woman's Tenacity of Life.

1t appears from the gathered statis-
ties of the world that women have a
greater tenacity of life than men. Ma
ture worships the female in all its va
~rieties. Among insects the male per-
ishes at a relatively early period. In
plants the seminate blossoms die ear
Hest, and are produced in the weaker
limbs. Female quadropeds have more
endurance than males. In the human
race, despite the intellectual and physi-
cal strength of the man, the woman en-
dures longest. and will bear pain to
which the strong man succumbs. Zy-
motto diseases are more fatal to males,
and more male children die than females.
Deverga asserts that the proportion
dying suddenly IS about 100 women to
$50 men; 1850 men IN the United
States, 10 1870, committed suicide to
295 women. Intemnerance apoplexy,
govt, hydrocephalus, affections of
the heart or liver, scrofula. paralysis,
are far more fatalto males than females.
Pulmonary consumption, on the other
hand, is more deadly to the latter. Fe-
males in the cities are more prone to
consumption than in the country. All
old countries not disturbed by emigra-
ton have a majority of females in the
population. In royal families the sta
tistics show more daughters than sons.
The Hebrew woman i exceptionally
long-lived. The married state is favor
able to prolongation to life among wo-
lien. DIR. Hough remarks that there are
from two to six per cent. more males
born than females, yet there is moro
than six per cent. excess of females in
the living population. From which sta
tistics we conclude that all women who
can possibly obtain one of these rapidly
departing men ought to marry, and that,
as men are likely to become 50 very
scarce, they cannot be sufficiently priced
by the other sex.-Modern Age.

A young man stepped out from the rear of the

over the mans head several times, paus-

bump. Then looking the victim OF
his examination squarely in the eyes, he turned
him around slowly till his face was brought in
full view of the spectators. With his left hand
resting on the victims head, he made a gestic-

marvellous discovery, and then proceeded to
address the audience on the result Of his ex-

witty remarks on the subject when the vic

and tapped the phrenologist on the neck, send
ing him rolling on the floor. The blow was
followed up by the enraged young man who
had been pronounced a thief, and the phren-

guest of Father Chappell, hen he will re-
tu~n to st. Paul. At a meeting in the in
terest OF the new university Bishop Ire.
land mad ar eloquent address. Among
other thugs he said:
The university was placed in this city in
the center OF American life because here it
would be most widely known. We are not
afraid OF the light; we court it. All Amer
leans are proud OF this beautiful city.
They feel hat it is their city and they are
at home. Other cities wanted the ~univer-
sity. They made splendid offers. In Chi
cago they say, why didn't you locate
the university here? We would have run
up the building for you in a little while"
But placed anywhere else the university
would nave been a local institution; now
it will be national.
Bishop Ireland evoked a laugh
at the expense OF Father Chap
pell by saying that the latter
had promised that Washington would on
tribute 5000 0 if the university was To-
Gated here. II intend to hold DR.. ChappelL,

then said that in November, 1889, they
expected to open the university. The di.

with eight or ten professors, then the 9th

ply, letters, etc., until the grand plan a

Destructive Fire in New York City.

New York has recently lad it's first great
fire in years when a big hole was burned in
a big block in the Wholesale section OF the
city, and property worth 81, 400. 600 was
destroyed. The ominous signal known as
three SKIES" which summons nearly
every engine company in the city, called
many iremen to the Broadway
block, between Prince and Spring streets.
4 big fire that started in the base
ment OF the fve-story double building, Nos.
$40 and 551 Broadway, spread to the ad-
joining building north and south, and la id
them all to in ruins. The building had ex.
tended through the block to Mercer street,
solidly covering a plot of ground 100x200
feet. A heap OF ashes, bricks and broken
iron. smoking hot, covered the same ground
before noon, every part OF the building
having been demolished. Property worth
about 81, 500, 900 was destroyed by the
fire, and one brave fireman sustained fatal
injuries.
The burned buildings can be replaced for
$500, 900, and the damaged buildings can
be repaired for $50, 900. This makes the
total loss about 81. 400, 900.

Winona and St. Peter Railroad
Lands,

The secretary OF the interior has directed
the co nmissioner OF the general land OIL
fee to demand of the Winona d st. Peter
road the return OF certain even-numbered
sections of land certified to it in lieu oil
odd-numbered sections ~relinquished by the
road from its grant, because occupied at
the time the withdrawal OF the grant was
made. A full statement OF the govern
ment's view OF the matter, taken up on
the suggestion of Congressman Lind, will
be submitted to the road with the demand,
and upon the answer Of the o will de-
pend the action to be taken by the govern
ment. Mr.. Lind made IN argument be-
lore the secretary of the treasury on the
question as to the status OF lands lying
within granted and indemnity limits at
the intersection OF the two lines OF road,
The st. Paul & Sioux City n
the Winona & st. Peter cross each
other in Minnesota, and were given grants
of land under the same act. given them the
same right to granted lands lying within
the limits OF both grants. Certain lands
lying within the granted limits Of the
Winona & st. Peter road also lie within
the indemnity limits OF the st. Paul q
Sioux City. Certain OF these tracts, being
occupied by homesteaders when the
Winona & st. Peter filed its map
of definite location, were excepted
from hat grant, but being
subsequently abandoned, the st. Paul &
Sioux City claimed them as indemnity. A
ruling of the department has settled that
a tract OF land occupied by a settler when
a withdrawal is made and subsequently
relinquished does not assimilate with the
grant, but rcverts to the public domain.
This, OF course. bars the Winona Il st.
Peter from claiming the lands, but gives
the St. Paul & Sioux City a
right in il as indemnity land,
the department people have held. Mr..
Lind contends, and so argued, that neither
road should nave the lands, but that the
rule enunciated in relation to the occupied
tracts should apply to indemnity a as
well as granted lands. Mr.. Lind's argu-
ment is acknowledged by the law division
to be q strong one and Secretary Villas
was considerably impressed by it. Con
gressmeu Rice and Mcdonald were present
at the interior department with Mr.. Lind.

Vast Value of Gifts Presented to the
Pope.

The correspondent OF the Baltimore Sun
in Rome has furnished IN interesting de-
scription OF the gifts to Pope Leo on the
occasion Of his jubilee. He says:
The gifts lave come in rapidly that two
additions have already been made to the
building in which they are to be exposed.
So far 1000 cases OF articles have been
handled, and the end is notyet. Upto Jan.
ID presents to the value OF $4,000, 000,
have passed through the hands OF the
Vatican inspectors, Even the sun has
been exceeded in money. The United
States a outstriped every other country
in cash donations. This n OF testi-
flying to Pope Leo the feality OF the Catho-
lies of the United States has won the adj
miration OF the Pope, who is more pleased
with it than with that Of any other coun-
try, since it furnishes him with ready
means to spread the Catholic church
through Europe and parts OF the
far East, enterprises into which he
has thrown his heartiest energies. In pro.
portion to the number o fCatholics in vari-
Gus contributing countries. Belgium and
Hungary have sent the most gifts. Every.
thing used in the Catholic service is there
in profusion. The Irish Catholics, besides
their heavy money contributions, are rep
resented by rolls Of Irish lace, cases OF
