to let. him leave at once because he
planned to lombard the American
harbor forts next morning.
Key remained on board and was
an unwilling witness Of the reduction
of the fortress. When, after hours
of bonbardment, the American flag
continued flying. Key was moved to
write the inspiring words of THE
Star-spangled, Banner. For the tune
he took the music Of an indepen-
dence marching song which had
been very popular during the pre-
vious war with Britain. But the rnu-
sic went back even farther than
that &c.,, =. .r

Oysters Are Prolific

Oysters are very prolific. The
Atlantic coast species spawn FIVE or
six times during the season-from
May to August. An oyster may
discharge as many as one-haH bill

survive. Less than one per cent
hatch and reach maturity The eggs
hatch and the young begin to swim
in a few hours At the end Of the
day they form a bivalve shell.
then attach themselves permanent
ly to rocks or other submerged OBJ

DEMOCRACY HELD
TEST Of ABILITY
Scottish Rite Bodies of D. c.
Hear Summers Speak
on Constitution.

Representative Summers, chairman
OF the House Judiciary Committee,
last night told Scottish Rite bodies of
the District of Columbia that the
Constitution was made up of natural
laws" that govern government and all
things.
Speaking at the Willard Hotel, at a
celebratio of the SeSquicentennial of
the signing of the Constitution, Mr.
Summers said that document could be
obliterated and our democracy would
be preserved as long as the capacity
OF the people to govern themselves
remained
Whether this country pulls through
the difficulties of today, which I con-
slider the most serious since the found
Ing of our Government. depends en-
tirely on the watchfulness of the
people and a realization that natural
laws govern our Government" the
speaker said.
Urges Study by People.
The Texas Representative repeatedly
stressed his belief that natural laws"
should be studied diligently by the
people, with view to operating their
Government in accordance with them.
These laws were appreciated by our
English forefathers, he said, who
handed down what amounted to an
inherent trait by the time our Con-
stltutlon was written.
Citing Germany as a nation where
Nlynnoraov hos w.
ners said that dictatorship was due to
the inability of the people to govern
themselves. whether the United
States wants dictator or not depends
entirely on whether the business of the
Government exceeds the capacity of
the people to govern" he said.
Bloom Speaks.
Representative Sol Bloom director
of the United States Sesquicentennial
Commission spoke briefly and warned
that we must live by the Constitution
If our ideals of democracy are to
survive"
DR. Cloyd Heck Marvin, president
of George Washington University, re-
viewed the incidents during the draw
ing up of the Constitution and brought
up the question of altering it.
"All the rules of the game are
there the educator said, but if they
are to be changed, it must be done in
the proper manner" He termed 'un-
sportsmanlike" and mot cricket" any

H. c. Parmalee. editor. Mining and
Engineering Journal-The outlook
for mining in 1889 is for improved
conditions, at least during the first
half OF the year. Favorable to the
consumption of metals are prospects
for increased activity in construc-
ton. automobile manufacture, elec-
trical manufacture, utility expan-
sion. The current emphasis on
armament is also favorable factor,
but one easily overemphasized. In
dustrial recovery is the most vital
influence in the welfare of metal
mining.
