est question which had agitated Cana
da for years; the French and Catholic
elements demanded his pardon, and
the Scotch and English elements de-
manded that he be hanged. The En-
glish Parliament and Government in
terfered to have the Canadian Govern
ment do the pardoning. Lord Duff
ferin took the step of settling the
matter.
In 1877 Riel put himself at the head
of the Winnipeg people, $4,000 strong,
to resist their transfer without their
consent to the Dominion scheme.
Lord Dufferin's biographer comedies
that these people had been trifled with.
like the Americans of the States at the
close of the last century, when the
British Government adopted its plans
without the least reference to their
sovereign will. Mr.. Legg says: at
is an almost incredible fact that all
these proceedings had been taken to
transfer $4,000 intelligent and COM
paratively wealty people from one
government to another without the
slightest communication with them.
None of them had been consulted.
They had been treated with contempt
The author of this transfer looked up
on them as so many sheep who had
neither feelings to hurt nor interests
to be respected. A government had
been framed for them by Dominion
act, of which they knew nothing until
they saw it noticed in the public prints.
A governor had been appointed for
them Without the slightest intimation
to them. He was on his way to as
sumo their rule, surrounded by officers
whose seats in and by the provincial
cabinet and courts had already, as they
believed, been settled upon. A sys-
TEN of government had been establish
ed for them, in the formation of which
they had been denied all voice, and
surveyors had invaded their country
sent by a powerroally as alien to them
in that respect as the American Gov
ernment would have been. Gath IN

General Grants Disease.

The suddenness with which General
Grants health is being undermined by
cancer at the root of the tongue will
direct attention to this disease.
Cancer in Massachusetts is one OF
the twelve most destructive diseases.
In 1882 it was the tenth most destruc-
tive, in 1873 the fifteenth Taking the
mortality from cancer for the entire
decade of 1871-80. while the deaths
from consumption averaged annually
1926 persons for every 1000 popula-
ton, those from cancer were 40, or
one death for every 1000 people
Hampden county. by the way, has the
least mortality from cancer, .29, while
Dukes and Nantucket rise to .98, and
Suffolk to "A. Hampden also has only
about half as much consumption as the
island and coast counties. The num-
ber of deaths from cancer in 1882 in
the state was 987, of whom GAL were
of women, while the deaths from con-
sumption were $3.50. The decedents
from cancer are from forty to seventy
years of age mostly.
Cancer seems to be increasing, and
Percy Dunn, writer in the Pail Mall
Gazette whose article is quoted in the
Popular Science Monthly for March.
claims that there is a marked increase
in Great Britain, and that it is due to
good living, lnasmuch as the disease
prevails among the rich rather
than among the poor. A
French writer states the proportion
among the rich as LOG cases per 1000,
and the poor 72 per 1000 These
statements apparently indicate a far
greater prevalence of the disease
abroad than here. 1t is said also that
the disease exists among domestic ami
mails, but not among wild. 1t is most
prevalent in England and Central
Europe, while in northern countries it
seldom appears. The article referred
to regards it as remarkable that in
iceland $4,000 people suffered only 81
deaths from cancer in one year, but
this rate was considerably higher than
that of Hampden county for 1882.
when there were but 49 deaths from
this cause to 100000 population. -

not best TO let calf run with the mo-
ther, but 1t should be let in to her

The cheapest pork is that made
from pigs which have becn fed all that
they would cat. If it does not pay to
make pork by liberal feeding, it does
not pay to make il ut all, and It had
better be given up.
At least once year the granaries
should have thorough cleaning, to
prevent the wccvil from breeding in

A common error is in feeding too
much for a few days after lambing
and not enough later, when the lambs
get larger and need more milk.

The Tall Hat.

Perhaps no article of attire is, and
long has been. more consistently
abused than the high hat, which is The
outward token of responsibility in
man. 1t has been called by contemp-
tuous names, as chimney pot, fun
mel, stove-pipe, a glossy cylinder,
and so on, but it is to be observed
that in spite of all, people continue to
wear it. Mr.. Oscar Wilde uttered his
protest at Hiehbury recently, and
dwellers in the northern suburb SEEM
ed to have agreed with him, but it
NAV be doubted whether in any case
agreement was carried so far as to in
duce anybody to abandon it. No one
can defend it, but custom has so braz-
ed the artistic faculty that no onc,---
no one, that is to say, whose example
il is safe to follow-will leave it of;
nor is there any general agreement rs
to what should be substituted. The
tall hat is sham, for it has an affec-
tation of being beaver; it is an incon-
venient thing to carry or dispose of
when it is not being worn, and is un-
rain spoils it, Certainly it is not pic
turesque. There is nothing to be said
on the other hand in its favor every
one wears it because everyone else
wears it. So closely did our fathers
cling to the fetch that they even play
ed cricket in their tall hats. Some |
thing, one would think, must surely |
happen soon to emancipate those |
who are under Its sway. London

The Winnipeg Country.

The Winnipeg country obtained its
real growth from the proximity of the
United States, with its easy estab
lished, genial political government,
wholly dependent on the public will,
and the two cities of Minneapolis and
st. Paul furnish queer comment at
this moment upon Lord Selkirk's col
ony, which is again at war, for reas-
ons nobody at distance understands
or inquiries into. 1t is Selkirkism at
tempting to put its old Highland Tory
institutions into the American woods.
This first war of 1916 led to the union
of the two fur companies in British
America. No emigration whatever
went to the Winnipeg land. The
Bois-Brllles broke out whenever they
wanted to, and by the time the troops
got to somewhere they were no longer
in the field. The Selkirk family final
ly dropped the Improbable venture in
1885. In 1870 it was determined to
take these distant people and force
them into the stone pudding of the
Dominion and again broke out another
war. Mr. Henning says that the
roads around Winnipeg are like mo-
lasses, and the wheels. go into them
aXle-deep.
Looking through Mr.. Leggs' history
of Lord Dulferin's administration of
Canada-the same man who is now
Governor-General of India-I find
that in 1874 Riel was expelled from
the Canadian House of Commons on
the ground that he had killed man
named Scott four years previously.
Riel had established a provincial gov
at winnipeg in combination
with man named Lepine. He was
never brought to trial for the murder,
and after he was expelled from the
House of Commons the Government
)utlawed him. 1t has been recently |
said that outlawry is obsolete under
he English law. and Governor Crit
enden, of Missouri, was denounced

Younger boys. Riel, however. was

Russla's Recruits.


ANY untraveled reader of speeches
and pamphlets denouncing "Russia' $
restless ambition" were he suddenly
put down in Russian village amid II
group of ''mujiks" (peasants) would
be puzzled to connect any idea of am
bition or warlike enterprise with these
stolid, low browed, sallow, heavy
looking fellows in sheep-skin frocks
and high boots smeared with tar, to
all appearances the most peaceable,
sluggish, unenterprising men alive.
Nor is this the only drawback to Rus
sia's assumption of the character of q
military empire. The frequent asser-
tion that whatever else she may lack
she has at least boundless supply of
men, is directly contrary to the truth.
In reality the 80,000,000 of the Russian
empire yield fewer able-bodied recruits
owing to the insufficient food and
low vitality of the peasantry-than
the 10000, 900 of France or the 80, 000, :
600 of England. Only q few years ago
one-fourth of the recruits sent up to a
great military depot in Western Russia
were rejected on account of various
defects, which did not include the or
dinary one of short stature. The or
dinary duration of human life, rated
at 40 years in England, SO in Germany
and SO in Franco falls in different
parts of Russia as low as %, 20 and
even 15 years.
In such circumstances it is easy to
see how terribly Russia must be ex-
hausted by the efforts necessary to
maintain an army seldom, if ever, less
than 100000 strong, and at present
officially stated at $4,000 men of all
arms, including upwards of 10000
officers. The influence of this huge
military idol is felt through every de-
partment of the empire. The whole
nation seems to be in uniform. Men
who, like Ignatieff, have been made
brigadiers or major generals without
ever seeing 2 shot fired meet one at
every turn. The soldier takes prece.
dence of the cavilian in society us in
the field, and any traveller through
Central Asia will remember to his
cost how some Russian officer who
had reached a remote post station in
the desert after him left it before him,
furnished with the fresh horses or
camels which he himself had just been
in vain. But this is only
a small part of the evil. The vast
standing armies which are the servants
of absolute monarchy in one sense, are
its masters in another. Like Sir
Scott in the old legend, the
is doomed to find constant
work for the demon that he has raised
on pain of being destroyed by it. The
crave renown, the officers
the soldiers employment
and booty. These things must be had
at any cost, and cannot be had other
wise than by war. Moreover, other
nations naturally look for achieve
ments worthy of the size and splendor
Of this great military engine, and the
of this fact has prema-
.urely urged more than one czar into
| bloody and disastrous conflict. In a
word, the Russian autocrat, like an
,ther Aaron, has cast down his mar
halls baton and changed it into SER
,ent, which has swallowed every other
orm of national life.-Neao York

peculiarities, ard be subject to piles
and kindred disorders. Some pigs are
| quick to perceive things and ways, and
others are stupid and contrary. Some
are wilder and more unmanageable
than others. All these differences can
be distinguished, and may be noticed
by an observing breeder who has
enough enthusiasm and interest in the
business to take the trouble.
imagine | can always select sow
pig which will make a good breeder
by a sort of motherly appearance
which she evinces when quite young.
There is great deal in the physlog-
nomy of n pig. This is not an @s-
thetical idea, but clear cut, practical
one. The breeders should be selected
on account of brains as well as body.
An intelligent pig is worth more than
mild or stupid one. These charac-
teristics are manifested in these ways
-to-wit: A wild SOW will trample on
her young. and when nursing, spring
up at every little noise. A stupid one,
lacking sense, will deliberately lie
down on them, and stay there, and
smother or crush them; while a gentle

in a bunch with her snout, before lying
down, and she will get down to them
so slowly and carefully that she will
never hurt one. If one squeals she is
on the alert, to know the cause and
how to relieve it. Ihave seen sows ex-
hibit sagacity and care with their
Young which were almost human.
When a sow possesses these charac-
teristics, she should be kept as long as
possible; for such one is not only
comfort, but very valuable. She may
be kept as profitable breeder till or
10 years of age; the profit from her
depending not altogether upon her
age, but upon the condition of her
teeth for the mastication of food. If
fed ground food she will do well
several years longer than upon whole
grain. The growth of the tusks in an
old hog will often keep the grinders
apart, so that they can not masticate
grain. When this is the case, they
should be sawed off close to the jaw
bone. An old SOW always knows more
than young one, and if her educa-
tion is good, this fact may be turned
to good account; if bad, the sooner she
is got rid of the better. A bad exam
pie should be avoided among pigs as
well as among people.-F. d. Curtis.

The Zereba~

The zereba is a striped animal of
the order of Pachydermata. 1t is gram
inivorous, and is usually formed OF
sand and water barrels. Its chief
habitat is central Asia, but it also
frequents the neighborhood of Tamai.
where Englishmen get inside it for the
purpose of being killed by Arabs. 1t
has been supposed that the wooden
horse of Troy was zereba. In the
desert where grass is scarce it will ea&
soldiers -Graham-fed ones preferred.
One of the zerebas most famous in
history was that manufactured by p.
T. Barnum. He made it out of bron-
cho with a paint brush and two pots
of black and yellow paint. One day
ore of the water barrels burst and
washed the paint off. He explained it
by saying that the animal had zerebro
spinal-meningitis. A small zereba is
called zerelellum. Zerebas are rather
difficult animals TO handle. The best
way to treat one is to establish it.
That done you can retreat in good or
der toward Hasheen (or Tamanieb if
Osman will let you) and. after exercis-
ing strict censorship over the press
correspondents, send home dispatches

hundred rebels and would like to be

There is a difference in the disposi-
tions of hogs. All hogs are not alike
either in temper, in physical develop
ment, appetite or ability TO digest
food. 1t is we'll to know these facts.
The differences in most of these re-
spects may be known by the looks of
the animals, their expression, form of
body and action. Some are nervous
and timid, and require very gentle
treatment. Some are delicate in
structure, and this delicacy carries
with it delicate appetite. Different
breeds represent these characteristics
quite markedly. The circumstances
connected with their rearing have
decided effect in producing peculiari-
ties in pigs, and they are also trans
mitted in the blood. Those of a quiet
are always preferable, for
the obvious reason that 1t is less trou-
BILE to take care of them, and they do
not waste food by useless uneasiness,
Some hogs are very 'hoggish" and
ugly Such animals are found in every
breed, and should be got rid of as soon
Us possible. A fighting pig should |
never be bred, neither is it a good idea |
TO raise progeny from one which does |
not manifest an ability to look out for
itself. Such pigs are too much trou-
BILE, as they have to be fused over and
looked after, or they will
lot do well. A successful breeder
must observe the peculiarities of his
pigs and regard them carefully. Some
)igs are naturally inclined to be con-
,tipatcd, and will make poor stock an
