Ile then ex plained the Incidents which Inspired the giving of the money at this timo and declared with emphasis that If the English-speaking race in the Uni ted States and Great Britain were once consolidated in tho movement for international peace, tho success of tho mensuro in the rest of tho world would be assured. That Great Drltain stood ready to co-operate with this country Mr. Carnegie said he felt certain, and all that was now nestled, he added, was tho concur-/! renee of tho President and tho .Sen ate In promulgating tho movement on behalf of tho United States.

Daron de Constant, the French member of Tho Hague Peace Tri bunal, one of tho leaders in tho French Chamber of Deputies when the Peaco Conf?rence was called In 1809, who came to this country In 1902 to lecture on tho work which was started In Thc llaugue, has ca bled as follows \o ?he Now York World: "Hurrah for Carnegie and your country!

Washington, Dec. 15-Tho govern ment's attack on the so-called elec trical trust will begin oeforo Now Year's Da^ unless present plana aro changed. On a certain date, being kept secret, between now and the beginning of 1911, a bill in equity ngalnst ono section of tho alleged combino will bo filed in some United States Court east of tho Mississippi river. Thou will bogia what the de partment of Justice considers the mammoth "trust busting'.' suit of its history, and ono which Involves a test of tho Sherman law never brought before. The government's case will depend largely upon tho In terpretation of tho patont laws. Ono of the government's prosecu tors declares that when the action ls instituted lt will bo recognized as far eclipsing tho Standard Oil case in magnitude and Importance,and ono conservative estimate ls that lt will cost tho government no ICSB than $1, 000,000 to prosecute to an end. This latter fact is said to be the answer of the department of justice to criti cisms of delay. Tho attorney general has boon unwilling to Involve the government lu that great expense without the fullest inf >rmation of Hie government's chances of proving what lt will allege. lt ls said that the department of justice has abandonad any idea of at tacking tho alleged combine as a wliolo and Intends to ilgnt tho so called trust in sections. The bill soon to be filed will be against one of the 18 or 20 divisions of tho alleged combine which InvostL gators of the department of justice report having found doing business under a general bead. All commodities in Hie use of elec tricity have been divided into groups, the investigators say, and all of them aro controlled hy a central organiza tion. Incandescent lights are said to he controlled by one Toup, copper wire by another, street car motors by an other, transforming machinery by still another, and so on down the list of electrical appliances. The government win nie its iirst suit against one of these sections and follow it up by actions against the others as fas as investigation^ aro completed. y tt'ttMln Cooper lo Wed. i , y LouisvllV %B,,>? a?)'c. 16.-The mar riage of Uobiii Cooper, the slayer of B.

"As to practical methods of em ploying tho largo sum donated I would not vonture to suggest. The man who could have such a splendid idea will certainly know how to ap ply it.

Tho first trackless trolley in Amer ica has just been opened In Wood orland Point, Lookout Mountain, near Los Angeles, Cal. This line is being operated through the entire length of Laurel Canyon, beginning at a junction with the Los Angelos Paciflc Electric Road and ending at the Inn at the head of the canyon. The trackless trolleys look more Uko two large autos. No tracks have been laid, but the cars are propelled by electricity, secured through flex ible trolleys running on overhead wires in any city. The flexible trol ley gives the cars a leadway of thirty feet, ample room for passing any vehicles, autos or teams that may be met en route. Two cars have been Installed so far with a scating capac ity of about thirty each. Two lines of wires have been strung and the current will be grounded, doing away with the return of the current through tho rails, as In a regular trolley system. A club house, which ls located at Wooderland Point, Lookout Moun tain, 1,400 feet above the sea level, has been completed and will serve as a stopping place until the large hotel, now In course of construction, ls completed.

Uesldes depredations on newly Bown seed, the animals attack the growing corn when in the milk stage. They climb the upright stalks and often strip the cob clean of grain. A far mer living near Grand River, Iowa, relates the following experience: "We had about 2,000 bushels of corn In three cribs, to which rats ran and they ate and destroyed one fourth of lt. Much of It was too un wholesome to put through tho grinder until lt had been cleaned ear at a time. All tho time we were poisoning and trapping them. Wo killed as high as 300 rats in two days and could hardly miss them. They destroyed moro than enough corn to pay taxes on 400 acres of land." One man reports an Instance In which rats destroyed three fourths of tho crop on thirteen acres. A large portion of tho crop grown on tho Potomac flats, near Washington, was destroyed by rats. fOLETTSKOMY^XAR Curoo Ooldsi Prevents Pneumonia About one in ten letters passing through the Russian post ofllce is opened on general principles.
