No, dear reader, the pictures which you see in the sporting pages of the newspapers these days are not those of Gaboon gorillas.

More Human Greed. Public indignation over the greed of the soft coal mine owners is intense. These greedy, grasping fellows have had months wherein to supply the demand, but they held back, doubtless in the hope that the hard coal situation would enable them to get extortionately high prices for their products. Scarcely ever has greed manifested itself more offensively than in this instance. South Bend Times. Human greed general hoggishness is at the bottom of all our troubles people not being satisfied with anything less than the earth. There ought to be seme way of curbing this insatiable monster greed, whom the poet undoubtedly referred to when he said Man's inhumanity to man makes

countless thousands porte Herald. mourn. -LaNot Peat; Only Turf. The South Bend Times asserts that there are no beds of genuine peat in Indiana. It says the stuff in this part of the state supposed to be peat is simply turf. The latter is composed of vegetable matter decayed leaves, grass, twigs, etc., decomposition, forming the article often called peat, but in reality turf. Peat is a sort of moss a distinct species of vegetable matter imbued with life the same as grass, water cresses, etc. The two are almost universally confounded. Peat can be gathered and stacked and no rains will cause its deterioration. It grows in the water, and, although dry and inflamable, years of exposure to rains will not harm it, according to information gathered by The Times reporter on this subject. Claims Many Kin in America. Dr. Dickie, pastor of the American church at Berlin, conversing with the Boer generals Saturday, asked General Botha why he was going to America, and he replied: 'Because many of the most prominent men in the United States are of Dutch descent and therefore sympathize with us." "Yes," said General De Wet, 'many cousins of my family are in America." Dr. Dickie said he had not heard of a De Wet in the United States. "The name is spelled De Witt," replied the general. "Most of the De Witts in America are distant kinsmen of mine." Behind the Times. The mails just now are loaded down with letters and circulars sent but by campaign committees. The object of sendingout these appeals and admonitions is to arouse personal intetest in campaign work. That a vast amount of paper and postage is wasted every campaign by both of the leading parties goes without saying. Not one out of fifty of the persons addressed pays the slightest attention to these manifestos. It is an old-time custom that has long since passed into innocuous desuetude. Money and time could be saved by taking cognizance of this fact. South Bend Times. Engines of a Fast Type. The Lake Shore & Michigan Southern is preparing to put in commission during the next month 10 new passenger engines of the largest .size and of the type that is now being used to draw the Twentieth Century limited. The addition of this number of new passenger engines will preoare the extra strain on its motive power that cold weather may be, expected to bring. In addition to the 40 new engines the company has orders for a number of other engines that will be used for freight traffic. Has Stacks of Money. Apparently there is no limit to the money the Pennsylvania railroad has at its disposal, Fifty millions will be spent by it in the Immediate future on a tunnel under the Hudson river and a depot in New York City. Between eight and ten millions of dollars are to be spent In depots in Chicago, Washington and Pittsburg. It is certain that very large sums are to be spent on the lines running through here to St. Louis. Four hundred new locomotives are to be bought. Terre Haute Gazette. , Sultan Dislikes Miss Stone. The American board, in view of the hint that the sultan of Turkey would regard Miss Ellen Stone, the ransomed missionary, as persona non grata and refuse her permission to land in his dominion, will probably not assign her to her old field of work in Macedonia. Rev. E. E. Strong, of the board said; "We are making no arrangements toward sending Miss Stone again to Macedonia or anywhere in Turkey. We know that she would not be welcome by the authorities." Nothing Like Trying. When Hon. Richard Olnev was attorney general, under Mr Cleveland, he made no attempt to enforce the Sherman anti-trust law, and did not try to have it strengthened. Therein he was quite different from what the present attorney general (Knox) is, who fays something can be done, and even without a constitutional amendment; in fact, as we have shown elsewhere, something has already been attempted and accomplished.
