There is much to be said on both sides,
and we do not desire to take any part in the
quarrel. Judge Hilton seems we'll able to
stand up in his own justification, and the
ladies who are offended with some Of the
reasons given by him for the failure OF the
Women's Hotel experiment are not likely to
be easily silcnced. We only desire to call
attention to the fact that Mrs. Harriet
N. Moves, OF Boston, writes n letter stating
that the Home fer Working Women in that
city has restrictions and regulations similar
to those In operation at the Stewart Women's
Hotel, and that where they differ those
ut the Boston Home are more strict.
No visitors ut oil are allowed on
Sundays until evening, and the boarders
are required to obtain an excuse from the
superintendent if they fail TO attend
church. The charge for single boarders is
five dollars and n half per week. At the
Womcn's Hotel the charge was six dollars
per week. and certainly New York living at
that price is much cheaper than Boston liv-
ing ut fifty cents u week less. The homes
of the Ladies' Christian Union Of this city
are governed by rules moro stringent
than those Of the Women's Hotel.
Hence we can see no justice in the
complaints of undue severity made against
Judge Hiltons management Of the Women's
Hotel. 1t is natural enough that young
ladies should like the company Of the oppo-
site sex, and that when their beaux are
with them they should prefer to have the
reception room door closed, especially
il other attractive ladies are passing
up and down stairs. 1t is a pity
that what might have beon IN excel
lent and useful charity should have
failed, and we believe the failure was
mainly due to the false impression enter
tanned rs to the object and extent Of the be-
ncvolent design. At the same time we dis
claim being the champion Of Judge Hilton
any more than Of that extraordinary female
boarier who persisted in taking of her shoes
in the library and olevating her feet on the

Until this ignoble prejudice is overcome
Mexico will never be able to develop her
magnificent natural resources. Nature,
which has been 80 bountiful to her in other
respects, has withheld natural and easy
means of communication. She is a great,
rich country. without navigable rivers. It
is only by system of railways that she
can ever avail herself OF her marvellous
natural resources and she lacks both the
capital and the enterprise to build such
roads herself The industry and finances
of that splendid country will continue to
stagnate until she consents to make it for
the interest of American capital to furnish
her with means Of communication. The
first great step, which will lead to all the
others, is an international railway, as a
great connecting artery with the throbbing
business activity OF her live and progressive
neighbor. Such road, once built. will lead
to great network Of branches as tribu-
taries to feed it's business, and all Mexico
will grad ually be supplied with the facilities
OF modern commercial life. The indispen-
sable requisite OF Mexican prosperity is
moro liberal tone Of feeling toward the
United States.

has no wish or purpose to depose Mr.. Hayes
and that he will DO no party to such an

Tricks of Drivers.

Il was more common years ago than
recently for landlords and stagc-drivers
to have an understanding with each
other, whereby, for a consideration
paid the driver, hungry travellers were
scarcely allowed time to comfortably
seat themselves at the table, when the
driver wOnld announce the Immediate
departure of the stage, thus cheating
people out of a meal who paid for one.
remember being one of a stage load
of hungry travellers crossing the Sierra
Nevada before railroads had spanned it,
when a noted judge, still on the bench,
and an equally noted professor of an
eastern college, were of the party.
Our arrival at a dinner station was
hailed with delight by all the party.
and we filed into the dining-room to at
tack the savory viands, the landlord,
however, first taking care to collect the
fee for the meal from each of us. We
had certainly not been five minutes at
the table, and some of us, i'm waiting
to be helped to coffee, had not tasted a
mouthful of food, when our driver
shouted:
"All aboard; I'm behind time and
can't wait a minute longer"
A look of mingled CONSERVATION and
disgust spread from face to face, as we
sprang from the table, but the judge re-
mained cool, as he touched the profess
sor on the arm.
''Will you see to the bread supply, if
| take care of the meat? he queried.
The professor caught at his purpose
and promptly assented. In another
instant the judge had conveyed large
turkey and a couple ofspring chickens,
ready carved, from their piatters to two
napkins, while the professor emptied
the contents of the bread plates into
another, and, led by the judge, they
marched triumphantly to the coach.
Their example was contagious; each
of the passengers hastily confiscated
some article of food-meats, vegetables
even pastry-until the dining-room was
pretty thoroughly stripped of every
thing that went 10 make up the con-
comitants Of good meal, and the in
terror of the coach bore the appearance,
L imagine, of Sherman's raid, while
the bewildered and amazed look of the
face of the speechless landlord, as We
drove of, would have proven a price,
study to an artist. The roars of laugh
ter it caused us proved good condi-
ment to our strangely improvised meal.

WRECKS.

Where the daucipg waves were singing
A song 30 sweet and so full OF glee,

The wild billoEs flashed in the fair sunlight;
Their heads to heaven were lifting.
While out on the tide.
With no hand to guide.
A wreck was helplessly drifting
spsrs OF the wreck the waves brought to my
feet,
Laughed in my face and retreated'
The mocking echo my ears did greet,
Which the rocks and winds repeated
Well did they know that the wreck was my
own

To the billowy blue,
Who promised 50 true.
To bring back nothing Of sadness.
But somewhere. knew, in the cruel deep,
Nv fond, precious hopes were lying

And left them in mockery cry ne.

How Herring Fisheries ars Conducted.

Three methods of catching herring
are recognised in the waters of the Pas
samaquoddy. OF these, the "driving"
method entails the least expense, but,
as the fish caught in this way are not
always of the first quality, and as they
will not always ''dr,ve," this plan is
not extensively adopted. To take her
ring in this way it is only necessary to
procure row boat, dip net, and torches.
By placing a light, torch in the bow of
the boat and rowing briskly over the
water to be fshed, the herring will
generally collect about the boat in
numbers sufficient to admit of dipping.
Another of these methods is fishing
with nets. The nets are, by means of
anchors and buoys, stretched in the
water chosen for fishing. Good judge
ment and thorough acquaintance with
the surroundings are required, in order
to set the net at proper depth. The
meshes Of these nets are so formed as to
admit only the head of fair-sized her
ring-all the small-sized ones pass
through without being strangled. The
gills of the fish assist in preventing dis
engagement. The fish, not seeing the
trap set for them, swim in and are
caught. The third, and perhaps most
important of these plans, is weir fish
ing. This requires considerable capital
and good privilege on which to build
the weir. This weir is constructed of
hardwood spiles and brush; the former
being driven into the ground of some
tideway, and the latter woven through
them. The weir must have a situation
near the entrance of some harbor, and
allow boat to float in it at low water.
The fish enter at a small passage left for
that purpose, at or near high water,
and when the tide is out they are
seined.
Great qualities Of herring are some-
times taken at one tide. Fifty hogs
heads have been seined at .'Dinner
Islands" and "Bean's Island Passage
weirs quite often lately. Others have
done nearly as well. Dinner Island
weir, owned by James NJ. Lord, has
yielded larger quantities this season
than any in this vicinity. Beside the
large amount delivered at sardine fac
tories in Eastport, Mr. Lord has, from
herriDgs, manufactured at his factory
about eighty tons of pumice and twenty
two hundred gallons of oil. He has
now stored, for future use in his pumice
factory, some one hundred and fifty
hogsheads of these herring. The pumice
sells from nine dollars to ten dollars per
Ton, and is in good demand. AS fer
tilizer it is allowed to be second to none.
The oil, which is used for various pur-
poses, is worth thirty cents per gallon.
The herring have been so poor that not
more than third of the usual amount
of oil has been obtained. AS the netted
herring are generally large, they are,
when frozen, shipped to western ports
and in good demand.

The Laboratory of the System.

The stomach is the laboratory OF the system.
in which certain mysterious processes are
constantly going on These result in the pro-
duction Of that wonderful vivifylng agent the

with the elements of vitality to the remotest
parts of the system But when the stomach 10
semi-paralyzed by dyspepsia, ood mAnufac-
ture is carried on imperfectly, the circulation
grows thin and sluggish. and the system suf-
fers in consequence. Moreover, indigestion
reacts upon the liver and bowels, rendering
the first sluggish and the lattr conztipated.
The brain also suffers by sympathy, and sick
headaches, sleeplessne-s and nervous symP-

A man came into Virginia, Nevada,
recently and announced that his name
was Sandy Stiggins, from Ploche. He
was six feet high, had a revolver
strapped to his hip, and carried for
midable looking rifle. After introduc-
ing himself he inquired wher the Justice
Mine could be found.
"You see, I've walked all the way
from Ploche to git sit as a fl ighter, and
if ] can't fill the bill there amt no man
in Nevada that can"
He was informed that the chances of
getting a job as fighter at the Justice
were rather slim, as the Miners Union
had discharged the entire gang of both
miners. This information seemed to
strike him like the news of the sudden
death of bosom friend.
"You don't mean to say that they
amt goin' to fight? You don't tell me
that they have drawed of? If they
have it's mighty rough on a man that's
walked all the way from Ploche to take
a hand"
"You might not have got a job even
if they did fight" suggested reporter.
"What, Sandy Stiggins not got job
as fighter? The minute they'd hear
my name mentioned they'd begin

Just then Fleabite, small cur recog-
