Snn sets 4:32, rises 6:55; moon sets C:OS p. m.; moon's age, 1 day; Cassio peia meteors possibly seen this even ing overhead. President Butler of Columbia uni versity wants $100,000,000 for the establishment of a "culture trust" in New York. There can be no doubt but that city needs It. The democrats are not the only ones who are mourning the election of Mr Taft. The Rough Riders of all politics have seen their fate sealed by the retirement of Mr Roosevelt and they will have to go way back and sit down with those once favored people who came from Canton, Ohio. International affairs, which have been disturbing, are now more set tled than for several months, says Banker Clews. The deaths of the emperor and dowager empress of China fortunately produced no crisis and none is expected. The reproof which has been administered to the emperor of Germany, unpalatable as it may have been, will work for the peace of the world, which more than once has been seriously threatened by his indiscreet utterances Balkan affairs are also quiet for the time be ing, though disturbances there are nearly always possible. Fortunately these problems will come before an international conference, the chief purpose of which will be to maintain peace. The financial markets of Eu rope are in better condition than a year ago, though there has been no such recuperation on the other side as here. The United States leads not only In booms but In recoveries from panic; thus sustaining its reputation for strength and optimism. A rather severe arraignment of American foundry work was made in the course of an address on October 31 by Herbert Pilkington, re-elected president of the Sheffield branch of the British Foundrymen's association. Mr Pilkington remarked that what the Americans excelled in was "standard specifications of all sorts," and intimated that the actual work in the foundry was not of so high a type. It may be true, says Iron Trade Review, that our castings are soft, but if so they are made thus because it is easier to remove metal from them. If the American foundryman wants higher phosphorus and harder castings, he can meet his pig iron requirements without going beyond our borders. He does obtain and use as much high phosphorus iron as he desires. There is a measure of hope for us, however, since we observe that when Mr Pilkington finished paying his respects to our ores, pig iron and castings, he turned on the British foundrymen, assuring them that they were ignorant and that he had no hope of much alteration until a new generation should arise. Per haps we may come out ahead after all, for certainly we still have hopes of the present generation! The national grange after a session of a week in Washington has ad journed. Toward the end of the meeting it adopted a resolution de manding the introduction of the parcels post on rural routes and also of its universal extension. Another resolution was adopted asking for the establishment of postal savings banks for the benefit of farmers. These are measures that have been recommend-' ed by Postmaster General Von Meyer and by his predecessors for twenty years, says a Washington writer. The parcels post has long since been in use in European and even in Asiatic countries. If the United States were an effete monarchy or an oppressed despotism we would iong since have had the parcels post here but being a free and independent government of senatorial, congressional and other bosses In the pay of the interests, and having a senator from New York representing the express companies of which he is president, on the floor of the senate, and having a power ful express company lobby with its pockets bulging with ill gotten gains ever present at the Capitol, we must be content with our vaunted superiority in name over the effete monarchies and despotisms. The re cent postoffice deficit was seventeen millions. The postoffice establish ment, spending nearly two hundred millions, brings the country In debt Buckle. seventeen millions a year. The m- cauimnment. well nmnuared in business like way aud doing the profitable work that the express com pany nicneg from It, would bring ths government yearly enough money to build a half dozen Dreadnoughts and would at ths same time furnish all or the people of the United States a vastly superior service. With thirty thousand rural routes, nearly all of them supplied with a horse and wagon, the small amount of fifty-five pounds a trip would wine out the do- flclt. The national grunge has passes a resolution to oppose senators who oppose the parcels poMt delivery. HEARD rjj MASSING. Can It be that Nat Goodwin Is am bitious to show that he can beat lilt Han Russell's matrimonial record? ' It will be strange If the Outlook next year does not have some ar ticles on the betterment of condi tions in Africa. A Chicago policeman who institut ed a raid and then failed to recog nize a faro layout Is going to be dis charged. In this case as usual, In nocence Is its only reward. Rumor says that the Princess de Sagan formerly Countess Castellane and still more recently Anna Gould Is going to get a divorce from her pres ent princely husband. As she mar ried the prince to spite the count she may now be contemplating remarry ing the count to spite the prince. "Ain't it awful Mabel?" John Morehead. congressman elect from North Carolina says his friends have betrayed him by effecting his election when he understood dis tinctly that he was to be an "also ran." But he need not mourn. No one In Washington will pay any at tention to mm, ana except for answer ing his name at roll call Uncle Joe will see rhat he has nothing to do In congress. THE GUILLOTINE. . it Was Not Invented by the Man Whoaa Nam It Bears. In a book published by Hector Flelschman In Germany the story of the origin of the Instrument of execu tion which was named for Dr. Gulllo tln In the days of the reign of terror Is flatly denied. "There Is no truth In the story, so long believed," be says, "that the genial old physician Invented the machine which was named for him and by means of which he Is said to have lost his life shortly after Its adop tion. Guillotin, In keeping with the spirit of his time, proposed on Oct. 10, 1789, that all offenders, regardless of their birth or station, should be dealt with alike by the law, aud six mouths later he proposed to the government that convicted murderers should be beheaded by means of a simple appara tus. The mechanism of which be and no one else had any idea at that time was spoken of as the 'simple appara tus' by the humorists of the day, and the phrase was used to make Its pro poser ridiculous, so that when a ma chine finally was adopted the wits of the time named it guillotine. The gov ernment, evidently recognizing the val ue of the suggestion asked one An tolne Louis, a surgeon at the Salpe triere, to devise a machine and later gave a similar order to a carpenter by the name of Guidon, who offered to construct an instrument for decapita tion for 5,600 livres. This was consid ered too high a price, aud the contract was given to a German cabinetmaker by the name' of Tobias Schmidt, who received 824 litres for the accepted model In 1792. Schmidt made guillo tines for all the provinces, and the In dustry brought him a moderate for tune, which he proceeded to squander in Paris, while Dr. Guillotin, who nev er had anything to do with the making of a machine which bore his name, continued to practice his profession quietly and unostentatiously in Paris until be died there on March 20, 1814." MIXED THE SIGNS. Saraaata and the Sandwich Men in Edinburgh. To advertise Sarasate's performances in Edinburgh eight sandwich men were sent out, each of whom bore in front and behind him one letter of the great musician's name. They started all right, but after a time removed the boards from their shoulders to have a rest. On resuming their labors each man shouldered the board nearest him and fell in behind the man who had for merly marched before him. When the leader, who bore the initial "S," turned around to see If bis men were ready, what he saw was "Sata resa." He knew enough to realize that something was wrong, but how to right It was more than he could tell. After changing a man here and there he got It "Starasea." But 6tlll It didn't seem correct. By this time the poor fellow was In a terrible state. If any of their em ployers' people were on the Outlook and could see them, their day's wage would be stopped! He tried again and yet again, but it was no use. And a miaent later a man bearing the letter "S" before and behind was seen running toward the music hall to copy down the name from one of the posters there. And along the right side of Princeton street there walked toward the appointed rendervous at the Mound three men who bore the strange device "A A E," while opposite them there paced alopg the left side gutter four others, who. If to advertise means to attract attention, succeeded well, for every one who passed looked around in wondering amazement as to what "Rats" meant Edinburgh Dis patch. ,4 . - Everybody Satitfitd.
