Reports from Victoria, B. c., indi-
cate a strong feeling there and thro'-
out the province against the Domin-
ion government. Dissatisfaction ap-
pears general, and it is said that if a
vote were taken now On the question
of separation and return to the old in
dependent status, it would be carried
by an overwhelming popular voice. A
score or more of small issues and a
hundred petty irritations have stirred
up rebellious spirit, but the real and
serious causes of discord are the rail-
road and Chinese questions.

How TO CULTIVATE FRUIT TREES -
Instead Of trimming up trees ac-
cording to old fashion, to make them
long-legged and long-armed, trim them
down, so to make them even, snug
and symmetrical. Instead Of manur-
ing heavily in small circle at the foot
of the tree, spread the manure, if need
ed at all, broadcast over the whole
surface, where the ends of the roots
can get it. Instead of spading a small
circle about the stem, cultivate the
whole surface broadcast. Prefer a
we'll pulverized, clean surface in an
orchard, with moderately rich soil,
to heavy manuring and a surface
covered with hard crust and weeds
and grass. Remember that it is better
to set out ten trees with all the neces-
sary care to make them live and -four
ish, than to set out a hundred trees
and have them all die from careless
ness. Remember that tobacco is a
poison, and will kill insects rapidly if
properly applied to them, and is one
Of the best drugs, freeing fruit trees
rapidly from small vermin.

Bartholdi's colossal statue of Lib
erty Enlightening the World is on its
way to this country; but the pedestal
for it is far from complete, and the
chances are that it will have to be
stored for months, perhaps for years,
before it can be erected. Being a
gift of good will from the French peo-
pie to the American people, this neg
lect to provide for it's prompt cree
ton in the place for which it was de-
signed is peculiarly unfortunate and
ungrateful. The statue is not pres
ent from one government to another,
but has been paid for by popular con-
tributions in small sums by the French
people. 1t was contemplated that the
American people would be willing in
the same way to pay for building the
pedestal, but all appeals have thus
far failed to procure a sufficient sum
to complete the work as designed.
The sum lacking is about $4,000,
which ought TO be forthcoming in q
day.

TREE TRIMMING.-In old settled
communities tree telling and tree
trimming days are as much needed as
tree planting days. Many houses in
New England are made unhealthy by
the excess Of shade around and upon
them. Sunlight is necessary TO nor
NAL life and health. There are too
many housekeeping young people
whose complexions are unwholesome=
ly suggestive Of potato sprouts in a
cellar. Human life needs the sun
shine as much as do the grass and
flowers. Trees planted twenty years
ago or more are pretty sure to need
thinning out. Very few men look
ahead to the space a tree will fill
when setting it out. Many varieties
Of trees, like the naples, throw out
their limbs too near the ground, if
left to themselves, to furnish whole
some shade for dooryards and parks.
A judicious use of the axe and saw
will improve the appearance and con-
dition Of many overplanted spots.

NEARLY OVER THE FALLs.-An ex-
cursion was made last week to Mag
ara Falls by the members of the Su-
preme council of the Royal Arcanunl
which was holding its annual session
in Buffalo, n. Y. The party took
carriages for drive. In one of the
carriages were Col. and Mrs. William,
Capt. Frank Bloomer, OF Buffalo, and
Mr.. and Mrs. Charles L. Loring, of
Boston. The route was over the
new suspension bridge and down the
Canadian side to the new cantilever
bridge. The road led directly under
the latter, and when near it, an ap-
preaching locomotive let out shrill
screech. Quick as flash the horses
turned short around and threw the
driver TO the ground. They started
in mad career for the falls. Mrs.
Loring jumped and was slammed
with great force against the iron rail-
ing which guarded the precipice. AL
most fainting, she crawled away from
the edge Of the abyss which yawned
$50 feet below. The Colonel and his
wife jumped, but Mrs. BIoomer was
knocked down, and the wheels of the
carriage passed over her ankle, injur
ing it severely. When Mr.. Loring
jumped he was thrown against the
stone abutment of the bridge at the
verge of the precipice. He was
knocked insensible, and had to be
carried to the hotel. 1t was sup
posed that he had sustained fatal in
juries, so violent was the shock, but
the doctor thinks, with skillful treat
ment, he will come round all right.

POLITICAL.

1Observer" of the New York San
in Washington, predicts that Senators
enough to confirm the Presidents APP
pointments can be secured for few
favors in the way of offices.
Harper's Weekly remarks that the
President treats the Independents
with ssentire candor." So the hungry
wolf which ate up its little lamb may
be said to have treated the incipient
mutton with "entire eandor."
A Democratic Memorial Day ora
tor in Kingston, N. Y, took occa-
sion to remind the veterans that the
first act of the Democratic President
was to restore their old comrade, Gen.
Grant, to the army!
The Postmistress of a town in
Michigan discounted her probable dis
mission by marrying the Democrat
popularity reputed to have the best
chance for succeeding to her office.
Mr.. Byxbee, of Meriden, who has
just been appointed Collector of Gus
toms at New Haven, is described by
the Hartford correspondent of the
Herald as San efficient party worker"
The ruling of the presiding officers
in the Tennessee Legislature, that
members present but refusing to vote
could be counted to make up quo
rum, has been condemned by ex-
Speakers Blaine and Randall.
Senator Coggeshall, of the New
York Legislature, denies the charge
of offering to sell his vote and in
fluence, made against him by DIR.
Gum, and DIR. Gum reiterates his
charge, under oath.
Thomas Simmons, assistant attor-
ney general, in charge of the govern
ment cases before the Court of Claims,
has rendered his resignation to the
President, to take effect June /, and
Robert Howard, of Little Rock, Ark,
will succeed him.
CONSERVATION reigns among the
Democrats of the Raleigh, n. c., in
ternal revenue collection district. On
Thursday last Col. Isaac j. Young,
who has held the office for sixteen
years, was reappointed collector by
Mr.. Cleveland,
Senators Dawes, Maxey and Nor
gan, the subcommittee of the United
States Senate to report upon the
advisability of changing the present
status of the Indian Territory, ar
rived at Sherman, Texas, on Tuesday
of last week.
Mrs. Williams, who lost two sons
in the war, is Postmistress at Media,
Penn. A Democrat is seeking the
place. 1t remains to be seen if this
woman with her two assistants, who
are young women, will be treated as
offensive partisans.
Ex-Secretary Chandler thinks that
the time has come when there should
be sufficient patriotism in both parties
to sustain an administration in build
ing a non-partisan navy. The idea
is a good one; the Republicans will
sustain the administration in its eff
forts to benefit the country, whether
it builds navy or uses its influence
to stop the coinage Of silver dollars.
Among six treasury clerks recently
dismissed by Secretary Manning for
alleged "ineficiency,'' there were
three who had passed with the high
est rank in the civil service examina-
tons, and had been twice promoted
for efficiency. Perhaps the term Sin
efficiency" is to be used by way of
relief to the somewhat overworked
pretext of offensive partisanship."
