GAME KILLED IN SCOTLAND.

Two and One-half million Pounds Ev-
cry Season
From the GLASGOW Herald.l
During the present shooting season it has
been estimated that in all probability as many
as half million grouse and blackgame will
be killed and sent to market, each bird (black-
cock, ,:Rreyhen and grouse) weighing on the
average two pound, which gives us /, ,000, 900
pounds of food as the product (chiefy of the
vast heather areas of Scotland. Even at the
price of two shillings per pound the sum rep
resented will amount to 100000, which,
large as it is, is far below the money expend-
ed in shooting rents and in other ways by the
tenants Of the moors, of whom it has been
said that every brace of grouse they kill costs
them a sovereign. Estimates of the number
of partr.dges killed are somewhat difficult to
form, as the land which provides the birds is
not, like the grouse moors, separately held
and rented. In Great Britain, taking the
average of recent shooting seasons as guide,
1t may be assumed that 400, 900 partridge will
be shot, and, counting them overhead at the
modest price of Is. each, the money value
represented will touch 100000. A clue to
the pheasant supply is less dif6calt to obtain,
on account of the fact that the bird is extern
lively bred on what may be called artificial
IneS;" IN Sth6r WOrQS, tens OF GnOusanus OF
pheasants are hatched every year by barn door
fowls, the eggs being purchased from persons
who make it their business to supply them in
large quantities, having aviaries for the pur-
pose. On some estates there is also great
number of wild birds which, being carefully
watched during the breeding season, yield a
considerable crop Of chicks. Taking it for
granted, therefore, that half a million of these
birds are,annually, CONSUMED, at cost of %. Cd.
each, the total sum expended will amount to
e62. SOC, and it not too much to say that those
who supply the birds will sell them to the
wholesale dealers at considerably less than
they cost. To rear each pheasant that comes
to the gun, it has been calculated, involves
an expenditure in food and wages of little
less than 3s. Summing up these figures we
have 500, 900 grouse and blackgame Of about
the average weight of two pounds each; also
400, 900 partridges, weighing each close on
one pounds. Every one of the half million
pheasants will weigh not less overhead than
two pound. So the birds supply us with
2, 400, 900 pounds of good wholesome food
every season the breeding and purveying of
which give employment to large bodies of the
people at fair wages. When the Emillion of
rabbits and hares annually consumed are adj
ded, the totals of both weight and value be-
come, of course, much increased. These ami
mails have happily, this season been killed in

q m sINFUL TO BRTa

A lively and interesting discussion is be-
ing carried on in the English reviews as to
whether betting ia sinful or not. In some
recent remrrks the Bishop of Peterborough
advanced the opinion that betting was not
always sinful. Critics, Immediately replied
that It must always be sinful, because 1t is q
waste of money. But the Bishop replies
that it is certainly no waste to the winners,
and need not be to. the losers, when they
can afford the loss aud were compensated
for the loss by the possibility of gain or of
a certain kind of pleasure. He thinks that
when a man bets with persons who, he
knows, cannot afford to lose, he is acting
sinfully. Excessive or habitual betting, he
considers. also may be sinful, but 1t all de-
pends on the better and the manner of bet-
ting.
The matter is a complicated one and it
will probably not be settled by the present
discussion, even If all the English bishops
take part In It. But it will surprise many to
find an English bishop giving any counten-
ance to betting under any circumstances. 1t
certainly doesn't need any encouragement.
Perhaps the only man competent to give q
thorough exposition of the sinfulness and
foolishness Of betting is the man who has
put his last dollar on the favorite and lost.
He knows, for little while at least, that
betting is very sinful.

An old prisoner will be released from the
Indiana penitentiary this week who is be-
ieved to have spent more time in prison
than any man living. He has been sentenced
to this penitentiary six times-twice for
attempted rape, three times for grand larceny
and once for burglary. In it he has spent
forty years. He has served two sentences in
the Ohio penitentiary, and it is believed that
he has been within prison walls for at least
half q century. The state board of charities
has promised to provide him with liveli-
hood, brs he is eighty-three years old, and

HOW TO AVOID DEATH AND FIRE.
It appears that there is really no need of
killing anybody or burning anything by
electric light wires. Edison said that there
was not when the matter became first promi-
nent in New York, and now Herr Won Sic
mems, the famous European electrician, says
the same thing and points to Berlin in proof.
No one has ever been killed or injured by
electricity in that city, and currents of three
hundred volts pressure, which are perfectly
harmless, incapable bf inflicting death or
serious injury to any human being, are found
sufficient to give an excellent, bright and
steady light. Herr Won Siemens says that
gas and water pipes can never act as conduct
ors of dangerous electric currents from the
underground wires into dwelling houses.
These pipes, If crossed by such q current,
would at once divert 1t into the ground. It

isns frequently connect with water pipes
because they make the easiest and most per-
fect distributors--of electricity, diffusing the
current over 80 wide an area as to make it
harmless. The insulated wires for street
lamps should be placed inside of the hollow
lamp posts. For interior lighting, (houses,
stores ETC., y no high pressure current should
be used unless the construction is such that
every possible danger from contact with con-
ductors and lamps is obviated. Electric
lights and conductors will never cause fire,
unless they are carelessly constructed. A
well planned and properly constructed con-
ductor supplied with the necessary safe
guards, is entirely harmless.
Well constructed underground conduits
and low pressure currents are safe. Why

VIII the Republican majority in

do they will offend the class of sup

got the chunk of "fat'' that carried

mittee that duties, if changed at all,
shall be put higher. Protection be-
ing such good thing, they want
it-s--on@the- other hand. If
the leaders do not effect reduction
of the tariff on raw materials of GER
tain kinds they will MORALLY offend
a class of Republican manufa ;turers
in New England and elsewhere who
are very much in earnest. These
men say that high duties on wool,
pig iron, orc, coal, &c, are simply
running them and they must have
relief For long time they have
done the best they could as sound
Republicans to stand the decay of
their business, but they are getting
awfully tired of it. They have
voices, and loud ones, too, on occa-
sion. Their views have already
been given in part to the ways and
means committee. A contest be-
tween New England and Pennsyl-
mia has been developed before that
committee that is very Interesting
to the rest of the country. Being
pulled this way and that way by
conflicting interests, the committee
will evidently have difficulty in ma
king its report. Congress itself will
experience little difficulty. A sort
of escape from the dilemma may
present itself in a proposition to do
nothing with the tariff this session.
But that will satisfy nobody. Elk

lican party will join in that case
