According to Herr Japin, the hourly rate of water falling over Niagara falls is 10,000,000tons, representing 10,000,(NX) horse power, and the total daily produc tion of coal in the world would just about suffice to pump the water back agair. The export of gold from the United States to Europe is causing uneasiness in Wall street, but the money kings can give no explanation of the heavy drain upon the yellow metal. They only know that it is going for a sea voyage and cannot tell when it will return. Wire netting for the destruction of the coming mosquito, is a late inyen tion.

In which consists the invention. Tub Athens Banner is complaining of tho service on the Georgia railroad from Union Point to Athens. The best remedy for the trouble is to move Athens out to the main line or let her build a road of her own, as Amerious has done. Branch roads are not very desirable to live on, but are sometimes good feeders. The study of the McKinley bill still goes on, and among the other things on which there Is a tariff, are Italian queen bees,which are taxed twenty per cent., in order to protect the home bee In the manufacture of honey. While there is no mention of the fact in the free list, yet we all know that Italian assassins are admitted free of duty. \ Mr. Oolesby in ono of bis letters to the Advertiser said "the only womap on record who was the wife of a governor, the sister of a governor, the netce of a governor and the aunt and foster mother of a govornor was a southern woman.” In his pamphlet he gives the name of this woman as Mrs. Richard Manning, of South Carolina.-—Montgomery Adver tiser. “What do I think the Western and Atlantic commission will do?” repeated a prominent official yesterday. "I’ll bet a new bat I can hit upon the decision. They will grant tho lessees tho amount of taxes paid to the state of Tennessee and will pay for additional rolling stock and articles that could have been remov ed and realized upon by the lossoes. But they will give no betterments—nothing for fixtures.”—Constitution. ematically demonstrated that the world will come to an end on or before the first day of April, 1891), or inside of the next 2,878 days? It is a fact, nevertheless: that is to say it’s a fact that it has been demonstrated, not that it will actually take place. Prof. Totten, a West Point officer and a professor in Yale college, a man of learning and ability, claims to have fig ured it out from various prophesis in the Bible, and in a late number of Frank Leslie gave a statement of bis theory and a reason of the faith that is in him. J list is yet to be figured out by this mathe matical gentleman, but the idea seems to be that the inillenium will begin, and that the second coming of Christ will probably be a part and parcel of this re markable event. Prof. Totten wxites like he was in dead earnest, and it is difficult to determine whether he is merely guying the world for amusement, or is really cranky enough to think he can Interpret prophecies that have battled the inge nuity of theologians for centuries. The Millerites and Second Adventists have made this idea a laughing stock for years. So much so that it would be im possible for Prof. Totten or anybody else to command the serious attention of the scientific and enlightened world while be endeavors to prove the exact day of the final collapse of mundane affairs. There is something rather suspicious in the fact that Prof. Totten puts the last day on 'April 1st, though he thinks it is more likely to occur at an earlier date. He says that the next ten months is all tho time left for the world to get itself in shape for the great event, for on April 1st, 1892, the time, will end when the beginning of the end will end Its beginning, or other lucid words to that effect. Meantime, what are you going to do about !t?Shall we repennt,asdidthoNlne- vitos, when Jonah predicted the destruc tion of Nlnevab, or will we go on, as did the Antediluvians when Noah wasted CLEVELAND IX BUFFALO. J Ex-President Grover Cleveland re ceived an ovation at Buffalo, N. Y., his old home, Monday night. The occasion was the opening of a new club house of ; the Cleveland Democracy, a democratic j organization which has a membership of I seventeen hundred, and Mr. Cleveland Old L-cUTl&r S delivered the address. The club house j was packed to suffocation, and standing j room was at a premium.

Judge Crisp Is in the city to-day. He came up from Americns last night. Every one who met him to-day con gratulated him on his favorhble chances of being elected speaker of the next house, nil recent reports from Washing ton being to tile effect that his election Is practically a certainty. And that’s just it. Judge Crisp will next occupy tho chair which but once bofore In the history of tills country has been occu pied by a Georgian. It was then Speaker Cobb. This time it will be Speaker Crisp. The people of all Georgia, and almost all the south are for Crisp for speaker," said Hon. Carter Tate, of Pickins, at the Kimball last owning; “and If it be true, has os been slated, that there are two or three Georgia congressmen attempting to knife him, they will find thomsolvos cut into mince meat, politicially, when tho next elec tion comes. The young men of Georgia should see to It. that none of this knifing business, claimed by outside papers, goes on. I would gladly bo one of 100 ypung men to gu on to Washing ton next fall to whoop up for Crisp. Of course,that would not bo expected to Intluence the rotes of congressmen, but It wonld show that his own state is solidly, unanimously for him, outside organs of other candidates to the con trary notwithstanding.” Judge Crisp doesn’t talk much about the outlook, but he says he thinks his chances good.—Atlanta cor.

In the Southern Bap tist Convention Saturday, in a speech, Mr. Taylor, whose father is a missionary at Rome, Italy, pleaded for reinforce ments. “Look at the fruit of Cathol icism,” he said, “see the curse and.send them the Gospel.” Dr. A. J. Holt said: “Papal Europe is teeming with infidel- Ity and Idolatry, fostered by papallsm. 1 ' In the Daily News Father J. Daley, of St Paul's Catholic cburoli comes back with a red hot card, and redacts severely upon Protestant ministers for making themselves scarco in times of epidemic, and concludes: “And for answer to all calumnies, we will but point to tho silent graves of our Priests and our Sisters of Charity who gave up their lives to com fort the dying in times.of drend pesti lence and death.” Tax New York Sun suggests that the republicans of New York nominate Hon. Chauncy M. Depew for governor, and thinks that he could poll more votes than any other man in the republican ranks. And then, too, if he should be avcldantly elected, he would be the leading man for the republican nomina tion for president In ’02, Tho Sun says that Mr. Dcpew ir the most popular re publican in the state, arid while it doei' not think that his chances for election see him in the race just for the fair of the thing. EnrroR Gantt says ho has recently received several anonymous letters from different paits of the state, containing ell manner of threats and abuse because of bit defense of the alliance cause. H Editor Gantt wasn't such a comical cuts, the publlo might suppose that he con tained the stuff out of which msrtyrs were made. But tt’e no use; he can’t be serious even in the face of the kuklux, and if some wicked anti-alliance people should actually bushwhack Editor Larry, tho people at large would regard It as one of hts jokes. Let Editor Gantt quit being so excruciatingly funny. The senatorial dcad-lock still contin ues in the Florida legislature, and the Jacksonville Timcs-Unlon Is thereby led to remark that as the dead-lock contin ues and the expense to.the taxpayers go on increasing every day, the people are becoming more and more persuaded that the election of United States senators should be by popular vote. The schem ing politician and the boodler need a set back In this country and In this state. The Kansas papers say that ex-Sena- tor Ingalls Is devoting himself to his truck farm, and that any day he can be seen in his field hard at work, when lie la not entertaining the correspondents who call to Interview him on political matters generally. It must be a pleas ing spectaole to the neighboring farm ers to sit on tho fence of Mr. Ingalls' field and watch him as h s wields the glittering hoe, stopping ivery now and then to take a chew of tobacco and to spit on bit hnndsms lie glances up to see how high the sun Is. It is likely, how ever, that despite the statements of the republican papers and their descriptions of Mr. Ingalls in high boots ond big hat and hayseed in bis hair, that hit farming Is theoretical and not practical. If be is planting anything at all it Is taffy among the farmers, from which he ex pects to raise a large crop of votes In the near future.
