SOWE PROGRESS MADE.

The general agitation concerning unde-
sirable immigration is having some eff
feet. For one thing, such law as we have
will be enforced for awhile, at least And
Judge Lacombe of the United States cir
cult court has issued an order that appli-
cation for habeaus corpus under the i'm
migration act shall be accompanied with
an affidavit presenting the same, stating
the hour when the vessel which brought
the immigrants mnst be brought before
the courts on writs of habeas corpus be-
fore the vessel on which they are ordered
leaves port, thus etfectually preventing de-
lay in the issuance of habeas corpus writs
to allow the steamer to sail without them.
Otherwise habeas corpus decision can
not be granted, and they must 90 back.
1t has also been made evident that the
government will not be as easy as it has
been with the foreign ship-owners, but will
assess and collect the fines due from them
by law for every violation of the statute.
So manifest has this determination been
made that some societies organized for the
purpose of increasing immigration have
sent back word to Europe that no more
immigrants must be allowed to start unless
they are in reasonable health and able to
take care of themselves.
So far, so good. This country has been
altogether too free, and its freedom has
been shamefully abused by those who
haven't appreciated it.

ANOTHER SOCIETY,

This is great time for societies. One
of the very latest is entitled the Colonial
Danes of America. The Office of this So
ciety is to be in New York and its objects
are to collect manuscripts, traditions,
relics and mementoes of bygone days, for
preservation; to commemorate the history
and success of the American Revolution
and consequent birth of the Republic of
the United States; to diffuse healthful and
intelligent information in regard to Ameri-
can history and tending to create popular
interest therein, and to inspire patriotism
and love OF country; to promote social in
tercourse aud fellowship among its mem
bers, and to inculcate among the young
the obligations of patriotism and reverence
for the founders of American constitu-
tional liberty. The managers for the first
year are: Elizabeth Duer King, Coralie
Gardiner, Emily N. Trevor, May King Van
Rensselaer, Fairfax, Mary Van Wyck
Church, Martha J. Lamb, Cornelia A.
Beekman, Annie T. Lawrence, Sarah AL
den Derby and Sarah Goodhue King.
This society has. it will be seen, the
| same aims that the Sons of the Revolu-
ton have. 1t may do some good and car
hardly do any harm. There are two more
societies which ought to be formed if there
are any people left to form them. They
should be called the Sons of Adam ant
the Daughters of Eve. The object O.
these societies should be to pay some at
tention to the history of the man ant
woman who had the great responsibilit.
of starting the human race, and also t.
call attention to the fact that we all be
long to the same family. OF course W
can't be expected to practice according t.
this theory, but we can make societie
which will acknowledge the general re
lationship whenever they meet to con
gratulate themselves on being composed Q
the best members of the family.

were put out, wind-mills locked. People
who required motor bored hole into
the ground, slipped pipe through it and
let the water turn their wheel and give
motion to their machinery. The fire COM
pany found that even after diminishing
the pressure they could throw stream
over the highest building in town, and
promptly sold their engines to less for
tunate community. The owner of larse
brick yard combined with the electric
lighting plant in putting down a six inch
well which flows two thousand gallons per
minute, which they brought into play by
the aid of turbine wheel, and now the
same power that makes bricks for their
buildings by day runs a dynomo which
lights them by night. Innumerable other
uses to which this wonderful power is ap-
piled might be named

What Is Lffef
IT. Mitchell Prudden, NJ. D., in Harper's Maya
zine for April

TT. Mitchell Prudden, NJ d. in Harpers Maya
zine for April
A mysterious potency, which we call
life, stole in upon the earth in the prime
val silences, and has fingered on age after
age as changeless and inscrutable as its
creator. Life is always associated with
particular form of matter called proto-
plasm, and has been transmitted from one
being to another, high or low, in an un-
broken series since it first appeared. But,
80 far as we know, it has always resided,
as it does to-day, in little masses of pro-
toplasm called cells.
In the higher forms of animals large
numbers of co-ordinated cell communities
are grouped together to form an indiyidu-
al capable of varied and complex powers,
while in the lowest plants single cell fos-
ters the spark which but feebly suggests
the wonderful capacities of higher types.
We know that protoplasm is an albu-
minoid substance, and that it looks very
much alike in cells which may develop
into one of the higher animals, or in those
which remain in the lowly elementary con-
dition which probably belonged to the ear
lest types upon the earth. Hence the in
dehnltenesS OF our attempts 10 cnardcpeT-
ize and explain its varied forms This
protoplasm has more than once been found
at the storm center of controversial vorti-
ces, because just here the material and
the immaterial seem to meet.
A gentleman just returned from scien-
tific seance is said to have remarked that
80 far as he could make it out, protoplasr
appeared to be some new kind of arrow
root, belief in which did not necessarily
imply incredulity as to the inspiration o.
the scriptures.
We analyze it, and find what elementa
| substances combine to give it form, w
| watch the things it does under the inspi
| ration of the life forces, and these varieC
| observation We get together and writ
down and call it discourse upon life, o
biology But when in the last chapter W
try to make plain to ourselves or to other
| what it is, after all, which makes this par
ticular form of matter called protoplasr
alone fitted for the residence of the lif
powers, when we try to picture the natur
and origin of the inspiring agencies, "
find that, like Omar, we

On view at the carpet exhibition at the
Commercial museum in Vienna is o large
silk carpet, the property of the imperial
court, of considerable historical and ar
tistic interest. The carpet, marvel of
its kind, was presented to the Emperor
Charles vi by Gar Peter the Great, and is
a magnificent specimen of old oriental car
pet-weaying. 1t is unequaled for the rich
ness and purity of its colors, and the hues
and tints of its silken fleece change kaleido-
scopically according to the position in
which it is exposed to the light. This re-
markable piece of tapestry represents in
brilliant colors a picture of the chase at
the Persian court, while the border is
adorned with strange representations of
feathered genii and flying dragons.
