Persons who are unable to acquire money are necessarily not capable of its proper use or care. The people know that up to the pres ent time the great capitalists have been only captains of industry. So long as some men have more sense and more self-control than others, just so long will such men be wealthy. It is observable that the very rich men of to-day are far more democratio than ever before in the history of the world.

REFUSING ALL SUBSTITUTEB OR I.ITATIONS In 1 Jr [mst DEADLIEST WAR ENGINE. Rumors About a Wireless, Crewless and Easily Dirigible Submarine Infernal Machine. A rumor is current that the British government is on the eve of com pleting the purchase of a submarine topedo boat which will prove the deadliest engine of %ar ever invent ed. There are several types of sub marine boats familiar to naval con struction. We have the craft de signed to be navigated by the agency of a crew, the Whitehead automobile torpedo, which contains no human crews, but is fitted up with a mechan ical contrivance for motive and steer ing power, and other mechanically controlled automobile destroyers of the Brennan and Sims-Edison pat terns. Some of these craft, once started, are no longer under the influence of the person who discharges them, and are lost, Others, steered by wires, can be recovered with ease, and will do the work of a submergible boat. But the dangers of a wire-steered torpedo are many. It has only a lim ited field of operation, and its wires frequently entangle and snap. This new torpedo, however, can be piloted from a base by means of a wireless electrical impulse sent through the water to a receiver, fixed up in the torpedo and attuned to the pitch of that of the transmitter. No elec trical influence can interfere with the impulse generated, and, provided that there is sufficient motive power in the torpedo, the unseen foe can follow a ship like a shark and can be made to strike it and explode at any moment. Control is so perfect that steering and maneuvering can be accomplished by simply pressing a button. The .new vessel has many marked advan tages over the submarine boat. The utmost speed of a submarine is three knots an hour. If she exploded a ship at anchor she could not get away in time to avoid her owvn de struction. We learn that the new invention contains nothing but her engine power chamber, steering gear and explosive head. She is very small and built for great speed. In runniv; she maintains an average depth of ten feet, the striking distance in submarine warfare.--London Ex press. THE TELAUTOGRAP .

Natural Heat Accumulators. A Hungarian chemist has discovered that some of the salt lakes in Transyl vania present the peculiarity of a layer of warm, or even hot, salt water, be tween two bodies of colder water. Thus in the Medie lake the surface temperature in summer is about 70 degrees, but at a depth of a little more than four feet the temperature be comes 132 degrees, but declines again to 66 degrees at the bottom. The sur face water is fresh, but the warm wa ter beneath is intensely saline, and the explanation of the difference of temperature is that, since the specific heat of salt water is less than that of Ifresh water, the salt water is more easily heated by the sun, and having risen to a higher temperature than that of the overlying fresh water, re tains its heat because the fresh water prevents its escape by radiation. It is suggested that some use might be found for these natural reservoirs, or accumulators, of solar heat. Her Favorite.

Senator-elect Gorman, of Maryland, 4ands with the majority of the Amer l:an people in his belief that the beef ,rust has made trustism the issue of the congressional campaigns by arous ing this country to a full realization of the, necessity for restricting the evil power of the trusts. Every American family, rich and poor alike, has been brought face to face with a situation ominously illus trating the malignant working of the trust idea. For no reason, save that the big packing houses constituting the beef trust determined to suddenly take full advantage of their absolute control of markets, the price of meats has been advanced to an unwarranted point. In thousands of instances this advance has caused suffering and de privation, says the St. Louis Republic. Even to the rich, who were not com pelled to deprive themselves of meat because of these high prices, a lesson has been taught that has logically and rightly created the deepest resentment against the monopoly combines. The developments following investi gation of the beef trust's method of business constitute the most formida ble indictment of the trust evil. They show that the cattlemen who sell to THE IMPORTUNATE CREDITOR. rolu! c ··Ot4TI - KNOCK TOO LOAD,. wi~ ~ jo 9, V . 1. C\~~iX~o'.4 (wFn04c, tlC.g~e11uy 0'ýN the beef trust, the retail butchers and meat dealers, are utterly, one and all, at the mercy of the beef trust. Cattle men can sell only to the beef trust, compeit ion being absolutely.d estroyed. Retail butchers and meat dealers can buy only from the beef trust, compe tition being absolutely destroyed. The consuming public can buy only from the, retail butcher and meat dealers, paying the exorbitant prices made necessary by. the greed of the beef trust. There Is no appeal from the prices set by the beef trust, owing to its unbroken monopoly in the buying and selling of meats. This teaching of theinevitable oper ation of the trust idea, conveyed to the American people by the action of a combine controlling the most impor tant of food materials, has sunk deep ly into American minds. Every house hold in this country is aroused to pro test against the rapacity of the beef trust. Public sentiment is awakened as never before to the necessity of trust restrictionm. The reports of the situation published in the daily press are in themselves an overwhelming indictment of the trust system. The truth of the situation is a campaign document of incalculable value as tend ing to bring correction of the trust evil. The democratic party is the po litical, organization to which the peo ple turn for aggressive action against the trusts. The plainest duty now con fronting the democratic party is to make the beef trust the vital issue of the congressional campaigns of 1902 and to lead the people to a victory which will mean rescue from the op pressive tyranny oft the monopoly trusts. -The democratic party will go on, conquering and to conquer.

Senator Lodge's defense of the atrocities perpetrated in the Philip pine islands is notable indeed for its evasive hypocrisy. The atrocities themselves he dares not defend, but he abuses the people who have ex posed them and insisted on their re pression, says the Indianapolis Sen tinel. With calm effrontery Mr. Lodge said: "It is a source of bitter regret to me that any American officer or enlisted man should have tortured any Filipino, or that any or ler was Issued that on its face seemed re volting. But there must be some reason for these alleged cruelties." Here is an admission of the fact of torture and of revolting orders. He regrets them. So does every Ameri can. He says there was "reason" for them. Every American knows that. Ve went out to fight a people not fully civilized and who have for years been engaged in a bitter and cruel warfare. They know no other kind. We knew what to expect of them. But we profess to be civilized and we are under the obligation of civiliza tion to abjure barbarism, especially in an effort to force civilization and liberty on an unwilling people. The report continues: "Within a few days orders have gone from the white house for the investigation of alleged cruelties and to. punish any found guilty of atrocities. Mr. Lodge made a warm defense of the secretary of war. asserting that in the long list of distin guished men who hadr occupied that ofice there never had been an abler, more public spirited or more patrfotic man than Sec retary Root." : . Yet it is but a few weeks since Sec retary Root denied absolutely that there had been any "cruelties" and publicly rebuked Gen. Milee for state ing in an official communication that the war bad "been conducted with marked severity." But for the ef forts of the men whom Senator Lodge abuses to get at the facts, all knowledge of them would have been suppressed except what came from unofficial sources. The report fur ther gives Senator Lodge's state ment: "'All of us,' he said, 'want to see justice done-we want to see those guilty of atroci ties and torture punished. We do not ap prove of injustices and atrocities committed upon prisoners or upon helpless men. And orders have gone out from the white house and the war department to prevent such atrocities.' " That is all anybody wants, and all anybody has asked, yet to read the senator's conclusions. one would im agine that somebody h'b4 been ask ing for ,the punishment of perfectly innocent men who had committed no offense whatever. Senator Lodge in reality confesses all that has been charged, and, it may be added, all that has been proven-and no more.

Various Suggestions Wtsch Will Aid Her in Conduct of Domes tie Afairs. To clean linoleum take equal parts of cottonseed oil and sharp vinegar, and rub well with a flannel rag. If the lin oleum is very dirty, first wash it with soap and water, or water to which a lit tie turpentine has been added. Wash ing soda should not be used on linole um, because it readily attacks oil and paint, of which this floor covering Is chiefly made. A delicate preparation of oatmeal that an inyalid will enjoy requires that the cereal shall be boiled first for about an hour, as if it were to be served for breakfast. Remove from the fire and rub it through a fine sieve. Add a lit tile milk, and cook it very slowly in a double boiler for half an hour longer. When perfectly smooth, flavor with salt, and add a very littlecream before serving, says the New York Post. A cream mayonnaise, in which but ter is substituted for oil, is made by mixing in the inner vessel of a porce lain-lined double boiler a large table spoonful of butter, foir tablespoon fuls of vinegar, a half-teaspoonful of salt, and a half teaspoonful of dry mus tard. When thoroughly mixed put the vessel in its saucepan filled with boil ing water, and set over the fire. Stir the mixture carefully till very hot, when two well-beaten eggs may be added, the whole stirred until thick. Add a half pint of cream, stir, take from the fire, and allow to getperfect ly cold. This is a good dressing for chicken or sweetbread salad. A Celestine omelet, as made by a French cook, is something to remem ber. It is, in fact, plural, for the real Celestine is served individually, one egg, the white and yolk beaten sepa rately, to an omelet. As, however, this form of the dish needs a rapidity in preparation that is not possible al ways in the average kitchen, it is quite. as well to make 'one large omelet, say of six eggs, after the usual method. Just before folding, cover the omelet with a thin layer of peach maralade, and on this sprinkle chopped candied fruits. Fold and slip to a hot dish, spreading over the top a few almonds that have been blanched and chopped, covering finally lightly with whipped cream. Once eaten in its perfection, this omelet will be a thing to be after ward desired and striven for. A correspondent asks how ermine that is slightly soiled may be cleaned without sending it to the furrier, where its handling will be expensive. Naphtha will clean it excellently, but the process is rather a risky one. If undertaken out of doors and on not too cold a day, when sometimes the air is so charged with electricity that a little rubbing will produce a spark, there should be no trouble. Put a half gallon of naphtha in a foot tub, and immerse the fur collar, muff, or what ever it may be, lifting it in and out sev eral times, and rubbing any soiled spots.

An instance of nonfamiliarity with simple scientific facts is illustrated by an article that goes the rounds of the press once or twice annually, `amely, the story of the electrifiedhouse. The article usually states that some one has discovered that. everything he touches in his house7-the radiators, picture frames, banquet lamps, ete.- gives him an electric shock. Hence, he. fears there is some connection between the arc-light wires and the waterpipes near his residence. The electric light inspector is, therefore, `summoned, and reports that' the wires of his com pany are intact and that the electricity must come from some other source. It does not dawn on any of the peo pie consulted that the discoverer of the phenomenon is Unconsciously per. forming one of the simples) and old est of electrostatic experiments, the shuffing of his shoes over the dry ear pet raising the potential of his body to several thousand volts, which dis charge at every opportunity. Onemay even get electric discharges from his knuckles to the brass lock of a hand bag which he may be carrying os a: stone pavement during cold, dry weather. But, dismissing newspaper secence, it is somewhat astonishing, in view of the many wsays in which in cold, dry countries electricity is unintentionally developed and manifeatedbp yFparktng that the first knowledge eonenrnily this phenomenon did not cohme~ ithe ancients in this way rather than by the attraction of light substance by am ber.
