The evil effects Of Tannerism remain,
although the doctor himself has gone to
England. The recent death Of a maiden
lady at Lodi, Bergen county, N. j., re-
calls the eminent starver. The lady,
who was SO years old at the time of her
death, had been fasting for seven weeks,
at the end of which she died. Because
the irrepressible doctor came out of his
experiment all right it does not follow
that others can do the same thing, but
the fate Of this New Jersey lady should
warn others who contemplate making
Tanners Of themselves.

The Army and the militia.

Washington, I2.-Adjutant General
Drum, in his annual report says: Ny
earnest wish is to still more assimilste
the rules and forms governing both the
regular army and the militia. 1t needs
no special argument to demonstrate the
manifold advantages that would neees-
sarily flow from perfect uniformly

the internal economy of q company, regi-
ment or brigade, the same forms for re-
turns, acquisitions, reports, ETC., governed
in their annual encsmpments precisely in
the manner as a military camp in the

Der of the State GusTd would be qualified
for q commission in the volunteers. I'm
der this plan in actual need 100000 men,
so differed, could be sdded to the regular
army. The general recommends
that on the application Of the
adjutant general of state he
be authorized to issue in moderate
quantities such blanks and forms as may
be indicated as desirable for the use of
state troops, especially during the sum-
mer encampment. Upon .he subject of
military education the general says: ]
do not think the importance of the early
and partial Introduction OF the youth OF
the country to military studies snd
habits can be overestimsted. The course
of instruction does not interfere with
scholastic curriculum, nor prevent them
from entering the life for which they are
preparing themselves 1t. however,
leads them to affiliate in after life with
the militia of their respective states and
enhancing their value as members OF
such organizations, increases measuresbly
the capacity of the states national guards
to furnish trained officers TO the country
in It's hour of need.

south side of Ford Pit. st Stellarton. All
the miners were st work in different
borders. The explosion was so terrible
as to sweep across 70 the other side ofthe

| reach. Almost all the men on the north
side will be saved, while ali at work on
the south side have been lost. At least
sixty are missing. Five men have been
brought up and are likely TO recover
Probably forty are shut up within fallen
coal in the south side The accident was
presumably caused by some miner firing
shot in 3 forbidden part Of the work
ings.
The disaster occurred in Ford Pit, AL
bion Mines. All who have come up are
likely TO live. A working party Is down.
There is not much hope for the safety Of

Texas Sugar Lands.

Within q zone or belt of eighty miles
in width, skirting the gulf of Mexico,
from Oyster creek, near Galveston. to
the Rio Grande. there is, it is calculated,
at least 100000 acres OF sugar lands
that will mature five feet of cane sugar
each year, yielding in many instances
an average of two and half hogs heads
of sugar and four barrels OF molasses to
the acre. II one-half this acreage were
cultivated, and should yield only one
hogshead of sugar and two barrels OF
molasses to the acre, it would amount TO
the enormous sum of 3 600, 900 hOgsheads
of sugar and lS9 600, 600 gallons of mo-
lasses, or two and one-half times the
amount of sugar and three and seven
eighths times the quantity OF molasses
consumed in the United States during
the year of 1876. These lands lie ia
beautiful plateaus from ten TO forty feet
above the ordinary stage OF water in tn
streams that pass through them, and
are not, as reported by some, low and
marshy. The malarial diseases in this
district, according to the statistical atlas
of the census of 1870, averages only four
per cent. of the deaths from all causes,
while in Washington and vicinity the
average of malarial diseases is seven and
one-half per cent. There is no satlsiae-
tory reason why the United States should
have a balance of trade against them on
sugar and molasses alone OF S62, ,OOO,OUO

He came, and the forgiveness was ac-

lie came, and the forgiveness was ac-
ceded.
He had recently met Sir Spencer
Baker, and his wife, long since recon-
ciled to the family, and found that bis
mother had not influenced the girl in the
least, but that she had acted on the i'm
pulse of the moment, and under the
guidance of her simple and devoted
affections.
She had come to call on Lady Merton
tearfully to rescind her determination
after exacting promise of secrecy, and
then she left to meet her lover. Sir
Richard, we have said, came home on
Christmas eve, and all was happy.
He was sufficiently well to dine with
the family on New Years day. At the
dinner were present Sir Arthur Lech-
mere, his lady, Sir Spencer and Lady
Baker.
They were the best of friends, and be-
fore many months the eldest son of the
runaway lovers was affianced to Lucy.
And so ended Richard Merton's very
foolish revenge.

Points on Pins.

A lover of statistics has Just made an
interesting calculation of the number OF
pins made daily. Birmingham holds the
first rank, turning out 100000 every
day; London and Dublin, 1900, 600; (;
or for Great Britain and ireland, 50,-
100000. France produces 10000, 900 /;
Holland and Germany about 10000, 900
each. For all Europe, $4,000, 600 daily
must be about the number manufac-
tured. This would make 29,200,0OO 900
yearly, product representing in value
81, 300. 600. In the United States we
make over $1,000 of pins daily, or
over l9, 900, 10000 year, which makes
468 for every inhabitant Fifty years
ago man could make fourteen pins a
minute, to-day lie can make $4,000 a
minute, thanks to improved machinery.
But despite this enormous production,
and though pins never break and rarely
wear out, we are constantly hearing the
question, "Can you lend me pinW and
how very often it happens that not pin
can be found in a party of n halt dozen
or more. Pins disappear, then, almost
wholly by being lost-lost ut the rate oI
l3I 900, coo daily Estimating the entire
population OF the globe at 1000, 900 600
each person, man, woman and child
loses less than one pin day-ln tho
United States somewhat more than one
pin day for each innabitant. But as
more than one-halt the population con-
sists of children or savages who use very
| few or no pins, we may set down thu
loss for each adult at about two and ;

rather economical in the matter OF pins
and where the pins go to is not so grea
"a mystery as many suppose.

Autumn Tokens.

BY the golden drel,niul weather
BY tho birds that ny together,
Dark against the radiant sky,
BY the silence growing deeper,
BY the resting OF the reaper,
Pleasant days are drawing nigh.
By the vagrant wayside brier,
FlingingAar its tangled fire,
BY the forests motley line,
Royal oak and maple splendid,
Holding stately court attended
AS for pageant rich and fine,
BY the asters, incense bringing,
By the morning-glories' swinging,
Aud the spicy fragrance shed
From the grape, whose purple cluster
Captive holds the vivid luster
Ol the summer scarcely fed.
Pleasant days are coming nearer,
Days WHOM home viii seem the dearer
That its circle, smaller grown,
\ In its happy talk and laughter,
Or its sighs, low stealing after,
Narrows TO inlold its own.
Blithe, Tor music, work and study
Then will glow the hearth-fame ruddy,
What though wild the winds may blow
Always there is golden weather
Where true hearts are met together,
Though without be storm and snow.

Ripened hues, and gentle fading,

Speak to us with sign and token,
SsYin words we hear, unspoken,

ity over their poorer neighbors. The minority
which forced an overwhelming majority into what
the victims themselves termed "the rich mans war
