The police at Weimer, in Germany,
have notified the pecff!!e Of that town
that nobody shall play at piano with
the windows open. The New York
World asserts that the reason for this
extraordinary act is because it has
been found i'm Weimar that Christian
Und Isolde" pounded on forty-seven
pianos on one side of a street, and
Liszt's prescriptions of the "Gotter.
dam merrung" macerated on thirty-sev'
en- other consecutive instruments or
the other side of the street, have a de
moralizing effect upon the civic func
tons of policemen and other officers Of
the town." This ia doubtless true, fol
taken in small doses as evolving from
the "pianist" who reaches this country
after having been trained under The
great and only List, "Mulligan''
guards" and the "Maiden's prayer
seem like the harmonies of Heaven fol
a change.

A generation has passed since Tenny-
son wrote that:
Nsmmonits mother kills her babe for
burial fee,
And Tfmour mammon griss on o pile Of chill
dren's bones.
But the hideOus work of killing children
for money seems to 60 on just az
ever in England. The fashion now j,
to insure children's lives and then de.
stroy them, 10 as to get the insurance.
Ii transpires that though the insurance
companies will only insure healthy
children and reject numbers of those
who apply for insurance. yet the aver
age mortality among insured children
is fifty per cent. higher than the NOR
tality among children at large, as pub
lished in the Government reports. The
inference is unayOidable-great num-
bers Of children must be murdered by
their inhuman parents for the sake OF
the trifling SUM they were insured for

the state OF society among the poor in
England How degraded, how lost to

mouth, with no comfort in the present
and no hope for the future, will brutify
the human species There must be an
equilibrium In all societies. III there are
people raised far above the common
level. there must be others depressed far
below it. The great landed proprietor
who counts his income by the thousand
pounds day implies swarms of men
and women TO whom bellyfuli is a rare
occurrence. The crested duke involves
the vile, sordid, scrofulous, squalid
baby poisoner.
Does II not seem q grOtesque mockery
for the English TO work themselves w
to pitch of fury over the gates of HeSai
and the triumph of the Tory Democracy
when their system brings forth such
fruits as . wholesale system of baby
murder under their own noses? Where
can such things end? To what must
they lead? The British papers urge the
authorities TO take rigorous measures to
suppress this new form of crime"
They forget thst the baby-killers are
merely the outward and visible sign OF
IN inward and spiritual rottenness,
which has eaten deep into the bone and
fiber and blood and sinew of the poor
people of England. Furnishing q muir

The father who kills his child for three
or four pounds is, of course. hideous

But what produces such fathersp What

There can be little doubt thss -
planting of fruit and other trees n
Kansas, that thirty OK more years ago
was almost destitute of forests. has per
ceptibly increased the rainfall there, and
will in time, perhaps, revolutionize the
climate of that fertile State. We have
seen the statement made. on the author
ity of the Governor of Kansas, that the
fruit trees which have been grown there
since 1850 exceed 10000, 900, and thu
forest trees zoo, 900 acres, many of which
have been arti6eially planted. TheSs
are places in Kansas and some othlR
prairie States where protection of land
from fire will lead to the springing up

AS the public business OF the coun-
