Mr.. Jay Cooke, who still takes
warm interest III the affairs OF the North
Pacific railroad, says that there will be
no effort on the part of thatcomranY to
secure aid from Congress by joining
hands with Col. Thomas Scott's Texas
Pacific project. It appears that Col.
Scott is confident of his ability TO push
the scheme through on its own merits,
and that the Northern Pacific managers,
while not opposing it, are not seeking
an alliance. Mr.. Cooke is just as cont I
dent as ever OF the future success of the
railroad which swallowed up bis great
fortune and brought him to bankruptcy.
He says it now occupies the proudest
position of any road in the country, be-
ing entirely Tree from debt, its bonds
having all heen converted into preferred
stock, botll ends of the road earn a
monthly surplus over running expenses
which amount to about $65, 900.
The value of the company's land
grant, Mr.. Cooke says, is far greater
than even the directors themselve inn
agine. The completion vt the last ~ Y
miles of track in Dakota gave the COM
paDy 200, 900 acres more than are con-
tanned III the whole State OF Massachn-
setts. The reservation of the alternate
sections belonging to the government
| for actual settlers, III tracts of so acres
or 100 to soldiers, enables the company
to virtually offer the settler who buys
farm of it another farm adjoining as q
free gift. The settler who buys 80 acres
from the company has only to build a
house on the adjoining 80 acres to own
| the whole 160. If he was soldier he
gets 800 acres by the same process. Mr.
Cooke argues that the strict provisions
of law to prevent speculators getting
possession Of any land within the limit
Of the grant will eventually result iii
thickly populating the region through
which the Northern Pacific runs, and as
a consequence, will produce large local
business for the road. The friends OF
Mr.. Cooke will be glad to learn that he
is in excellent health and spirits.-N

seven children and granddaughter by
pushing needles into their bodies. She
had ten children, seven Of whom died
under twelve months old, but it was not
until the death of her granddaughter
that an investigation was made Her
apparent motive for this last crime was
that the child might die before IDS fa-
ther, who was III desperate condition,
and that~she might thus secure part of
his property, TO the prejudice of her
daughter-il-law, whom she detested !,
When asked how she came to think OF

kept there was one day q conversation

COLUMBUS ANIIcIPATED.-The fcier.
fists are still laboring to rob Christopher
Columbus OF his laurels. The theory
that America was discovered by the
Chinese many hundreds of years ago has
lately been freshly elaborated by NJ. d.
Hervey de st. Dennis, before the French
Acadamy of Inscriptions and Bellies let
ters. The annals of China prove that
Buddhist missionaries came over in the
fifth century and started a revival in the
heart of the American continent but
Nj. d' Hervey de saint Dennis is OF the
opinion that the actual discovery took
place as early as the third century before.
the Christian era. He has unearthed
some Chinese documents, which treat
more fully of ssFu sang'' or the land be-
yond the great ocean, and has no doubt
that the Chinese knew all about the
land of the free and the home of the
brave before Christ was born. The Chi
nese give the continent which lies be-
tween the Pacific on one.side and tsthe
immense blue sea" on tie other, width
of a /, 900 leagues, which agrees with the
distance between the Pacific and the
Atlantic on the parallel of San Francis.
co. The information given of popnla-
tions of 'Eu-sanga agrees with what we
know of the ancient Peruvians but as
the Peruvian civilization had been estab-
lished where Pizarro found it not much
more than three or four hundred years,
it IS probable that the Chinese naviga-
tors encountered the race which occupied
the great cities now ruined, which for.
merly covered the valleys Of Arizona and
New Mexico. 1t is possible that some
valuable information relating to the
former occupants Of our Continent-the'
