The meteorologists have found out that
the temperature for the past two months
has been abnormally high for this season
of the year. In Manitoba it has been nine
degrees above the average. At Minneap-
oils the Mississippi is open, and q pro-
posed skating carnival has had to be post
poned until February. In eastern Canada
the temperature has been from one to four
degrees above the normal; and the same
is true in our Northwestern Territories,

While W. ID. Howells was young man
living in Columbus and was on the editorial
force of The Ohio State Journal, he wrote q
poem which was published in The Atlantic
Monthly. In due time came . check in paw
ment for the poem, which was among the
earliest literary productions of Mr. Howells,
before he had turned his thoughts toward the
field of prose fiction. The check was highly
priced in itself by the young poet, but did
not fill the full measure of his aspirations,
for shortly afterward he demanded of An init
mate friend with much difidence but great
earnestness Jim, when you have 4 check
tor some money, how do you get the cash for
it2" The intrcacies of this financial operation
being explained, the amount of the check was
deposited to his credit in the bank. The
money was not destined, however, to form a
part of Mr.. Howells' ultimate estate, for
shortly afterward, he again repaired some
what embarrassed to his more practical friend
and asked, in quandary: Jim, when you
have some money in the bank. how do you
get it out again?" Since that time, Mr..
Howells has had little difficulty either in get
ting money into or out of the bank

The Irish Parliamentary Fund grows

having the advantage. This war is now
practically Ut an end. The difficulty be-
tween Corea and Japan has been amicably
settled. The Central American States
have been in a state of revolution. and the
turmoil Is not yet entirely ended. France
and China have concluded peace. The
Riel rebellion has come and gone; Riel
has been executed, open strife is over. but
there is bitter hatred betweed the Riel fac
ton and those who support the Dominion
government. The signs of peace
throughout the world are more abundant
than a year ago, but who can tell what the
tangled web of diplomacy and despotism
may unfold before the coming year has
run its course?
The harvests of the year have been
abundant. There will be no lack of food
tor the year to come as there has not been
in the year just closing. The wheat and
corn fields of the United States are spread
ing over a vast area and furnish bread to
millions of people on the other continent.
Business has been depressed the whole year.
In some branches there is a revival, but it
will be some time before our industries
and trade and commerce will be as -four
ishing as they were before the dull times
came upon US.
Grover Cleveland was inaugurated
President of the United States, March 4th,
and the country is under his administra-
ton. The President has been remarkably
successful in getting the party which
elected him into a profound feeling of dis
satisfaction with his course and with them
selves for having voted for him. He is
an enigma to them. With the death of
Vice President Hendricks they seem to
have lost their hold upon the administra-
ton. The coming year is going to be ex-
ceedingly interesting il regard to our pol
itics. The developments of Congress will
be awaited with great deal of interest.
In England the ministry was dissolved
and a new election held, in which the
Parnell members gained the balance of
power. 1t is rumored that Gladstone and
Parnell will unite forces and that the re-
suit will be Home Rule for Ireland through
an Irish Parliament.
Among matters of general interest
which have occurred during the year may
be mentioned, the reduction OF postage in
the United States, dedication of the Wash
ington Monument, enforcement of the
Edmnnds law in Utah, visit of the Prince
and Princess OF Wales to Ireland, recep.
ton in New York of Bartholdi's Statue of
Liberty Enlightening the World, the yacht
race between the Puritan and Genesta for
the American cup, Jumbo" killed by a
railroad train. Flood Rock blown up. pas
sage of bill! by the Brazilian Congress
for the abolition OF slavery in that coun-
try. and the completion of the Canadian
Pacific Railway.
The mention of these few leading facts
in the occurrences of the year recalls to
mind that time is always on the wing. and
the affairs of this world as restless as the
tide. The record of the old year is near
ly finished; our faces now are turning to
the coming year. May it add to the bless
ings that mankind eniOy.
