Tho ranaeHne.

When the tangerine orange was first introduced into China, it was so highly esteemed that 1t was given as gift to the mandarins. and hence became known as the mandarin or ange. Our tangerine is simply a descendant of the ancient mandarin orange.
 In the last few years there seems to have been a falling of in the popu- larity of these dainty. little glove or. anges. as they used to be called. Pos sibly 1t Is because the modern navel orange. with it's sweetness and de. lightful flavor. is so plentiful
 Even so. the appetizing little tanger, inc ought to have bigger place than it has at present. It would seem that the very fact that the tangerine skin peels of so readily would insure its popularity. But there are fashions In food. as well as In clothes, and the wheel of fashion revolves from time to time. Perhaps when bustles are in again the tangerine will be daily visitor to our tables

ARC AND THE INCANDESCENT
Explanation of Entirely Different Prin eipies Under Which tho Two
 Arc Employed.

The arc light and the incandescent pies. It was noted many years ago that when an electric circuit was bro ken the current jumped across a slight gap, producing brilliant flame. The shape Of this flame was roughly an arc from one conductor to the other; thus the word arc was adopted All arc lamps burn in the air and not in vacuum. The light Is produced by the current leaping across a small air gap between the two electrodes. or car bon pencils, and heating the tips of the carbins white hot. Floating particles of whote-hot carbon also add to the brilliancy. A mechanism is necessary to feed in the cartoons as fast as they burn away, or otherwise the gap would increase until the current could not jump across and the light would 50 out.
 The incandescent lamp, common in most homes and office buildings, is ob- tained from a piece of white-hot wire, heated by the passage of an electric current. The wire must be inclosed in a glass bulb from which the air has been exhausted otherwise It would quickly be burned up and consumed, The wire tilament is now made of tungsten. which resists the flow of electricity with so much vigor that the current. in working to get by the obstruction heats the wire to incan. descence, hence the name.

Day of Stately Minuet.

We are promised a revival of the stately minuet. But consider we'll the responsibilities of that dance Thus, for instance. MT. Austen Leigh on the eighteenth century minuet: Tt was not every one who felt qualified to make this public exhibition. and those ladies who intended to dance minuets used to distinguish themselves by wearing a particular kind of lappet on their headdress. have heard also of another curious proof of the respect in which this dance was held. Gloves immediately clean were considered requisite for its due performance, while gloves little soiled were thought good enough for country dance; and accordingly some prudent ladies provided themselves with two pairs for their several purposes."- London Chronicle.

 The cancellation of this game caus- ed much consternation upon the part of the Hendrix fans, as the Bulldogs wefe anxious to meet the Mississippi ans on neutral grounds because of gross charges of unsportsmanship made by Coach Driver and his team after the game played here last fall, in which Hendrix was victorious.
 Coach Headrick has arranged for a game between Hendrix and South western University of Georgetown, Texas, his alma mater, to be played on Hendrix field November 10. This game is looked forward to with much interest by the Hendrix men, as Coach Headrick is pupil of Coach Arbuckle, formerly director of athletics of Southwestern, but now of Rice Insti- ute, at Houston, Texas. The coach has scheduled a game with Tender. sen-Brown College of Philadelphia, to be played at Philadelphia on Novem- Der 26, Thanksgiving Day.

Abuses of the "Plucking" System.

The plucking" system in the navy is either wrong
in principle, it is being wrongly administered, or
both. Opinion, possibly excepting certain element
in the service, is unanimous that the results are
usually bad and this year VIGOROUSLY so. The con-
cluson inevitably is that Congress should at once
discover the remedy and apply it.
The system, whenever applied rarely fails to in
fict injustice hardship upon one or more worthy
and efficient officers OF the navy by placing them on
the retired list before their time the government
being put the expense of maintaining them in idle
"plucking board" it has been computed that the gov
ernment will pay out about S55ooo annually for which
ii will receive return in services. Most of the
'plucked' officers capable of years of active
service. They regard their retirement as punish
ment and the public regards it, for the reason
that while the victims have been guilty of nothing
TO warrant charges against them it is well under
tain reasons usually of trivial nature and often
associated with personal spite or jealousies That
great government should sanction a system under
which such abuses possible is indefensibe
If the ratio of retrements is not large enough
to provide for necessary promotions there should be
readjustment in the service that will obviate the
delegation of arbitrary powers Of retirement to board
of petty influences.
Surely more business-hke and Just plan can be
devised, and the opportunity is presented to Secre-
tary Daniels to effect real and benefcent reform
in the navy.
