Ah interesting and pathetic feature in the centennial procession in San Francisco, was the place in the line of march occupied by the survivors of Vandalia, one of the ships lost in the Samoan cyclone. Alta says three cheers for the Russian man-of-war. On Centen nial day she displayed all her bunting, and flew the Stars and E tripes from the mainmast above her own fla. Muscovite here's to you! The claim that the advance of price in binding twine is due wholly to large demand for it, and the consequent exhaustion of the manila and sisal supply, and that there has been no combination to control the price of the twine for speculative purposes, is not well taken. The evidence of a combin ation is to apparent, and while the unprecedented demand may have given grounds for an advance of price, it is no grounds for the ex travagant price that has been striven to be reached by the specu lators in the article. The action taken by farmers in the matter was well taken and should be closely followed by further action, but in all cases tempered and directed by judgment and adherence to the principles of justice and common sense. It is a popular belief that human beings are degenerating in physical growth and endurance, but scienti fic investigation demonstrates to the opposite belief. Dr. Todd shows that the average of human life is increasing. The average human life in Rome, under Ca;sar, was 18 years, now it is 40. The average in France 50 years ago was 29, the mean duration in 1887 was 4532 years. In Geneva during the thirteenth century a genera tion played its part upon the stage and disappeared in 14 years ; now th drama requires 40 years before the curtain falls. During the golden reign of good Queen Bess, in London and all the large cities of merry old England, 50 out cf every 1,000 paid the last debt to nature yearly, which means, in stead of three score and ten, they average but one score. Now, in the city of London, the average is 47 years. Pebhai-s it will not be wise to borrow trouble over what the ap proaching harvest will be which from its present promising outlcok, presages unexampled abund ance but some genius, with a predeliction to mar every beauti ful view has elucidated the fact that scientific investigations, ex tending over a period of years, have disclosed the tact that, almost without exception, a mild winter, is followed by a summer character ized by constantly recurring elec trical disturbances, ine summer . of 1881, as being within the memory of almost every one. mav be mentioned as an example. While it is not easy to account for this, it is known to every electri cian that atmosphere more or lees warmed is a great developing agent of electricity, and the same may be said of metals. The heating of iron develops in the bar electrical currents. Very few who use the coal oil can as a fire kindler, understand where the danger lies in such a practice. Coal oil of itself does not perhaps carry an extraordinary j amount of danger with it, as it does not ignite rapidly enough to account for the myriad of fatal and terrible accidents that are inscribed upon demolished and exploded cans, but the vapor arrising from the coal oil, and with which it is almost invariably attended, is among the most infiamable articles known. Majendie says one gallon of petroleum spirit, it has been shown, is enough to render 16,000 gallons of air infiamable, represent ing a space exceeding 2,000 cubic feet. The penetrating nature of the vapor increases the risk a, fact which has been proved In direct experiment, as well as in dicated bv actual misfortune. The quality, combined with the nigh specific gravity and flame-carrying power of theivapor when combined with air, renders its presence high ly dangerous, even when the quantity may be small. The extent to which the govern ment should lend its influence and aid towards the investigation, and successful treatment of diseases incident to the human family, is a question of concern andimportance It gives considerable more point to such queries when science gives a high compliment to the United States' care of the swine of the country whe n it asserts that the government has paid more money in the investment of porcine dis eases, and to prevent and cure the same, than it has to investigate the diseases that affect the human family. But what shall we conclude of the economy that supplements the breeding of criminals and the hopelessly diseased and the morally leprous by allowing their diseases to remain as multiplying forces to disintegrate society and degenerate the human stock? The economic tendencies of the average legislator are to be commended, as a rule, but that our government has been unwisely stingy and dangerously careless concerning scientific inves tigation bearing on the health and improvement of the American people is certain. Canine rights are to be respected in the Empire State. A New York judge sentenced John Ennis, who ! bit off an ear of a valuable St. Ber nard dog, to a year in the peniten tiary and pay a fine of five hundred dollars. The cure is unique, but the influence of such a sentence will be wholesome among a class of people who seem to imagine that they can maltreat a dog or other dumb brute as a West African potentate wreaks his geance on a slave. 1889 889 1889 MING AND SIMER 1889 SPECIALTIES- The Albanv Bakery Under the uo management of arker firm it r iinois hum iture House ate Dim (idsiiPiiiiiiip ven- A revolving marine battery something after the pattern of the old Monitor has been invented by a Connecticut man that is attract ing attention.
