CURRENT COMMENT.
. Ono firm of horso brooders at Colum
1)U3, O., will exhibit at the world's fair
a stablo of 17- Porcheron horses valued
at $G0,000.
Tho troasury surplus for tho year
ended Juno .'10 was $54,000,000, us com
pared with $01, 000,000 In 1902, a dlf
feronco accounted for by tho removal
of war taxes.
A model of tho first harvesting ma
chine, mado 1C0 D. C, nccordlng to re
ports from tho United States patent
ofTlco, will bo shown at tho world's
fair.
Tho Louisiana Purchase exposition
covers two squaro miles, or 1,210 ncres.
It Is larger than tho Chicago, Omaha,
Buffalo unC Paris expositions combined.
According to a report from tho
United States patent, olllco tho first
n( cam firo cnglno was constructed In
Egypt 150 13. C. A model of It may bo
Been In tho government's exhibit at
tho world's fair.
Government statistics show that tho
production of coal In tho United States
last year amounted to 300,9110,050 tons,
valued nt $373,133,813, or about $1.25 a
ton. Somehow, It was valued at $1,000,
000,000 before It reached consumers.
Another Macedonian leader "Indicts
tho Turk," But tho Turk has boon at
tacked this way by somebody or other
every few months for tho past three

forms tho Turk will laugh at them.
Milwaukee- pastors aro in favor of
advertising tho church as business men
do their business and Dr. W. D. Cox,
of. tho Methodist Episcopal church,
predicts that this question will bo ono
of tho prominent subjects of discus
sion nt the Los Angoles gonoral con
fcrcncco next May.
That was almost a wicked confldonco
gamo which a dotcctlvo practiced on
20 St. Louis doctors, somo of whom
nro charged with practicing mcdlclno
without propor authority to call on
tliom and relate symptoms which led
each ono to pronounce tho protended
disease a different ono. It is very
easy to fool your doctor or any doc
tor, unless you aro flat in bod and
can't talk. Tho patlont who relates
symptoms is mystifying. Tho more
ho relates the moro tho doctor doesn't
Itnow what ails him.
Nowspapors aro tolling of tho re
markable feat of a postal clerk who, In
a civil sorvico examination, did not
make a singlo error In sorting 42,000
test postal cards, each representing u
post olllco In a certain territory as
signed. "Far moro noteworthy,"
thinks American Medicine, "Is tho
memory of an oxpert piano player,
who will play tho ontlro soason's con
certs without a noto of printed music
Loforo htm. His memory is so porfoct
that hundreds of thousands of notes
must bo at tho instant disposal of tho
will.
STOPPED A MANIAC.
Opposition to Senator Smoot, at
Utah, has tnl:en a now turn, tho
charge that he practices polygamy
having been practically abandoned by
tho Instigators of tho crusade against
lilm. Tho W. C. T. U. will make 'tho
tight for his expulsion from tho sen
ate on tho ground that ho is ono of
tho 12 apostles of the Mormon church,
end has taken tho oath of obedlenco,
which, according to tho allegations of
tho crusaders, transcends his oath of
allegiance to tho constitution of tho
United States, to which ho Is required
to subscrlbo as a sonator.
White House Guards Arrested a Man
with a Revolver.
Scientists seem to bo puzzled that
anyone should carry about so useless
a thing as an appetite and a taste or
distaste for certain fruits and table
preparations. All such trivial pecu
liarities of tho animal .man aro to bo
Ignored. Likes nnd dislikes aro to bo
loftily Ignored, according to tho pro
fessors. Ono of tho joys of living to
most unothorlallzcd persons Is eating.
Certainly, tho strawborry, tho peach
and tho cantaloupe didn't spring up In
the garden of Eden to be used by Adam
nnd Eve in filling themselves up with
ro discrimination na to taste.

tion. Chief Usher Thomas Stone and
