Tho statement follows: "The anti-Injunction plank of the j Republican platform as Anally adopt ed is a transparent fraud. It is pos- ' . sible that the members of the com- , j mlttee wore buncoed by some trust! lawyer?that is the only charitable view that can he taken of it. Those | who advocated (he plank claimed to he doing it as a concession to the wage earners, and yet it one will read the plank he will see that It is, in fact, an announcement that the ; Republican party is unalterably opposed to the laboring man's position. ; The plank reads as follows: " 'The Republican party will np, hold at all times the authority and integrity of the courts. State and federal, and -will ever insist that their power to enforce their processes and to protect life, liberty and property shall bo preserved inviolate. We believe, however, that the rules of procedure in federal courts with re speet to the issuance of a writ of injunction should he more accurately defined by the statute; that no injunction or temporary restraining order should be issued without notice, except where irreparable in jury would result. from delay, In 1 which case a speedy hearing there- ( after should be granted. 1 "It will be seen the plank begins 1 with an unnecessary eulogy of the 1 courts. Nobody is opposed to up- ' holding at all tiineR the authority 1 and integrity of the courts. Nobody is objection to the enforcement of their processes or of their exercise ? of their powers to protect life, liberty and property. The plank assumes ] that somebody is attacking the courts and that the courts are in danger of losing support or of having their pow- ] ers weakened. There is no attack upon the courts and there is no thought anywhere of interfering with any legitimate function of the court.

Howard, chief entomollglst of the department, is in charge of the llypnper corps. He takes the census by posting sheets of sticky flypaper In public places, such as meat stalls, stores and dalres. Kvery IS hours the shee.ts are collected and the flies counted. Ifeing able f<> ascertain how long the files have been dead, it in easy for the scientists to determine the periods during which they have been most prolific in their particular localities. The abundance of tiles in certain localities forms the basis of comparison with statistics furnished by the Health department on theprovalence >f typhoid fever in those localities. The experts hope soon to have data showing the responsibility of the house fly for this dreaded summer disease. The greatest number of Hies "enumerated" in any one period is 2,600, at the United States arsenal, the engineer post of the army, on the Potomac river, and near a big jewor. - * Most Destructive Kneniy. It is estimated that the rat does $50,000,000 worth of damage a year in Knglnnd, and tin figures ire much greater for this country. In fart, the rat may lie classed as he farmer's most destructive enemy. In a slaughter--house near Paris, rats in a single night picked to the. hone he carcasses of thirty-live horses, rhere is very little they will not eat.

After seeing a balloon descending Walpole itmuses himself by meditating on the future of what he calls "airgonation." lie sees the art of (lying perfected ami deposing that of navigation. Flourishing seaports become "deserted villages," wliile Salisbury plain, Newmarket lion til and the downs become dockyards for aerial vessels. Public roads, becoming useless, are broken up and t^ins make a great Increase In the area available for tillage. Walpole's prophecies may yet he fulfilled. ? London Globe. BUSINESS SUCCESS. Don't Trv to Be a General ?nrl a Pri. vato at the Same Time. When you are so burieil in the <letail of yot.r business Unit you enunot gel a clear, sharp view of your attuirs in all Ihelr relations, you are in danger of failure. No great general ever takes a gun and goes with his soldiers into the thick of the tight, where he would be so stunned by the noises and so blinded by the smoke of battle that lie could not wateh the movements of the enemy, eonl.1 not see where his own troops needed re-enforcements or how to hurl his forces on the weakest place In the enemy's ranks. lie must go where lie can watch every movement of the armies. If you are going to be a general in business, you must keep where you can get a clear view of your affairs and kijow what is going 011 everywhere. While you are buried lit detail your business may be In a dangerous position, from which you could extricate It If you knew the exact situation.

"Meade and Lee were old friends, and Immediately after the surrender Meade called on him. " 'Meade/ said Lee. 'the years are lolling on you too. Your hair Is get ting quite gray.' "'That Is n<>t the work of years, General Lee,' Meade replied. 'You are responsible for my gray hairs.'" GLASS IS PECULIAR. It Haa a Number of Curious and Contradictory Qualities. Glass is one of the most interesting us well as ono of the most peculiar things iu the world. It has curious and contradictory qualities, and many astonishing phenomena are connected with it. Hrittle and breakable as it is, yet it exceeds almost ull other bodies in elasticity. If two glass Irlls are made to strike each other at a given force, the recoil, by virtue of their elasticity, will be nearly equal to their original impetus. Connected with its brittleness are some very slnoqdur facts. Take K hollow sphere with a hole and stop the hole with the linger, bo as to prevent the external and internal air from communicating, and the sphere will fly to pieces by the mere heat of the hand. Vessels made of glass that luivo been suddenly cooled possess the curious property of being able to resist hard blows given to them from without, but will be instantly shivered by a small particle of llini dropped Into their cavities. This property seems to depend upon the comparative thickness of the bottom; the thieUer the bottom Is the more certainty of breakage by this experiment. Some of these vessels, it is stated, have resisted the stroke of a mallet given with sortie lent force to drive a nail Into wood, and heavy bodies, such as musket balls, pieces of iron, bits of wood, jasper, stone, etc.. have been cast Into them from a height of two or three feet without any effect, yet a fragment of flint not larger than a pea dropped from a height of three Inches has made them fly. ^^KThe Majority Arc Right Eyed. s a Ibank; of OONW/ I CAPITA 1/ STOCK TOTAL ASSETS PIKE* ' j I).
