he put the check in letter and mailed it,
as directed by Bruen; that before the de-
parturc Of the mail Bruen asked him II

that he had went out and soon afterwards
returned with the letter.

SCHOOLS OF CRImE.

Are the jails of this country schools of crime? Dr. E. A. Meredith of Toronto thinks they are, and in an article entitled Compulsory Education in Crime,'' which appears in the August number of the Ando- yer Review, he calls attention to some facts which ought to receive more attention than they do.
 Dr. Meredith states that one hundred and fifty thousand persons annually pass through the jails of the United States, and that, al- though the stay of the larger number of them is comparatively brief, no restrictions are placed upon these criminals in their relations with one another until sentence has been passed upon them and they are remanded to the State prison for the term of their sen tence. It is found that, with the greatest vigilance on the part of the officers, the in- mates of houses of correction find opportu- mites to carry on the work of the education of the young in the criminal processes that older convicts are familiar with, and the evil has produced results which have often turn ed these institutions into schools for the pro- motion rather than for the repression of crime. But the evil reaches far larger pro-
 
 older criminals, during the delay of justice, are allowed the free instruction of young and comparatively innocent persons in the processes of crime and the indictment to 8 criminal career. The jails are mostly under the control of municipal authorities, and are seldom visited by those who have care for the morals of the community, and this plains why the promiscuous intercourse of criminals is allowed when they have no work in hand and nothing to do but gloat over their criminal doings
 pr. Meredith says there are but three jails in the United States-one in Boston, one in Washington, and one in Mansfield, Ohio where the system of the absolute separation of prisoners has been rigidly enforced. And he shows that in many cases the common jail is now made so attractive for it's oppor- tunities of conference over methods of cIim- ! inal action that it is often preferred by des- perate characters as place whes they can enjoy rest and recuperate themselves for l further depredations.
 There is great deal of pretty solemn truth in all this. Very few people go out of our jails without greater knowledge of crime | and criminal methods than they had when they went in. Some system that will not | spread crime and harden young criminals is ! imperatively needed.

loose in Adelaide, South Australia, a few years ago, and as result of this stupendous blunder there are now at least 10000 of the little pests. They have not spread over the colony much, but have crowded into the settled districts, for they feed almost entire ly on the fruit and grain produced by culti- vation. A recent letter from Adelaide says: The sparrows are now busy picking of all almond fruit buds as they swell, and the peach, apricot and plum will be attended to in due course. Should any buds be spared, the sparrows are early in their attention to the ripening fruit, and the grain before ready for reaping will be cleared by them. In the sparrows we have an enemy far worse than the red rust, locust or Russians, and what with the favorable climate, the ab- sence of natural enemies, and the immense breeding grounds in the ranges, my impres- sion is that unless some effective remedy is found the whole colony will in less than twenty years be reduced to mere sheep walk
 Lydie Pashlzof announces in the Figaro the approaching restoration of the empire of Tamerlane under the sceptre of the White Czar. And, shes explains that this empire must include as 8 matter of course-for oth- erwise it would not be Tamerlane's empire Delhi on the Ganges. In the first instance, however, the White Czar will be satisfied with all the territory lying between Afghan istan and the frontiers of China; and it will not be until after war with England that he will take possession of Delhi on the Ganges. The coronation of the White Czar as Emper- or of Central Asia is to be celebrated at Samarkand; and the Emir of Bokhara (who equally with the chief of the neighboring khanates dislikes the idea of being formally and finally effaced) is to give up for the occa- sion Tamerlane's insignia of power-that is to say, his helmet, his sabre and his shield. The Emperor of China is to be called upon to cede to the new empire all outlying terri tories in which the bulk of the inhabitants are Mohammedans; and before long the world will see united beneath the same au- gust ruler the greatest Christian empire and the greatest Mohammedan empire.

Try and See. All Gloves :?
 Yes, All!

All our facbric Gloves are marked down. We have few too many. We bought too many fine gloves, and we now must sell them by making them the same price as cheap gloves, which are not worth half as much. To simplify matters we make of our gloves but four lots. 1st, all our finest gloves, fine silk and all lengths, black and colors, which were $I.oo, SIPS and upwards, are made 75c. 2d, all gloves not in the first lot Goo, 75c and upwards, are put in at soc. sd and 4th, all our other gloves, ranging from soc to Goo, are divided in- to two lots at 25c and SOC.
 Nothing is kept out. Better pay us 25c, 38c, soc or 75c, and get gloves worth having, than to pay the same price for cheap grades.

How Kit carson,s Life Was Saved.

From the Cincinnati Commercial Gazette.1
 During the last war the great Navajo tribe of Indians were on the war path. The First Regiment N. M. volunteers, commanded by the great scout and Indian fighter, Col. Kit Carson, was ordered to subdue and bring them into subjection. Major Joe Cummings, who had organized one of the first companies of the regiment, and as brave man as ever
 lived, was one day riding at the head of the command with old Kit, when the following incident took place: Kit was dressed in his old suit of pepper-and-salt, while the major was in full regimentals, even to epaulettes. While Kit hated dress and tinsel, the other lived to dress. They were now nearing canon, and Kits well trained eyes were first to discover the smoke of the red skins as- cending from the neighboring mountain, telegraphing the approach of she soldiers. It was then that the big hearted old trapper and patriot turned to his friend and said: stJoe, you had better change your coat and hat, and put on blouse and slouch hat, for we will soon have hot work, and the var hints will surely aim for the commander, and as you have on your regimentals they will take you for me; at any rate you make a ssColoneI, it is no time now to go the rear, :" They were the last words ever uttered by the brave Cummings. Bangl went rife, and as the smoke curled up beside rock the brave major fell mortally wounded, pierced between the eyes by an unerring aim of 8 hidden foe, amid the wild yells of the sav- ages, hidden from view, who imagined they had killed the greatest scout that ever l lived.

She Caught Hin.


 A certain lady suspected that her husband was in the habit of kissing the cook, pretty German girl, by the by, and resolved to de- tect him in the act. After watching four days, she heard him come in one evening and gently pass through into the kitchen. Now, Katie was out that evening and the kitchen was dark. Burning with jealousy, the wife took some matches in her hand and, hastily placing her shawl over her head, as Katie often did, she entered the kitchen by the back door, and was almost immediately seized and embraced and kissed in the most ardent manner. With her heart almost bursting with rage and jealousy, the injured wife prepared to administer terrible rebuke to her faithful spouse. Tearing herself from his embrace, she struck match and stood face to face with Katies beau, one of the factory boys. Her husband says his wife has never treated him so we'll since the first month they were married as she has for the past week
