and afterward had her photograph

happy in the settlement OF Australia, a
colonization the energetic expansion of
which has not been checked except to-
ward the north. where the conditions
grow unfavorable as the settlements ap-
proach the equator. Hence 1t comes
that, in the northern part of Queens
land. European colonists are not in a
condition to endure the fatigue of agri-
cultural labor. This fact has had much
to do with the efforts made of late
years to annex New Guinea and New
Britain, whence it has been proposed to
draw the manual forces required for the
tillage Of the soil.
In the South African colonies the
Dutch have been solidly established for
some two hundred years; and, in a few
countries of South America, colonies
composed of people of various Europe

qually. There are also some young
colonies founded by Germans on the

still needing confirmation has pla ced in
the rank of healthful countries and
suitable for our people. Reviewing the
results that have been obtained in the
colonies thus briefly enumerated, which
embraces the amount Of the more or
less fortunate enterprises of the kind,
we see that their success has been in in
verse proportion to the difference in
isothermic latitude between them and
the mother country of the colonists.

the general opinion, is not wholly COM

the Yankees is yet to be made out, and

Curious Manner in Which Cores

The current number OF the English Illus
trated Magazine contains a very readable
article on the London Charterh0use. This
institution consisted of double convent of
twenty-fOur monks and prior, besides a
nearly equal number Of lay brothers. The
monks cells formed at once the leading and
the peculiar feature of the monastery.
They were ranged round the great cloister.
which itself surrounded the court OF green
of the monastery. Each cell was a compIet.
dwelling in itself. 1t consisted of q house
OF two stories and garden, along two sides
OF Which ran walk sheltered by pent-
roof. On the lower floor of the house were
the rooms in which the monks ate and slept,
with All OratOry joining, and on the upper
floor was workshop.
Ihe cell communicated with the cOister
oy solid door. In the wall by the side of
me door was square hole or hatch, opening
into an el0Ow-Shaped passage in the thick.
ness OF the wall. Through this passage the
monk communicated with the other inmates
of the monastery.
Ii he wanted anything-a book, ink, wood
he indicated his wish on slip of paper,
which he signed with the letter distinguish
ing his cell, and placed in the passage. The
lay brother found the slip as he passed
along, and fetched the article REQUIRED.
which he in turn passed into the cell through
the hatch. In the same way the monk re.
celyed each day his allotted portion of food.
without any interchange of speech.

PIcNICs AT CRICKET MATCHES,

An English Custom Which May Fall
Into Innoouous Desuetude.
The fashion of making q picnic of the
cricket matches at Lords began some twen-
ty years ago with the parents and relations
OF the boys at Eaton and Harrow going up
to see the match between those schools,
says writer in Harper's Magazine.
1t now extends to the Oxfsrd and Cam
bridge match, and, to a smaller extent, to
some OF the more interesting of the other
displays Of cricket. At the Elton and Har-
row match, wherever the space round the
ground is uneccupled by stands, there are
rows Of carriages three or four deep. They
are sent up the day before to places that
have been allotted them, and the horses tax
en- out.
From four.nfths of these carriages moth.
ing Of the game is visible; nor is there any
reason why there should be, for only about
fifth Of the spectators care for the cricket.
Most of the vehicles serve as depots for
large cold luncheons, which are administer
ed to the friends of the owner by unfOr-
tunate servants who carve chickens and I'M
cork champagne bottles on all four between
the wheels.
Where possible the meal is made still
more elaborate by being served on a tenn.
porary table; and in all the vacant corners
members of the aristocracy and the Stock
Exchange may be seen eating and drinking
in public. dissatisfied friends keep drop
ping in, and the popping of cOrks goes on
