excellent hose and great speed with sur.
prising sagacity and cunning. OF all
things it is most important in a p~oacher's
dog that he should never give tongue.
We can remember the time when lurch-
ers' tails used to be cut to give their
owners an excuse for pretending that
they were sheep dogs. In these days,
however, sheep dogs are usually allowed
TO keep their tails, so there is no object
in docking a lurcher.
Golfers are much given to poaching in
some districts. Their favorite dog is
produced by crossing a very small grey
hound with q bull terrier or spaniel,
Sunday is their great day for poaching.
During the hours of divine service they
go for walks in little parties of three or
four, along public foot paths, and allow
their dogs to range in the fields and to
draw the ~hedgerows. AS every magis'
trate has good reason for knowinga large
number of petty poaching cases depend
1pOn the question whether the culprit
was or was not upon what he calls the
''futtpathn at the time the otfense wal
committed. A rat catcher and a mole
catcher have many opportunities "a
yoaching, and owners of shootings and
eamekeepers would do well to keep
a sharp eye upon persons following
those callings. Perhaps the worst of ali
kinds of poachers are poaching game
keepers. A keeper who hints at any.
thing like sharp practice with regard Il
a neighbours boundaries is never to be
trusted about his own masters interests.
We remember a keeper who was EN-.
ployed on an outlying shooting some
miles from home. The man had always
o good show Of birds and sent a regular
supply for the table, but it turned out
that he was one of the greatest poachers
in the county, and that he had killedaa
sold the neighbours game, if not lis
Raster's, in considerable quantities..

Thrift In Little Italy."

Perhaps the very best thing to be noted
Of the Italians-because, for one thing, it
is susceptible of proof, and for another, it
Is so a~ntagonistic to all vice-is their
thrift. OF that there can be no question.
There are about fifty prominent padroni
In New York, none Of them worth less
than $40, 900, and one worth nearly
$500, 900. In the nature of things the
padrone is a self made man-it is not ex-
actly an occupation for gentlemen-and
his charges, his children over here,
certainly follow his example in money
getting. Around Mulberry Bend, Baxter
Bend and Five Points, names synony-
mou in the public mind with abiect
poverty and squalor, there are about six

PhYsIonI ard Moral Welfare.

Huxley, in a recent article of peculiar
value in The Nineteenth Century. calls
attention to the steadily increasing devo-
ton which has been and is directed to
measures for promoting physical and
moral welfare among the poorer classes.
The endeavor TO improve the condition
under which cur industrial population
live; to amend the drainage of densely
populated streets; TO provide baths, wash
houses and eSmnasia; to facilitate habits
Of thrift; TO furnish ONE provision for
instruction and amusement in public IL
braries and the like, is not only desirable
from q philanthropic point of view, but
an essential condition Of safe industrial
development. IL is by such means alone
that we can hope to check the constant
~gravitation of industrial society toward
misery" But Mr.. Huxley does not point
cut the fact that while a good deal Of
this sort Of work went on in Rome, with
out saving Rome from moral degenera-
ton, it is Of exceeding value as an ad-
junct of moral effort Of a direct sort in
ether directions. -Glob Democrat.

THE New York Sun, one Of the
ablest democratic papers in the coun-
try, fears the mesmerical influence Of
Grover Cleveland upon the party and
looking into the future, points out the
consequences likely to follow the mis-
take Of nominating him for a second
term. II says: "Before the next presi-
Dental election comes the census OF
1890 will have been taken and the
representation of the several states in
the electoral colleges will have been
reapportioned, The only southern
state which Is expected to exhibit q
phenomen al increasein the number of
its inhabitants is Texas; the other
commemorative beyond the Potomac
and Ohio can only be counted to
maintain their normal ratio ofgrowth.
The centre, consequently, of the ma
TONS population will be shifted by the
coming census still farther TO the
northwest, and il will be no longer
possible for the democracy to elect q
president without adding to the solid
south many more votes from the
northern states In the electoral col
leges than are now needed. II may
be possible to capture those additional
northern votes should the democratic
party retain the presidency for four
