DR.. BoNvn of Philadelphia, has been
conducting various scientific demonstra-
lions with view Of ascertaining II there
is any signs Of evolution in the structure
of the human jaw. Failing to discover
any he concludes there Is no scientific
basis for the whole evolution theory.
The jaw may have been thoroughly
evoluted before the Doctor commenced
his experime n tai examinations.

The Hawaiian treaty, originally in
tended for the benefit Of the sugar con.
sumers on our Pacific coast, has proved
very disasterous to the interests Of the
Louisiana sugar growers and the re-
fineries of this country. The treaty Is
not only disasterous to American sugar
interests, but is in no sense reciprocity
treaty as claimed and labelled. The re-
bate on sugar duties alone amounts to
more than our whole export trade TO the
island, and the sooner the treaty is abol-
ished the better for our industries
Uncle Sam was never yet fooled into u
reciprocity treaty that did not work to
his disadvantage. The only policy that
works 90 i'll to our home industries is a
sound protective one. In this, and in
this alone, is there safety for American
growers and American manufacturers.

ONE oP the curiosities OF the Yellow
stone Park, which has been little no.
ticed by tourists is the obsidian cliff, Of
which a particular description Is prom
ised in one OF the forthcoming volumes
Of the Geological survey. Prof. IddIDgs
says this cliff, which is from one hun
bred and fifty TO two hundred feet high
and half mile long, is "as good a glass
rs any that is manufactured" The form
alton is most peculiar and is supposed to
have originated In an ancient flow Of
obsidian over the slope lying to the east
and reaching the cliff poured over It..
The original thickness of this flow 1t is
now impossible to Diet ermine. The wall
Of glass at its base is still from seventy
five to one hundred feet In thickness, but
the upper portion has been eroded, and
being pumaceous has suffered from gla-
clsl action. The general color Of the
cliff Ia a jet black, but there are gener-
Gus streaks OF bright brow nish red, and
other shades OF brown from dark to light
yellowlsh,an even owe green ana pur-
pie. In some places the glass was bro
ken in the process of cooling into small
angular pieces and these being cement
ed In the lava flow have formed very
beautiful effects. Altogether it 10 the
most picturesque and characteristic
variety of volcanic lava yet discovered,
and is not only phenomena Of impor-
lance to the scientific investigator, but
one Of rare interest to the visitor. A full
description Of the rock is being pre-
pared In the share of an appendix to
one Of the early reports of the GeoOgi-
cal survey of the park.

CLEVELAND gives $500 to help elect a
democratic judge to Office in New York,
and yet because a district attorney in
Missouri gave an hours speech to help
elect a democratic congressman there
his official head was sent to the basket.
This is a great country under democratic
rule. What right had Mr.. Cleveland to
curtail the freedom Of speech in that
manner? What right to remove man
from office until it was shown that he
was using his official position for politi-
cal purposes? The power and privilege
Of making a political speech belonged to
the man Ms a citizen, not to the district
attorney as an officer and was in no way
connected with his office. Reform at
the spigot and abuse at the bung-hole
seems to be the law Of this admlnistra-
tion.

Perhaps none feel so much as thoss
simple mountaineers the pangs of separ-
Ting from their parents, particularly,
for the respectful obedience to parental
law shown by all classes of Italians is
81 ething very pleasant to see.. Indeed
some persons have been known to smile

letter of one of these robust. broad

mother on the birthday of the latter,
has for its beautifully expressed feelings
never been forgotten b. the one whom
the poor fellow asked, with many
bushes at his incapacity-it was before
he could use apen-to write it for him.
The letter ran thus: my beloved and
respected mother: When they told me
that there WAS a letter arrived
for me, my heart sung (iteral). for l
knew it was from thee, and when the
kind friend who writes these words read
it to me, l had no voice to speak my Joy

An Unsoplisticated Postess-


The reader possibly may not know
that The Century Maya inc is the cen
ter of al out all that ew York has OF
lie l. oston sort of acute culture in a
lit, rary way. | oswell smith is the boss
of the company, and, as he is rich, be is
called upon to do something in the line
OF literary enter ainment. The other
day N OF the magazine poetesses came
to town. | o name her, because
there is no particular use in subiecting
her to general ridicule; and besides, she
writes such awfully sweet verses about
love that ha. e a tender regard for her.

honor.
1t Mas a nice little affair. There were
twenty or thirty of Ms there: and a ter a
presentation to the lioness of the evening
we drifted INTO the dining-room, where
there was a spread of refreshments.
The poetess was unused to fashionable
life. she was an engaging creature, full
of quaint Qualities, but she had come

lions are unknown. liter nearly all

GLADSTONE

Mr.. Gladstone is about to appeal to the
English people for justification. If it is
given, we know what the policy of the
Government will be. If it is refused, We
are wholly at sea concerning the future
policy of the empire toward Ireland. There
is some reason to believe that the Premier
will be Endorsed. Two years ago the sub
jeet Of home rule was not tolerable to the
English people. 1t was, indeed, an ofense
to the English stomach to even name it.
But ideas progress rapidly in England.
In less than twenty months from the time
when it was nearly an act of rebellion to
even mention home rule, Parliament was
deliberately considering it, and the adj
ministration stood pledged to it. That it
may in briefer time become an accom-
plished fact isnot therefore improbable.

THE TIME FOR ACTIVITY.


Vow is the day, not only of promise,
but for performance in California The
towns that improve the hour are those that
will have permanence of prosperity and
growth in all lines. Interests are be-
coming fixed, population centers are de-
termining, trade focal points are being
made, and by DEGREES not easily unsettled.
In the activity that dominates nearly all
sections of the State, Sacramento cannot
afford to be apathetic. Whatever adyan-
tages are to be seized upon, or created, or
forced, we must be alive to now. The
coming summer is to be a season big with
great interests for this State. Our share
in them as unit of the State being, ought
to be as large as that of any other section.
In new country local growth must be
cultured and stimulated and directed. Sac
ramento's natural advantages are great,
but we must not trust wholly to them.
There is such a thing as natural advan-
vantages being passed by. 1t is an ex-
cellent time for the organization of local
improvement movement to keep Sacra-
mento to the fore, and to see to it that in
the competitive race between the towns Of
the State our place in the ranks is not ne
elected
