culture, and never can be. The soil is shal- low and covered with moss from two to three feet deep, which holds the snow and ice far into the summer. Neither vegetables nor cereals can ever be grown in any part of Alaska. It has no lumber. From Vancouver Island to Sitka there is not 8 log growing that is fit for the saw. The poor stunted pines that cling to the hills are only fit for frewood. That it has valuable minerals has been proved, but it is doubtful whether the short seasons that work is possible in will ever allow any extended development of it's resources in that direction. As region for prospectors it is the most barren, God-for saken country that ever miner put his foot upon.
 The people of New Orleans are glad that the citys per cent. premium bonds have reached par, having risen from 23. In con- menting upon this change the New Orleans Timss-Depocrat makes the following cheer ing remarks: The close observer cannot fail to notice that the habits of our people are undergoing decided change. We are no longer hee-handed and careless, as ef yore. We have known the bitterness of poverty, and we have learned that economy is the surest means by which to grasp the power that belongs to wealth. The tendency is il- frustrated on the grand scale in the case of our banks, which have in recent years pur- sued the policy of annually laying aside portion of their profits. The result of this policy Is seen in the condition of one of those institutions which has reserve con- siderably larger than it's capital. Our peo- pie, rich and poor alike, are striving to live within their means. This, after all, is the fundamental fact of the situation.

AN INTERESTING EXPERIMENT.
 One of the important matters with which many of the cities of this country have to deal is the spending of the public school money 50 that the Catholics will feel that they are treated fairly. The manner in which this matter has been handled in Poughkeepsie is instructive. A writer in the Christian Union gives full account of it.
 Thirteen years ago there were in Psugh- keepsie two parochial schools, maintained by Catholic authorities, in buildings owned by the church. In 1873 an agreement was made by which the buildings were leased by the owners to the city during school hours at the nominal rent of one dollar per year, the board of education agreeing to keep the buildings insured and in repair also to es- tablish and maintain public schools in the buildings, which should be in all respects the same as the schools conducted under the direction of the board in buildings owned by the city. The organization of these schools by the board was as though no schools had ever been conducted there. These schools have since been under the care of the DOaTQ, auO III 61 uAGGeIS or SCHOOL WOrk, procedure and discipline, and in the recogni- tion of absolute and unquestioned control by the civil authorities, both of teachers and pupils, there has been no distinction between these and the other public schools. All the teachers employed are of Catholic afilia- tions and five are sisters of charity. The owners of the buildings have control of them except during school hours, and catechetioal exercises are conducted for those who choose to remain, or those who may come from oth- CT schools. With this the board has nothing to do, except to provide that no pupil attend ing school shall be restricted in any way in entering leaving the buildings prior to or after school sessions. Daring the thirteen years of this arrangement not one of the board of education has been Catholic, nor has any Catholic been candidate for that office.
 It is declared that this system has worked very satisfactorily. It is certainly @ very liberal one.

Secrets of the eApOthecary's Clerk.

There is one field in which, so it is said, woman, lovely woman, will never find en- ployment. She can never be an apothecary's clerk, because she is not able to keep secret. A pharmacy is regular confessional, and into the ears of the discreet attendant are poured weighty secrets, which it would nev- CT do to intrust to the possession of the gad- ding, gossippY female In the regular course of his business, the dispenser of pills and powders knows all about peoples bodily at- quaintanted with little sins and things of that kind which the interested parties would not have the world know for anything. Then, too. he learns who paints, who powders, who eats opium, who uses belIadonna to brighten the eyes, or arsenic to whiten the skin, who is obliged to use insect powder at home, and various things of that kind which would be too great temptation for talkative woman to give away.

Why Middle Seats in a Car Are Pre-

rE-op, the Railway World

A very common theme of conversation
 among travellers is the question of whether or not A car rides easier in the middle than above the trucks. One of osr railroad con- temporaries some time ago published an article on the subject, and took the ground that there could be no difference unless the siIIs and framing of car yielded like the bnekboard of a wagon. There is certainly no yield to car sills and framing; yet every old traveller avoids the seats, and especially the sleeping berths, above the trucks, and

old travellers generally know what they are doing. If the party who insisted that there could be no difference in the motion in diff ferent parts of the same car had ever cross- ed the stormy ocean in a moderately long steamer he might have received some en- lightenment, especially if sea sickness urged him to find the point of least motion. It is well known that there is less motion amid ships than there is at the stem or stern, and less motion at the bottom of the vessel than there is on deck. A car acts in a similar way. Anything defective about the track jerks the wheels, which transmit the irregular motion to the truck, and that in turn to the body of the coach.

The attorney general of Indiana is man
 of ideas. Under the present law, he says,
 the Mormons who are convicted pose as mar
 tyrs and the plura wives look upon their
 degradation as religious duty which they
 are proud to fulfill He suggests that law
 be passed giving polygamous wives the right to Q divorce as soon as they become dissatis-
 fed with their condition, and allowing them pro rata share of their husbands property with the decree of separation. This, he thinks, would prove an inducement for ad- venturesses to go to Utah and marry the rich Mormons, after which they would get dis satisfied as matter of business in few weeks, and claim the right to a divorce and good share of Mormon plumber. This is certainly an ingenious scheme.
