CANADIANS CHARACTERIZED.
A Distinct Type of People Neither English
Nor American.

had been told that the Canadians are

could convey more erroneous impression.
portion of the people have strong English
traditions and lOyalties to institutions, but
in manner and in expectations the Cana
dians are scarcely more English than the
people of the United States. They have
their own colonial development, and one
can mark already with tolerable distinct
ness Canadian type which is neither En-
glish nor American. This is noticeable
especially in the women. The Canadian
girl resembles the American in escape from
purely conventional restraint and in self
reliance, and she has, like the English, a.
well-mOdulated voice and distinct articula-
ton. In the cities, also, she has taste in
dress and th certain style which we think
action certain modification has gone on,
due partly to climate and partly to greater
social independence. 1t is unnecessary to
make comparisons. and only note that
there is Canadian type of woman.
But there is great variety in Canada, and
in fact remarkable racial diversity. The
man Of Nova Scotia is not at all the man of
British Columbia or Manitoba. The Scotch
in old Canada have made distinct i'm
preston In features and speech. And it
may be said generally in eastern Canada
that the Scotch element is a leading and
conspicuous one in the vigor and push of
enterprise and the accumulation of fortune.
The Canadian men, as one sees them In Of
fetal life, at the clubs, in business, are
mar kedly vigorous, stalwart race. well
made. of good stature, and not seldom
handsome. This physical prosperity
needs to be remembered when we
consider con EN-. the rigorous eli climate , and ID
have at least one advantag-that of breed
ing virile men. The Canadians, generally,
are fond of outdoor sports and athletic
games. OF fishing and hunting, and they
give more time to such recreations than we
do. They are little less driven by the
business g0ad. Abundant animal spirits
tend to make men good natured and little
quarrelsome. The Canadians would make
good soldiers There was time when the
Canada, and there are still places where
they do not put water enough in their grog;
but temperance reform has taken as strong
hold there as it has in the United States.
The feeling about the English is illus
trated by the statement that there Is not
more aping of English ways in Montreal
and Toronto clubs and social life than in
New York, and that the English supercil-
lousness or condescension as to colonists,
the ultra-English manner, is ridiculed in
Canada, and resented with even more
warmth than in the United States. The
amusing stories of English presumption up
on hospitality are current in Canada as
well as on this side. All this is not incon-
sistent with pride in the empire loyalty to
it's traditions and institutions. and even a
considerable willingness flor human nature

decorative titles. But the underlying fact
is that there is distinct feeling of nation
ality, and it is increasing.

HUMAN FOUNDATIONS.
Strange Notions That Prevail Among the Bare
barous Peoples of Asia.

London and China Telegraph.
A strange notion prevails in the East re-
garding the value of human bodies as
foundations for public buildings. The be-
lief is not confined either TO race, creed or
locality. When the last mail left an
idea had got abroad among the
coolie population that number OF
heads was required in laying the founda-
tions of some government works at SiDga-
venturing out after nightfall, lest the ad-
venturer should be pounced on and de-
capitated. One might have thought the
ways of the Singapore government were
better understood. That such ideas should
get abroad about the requirements of gov
ernment, even in China or AMMAN. is Curl
Gus enough, but the British government OF
the straits above all others! Yet there it is;
the natives had got it into their heads than
the government stood in need of 960 human
heads TO insure the safe completion of cer-
tain public works, and that $50 of the num~
Der were still wanting.
A very similar panic occurred at Shang-
hal In connection with the building of tho
Cathedral. The idea got abroad that tho
municipal council wanted a certain number
human bodies to bury beneath the founda-
ton of that edifice; and a general dread OF
venturing out after nightfall-especially OF
getting past the Cathedral compOund-pre-
vailed for weeks, with all kinds of varia-
tions and details. A similar notion was
said to be at the bottom of the riots which

the missionaries for choice-were accused
of wanting children for some mysterious
purpose; and the mob seized and deoapi-
tated in the public streets nine Korean Of
ficials, who were said TO have been parties
to kidnapping victims to supply the want.
This, however, seems more akin TO the curl.
Gus desire for infantile victims, which was
charged against missionaries in the famous
Honan proclamation that preceded the
Tientsin massacre. Sometimes children'S
brains are wanted for medicine; sometimes
their eyes are wanted to ocompoundmaterial
for photography.
A case came to us, however, last autumn,
from Calcutta, which is so exactly on all
fours with this latest manifestation that it
would almost seem the idea had travelled
like an epidemic and broke ont afresh in q
congenial atmosphere. -Four villages of the
Dinagep0re district were convicted last
September of causing the death of two
Cabulis and injuring q third, for the pre-
else reason that they had been kidnapping
children to be sacrificed in connection with
the building of railway bridge over tho
Mahanuddi. A rumor had got abroad that
such proceedings were In contemplation,
and when these Cabulis came TO trade with
the villagers they were denounced as kids
napers and mobbed. Two We're killed 0uer
right, their bodies being flung into the river,
while the third, being severely handled,
escaped by hiding himself.

CHICAGO, March 3.-A break of 4aac occurred

No special news was received to cause the de-
cline, and the depression was the result of lack
or support. The speculative offerings were heavy,
considerable '.long" wheat coming on the mar
ket besides which there may have been some
"short" selling. Every effort to sell brought
lower prices, there apparently being no opposi-
ton to check the decline. The "short' interest
evidently had been pretty well covered, and the
parties who have been identified with the "bull"
side, while not known to have sold freely to-day,
evidently had done so the past week or more
From surface indications, it is surmised that the
trade is getting out OF May and shifting into
July, but there is still great deal Of
uncertainty regarding the market, and
operators are naturally not over sanguine
