Vermin and Pestilence
A case of bubonic plague has been
3iscovered in Sydney Australia and it
ss said that tbe man stricken who is a
wharf laborer was probably infected
Dj the bite of a flea In some places
where this pestilence has broken out
the main vehicle of infection is believed
to have been rats and rewards have
been offered for every rat killed In
Western Africa where malarial fever
makes great regions uninhabitable for
white men not native born it is argued
that mosquitoes cause the trouble
Their bites are considered the main
source of danger
It will be interesting to watch the de
velopment of this line of scientific in
vestigation The world is pretty well
convinced that humanity is warred up
on constantly and with deadly effect
by minute organisms perceptible only
to the microscope and it remains to be
seen how mucty connection can be es
tablished between these microbes and
the larger focms of animal life which
are now believed to play a leading pari
in spreading various diseases of the
most serious character It is possible
that some of the smallest creatures
which bother human beings insects like
fleas and mosquitoes will be attacked
as the world grows older and wiser and
more disposed to worry about its
health with greater energy than has
ever been shown in hunting down
wolves or venomous serpents
fr one will mourn for the victims in
any war which may be waged upon the
stinging biting buzzing creeping
things that are one of the greatest nui
sances of warm countries and warm
weather even if they are not consid
ered a source of disease or danger

A general strike for higher wages in
the pottery trade in England now in
volves 20000 men and is causing great
distress and inconvenience
The art glass workers of Indianap
olis have effected an organization
There are now eighty five local unions
of the trade in the United States and
arrangements are being made to form
a national association
The carpenters at St Louis have
practically won their fight for the
eight hour day at 43 cents an hour and
a half holiday on Saturday without
pay The Contractors Association has
gone to pieces by the withdrawal of
many of the leading firms
The Brotherhood of Carpenters and
Joiners now has 438 local unions with
nearly 05000 members The eight hour
day is now firmly established in 103
cities and towns and nine hours pre
vail in 427 cities The brotherhood
gained 15000 members in 1S99U
The much condemned walking dele
gate observed a rift in the clouds that
usually darken his horizoa when he
discovered that the American Publish
ers Association has an official whose
duties are similar to that of the busi
ness agent but whose title is that of
commissioner A well known St Paul
publisher fills the office at present The
Master Printers Association also has a
business representative who resides
in Chicago with like responsibilities
The Cigarmakers International
Union does not seem cast down or in
timidated by the recent sweeping in
junction of Judge Freeman and in the
Official Journal President Perkins in
denouncing the injunction says The
people affected by this monstrous at
tempt on their liberties know their
rights and any man or woman official
or member who is molested will be
protected to the fullest extent of the
resources of the international union
Arrangements are being made be
tween the Board of Delegates and the
Building Trades Council of New York
City whereby more harmony will ex
ist than heretofore The proposition is
that all business proposed or accom
plished by the Board of Business
Agents be submitted to the Building
Trades Couueil for their consideration
In other words make the Building
Trades Council the parent body If
this can be brought about it will be
the means of adjusting many difficul
ties that heretofore have caused a great
deal of dissatisfaction between these
two bodies
The vast increase in manufactured
products on the continent of Eurdpe
has not resulted in much benefit to the
working classes on account of the great
increase in the cost of living In Ger
many tne number of hands employed
in its industries has increased in fifteen
years from 7340000 to 10900000 or
nearly 29 per cent But in that period
food provisions and house furnishings
have become much dearer meats have
increased in prices from 20 to 40 per
cent and teas coffees sugar nd flour
in relative proportion and while the
German worker pays the extra high
prices noted for food he gets but 33
per cent of the American workers
wages
For Inspection
A peculiar custom prevails among the
Roumanian peasants with regard to
marriage writes W AY Long When a
Roumanian girl is of marriageable age
her trousseau which has been woven
spun and embroidered entirely by her
mother and herself is placed in a point
ed wooden box When a suitor pre
sents himself he is allowed to open the
box which is always kept m a promi
nent place and examine its contents
If he is satisfied with the quantity and
quality of the dowry he formally pro
poses to the girls parents but if the
trousseau does not answer his antici
pations he may retire without being
considered to have committed himself
in any way The wedding ceremony is
made a scene of great rejoicing the
bridegrooms parents driving the bride
home in a cart wreathed with garlands
of flowers and drawn by fouroxen The
all important box containing the trous
seau is placed on the front of the cart
while one of the brides relations fol
low on foot carrying her dot tied up
in a handkerchief at the end of a long
pole
Strangers
They were very fond of each other

Ah Miss Blank I believe said he

No sir she replied father is not
at present Do you wish to see him
personally
Yes was the bluff response of the
visitor who felt that his former sweet
heart was yielding I want to see him
on very particular business and he
turned away haughtily
I beg your pardon she called after

HEALTHY WOMEN
Mary J Kennedy manager of Ar
mour Cos Exhibit at the Trans
Mississippi Exposition at Omaha Neb
writes the following of Peruna as a
cure tor tnat
common phase
of summer ca
tarrh known as
indigestion
Mis 8 Kennedy
says
I found the con
tinual change of
diet incidental to
eight years travel
ing completely up
set my digestive
system In consult
ing several physi
cians they decided
I suffered with ca
tarrh of the stom
ach
Their prescrip
tions did not seem
to help me any o
reading of the re
markable cures ef
fected by the use of
Peruna I decided
to try it and soon
found myself well
repaid
I have now used
Peruna for about
three months and feel completely rejuvenated I
believe I am permanently cured and do not hesi
tate to give unstinted praise to your great reme
dy Peruna
The causes of summer catarrh are first chronic
catarrh second derangements of the stomach
and liver third impure blood
Such being the case anyone who knows any
thing whatever about the operations of Peruna
can understand why this remedy is a permanent
cure for summer catarrh It eradicates chronic
catarrh from the system invigorates the stomach
and liver cleanses the blood of all impurities
and therefore permanently cures by removing the
cause a host of maladies peculiar to hot
weather The cause being removed the symptoms
disappear of themselves

Mirrors in Lighthouses
The use of mirrors for reflecting
lighthouses in England is of recent
date and although the idea was not
like certain other great discoveries
suggested by the falling of an apple
nor the dissection of a frog it owes its
origin to a circumstance almost as triv
ial which is as follows At a meeting
of the Society of Mathematicians at
Liverpool one of the members pro
posed to lay a wager that he would
read a paragraph of a newspaper at
ten yards distance with the light of a
farthing candle The wager was laid
and the proposer covered the inside of
a wooden dish with pieces of looking
glass fastened in with glaziers putty
placed his reflector behind the candle
and won the wager One of the com
pany marked this experiment with a
philosophic eye This was Captain
Hutchison the dockmaster With him
originated those reflecting lighthouses

AMERICAN OARS
CJsed Pretty Much Everywhere in All
the Waters of the World
Oaxs are made of ash and of spruce
by far the greater number of ash in
factories located mostly In Western
States east of the Mississippi River in
proximity to the forests whence the
wood of which the oars are made is
taken Oars are made almost wholly
by machinery some hand work being
done in finishing them Ash oars are
made in various lengths ranging from
six feet to twenty four feet they are
ased for all working purposes and for
many pleasure boats Spruce oars of
six to ten feet in length are likely to be
used by people who row for pleasure
and spoon oars from six to fourteen
feet in length for racing are made of
spruce
American oars are used pretty much
all over the world in jnany countries
almost exclusively The British Gov
ernment has for years bought all of the
oars used on its war vessels in this
country making a new contract yearly
The contract for the present years sup
ply is held by a New York city firm
having factories in the West Ameri
can oars are used also on French Ger
man Italian and Dutch ships
The oars exported to European coun
tries are chiefly of lengths from ten
feet upward Oars of shorter lengths
they supply themselves To Australia
the United States sends oars of all
lengths and the same is true of South
Africa Up and down the coast of
South America none but American oars
are used and in any harbor in the
world where a man is seen rowing a
boat in China Japan anywhere it is
more than likely that he is pulling with
American oars
The present annual output of Amer
ican oars is estimated at 5000000 feet
enough to reach in an unbroken line
of oars placed end to end from say
New York to Chicago It has been
greater The decrease is due to the use
of the bicycle and to the largely in
creased use of launches and various
other small craft propelled by steam
and other motive powers These agen
cies have been most effective in this
country but they are now income de
gree operative in all parts of the world
A great many more are still used how
ever and there are factories in which
nothing else is made New York Sun
No Foreigner
It is pleasant to believe that Ameri
cans are becoming steadily more patri
