Lieutenant Schwatka suddenly began

A Calcutta correspondent of the
London Times writes: A return pub
lished in the Governmental Gazette
shows that the number of persons
killed by wild animals and snakes in
1883 was 22.905. as against 22.125 in
the previous year. OF these, 20,067
deaths were due to snake bites, 985 to
tigers, 287 to wolves, and 217 to Loop
ards. The loss of cattle from the
same cause amounted to Az, 478 animals
being an increase of III on the figures
for the previous year. 1t is some
what remarkable that while the great
majority of human deaths is set down
to snakes, only 1.644 cattle are said to
have persisted from that cause Near
ly three-fourths of hedeaths occurred
in Bengal and the Northwest Pro-
vinces. The number of dangerous
animals killed during the year was

The Italian population Of California
has grown to be very important, both
as to numbers and as to wealth and
intelligence. There are now 700 Ital-
ians in San Francisco. In other parts
of the State there are $4,000, and in
other Pacific States and territories
$500. Altogether there are $4,000 on
the Pacific coast. From 1S49 to 1862,
immigration was. composed almost en-
tirely of single men, but since the lat
ter date. families have predominated.
Nearly all come directly from Italy,
the coast furnishing fishermen and the
rural districts farm-gardeners and
farmers. They were born among
vineyards, olive and orange groves.
They are, therefore, naturally expe-
rienced and practical orchardists.

A new opening for artistic skill has
sprung up in London. There are ar
lists now who devote much, if not all
their time painting flowers on skirts
and trains of ladies' silk and satin
costumes. AS much as $50 or SIS is
often paid for the decoration of one
dress; and floral trimming painted by
hand is not infrequently charged for at
the rate of $55 yard. If this kind
of thing goes on, ladies, instead of sell
ing their old dresses, win have them
cut up and mounted. with view of
framing them as flower pieces" The

charge the duties of life, to bear the
trials of life. to resist the temptations

Tad Lincoln and the COachmah.

From the Cleveland Leader.
Mrs. Lincoln managed all matters relat-
ing to the household and the stables, and
engaged and dismissed the coachmen and
the servants, and she was not the easiest
woman to get along with, either. 1 was
not her coachman, however. During Lin
coins administration / acted as coachman
to the two private secretaries, Col. John
Hay and Mr.. Nicolay. Mrs. Lincoln kept
the poorest horses of any administration
served under, and she had number of her
own coachmen apart from me. One Of
her men was named Burke. He had
been having one of the carriages fixed at
a shop down town, and, coming home from
a drive, he supposed there would be no use
for him for half an hour at least. He said
to me: ''Thomas, am going down town,
and I will be back in few moments. If
any one wants me please tell them" He
had not been gone five minutes before an
order came from Mrs. Lincoln for the car
rage She was told Burke was away.
Mrs. Lincoln made great fuss and sent for
a livery. When Burke returned he was told
that he was no longer wanted, and new
coachman was employed. Of course he had
to acquiesce, but little Tad Lincoln was his
friend, and got his father to write card
asking Secretary Stanton to give him a po-
sition, which 4he secretary did.

BOARD OF TRADE,
1t Holds Its Annual Meeting an
Elects Officers and Committees.

1t Holds Hts Annual Meeting and
Elects Officers and Committees.
Yesterday morning the board of trade of
st. Paul held its annual election, and Oh
retiring W. II. Hubbard, the president, de-
livered very short address, as follows:
To the st. Paul Board of Trade:-The re-
currence of an annual election and the close
of my term Of office afford an opportunity
of very briefly referring to our past progress
and present condition. We have lust
reached our fifth mile stone. This alone
gives us cause for cOngratulation. for like
the human race boards of trade show an
alarming mortality during the infantile per-
iod. Secondly, looking fairly upon the past
and present, we may justly claim to have
been, and to be, an important spoke in the
wheel OF st. PaulS business career. To be
sure, certain circumstances, Just now uncOn-
trollable forbid our being as conspicuous as
boards at more speculative centers, still, we
strive to make the most of our
environment and gather hope and pa
tience from faith in what the future surely
has in store for us. Great problems in
volving questions of transportation and as
to what are true terminal points, are
slowly solving themselves, and for these
solutions we can afford to wait. But to
doubt that these solutions already point to a
vastly greater business and wider influence
for this board is to doubt the influences that
have doubled the wealth and population of
st. Paul in the last four years We are
building largely for the future, striving to
lay foundations that will stand the scrutiny
OF that board of thousand members
which in a million-dollar edifice will
represent US in 1885. Our secretary's
report represents in detail the years transac-
tons. Recollecting the peculiar influences
that have surrounded general business, and
particularly the grain trade. we have moth
ing to be ashamed of. On Jan. IL, 1885. we
organized produce exchange as a sort of
''anneX' to our regular board. Its utility
will become more manifest with the revival
of business in dairy products.
Our past history, regarded in a compre-
hensive way, would seem to call upon us
for greater activity in protecting our COM
mercial Interests, particularly those relat-
ing to transportation, and especially q
more wide-awake wardIng off of
hostile influences. We deserve q
more effective cooperation from our
business community, especially in the
tangible form Of largely increased mem
bership.
In conclusion, / congratulate the board
upon the honorable manner in which all
transactions have been conducted: upon the
fact that no one has 'defaulted. so that not
once, so far as [ know, has the arbitration
committee been called upon to act: upon the
universal cordiality and friendly feeling
that our daily meetings have fostered. For
the courtesy and kindly treatment even ex-

NEW ENGINE HOUSES.
Sites Selected by the Board of Fire
Commit Ssioners.

Commissioners.
The board of fire commissioners met last
night in regular session, President Delano
in the chair. A petition from the fremen
to be allowed to wear white regulation
shirt during the summer months was re-
ferred to Chief Black to arrange for the
style and kind to be worn.
The president reported that the commit
tee to select lots for the proposed engine
houses have chosen one in West st. Paul
suitable for the erection of chemical
house, one near the corner Of Rice strickland
Como avenue for an engine house and one
on Ross street, near Forest street, for an en-
CINE house. The one on West Seventh
street has not yet been procured. 1t was
the intention to build the house
in the Sixth ward suitable
for a chemical, the one on Rice for
chemical, and the one in the Fifth ward for
steamer and horse cart. Specifications,
prepared by E. P. Bassford, by which the
buildings shall be constructed, were sub
mitted to the board.
On motion OF Commissioner Parker it
was decided to advertise for bids for the
construction OF the buildings and the grad
ing of the lots according to specifications.
Commissioner Prendergast of the commit
tee on artesian wells reported that after
looking over the ground they had con-
cluded to recommend the pumping out of
Eggert's well in West st. Paul, and if that
were found to work satisfactorily possibly
to put one in near the engine house. The
report was accepted and the matter left in
the hands of the committee.
Chief Black reported that Capt. Goltz Of
No. 2 and A. j. Britt, Waterman, had re-
signed; that he had transferred A. Martin
from stoker of engine No 1 to captain Of
No. 2; G, Shom from pipeman Of No. 5 to
stoker of No. 1; B. Gallagher from watch
man of No. 3 to pipeman of engine No. 5,
and that he had appointed Robert Young
as Waterman of No. 1. The report was
adopted.
The chief verbally reported that he had
returned the La France engine and that the
new hose carts had arrived and been placed
in No. 1 and 4 houses.
The superintendent of fire alarm reported
that James Sherman had resigned and J ohm
Mccain been put in his place.
Bills to the amount of 50, 700 were ap-
proved and ordered paid and the board adj
