FoRTIFYING NEW ORLEANS.

New Orleans now faces flood danger.
They know down there that the crest
of the flood will be upon the city by
April II They know too that their Ie-
wees need strengthening. For this pur-
pose train left Pittsburgh Thursday
made up of seventeen cars of steel pill
ing to be used in bracing the levees in
the region of that city. The train Will
have absolute right of way over all the
roads it will traverse in its race to
reach New Orleans ahead of the flood
waters now rushing down the Mississippi
pi river, The failure Of the tram 10
reach New Orleans before April Il,
may mean the destruction of millions
of dollars worth Of property i'll and
around the city. An agent of the
United States government is in charge
of the train. He has authority to conf
mandeer any assistance necessary to
prevent delays. Since the order for the
steel piling arrived 10 days ago one de
partment at the Homestead mills has
worked day and night on the job. In
the meantime the government has been
making arrangements with the rail
roads for the run to New Orleans.
Should the government get the train
into New Orleans in less than seven
days it will set a new record for speed
between the two cities. Transportation
men assert that unless the tram is
wrecked it win make the trip in time
to permit the setting of the levee
braces. The government has the ma
ehinery ready for the pile driving, and
all other arrangements have been made
for the immediate use of the steel upon
its arrival

USE OF ELECTRICITY.

That there has been a wonderful
increase of the use of electricity in re
cent years is very GENERALLY under
stood, but the full magnitude of the
development is only known to those
who make a study of the business. 1t
is stated by the Electrical News Blu
reau that the combined electrical out
put of the 1900 central stations in
the United States is 10000, 100000
horsepower. And that is not half of
the total electrical power produced in
the United States. The twelve billion
total includes only public service COM
panies and does not include the great
steam railroad and manufacturing
companies which produce and use their
own power. The total power thus pro
duced is easily double the output of
the central stations.
1t is little difficult for the mind
to grasp what such vast amounts of
power really mean. The largest stand
ard locomotives which pull the fastest
passenger trains are rated at about
5000 horsepower. 1t would take nearly
100000 of these big locomotives to
equal the energy produced by Ameri-
can electrical power stations. Take the
biggest transatlantic liner. nearly a
thousand feet long, with its engines
rated at 10000 horsepower. To equal
the electrical output of the United
States would require 342, 857 of these
liners, with a combined length that
would reach more than twice around
the globe.
An expert estimates that the total
business in electrical machinery in the
United States was in the neighborhood
of $500, 900 for 1912. This estimate
seems conservative when it is realized
that the last census reported the tota
business for 1909 at $243, 10000.

BY What Right.

(Raudolph Herald and News.)
What right has President Benton of
the University of Vermont to forecast
the findings of the educational com
mission that has only begun its work
and what basis has he for the utima-
tion, plainly conveyed in ais speech at
Burlington. Friday evening. that the
outcome will be a completely remodel
led system of education for Vermont
from kindergarten to state university,
Of which the particular institution TO
whose he&dship he has so recently
been called shall be the capstOne2
We doubt very much whether the
commission has vet arrived at this con
clusiou; more still whether is has inn
parted it's findings to DR.. Benton. and
a great deal more whether such an i'm
posing and-to DR.. Bcnton-so hawless
an educational structure viii ever be
reared by the people of Vermont, act
ing through their representatives.
IT may come of coursc-what the uni
versitv at Burlington, has so long been
sceking-thc obliteration or the subor
diuation of the other two colleges and
the exaltation of itself over the ruins.
This is what DR.. Benton has been pull
ing for from the moment he entered
the state.
How much of his activity Is inspired
by real interest IN the whole cause OF
education in Vermont and how far o. b.
er sentiments control we have no means
of knowing. But it is perfectly clear
that at this stage, for the president 81
the University of Vermont TO assume
so much and to say so much in a pub
lie speech it is not likely to promote
the very object he so earnestly seeks.

Business Prosperity.
Northampton Gazette. J

Business is in a high state of pros
perity in most parts of the country,
and there is shortage of labor, par
ticularly in the metal trades The steel
business is far short of help and the
iron and copper mines are still troubled
by inability to find enough men to
work them. Agriculture is always a
field of scarcity for help, but IS partic-
ularly so this year in the upper Mis-
sissippi valley and on the Pacific coast.
Many OF the steel mills of the country
have orders which they cannot fill be
cause of insufficient help, and if no
more orders are received have business
enough to keep them going for several
months

In what way do hot cross buns diff
fer from other buns and what is the
object in having them?
Hot cross buns do not touch each
other in baking, and therefore are
round. The dough is usually the same
as is used in other buns. Aside from
being round their principal difference
from other buns is in having on top a
cross of dough or frosting. Some
bakers simply cut Them on top in the
form of cross before they are baked.
Purely as a matter of sentiment hot
cross buns are designed to be eaten
on Good Friday, the Friday before
Easter, the day on which Christ was
crucified, and the cross is emblematic
Of the cross Of the cruclfxiou.

LIVELY CONTEST IN SIGHT.
Attempt to Change Name of Protest

Unusual interest is attached to the
Coming national convention of the

OF the effort that is to be made by
the high church faction TO change the
name of the church from the Protest
ant Episcopal church to the American
Catholic church. The high ehurchmen
are anxious to have the change in
many instances while practically the
entire membership of the other degree

change. The Massachusetts eastern di-

CHASING STEERS

Hamilton, Feb. 1S.-(special)-The
experiences in connection with the
handling of several steers vas sent
fronARoss' Hole in the shape of a
communication. The letter follows:
H.. J. Campbell purchased -four
steers from John F. Odell. He sent a
boy named Ola after them. Ola and
Odell, after two days of hare fighting,
succeeded in removing the steers to Il
point below Ross Hole. Here they
were lost in the brush, but were finally
rounded up in Jake Wetzstein's corral.
Campbell now dispatched r%einforce-
ments from Darby. The new helper
arrived on the scene clad in house
slippers, the thermometer being at 80
below at the time. Ola and the man
with the house slippers chased the
steers across the river N the ice. The
new c~oWpuncher in following lost his
slippers through the ice, and then gave
up the chase and returned to Darby.
Campbell next sent a coWpuncher,
Jack Hames, from SteVensVille.
Hames sized up the situation and de-
cided it would be more comfortable
sitting round the fire than chasing
cattle. He visited, soaked up a bunch
of extra heat, and then returned to
S~teVensville. Odell 500 learned that
the steers We're somewhere in the
mountains, so he M Jake took the
trail. 1t. vas soon abandoned. The
next day Joe Bush Joined forces with
Odell. Equipped with snoWshoes, the
men soon located the steers in a box
canyon. The men slid into the gulch,
frightened the steers. When the ami
mails started up the mountain side, Joe
caught hold on a steers tail and was
hoisted to safety. When the top of
the mountain was reached Joe headed
the steers down the mountain, and they
were finally pocketed in Jake WetZ-
STEMS corral. There they await the
arrival of Campbell from Thompson
Falls. Sincerely, ROSS HOLE"
