Ho rapid haa been tlio change in thr English langnage that the Ennliah to¬ day-hears no more reaomblance to tha English of lOOn years ago than it does to German.
Inatead of the old aigu. "Five Dol¬ lara fine fur riding or driving across thia Viri.Ige faster than a walk," will be one, at each end of the new Milan Bridge at T.ipeka. Kan,, rea.ling, "No re,itrieti.)n." One „f the tests of llie bri.lge was the rnnning of teams across the same at fnll spee.l. Only annther evidence of the advance of practical ideas in science.
In or.ler to assist in ffettinf^ fallen horsea to their feet frnm slippery ^freeta, the Department of Pnlilic Works, New Vork City, is jilacing boxes filled with sand upon the side, walks within a few inches of thi. cnrli- where they may hp opened in an emergency nnd the aand carried to where it is needed. This is an excel¬ lent and humane idea, and will be wel conicil by all  drivers in wet weather.
For tho second time a wonian has won a prize debate atrr>rnell Univers¬ ity, the '!)4 memorial prize being awarded lo Miss Aliigail Laiighlin,'98. Another fair orator won the Woodford medal aeveral years ago. By holding their own in these mrre conspicnons competitions, aa well ashy the rank they attain in examinations,the a-omeu stndenta at Cornell continue to justify by thoir tiorks the principle of co-ed- ncation of the sexes.
".Some idea of the formidable char, aoter of our pension expenses may be gathered," notea the New York Inde¬ pendent, "from the faot that the total payments, incltliling expense of ad¬ ministration, etc., nmonnts to $2,178,- 7."iH,i!7il in the pnst thirty two years, from an.l inclusive of 1866. These enormous expeiulitiirea were on ac- ciiuiit of the Uevoliitionary War, the War Ilf 1812, Ihe Mexican nnd Indian Wars and the Civil War. The cost of nioilorn wars is truly prohibitory."
The fnlBifii-atiiiii nf wine, lur many years a growing iuilustry in (toriiinny, now is to lie made alegalir.ed industry as well, writes Wjlf von Si-hierbran.l. The product ia to be known nn.ler the name of "Kunatwein." Tlie govern¬ ment ia to get a tnx of twenty marks for each hoct,.liter, an.l the stuff,prop¬ erly laliel.'d, is t.i he s.ild openly. The Federation of Hiialian.lmen stan.In sponsor f.ir this qneer attempt to make the wholesale .lefran.liiig ofthe public a legal net. The bill already has bean drawn up.

Oeneral Roy Stone, Acting Presi¬ dent of the National League for Oood Roa.ls, believes tbnt ho haa found a way to make p.istal savings banka an.l goo.l roa<ls promote each other. Hia plan, in brief, ia that postal savings banks shall be established, and that the Postiiftice Department shall invest the deposits in onnnfy lionda for the building of goml roads. The aoheme is favored by the I.enguB of Americnn Wheelmen, road improvement associa¬ tions generally, nnd many educational institutions. C, W, Htone, a member of (Congress from Pennsylvania, has embodied it in a propose.l i^ineiidiiieut lo the Postal Savinga Hill.
