new ZEALAND OWLS.

A queer story comes from New
Zealand. The owls in that island
used to be as harmless as doves
indeed, they once were "mousing
OWLS" and, therefore, useful. But
one night a.settler, left a sheepsllin
nailed to the roof, and an owl came
along and tasted of the fat mutton
left thereon. That owl became a
sheep-killer, alighting on lambs
back three nights later Still more
strange, all the other owls began to
like mutton, and now the New
Zealand bird of that species Stays
thousands upon thousands of sheep,
their appetites growing by what
they feed on, and their numbers
increasing in proportion to their
prosperity. They light on the
backs of the sheep and tear the poor
beasts with their beaks, going at
once down through the carcass to
the kidney fat, which to the OWLS
tongue is the daintiest of morsels.

TWIN EVILS.

The Mormon missionaries ought
to have learned by this time that
the South is bad place to go for
the purpose of making proselytes.
They have been driven out of Ten
nessee, North and South Carolina,
and warned to keep out of those
States. a mob of Spartansburg.
South Carolina, administered to one
of them, the other day, forty lashes
and ran him out of the county. A
second Mormon would have shared
the same fate if he had not got out
of the way.
There is this much analogy be-
tween the Mormons and the Chi
nese: the former insist upon vio-
lation of the law by disseminating
the vicious doctrine of polygamy /;
the latter invade the country and
spread immortality equally as OBJ
jectionable as polygamy. Thus they
degrade labor. Both are evils which
ought to be got rid of. Mormonism
, will be an evil so long as it counten-
ances polygamy, and the Chinese,
who are disturbing element and
even more undesirable residents of
community, will never be recog-
nized as having equal social OF poll
teal privileges with the whites. =

statements advertised by Mr.. S.

"to get their work." respectfully

CENTRE Or POPULATION.

The centre Of population is NOV
ing rapidly westward. 1t is now a
little to the south of Cincinnati,
having long since crossed the
Alleghanies. The movement has
been about AIS miles west for every
mile south. In 1890 the movement
westward will probably be even
greater, and, so rapid has been the
settlement of the Northwest, the
centre of population will he farther
north than at present.

ANTlDOTES FOR MORPHINE.

A number of dogs were recently
dosed with morphine until they be-
came insensible, the object being to
determine what drug would act
most rapidly as an antidote. 1t
was found that hypodermic injections
of theme neutralized the narcotic
almost instantly, although it was
employed only after the heart had
ceased to beat. Caffeine had a con-
siderable anti-narcotic power, but
was not equal to the principle de-
rived from tea.

LONDON, May SIN the House of Com
mons this afternoon Mr.. Gladstone an
nounced that Sir Peter Lumsden and Colo
mel Stewart, of the British Afghan frontier
commission, had been ordered home, and
that they were directed to start at once and
hasten their journey as much as possible.
The announcement has caused an enormous
sensation in both political and military cir
cles. Sir Peters recall is looked upon as the
price paid by the British for the acceptance
of arbitration by Russia. Many express the
belief that by this action Mr.. Gladstone has
subjected England to fresh humiliation and
will be rebuked by the country.
The Standard this morning commenting
on the turn affairs have taken regarding the
Anglo Russian dispute over the A CHAN
frontier question, says: although Mr.
Gladstone aud Earl Granville took great
pains to officially deny the Central News
dispatches published in our issue
Penjdeh to Russia as basis for the settle
ment of the frontier dispute, there can now be
no doubt that the present arrangement for
considering the question was only agreed to
by Russia on England's consenting to Rus
sia's requirement of that place"
1t is now officially stated that Sir Peter
Lumsden has not been recalled in a diplo-
matte sense, but merely to confer with and
advise the ministry as to the true state of
the Afghan frontier.
