The house Of representatives has passed
the bill for the construction of three
United States penitentiaries. In these
will be confined prisoners convicted by
United States courts One will be west
of the Rocky nlQuntaips, the others prob
ably one each in the northern and south
ern states. One wise provision incor-
porated in the bill is that the prisons
must be SO constructed that the youth
full offenders shall be kept entirely sep
arate from the hardened criminals.

Cleveland has done already what some
of the large eastern cities are trying to
do, but somehow cannot succeed; that
is, changing the motive power for street
cars from horses to electricity. The
power is furnished mechanically from a
central station. Two cars are run to a
train, the trains can be run very close
together, and thus a great crowd of pas
sengers can be easily handled, even in
the busiest parts of day.

II is to be hoped that The London Times
is prompt pay, and that it will settle
speedily the little bill of S25, 200 damages
it has agreed to pay Parnell for SANDER
ing him. After that it is to be hoped
we shall hear no more about how Parnell's
mother in America is SO poor that she
goes without fire or sufficient food. Par
nell himself is poor and in debt, and The
Times money will be windfall that
only his enemies will grudge to him.

The eyes of farmers in the northern
states are on the government experiment
station in Kansas, which is trying to
solve the problem of making a success
full sorghum sugar. The Kansas state
sugar inspector reports that in 1889 there
were made in that state 1, 1893, 275 pounds,
against SOS, 275 in 1888. This shows en-
couraging progress.

The state of South Carolina appropri-
ates annually S., 1000 to manual training
school for colored children at Claflin uni
versity. Ten times as much might wisely
be spent for the same purpose, if South
Carolina could afford it. To put a good
trade into the hands Of any man, black
or white, is to arm him against foes from
within and without. More work and
less talk is what we want to settle all
questions,

Stanley, the explorer, might be called
the Man Afraid of Women. He says he
is absolutely uncomfortable when he
tries to talk to women. He confesses:
"I can't talk to women. In their pres
ence am just as much hypocrite as
any other man, and it gals me that l
must act, and be affected, and parody
myself, for no earthly reason but because
I think, with other men, that to speak
and act otherwise would not be appre-
ciated."

Acow has become a stock sensation
in N part of town. Every night at
10 o'clock a real one, alone and con-
tentediy chewing her cud, is driven
into Fourth avenue from East Twelfth
street. She ambles along up the ave,
nue. in homely country fashion. Most
of the boys and girls of the neighbor,
hood wait up for the event. They take
solid comfort and bubble over with
childish antics in watching every
10 of the COW, and she returns the
attention by mild looks from her big
and peaceful eyes and a switching of
her tail, just as in fly time.
She's goin' to do her act" said a
Fourth venue car driver, nodding
toward the COW a few evenings since.
He meant that the COW was an at
traction in a ncighboring theatre. In
the play there is a country scene, and
the cow-so strange to New Workers,
so commonplace to most other per-
sons-is making an unbounded hit. "

Exercises of strength lead rapidly to
an increase i'll the size of the thOraX.
1t is the same with exercises of speed
when they need very energetic move
ments. No exercise develops the chest
as rapidly as does running, unless it
be wrestling.
Mountaineers all have large chests,
and the Indians who live on the high
p~lateaus of the Cordillera in the Andes
have been noted for the extraordinary
size of their chests. This great devel-
opment in mountaineers is due to two
causes, which act in the same direc-
ton: frequent ascento of steep inclines,
and constant residence at great heights
at which the air is rarefied. The
climbing OF these slopes needs a great
quantity of work, which causes in
crease of the respiratory need; respi-
ration i'll a rarefied atmosphere obliges
a man to take deeper breaths in order
to supplement, by the quantity of air
hreathed, the insufliciency of its vivi-
flying properties.
Singers, with no other exercise but
singing. acquire great respiratory
power and n remarkable increase in
the dimensions of the chests.
Numerous observations prove that
it is enough voluntarily to take a GER
tain number of deep breaths every
day, to produce, in a short time, an
increase in the circumference of the
chest which may amount TO two or
three centimctcr5 .-Fcrnand Lagrans",

The balloons, always troublesome to
the crops, have of late developed a
new propensity. Mr.. II. A. Dryden,
author of ''Kloof and Karroo" 0ong-
mans, says: Some years back some
one baboon having come across the dead
body of a mich goat, discovered and
extracted the mich bag, and, like Eve,
saw that it was good His discovery
must have been quickly impaired to
his fellows, for the Karroo farmers be-
gan to find their mich goats ripped up
by these brutes solely for the sweet
and luscious milk. The balloons, too,
becoming accustomed to butchering,
presently turned their attention to the
flesh, and will now destroy kids-and,
if they can manage it, goats-for their
flesh alone" AS the author remarks,
this modern development of a carniv-
orous habit coincident with the in
crease of flocks is analogous to that OBJ
served in the sheep killing parrot of
New Zealand. Public Opinion.

DENVER, Col, March Ga special to
the Times from Wheeler, Col, says that
one of the greatest catastrophies in the
way of a snowslide occurred last night
five miles east of this place on what is
known as the Wall cut on the high line
division of the South Park railroad, in
which two passenger trains came near
being wiped away. The train going west
was running in two sections. The first
section got stuck in the snow at Wall cut,
and section No. . came up with two
powerful engines to pull out the first sec
ton. Roadmaster p. Dobbins was stand
ing on the head engine superintend-
ing the work, when an avalanche of snow
came down without warning, sweeping
him awav He was completely covered
by the flying mass of snow and carried a
distance of several thousand feet, entirely
across the len Mile river and onto the
Rio Grande tracks, where he managed to
extricate himself with great difficulty.
| One OF his knees was badly sprained, but
he was otherwise u%ninjured. A tremen-
dous volume of snow piled itself entirely
over the four engines, putting out the
fires and completely buried the mail car
and flanger. The weight of the snow
crushed in the front of the mail cars, in
which were Mail Agent George Roberts
and Baggagemaster n. Mason of Denver.
1t took son time to extricate the men.
Neither of them were injured. Fireman
Culbertson was badly scalded.

y st. Paul merchant gives the fol
lowing to a Pioneer-Press reporter as
a reason why he cut a piece of goods

and the other at low price: Twenty

general store in Kalamazoo, Mich.

social leader. In forty-fve minutes ii
came back from the house with an or.
der to change it. What does that head
salesman do Lat shake the tea out of
the brown ll.er, do it up in silk tea
paper, tie it with a colored cord and
send it back to the lady. 1t staid
this time, and she afterward told me
that that was the kind of tea she al
ways wanted to fill her orders. That,

A KNOTTY PROBLEM.
What Shall Be Done With the
ApaChes?
Gen, Howard Favors the Fort
Sill Reservation. .
But the Indian Committee is
Undecided.

Gen. Howard on the Indian Transfer.
WASHINGTON, March GA few days
ago Gen Howard addressed a letter to
Chairman Perkins of the house commit
tee on Indian affairs in relation to the
proposed transfer OF the Apache Indians
from Mount Vernon barracks to Fort
Sill, which the committee is considering.
Gen. Howard expressed himself to the
effect that he thought that inasmu UGH as
Gen. Miles had had his say before the
committee, 1t should give Gen. Crook an
opportunity to be heard. Gen. Howard
also expressed the opinion that the In
dians should be removed from their pres
ent location either to Fort Sill or the
Cherokee lands in North Carolina, but his
judgment was hat Fort Sill was the bet
ter place. Chairman Perkins made the
following reply:
Il am in receipt of your letter. In re-
ply | have to inform you it is not the de-
sire of the committee on Indian affairs to
become a party in any way to the contro
versy or feeling that seems to exist be-
tween the friends of Gen. Crook and the
friends of Gen. Miles. Some things
have already been said before our com
mittee that had no relevancy to the
questions hat we desired to consider, and
SO far as the committee is concerned will
have no influence in our deliberations
We have Gen. Crooks recommendations.
and nave also been addressed by mem
bers OF his staff and by those who believe
with him that the Apaches can be safely
confined on the Fort Sill reservation, and
we have heard Gen. Miles and delegates
and representatives from New Mexico and
Arizona, who think it would be unwise to
remove the Indians to Indian Territory.
The desire of the committee is only to
do what is fair and right in the matter
what seems to be for the good of these
Indians and at the same time fair to the
people of the territories. l believe much
of the fear that is entertained by the
settlers of New Mexico aud Arizona is
exaggerated. But while considering the
good of the Indians | think it is but
right 10 take into consideration the wishes
and interests of the thousands of settlers
who are living in these territories and
who have their homes there, and who
assert since the removal of the Apaches
they have enjoyed their first security as
settlers in these territories. Whether
their fears are exaggerated, or not, | think
it is the duty of the committee to realize
they exist, and under such circumstances
it becomes quite important FOR US to de
termine whether, for the good of those
Indians, we will to some extent, at least,
sacrifice the comfort and prosperity of the
people OF Arizona and New Mexico. Old
Mexico is also opposed to their removal
to the Fort Sill reservation, but the com
mittee has not yet determined what action
to take in the matter.

Both Prisoners Held.

NIAGARA FALLS, Ont, March Gu
the murder case today Burchell was ar
raigned. A Grand Trunk brakeman
swore he saw the prisoner on Monday at
Eastwood station, near the scene of the
murder. His trousers were turned up at
the bottom and his shoes covered with
mud. The magistrate then remanded
the prisoner to the Welland jail for seven
days. Mrs. Burchell was arraigned and
the magistrate informed her he had
been instructed by the attorney general of
Ontario to remand her for seven days.
Her council protested against the aitor-
ney generals Interference and Mrs.
Burchell wept. A consultation was held
and the prisoner allowed to remain here
until morning, under police surveillance,
to enable her counsel to interview the at.
torney general and see if bail could be ar.
ranged. Mrs. Burchell is looked upon
by the people as being an innocen- wo-
man and having been duped into a mar
rage with Burchell.

After seventeen years OF fruitless in
vestigation, there is every reason to be-
lieve that one of the murdercrs Of Gen.
Prim has been discovered. A native of
Madrid named Ramon Martinez y
Pedragosa. who died recently in the
hospital at Buenos Ayres, authorized
the chaplain to publish his cor fesSion.
He also told the priest that one Of his
acccmplices was in Mexico. This news
agrees with the version given in Madrid
in 1874 by Signor TamberIik, WHO was
an intimate friend of Gen. Prim. Nhc

CLEVELAND, March 6.-The final
meeting of the National league schedule
committee was held today. The only
business transacted was the adoption of a
ten club schedule, which was forced upon
the organization by the refusal of the In
dianapolis club to retire. Each club
plays fewer games than in former years,
and the basis of individual championship
Is figured on seven games in each city
with different organizations. The season
opens April &c and ends September 80.
The eastern and western clubs open the
season playing in their respective sections
and afterwards interchange. Double
