that pneumonia, bronchitis and diph-
eria decreased in area of prevalence.
At the State Capitol the prevailing
winds, during the week ending June 2,
were west, and, compared with the pre-
ceding week, the temperature was higher,
the absolute humidity and the day and
night ozone more, and the relative
humidity less.
Compared with the average for the
month of May in the preceding six
years, measles was much more preva-
lent, and intermittent fever and con-
sumption were less prevalent during
the month of May, 1888.
For the month of May, 1888, COM
pared with the average of the corre-
spending month for the five years
1S79-S3 the temperature was NEARLY z
deg. T.. lower, the absolute humidity
and the day and night ozone were less
and the relative humidity more.

WEALTH has its conveniences and its
misfortunes, as Jay Gould is just now
keenly feeling. Having possessed him
self of as good q yacht as money could
build, and being about to embark on
tour around the world in it, he natur-
ally desired to belong to frst-class
yacht club. His name, and the names
of his son George and friend Washing
ton Conner, were presented for men,
bership of the Eastern Yacht Club of
Boston. The son was accepted and the
other two rejected. Had he been q
poor man, as compared with million
aires, no might have been black balled
by any number of clubs without at
tracing attention or having his humil-
iation heralded abroad but everybody
knows Jay Gould, and so the incident
is q matter of interest to the general
public. The very telegraph property
In which he is heavily interested is the
Mercury to proclaim his rebuke. He
can push the stock up or down, put in
this officer and out that, combine one
great company with another, and, in o
certain sense, control telegraphy in
America, but he could not prevent the
wires from trumpeting throughout the
country his modification.

COMMENTING editorially upon Prof
Bryce's paper on England and Ireland"
in the same number, the June Century
says of the present aspect of the Irish
question: But to us who watch the
struggle calmly from the other side OF
the Atlantic, such view seems mis-
taken. 1t is mistake not to follow up
the remedial measures already taken
by other measures which will complete
their work. 1t is mistake not to use
the present lull in popular agitation for
the purpose of carrying out reforms
which could not be so well discussed in
the midst of clamor. Above all, it is q
mistake to allow the dynamite and
dagger conspirators to feel that they
have gained their object of preventing
reforms, and further embittering the
minds of both nations. Nothing pleases
these ruffians better than that English
statesmen and the English people
should identify the Irish people with
themselves, and make their outrsges a
reason for pausing in thepath of con-
citation. To us, therefore, it seems
that the Ministry of Mr.. Gladstone
ought to persevere in the policy which
it announced three years ago, and in
which the Land Act of 1881 was so
great a step. 1t may, and Indeed it
ought, at the same time to repress con-
spiracy and outrage with the frmest
| hand. 1t can do so all the more con-
fidently if the rest of its conduct, and
its willingness to listen to reasonable
proposals, show that it is not the victim
of panic. These murders and explo-
sions must be the work OF not very
large band of fanatics. But the fact
that they have not excited more repro
baton in Ireland, and have been pro-
NOTED by certain Irishmen in America,
and applauded by others, shows better
than anything else the depth of hatred
which is felt toward the English Gov
eminent in Ireland. If England has
done so little to lessen this hatred 10y
her well-meant efforts OF the past fifty
years or more, might she not try the
experiment of leaving the Irish more to
themselves, and let them learn, by O
little disagreeable experience, how hard
a thing governing is, and how great are
the evils of disorder? Perhaps, if the
patriots of Ireland had a little more
responsibility thrown on them, they
might learn little more wisdom and
moderation.

THERE is a woman under sentence of
death in Texas for a crime other than
horse-stealing. She compelled her little
daughter to beg on the streets, and in
order to give her miserable and Woe
begone appearance she submitted her
to all sorts of privations. One night
she became so enraged at the poor
starved creature because she brought in
less than dollar that she knocked her
brains out with stick of stove-wood.

THE terrible cyclone appears to be
increasing in frequency and destructive
ness as the season advances, and the
number of its visitations appears to in
crease from year to year. Every warm
day now closes with fury. 1t must be
that important changes are taking place
in the electrical, atmospheric or meteor
illogical conditions. These furious and
sweeping storms in this country are
Of a comparatively-recent occurrence.
Thirty years ago such a thing as a de-
vastating and deathdealing cyclone was
almost unknown on the American con-
tinent; now cyclones are so common
that the inhabitants of every section of
the country are in almost constant fear
of them.

OF Florida Southern gentleman
writes: Il think Florida is overdone.
1t continues to entice Northern people,
who were at first delighted with its gilt
tering foliage in winter, its fruits stand
ing out in open air in January and the
hstless, genial life of an old peninsula.
But 1 see nothing in Florida except the
lumber. The orange business is over
done, and that is proved by the cheap
ness of Florida oranges in the North
this year"

Love started for the far West with his
family, but being robbed on the way of

did not prosper and never accumulated
enough money to send for their chill

CHAsE's MILLS, in Maine, had had q
wrister party-"Hit o. MISS" Uncle
Scion calls it, and his picturesque pen
cil says: "a wrister party is device
to raise little money and have a little
fun. The Yankee is close-fsted, but
is always ready to pay out something
for fun. A wrister party is as good for
the people of Chase's Mills as Wander
bits gaudy balls are for the kings and
queens of the rail. Everybody at
Chase's Mills went to the wrister party.
All the women and girls knit pair of
wristers. Each put one wrister in box
and put the other on. You can buy a
vrister out of the box for half dollar.

soliloquizes Uncle Solen, "down the

might have been more grand and stately,
with diamonds sparkling in the splen-
dor of electric lights, but the march at
Union hall was conducted with military
precision. The broad heels of the
women's shoes all came down to dot
with the heavy tread of the mems thick
boots, the whistlers didn't tire and
touched every note in the tune as dex-
terously as expert violinists. When
the wrister box came round the whist
ling stopped, and the march broke in
the twinkling of an eye. Uncle Scion
took bright-eyed belle, 5 years lod,
ont to supper. She was "as sociable as

Uncle Scion reports that everything
was not exactly square. He thinks
some of the Chase's Mills girls snapped
wristers with their mates. Seventy
wristers were. sold. The money went
for the temperance cause.
