The sinking of the German war
ship Iths still attracts attention in
the press. According to the Peking
Times, after she struck, all hands
were called ou deck, throe cheers
were given for Emperor William,
and then all joined hands and sang
a hymn as they went down.
Dr. Hayes C. French, a San Fran
cisco physician, who has recently
become an evangelist, preaches in
knickerbockers and a sweater. This
is the unform of the Young Men s
Christian Association Cycling Club.
The triangle on the breast and cap
means "spirit, body and mind, the
emblems of infinitude" according to
the evangelist.
Nikola Tesla's assertion that he
has discovered the Roentgen rays to
consist of streams of minute mate
rial particles projected with great
velocity has met with a sceptical re
ception on the part of the scientific
world. Most of the experts who
have been studying the X rays
seem to be agreed that they are pro
pagated by means of vibrations in
an imponderable ether.

in all these ; - disturbances,
with its exchequer being drained
all the time and its resources
nearly exhausted, with a growing
discontent among the masses of the
people over the utter failure of Wey-
ler to suppress theinsurrection, and
over the prospect that many more
lives and a great deal more treasure
must be sacrificed before the end
can come, is a problem that causes
many an anxious moment to the men
now in control of the government.
Shooting the chute has taken such
a hold upon the people of all sections
of the country that it is being tried
in new forms in different places. A
one-legged wheelman of Kansas City
thrilled a crowd of 5,000 gathered at
a park by shooting a chute on his
bicycle. He coasted down the in
cline, and when the wheel struck
the water dived over the handle
bar. The newspaper that chutes
this story into circulation also says
that at New Orleans the newsboys
have discovered the virtues of a
trough at the rear entrance to the
custom-house, which has become
smooth through long use by the of
ficials of the treasurer s office, who
send bags of silver through it down
to the vauls in the cellar. The boys
shoot the chute there whenever it is
not watched.

We sometimes think it is wonder
ful that germs should retain their
vitality during the cold of severe
winter, but what are we to think
when told that they will live under
any conditions for 2,000 years?
Germs found in dust in the cracks
of the interior of the Pyramids,

Representative Sulzer, of New
York, says in a letter to the Demo
cratic Congressional committee
"The campaign in the State is pro
gressing quietly, but energetically.
It is being made by the clubs and
by labor organizations, and the
friends of the plain people generally
regardless of the attitude of promi
nent State leaders. I have made
several trips through the State, and
, have had long talks with prominent
Democrats in all parts, and I believe
that with the proper efforts the
State of New York can be carried
this falL After the State conven
tion (to be held September 17th) no
doubt the campaign will assume a
more enthusiastic aspect, and many
who are now silent will then come
