 | A notable thief has just been convicted in the Rhone Assize court. His real name is Gresillon, but he travelled under the name of Walton and pretended to be rich Eng lshman. He affected the accent and man ners of the Britisher, played high and lived in the fastest style. In reality he was con- vict who had several times been arrested for theft and robbery. One of his recent ex- ploits was to rob the safe of the prison of Chi avari, in Corsica, where he was prisoner and from which he escaped with the funds. He was arrested on charge of robbing several churches in the Department of the Rhone and was tried upon one of these charges. His manner in court was cool and impudent. He was arrested at the Cafe Morel one of the most fashionable cafes of Lyons, and when the court sentenced him to twenty years
 penal servitude he smiled contemptuously upon the judges, and, turning to his lawyer, he said, while he shook hands with him, in quite pleasant and somewhat patronizing manner, q will see you next year at the same time at the Cafe Morel. Au revoir!' A paper published in Lindsay, Ontario, has an idea that the federation of the whole world can be brought about, and it has a plan to present. Each province of Canada, and each State of the United States would retain legislative and executive control of it's
 local affairs, the only appeal from the Pro-
 vinces and States being to sort of interna-
 tional supreme court. A continental parlia-
 ment or congress for North America would
 meet at Washington or Ottawa. This parlia-
 ment would deal with inter provincial and
 inter State affairs such as railways. canals,
 public lands, taxation, etc. The experiment
 would work so well that Europe, South Amer
 ica and Australia would soon fall into line
 and have continental federations of their
 own. The Canadian editor has strong hopes
 that even Asia and Africa would ultimately
 adopt the scheme But this is not all. The
 continents would have great pan-continen-
 tai congress or parliament, which would
 legislate for the world in general. The edi- tor thinks that by the system 'sstanding
 armies and gigantic navies, except for police
 purposes, would be done away with; the i'm
 mense expense to which all nations are put for military, consular and general interna- tional concerns would be diminished trade and commerce would be facilitated and tax ation would be reduced to minimum"

About the only things in oul Cotton Dress Goods Stock not likely to sell were a lot of fine Scotch Ginghams at 4oc yard and some French Sateens at 35c. They were too fine quail ties and too high priced. They are just as fine now, but the price has been made 18c. They are a bargain.
 We looked through the En- broidery Stock last week and found some short lengths some soiled pieces-some pieces which have, been with us too long. We laid out table full of bargains. In the lot are some at soc which were marked $I and $1.25, some at 25c which were 75c, some. not marked down as much, but all very cheap and positive bargains.

MARINE INSURANCE FRAUDS.

A vessel sailing from Boston was recently wrecked, and since then the owners and captain have been charged with wrecking it to get the insurance, which, it is claimed, was of more value than the vessel and cargo. What the truth is in this particular case re- mains to be seen, but there is good reason to believe that not little of this kind of busi- ness is done by ship-owners in this country So much of it has been done in England that a royal commission has been looking into the matter The British Board of Trade, under the lead of MT. Joseph Chamberlain, has taken the ground that the loss of life at sea is excessive and increasing; that this loss is to great extent preventable; that over insurance is common practice; that under manning is also common, and that the exist ing law in Great Britain is not effective in preventing these evils.
 The testimony offered by the Board of Trade in support of it's theories is interesting and somewhat startling. During the nine years preceding 1884, 1O,31s wrecks and cas- ualties occurred to vessels in the merchant service of Great Britain and it's colonies. These disasters cost the lives of 3, 392 passen- gers and 21 ,324 seamen. Tables embody- ing these figures apparently show that steady increase in the number of such disasters has been going on. During this period of nine years the total loss by wrecks was nearly 5000, 900 tons, and by casualties not involving total loss damage amounting to over 28, 900, 900 tons. A moderate estimate of the value of the tonnage thus put out of existence is stated to be over $13O, 900, 900, and this with out taking any account of the value of the cargoes. Of the total number of vessels lost in the term of nine years, 696, with 9,497 men on board, are classed as ''miss- ing" and have never been heard from. The wrecks by stranding were ffty-seven per cent of the number lost, and it is stated as an "tundoubted fact" that 8 considerable proportion of these strandings was due to guilty negligence.
 This is an impressive showing, and it ought to furnish a basis for improvement. But it is impossible to make men honest by law it is difficult to see how much i'm provement can be made. About all that in- surance companies can do is to be very care- f,1

The Amsr5oon 1griculturfst says
that ia cold weather much good i
done By feeding hogs heated food. It
warns Up the body. and stimulates The
digestive organs to vigorous action. It
pays always to warm slops in cold
weather. The main reason farmers
do not feed more cooked food to their
swine. Is fancied labor and trouble Of
preparing It a good utensil is alarge
iron kettle. swung upon two poles Of
sufficiently strong wood. The bail is
removed. and piece Of chain, form
ing = loop . foot long. is passed
through each eye Of the kettle, and
over the respective pole The poles
are placed On forked sticks. set in the
ground. The poles should be parallel
and as far apart as are the eyes Of the
kettle. Place near the kettle large,
light trough, made Of two-inch pine
boards. which may be situated in a
small lot separated from the hog lot
by fence with small gate. Old
broken fence rails make excellent,
cheap fuel; they ignite readily. give a
quick, hot fire. and soon die down.
When the cooking is done. rake the
FIRE to one side, and bring the trough
partially under the kettle on that side
from which the fire has been removed.
Raise the pole from that side out OF
the crotches. and let it down. This
will tilt the kettle on the edge of the
trough, and most of the food will be
deposited in it; the balance is easily
scooped out with board or pan
When only one pole is used, it is diff
cult to get the cooked food into the
trough. After the food has cooled
sufficiently. open the gate in the fence
and let the hogs to the feast. Man
aged in this way, the labor of cooking
a kettle of food can be done in five
minutes, and the only expense OF
making the ration is few pieces Of
old rails.
