Attorney Henry G. Dillon of the
kaweah Colony says that it is mistake
to suppose that the colonists are cutting
down CALIFORNIA; big trees. He says
no human agency can cut down Sc
quota gigantea, and no sawmill in this
country could slice one up into boards.
Dynamite is the only means of destroy
ing them, and the debris is then useful
only as firewood.

Official returns of the recent census
taken throughout France show the
population Of the country to be 49,
O95, $50. This is an increase since the
census of 1886 Of only 2Os, 1874, or less
than half that Of the previous period
OF five years. The greater part of it,
moreover, is accounted for by the in
fux Of strangers into the capital, Paris
alone claiming about four-fifths of the
total. The growth in the other large
cities is ridiculously small, Lyons only
claiming an increase of $4,000, Mar
settles $1,000 and Bordeaux $4,000.
Twenty-eight departments show an
increase, while fifty-nine register a
decrease in the population, the De-
partment du Lot heading the list with
16, 900.

A telegram from London says Par
nell died at Brighton Tuesday night.
Parnelps death was the result of a
chill caught last week.
He took to his bed Friday and died
at Walsingham Terrace at half past
| eleven Tuesday night.
On Friday evening shortly after
Parnell had been induced to return to
his bed, his condition became SO grave
that Mrs. Parnell and the attending
I physician decided it advisable to at
once summon additional medical ad-
vice. Two other physicians were at
once called in, but Notwithstanding
their efforts, Mr.. Parnell grew steadily
worse, and it soon became obvious
that the Irish leader was gradually
sinking and that death was but a
question of a few days.
Since late in the evening Friday it
appears to have been simply matter
Of awaiting the arrival of the newt
able.
Mrs. Parncll, who has been COM
pletely devoted to her husband, refus-
ing to leave his bedside for even an
hours rest, is utterly Frustrated by the
shock and her physicians are somewhat
. apprehensive as to her condition.
SKETCH OF HIS LIFE.
Charles Stewart Parnell was born at
Avondale, in the county of Wicklow,
Ireland, in the year 1916. lie was
descendant of the poet, Parnell, and
his family have been associated with
Irish Parliamentary life for upwards
of century. His great grandfather
Sir John Parnell, was Chancellor of
Exchequer atsthe time of Gratton's
Parliament.
Sir Henry Parnell, grand-uncle of
Mr.. Parnell, was a prominent member
Of the English Parliament in the time
of Lord Grey and Lord Melbourne and
was made Lord Congleton.
Mr.. Parnell whose mother is a daugh.
ter of Admiral Charles Stewart cele-
brated American Naval officer, was
educated at Cambridge University, but
did not take any degree.
Mr.. Parnells name has since been
prominently before the public in con-
nection with the Home Rule proposals
of Mr.. Gladstone.
The proceedings of the Parliament-
airy Commission, which resulted in a
victory for Mr.. Parnell against the
Times and the exposure of the Pigott
forgeries, O'Shea's divorce proceed
ings and Mr.. Parnelps marriage are
matters fresh in the minds of all.

EMPEROR WILLIAM.
A German Newspaper Suppressed
And the Editor in Prison.

And the Editor in Prison.
The Neue Muncheur Tagblatt, the
editor of which has just finished a term
in prison for attacking the German
Emperor is again in hot water. Fri
day it appeared with violent article
in which it attacks the mania for ar
maments and military pomp of Empe-
for William, mania which is draining
Germany, and which after the next
war will leave her completely crushed.
1t says the Bavarian population can-
not have seen with clear vision the
expenses the country has been put to
receive the Emperor, who has no other
object than to destroy the Bavarian
traditions and replace them by Prus-
sian laws, contrary to the aspirations
of that nationality. The article con-
cludes with the following bitter words
'sWho is Emperor William? A cross
between British turnkey and a Ger
man coward. Shall self-respecting
people bow down to this scrofulous,
syphlitic, half-witted individual, who
desires to plunge all Europe in a
bloody war? AS for our part we do
not"
Immediately after the publication of
the article the newspaper plant was
seized and the editor thrown Mail.

An Intruder in the Bath,

The true luxury of the bath is best
appreciated by people of hot climates,
The baths of Kingston, Jamaica, are
described by correspondent as delight
full, being long enough and wide enough
to allow one to founder about. and even
to take couple of strokes. They are
made OF concrete and are filled with
water at the temperature at which it
comes from the mains-just right to
make plunge enjoyable. So clear is
the water that one can scarcely realize
it is three feet deep.
Once in while, to be sure, there is
something which may detract from its
enjoyment by the stranger ii he has not
become used to some of the other in
habitants of the land. For example, as
l was about to take my first jump, /
discovered something that looked bit
like horseshoe crab down at the bot
tom. Calling to one OF the black picka-
ninnies running about the yard. asked
him what it was.

well, take him right out"
"Oh, he's dead, sah."
Never mind : prefer my bath
without him in it,"
A dead scorpion is bad enough, but
that is preferable to having live one
drop from the rafiers overhead on ones
bare flesh, as once happened to friend

isn't filed with warnings.
The influence of little child is some
times strong enough to lift the whole
family up to Heaven.
IT is hard to got people to see that
anything is wrong upon which they have
set their hearts
THERE ought to be norge religious
people VINO are religious when they
can't have their own way.
Men think that they have left all the
mountains behind them when they travel
toward the devil.
TO FIND out that you love the wrong
thing is to find out that you have the
wrong kind of heart.
BLESSED are they which are perse-
cuted for righteousness sake, for theirs
is the kingdom of Heaven"
The devil does good days work
when he turns an eminent preacher into
patent-medicine advertisement.
The chances for being happy with
God in Heaven are not very good, I'M
less we are happy with God on earth.
If you don't know what else you can
do for the Lord, see how much sun
shine you can carry into your own
home.
KEEPING money in the pocket when
God calls for it, is one of the ways in
which good many people help the
devil.
The man who is walking squarely in
the footprint of Christ never looks
around when the devil throws mud at
his back
No MATTER what the man is doing, il
he is adding to the troubles of other
people by selfish spirit, he is pleasing
Satan.
EVERY sinner intends to come to God
some time, but the devil makes him be-
lieve he isn't good enough to come now.
liz the devil couldn't now and then
get good man to hold up his arms, lie
would never have his own way about
anything.
Follow the man far enough who is
trying to tear the Bible to pieces, and
you will find something in his life that
devils love.
The only thing that God condemns
the sinner for, is for refusing to permit
him to take the bad out of his heart and
put the good in.
The sin that dams is always the one
of the present moment. 1t is not what
we have done, but what we are doing
now that God looks at.
IT may be one reason why people have
such hard time in getting moro relig-
ion is because they are not willing that
it shall cost them more money.
EVERY soldier who deserves the name
OF soldier, wants to be in the front rank
in battle, and every Christian who is
Christian in more than name will be sure
to have great deal of trouble with the
devil

A young man in Berlin, Germany,

BETRAYED the bin of the surgeon who
stitched on the young mans nose,
amounting to $40. Now romance

HORRIBLE DEATH.
A Farmer Killed and Devoured BY
His Own Hogs.

A telegram from Topeka, Kan,
says: John Land, a farmer, met with
a most terrible death Saturday. In
the morning he went to his feeding
yards to care of his stock, and as he
did not return for breakfast as soon as
was expected, his wife went to look
for him. In the hog yard she found
her husbands body with forty on fifty
hogs fighting over it and tearing it to
pieces. Lands face was badly dislig-
ured, and the fingers of both hands
mad been eaten of. He had probably
been dead half an hour OF more when
the body was found.
