gate the nature Of the country from whence
IL derives its sustenanco.
To the sportsman this is indeed para
disc. Lakes and bayous Astounding In
game fish, forests haunted by bear, deer,
wild turkeys, ducks, squirrels, etc, offer
almost irresistible inducements, and many
visitors gladly avail themselves OF such
chances each year.
And now a word or two ms to the poo
pie. The records OF the Justices Of the
Peace show that Arcola is an exceptionally
law-abiding town. Trouble OF any kind
is almost unknown. There il in
deed a general upward tendency among
the Arcolians. The stranger who passes
through the town on a busy day will view
with amazement the life and activity on
all sides, while very brief acquaintance
will demonstrate that the people are pro-
gressive in their instincts and altogether
metropolitan in their ideas. The warmth,
genality aud refinement OF hospitality
met with here are especially to be noted.
The writer, during his brief visit, has
been received with so much kindness and
courtesy both by known friends and by
those whose names he cannot recall, that
an accurate list OF all TO whom ho is under
Obligation would be o modest directory Of
itself. Unhappily, 1t is not in his power
| 20 present such an array. Let one and all
accept his heartiest Acknowledgements.
Newspaper articles on Southern towns
are somewhat apt TO degenerate into long
rctinuo OF individual oulogics, which, how
ever we'll intended, often cause disparag-
ing comment, and never fail 10 detmct
from the value OF the article itself. The
writer desires TO avoid this. Ills aim has
been TO depict Arcola Ms II is and as Il will
be, believing that he could show disregard
for the inhabitants In no stronger light
than in a faithful record OF the rapid rise,
natural advantages aud the glowing future
OF the bright little town. Il. q. ID. Nj.

Victoria is an Australian colony with
the size and the population Of Kansas in
1880, or an area of $1,000 square miles
and population of 200, 900. But in
stead of letting corporations build the
railroads and giving land away to get
them to do this, Victoria has kept its
land and built its own railroads. The
result is ttiat this thriving little comm,m
ity of about / 200, 900 souls, or the popu-
lation of Philadelphia, had last year an
income of S41 900, 900, and of this sum
SIG, 800, 900 was in the shape of profits
on the Statc railroads Seven years ago
the income from the railroads was only
5000, 900; in 1867 it was Sl2, POS, :
600 and for the year just closed it has
grown up to nearly double the income Of
seven years ago, and, as no one can build
roads but the State, and the State is an
cnterprising builder and good manager.
the profits on the railroads will in time
pay all the expenses of the Government.
In addition, Victoria owns not only the
postofiice, as the people do here, but all
the express and telegraph business, and
the profit on these for this wise, thrifty
little State last year was So, 140, 600.

The Yankees of Asia, as the Japs are
!eAetimcs called, have been more tor
mentcd with the disastrous antics Of the
elements this year than even the Amcri
cans. Japan has had series OF earth
quakes and floods and tidal wave has
added hundreds more to the thousands
already killed by falling mountains and
rivers pushed out of the place. The his,
tory Of this year is one of disaster all
over the globe. Almost no nation has
escaped, but Japan has suffered perhaps
more than any other when her area is
considered. There is feeling of warm
friendship for Japan in the United States,
which makes Americans regret the cal
amitics that have ovcrtakcn this inter
csting people.
