does at a time when there
are a number of very important po-
~litical questions to be acted upon by
a Democratic House and Republican
Senate, to be passed upon later by
a Democratic Governor.
Following the organization it is the
plan to devote the first few days to
arranging ting details for the inaug-
alton of Governor-lect Wilson on Jan
usry II. Assemblyman Allan B. Walsh
of Mercer is the chairman of the Com
mittee on Inauguration. The two
houses will not get down to actual
business until after the Governor has
been indicted into Office.
Assemblyman Edward Kenny, of
! Hudson county, has been selected as
the speaker of the House of Assembly
and Assemblyman John J. Matthews,
of Hunterdon will be the leader of tho
Majority on the floor. Opposed to Mr..
Matthews will be Assamblyman Thomas
+. MeCran, of Passaic.
In the Senate Ernest r. Alderman,
of Union, win be the president and
Senator John D. Prince, Of Passaic,
will be the majority leader. Senator
Harry ". Osborne, Of Essex, will be
the floor leader for the Democrats.
When both houses get down to ae-
tual business it is probable that all of
the reform measures will be disposed
of first. The Democrats have announc-
ed that they intend to fulfil their
campaign pledges and among the bills
to be passed will be a rate making
public utilities act: a corrupt prae-
tices law; a bill for the equalization
of taxes and a bill for the extension
Iof the direct primary system.
According to the law the election OF
a United States Senator to succeed
Senator John Kean, will be the order
of business for the second Tuesday at
ter the organization, which ID January
"a. IF the majority of both houses
do not vote for the same man at their
own session then a joint meeting is to
be held. This win be the case as the
House. is Democratic and the Senate
Republican. OF course, on joint sAaAot
the Democrats will be in control.

kiIIjno an UnfaithfuI Lover.

When a Japanese girl has been slighted by her lover she revenges her. self according to the following quaint custom: In the dawn of the early morning she rises and puts on white robe and white clogs. Round her neck she hangs small mirror, which falls to her breast. and on her head she puts a metal crown with three points. each point bearing lighted candle. In her left hand she carries a small figure of straw or rags-SuppoSed to represent her unfaithful lover-and this she nails to one of the sacred trees surrounding the family shrine. She then prays for the death of the man. yowing that if this comes to pass she will pull out the nails which are hurting the sacred tree and make of ferings to comfort her family god. Ev. cry night she comes to the shrine. strikes in two more nails and makes the same prayer. her idea being that the god, to save his tree from further injury, will kill her lover.

WANTED MINISTER BUT HIS TASTES
 ARE EXPENSIVE

Norwalk, June IA special meet ing of the Society of the Norwalk Congregational church was held last evening in the church parlors In Lewis street to consider the report of the pulpit committee on a successor to Rev. George D. Egbert. the late pastor of the church. The gentleman n who had the unanimous support of the committee was Rev. M. Evans, of Gloversville, N. Y.
 Hon. Edwin o. KeeIer was made moderator of the meeting. MT Evans was very explicit in his re- quests concerning the acceptance of g. call to Norwalk, specifying that he must have practically an unanimous call, a salary of $2.500 a year, an expenditure of about s1,60O on the parsonage, including four hard wood floors, the reconstruction of the heat ing plant in the parsonage at an ex- pense of about s400, six weeks va- cation, and no Sunday evening ser vice during the summer months
 The committees report was receiy- ed, but the members of the societv did not quite see how they could raise money at the present time to carry out the various demands and consequently voted that it was deemed inadvisable at this time to make the appropriations requested The pulpit committee was continued to look further.

 On Mir. Banks
Representative from Fair field Is Lampooned In
 Harmonious Verse

Representative Charles w. Murphy of Danbury, introduced bit of variety into the debate upon the utili- ties bill in the house of representa- tives at Hartford yesterday, by recit- ing some original verses.
 The Hartford Times said in its re- port of Mir Murphy's remarks:
 Representative Murphy, of Dan bury, ridiculed the position of the people who do not want any sort of a utilities bill. They are in the posi- ton of the man running away from a man with a gun charged only with a blank cartridge. Is the man pur- sued apt to turn around and exclaim, Say .smister, your gun is not loaded" He questioned the paternity of the Banks bill Everybody seems to be dodging it. MT. Murphy declared that Davenport was not infallible, as the Supreme court had shown in the costly Loewe case. He concluded with 8 few spasms of poetry after the recent achievement of Congressman Tom Reilly, addressed to the king of the lobby.'' It was called Banks Dream" paragraph follows:
 I'll vote to cripple any bill
 That hurts a corporation;
 If 1 can't win, I must amend"
 For that's my occupation.
 Representative Etheridge of Thom- aston, spoke for the minority bill. and explained many of the delibera- tions of the Judiciary committee in compiling the report.
