Although the United States Government supports but one national military academy it encourages military training in a number of other schools and colleges by detailing to theie institutions oScers of the army and navy. These subsidiary military schools are I of three kinds. There is. first, the state school which receives financial aid frcm the state government and is regarded as a part of its military establishment. A notable example of this class of schools is the Virginia Military Institute, famous ns the Y"e.n Point r( tho Confederacy, and now enjoying the distinction of bavins more of its graduates in the United States Army than any other school cr colleg?. The second class comprises the ?sricultural and mechanical colleges which have received donations of land from the government and which under tho terms of these grants are required to give instruction in tactics. Private military schools may be considered as 2. : . A COSSACK BIDING EXEKCISE. forming the third class. These schools use military training because of its value as an educational instrument The course of instruction la the classiSuez canal has proved to be one of the most profitable commercial undertakings in the history of the world, and the Manchester ship canal is no.v accomplishing all and more than was premised at first. Engineers and scientists are making exhaustive studies of the recent floods In Paris, to devise a system which will prevent a repetition cf the disaster. It is planned to keep the Seine within Its channel either by constructing higher embankments cr by carrying the surplus waters around the city in a by-pass channel. That the steel car is of great value as a protection to passengers in thex event of collision was demonstrated in a recent clash of two train3 m tne Hudson tunnnel. New York City. There was no telescoping, as would probably have occurred with wooden cars, and the injuries were merely such as resulted from the passengers being thrown down by the shock of the collision. The latest report of the Geological Survey shows that the value of the metallic products of the United States for 1908 was $349,923,116, as against $90.1,802,244 for 1907. The only increase was in the case of gold ?94,5G0,O0O, against $90,433,700. Yet in the cae of copper the quantity was greater in 190S than in 1907942,370,721 pounds, against 86S.936.491 pounds. Tho value of the non-metallic products al?o showed a falling off from $1,107,703,720 in 1907 to $1,043.497,070 in 19DS. The unspecified mineral products, however, increased from $100.000 to $230.000. Petroleum showed an increase in both quantity and value 179,372.179 barrels, against 166,093,335 barrels, and $129,706,233, against $120,100,749. A new petroleum field is being developed on the northern slopes of the Caucasus, about fifty miles from the seaport of Touapse, on the Black sea, in the district of Maikcp, South Russia. It is reported that the thickness of the oil series indicates that the district will take a prominent place among the world's oil regions. The oil is found In Oligocene beds of Tertiary age, and a fact of great interest Is that the oil beds are everywhere associated with a vast abundance of fish and vegetable remains. In one cliff no trace of petroleum is found except in a layer of sandy clay, which alone is full of ancient fish remains. This is regarded as making the inorganic theory of the origin of petroleum inadmissible so far, at least, as the Maikop district Is concerned. At least two Brazilian travelers have described an extraordinary phenomenon connected with the nests of white ants, or termites. Dr. J. S. da Fonseca. who saw the exhibition on the headwaters of the Rio Verde, describes the appearance as that of tiny stars, giving the nest the look of a miniature tower brilliantly illuminated. When the nst was struck with a stick the lights went out, only to reappear again little by little. Castelnau. in the middle of the last century, beheld a similar spectacle near the city of Goyaz. He says that the lights were produced by an immense number of small phosphorescent larva?, which withdrew Into the galleries of the mound when an attempt wa3 made to capture them. Prof. J. C. Branner of Stanford University 1 remarks that this exhibition is prob-; ably confined to some particular species, or to some special occasions or conditions of termite life, since he . has lived and traveled ten years In J Brazil without seeing it.

A series of aeroplane trials which have been taking place at Issy-les-Moulineaux. th ? well-known aviation renter in Trance, have been marked by the novel feature cf a combination of the dirigible with the gas bag, and the trials are being watched by aviators with the keenest interest.

tarries, that sort cf modern equipment ij not wanted, thanks. And, therefore, the Yonkers railroad company and lines to Newark have bowed to the will of the people and are putting hack the g:od old-fashioned cai-3 in which the conductor falls over the passengers' corns. Women are responsible for the reversion to tho old type in Yonkerc. They convinced their husbands that to negotiate three bundles, a bird cage and several children into a car of the pay-as-you-entcr variety required a mathematic training far beyond them. One of the women was the wife of Mrs. Leslie Sutherland, receiver for tho Yonkers Railroad Company. In Newark they adopted business methods to oust the pay-as-you-enter outfit. There a few hundred patrons of the lines agreed to always pay their fares In dollar bills. The result was that the conductors were soon deluged with the bills and unable to carry sufficient change. Besides this. sehedul3s were upset by the delay in making change for so many. Mr. Sutherland told the public service commissioner all about the troubles experienced in trying to introduce the trolley innovation. He said he went to Van Ccrtlandt Park, where passengers change from the subway to the surface lines, and tried to persuade them it would be all right as soon as they got used to the new system. "I went up there," said he, "until the people made fun of ni and called me a politician. I stood near the stairs and tried to persuade the people to get their change ready, and even offered to provide them with change. But they would not listen and set themselves against it, ju?t as they did in Newark, where they formed the dollar committees." iVcam-o of this it was necessary to ; .:t lack eld cars without wheel guards fenders. Commissioner Maltbie decided the compsr.y had been negligent in pioviding proper wheel guards on the old car3 which have come from premature retirement and served notice thn.t if th-) commission's orders are not carried out soon the company will have more trouble on its hands than that experienced at the hands of the Irreconcilable suburbanite.

Thus somewhat the same results are obtained from the military schools, though, of course, on a smaller scale, as from the compulsory military training of European countries.

LIVED ON 50 CENTS A "WEEK. London Mixer Wlif Is Wurth a Quarter f a Million Dollar. A miser who had lived for years in squalor on 30 cents a week while he was in receipt of an income of $3.000 a year and had. it is believed. $230.00;) worth of property, has just forsaken his solitary life and sought better shelter In a Salford hospital, a New York Sun's London correspondent says. His name Is John Clarence Hudson. He was found by the hospital officials lying on a bedstead covered with a dirty tag. with a stick by his side to Keep the rats from his food. He told the oCkials that he could live well on ."0 cento a week. A cent's worth of milk had to last him four days and a loaf of bread tor a week. His meat allowance was half a pound a week, and he bought half a pound of sugar every three months. Yet he admitted that he had $17,300 cf railway stock and house property, and It in stated that he received a legacy of $130.000 from his parents. He also declared that he had not been bathed for twenty years, and it took two nurses two hours and a half to make up the arrears in that respect. 13ut amid all the squalor cf his home the officials found a touch cf a longdead romance. A table was laid in one rcom for two people to dine. It had always been kept like that, they were inron.u d by the woman who attended the mi.?er.

; :;:;! Ilrvrnue Irod jiot-r. The President of the United States not lcr.g ago taid that the new tariK is the best revenue producer of all the tarift laws tho country has had. Now comes, the month of .Manh to add its testimony. And what do its figures she : There then came into the treasury of the United States, by reason of receipts froia customs, the enormous sum of $oo.722.GS9. The Associated Press has spoken of this sum as some four millions larger than has been received from customs in any month since the new tariff went into operation. That is a mild way of putting it. Never before has so much as $3).00't,0oi tome into the treasury from the customs. The month in all the past most nearly approaching this great month's doings was that of July, lt'Oi). when the receipts reached the then unprecedented amount nf f-C3.1G2. In March. 1909, the customs yielded 32S.C31.73t;. more than $4.000.000 less than last month showed. Again, the gross receipts fcr the fiscal year, thus far, foot up $234,833.443 from tho customs. Last year the sum received in the corresponding period was ?216.tLV,.uy-I. the gain being nearly $3s.bi-o.0ou. In tho -boom" year, l:'"o-7. the same period brought into the treasury $2-H'.7S7.390, the largest amount that had been received from that i-ouroe in a eon responding period. Was the President ir error when he spc-ke of the tariff and the revenue? But some one may say that this 1 :ir;? gain is because of higher duties. Not so. The tight months that ended with Fobruary (March's figures as to imports not being as yet available) witno;sed the importation of goods to the amount of $1,021.400.000. The duties paid during tho?c months aggregated $21 i.t 12.731. or 20.77 per cent of the value cf the geeds imported. For the corresponding period last year the percentage of the duties was 23.07 per oent. The bureau of statistics makes the average ad valorem duty to b? 21 per cent since the new tariff tcnlc-effect. This is the lowest rate of duty since the repeal cf the Walker tariff. But. again, an anti-protection paper tiies to parry the force of these figures by claiming that tha low rate is rutepether to be credited to the larger amount of free goods being received in this country now. about 33 percent; of which those who insist on "downward revision" cannot certainly complain, even though the wisdom of some cf the "drops" in that respect is open to doubt. Yet the fact is there is steady increase in the amount of duti able goods coming in. While ths amount of imports for the month of February is known, the proportion paying duty is not yet at hand, uut let us look at tho figures for the period from September 1 to February 1, five months in all. of which the new tariff was in operation. The dutiable goods received in those months of the present fiscal year footed up $313.290,491. In the corresponding period of the year before there came in of such goods $272,313,368, about 13 per cent increase. The volume this year falls cnl) about $7,000.000 below that re ceived in the corresponding period three years ago, which was the greatest volume cf importations the country has kuown. If those figures do not argue that the new tariff is downward revision, what would? Must there be a general crash of American industries as of old in order that "downward revision" shall be realized? Dos Moines Capital. It HemaliiN to lie Seen. If any mistake was made in the tariff law it was in reducing the rates too much Instead of too little. In the first six months of the new law the importation of goods that came in competition with home made goods increased $2ü0,U00,Oü0 over the same six months last year. That much money was sent abroad for goods that might just as well have been made by our own workmen and sold by our own manufacturers. The balance of trade in our favor is steadily dwindling, and if this continues the time may come when it will be the other way and we will have to ship our gold abroad to pay our debts. The law is a success as a money raiser because it Increases importations, but it remains to be seen whether it will be alike beneficial to home Industries. Boulder (Colo.) News. I-'uruier C'nuiiot lie Fooled. Just what tan be said to the farmers of Iowa iu favor of a new tariff agitation we are not informed. Our farmers never were so prosperous. Every farmer who votes to reopen the tariff question, votes to reduce the price of hogs, cattle, sheep, butter, eggs and every other farm product. Our advice to the farmers of Io.va is to tell the tariff agitator to "go way back and sit down." We fancy the farmers do not need any advice under present conditions. They know when they are well off. Free-trade with Canada will not advance the price of hogs or any other farm product in the United States.--Des Moines Capital. Will Sustain the Party.

Minneapolis Journal. I'aets for l'ar-ri.er and Laboring M-n The protective tariff is the safeguard of the farmers and the mechanics. Before the McKinley' or Dicgley bills were passed this country was at a very low ebb. Business was prostrated, the shops were many of them closed, while others were running only on quarter or half time. The aicn in the shops were earning scanty wages, with work only a few days in each week. Children were actually starving for bread and strong men begged for employment. This is no fancy picture we are painting but a statement of ccld facts, which hundreds and thousands can still remember. At last a change came. The dark clouds parted and out from under them came the sunshine of prosperity that gladdened and warmed every heart. The factory fires wore rekindled, cut from the tall chimneys i cured the black smoke and from the furnaces came the red glare that cheered and blessed the workmen in the shops. This is no fancy tale but a statement of cold facts. What brought the change? The McKinley bill was passed and from the very moment the act became law the sun of prosperity shone out over all this fair land and the country was never in all its history so healthy and prosperous. What was it that brought the change. It was the protective tariff law: Men with selfish interests are clamoring for another change. They care nothing for anybody but themselves. They want the tariff removed so that their profits will be larger and their coffers full to overflowing. What if labor is cut off and wages reduced. What is it to them except that they are to reap the reward of distress and poverty that is sure to follow? Farmers, mechanics, laboring men you sons of toil who depend upon labor for your daily bread, do you want to go back to the days of free trade? Norwalk (O.) Reflector. uiokeles Powder. The idea is very general that smokeless powder in being practically smokeless achieves its greatest end, but as a matter of fact its smokeless feature is incidental and was an accident. When the Idea of modern long range guns was conceived it was at once apparent that the old 'black powder lacked explosive force, and thousandi of experiments were made with va rious chemicals to procure a powder, of high explosive properties, and thi was at last accomplished. When the new powder was tried much to the surprise of every one il was found that practically no smoke followed the explosion, though th!-; could of course have been predhtec" had the question ever arisen. Thf volume of smoke from black powder is due mainly to the quantity ot char coal in the powder, an ingredient nol found in the smokeless explosiveN Smokeless powder, though , a greai boon to the sportsman, is of question able value on the battlefield, so far a? its smokelessness is concerned. The smoke clouds of old days were frequently most advantageously used tc cloak movements of troops and batteries and really Interfered with the enemy much more than with the trooja creating the smoke.
