Riel's Fate.

Louis Riel has died on the gallows. Even
to the last moment reprieve to life impris-
oment was looked for. But experience of
past history tells us that an English convic-
tion is inexorable. That government does
not trife with offenders. That the unfort-
unate man should receive his fate at the
hangman's hands touches us as a matter of
regret. But at the same time it must be re-
menlbered that the demands of public order,
and the sternest repression of any attempt at
rebellion is the first mandatory condition
of government. One mans life is trife
when put in the balance against such re-
quirement.
1t is contemptibly one sided and unfair
for American journalism headed by such a
paper as the New York Herald to pretend
blindness to this phase of the Riel incident.
For that journal to clamor in its puerle per-
sonalisms against the Canadian premier,
Sir John Macdonald, whose position, not
his individuality, demanded Riels execution,
is simply childish and in conformity with
that journals usual special pleading.
The man who expiated his crime on Mon
day morning last was a determined and
persistent disturber of the peace. This is
the second considerable rebellion he has
headed. Canadian clemency on former
occasion fully pardoned him after he had
caused loss of life, and immense expenditure
of public treasure. Subsequently, after the
full pardon he had received, he recommended
political and agrarian disturbances, foment-
ed bitter hostile feeling among the half
breeds against the government, did his very
best to incite rebellion among the Indians,
and for years was thorn in the side of that
government through whose clemency his
life was spared.
Aside from all this, as in case of our own
Indians, no matter what question of domes-
tic justice or other matter were influenced
by the question, what government, weak or
strong, that even deserved the name of
government, could tolerate the existence of
of an anarchist in its midst, going around
preaching sedition, haranguing the ignorant
savages, and making use of every ingenious
device to incite them to open rebellion. Did
we tolerate sitting Bull or the Modocs, or,
going farther back in our record of Indian
wars, what did we do with Black Hawk or
osceola The answer is Terry, and Miles,
and Custer and jackson who shot the red
skins down by the thousands This was all

by our government And for what reason
We do not question the theory of any justice
in exterminating by the wholesale the
ancient owners of the land-the reason, or
expediency Of it, was that order might
exist under a due respect for the government.
1t is only reasonable to allow the above may
have been some of the Canadian premlers
motives, or more properly, compulsion, in
the whole matter.

How They Get Good Meals and Escape
the vieiiant Hetei Clerk.


How much is my bill2 had three
meals and no room. 2 said a departing guest
to the cashier in one of the hotels yesterday
afternoon, Without looking at the book,
the cashier named the amount, which was
paid, and the traveller left.
you have good deal of confidence in
that mans honesty" was suggested to the
cashier by Q reporter waiting nearby.
How are We going to help ourselves ?"
was the reply, as the cashier shrugged his
Ihoulders. II we take his word for it and
rely on his honor, ten chances to one he
will be honest II we watch the guests some
of them will think ii n fine trick to beat us
just for the fun of the game. How did l
know just how many meals the last man
took hereg He looked like an honest man
for one thing, That goes long way. The
beat betrays signs in spite Of all he can dc
that the clerk makes mental note of wher
he registers, and looks out for any game he
may try. 1t is really curious how man
shows in small things what he really il.
Signs that you or would not notice he de-
tects instantly, and the man cannot beat the
hotel out Of o cent after that"
" But II the man does not register, but
walks up boldly to the dining-room, what
then?" EE
The clerks quietly look over the guests
during every meal, and can tell from long
practice pretty close, but Of course some
q alp through. It goes hard with them when

TIME AND ITS TEACHINGS.

81 have had much experience OF that miserable
complaint"
DIR. Ii l.. Stearns, of East Hawley, Pa, write
thus about FEVER AND AGUE, incidentally re-
marking that he is apraeticing in an eminently
malariots district sf9
"Miserabe'' is, indeed, the proper word for
what complaint is there capable of making Its vic.
Tins more miserable than any OF the various
forms of malarial trouble can dor Other diseases
may kill quicker and possibly cause more acute
agony for brief time but in their ability to
transpose human life into series of wretehed
dragging, joyless days and nights malarial disor-
ders stand first and stand alone. Dr. Stearns adds.
THE regular treatment proved wholly unsatisfac-
tory, and It was not until l began to prescribe
DEStlLER'S ANTI.PERIODIC PILLS, that was
at all successful. Since then more than 500 boxes
KAYE been used under my immediate supervision,
and deem 1T only act of justice TO certify that
have never known single failure.n
Twenty years ago Mr.. II. b. Coleman, then pro-
prletor OF the Aston House, wrote to Mr.. Deshler
u shall not claim the $500 you agreed to give
II your medicine did not cure me- for the Pills
have completely delivered me from CHII.LS AND
FEVER, and health is better than money!
DESHLER'S ANTI-PERIODIC PILLS have
been doing this work for an entire generation,
and their reputation is solid the hills. They
contain no mercury, quinine nor arsenic. They
thoroughly expel the malarial poison from the
system and yet are perfectly safe for both sexes,
all ages and the most delicate constitutions.

The vivisectionsts are interested in
the question of deciding how old an
animal must be before it can be legit-
imately vivisected. Sucking raw eggs
is not vivisection. But when does an
egg become chicken? This question
ought to be settled at the University
of Pennsylvania, for in DR.. Randolph's
scientific incubator now at the Biolog.
ical School the experiment is to be
tried of examining the egg at all
stages of its progress toward chicken
hood. With DR.. Randolph's new
method of supplying the motherly
warmth the egg must become chick.
en-, so at some period of the expert.
ment visisection must set in; the onl,
question is when? We suppose good
criterion would be suitability for the
average boarding-house table. When
refused at this market the egg Ger.
tainly is a chicken, and our scientific
friends had better beware.
