es ee The Lierad--BReview. —_ a GRAND RAPIDS - “Eating plenty of onions,” says an authority, ‘“‘will give one a fine com- vlexion.” Yes, and the freedom of the car, ‘too. A former Bakotan, who has just re- turned from several years’ sojourn in he Klondike, reports that the climate 1p there is no mere severe than it is n the Dalsotas. But whether he in- ends this as a recommendation of his new homevora drive at-his old is not apparent.

It means aothing in the way 6f deference, and t is extremely dangerous to health. There are more draughts in one ele- vator than .in twenty streets cars— more grip, more bronchitis, more pneu- monia. An elevator.is not a drawing room. It is a vehicle, and we know of none in which it more behooves one to besvcareful. Seeretary Coburn, of the Kansas State Board of Agriculture, in his an- oual report says: Of butter made in families and factories, the aggregate reported. is 37,211,974 pounds, being an increase‘ of 2,204,640 -—pounds over the previous year’s product. The output of cheese, however, is. 98,000 pounds less than one year ago, or 1,043,500 pounds n all, the milk, doubtless, having been diverted to butter making. Milk sold for other purposes than cheese and butter.making amounts to $560,465, At the valuation of the preceding year, the total amount to be credited to the year’s butter, cheese and milk account 5,109,381, an increase of $136,935. Some persons find difficulty in under- standing how, since the images of ob- jects fooked at are inverted in the eyes, we nevertheless see the objects right side-up. Recent experiments by Doc- or Stratton indicate that we possess an interesting power of adjustment in this regard. He wore inverting glasses which reversed everything within reach of eyes, so that, for him, the ground was above and the sky below, while things. on the right side were seen on the left, and things on the left appeared on the right. Continuously for eight days he wore the glasses, and within that time all his bodily movements be- frame adjusted to the new order, so that fre could walk the streets without much difficulty. The recent death of Dr. Thomas W. Evans,.the famous American dentist, at Paris, recalls a romantic incident in Freneh history. \When the French cause was lost and Emperor Napoleon Ill. was taken prisoner at Sedan, in September, 1870, the position of the Empress Eugenie in. Paris became one of great peril. Dr. Evans took the empress under his protection, furnish- ed her with a disguise, and through friends.in the army succeeded in carry- ing her through the lines, with a’ lady attendant, and took ‘her to England, where he.rented for her the house which she still occupies at Chiselhurst. Dr. Evans numbered most of the crowned ‘heads and titled personages, of Europe among his patients. The suffering which he witnessed in. camps: and hospitals in the Crimeanwar made him an .earnest advocate of reforms., He came to this country during the Civil war to help to organize the sani- tary commission, and during the Fran-, co-Prussian war he directed the work of the Red Cross. i The United States Board .on ‘Geo-, graphie Names, which meets .at stated intervals, ‘has just rendered decisions’ cetermining the spelling of 149 -geo-' graphic names. These include a.num-' ber in Alaska, significant at ithis ‘time in view of the Klondike excitement. Many variations of nomenclature for, the same place are encountered, and the board’s action settles the uniform usage. Following is a summary of .ac-; tion taken relating to places canspic-: uously mentioned in the gold stories: ‘As to Klondike, the decision is to spell’ it as here given, and not Clondyke, Klondyke, Chandike, Chandik or Deer, | Reindeer, Trondike nor Thronduck. | One of the lakes of the upper Yukon} was named Lebarge by the Western | Telegraph Expedition in 1868 after | Mike Lebarge, a.member of the explor- | ing party, who is now living some-) where near Ottawa, Canada. Late pub-| jications have fallen into the errer of | spelling this Labarge, but the board adheres to the original form, Lebarge. There is a Lebarge river in Alaska, When Schwatka descended the Yukon in 1883 he named one of the lakes on its headwaters Lindeman after Dr. Moritz Lindeman, now vice-president of the Bremen Geographical Society. This sometimes appears erronéously as Lindemann and Linderman. The board adopts Lindeman. One of the principal tributaries of the upper Yu- kon is the Lewes river, named by Mr. Robert Campbell, of the Hudson Bay Company, about 1848. Jf there is one thing in whiek churches, as a rule, need to be more careful it is in this matter of preach- er’s salaries. With an indifference and an insensibility which we cannot understand many churches seem to think that a contract between them- selves and thejr minister is no con- tract at all. They promise him a defi- nite salary and then pay him whatever is convenient. The gas man, the cool man, and even the sextion must be paid,but the debt owing to the minister is looked upop as altogether righteous @nd proper.

They Had Been Sent to Pro- pose Peace With Autonomy to the Hanged in Conformity to Gen. Re- Insurgents and Were Gomez's Decree—Authorized port by Gen. Lee Anent Ruiv’s Death—Severe Losses to Gen, Pan- do in Recent Engagements. Havana, Dec. 27.—La Lucia has pub- lished a document, claimed to have been authorized by United States Con- sul General Lee, saying that Lieut. Col. Ruiz was executed because he proposed peace in contravention to a decree issued by Gen. Gomez. Reports from Pinar del Rio to the authorities here say that two commis- sioners who were sent to propose peace with autonomy to ‘the insurgents in that province have been hanged in conformity with the decree of Gen. Gomez. Rumors which have been circulated here that ‘Sylvester Scovell, a New York newspaper correspondent, had been hanged ‘by the insurgents are un- true. It is reported that he and Sen- or Rafael Madrigal, the American con- sul at Sancti Spiritus, were the bearers of important dispatches from Presi- dent McKinley to President Masso and Gen. Gomez. Generally speaking the condition of the concentradas is as pitiable as it was during the administration of Gen. Weyler despite Gen. Blanco’s relief de- crees. A relief fund of $100,000 will hardly give the sufferers 20 cents each. La Lucha demands that ‘the amounts expended ‘by municipal authorities for the relief of the destitute inhabitants be published.

Two Men Killed. Greenville, Pa., Dec. 27.—James and Samuel Lytle were killed on the Erie railway near Atlantic. The brothers were driving to a relative’s house to spend Christmas.

Chattanooga, Tenn., Dec. 27.—About 400 employes in the Dayton coal and iron mines are out on a strike because of a dispute of 10 cents per bushel for mining.

More Money Wanted. New York, Dec, 27.—The committee having charge of the Henry George memorial fund have made another ap- peal for subscriptions.

Ww SOCIETY WOMAN SUICIDES. Grief Over the Death of Miss Herbert the Cause. Washington, Dec. 27.—The recent tragic death of Miss Lelia Herbert, the daughter of the ex-secretary of the navy, is given as the re on for the suicide of Miss Annie Virginia Wells, an accomplished young society woman and daughter of Mr. Lewis 8. Wells, a well known attorney. The young waman shot herself through the heart with her brother's revolver at the res- idence of her father, 1811 N_ street northwest. Miss Wells had met Miss Herbert 2 number of times and was very much attached to her. She her- self had been confined to the house for four months by illness, and this, com- bined with the shock caused by the death of her friend, brought on mel- ancholia, which resulted in suicide.

Providence, R. 1., De —A Camp street electri r ran wild and rushed down Olney street hill with the speed of an express train and shot across North Main street and into the corner of a frame building.
