" Raise Wheat I"

"Let's see, they raise some wheat
in Minnesota, don't they?" asked a
Schoharie granger of Michigander.
"Raise wheat Who raise wheat
No, sir; decidedly no, sir. 1t raises
itself. Why, If we undertook to
cultivate wheat in that State it would
run us out. There wouldn't be any
place to put our house."
"But I've been told that grass
hoppers take a good deal Of it."
"Of course they do. If they
didn't / don't know what we would
do. The cussed stuff would run all
over the State and drive US out
choke us up. These grasshoppers
are a God-send, only there amt half
enough of them"
T" Is that wheat nice and plump"
"Plump! Why, l don't know
what you call plump wheat, but
there are seventeen in our family,
including ten servants, and when we
want bread we just 60 out and fetch
in kernel of wheat and bake it,"
"Do You ever soak it in water
first?"
ooh, no; that wouldn't do. 1t
would swell little and then we
couldn't get it in our range oven."

Astonished

Astonished.
HOLSTERS are getting scarce and
high, 1t is said, along the New
England coast. Those persons who
like them and want them cheap had
better go to Halifax. A letter from
Halifax to London editor says
that lobsters are SO cheap and plenti-
full that they may be purchased for
a cent a piece.
An Irish officer, being unaware Of
this fact, and thinking that they
were in all probability two and six
pence or three shillings each--as in
his own extortionate country-gave
his sergeant sovereign and babe
him order the worth of it in Holsters,
as he had some friends coming to
take supper with him that evening.
Judge Of his surprise when, on
arriving at his lodging, he found a
CARLOAD of the delicate crustacea
awaiting him.
=" Why, what is the meaning of
this?" he asked in surprise.
81 beg pardon, sir; the other cart
will be up presently" said the SER
want.
This is almost as ridiculous as the
ignorant young housewives order to
the fish vender for half a. dozen
halibut.

Too Conscientious for Doctors Bow


A physician ought to be specially
careful in the selection of servant.
This servant should not be dressed in
black, for that would be too suggestive,
but in garments OF neutral tint, the
symbol of uncertainty. He ought not
be the possessor of a cadaverous visage,
lest he give the impression that those
who enter the doctors Office must aban.
don hope. Neither should he be fiord
and rotund, rs though sickness was not
a serious thing. He should occupy the
golden mean between the gay and the
grave. He ought not, moreover, to be
excessively truthful, lest he injure the
practice Of his employer We have
heard OF aservant who was totally unfit
for his position simply because he posi-.
lively could not tell lie. A stranger
VINO had sudden illness at home inquir.
Cd
"Is the doctor in:"
mo, sir" was his quick reply.
Tell me has the doctor a great many
patients?"
The servant became pale, but slowly
and solcmnly Replied
Not many living, SIR"
Then the stranger turned sadly away,
and sought a doctor whose servant had
less resemblance to the Father of his
Country.
The Colonia3S Secretary Of Fiji
estimates that RS 600 of the 1884,
902 population of the islands are
Wesleyans; they have 1908 chapels
and o her places of worship, and the
5000 Roman Catholics fifty-seven.
The Roman Catholics have made
large plans for Central Africa. Ac-
cording to Cardinal Lavigerie, in
the Missions Catalogues of May
18th, the plans agreed upon include
four Provicariats in Equatorial At

NEW YORK, March l2th.-The
Times says: United States Com.
missioner Shields yesterday grant.
ed naturalization papers to Hop
Sing, native of China, who ap-
piled for what are known as first
papers Under the laws Of the
United States Cinnamon cannot be
naturalized. The Act OF 1904 was
amend in 1870 80 that the Re-
vised Statute reads thus: "rhs
provisions Of this title shall apply
TO aliens of African nativity and
to persons Of African descent.n In
1875, when additional amendments
to the naturalization laws we're
under consideration, attention be-
Ing called to the fact that the
statute as it stood would
authorize the naturalization of
Asiatics, the section was
amended 80 as to read: 1.-THE pro.
visions of this title shall apply to
aliens being free white persons,
and aliens of African nativity and
to persons of African descent.n
There are at least two decisions
under this statute adverse to the
applications of natives of China
for naturalization papers. One
was given by United States Cir
cult Judge Sawyer of California in
1878, and one by Judge Choate in
the United States Circuit Court,
New York, In 1879. As . native of
China is not ga free white person.
or "of African nativity or "of
African Descent" it is difficult to
find where Commissions Shields
gets his authority to issue natural
ization papers to such person.

NEW York, March 12.-The 7rs-
bune received by cable last night
the following dispatches: The
Irish feeling Is supposed to be
slightly subdued by Mr.. Forster's
courageous but too concilistory
spec ch at Tullamore. Mr.. Biggar
took pains to dispei this illusion
bymu unusually ferocious attack
on Mr.. Forster. Private accounts
say that n much larger proportion
of rents 10 coming ia in Ireland.
Mr.. Lahouchere was the real au-
thorsof Majoribapks's amendment
to Sir Stalford's Northcote's mo-
ton excluding Bradlaugh from his
seat. 1t WAS an adroit proposal
declaring an cath or affirmation
optional, and was supported by the
Moderatts, the Radicals keeping
silent, and almost carried. 1t il
now admitted that it might have
been carried had the Government
consented TO adjourn the debate.
Mr.. Brsdlaugh's friends say that
his spirited appeal to the people
expresses al actual intention to
continue the controversy outside
the House, and that he will not at
present attempt to enter the Com
mons.
Mr.. LoweIi's letter, declining to
interfere on behalf of Irish A meri-
can prisoners who have besn ar
rested under the Coercion ACT, was
published without his consent or
knowledge. The pu olication was
presumably contrived by the pris-
Oner, to whom the lette was ad-
dressed. and who resented the re-
fusal, with "a view to iDjuring Mr..
Lowell by giving currency to ex-
pressions touching the Coercion
Acts, which, ii published by him,
might be regarded rs undiplomat-
ic. The letter attracts little atten-
ton in England.
The committal of MacLean for
trial for high treason, instead OF a
lesser charge, is due to belief of
the legal authorities in his insani-
ty. The public generally expects
and desires as result OF the trial
the consignment of the prisoner 10
Broadmoor Lunatic Asylum dur
ing her Msjesty's pleasure. 49,
LONDON, March 1.-The Treas
ury Solicitor says MacLean Is
prinau fdcie sane, and that the
magistrate had no authority to in
Quire into the state Of his mind. 1t
appears highly improbable that
the charge of high treason is adj
vanced with view Of obtaining
the death penalty. MacLean
laughed several times ut the evil
dencs given by the Elton College
students. In consequence of Il
threatening letter received by the
Police Inspector who arrested Mac.
Lean at Windsor, the police have
been re-enforcod.
