Cannibalism exists among all the

en- greater extent among the people
inhabiting the banks of the numerous
atfluents. During a two-months
voyage on the Ubangi river l was

cannibalism. The natives there pride
themselves upon the number of
skulls they possess, denoting the
number of victims they have been
able to obtain. saw one native
hut, around which was built a raised
platform of clay foot wide, on which
were placed rows of human skulls,

More than thirty-two thousand
public schools of the United States
have each been supplied with copy
of Webster's Unabridged Dictionary.
Think what that means. If there is
an average of so scholars to each
school, it means that constantly a
million and half of American youths
have the privilege of consulting and
studying this great work in the course
of their education. Who can esti-
mate the power for intellectual slim
ulation and development which is
thus actively at work all the time?
The pre-eminence of the American
people for general accuracy and IA
eility in the use of the English Ian
guage is not likely to be lost. Well
and truly has Noah Webster been
called "The Schoolmgster.'

Hydraulic power is now being APP
piled to the manufacture of seamless
steel boats. These boats are claimed
to be proof against the destructive
influences of sun and shower and to
be much more durable and reliable
than the ordinary wooden boats.
Though made of steel, the weight
will not be greater than that of a
wooden boat Of the same size, and the
buoyancy viii consequently BIO not
less. 1t is commended that in every
respect the seamless steel boat will
be superior to the wooden one, and
the cost of the one will not be ma
terially greater than that of the other

1t is to be hoped" says the Pitts

shall obtain an elevation of our poll

the true rivalry of parties must be as
to which is most enlightened, honest
and careful of the public rights, in
stead Of which is the most dishonest,
reckless and ready to disregard prin-

will be when the people make it a

questions more carefully than they
now do, and vote intelligently, But

Leland Stanford was born in Albany

academic education and was entered at
law school from which he graduated,
and was admitted to practice in the SUI

the great tide westward, he stopped Tor
