Bad for the Canada Pacific

London, Ont. Dec. 2s.-At n mass
meeting here yesterday, 1t was resolved
that the proposal made by the govern
ment, and now before parliament, to
expend about sG0, ,000, 900 and to grant
%, 900 900 acres Of choice land, worth,
at the estimate made by the govern
ment last session, $4,000, 900, for the
purpose, rs alleged, Of insuring the
completion Of the Pacific railroad, is
highly inexpedient and calculated TO
prevent the reduction OF taxation,
which Is now excessive.

A chinesc Concert and Lecturer.

Cincinnati, Dec. 2s.-The Chinese
have Sunday school in this city, and
last night gave n peculiar entertain.
ment. There are 80 Cinnamon in the
class, but only - took part in the cele.
bration, owing, no doubt, to this being
wash day.
The event took place in the Reformed
Presbyterian church, on Clinton street,
which was packed to the door by m
interested audience. Chan Pou Tip,
one Of the most intelligent Cinnamon in
Cincinnati, now employed as clerk in a
Pearl street shoe house, made an ad.
dress In English. It covered four pages
Of foolscap, and was upon Chinese
school life and Chinese marriages. His
English Is good, but his grammar Is
defective. He spoke of the habit the
Cinnamon in American cities had, of
going along the street and noticing nc
one, but attending to their own bust.
meas, and said they had been brought
up that way in China. He declared
that the Chinese never associate with
women in their own districts, and do nc
counting; generally the parents made
the match. Chan declared there were
no divorces in China, and marriages
there wore always happy ones. The
speaker referred but three times to his
manuscript and spoke from memory.
Among the attractions offered was
the singing by the class of ''Rock oil
Ages, ,"in Chinese. They also sung the
Tooth psalm in Chinese and then read
1t in English.

THE WEATHER.
An Extreme Cold snap Throughout
the states.
Trouble Threatened al so~esrO. New
Mexico.
Explosion. Mishap-. Etc.

Chicago, Dec. 2S.-The thermome-
ters this morning registered as low as
is degrees below zero in this city, but
the government observation was only
nine below. The weather has moder-
ated only . trifle from the extreme
cold, and at one O'Clock ii was seven
below. 1t is likely that tonight will
be the coolest of the season.
At Milwaukee this morning it was
10 degrees below zero, and at Minneap-
oils 2s below.
Galveston, Dec. 2s.-The Ne,os spe-
cials report heavy snow storms through
out the northern part Of the state.
Richmond, Va, Dec. 2S.-Telegrams
from points along the Chesapeake q
Ohio railroad 10 the Ohio river report
snow at intervals all day, with indica-
tions tonight OF its continuance. The
Thermometer ranged from S to 1so
above.
Bay Side, N. Y, Dec. 2s.-The re-
cent storm was the severest that has
visited'this section for 70 years.
Long Branch, Dec. 26.-Railroad
travel has been resumed ON the differ
ent roads, but the inland towns not
visited by railroads are in a state Of
siege, as only few turnpikes have been
broken. Tho damage to property along
the shore is from sl25, 900 TO $50, 900.
The sea is still very high and has car
ried away some of the ietties at the
highlands which protected the railroad
bed from being washed out.
Chicago. Dec. 2s.-Thc weather ut
midnight justifies the prediction made
earlier, for the thermometer in this city
has reached a point lie below, and will
probably register 90 to 25o below at the
suburban places tonight. The cold
wave is far reaching and the weather is
more intensely cold than for some years.
The Inter Ocean and Tribune specials
give information that the thermometer
throughout northern Illinois, Iowa,
Nebraska, Michigan and Wisconsin has
been from zero TO 309 below all day. At
Oshkosh, Wis, ut 7o'clock this morning
the mercury stood at 30 below, and
was 20o below during the entire day
with prospects of bitter cold night.
No casualties by rail are reported. and
no fatal cases OF freezing.
Fatal Boiler Explosion.
The Tribune's East Saginaw special
says: A boiler in q shingle mill at
Vestaburg. Michigan, exploded this
morning, killing instantly Frank Fill
kins, engineer, and Frank Ainsley,
night watchman, and badly injuring
George Wilcox, NJ. Turk and an un-
known man. The mill was shattered

A PROPHET OF EVIL.
Prognostications OF n Panic Because
OF too Many Pacific Roads.

New York, Dec. 2s.-The Tribune
thinks that financial crisis similar to
that of '73 is impending as result of
railroad speculations. Take for an ex-
ample the several propositions to build
roads across that thousand mile belt,
separating the Mississippi alluvial ba-
sin from the narrow fringe of fer
tile soil and scanty population on the
Pacific slope, besides the original Pa
ciflc road which, after ten years expe-
rience, finds it impossible to get return
loads for its cars, and which is more
than equal to all that can he put on it.
Another is SO nearly completed that
the junction of the eastern and western
portion at the Rio Grande is expected
early in 81.
The census shows the population Of
California to be about $50, 900, and less
than one million for the whole Pacific
watershed. One would suppose that
with free ocean way, the isthmus
route and tw orailroads in operation, all
the traffic would be accommodated to
and from the Pacific.
Madness, born of cheap money, pro-
poses to build at least five more rail-
roads, ono on Mexican, two on Cana
dian territory and two at least on our
own. The Northern Pacific, for which
there may be some excuse in the next
generation, has yet to encounter its
most formidable difficulties, of long
snowy winters in crossing the backbone
ridge of the continent. The 35th par
allel route has even less excuse, rs
there are the same mountain chains,
with scarcely n vestage of population
or anything ON which to support it.
That part which is not mountainous is
either deep ravines or dry desert, and
it is closely ilanked throughout by the
32d parallel or Texas route now ap-
preaching completion. What national
inducement can be found for embarking
in such colossal schemes, unless, rs be-
fore said, it be the facility with which
the projectors can borrow from credu-
lous capitalists money enough to build
the railroads and leave balance to
pocket us profit.

at the age usually attained in college

quires so distinct treatment that coedu-
cation is really disadvantage to both.
Instead Of being in the line OF true pro-
gress, itseems to me truly retrogression."

which, as an educator,I would never be-
come responsible" President Bascom, OF
the Wisconsin University, said: "There

A Change in Men and Manners.

Detroit Free Press. ....y .a.H
When any tobacco,chewer stops to re.
fleet, can't he realize that the fraternal
feeling that once existed between users Of
the weed is gradually but surely fading
out Of sight? Proofs come to the surface
every hour in the day that such is the fact.
Ten years ago, If four or Eve men stood
together on a street-corner and one took
out his tobacco.box 1t would be passed
from hand to hand until 1t had gone,
around. No one sees any such display oil
iraternal feeling nowadays. The one VINO
wants to take chew will open his box IN
his pocket and slyly draw out q pinch and
nretend that he puts cough-drop into his
mouth, or he will stiile his craving for q
0uid until the group breaks up. Many
chewers carry IN empty box, and when
Hnpealed TO by hungry acquaintance
they display the box and yarn of a story
N forgetting to ill it before they left home.
Time was when a chewer didn't think any
excuse necessary, but would simply walk

The way 10 Health. . ~

The only true way to health Is that
which common sense dictates to man.
Live within the bounds of reason. Eat
moderately, drink temporarily, sleep regu-

Some men eat themselves to death, some
drink themselves to death, some wear out
their lives by Incidence, and some BY

the grave under the effects OF vicious prac-
