21 KM majority whilo this your he will rocoivo less thuu 15001 majority llryan and all tho national force ot workers for tho party brought into the state couldnt bring tho majority up to its old standard of oxcollonco The success of the scheme for the utilisation of power from Nlngara falls Appears to be assured This Is cert i tied Ivy the announcement that bids will be received for the construction of a new wheel pit The pit now open nccom modates ten turbine wheels with an aggregate of f0000 horsepower The new one will accommodate ten more wheels of the same power so that the aggregate will be 100000 horsepower Thus the power available from tho great cataract seems to be almost lim itless Iu an article just published by Mill hull tho ouiiueut English statisti cian on Five years of American Prog ress somo very interesting facts are brought to light Among thorn these Tho avorago daily school attendance is increasing much faster thai tho popu lation The national banking business has increisod threo times as fast as tho population That tho amount of money in actual circulation is 1 10000000 mn o today than it was fivo years ngo That tho area of laud under tillage has in creased 10000000 acres binco IS while tho number of livo stock has fallen oft It is also very eviilont Unit population iu tho United States is now advancing at a slower rate than at any previous time iu its history Prof Bourne of Yalo in a recent ablo article puts iu a strong ploa for a trained civil service to administer our colouial governments Such a plea is a most timely ono Tho success or failure of our handling tho uew possissious will depend on whether wo adopt a rigid civil service system demanding of nil applicants a thorough training for tho positiou sought coupled with honesty of character or shall allow tho fellow who has the strongest pull ou accouut of his skill to bring about party success by questionable mothods to have charge of affairs Disguise Jit as we may attempt to evade it if we choose the fact remains that the stability of this government depends very largely on tho character of its civil service CIiiihImr dm Plkln Th football season Is now fnlrly upon us nnd those who take an In terest In vigorous and niniily athletic spoils n no Inconsiderable element by the way of this great American nn lliui turning their eyes toward tho college gridiron The teams have lined up for he Intercollegiate and varsity battles scheduled to be played between this time mid Thanksgiving day Al ready we begin to rend In the news columns of broken limbs unhinged Joints nnd buttered noses but this Is to be expected mid docs not lessen tho cnlliuslnmi of the players nor the In terest of tlio public However much some iiiiiv decry the brnlnllty of the game the collegians will continue to wrestle for tho possession of the pig skin with uiinbated vigor Public Interest pnrtleiilnrly In tho enst nntiirnlly centers around tho big four Harvard Princeton University of Pennsylvania and Yale Never In the history of the game bus there been such widespread Interest In these four teams and never bus the question of comparative merit been so much In volved In uncertainty Last year tho remarkably brilliant record of Ilnrvnrd In Its splendid victories over Ynle nnd the University of Pennsylvania gave mi Impetus to football at Harvard which should serve as an Inspiration for many seasons to come 1rlnceton too emerged from tlio season victo rious over Its old rival Yale and main tained Its reputation as the abiding place of the genius of football While Ynle and Pennsylvania were the vic tims last year there was no discredit In the defeats It was the fortune of that mimic war and If any one Imag ines thai these reverses Imply their uninterrupted defeat ho little knows the spirit and stamina of the young men of these two Institutions While the teams of the big four which yenr In nnd year out unques tionably have the best players and set the pace attract the widest attention there are hundreds of other universi ties colleges training schools and academies whose vigorous young men pursue the pigskin at this season of the yenr with unvarying devotion and varying success Tho game Is Indeed more than any other game tho uni versal college game and the results of the play are watched with keen Inter est by the public as the college yell resounds throughout the laud The champion horse thief of Amer ica one Peter Zimmerman has just been nrrested In Indiana Pa Peter Is 7fi years of age and claims to hold the horse stealing record and there Is like ly to be no counterclaim tolhe cham pionship lie has served off and on 40 j oars of his life for taking horses that didnt belong to him and according to his count he has during his career stolen lV steeds varying In value from r0 to U50 each Mr Zimmerman Is altogether proud or his record He has never he declares stolen a horse from a widow or an orphan or from a hard working man who bad no horses to spare Only from people who could lose horses without serious Inconven ience has Mr Zimmermans delicate conscience ever permitted him to steal and now In his old age he naturally looks back with pride and satisfaction upon his long and honorable career as a horse thief The agricultural department at Washington has sent agents to the Mediterranean regions to bring here tho Hulgarlan rose and other plants from which are derived the fragrant extracts used In making perfumes and their culture will bo tested In various sections of the United States Nearly all the perfumes used Iu this country or the essential oils employed In their iiiiinufacturo are Imported and the de partment wisely desires to inako tho experiment of producing them at home As there aro said to be sections of this country which do not differ very materially In soil and climatic conditions from the Mediterranean re gion the experiment ought to be suc cessful One of tho cruisers bought of the Armstrongs In England was to havo been completed for tho United States navy iu April last but Is now advanc ed only 87 per cent Though thoro Is perhaps no great rush for the comple tion of the vessel the Incident Is an other reminder that our own shipbuild ers like our locomotive makers aud bridge builders are the best and most expeditious In the world A Montreal paper returns nn adver tisement to nn Albany llrm with tho remnrk that wo do not publish any advertisements having for object the emigration of our people to the United States This Is perhaps prudent Should tho stream of Canadlnus com ing this way be greatly augmented the Dominion would be depopulated The Mexican government offered to glvo President Diaz 100000 with which to have a good time nnd ho re fused it Diaz evidently would not be a fit man to put ou mi American legis lative junketing committee The University of Texas owns some thing over 3000 square miles of land As that state Is developing quite an oil field the university may

come to ho conclusion that It Is a very useless Insect Here is the result of his Investigation Mist why the mosquito bites people Is not yet known It Is not to furnish 11 food for It Is an established fact that u mosquito nftr gorging him self with human blood dies within a few hours whereas mosquitoes that have never tasted Llood have been known to live very comfortably oven through the entire winter and Into tho next season The adult mosquito does not need food During Its larvae stage It has stored up enough nourishment to last all Its life and It Is a normal state for It to go without food for the rest of Its existence All that It needs is moist air adult mosquitoes being known to pnss the winter In damp cel lars living on nothing but the mois ture Tho Tact hat It Is estimated thnt only ono out of 10000 ever tastes hu man blood also proves that it Is not necessary Why It persists In tortur ing mankind therefore has not yet been found out and scientists can on ly swear softly with the rest of man klnd nnd make tho general statement thnt the mosquito Is born with a vitiat ed appetite for human gore an nppetito that causes tho death of tho ludulger Home of tlic Ill mil

cheese until the maker thinks it Is salt enough to Insure Its keeping t It Is next put Into n vessel and wash ed with whey and scraped to remove the white crust It Is next carried In to a cool room
