GROUNDS FOR THE CAPITOL Bill For the Enlargement Well on Its Way to Final Passage. Harrlstmrs, I'a., Maivh IS. The change In public sentiment among members of the senate and the house of representatives In favor of the en largement of Capitol Park noted two weeks aco, is much more pronounced at present than it was then. The Fox bill has passed the senate by a vote of 33 to 7. When it comes up In the house, which It probably will this week or next, it is believed that whatever opposition there waa will have disappeared because the members tave come to better realize the neces sity of making the improvement now and because they have learned that the sentiment of the people of the state generally is favorable. Several of the leading daily papers in Philadelphia have taken the trouble to inform themselves of the exact sit uation with the result that they are ail heartily in favor of the Fox bill. In a recent editorial article the Phila delphia Inquirer, the one out-and-out Republican organ among the dallies of Philadelphia, most heartily approved the measure. The Republican Philadelphia Press on Sunday, March 10, in a leading edi torial said, "The present legislature has a unique opportunity to carry out a great public improvement in Harrla burg through the passage of the bill introduced by Senator Fox appropriat ing an adequate sum to develop a park east of the state capltol. There should be no hesitancy on the part of the legislature to secure now what should have been secured two years ago. None of those who are back of the park project either connived at or stood for the enormous expenditure on the capl tol; but they have in season and out of season insisted that the legislature meet the situation created by the new capltol in a progressive manner. And the legislators should realize that such a park as is contemplated is not only a benefit to Harrisburg but to the state at large." In an editorial published Monday, March 11, the Democratic Philadelphia Record said regarding the capltol ex tension bill: "There is hardly a doubt that the house will concur in the ac tion of the senate. The state Is rich and can afford to be liberal, especially if there is money of the taxpayers al ready on hand to cover more' exigent needs." The Philadelphia Public Ledger, In dependent in politics, said in an edi torial article published on Tuesday, March 12: "The extension of Capitol Park, as provided In the bill, which has already passed the senate, is so far from extravagance that it is really a measure of economy. It Is sheer waste to erect a capitol build ing and have It encompassed by squalor and desolation. The land be tween the capltol and the railroad can still be secured at a very moder ate cost, and its addition to the public grounds ought not to be deferred until its occupation by the growing Industry of Harrisburg shall make Its acquisi tion still more urgent and much more expensive. Philadelphia has had many examples of large public improvements of this kind too long deferred, as in the failure to reserve sufficient space around the city hall. The legislature will he greatly at fault if It refuses the present opportunity to make a really great city of that neglected capi tal of Pennsylvania. Harris burg in its situation and surroundings has the making of a most attractive city. The state haa done little or noth ing for It. treating it generally as a mere railway station. The present project Is not for the benefit of the residents alone, though It will be a direct help and encouragement to them in their own civic enterprise. It is rather a duty to Pennsylvania. The present legislature probably cannot re cover the money spent on the new capltol. but it can do much to com pensate for the excessive expenditure by providing such surroundings for the building as will make It In the time to come a delight and pride to the whole state." Not a few doubting legislators were convinced of the propriety of voting for Senator Fox's bill by an illustrated lecture given by J. Horace McFarland In the hall of the house of representa tives last Wednesday night. By means of more than 100 lantern slides Mr. McFarland showed how the apttol at Washington and the capltola of various states in the Union are sur rounded by beautiful grounds, afford ing fine views of those great struc tures. He also showed the squalid and unattractive condition of the section lying immediately back of Pennsylva nia's new state capltol which it is pro posed to take and clear off. Mr. McFarland further showed how the city of Harrisburg proposes to give for this great Improvement streets of the city amounting to more than nine acres of land, or more than one-third of all that It Is proposed to utilize for the enlargement of the park. He also showed how within the last five years Harrisburg and Its citizens have spent many million dollars to im prove the city, In building a modern sewer system, providing pure water, many hundreds of acres of fine parks and 40 miles of well-paved, clean streets, of which the legislators, state officials and employes who spend the whole or a portion of the year here have the same use as the citizens of Harrisburg, the same use as though the state had helped to pay for these great Improvements, which It has not My arm was eoyered with tweuty our running Bores and swollen to twice Its natural size, San-Cura Ointment re moved the pain, drew out tbe poison and healed the arm in an incredibly short time.

In Hungary they do not eat fresh tread. Whether It Is because the Hun garians believe In hygiene more than their American or European .brothers and sisters or not has never lieeu told, but the Magyar Is partial to stale bread, and the staler the better. Ills "rozskenyer," or ordiuury black bread, ns it Is eaten by the very large ma jority of the Magyar population, is carefully laid away on a shelf and dug out for consumption mouths and months after It bus come out of the great ovens. If the huge loaf, weigh ing something like Ave pounds and for which the Hungarian pnys 0 or 7 krentwr, equivalent to about 3 or 4 cents lit A morion u mouey, has careful ly been hidden away for two years. It U considered all the better. The Hun garian never thinks of where the bread Is to come from tomorrow, lie tliiuks of where It Is to come from next year, for he has nt least a year's supply on the shelves. The Hunga rian bakes her bread 3115 day ahead of time. Her Wednesday baking Is for the Weilnesdny of a year to come; her Thursday baking for the Thursday of a year to come. To Cat the Muht In Two. Professor Victor Hallopeim, member of the Paris Academy of Medicine, says: The true secret of loug continued, valuable brain work Is to cut the night In two. The scholar, the Inventor, the tl minder, the literary creator, should be asleep every night by 10 o'clock, ta wake again at, say, 2 In the niorniug. Throe hours' work, from 2 to 0, in the absolute tranquillity of the silent hours should mean the revealing of now pow ers, new possibilities, a wealth of Ideas undreamed of under the prevailing sys tem. From 5 to S or 8:30 sleep ngaln. Tak ing up then the day's work, the brala will be still saturated with the mental fruits of the midnight vigil; there will be no effort In putting Into practice or carrying further what was planned or begun those few hours before. The habit may be hard to acquire, but mechanical means of waking at first will Induce the predisposition. New York World. The Military Denth Sentence. "You know how a soldier traitor Is put to death." said the colonel. "The traitor stands blindfolded, and half a dozen privates shoot nt him simul taneously. Rut perhaps you don't know tlmt each of those privates, though he take the most careful aim. may afterward say without fear of contradiction that the traitor's blood does not stain his hands. This is the reason: Two of the dries for this ghast ly shooting are always loaded with blank cartridges. Then they nre shuf fled, and no one knows which the harmless ones are. The executioners draw, and enoh Is us like ns not to draw a harmless gun. So when they shoot they can solace themselves with the thought that maybe they are only shooting a blank cartridge nt the poor blindfolded wretch before them." Ttic S.it.im til t'okunnket. The sachem of l'oknmikcr, known in the lilsto'-y of New F.uglaud ns King Philip, was the youngest son of Chief Massasoit. His Indian name was I'o nietaooiii. but his father was friendly to the lCuglisb colonists, who gave him tlio mime of Philip. His warfare upon the si'CKts some fifty years after the first Inmiing of the pilgrims at Plym outh rock harassed them greatly, but Philip was at last killed at New Hope, mid the war thus ended. Tbe title of kius corresponded bettor with his Eng lish name tuuu the Indian title of snelieni would have done. DnnlNh KnKiLli.
