TliKRK is no disputing: the fact that December came in like a lamb but how will the go out? It would be a difficult task to estimate the number of bones that wore fractured in the various foot ball games on Thanksgiving day. Foot ball is a humane sport, however. It IS indeed an encouraging sign that the bill before the legislature of Georgia, which would have had the effect of disfranchising the negro vot ers of the state, has been beaten in the lowor house by a vote of 137 to 3. It WOULD bo interesting to know bow much of the immunity from pub- w licity and prosecution enjoyed by Miller and his syndicate was due to his allowing members of the New York police force to get in on the ground floor and win big profits. Democratic managers, who are lookiner for a "running mate" for Colonel Bryan, would perhaps do well to select General Aguinaldo. That gentleman has shown remarkable sprinting qualities of late and he is quite in harmony on other matters with the proposed head of the popo- cratic ticket in 1900. FARMERS who observe that "terri torial fine medium scoured" wools are now worth 60 cents a pound in the New York market, against 30 cents in 1895, under the democratic free trade tariff law, and that "XX Ohio" wools now bring 32 cents in the same market, against 16 cents in 1895,will not advise their democratic friends to make the tariff a leading issue in 1900. How will the croakers of 1896 be able to make any headway in the cam paign of 1900 in tbe face of the an nouncements ol the commercial pa pers quoted by them so largely in 1896, which now show that the total number of failures in the quarter ending with September, 1899, was but 2,000, against 3,737 in the corresponding quarter of 1896, and the liabilities but $17,640,000 against $73,285,000 in the correspond ing quarter of 1896. It is part of the duty of a soldier to risk his life for his country, but be should not be called upon to risk his life for a month in a transport so un- seaworthy that 400 soldiers have to keep baling night and day to prevent it from sinking with all on board, says the New York Herald. The voyage of the Manauense to Manila should be the very last of that sort of thing and strict justice should be meeted out to those who are responsible for sending the transport to sea in such a condi tion. Doesn't look much as though the protective tariff was hurting our ex port trade in manufactures, when the exports of manufactures in the second and third Octobers under the Dingley law amount to $59,000,000 against $32,- 000,000 in the second ana third Octo bers under the Wilson law. In other word?, the average export of manufac turers per diem in the months under consideratien under the Wilson law is about a half a million dollars a day. and under the Dincley law a million dollars a day. Tub democratic national committee at its recent meeting in Chicago was wonderfully silent on the 16 to 1 ques- tion, especially In comparison with the utterances of its members on this topic at that very spot less than four years ago. Perhaps tnese gentlemen have begun to realize that the world has produced more gold in the last half century than In the preceding I 350 years, and that the theory that gold cannot be produced fast enough to meet the requirements of tbe world's commerce is a mistaken one. INFORMATION AND OPINION. Reports received by Surgeon Gen eral Wyman, of the United States Marine Hospital service, show that the yellow fevor has about run its course at Key West, Fla. Grandchildren of Mrs. Miles, who I died recently in Baltimore, are con testing her will. She was 80 years of age, and leit tne duik oi ner estate to her thirty-five-year-old husband. In Germany,between Dusseldorf and Crefeld, a distance of fourteen miles, an express train is run by electricity at a maximum speed of thirty seven miles an hour. The little town of Moorehead, Kan., has a co-operative hotel, laundry, hall, creamery, and canning factory, andahegs than that of a good turner, using co-operative dining hall, with several co-operative farms near by. Regarding the reportfrom Santiago that tbe wreckers now at work on the Spanish destroyer Furor had discov- ered that the vessel in question might have been raised, it is said at the navy department that it would have cost about twice as much to put hor in commisHisflion as to build a vest-el ot the same class. A bill has beon introduced In the Georgia legislature providing that children under ten years c-innowork in factories, and those between the aces of ten and fourteen only when the superintendent of the mill makes affidavit that they have attended school for at least twelve weeks for the year they are sought to be em ployed. The bill will be fought vig orously by the cotton manufacturers of the state. At Washington, D. C, the German ambassador, Dr. von Ilolleben, in the course of an informal talk, spoke of his recent visit to Europe and some of his observations there on the trend of sentiment concerning international questions. "The Samoan settlement meets with very general approval." said the ambassador, 'as it seems to be regarded as a good thing for all the parties interested." . The famous Warwick farm of 515 acres, in Warwick township, Chester county. Pa., has been sold for $12,000. On this property the old Warwick fur- nace, probably the first to make iron in the United States, was put into blast about the year 1730 and here s - many of the cannon used by the pa trlot army In the revolution were cast. I In the meadows pieces of ordnance lie buried, having been thus secreted to p-event them from falling into the hands of the British after the battle of Brandy wine, in 1777, when Geneml Washington and his army were re turning northward through Chester county, leaving the furnace exposed to the mercy of the enemy. Why She Refasert the Room. A German lady, arriving for the first time in England, drove to a first-class London hotel, asked for a room, and was shown into a very small, scantily furnished one. She said, in a deter mined manner, and in very broken English: "I will not have this room." "No, ma'am," said the porter, and brought In the first box. "Man!" re peated the lady, emphatically, "I will not have this room!" "No, ma'am," said the porter, and brought in the second box. The lady thought her faulty grammatical construction was the reason for the porter's contirued obstinacy, and repeated, with a stern distinctness: "Man, I will this room not have." "No, ma'am," said the porter and brought in the third box. whereupon the lady left the room in dignantly, but the porter drew her hurriedly back across the threshold, pulled a rope, and, to her intense as tonishment, the lift went up. Tit- Bits. What Do the Children Drink? Don't give them tea or coffee. Have you tried the new food drink called Grain-O? It is delicious and nourish ing and takes the place of coffee. The more Grain-O you give the children the more health you distribute through their systems. Grain-O is made of puro grains, and when properly pre pared tastes like the choice grades of coffee but costs about one-fourth as much. All grocers sell it. 15c and 25c Better Halves In Ren.dc. It is doubtful if the business instinct and ability of women a:e so greatly developed anywhere else as In France. Certainly not elsewhere in Europe. They reahy keep the smaller hotels nd shops, take produce to market and are often the better half of a partner ship. In endeavoring to account for this state of affairs the "Chatauquan' says that probably the murderous wars that have so largely drafted the male population from home are somewhat responsible. But the vivacity, quick wit and perception of the women ren dered them apt pupils at first and able teachers afterward. Another reason for this busine-33 activity is the fact that the French bride almost always brings more or less capital as her mar riage dower. It Is often her own pa tient earning or saving. She cannot well be denied an active Interest in the partnership. Wanted Several persons for dis trict office managers in this state to represent me in their own and sur rounding counties.

Park, 320 Caxton Building, Chi- cago Modern Blacblne-Shop Practice. Semi-automatic machine tools, to within the laBt decade, demanded a well-equipped tool room, and an ade quate force of good tool-makers for successful performance. Thss involved a large new departmental expense, oot likely to be recouped by the employ ment of a few turret machines on a limited range of work. Now.the case is quite different. Competent tool- makers are present in almost every respectable shop, tools of precision are 8een everywhere, the milling machine and tbe grinding machine are in com mon use, and more than all else, J wo or three resolute and courageous in ventors have applied themselves boldly and pertinaciously to adapting the turret to general machine-shop use, with Buch success that, in some instances, one single piece can be made so much more quickly with the fixed cutters than by the repeated cuts and measurements needed with the engine lathe, that the total time consumed In producing the piece on the semi-automatic tool, tool-setting included, is a good engine lathe.

At the present tlnie.wiien naval mat ters are a source of great interest to the geneial public, one continually finds th terms "displacement" and "tonnage" Improperly used, both in the daily press and in iommon speech. The confusion between the terms would not occur if their meaning were under stood, says the Engineering News. "Displacement" refers to the quantity of liquid displaced by the immersed hull of the ship and "tonnage" to the freight carrying capacity of the ship, determined by certain rules of meas urement. The displacement of a ves sel is the entire weight of the hull with all its contents according to the well-known law of hydrostatics that a floating body displaces a weight of fluid just equal to its own weight. A ship sinks in the water to such a level that the pressure of the fluid displaced exactly counterbalances the weight of the ship. Mr. J.

Then there is "Dan Sorrel," who draws the milk wagon that takes the milk to Central Park Dairy every morning. His driver often amuses the children that gather about his pet by saying: "Now, Dan, I believe you are a democrat." "No." shakes the head. "What! a Republican?" "Tea. yes. yes!" and a stamping of both front feet, while the tail Is slashed about like a banner to emphasize his senti ments. Dan Is great fun. Nor must we forget our old pet "Jingo," ef the mounted policemen's horsee; for he was truly wonderful, and I might go on almost endlessly telling of his re markable sagacity and cleverness. Jin go and Wee Winkles were warm friends, for Winkles spent two winters in a home very near the West Seventy second street entrance to the park, and each sunshiny day carried her lump ef sugar to Jingo who would perform all sorts of tricks in order to win his re ward. He would waltz, go down upon. his knees, shake hands, fetch a pocket handkerchief that she made believe she had dropped, whisper In his rid er's ear, and do many things besides.

At the same time magnetic needles were disturbed. This Is one of the most striding instances In recent yeais of the connection between spots on the sun and magnetic disturb ances on the earth. While the great spot was crossing the sun, uncom moniy warm weatner ror tne season was experienced on both sides of the Atlaptif, and some have suggested that this, too, was a phenomenon connected directly w'th the solar disturbance, Mr. R Churchill, Berlin, Vt.,saye, 'Our b vbv was covered with running sores.

The following story is told of a Phil adelphia millionaire who has been deaj some years. A young man came to him one day and asked pecuniary aid to start him in business. "Do you drink?" asked the millionaire. "Once in a while." "Stop it! Stop It for a year, and then come and see me The young man broke off the habit at once, and at the end of the year cams to sec the millionaire again. "Do yoa smoke?" asked the successful man "Now and then." "Stop it! Stop It for a year, and then come and see me again." The young man went home and broke away from this habit. It took him seme time, but finally he worried through a year, aad presented himself again. "Do you chew?" asked the philanthropist. "Ye3 I do." was the desperate reply. "Stop it! Stop it for a year; then come and see me again." The young man stopped chew ing, but he never went back again When asked by his anxious friends why he never called upon the million aire again, he replied that he knew exactly what the man was driving at "He'd told me that now that I have stopped drinking and smoking and chewing that I must have saved enough to start myself in business.

They were two big bltie-and-whlte checked gingham aprons, long and large, and with ample strings to encircle the masculine waist. The man makes at times a descent to the kitchen when the maids are away and demonstrates how a good steak should be broiled or some other of the nu merous things of the preparation of which for the table he considers that he has an expert knowledge. Upon such occasions It has been his custom to borrow the first maid's apron con venient. This good, housewifely ten dency to use an apron being known, there came to the man from out of town the two big aprons, which were probably the best appreciated of all his Christmas gifts and were exhibited with the greatest pride.
