Death by Uectrtclty New Jersey now follow* the other States which execute murderer* with electricity. Poor to the time when New York introduced the tirat death chair binging was the universal method of execution in this country. The original outcry against electricity because ii was a mysterious and an unusual mean- | to inflict death long since passed swsT. Practice has shown that there are fewei hideous scenes in the death room that there are on the gallows. Criminologist* and debating societier will never end the diacnaaion as to whether or not the law ha* a real righi to take any man’s life. It will be contended tost imprisonment until death, with no possible pardon, would serve every end of justice. While this may be Due enough there lingers in the bnman race the animal inslinet of destroying that which killa. It will be a long while before the principle of an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth will be diminated in civilised

Tbe Firm Vote of the Plllpino# On July 30 next, all males in tbe Philippin; islands not under twenty-three revs of age, and not citizens or subject* of any foreign powers, will be permitted to vote for member* of the Phil ippme Assembly, and for provincial Governors, a third member of the provincial board, municipal counsellor*. This will be the Aral atep toward* KUipino self-government Tbe first Assembly will convene early in October ol this year. Secretary Taft wHl be present at this meeting of tbe Assembly. American dtixens coming within the requirements will be permitted the right of sufirage, for American dtixens are not considered 'subjects of any foreign power. The firsr Philippine Assembly will consist of eighty-four members, apportioned on the basis of one delegate for each WUUUof population. Provision is made to Increase this number, but tbe total number of delegates cannot exceed one bunpred. All acts of tbe Assembly most secure tbe app'oval of the Philippine Commission before they become laws.

Colby Not a Candidate Henry Marelli, former Assemblyman

reived a letter from Senator Colby, who is in Hot Springs. Va., declaring that be is not and will not be a candid Ur for Governor. Tbe letter ia in reply to a telegram notifying him that tbe Republican Ix-agoe of Passaic connty has unanimously declared for him for Governor. Senator t’olbr aaya: “1 have been elected by tbe people of Essex connty to tbe State Senate for a term of three years. And it is not in line with my views of public duty and responsibility to seek higher honors before that term has expired onlres it is very evident that by eo doing greater service might be rendered, which, In my opin*lon.D not tbe eaae in this instance."

We nre not surprised to tee tbe LootsTitle Courier-Journal demanding more money for tbe Improvement of tbe waterways. Pretty nearly everything in Kentucky ia a waterway sinoe tbe counties voted on local option.

ART8 OF THE BOMBMAKER.

So expert arc bombmakers nowaday* that an apimrently hannlea* letter may kill any person who trie* to open It. A piece of cardboard la cut to a alee, which when folded over, will fit Into an ordinary envelope. Tbe lour corners of this are tilt Into narrow at.-llia. Fulminate of mercury 1» spread over three of the slits and the sheet la folded and fastened together. Projecting from each aide of tbe folded ahect la a little metal atrip, or detonator. glued to tbe cardboard In auch a manner that tbe envelope cannot be opened without striking one of them. Upon meeting this alight resistance the hand moving the paper cutter Instinctively pushes harder, and the result Is an explosion that either kills or malms. The easiest bomb to constnict is tet In operation by simply turning tt up side down, it Is usually a good sited cracker box. lined with paper and halffilled with a mixture of chlorate of potassium and ordinary sugar. Into this a bottle of a powerful add is introduced. The remainder of the space In the box la filled with scraps of metal. Then the lid la soldered on. All that Is then necessary la to place the box npslde down at the spot In which It It to explode. The add eats quickly through the cork of the bottle, and comes In contact with the chlorate of potassium As a result of the chemical combination which takes place there is a terrific explosion.

WATCHES FOR THE BUND.

The blind, like other mortals, with to know tbe time exactly, and as very few of them are In a position to ac cure a good repeating watch, whose cost is always great, they hare to be content with ordinary watches, and taking the crystal out of tbe face they ascertain the time by the angles and position of tbe bands, which frequent ■y causes disarrangement of the timepiece. In view of these difficulties a foreign firm has constructed a watch for the blind, which represents figures In allegorical manner, and appatently la very convenient. The signs In relief are the following: One o'clock, one dot; two o’clock. tw< dots; three o'clock, a triangle; four o’clock, a square; five o’clock, a five pointed star; six o’clock, an ellpse. These same signs are repeated bas-relief representing tbe hours fro six to 12. The number of eigne la therefore limited to six. and It la very easy to ascertain from them the time of day. The hands are very (Dong and the watch has been used with good results. Another watch for the blind has been Invented by M. Pierre TlssotBeraof, by which the blind can tell not only the hour, but also the m'.nnte. The hours are represented by figures of the Braille system.

TOOK THE FIRM'S TRADEMARKS

A Minnesota flooring mill company has recently had aa experience lu Ho' land which will not only make It mon careful la the future but will serve as s warning to other concerns to juty atrict attention to the protection of Itr own brands of floor under the pecu liar registration laws of Holland. For n number of year* the company alluded to sold one concern In Amsterdam under one of lu mill brinds. a name made famous both in this country and abroad by years of quality and advertising, and to another concern In Rotterdam, under another mill brand, also well advertised and generally Not long ago It occurred to the mill that it would be a good Idea to register It* brands In foreign countries and It proceeded to do so. it then discovered that Its Dutch corres.. ind ents had both registered Its brand In their own name*. It requested them to transfer the registration to the mil! name. This was positively refused. Thus the mill Is actually deprived of the use of Its own brands unless It sells to the two concerns and no else. Under tbe laws of Holland thrae former representatives could prevent the mill shipping Hour to other part let under ID own established brand. Other Minnesota mills hare had the same unpleasant experience.

A Projectile Camera. A projectile to take photograph*, and claimed to have been successful at heights up to half a mile. Is the Idea of Herr Marie, a German photographer. A camera having the form of the usual conoids! shell, la thrown Into the air by means of a kind of trap At a predetermined angle, as the camera turns to make Its descent and Is pointed slightly downward, the shutter It automatically released and the picture la taken of n broad pause of country. In a till air tbe flight and spot at which the aerial camera will fall can be calculated with much precision. Precautions are taken to avoid damage by concussion. and the results are expected to be of great possible value in military

Buffalo Herds. There are not. nil told, more than 1.500 buffalo remaining la tbe United State* and Canada." said Mr. C. J. Jonea of Grand Canyon, Arts. Mr. Jones has for years bora* the sobriquet of "Buffalo Jones," because of his efforts to perpetuate the bison breed. He la alio distinguished for hi* successful experiments In crossing the buffalo with the domestic cattle, producing n high-bred animal, to which be has glean the name of "ca-

WOMAN ROSE IN REVOLT.

A few evenings ago a train made op of two ordinary passenger coaches and a baggage car pulled Into Union station from the yard, prepared to go out over one of the branch roads, says the Providence Journal. Tbe hands of the sUtlon clock pointed to a few minutes of the schedule time of departure and tbe shivering passengers who had boon standing on the station platform laden with bun dies quickly filled the coaches. Men and women alike sought seats In both of tbe coaches, when n brakeman entered the car and after answering a score of questions In tbe affirms live that the head coach was the smoking car a fat woman loaded down with bundles approached him asked: "Say, mister, to this the smoking car?" “Of course It to the smoking said the brakeman. "Docs It look like a parlor car?" The fat woman pulled (her cloak closer shout her shoulders before she replied: Tt looks like a cattle ear ai feels like an Ice box.’’ she said. "Evidently you folks think tbe people who rid* on this line are paying for cold storage and Impudence." Not What He Expected. Rev. Rodney Swope, rector of the Vanderbilt church at Asheville, said the other night la the coarse of an address: "Subtle attacks are the most wounding. You have beard about the clergyman and bis aged parishioner? "The parishioner said that thought clergymen shonld be better 1 am pleased to hear you say that. Brother Brown.' exclaimed the clergyman. beaming with good will and happiness. Tt rejoices my heart to

Cause for Regret. A Scot who had been n long time In the colonies, paid a visit to bis "native glen." and meeting an old school fellow the two eat down to chat about old times and acquaintances. In the course of the conversation the stranger happened to ask shorn certain Gordie McKay. “He’s dead long ago.” said hit friend, “and Fll never cease regrettln’ him at long as I live."

"Na. ns! It wasn’t only respec* f had for himself, hot I married his widow."
