The work has grown and improved every season; they now keep chickens, pigs and COW; the boys who come there raise hay in the old fields and plenty of vegetables in the garden and corn to feed their pigs and chickens. They are going to plant fruit this year and many of them are fitting themselves to be practical farmers. They are taken from the poor est quarters of the city and look upon the farm work, by which they have made their homo to a great extent seIf-sup- porting, as the best fun imaginable and the healthful influence, both moral and physical, of this sort of life upon boys whose only memories have been those of the tenement quarters, is not easily to be calculated.
 So far the Brothers have not been able to carry out their plan of keeping the home open for the greater part of the year as a sort of industrial and agricul tural school because of the lack of funds, and an effort Is being made to raise the necessary sum before tho end of this sea- son, go that the home may be put on a definite financial basis and 1t will be no longer necessary to return boys to their dirty and wretched surroundings just as they begin to see the beauty of country life and feel an interest in the practical education begun at the home.

A great many wealthy women belong to 1t and during the summer send in products of their garden and orchards every week. some of the stay at home members who cannot afford to make such contributions undertaking for their share of the work that the peaches and roses, lilies and strawberries shall be distributed with kind words and that personal interest which renders gift doubly valuable.
 The effect upon the patient is of more benefit than can be easily estimated. not

A Canadian Vessel Seized.

The Canadian e.,mer Black Diamond
was seized By United States authorities IN
behring sea recently The seizure has oc-
chsioned considerable excitement in Official
circles. IL appe rs that the vessel was
seized when 20 mi es from land. Mr.. Blake
says that strong feeling of resentment
and Indignation has been engendered
among the inhabitants OF British Columbia
by this wantOn outr ge, nd that meeting
of the citizens of Vic,orla is TO be held To
express their Indignation. Until the official
report is before the government no action
can be taken, and the minister of customs
accord ngly telegraphed TO the collector at
Victoria TO forward full particulars without
loss OF time.
The seizure and search of the Triumph,
aiterw rd relea ed because no sealskins
were found on board, may be more seri-
Gus matter than the seizure and detention
OF the BLACK Diamond, for it involves the
right of the United States to sci and
Sc r, h suspected vessels outside OF what is
considered 10 be the limits of jurisdict on
of the United STA es. This goy eminent
claims the right within limit not vet ac-
knowiedgcd by England, and the settlement
of the question, after ali, is TO be one OF
Jurisdiction.
