lucky and was entertained at dinner

ing the course of the dinner degener-
ate son of the governor talked loosely
about things in general. and among
them OF visit to Mississippi, remark

The girl from Mississippi awaited her
opportunity, and during a lull in the
conversation turned and asked the
governor IL what she had heard OF the
gentlemen of Kentucky were true. The
governor wanted to know what it was,
and the attention of the whole company
was directed to the lady's response:

Transferring Landed Property In Japan.

Japan, country in which Mexicans
must henceforth feel special inter-
est, says the Mexican Financier, 1t
having recently given the citizens Of
this republic unusual commercial priv
ileges, has set the civilized world an
excellent example in the adoption of a
new and greatly improved method of
transferring landed property. Here
after land will be transferred by regis
tration instead of by title deeds; regis
tration books will be kept at the chief
Offices of all administrative districts,
in which entries will be made fully de-
scribing all the lands in the district,
the boundaries, owners names, etc.,
and their taxable value. A person
buying land will, on the presentation
of the proper information, be regis
tered as the new owner OF the proper
ty. This method of land transference
has the advantage of the greatest pos
sible simplicity, but it is not likely to
find favor with lawyers and notaries.
This remarkable simpliication OF the
common method OF transferring landed
estates may well be investigated by the
government of this country.

In appearance the beer drinker may
be the picture of health. but in reality
he is most incapable of resisting dis
ease. A slight injury, severe cold or
a shock to the body or mind will COM
monty provoke acute disease, ending
fatally. Compared with other ine-
briates who use different kinds OF alco-
hol, he is more incurable and more
generally diseased. 1t is our observa-
ton that beer drinking in this country
produces the very lowest kind or in.
ebriety, closely allied to insanity. The
most dangerous class OF ruffians in our
large cities are beer drinkers. Intel
lectually stupor amounting almost tc
paralysis arrests the reason, changing
all the higher faculties into mere AMI
malism, sensual, selfish, sluggish
carried only with paroxisms OF ange1
senselesa and brutal. Scientific Amer

A Strain on the Organ.

A clergyman in Boston likes to tell
a story of his experience in q suburban
church some years since. He was to
preach an exchange, and SO was a
little anxious to have things go smooth
~. The pastor had left written
order of service for him, but he mo-
ticed that it contained no reference to
an organ response after the ''long
prayer So he called the aged sex
ton to the pulpit and asked him what
followed the prayer. The sexton
couldn't remember. Doesn't the or
gan have anything to doP" asked the
preacher. ..Oh," said the sexton, Il
believe the organ does give a few notes,
Just enough to take off the effect of the
prayer!" Another Boston clergyman
was once surprised, on preaching an
exchange, to find ga strain on the or
gan" upon the order as following the
prayer. When he heard the wheezy,
asthmatic tones of the instrument he
concluded it was indeed a ''strain. -

H. G. Haugen, land commissioner Of
the St. Paul Railroad, has returned
from a visit to his old home in Norway,
says Milwaukee paper.
1t is thirty years since Mr.. Haugen
eff t Norway and, of course, he found
many changes. There Is d marked inn
provement 10 the moral and intellectual
condition of the people, as we'll as in
the Industrial condition. He found in
the country districts more reading was
done. Every farmhouse contains from
one to three periodicals, including,
generally, religious paper, and an
other weekly. There is great improves
ment noticeable, also, in the matter of
temperance. There does not appear to
be one-fourth as much drinking as
there was thirty years ago. One finds
there now Good Templar organizations,
Blue Ribbon societies, and the Saliva
tion Army.
One of the chief influences in elevat.
ing and stimulating the people intel
lectually, Mr.. Haugan thinks, is the
great increase in the tourist traffic.
The country is fairly overrun with
summer tourists. 1t is estimated that
in 1888 summer tourists left $4,000, 900
in Norway, and this amount will be
fully doubled in 1889. The Norwegians
are we'll posted about America and its
institutions. One can hardly find a

large watering place, hotel and villa
on the western coast of Norway has a
brother who Is register of deeds in a
county in Iowa. American influence
is very noticeable, there being more
tourists from this country than from
England. On every steamer and in
every hotel on the coast there are
servants that can talk English and they
seem able to recognize an American at
sight. No more courteous and hospita-
BILE people can be found in the world,
Mr.. Haugen thinks, and there is nc
more enjoyable place to spend the
summer months than in Norway.

There are two wolves in India; the

them from their mothers arms. Wolves
are cunning, cruel, bloolthirsty and
very wary. They afe seldom seen in

They live in holes and raVlnes, ana are

cept when feeble, nor do hey often
attack adult human beings, unless they
take them by surprise, but children
they attack readily. They grasp at the
throat and have seen children who
have been seized and rescued, but were
found to be mortally wounded. In

cattle were killed by wolves in the

hand, there were $3.50 wolves killed.
