COC CHUN OHO TEHOES kee a In the old days, before blackmail w: systematized and formally incorporated as a part of the regular machinery of the gang of which Croker is now the head, the cor- ruption took the form of tips, comparatively small and compara- tively respectable. The law-breaker “tipped” the captain or, if the offense he wished to commit was mild, only the roundsman and patrolman. But now it is no longer roundsmaw or patrolman who is tipped. These humble members of the force have no influence. It is the captain who must be seen, through his “wardman,” and not | tipped, but paid a large and regular sum, proportioned upon a scale! enforeed throughout the city. The captain subtracts his percentage from this income of infamy and passes the rest to the inspector. | And so it goes on, arriving “higher up” in scores of streams that | have been fed by hundreds of smaller but still large streams. The volume when it reaches “higher up” for the grand distribution! among the big rascals has hardly been noticeably decreased by the percentuges subtracted below. * Whence do these revenues come?

HOW IT AIDS PROGRESS. OBODY knows when the windmm was invented. It {# rumored the old Romans knew of {ts use, end there {s another story that the Saracens Intrdduced {t into Europe. But while the early history of the windmill in shrouded in uncertainty, we do know that !t came to play so important a part in the little kingdom of Holland as to be consllered a national necessity in keeping that courageous nation out of the hands of the rea. In Holland windmills are used to ot | rld of the water; in America they are employed to produce tt. Out on the great pining in Kansas, Dakota, lows and the adjoining States, an ideal placa for yindmills, where tho country Item, flat and the wind sweeps uninterrupted for miles, the Inndscape 1s fairly dotted with them. An estimate has recently been made of the capacity of the windarl running ten hours a day for six months. It was found that an averawe wheel, twelve fect In diameter, with the wind blowing sixteen miles an hour, 1s capable of pumping 1,920 gallons an hour, gallons in a day of ten nour: rallons each month and 5,486,000 gallona In nix months. It is dificult to appreciate the signifi- canoe of this work and the value of the wind-mill as @ factor in the devel- opment of the country. It means in the first place, an abundaneo of water for stock and irrigating purposes, and water alwass means a great increase In the productiveneas of the land. This {s followed by an increase in vaiues and the posstbilities of larger popula- tlon, bigger crops and better prices and. more business and Increased carnings for the transportation lines.
