How much of patriotism is there, do you think, inthe present-day celebration of the Fourth of July? Istit not safe to say that not one in fifty of those who make the day deadly and deafening give a thought to the meaning of thc occasion? The holiday has become the natal farmer as fertllizer. In Norway a plant has been established which has been conducted with such good results that T expect to see atmospheric fer- tilizer on the market in this country within the next ten years. That such & product will soon be imperatively necessary there is no doubt. Every shipload of wheat and corn which goes abroad leaves the United States so much poorer, not in gold but in nitro- gen.” Mr. Edison continued: “Another sclentific discovery which I expect to see before I die is the direct genera- tion of electricity from coal. This has already been achieved in an ex- perimental way. I have heard of sev- eral men who have done it. Imagfe what will be the consequences. At the present time nine-tenths of the power obtained from coal is lost by the use of boilers, wheels and dynamos. With the direct generation of the electrical current, therefore, the world will have ten times more energy than now.” TAFT IS INDISPOSED. day of license, not of liberty; selfish- ness, not of patriotism. The indi- vidual who place dynamite caps on street car tracks, who fires alrevolver who throws giant crackers about is rot inspired by love of country; for love of country inculcates respect for the law, and such a one is a law breaker. Has not the time come to rehabilitate the law and make it supreme on that day which once com- memorated the achieving of our liberty? When the Zountry was a small boy, as it were, and the Fourth of July fireworks were the amusement of small boys, and not in large measure of the criminal element, the firecracker was a niiisance but not a menace. Butit isno longer a noise- making device to amuse the childish; it has become an instrument of de- struction ready at the hand of every- one who frets at all times under law- ful restraint and seizes upon July 4 as the great day when it is permitted him to maim, to kill and to destroy— all in the name of patriotism! Mayor Busse has acted promptly and wisely in seeking thus early to regulate the celebration and to prohibit fireworks in their most dangerous forms, but mayor and police both will be powerless to ac- complish much unless public senti- ment and public action co-operate with them to stamp out lawlessness to protect life. The sick and the young are the greatest sufferers on July 4. The police do all that is possible to protect the former; it is time the public-spirited citizens did some- thing to safeguard the latter .on the day of carnage.

Chicago, June 15.—A dispatch to the Tribune from Peoria, Ill,, says: Under promise of immunity from further prosecution and of a pardon from the Joliet penitentiary by Gov- ernor Deneen “Eddie” Tate, the “gen- tleman burglar,” admitted that he helped to blow the school board safe and stole 6,000 pieces of forged scrip being held as evidence against the former superintendent of schools, New- ton C. Dougherty. Tate said he robbed the safe on the night of Jan. 6 and that he was assist- ed by Eddie Fay and Patsy Flaherty. He says $4,800 was paid the_three men by a prominent Peorian repre- senting Dougherty. Tate will explain in detail to the grand jury how the affair was planned by Dougherty and his friends and how it was carried out. Until he was given absolute assurance that he had a chance for freedom he denied that he was implicated, but insisted that he knew who did the work. State’s Attorney Scholes is confi- dent that sufficient corroborative evi- dence can be procured to warrant in- dictments against one and perhaps more of the wealthy Peorians who now are suspected of having had a Tacoma-Vancouver Electric Line. Beflingham, Wash., June 1 .—A deal Involving more than $1,000,000 and the construction of an electric railway system from Tacoma to Vancouver, B. C., was closed this week when Stone & Webster of Boston purchased the holdings and franchises of the Everett Electric company. This transfer in- sures the long talked of Tacoma-Van- couver line. 2 Able For-the Rest. | Becomes Suddenly Il While at Fort Snelling. St. Paul, June 15—A sudden indis- position on the part of Secretary THft put an end to his visit of inspection at Fort Snelling. S It was said that the secretary had been suffering all night from ptomaine poisoning and had had no sleep. He BECRETARY W. H. TAFT. was riding on horseback at the review of the troops when he suddenly felt ill and asked to be excused. For a few minutes the secretary was almost in a fainting condition. He was taken to the residence of J. C. Hill and a physician summoned. Secretary Taft arrived in the city at 10:15 a. m. and remained at the Com- mercial club just thirty-five minutes before starting in a motor car for Fort Snelling on a tour of inspection. GOURTS INDIRECT CONFLICT State and Federal Injunctions in Rate Law Fight. Kansas City, June 15.—Upon appli- cation of Attorney General Hadley Judge Parks, in the circuit court here, issued orders upon - the representa- tives here of eighteen principal Mis- souri railroads compelling them to obey the 2-cent passenger rate and the maximum freight rate bills which went into effect at midnight. This brings the circuit court into conflict with the United States distriet court, before which the railroads are suing for an injunction to prevent the state officials from enforcing these laws. The effect of the injunction issued by the state courts will be to compel the railroads to obey the 2-cent fare and maximum freight rate laws until the courts pass upon their validity. The railroads’ plan has been to enjoin the enforcement of the law until the courts determine their constitutional- ity. ‘When the case of the railroads was called before Judge McPherson in the federal court he ‘ordered it postponed for a day. The court said that in the meantime his order restraining the state officials from enforcing the acts in question would continue in effect. Thus the’circuit court and the United States district court are brought into direct confliet. ~ THREE AGED WOMEN PERISH Shaker Settlement in Ohio Visited by Fatal Fire. Cincinnati, June 15.—Three women were burned to death and two men seriously injured in a fire that de- stroyed the four principal houses of the Shaker settlement at Whitewater village, near Harrison, O. Fire was discovered in the main building, probably originating from a defective flue. The flames spread with great rapidity and the means for fighting _fire being inadequate there was no_hope from the start of saving the structures. Mrs. Kuele Bear, Kath- erine Sterr and Mary Middletown, the three aged women who occupied quar- ters in the main building, were burned to death before any one could arouse them. Charles Sterr and Andrew Bass, in making their escape from the burning buildings, were seriously in- jured. Sterr was injured in an “en- deavor to reach the safe in the office of the main building, but being cut off by flames and smoke he was compelled to jump from a window to save him- self. The loss is. estimated at $20,000, “Willlam, were you ever whipped at school?” querled-the visitor. “Only by the teacher,” was the rath- er significant reply.—Chicago News. DISCOVERIES OF SCIENCE Edison Promises Wonderful Things in Next Ten Years. New York, June 15.—Thomas A. Edison is quotéd in an interview as predicting that before long science will enable the farmer to enrich his lands by means of nitrogen from the air. He said: “Until recently the utilization of at- mospheric nitrogen was regarded as merely a laboratory demonstration, Business men said it would never be obtained cheaply enough to gell to the partly covered by lnsurugg. ON NINETY-FIVE -COUNTS. President King of Scotland (S. D.) Bank Indicted. Pierre, S. D., June 16.—The federal grand jury has indicted on ninety-five counts Charles C. King, formerly pres- ident of the First National bank of Scotland, 8. D. Five of the counts are for embezzlment, thirty for misappro- priation of securities and funds and thirty-six for false entries and returns. The ‘other counts are for fraudulent issue of certificates and drafts. The case was worked up by National Bank Examiner James A: Cline of Lincoln, Neb., who has put several months on the task. King was given twenty-four hours to plead. SSOLUTIONDELAYED Russian Duma Adjourns Without Acting on Ultimatum, CITY FILLED WITH TROOPS Garrison at St. Petersburg Now Dou- ble Its Ordinary Strength in Antici- pation of Serious Trouble When Par- liament Is Dissolved. St. Petersburg, June 17.—The rec- ommendation of the parliamentary committee which has been examining the indictment against the Social Dem- ocratic members that it be given an- other day to report, as it was-impos- sible to review all the evidence in one day, was accepted by the house against the energetic opposition of the right and parliament adjourned. M. Texeretoli, Social Democrat, again attempted to bring on a discus. sion of the grarian law and the law abolishing the death penalty, propos- ing an evening session in order to dis- cuss “these important measures of state,” but this also was rejected. With the exception of the official Rossia and Novoe Vremya the news- papers unanimously criticise the gov- ernment’s action and see in the de- mand for the suspension of the Social Democratic members only a pretext and not a real reason for the dissolu- tion of parliament. The city has again assumed the ap- pearance of an armed camp. The guard regimonts have left their sum- mer camp at Krasnoye-Selo for St. Petersburg and throughout the night detachments of infantry and cavalry have been arriving here. The garri- son of St. Petersburg is now Double Its Ordinary Strength, the guards being replaced by regi- ments of the line when the former went into camp. Long lines of trans- port wagons, with camp equipgges, ete,, trundled through the main streets all morning, interspersed with occa- sional detachments of cavalry and in- fantry marching to their quarters. Otherwise the center of the city bore its usual ‘dppearance, but the indus- trial sections literally bristled with troops. Every railroad station is oc- cupied by two companies of infantry and two squadrons of cavalry and ar- mored military trains are held in readiness in view of the possibility of the outbreak of a railroad strike and the reserves of all the regiments are confined to barracks. All the railroad stations are watched by secret police in order to prevent the escape of the Social Democratic deputies and revo- lutionary agitators, -among whom a general exodus is expected when par- liament is dissolved. In spite of these alarming prepara- tions, however, there is slight expecta- tion among the reasonable elements of the population that serious disor- ders will follow the dissolution of par- liament. Strikes in the factories and perhaps minor collisions in the streets are anticipated, but the numbers of the troops are too great to permit of an armed outbreak. DISTURBANCES AT AN END Troops Being Removed From the Isl- and of Leyte. Manila, June 17.—Troops are being removed from the island of Leyte as rapidly as possible. General Mills an- novnces that thers is no necessity for further field work, as he regards the disturbances at-an end. Faustino Ablen, the Pulajane lead- er, who was wounded and captured re- cently, is recovering Trom his wound. He has issued ‘a manifesto directing all his followers to surrender. Francis B. Thornton has been ac- quitted of the charge of compHeity in the quartermaster fraud case. The public prosecutor says that unless new evidence is forthcoming Captain Fred C. Cole will not be tried. Thorn- ton was Cole’s chief clerk. RESULT OF GRAFT CRUSADE “Frisco Will Have Good Government for Ten Years. New York, June 17.—Former Mayor James D. Phelan of San Francisco, who is at the Waldorf-Astoria, is quoted in’an interview as saying that San Francisco: will be good for ten years as a result of the graft crusade. Mr. Phelan said: “San Francisco will have goad gov- ernment for ten years, or until men forget the lesson. Some one has said that memory takes: a vacation every ten years. We have shown the rest of the world that we mean business and the moral effect of our probe on the entire country is bound to have & beneficial effect.” Chinese Insurgents Defeated. Hongkong, China, June 17.—Reports from Weichou say that two regiments of Chinese troops recently engaged the Insurgents at Patszetan, with the re- sult that the latter were compelled to retreat across the East river and later were dispersed. = The regular troops lost one officer and-twenty soldiers killed and had a number wounded. Two Rivers on Rampage. New Ulm, Minn., June 17.—The Minnesota and Cottonwood rivers are on a rampage and are flooding the lowlands and ruining many of the grain and corn flelds. The floods are caused by the heavy rains during the bast week. The Cottonwood river rose twelve feet since June 9 and has broken all records since June, 1881. BRIEF BITS OF NEWS.
