A REPORT presented to the Anthropo- logical society in Munich compares different countries according to the number of children, middle-aged and old people they contain. It is shown that France has the largest proportion of people over seventy years of age, the number being AS to the thousand. Nor way has 40, Sweden B, Switzerland 30, Great Britain go, Germany 27 and the United States 20. This does not indi- cate, however, that people live to be 80 much older in France than in the United States, but that we have more young people in proportion. Thus, while France has only 27O children under fifteen years of age, to the thous and, the United States has 391, while Australia, a newer country still, has 396,

REPRESENTATIVE CHAPMAN, of Michi- gan, who is now in Washington, says the democrats of Michigan propose pressing the claims of Hon Don M. Dickinson upon the next nominating convention, and that it isn't a move ment intended merely as compliment to that gentleman, but is the result of much consideration on the part of men who believe that he possesses all the at tributes of successful presidential can didate, one who could carry Michigan beyond a shadow of a doubt.
 BISMARCK, out of health, deserted and beset by enemies in his old age, might now exclaim with Cardinal Wolsey, "If had served God as diligently as I have done the king, he would not have given me over in my gray hairs" Bismarck has spent much of his life stirring up antagonisms against himself. That he did it to further the interests of the German empire makes no difference with the personal result to himself. Hatred and enmity must finally react upon the head of him who creates them. It is the natural law from which even the intellectual giant cannot escape.

The Greatest Number Yet Sent Out and the
Athletes Are Scholars.
NEW HAVEN, May 30.-The annual pub
LEGATION of the senior class in the academ-
ical department at Yale, known as ssThe
Yale Glass Book contains some items of
general interest. The rapid growth of the
college is shown by the size of the class,
which will graduate with 1877 men, surpass-
ing the largest previous class by 81. Twenty
States are represented and two foreign
countries New York sent the largest num-
Der and Connecticut the next.
The facts furnished by this class go to
show that scholarship and athletics are not
antagonistic. The proportion of the class
on the appointment list is larger than that
of any previous class while the record of
the class in athletics in general has never
been equaled at Yale. The captain of the
University crew, the catcher on the Uni
yersity nine, the center and half-back on
the University eleven, the intercollegiate
champion in pole vaulting, and the hurdler
who holds both the intercollegiate and
worlds record are all men of high scholar
ship. Ninety-three of the class are church
members, 81 propose to study law, AZ go
into business, II study theology, 10 medi-
cine. and 18 expect to teach.

tea" used to promote legislation is not
of the malt order. 1t is not cheerful
picture, as drawn from Mr.. PoRrER'S
figures, that five men in Washington
out of the 100 need running in by the
police where there is one such in
Milwaukee. If this lamentable contrast
is due to the use of whisky and strong
drinks in place of the mild Milwaukee
irrigant, a message from the president
TO congress on the subject might be in
order. In his last one he intimated that
there was local need of something of
the Utah regimen for the promotion
OF chastity. Intemperance and disre-
gard of this virtue are understood to be
somewhat related. The absence of one
essential virtue leads to painful pre-
sumptions. Washington is political
community. Is this police record, as
afforded by the census bureau, an evil
dence that politics leads to the police
station? The average percentage of
arrests in all the large cities is ass. to
$40 in Washington. Should not the
capital be removed to one of the temper
ate, beer-absorbing cities of the West?

Above the snow-bound stretch of meadow

And on the plain the little hamlets lie
In clusters on the white, wide winter

And round the beard the merry children
sing.
Beneath the mistletoe and holly red,
Until the midnight bells of Christmas ring.
Then Santa Claus. from mystic lands afar.

With prancIng steeds and wondrous gilded

Adown the chimney each email stocking

And still the hours wane far within the

Now in and out within the rosy hight.

Milwaukee does not, of course, expect
TO get the national convention, but it
does we'll to look about and suggest
some of the local features that it can
claim as among its special attractions.
In the compilation furnished by the
local press beer properly stands at the
head. 1t would be churlIsh to question
its fluent leadership III this respect, nor
should there be any displacement of
the quality. But the point very prop
erly relied upon to attract the favorable
attention of the Democrats of the ma
ton is the evidence of sohrietv
and public order afforded in
recent census bulletin. Milwaukee
has over 1,400 saloons running wide
open seven days and nights in the week,
and yet this bulletin gives it the lowest
percentage of arrests for drunkenness
of any city in the land that has over
10000 population. The per capita in
Milwaukee is LIS, while Washington.
the capital of the nation and one of the
most rigid in its administrative deport-
ment, is given STA. the highest OF any
large city in the land. The contrast is
striking, and the explanation not quite
apparent. 1t is insisted that it is not
found in any laxity of police service
n the beer city. There is no
reason to suppose that the po-
lice have obliquity of vision from
consumption of the staple manufacture.
1t may be conceded that Milwaukee
compares favOrably with st. Paul in
sObriety and good order. But WHY
should that city afford such a notable
contrast with Washington? Several
suggestions are thrown out, one is that
the universal beverage of Milwaukee is
beer, while that of Washington is more
fiery and alcoholic. 1t will be remem-
bered that when the Lake City seeks i'll
fuence at Washington the first thought
is to ship a train load of beer When
CARNEGIE, the great manufacturer,
would mellow things there, he sends
whisky by the barrel. Mr.. NOR

pert artists to mix drinks. The ''cold

For the Christmas Globe.
Christmas. Oh, wondrous day of gloryl
OF thy majesty l sing;
Exalted is thy name and story
From the birth of Christ, the king
(Whose name has echoed down the ages,
And in triumph has been praised)
Still yet the festal RACES
As once III ancient days
Where in the courts of castles old,
The guests of barous played.
Robed in garments decked with gold;
By gems refulgent made.
They danced around the mistletoe
Fixed on the Portal fast;
Each laddie kissed his lassie who
Beneath its foliage passed.
Thus in merriment so gay,
They burned the log OF yule;
They danced TIL morning dawned in day,
And drank from Bacchus bowl.
SO fling the portal wide!
Let's celebrate this dav;
Cast all your hopes and fears aside
Let hearts be biithe and gay.
Wen gatherin to feast our host
And drink his health at will;
Let all respond with merry toast
And wish him honor still.
Then merry Christmas songs Wen sing,
And tell the story old;
OF Christ the Advocate, the King,
The Shepherd of his fold
While bells ring out in music strong,
From many a steeple tower,
TIL guests. in merriment and song,
Have Wearied of the hour
When all at length in rest do lie,
sleep, and in vision dream
That from Greenland's radiant sky
Majestic mountains CLEAN.
Here fairies dance in flocks,
And round their SUBMITS play;
They crouch behind the rocks
In hide and seek SO gay.
When, 10 ! stand in awed surprise,
For DER the mountain crest,
Old Santa Claus then flies
With steeds, six deer abreast
Laden with merry Christmas joys,
For Young and old, for girls and boys.
Borne on in winged flight.
He passed the mountains whirled:
To climb the cnimneys through the night
With presents for the world.
This vivid dream is DER,
And Christmas day has passed:
To cone again, hope, once more,
May il not be our last,
But may we live till goodly age
Has hoary hairs east 0 er our brow;
May he be crowned a martyred sage
Who he er forsakes his Christian VOW.

will he be prosecuted and convicted?
Why is 1T that when a poor man steals
he is thief, while rich man is only
insane?-Duluth Tribune.
The district attorney is right There
is no sense i'll taking young Field to
White Plains to have his sanity inquired

was one OF that artists haDpiest
successes in portraiture. Yet, for all
that, 1t is very likely that the nan who
painted it because of the artistic quail
tiles of his subject, rather than because
OF commercial bargain with him, will
freight it down to New York at his own
expense and incumbrance.
The GutherZ picture is canvas about
5XS feet. Miss Stickney, mounted upon
horse, peers into space from the

1t is one of GutherZ'S grandeSt achieve
ments, and it is to be regretted that
ParlSianS and not ourselves should be
the first to view and Judge it.
The significance of these matters is
self-evident. As slight instance of
how our reputation for lack of appTe-
ciative qualities is spreading. take the

and Senet. Col. Grass is a keen con
noisSeur and all apt Judge of pic
torIal values. Yet Minneapolis took
only a side glance at his pictures and
then went Oh specializing in flour
and sawdust. st. Paul, although in

and those protesting an admiration for
the bruSh-print of genius who failed to

the neglect. This Iethargy will rouse
itself some day, however, and this in
nOcuOuS desuetude, as Cleveland would
say. will rot into fumes OF fever, in
which the public mind and private
purse will sprain itself in Quenching the
thirst for the forgotten element of our
higher civilization.

AID TO THE RUSSIANS.

If a personal and despotic govern
ment cannot reach the inhuman
wretches reported in the recent dis
patches from Russia as selling grain at
high prices for the suffering districts
and then filling the bags for shipment
with grass and sand, except at the top,
there may be one useful field for II.
The information, however, is lacking
that the influential and thrifty swim
dlerS were promptly given mcrited ret
ributiOn, although a starving wretch
who stole a few turnips was given
a life sentence to penal servi-
tude. Perhaps. as In some other cOun-
tries, the high mucks who steal under
DISCUSSES have immunitieS unknown to
the fellows, who do the small and vulgar
work. 1t is not surprising that corrup-
ton is widespread among the officials
and the starving are forced to bribe
some of them 10 obtain any share in
the relief supplies. The compulsory
immigration of this class to Siberia az
cOmpanied by those st. Petersburg
merchants who filled the contribution
boxes with bits of tin and paper, could
be applauded. 1t is evident, however,
that the government is giving earnest
attention to the condition of the suffer
ing. and the needs are so great as to de-
mand the assistance of all Christendom.
The United States should be among the
foremost in the work.
