Mr. Winaus pays, it is reported, SS5,000 rent for his Scotch shoot ings. If be would, he could not possibly sport in season over q fifth part of his vast domains. But, in fact, in some of his hume rous forests-Fasnakyle and Glen Dannich, for example-not a sin gle deer has been shot since he took them five or six years ago Protection is carried to perfection. They are patrolled by the keepers on a regular system, which re- minds one of tho methods of the Irish police. The men kept under severe surveillance, meet at cer- tain hours at certain appointed stations, while there are solitudes in the middle of the wider ranges on which even keepers and gillies are forbidden to intrude. All tho trout streams are strictly preserv- ed; so that the fish, the deer, the grouse, and the ground game for once ought to be having a happy ime of it-

The Wonders or Alaska.

Ottawa (Ont) Letter: An eve ming paper publishes the follow ing story, told by Mir Mercier, who for eighteen years has been in charge of the Yukon fur station in Alaska. During his stay in Alaska he made collection of bones, fos- sils, etc, numbering over 1000 specimens, which are now on view at the Geological Museum here. Mir Mercier gave most interes- ting account of the district in which he found large quantities of mammoth mastodon bones. There is, he states, some $50 miles from the mouth of the Yukon River, a place where a gigantic glacier empties itself into the stream. The glacier is about eighty feet above the stream, is sixteen feet deep and fifty yards wide. On the surface of the ice is bed some six feet deep, composed of the remains of antediluYian forest growth. The ice from the glacier Is constantly bending over the stream and break ing of. On his first visit he thought he was stepping onto solid earth and jumped onto the mass, but, finding himself sinking, looked more closely and discovered the nature of the soil. Almost i'm meadiately he discovered a mast oion tooth weighing fourteen pounds, and found later several teeth measuring ten feet. He eol- lected some four tons of these bones and cached them, meaning to fetch them in the spring, but the freshets carried them away. He experienced great difficulty in making these researches, as the natives and others held the place in pious awe. He reports that there are about sixty miners seek ing gold at the head of the Yukon, which is 2,200 miles long, and that they find an ounce day. They can only work two and a half months in the yoaT. however.

Cautious States.

Of the States that now give wo- men full eligibility to educational office, several have arrived at 1t by rather amusingly cautious stages. In 1S7S kansas reported that wo- men voted at school meetings, land in some cases had been per mitted to hold offices" in 1879, that they may vote in district meetings and by n legal decision (dating two years earlier than the reluctant report of the previous year. they may hold even a county superin- tendency;" in 1881, the report boldly announces that they may vote for or hold any school office whatever, and that according to the constitution there can be no distinction of sex in educational matters. Vermont, in 1879, reports that women may vote in all school matters, and may held minor offices;' but in 1881 reports them eligible to all school offices. The phraseology of the earlier Kansas and Vermont reports calls to mind the report made in perfect serious ness by a certain Massachusetts committee, and put on record by Colonel Higginson: "As there is neither honor nor profit connected with this position, we see no req son why it should not be filled by woman."-M. W. Shinn in De cember Overland.

paper was 4@5 per cent. Sterling exchange
was dull but steady nj S+.sTl< for sixty days
and 81 .s914 for demand. Government bonds
were dull and steady. State bonds were
neglected. Railroad bonds were quiet. The
total sales were &, l27,000. Stocks continue
very dull with changes of only small frac-
tions. This morning the market was gener-
orally a shade lower, and In the early dealings
in many cases further small declines were es-
tablished, but from that time il was firm to
strong. In the last hour prices were about
steady until near the close, when there was
another small rally and the final figures were
from q to q higher for all the active stock.
Among the inactive shares the Wabash

that the strike on the Southwestern system
