LONDON, Sept. 20.-The news of President Gar
fields death reached London at 8 o'clock in the
morning and published in the later editions of
the morning papers. Though not unexpected. it
created profound sorrow. The death of an English
Prince could not have called forth expressions of
deeper sympathy 1t has been the single tonic of
to-day's conversation. All felt the National
caianity This is not only a testimony to
the personal virtues of President Garfield, but
shows the strength of the friendship existing be-
tween the two Nations. Everybody hopes that no
break OF policy may occur. Many fear that Pres-
dent ArthuTs advent will be prejudcial to harmony
in the Cabinet President Arthurs bearing so far is
commended, but the influence of others is most
feared.
The message Of the Royal family and the Queens
kilograms all through the illness were eagerly
watched. The message directed to Mrs. Garfield is
an illustration of Her Maiesty's womanly feeling
1t truly expresses the popular sentiment and
touches all hearts. The London evening papers
contained kilograms from all parts of the three

How the Esqu ,maux Hunt Ducks.

A most novel and interesting method
of ~bird-catching is practiced during the
spring and early summer, while the
ducks and geese are noting and una
bic to fiy. The Esquimaux puts his
kyack-that is, his seal-skin canoe-on
his head. like an immense hat. and re-
pairs to the biz lake. or the seaside.
where he has seen the helpless birds
swimming and feeding in the wafer.
Here he launches his frail bark. and,
when seated, which is not always ac-
compliShed without a ducking. takes
his double -bladed oar in his hands. and
at once starts in pursuit of the game.
Before him. on his kEact. where he can
seize il ut the proper moment. lies his
duck-spear. together with other imple-
ments of the chase. Cautiously APP
preaching the feathcr.eSs flock. he
sometimes gets quite near before his
re>ence is observed, but even then,
before he is within striking distance.
there is a great spluttering in the wa
ter, as the band scatters in every direc-
ton. vainly beating the water with the
curious-lOoking stumps that soon will
wear their plumage and once more do
duty as wings. Some dive below the
surface and come up a great way of.
and always Just where YOU are not
looking for them; but as the flock takes
alarm, the hunter dashes forward. feel
ing the necessity for speed rather than
for caution. He is soon within fifteen
or twenty feet of the struggling mass,

with three Darbs OF unequal length, he
poises it for = moment in the air. and
then hurts il with unerriug aim a. the
devoted bird, impaling il with a sharp
ened iron or bone spikein the center
of the barbs. The handle of the spear
is of wood. and fioats on the surface
of the water. so that the hunter can re-
cover his weapon and the game 1t MS

A Few Words to the Boys.

Don't trouble yourselves about the
details Of your business. Leave small
things TO small minds. You were
born to be at the top. and Of course a
way will be provided for getting you
there.
II you would make your mark in the
world. never learn to write.
DO you wish to be men? Learn to
chew, smoke and drink. 1t will be
hard to distinguish you from the real
article.
1t is well for you TO know that the
girls are all dying for you. You can
not but pity them, but then il is not
your fault. This should teach you
resignation.
Strive to get all the leisure time you
can. Ii will make oder and buster
persons envy you.
Speak YOUR mind freely. 1t shows
| that YOU possess such an article.
Characterize as nonsense everything
that YOU cannot understand. You will
ind 4 great deal of nonsense in the
! world.
When you have ~anythingto do. don't
hurry about doing it. Take your W
time, or YOUR employer $. which is the
iame thing. II he discharge you, you
~ II have the satisfaction Of knowing
that he will be the loser by not having
yonr valuable services.
Shun those who are able to teach you
ANYTHING in life or business. II is not
agreeable 10 be OF ershadowed BY any
body. Beside. who wants 10 be in
school all his life?
Be above p~oliteness. That will do
well enough for women and children;
but n a Won know, should DIES Use all
such foolishness.
People who talk about sticking to
pr ntiplc are humbugs or ninnics.
Never mind principle where moneyisto
be made.
Never stop to consider. Make up
your mind at once 1t shows prompti-
tude of decision.
Having once made UP your mind.
stick TO your decision. People NAV
call you an obstinate mule, but words
harm nobody. If you are ~pig-headed.
others may suffer. but YOU never.
Stand up for your rights, especially
among INT and timid folk. You
may yield n point where the other
party is stronger than you are.
Fight lifc's battles in the easiest way.
Remember that it is the suffer. and
not the soldier, who makes money out
of war.
Honor your father and your mother
by showing to them how much wiser
you are than they. You can DO this in
no easier way than by. rejecting all
their counsel and admonition.
Don't go to church, if you a avoid
it; but if you must go. take care to
show your intelligent contempt for the
worship and the worShipers.
Follow these few directions, boys,
and YOU will at least attain a high place
in the world. 1t may be the gallows,
but it will be a high place nevertheless.
