A Country of Cattle Raisers.

Excursions across the territory of Uru-
quay reveal nothing of very great interest
to the tourist. The landscape in parts is
pretty; some finely situated estancias are
to be seen along the banks of the Uruguay;
the vicinity Of the Rio Negro, too, is
especially interesting and characteristic of
the fertile parts of the territory, which
present a similar combination of water,
wood and rolling prairie But after all,
one soon wearies of looking at the same
kind of view hour after hour, league after
league, and province after province.
The fences of posts and wire are varied
sometimes by fences of aloes and cactus;
the eucalyptus, the poplar and other trees
are also planted to form fences, us in Chilli;
the roads, where one sees long teams of
oxen toiling along with huge wagons, are
as terrible as those of the Argentine; the
prairieS are dotted with innumerable herds
of cattle and horses; occasionally you see
two or three peasants wearing brown pom
chos riding and driving animals before
them; at long intervals you see one or two
ranches, or huts. where the peasants live.
In the Argentine the ranches appeared
miserable enough, but in Uruguay saw
many even more primitive, mere huts of
black mud, with a roof of maize straw. a
floor of beaten earth, doorway, but not
always a window. The cabins of the Irish
peasantry give some idea of the Uruguay
an rancho. It is comfortless, unhealthy.
rheumatic dwelling, less civilized than
that of the Esquimaux and more carelessly
built than the most ordinary birds nest.

Fat Women,

The appearance on the frontier of the
army of the Waganda had made it neces-
sary to transfer the court of the king of
UnJoro TO safer quarters. Suddenly a
crowd collected round the gate of the pal
ace. a cry of astonishment and admiration
burst from, the lips of all the spectators.
Borne on the shoulders of four stout
porters, litter of large dimensions and
solid framework, in which reclined a
woman of colossal proportions, with small
eyes deeply sunk in their sockets, was
dragged over the threshold of the palace.
She is one of the fattened wives of King
Tchua.
AT the courts of Uganda and Unjoro it is
considered the fashion and sign of regal
magnificence TO keep number of fattened
wives who have attained the highest de-
gree of corpulency. This article OF luxury
Is regarded as token of wealth and con-
summate refinement, and its possession
makes the royal spouse an object of envy.
This result is brought about by course of
systematic feeding adapted to time and
circumstances, until the subject" is I'M
able to stand on her feet, aud can only
move along painfully on all fours.-Zehn

Boxing as Sport.

Boxing is precisely what you make it. If
you put gloves on couple of toughs the
result will be fight filed with smuggling
and gore; if gentlemen put On the gloves
there will follow contest equally as de-
termined, with blows probably stronger,
but directed with Judgment and Skill and
received in like manner. The great differ
ence between the slugger and boxer is that
the former stands stolidly awaiting his OPP
portunity to deliver a knock out blow,
actuated with but the one idea of render
ing his opponent senseless, and trusting to
his tough hide to withstand blows.
The boxer, on the other hand, is testing
his skill with fellow clubman; his blows
are clean and strong, but he is expert
enough to avoid punishment, or, If not, his
opponent is judicious in its delivery. What
holds good so far as boxing is concerned, is
equally applicable to any other sport. If
foils are put into the hands of two of the
same class that monopolizes public boxing,
of what character will be the exhibition?
If they wrestle, will not their coarse nature
be evidenced?
1t is not the sport but the element that
pervades it which makes its character. If
men put on the gloves for the sole purpose
of punching one another into q state of in
sensibility, why put On gloves at all? The
job can surely be done much quicker with
the bare fists. Indeed, if the sole idea is to
knock ones opponent senseless, why waste
time with gloves or fists when stout stick
certainly would be much more effective?
Why not take the button off your foil in
fencing, and settle your adversary with the
first thrust? Why not throttle your man
at once in wrestling, and have done with
it? 1t is well enough to pirate of chow
shall We refine amateur boxing?" The
sport is all right; it's the muckers that
it, and VINO will drag into the
mire any game they take up.-Harper's

A MOTHERS LESSON.

Everything had gone wrong that day,

And sharply spoke TO my little boy,
Who was used to being petted.

And with questions not to trouble,
For he was little hindering thing
And made my cares Just double.
He stared In surprise. then turned away,
With his curl crowned head bent lowly.
His winsome face had a grieving look,
And his little feet went slowly.
I turned again to my vexing work,
And the room seemed very quiet,
But after all was i'll at ease
And longed for my baby's riot.

And sound of something crashing.

A child, all limp and quiet,
From the ground where the trampung hoofs
had been.
In an instant was by it.
Kneeling there in the dusty street.
Eager and faint and fearful,
While plying crowd came surging round,
Horror stricken and fearful.
But, ahi twas another mothers heart
That was broken that summer morning,
Who saw the light of her life go out
With never a word of warning.
But where was my boy7 Why, in grandma's
room
tAnd the room seemed full of glory,
Curled in her lap, with her arms clasped
round,
And listening to story.
I have learned my lesson, and now deem
1t my greatest boon and pleasure
To live for my little hindering thing"
Lest merit heart breaking leisure.

THE RIVER.

For centuries oceanward it has flowed On.
Through noorland wild, beneath the hills
great feet,
Past orchards rich, and lowered meadows
sweet,
Singing it's happy lay; the sun has shone
In silver spiendor DER it, and the moon
Has blazoned silver etchings bere and there
Upon it's glancing waters; the soft air
Has crisped it, and the winds made sullen
moan
Above it, like weird spirits seeking rest.
So flows my life through scenes Of JOY and
woe;
Around me now sweet summer flowers
blow,
And now seem the dreary deserts guest;
Yet, like the river, ever on move
To the vast ocean Of Eternal Love.

TIA. Need for Enssroed publief.y.

Special legislation has attained with us
far wider range than it ever had in Eng
land, and our problem in regulating it ia
much more difficult in consequence. Our
lobby evils have Also grown to much more
formidable proportions than theirs ever
reached, for they have had an almost unre-
stricted field for growth both in Congress
and in our state legislatures since their
first appearance in the former in 1795, until
they have attained stage of development
extraordinary in the ingenuity and intri-
cacy of its ramifications.
In most cases nowadays the lobby's real
work is no longer done in the state house
or capitol but in the primaries and nomi-
mating conventions at which the men who
are to act as the lobby's agents il the
legislative body are selected. The bar
gain for their services is made then, their
election expenses paid for them, and in
ignorance of this corrupt compact the
people elect them, supposing they are to
be the public's servants. Neither is the
work of corruption which may be neces-
sary later, when the members are In ses-
sion, done directly, as formerly, about the
capitol, but indirectly by means of ban
quets and receptions and in various other
forms of personal solicitation carried on in
quarters all safely removed from the pub
lefty of the lobby precincts.
In fact, nearly all the most pernicious
lobby work at present is done elsewhere
than st the state house or capitol. and the
only kind of publicity about it that will
be dreaded, and therefore effective, is the
kind which can be forced, as Governor
Russell, of Massachusetts,, suggests, at the
critical moment before bill is TO come up
for final passage. If at that point every
one concerned in the bills welfare-author,
sponsor, agent. corporation, lobbyist -
could be forced under oath to reveal all
that he had done for or against it, in and
out OF the halls Of legislation, there would
be publicity of incalculeble value. This,
combined with general laws removing all
the private and special legislation possible
of such classification from the control of
legislative bodies, would free US as com
pletely as England has been freed from
lobby evils.
