by the natives. Sunday morning the sails were
again set. and the schooner when well out at

crew about as if they were buoys. The gallant
colonel stood on the deck, whence all

because people thought she was not his real

Among the wild animals in the zoological.gar
den at Garfield city, are two ferocious cata.
mounts. One of these was captured by Conduc-

CONTRA COSTA county, California, has
adopted plan for numbering and To-
eating houses in country districts that
seems to be simple and practical. Every
road in the county has a name, and
each mile is divided into ten blocks.
TO each block there are two numbers,
one for each side, and the houses
are given the same number as the block.
Should there be more than one house in
block they are distinguished by let
ters, as 10 A, 10 B, 10 G, etc. In this
way house may be readily found by
it's number, which, also, indicates its
distance from the starting point. Az
there are ten blocks to the mile, No. TO-
denotes house ten miles from the point
of starting, and SO Of any other number
Thus the location Of every house is
briefly indicated by it's number, with the
same facility as houses in cities.

o. W. Holmes ON Old Age.


II am one of those who look upon old age
cheerfully, and welcome it as season of
peace and contented enjoyment. Those are
not bitter or scaiding tears that fall from
eyes upon messy marbles The young who
left my side early IA LIES journey are still
with me in the unchanged freshness and
beauty of youth. Those who have long
kept company with me live on after their
seeming departure, were it only by the mere
force of habit; their images are all around
me, as if every surface had been sensitive
film that photographed them; their voices
echo about me as if they had been recorded
on those unforgotten cylinders which bring
back to us the tones and accents that have
imprinted them, as the extinct animals left
their tracks on the hardened sands.
.The melancholy of old age has divine
tenderness in it, which only the sad expert.
ences of life can lend sad soul. But there
is a lower level-that of tranquil content
ment and easy acquiesoence in the con6
tions in which We find ourselves, lowel
level in which old age trudges patiently
when 1t is not using its wings. l said it
wings, for no period in life is so imagina
tive as that which looks to younger peopl

ory is one in which imagination flies NOR
easily and feels itself more at home than i,

Mr.. BLA1NE's argument for South
American reciprocity, based on the idea
that South America cannot get along
without the United States, is not borne
out by the Rio Janlero correspondent to
the New York Times, at least 80 far as
Brazil is concerned. That country pro.
duces all the food it consumes, except
flour, and that it will soon be able to
manufacture. Except wooden goods, its
imports for wearing apparel, domestic
household use, and food supplies are
luxuries. 1t has to buy it's railway ma
terial and it's machinery, and these arti-
Giles consume large amount OF cash;
but, Notwithstanding large OUTLAWS fol
Injuries and necessities, the balance OF
trade is in her favor. The state of Sac
Paulo in 1889 exported $4,000, 600 more
than she imported! The population is
scarcely over 100000! The other states
cannot make such showing. No Other
community in the word can. It is coffee
that enables Sac Paulo to do this. The
state of Rio de Janeiro is less prosperous
because the coffee planters have not
made as great progress as their Sac
Paulo brethren in substituting free labor
for that of slaves, but still coffee brings
in an enormous sum Of money to the
national capital. Nearly thirty-foul
million dollars worth were shipped from
Rio de Janeiro last year.
AS it appears that wooden goods ane
machinery are what the Brazilians wan
it follows that Mr.. Blaine would favo

could he put our manufacturers In prof

NO SERVICE PENSIONS.

New York Tribune, rep: Gen. Washing
ton would not have been fully paid for his
services if he had been made president for
life. Gen. Grant would not have been fully
paid if he had been made dictator. A pay
ment which sacrifices the welfare of the ma
ton, the equal liberty of its citizens, their
equal opportunities, and its blessings for
the millions who labor and earn wages and
pay taxes, is not a payment which will ever
be asked by the patriotic union veteran. To
mortgage the earnings of sixty millions of
people all their lives in order to pay sums
to half a million or moro who are not de-
pendent and not unable or unwilling to
earn their living by honorable labor, would
not pay debt, but it would create special
class, against whom popular prejudice
could not long be restrained.
iI"The injured, the dependent, the help
less, and the children or widows of those
who have fallen have been placed beyond
the reach of want. To take sixty millions
year or more for the others who are not
in need is not to lessen the accumulation
of a few rich men, but it is to cut down the
scanty earnings of the poor. The sugar
duty, for instance, takes nearly as much
from the poorest day laborer as from any
millionaire who has family of the same
number. Not only must such duties b
continued. but others must be added, il
a service pension is to be added to othel
expenditures of government. The attempt
to carry such measure will not meet will
favor. and the danger is that it may risl
all that grateful country has already beer
willing to do for Union veterans and thei
living representatives who are in need.
