Every solitary kind action that is
done, the world over, is working
briskly in its own sphere to restore
the balance between right and wrong.
Kindness has converted more sin
ners than either zeal, eloquence or
learning and these three never con
verified any one, unless they were
kind also. The continual sense
which kind heart has of its own
need of kindness keeps it humble.
Perhaps an act Of kindness never
dies, but extends the invisible undu-
latlons of its influence over the
breadth of centuries. r W. Faber.

Prof. S. E. Baldwin, of Yale College,
at a meeting of the American Social
Science Association at Saratoga, read
a paper ON ''How to Deal With Habitual
Criminals" which is worthy the atten-
tion Of those who have given this ques-
ton any consideration. He holds that a
supervision should be kept over Grim.
inals who have served more than two or
three terms. This is undoubtedly the
right idea, and if criminals knew they
were under surveillance, a surveillance
so gentle that they would not feel it
until they relapsed into their evil ways,
that knowledge would often deter them
from committing fresh crimes. Under
the pardon system prevailing in so many
States criminals are turned loose and at
once their war on society
anew, because no effort is made to re.
claim them after they leave the Jail.

In the course of lecture recently de-
livered at the Hygienic Exhibition in
Paris NJ. Bertillon stated that during
the year 1885 there were 922, 36l births
and S36, 1877 deaths in the whole OF
France, the excess of births over deaths
for the year being only 81, 464. 1t would
not be easy to exaggerate the significance
Of these figures. They show that an un.
satisfactory movement Of the French
population, noted by every census for
the past fifty years, is being unmistak.
ably aggravated. In 1872 the excess OF
births over deaths in France was l72,-
1886; in 1873 it was l0l, TIC, and in 1879,
96, 647. Standing now at S5,464, the
excess has thus fallen to less than
half what it was fourteen years ago.
But to conclude that France is in any
danger of de~population would be as great
an error as to suppose that a high birth
rate is always a sign of national pros
perity.

rUE TELEPHONE OF 1894.

A quotation, not much known, from
the works of Robert Hooke, published
in 1864, would seem to show that the
telephone is not such a modern inven.
tion as is generally thought. Hooke
says: "And as glasses have highly
promoted our seeing, SO it's not improb-
able but that there may be found many
mechanical inventors to improve our
other senses, of hearing, smelling, tast-
ing, touching. 1t is not impossible to
hear a whisper a furlong's distance, it
having been already done; and perhaps
the nature of the thing would not make
it more impossible, though that furlong
should be ten times multiplied. And
though some famous authors have af-
firmed it impossible to hear through the
thinnest plate of Muscovy glass, yet /
know a way by which it is easy enough
to hear one speak through o wall a yard
thick. 1t has not yet been thoroughly
examined how far o~ctocousticons may be
improved, nor what other ways there
may be Of qu%ickening our hearing, or
conveying sound through other bodies
than the air; for that is not the only
medium. / can assure the reader that l
have, by the help of a distended wire,
propagated the sound to q considerable
distance in an instant, or with as seem.
ingly quick a motion as that of light, at
least, incomparably swifter thar that
which at the same time was ~propagated
through the air; and this not only in a
straight line, or direct, but in one Bonded
in many angles"

The Danish Government recently
prohibited the circulation in Denmark of
a newspaper, the Danish Pioneer, pub.
lished in Omaha, Neb. This was done
on the basis of the provisional law of the
18th of August, which the Ministry pro.
claimed without the sanction OF the
Legislature and contrary to the will of
the people. No special reason is given
for the prohibition. The suppression Of
the liberty of the press is a ~favorite act
with confessediy tyrannical Governments.
but in the instance of a Constitutional
Monarchy within the limitations that
hedge royalty in Denmark such an arbi.
trary exercise of power is unusual, and,
to say the least, injudicious.

Experience Of SchOOners During the Late

PROvINCETOWN, Mass, Jan, ii.
An unknown schooner anchored off Truro
was towed this noon by the cutter Gallatin
and proved to be the schooner John II,
Capt. Pitcher, Turks Island for Boston, salt.
She is covered with ice. her hull, .pars and
rigging being heavily encased. Capt. Merrill
of the schooner Geo. Nevinger passed through
the same experience only with more fatal re-
suits. The Nevnger left Vineyardhaven
with fleet and encountered the same storm
off Race Point, and while tackng off Wood
End carried away her jib and anchored near
Wood End light. The wind shifted to the
northeast Saturday morning and the vessel
dragged into the breakers in a dangerous
position and hung to her anchors till after
noon, colors in the rigging for assistance.
As none came he was obliged to slip the
cables and beach the vessel, hoping to save
her with cargo and crew after striking bot
tom. The wreckers on the beach were un-
able to reach them and with night fast ap-
proaching and the crew in the rigging death
by freezing appeared very near at hand,
when the end of the throat halyards FORUM
ately blew within reach of the men on the
shore and they were then quickly rescued
from their perilious position. A number of
other vessels passed through the same exper-
fences with more or less damage.
Schooner Effie J. Simmons also had an ex-
rerience. She ran off the fats in the harbor
being without anchors and unable 10 reach
the wharf She lays easy and perfectly
tight and can be floated with slight assistance.
Wreckers have contracted TO float schooner
j. w. Haskell, ashore on Long Point, and
deliver her in Boston with cargo.
Tug Charles Pierson was ordered this
noon to the assistance of an unknown barken-
tine reported anchored on Middebank in dis
