Recent statistics show that the cost
Of living at German universities, not
withgtanding the fact that.the Germans
are becoming fonder Of spending money
than they once were, is still very low as
con pared with that in America. Rent,
food, and clothes are all cheap, and
there.it is not the fashion, S with us,
to be lavish, SO that the competition in
F, expenditure, OF which SO many we'll
meaning but weak minded American
undergraduates are the the victims, is
practically unknown. Many American
parents find it 10 THAR advantage to
send their children abroad for higher
education, on account Of cheapness,
irrespective Of thoroughness and other
considerations.

Will Call on Louis Riel.

Specials from Prime Albert, n. W.. T., state
that the white settlers and half-breeds in that
district are. complaining unanimously of the
manner in which they have and are now being
treated by the dominion government. The com
plant of the white settlers is that the govern
ment is demanding 81 an acre for lands settled
upon by them from ten to twenty years ago.
The half breeds claim that lands should be ap-
portioned by the government the same as for
the half-breeds of Manitoba after the Red river
REBELLION. Delegates have been sent to confer
with Louis Riel, the leader of the Red river re-
belllon, as to the course they should pursue.
Riel is in Montana

Judah p. B~enjamin's caree was a TO-
mantle one. That the son of an Eng
Iish Jew, born in the West Indies,
should becomes so prominent in law and
politics in an American state as to be
elected United States senator from Lou
isiana at the age of 40, was sufficiently
remarkable, but not so wonderful asthe
fact that, fleeing to England after the
downfall of the confederacy, when near
ly So years old, he shouldforge his way
to the very front rank at a bar where
the outsider finds far harder obstacles
to. overcome than in this country. The
pride of race which the Hebrew feels
does not seem strange in the light OF
such a record.

Apprehsnding Assassination.

Sir William Harcourt, home secretary, has
again been nervous over information which the
police claim to have discovered of Fenian plots
to assassinate himself, Mr.. Gladstone, Mr..
Trevelyan, chief secretary for Ireland, and
other members of the government 1t is said
that these threats are the cause of the proposed
cabinet meeting on Irish affairs, on which Earl
Spencer, lord lieutenant for Ireland, has been
summoned from Dublin. Lord Spencer will be
guarded by two special officers throughout his
Journey, and extraordinary precautions are be-
ing taken to secure the safety of members of
the government Recently no less than twelve
Scotland yard detectives, in plain clothes, were
counted in the lobby of the house of commons,
waiting to escort the different ministers to
their homes.

A friendscf Senator Cahafee who is in Wash
ingt0n said Chaffee was ,one of the greatest
sufferers by the failure of Grant IL Ward. He
lost every cent Of his available resources, Last
year he considered himself worth nearly So
100000, of which 81, 1000, 900 were in Colorado
properties, which have since greatly depreciat-
ed and are not now marketable. AT the time
Of the marriage of his daughter with Buck
Grant he had enc million in cash securities.
When his daughter married he gave her $780,
GOO In bonds. These were all put into the firm
of Grant AZ Ward, and every dollar Of them is
l0st. Ehaffee himself, in street speculation
during the past year, lost 500, 600 A month
or six weeks ago he had $500 0Uin cash securi-
ties just before he made his last visit West
he took his money and gave it to his son-in-law
TO keep for aim during his absence. 1t was
not an Investment, nor for the purpose Of Sc
caring any investment. 1T was simply de-
posted with yeung Grant as 4 trust during
the senator's brief absence. This money in
some Ray reached the hands of Ward and was
lost Chaffee a. practically, pennilesa, and in
a na0st wretehed state of mind. This friend of
ciiafIee says ii is by no means believed that
Ward coHld have lost the large sums charged
up 70 his failure. He believes ~, 600 900 would
cover the Legitimate losses of the firm, and
hints directly al very scandalous developments,
which will result in a rigid investigation of
what Ward has done with the money

sion is mafe tho the climate conditions

Due the former chief of the department
does not agree with the views Of the
present eonmissioRer. He thinks
American teaecan be raised and has been
raised; that is as good as the best inn
ported varieties, and that the object is
worth the expenditure Of d very large
sum of money in the way Of expert
ments. Tea raising in thisscountry has
not hid 4 fair trial, but specimens raised
were not inferior to any. The best tea
testers in New York failed to discern
any difference sbetween the american
and tbs best foreign, and these who
have enjoyed Gen lie Dues hospitality
