 A IIindo baby girl is an unwelcome addition to the family; her birth is sup posed to be no blessing, but a curse and sign of Divine wrath. When the new born baby is girl "the father gnashes his teeth and stamps his feet The mother is sorely disappointed. and al- though her tenderness may bring its sure wealth of love, she curses both herself and the child. There is, more over, n notion that women who bear only girls are sinful, and this intensities the grief.
 The latest remedy for poverty is proposed for application to New Zealand by resident there named Hewlett. MT. Hewlett founds his scheme on denial of every mans right to live" at least in New Zealand, and he proposes there fore for the government to sell Rights to Live," and deport all who did not possess such rights, or put him to work on the roads," Rights" would ''soon command certain price," sufficient to stop pauper immigration. Married peo- pie would have to buy n new right for each new child; sojourning passengers by ocean steamers would wear ''small l white rosettes." or would take out a limited right, share of ticket; people would sell their rights when they de- sired to emigrate; the state, by popu- lar vote, would create and sell new rights. MT. Howlett christens his anti poverty idea ''Tirenism.'

SANJo SANEYoSHI.
Death of Ono of tho Most Prominent
 Statesmen of Japan.

Death of Ono of tho Most Prominent
 Statesmen of Japan.
 Prince Sanjo Saneyoshi, whose death from inflammation of the lungs was lately announced, was for twenty years the prime minister of the empire of Japan. After his retirement from the office, says the Chicago Globe, he was invested with the dignity and duties of lord keeper of the seals. Throughout his active and industrious life Sanio Saneyoshi was conspicuous for the courage with which he asserted and up- held the imperial prerogatives, and for his devotion to the truest interests of the sovereign. He was Q member of the small and exclusive body of nobles att tached to the emperor's court at Kioto- the city in which the mikados dwelt, secluded and politically powerless for centuries, until by the efforts of loyal coalition the present ruler was restored in 1868 to his true position of supreme authority. Of this coalition Sanjo was m active leader, and upon the reestab- lishment of the imperial sway he was appointed to the highest post in the ad- ministration. The designation of prince was applied to him more generally by LoTeiSuorS Gnbn Oy bho SdpdhSSSS HIS precise grade corresponding more near ly with that of an English duke than any other degree of western nobility. Like all the kuge or Kioto peers, he traced his lineage to the family of the sovereign, being descendant of a younger branch of the house founded by Jimmu Tenno-six centuries before the Christian era. The rank bestowed upon him at the redistribution of titles, some years ago, was second to none in the empire, except that accorded to the monarch's blood relatives; but he owed his distinction more directly to the ser vices which he rendered the state than to the accidental advantages of this birth He was greatly respected by all who knew him, and no man enjoyed a wider popularity or possessed larger share of public confidence.

Rapidity of movement is apt to be ac- companied by sacrifice of dignity, es- pecially if you happen to have vicious dog at your .,r,.. It would be stretching point to say that our spring suits have any dignity because the term is not usually applied to inanimate objects, but if they have no dignity of their own they at least impart dignity to the wearer who in return may be said to invest them with sort of personal animation. If there is anything in this life that is positively depressing, it is tho unfortunate who is condemned to wear an unbrcoming suit of clothes. He May try to appear unconscious of the atten, ton he attracts, but he is a victim of in ward embRl russment, even though he gives no outward evidence of it. You will have no cause for embarrassment if you buy your clothing at our store, without stretching it particle, We can say that we show the nobbiest and best fitting line of Suits, Spring Overcoats and Pants to be found in this city.

A Sensational Disclosure in the Miners
 Fight for an Eight-HOur Day.
 PETsBURG, Pa., April 1.-The sensa- tion of the convention was disclosed in talk with members. It was definitely stated by the miners that the railroads of the country were back of the operators in their fight against the eight-hour move i; that the fight was not only with the miners, but would extend to railroads also, and the sooner it was throttled the better; also, that the eight-hour question might have some influence on the rates paid for coal, and for this reason, too, the railroads were opposed to it.
 The operators, also in a general way, conceded that some Western roads were concerned in supporting the fight against eight hours, but they denied that any concerted move had been made by the railroads of the country.
