It contains a complete resume of important events leading up to the war between England and the Boers, with adescriptionof Capo Colony, Natal_and tho Orange Free State and South African Republic, snowing area, population, production, railways, tele graphs, transportation routes, foreign commerce, religion and climate; also the lighting-strongth and-resources_of_the combatants in the struggle for suprem acy in tho greatest gold-producing coun try in the world.

' _________ _ A Bad Accident\ ' A terrible trolloy car accident occurd between Homer and Cortland last Thurs day morningr Which resulted in the death of two persons, and the terrible injury of another.' Tho track of tho Homer and Cortland Traction Company crosses the trackVof the D. L. & W. Railroad about midway between Cortland and Homer. On the morning mentioned a milk train on tie latter road left the Homer station a little late, and was passing the.crossing at a high rate of speed, when i t crashed into a trolley car containing three pass engers, the motorman and conductor. The conductor and one passenger saved their lives, by jumping, but the. two other passengers were killed, and the motorman very seriously injured. Tho blame for the accident is laid to those in charge of the trolley-car, as it did not stop, as is usual, for the conductor to g o ahead and examine tho track before crossing. , ' \ . , •'. \Why Zinc? White-lead chalks'off; zinc prevents it. Devpe lead and Zino, ground together, wears twice as long as lead and oil., Uses-For Corn Stalks .. Half a dozen years ago tho fanner considered.the value of his corn crop to be practically terminated ,with tho husk ing of tho corn. What was left was worth a very small sum an acre as fod der. Many experimenters, however, working along different lines have estab lished the value of tho by-products of the'corn crop, and there is now a home market where a farmer can got from $8 to $5 a ton for corn stalks, §o that their value is now from $6 to $12 an acre. The American Agriculturist recently gave tho .following list of what can be made from corn stalks; first, colluloso for packings coffer-dams on-our ships; second, pyroxyline varnish; third, collu- lbse for nitrating purposes for making smokeless powder and other .explosives; fourth, as a packing material; fifth, for paper pulp and .the various forms, of paper made therefrom, both alone and mixed with other grades of paper stock; sixth, as a stock food made from the fine outer shells or shives of tho corn stalks and also from the nodes, or joints. The leaves or tassels.also furnish a shredded or bale fodder; seventh, mixed foods for stock containing flrio ground shell or shlvos as a baso and in addition there to various nitrbgonous materials and con centrated food substances, or blood, mo lasses, distillery and glucose refuse, su gar beet pulp, apple pomace and other by-products; and eighth, poultry foods. —Scientific American. The Philippine Problem We shall learn in time that among races representing every phase of human progress, from barbarism to a fairly ad- vanced typo of civilization no uniform rule ,of action \will suffice, oxcopt por- haps this, that our .first duty is' to find out how best to help this mass of divers people to holp .themselves. Even 'on the Island Luzon no uniform plan of govern mont could succeed, but what is best for Luzon may not bo best for Negro's or Gobn, while it is probable that a soheme which fits any of them would bo found unworkable in Mindinao. If we succeed in solving tho problem of the Philippines as well as the British have done in India or in tho Malay States wo shall have no Tcasonto apologize to the oivilized world for the results of our stewardship.

The Hayseeds of New York That tho persons who really deserve to bo called \hayseeds\ live, not in the rural districts, but in the city of New York, has just boon demonstrated once more, On Saturday Admiral Dewey was compelled to appeal for relief from the annoyance inflicted upon him by crowds which collected around him and Mrs. Dewey whenever they appeared in the Btroot, and followed them about, obstructing their way, forcing their moro or less well-moant attentions upon them, staring at them as if ,thcy were curiosities and making all sorts of re- marks, obviously intended to be audible to evcryono about.—Albany Journal. Appendicitis Caused by the Habit of Crossingf the Legs i A foreign surgeon has put forward the suggestion that appendicitis is caused by the-liabit of crossing the-logs^ which* restricts the action of the digestive ap paratus. The appendix is only loosely attached to the caecum, and there is al ways some half-digested food in -tho CJfical bag. By crossing tile lejrs there is liability that the undigested food~may pass .into the vermiform appendix and set up an inflamation. in a few hours pathological processes set in, and an at tack of appendicitis is developed.—Scien tific American. Bryan's Satisfaction * Bryan is satisfied with the result of the election, of course. He is always convinced that ho is going to win next time, and the fact that he has just been badly beaten never affects his confl- dencer-The-defeat-of-his -party-in-1890 made him sure that it would succeed in 1897; the defeat of 1897, that victory was assured in 1898; and the defeat of 1898, that i t would win in 1899.' Long experience has thus prepared him to figure out tho vindication of Bryanism in last week's election.—Evening Post. Secretary John Hay In tho good sense and diplomatic ability of Secretary John Hay the. coun try, has learned to have confidence. His mind is wide awake.' While h e is a- man of imagination and sentiment, he is not at all likely to subordinate to merely sentimental considerations any material interest committed .to his statesmanship.—The Sun. Over 250 of the rural residents • of the town of Lenox have petitioned the Post- office Department for the\ establishment of rural free delivery from the Canastota office. - ''• .' \v --'r;' AT THE THEATRES Bastable Theater « «? £ < - The phenomenally successful sensa tional melodrama, \King of the'Opium Ring,\ which has been presented to a succession of crowded houses at. the Academy of Music, Now York, for 150 nights, comes to the Bastablo the last throe nights of this week. Few plays have boon seon on tho stage that •. reflect Chinese character as it is. Tho plot is laid in the heart of • San. Francisco's Chinatown, aiid takes place about 1890. Specialties are introduced as part of the' festivities. Tho company is ono of moro than ordinary excellence, and\ is mado mosf'comploto, by a .number of, nativo Ohinose. \ ,\ & fc' in • / The much-talked of \Jones\ eomes to the.Bastable the first throe nights of noxt wook, and a matinee on Webnes- day, with the following clovor cast: John Allison, H.

Tho farce has two vory-amusing sub-plots, which, togothor wij;h tho main theme, furnish the groundwork for some of the most amusing complications seen in -any farce of recont years. m k it' Grand Opera House -'The 'Success of high- olass-vaudeville at the Grand has beon an incentive\ for Manager Shubort to give an entertain ment this week which will afford its patrons unusual pleasure, for tho rea son that \tho performers aro all popular favorites and eaoh* aot is a comploto change from anything seen here during this season. •' - ' ' 18 « Hf , Continued interest is bound to be awakoned in high-class vaudovillo per formances next week, at tho Grand Opera House, when tho following flrst- olass program will be presented: Mun- roe and Mack, farce comedy stars; tho Misses Melvillo and Stetson, in topical songs and. dialect imitation; Josoph Adolmann, the world's famous xylo phone virtuoso; tho Brothers Herman- otti, in a grand display of science and strength; Mile.

The New Goyernment Office Printing Tho new government printing office will cost about $2,000,000, and it is said that even after its completion it will not be large enough to meet tho demands upon it. The now building will be eight stories in height, and its floor space will be about nine acres. The floors will sustainal6ad-of86i000,000pounds.; -The building, will be constructed in such a -substantial manner, that nearly tho._en- tire space can be filled with-papor and books without injuring its stability in any 'degree. Access to tho various floors will be obtained by twelve electric ele vators. Tho building will' be.lighted [•with 7,000 incandescent lights.' A re frigerating plant will furnish cold Alter ed water op every floor for drinking purposes.\ \A large crematory will de stroy all the refuse material, and this will aid i n heating water, etc. It is hoped in time that Congress will appro priate the money for modern typesetting machines, but it i s probable'that when the/census is complete-and the reports published, the equipment of -the census printing office will revert to tho govern ment -printing-office.—Scientific Ameri can.

It is claimed that the small amount of business mado tho line unprofitable, but. it is surmised that the matter of assess-: ments.hns had something to do with the. lino's removal. Tho company has always complained, that it was assessed for more than it cost to erect the lines, in 'several of the towns', and in some coses has re- \ sorted to legal process to got the assess ments reduced. Quite likely if there had\' been no trouble over 1 assessments tho company would bavefound it more'prof itable to let the line remain than to 're-;, move iti—Oozenovia Republican. .<•,'«'•
