The Austrian government has been try Ing the experiment of admitting women doctors to the state hospitals, but with rather unfavoiable results. The Mussul man patients resent the presence of a wo -man, and refuse to submit to her authority. The latest Indignity to be cast Into the heap upon ex-senator Ingalls is the mall- clous and wicked siander which says that the ex-senator Is about to join a church choir. The slander Is given a color of truth by the fact that nothing oflers a bet ter field for the ex-senator's talent for making mischief, and to say things about the soprano that would hurt must be tempting to him, but it is undoubtedly slanderous. It I no wonder that Mr In galls is seeking to bury himself In the soli'ude of a potato-field these days. i. ' One of the features of the convention at Columbus is the sale at ten cents each of bits of tin plate one Inch by two, stamped "McKinley."

NEW ADY1KTMKUBNTB. The first use of gunpowder as an agent in warfare was made In the course of the twelfth century.

A wealthy ex-governor of Ohio, named John VV Bookwalter, and better known to the farming public as a manufacturer of steam engines, proposes a new scheme for the benefit of farmers. His own early life was spent on a farm, and what re most disliked about it was Its isolation. Mr Bookwalter has bought 60,000 acres In Nebiaska, whereon he proposes to estab lish several agricultural communities or villages, selling a plot of land to each householder, and none to be more than one or two miles from the rentral village, where Its owner will live. The plan alms to combine the advantage of village and farm life. It is practised In some parts of continental Europe, and Immigrants from those sections may be expected to give it a fair trial in this country. TO OHIO WOOL GROWERS. Now, that the wool growers ol Ohio are soon to be called upon to renew their faith in "protection" as represented In the McKinley bill, by voting for McKinley for governor, It will be a matter of much interest to them and the public as well, that the views of woolen manufacturers as to the effect of the McKlnler bill should be made known. Thomas Dolan, a member of the firm of Thomas Dolan Co., manufacturers of worsted coatings and woclens In Phila delphia has written a long letter to the New York World defending the McKin ley bill. In treating of the wool question, he spys: The woolen exports to this country from the consular district of Bradfo'd, England, fell off during the first five months of this vear nearly one half, as compared with the exports for the corresponding perioJ last year. The decline was, in round numbers, from $8,500,000 to $4,400,000. During the first quarter of the preient year, the general imports of woollen fa brics fell off from $15,700,000 to $10,276, 000. Simultaneously, there was a large increase of Imports of raw wool, showing nl.lnlu that Amf.rlfnn mills wore havlmr such active employment as they have not had for many years past. It is an Inter esting fact, deserving much emphasis of statement.that the prices of wool are lower now than they were one year ago. This decline was distinctly promised by pro tectionists during the discussion which ac companied the framing ol the McKinley tariff. What will our wool growing brethren think of this candid admission that the de cline In the price of wool "was distinctly promised by protectionists during the dis cussion which accompanied the framing ol the McKinley tariff." Every one re members that that bill was framed In a star chamber, secret waj . The republi can members of the ways and means com mittee would get together and agree what rate of duty should be placed upon certain articles and the full committee would be called and these rates submitted, The democrats would object but republicans being In the majority would all adhere to their star chamber agreement. What 'promises" were made In these star cham. bcr discussions the wool men would never have known had not Dolan "let the cat out of the bag." Dolan Is not surprised that wool should be lower this year than last, because It had been promised" by McKinley and other members of the ways and means committee when framing the bill. And It will be a wonderful exhibi tion of blind credulity If the wool grow ers shall again confU'e In the promises which McKinley and his friends shall make on the stump during the coming campaign.
