Dupglinson. Governor Geary's private secre-
rary Mr.. Dunglinson testified that this was
present from Mr.. Evans which would show
that Mayor Grant, of New York, was not doing
a strictly original act when he made present
of So 600 to Richard Croker's little daughter.
But Mr.. Evans was not yet satisfied. His
appetite for plunder grew with that it fed
on" and in 1870 Governor Geary again ap.
pointed him agent TO collect claims against the
Government. He filed 81, ,053, 79S. and in 10
months having employed five clerks, at ex-

THE American cruisers in Behring Sea
have lost no time in carrying out the
orders issued from Washington in regard
to sealing in those waters. The British
Columbia poachers are being driven out
and each day brings the news of some Of
them returning to Victoria. In most
cases the sealers promptly leave the sea
when warned. The Marvin, however,
was we'll armed and at first refused to
obey the order. The officers of the
United States cruiser Rush promptly
took the arms and ammunition from the
schooner and towed her to Oonalaska.
where twenty-one of the crew were
placed on the prison-ship Al-ki and kept
for two days, when they were turned
over to the British man-of-war Nymphe,
the commander of which ordered them to
proceed to Victoria. This looks like bus
mess. 1t is probable that the sea will
soon be cleared Of poachers and the seals
viii get rest while the dispute over the
question of their indiscriminate taking is
being decided by arbitration.

The Ruggedest Path In Life

If it be but irradiated by good health, is
shorn of half its distastetul features.
Hosts of distinguished men and women
have uttered regrets for a past when
young, full of vigor and hope, though
battling with obstacles that seemed well
nigh insurmouutable, their pulses beat,
their veins tingled with the glow of joy
Gus health. Chronic invalids, would you
once more feel that glow, would you-as
OF yore-sleep, eat, digest perfectly? Then
use, with persistence, Hostetter's Stom-
ach Bitters, foremost among tonics, most
reliable of vitalizing medicines. Nerv-
BUSINESS, dyspepsia, hypochondria, a loss
of appetite and sleep, this grand repara-
tive of debilitated physique and i'm
paired constitutional vigor speedily pre-
walls against. Rheumatic and neuralgia
ailments, malarial disorders, kidney
troubles, and the growing infirmities OF
age, are successfully combatted by this
benign specific.

If, as is reported, President Carnot of
the Republic of France has resolved to
return to Russia the battle flags captured
in the Crimean war, as an acknowl-
edgment of the honors shown the French
fleet last week by Russian officials, it will
be a most significant incident. Nations
do not return trophies taken in. battle,
except for strong political reasons. Even
where nations have been at peace for a
score of years, or more, the return of
war trophies is not made. The reason
for return must be and always is
strong one. AS a rule they are worth
more in the hands of the captors as in
centives to valor in future wars than as
means to fraternal kindness. France
must be anticipating very close relations
with Russia.

fearing that unless they get here at once
the gates will be closed entirely. There
is no doubt that large proportion of
those who have arrived lately are of an
undesirable class, though possibly not of
the criminal or pauper element so largely
as in the past. 1t behooyes the Govern
ment officials at every port of entry in
the United States to enforce the new i'm
migration laws with the utmost severity,
and it is to be hoped that the report for
the next fiscal year will show decided
falling off in the immigration from some
of the countries named, for it is an undis-
puted fact that the better class of people
from those countries do not come to this
country at all.

STARTLING FIGURES.

The review just issued by the Bureau of
Statistics of the Treasury Department, in
regard to the foreign commerce and inn
migration of the United States during the
fiscal year ending June 30th, contains
some information that will be a surprise
10 those who have believed that the more
stringent enforcement of the immigration
laws has caused falling off in the immi-
grafton to this country. The review
shows that there has been a large increase
in the volume of immigration into the
United States during the last fiscal year
The total number arriving was 800, ,456, as
against 45l, ,2l9 during the year of 1890, an
increase of I04,277. This increase was
largely from the following countries:
Italy, 1854; Austro- Hungary, 14,s6l;
Germany, 2l, ,122; Russia, including Pol
and, 2s.245.
It is evident from these figures that the
prospect of more stringent enforcement
of our immigration laws has caused for
eigners to rush in as fast as possible,

been unable to establish clearly the real
