The census bureau has discovered
that there was about 100000 mort
cages in force in this country. In
order to compare conditions in the
south and west, the bureau has chos-
en- Alabama and Iowa, especial at
tention being paid to Jefferson
county OF the former state. The
showing is made that the amount of
debt to one of population in Ala
bama is 500, while in Iowa it is
SlO4. The southern people are in
much better financial condition than
those Of the west. Their sources Of
prosperity are so much more varied
that it is not unlikely the next cen
sus will make even better showing
so far as they are concerned.

Evansville, Pa, where the terri
BILE mine accident occurred about
three weeks ago, was thrown Into a
fever of excitement Monday night
of last week at11 o'clock, when it
was announced that five of the men
who were entombed in the mine
there eighteen days ago had been
found alive. These five, with the
thirteen bodies recovered, makes
every one of the missing men &C.
counted for. How they survived is
miracle. Nothing like it has been
known or heard of in the anthracite
coal fields of Pennsylvania.

THE JUST JUDGE.-A popular
young man was brought before a
justice in Natal, charged with the
offense of kissing young lady "by
force and against her will" The
young lady, who was very hand
some, gave her testimony in a mod
est and straight forward manner,
after which the judge gave the fol-
lowing decision: ''The court in this
case sympathizes with the defend
ant, and will therefore discharge
him, without fine, Imprisonment or
reprimand, because the court, whilst
this case has been in progress, has
been obliged to hold on to both
arms of his chair in order to keep
from kissing complainant himself. .

NOT ALWAYS TIE PROPER CAPER.

One day peasant carried bas-
ket of potatoes to the field and dug
holes in the soil and planted them,
says the Detroit Free Press. His
young son watched the operations
for time and then inquired:
"Pop, why do you put those ia
ters in tho ground ?"
"By SO doing each one will bring
me back ten" replied the father.
The boy went away and when his
fathe- came up to dinner he found
him digging in the yard and asked:
"Sonny, what are you seeking
for?" "Why, pop, | have planted
the clock, the bootjack, two umbrel-
las, the tea pot, your Sunday hat,
mas shoes and tablecloth, and
each one will bring me back ten
''You young idiot, come out and
be parslyzed," shouted the father,
and he tanned that boy up and down
and crosswise and sidewise until
the supply Of peach-tree limbs gave
out.
''Pop planted Eaters to get back
ten," mused the boy, as he sat down
under the low shed to think, "but l
planted clocks and hats and shoes
to get ia licking. 1t must be the diff
ference in the soil"

NATHAN PoLAK was treated with ap-
parent unsuccessful results, for con-
sumption, with the Koch lymph. The
treatment was pursued at an Eastern hos
pital. In an almost dying condition the
man was then sent to Colorado. At Den
yer he was again treated according to the
Koch method, and he began to improve.
He has now returned to the East a well
man. 1t would thus seem that with GER
tain changes of climate the treatment is
successful-that is, if this one case proves
anything. Certainly not the change TO
Colorado's atmosphere alone worked his
cure, for the doctors agree that his was a
very bad case. The lymph injection,
then, had positive relation to the cure.
But while it proved of no effect in one
atmosphere, it seemed to operate marvel
ously in another. OF course there may
have been other conditions, of which we
are not informed; there may have been
improper application in the first place
and exactly correct treatment in the
second instance. The case at least sug-
gests new line Of inquiry.

LOGGING ON THE AMERICAN.
The Commencement of a Great and
Important Industry.
How the Logs are Shot Into the River
Operations Being Planned
on Vast Scale.

Reference was made in the RECORD
UNION few days ago to the fact that the
first log-driye on the American river had
reached the boom at Folsom. The TeEe-
graph of that place thus describes the
operations of the company owning the
boom:
About the busiest man in the country
these times is Colonel Cummings, Super-
lntendent of the American River Land
and Lumber Company. The operations
OF TINS concern reach from San Francisco
up into the Sierra Nevadas. While build
ing the mill at the boom near here,
which, by the way, is now nearly COM
pleted, operations are being carried for
ward ali along the line. Cattle are being
shod preparatory to starting with the
four immense wagons, built here during
the past winter, and which will be enl-
ployed in the lumber woods several miles
above, the present logging camp, in the
very heart of the big timber. Colonel
Cummings expects them to be in active
use by the middle of next week.
The roads between Placerville and the
company camps are being repaired to
permit the passage of these enormous
vehicles. The first step has already been
taken, with perfect success, in the COM
pany's enterprise, the feasibility OF
much argued upon during the past wear.
Seven hundred Thousand feet Of the COM
pany,s saw logs, being all that were stored
on their roll-wayS last fall have been
safely run into the river through the log
chute, distance of nearly a mile, and
having perpendicular drop in that dis
tance Of about 400 feet.
"A gentleman Just down from tho com
pany's camp has explained to us the
modus operandi of running these LOGS
through the chute. An engine at the head
of the chute hauls them by means Of q
wire rope from the rollway in groups OF
five 10 eight logs, and as they reach the
verge Of the hill their speed is consider
ably accelerated, and after passing hun
dred feet or so they vanish in a cloud OF
smoke, caused by their friction in the
chute, rumbling, whiZzing sound fol-
lowing them for a few seconds, and the
final plunge into the river being distinctly
heard distance of mile back from the
canyon.
THE first section of the company's lop
drive IS now on its way to the boom AT
Folsom, where 1t may be expected before
many days. The rear of the drive was
started from the mouth of the chute on
Wednesday morning. MANY of the logs
are making their way unguided and un-
aided. Colonel Cummings received in
formation from Coloma on Wednesday
last that numbers of the logs had passed
that place. The river is in splendid con-
dition for log driving, and the Colonel is
more confident than ever that his plans
will be successfully carried out. Ger
tainly the success of the first step prom
lseS much for the future"

be applied to the formation of such an
exhibition, the State Commissioners will
have no control. Up to within recent
period proper spirit has pervaded the
State in this matter 1t is illustrated by
the stock-raisers of the State. It was pro-
posed by the thoroughbred associations
to join all the best specimens of animals
owned by all the best breeders of Cali
fornia into single herd and call it Cali
fornia herd, exhibiting it as such at Chi
cago. This is consistent with the idea
of separate exhibit, but wholly i'm
practicable when distributive exhibit is
under contemplation. That the point
may not escape the attention, let it be re-
membered that the chief advantage to
California is to prove to the world the
great diversity of her industrial resources.
This cannot by any possibility be achieved
through the means of distributive or de-
partmental exhibits; it can be done .only
by presenting them in one place as from
one State. By this means California will
gain the one special advantage to which
she is entitled, and she can gain it in no
other way.

The New York EUening Post has pro-
posed language test for immigrants
that is, that fair knowledge of English
should be made the requisite for admis-
sion to our country. This would not do.
Some of our most desirable immigrants
come from Sweden, Norway and Dem
mark, where the English language is not
taught and where the opportunities for
learning it are very few. Yet the Swedes,
Norwegians and Danes speedily become
Americanized, assimilate with Us and
give us excellent stock for vigorous
population. They do not fall in with an
archie ideas, are not given to lawlessness,
and, as rule, are sober and very in
dustriOus people. On the other hand,
many of the most vicious immigrants,
those who drift to lawlessness and affili-
ate with the radical socialists and the
brewers of discomfort. have smattering
of English when they land, and one large
class of them comes from a section of Eu-
rope where the facilities for learning to
speak English are very broad.

The Hamlet of You Bet Comes to the
Front with an Itom.
w. c. Baker, writing to the SUNDAY
UNION from the village of You Bet, Ne
vada County, says:
Daniel Snow, Of this place, lost a COW
twentyeight days ago under the follow
ing circumstances: He turned the COW
out from the stable with calf only eight
days old, and could not find her again,
although he and others hunted the country
over for miles around. But she was
found to-day in singular place, not over
one hundred yards from the barn.
''B. T. Smell, merchant here, has an
old butcher shop, which has not been
used for several years. The front doors
were standing open, and in the back
part was room about three and One-ha!f
feet wide and seven feet long, which had
been used as refrigerator for meats. The
COW had found her way into this apart
ment, and it being SO narrow she could
not turn around. The door shut with a
spring-latch, so she could not back out.
She was there twenty-eight days without
food or water.
"She was found still alive and, although
a perfect skeleton, could stand up and eat
and drink, and has fair show to live

Mr.. BAYARD has contributed valua-
BILE paper to a recent review in which he
generously sustains the Administrations
foreign policy in the affair with Italy.
That this Democratic statesman should
forego partisanship to that end, testifes
to patriotism and sincere love Of country
that ought to seriously impress young
men who are led to view party as the
sole means to patriotism. Mr.. Bayard
says of our foreign policy and foreign in
reference with our affairs:
Fortunately and wisely. we have thus far
steered clear of 'entangling alliances with
the single and limited exception OF our treaty
of 1916 with New Granada respecting the
transit of the IsthmuS of Panama; and by
thus following the policy OF careful abstentiOn
from all interference in the domestic questions
and local issues of other nations, we are en-
abled more consistently TO cneck and repel
any impertinent or Pragmatical attempt by
foreigners 10 intermeddle with our domestic
politics or to dictate alterations in our care
fully-arranged distribution of powers. 1t may
well be understood that, deSlrouS as we are
of pursuing policies OF peace, comfy, and
reciprocal advantage with all nations, we will
never so lower the standard of our independ-
ence as TO change the form and principles of
our Government to accommodate strangers
who come among US voluntarily and in pur-
suit of their individual tastes and fortunes.

THE charge that English gold is behind
the insurgents in Chile is not now denied.
The Chilean Consul at San Francisco
says that English commercial men desire
to secure control of the nitrate beds.
Balmaceda wishes the control kept in
Chilean hands. AS q result the English
have joined hands with the insurgents to
overthrow the Government. 1t is stated
as fact that the money spent to outfit
the transport Itata at San Diego was
drawn by an Anglo-Chilean bank con-
trolled by a British nitrate king, upon
London credit. 1t is very likely that all
this is true and that English aid is given
to the revolutionary forces. In fact a
sharp struggle between British mer-
chants and their competitors to control
the Chilean trade, has led the former into
espousing'the cause of the revolutionists,
since the Balamceda Government prefers
to encourage home control.
