Railroad accidents in the United
States during the last twelve mouths
have caused the death Of 900 per-
sons and the injury of 1,745. The
estimated loss Of railroads from this
source is put at s10,000,000 or about
80 per cent. of the total net earnings
of railroads from their passenger
business. 1t is stated ON good au-
thority that only 40 per cent. Of
these accidents were due to detects
in railroad trucks, and only 6 per
cent to other faults of roadway.
This leaves nearly SO per cent. OF
>all the railway accidents of year
attributable to negligence in opera
ton. 1t seems that better system
aud more scientific management are
the great needs of the railroad situa-
ton. The scrt Of enterprise which
expends itself on fast schedules and
elegant accommodations is all right,
but the public has right to demand
that the best efforts OF railroad
managers shall be directed to insure
as far as is practicable, the safety Of
travel.

lei with our coast. Another range
crosses it from Newfoundland to
Ireland, on the top. of which suns
the submarine cable. The ocean is
thus divided into three great basins,
no longer 'unfathomed Depths The
tops OF these sea mountains are two
miles below q sailing ship, and the
basins, according to Reclus, almost
i've miles. These mountains are
whitened tor thousands of miles by
a tiny, creamy species of she'll, lying
as thickly on their sides as frost

The following legend, which pro
fesses to tell how that valuable PLAN
maize, or Indian corn, was given To
the Indians, has much more purpose
than a story from the Arabian
Nights" 1t was related by Nabunwa
to MIR. George Johnston. When the
Ottawas were driven from the beauti,
full Manitoulin Islands, in Lake Hu.
ron, by the Iroquois, their magician,
Mass-wa-we-in-ini, remained behind.
One day Mass-wa-we-in-ini was
crossing a wide plain when he was &C
costed by a little man with q feather on
his head.
Where are you going1" asked the
little man, cheerily, and invited the
magician.to smoke with him. Pray, >
said he, as they smoked, 'wherein
does your strength lie7n
My strength" answered Mass-wa-
w~e-in-ini, is that of the human family,
no more"
I'VE must wrestle, said the man of
the red feather. IF you should make
me fall, you will say to me, L have
thrown you, Wa-ge-me-na.'"
So they wrestled, and for a time the
strife was doubtful, and Mass-wa-we-
mini feared for himself, the little man
was so active, but at length he threw
him to the ground.
Il have thrown you, Wa-ge-me-nai"
he cried, and at that instant his oppo-
nent vanished into the earth.
On looking at the spot where the
little man disappeared, Mass-wa-we-in-
mi discovered a crooked ear of mon
DAMN Indian CORN lying on the
ground, with the usual red, hairy tas-
sci at the top. While he gazed he
heard a voice say, "Divest me Of my
covering and reveal my body. Sepa.
rate me into parts and as me upon
the plain. Return then in one moon"
Mass-wa-we-in-ini obeyed these di-
rections, and when, at the expiration
of the moon, he came again to the
wrestling place, he found the spikes
and blades of young corn, and where
he had thrown the cob pumpkin vines
were growing luxuriantly.
A voice addressed him from the corn
field: Mass wa-we-in-inil you con-
quered me. Had you not done SO,
your life would have been forfeited
Victory has crowned your strength,
and henceforth my body shall give
nourishment to the human race
Thus the Ottawas received the gift
OF corn, and they have ever been noted
for their fine crops of this grain, and
from their custom OF trading in Indian
corn this tribe was called Ottawas.-

said: "a curious attempt to shirk impris-
onment by substitution came before the
Paris assizes this afternoon. NJ. Dubusc,

ment for having held nce on his

a month at his discretion. At the end
of this period he receives a polite letter
from the prison governor requesting him
to call at his earliest convenience in or

NJ. Dubusc during this respite found a
pauper, who had just been discharged
from Nanterre, and induced him to 20
to prison for 90 francs. Boislache-
this was the man's name-went of to
the Petite Roquette, introduced himself

Hero, Too, Is nm Important Matter for
Your Consideration.
All natural water courses run
through the lowest land; and yet 1t Is
often true that the banks of streams
are higher than much of the land ly-
ing at little distance from thom. In
the case of large rivers care is takon to
keep tho stream from overilowins the
banks, but we know of small creeks
running through valuable land where
short-siglited farmers, instead of trying
to keep tho water in the stream, direct
it to their neighbor's land. We do not
think their intention is to iniuro their
neighbors. They verify think they are
drying their own land. And, in special
instances such is the case. We know
two large farmers, A and Il. Tho farms
are adjacent, and both are on the same
creek; but the creek runs for quito
distance through AS farm, and in fact
through three or four other farms be-
fore it reaches BIS farm. cut ditch
several hundred,rods long, in hopes OF
draining his land. A, instead of drain
ing into the creek, runs his water into
BIS ditch, and though his house is not
more than forty rods from the creek he
has constructed q sewer from his house
to BIS ditch and turns all his sewage
into it. A claims that the land falls as
it recedes from the creek, and that he
has a right to let the water run where
it will. "But not into ditch dug for
my own use," says A. And he filled up
portion of his ditch and constructed
another one on higher land into which
he turns AS sewage, and uses it to
irrigate his meadow.
Is it fact then. that natural creek
does not run through the lowest land?
Certainly not; the trouble in the case
alluded to is simply that tho creek is
fall of impediments. 1t is very crooked.
and there are numerous logs, roots and
branches in the stream, and for quite q
distance on AS farm the creek in sum-
mer is almost damned up with water
cress. This is the reason why the creek
looks higher than the land few rods
back. The water in the creek is damned
up and wherever it has q chance it over
flows its banks, and several farmers on
this same creek are unwise enough to
cut bitches to carry the water from the
creek on to their neighbors' land. The
present year four or five Industrious
small farmers who raise garden crops on
mucky land had all their crops de.
stroyed by water which neighbor
above them had diverted from the
creek. Thisis not only illegal, but it is
foolish. The only remedy is to clean out
the creek by removing the logs and other
impediments, and cutting off the sharp
angles with a little judicious digging,
to deepen and widen the creek whore il
is specially needed. The water, If con-
fined to the creek, will, during the
floods of spring, do much toward clean
ing and deepening the creek. AS it is
now, comparatively little water runs
through the creek. The water has been
diverted from the creek, and floods many
acres of good land, and converts it into
an unhealthy and profitless swamp
