Men ON man haraf will draga der
slutsatsen, att hemmet hadanefter icke
skulle vara behof af samma underst6d

har kommit till min kannedom, att en-
viss forsamling, som hittills mycket
gynnat hemmet, har, genom erhallna
oriktiga uppgifter ON hemmets ekono-
miska stallning, kommit pa den tanken
att hemmet kunde reda sig med ON
kring halften af Diet underst0d som det
erh6ll fora aret. Det ar icke min SAX
att f0reskrifva f6rsamlingarne, huru
mycket de skola uppoffra for denna
MISUNDERSTANDING. Konferen-
sen har afgjort den fragan vid arsmo-
tet: "att barnhemmet rekommenderas
till vara f0rsamlingars och s0ndagssko-
lors fortfarande valvilja."
Jag will endast meddela f0ljande upp-
lysningar: / vi beh6fva utvidga barn
hemmet Har vardas nu 43 barn och
smart nog torde antalet 6kas. M0jligen

The National Canvass.

Writers in various parts of the u
try are directing attention to the abb
sence of personalities aud the general
high tone of the present presidential
canvass.
The marked freedom from partisan
utilization in the speeches of campaign
orators is certainly gratifying. 1t is
the logical result of increased indepen-
dence among the voters. Intelligent
men are no longer swayed by vindic-
tive denunciations of the opposing par
ty. They demand the discussion of
live issues, not the raking over Of
muck heaps. The rigidity of party
lines in the pre- sidential contests is by
no means to be ignored. But the
growing army of independents. who
may vote for either party according to
the issues presented, has entirely
changed the complexion of modern
presidential compaigns.
Hence the increasing respect which
political managers pay to this widely
ditfused spirit. The snapo OF
the party lash is heard less frequently
than the appeal to cool. dispassionate
judgement respecting issues for which
the candidates stand. Courtesy and
good feeling mark the words of oppos-
ing orators. An earnest political can
vass is TO longer a synonym of dirt
throwing.
That the nation is vastly better of
for the change all will admit. Voters
are learning to take broader views O.
great questions. Blind. unreasonine
devotion to this or that party is nc
longer regarded as loyal and patriotic,

Wolf vengeancee

During one of my hunting and fish
ing excursions in Louisiana was fish,
ing on a lake two oil three miles long
and from one-quarter to one-half mile
wide. On one side the bill land came
down lear the lake, leaving about 9
quarter mile of sand beach, and while
there l saw a deer running at the top
of its speed toward the lake, and a
moment later a wolf appeared IN hot
pursuit. Expecting them to plunge
into the lake, when | could Overtake
and kill them both in the water, | kept
my place. just before the deer reach
cd the water, it was caught by h wolf
which pulled it down and killed it.
Then The wolf stalked around, looked
around, trotted of some distance and
set up q howl, went..fur.her and again
howled, and then into the woods,
when l heard more bowling
The wolf being out OF sight rowed
my beat to the place and got the deer,
and then went Oack to my tish-hoOks.
Shortly there appeared upon the scene
a pack of ten or twelve wolves. They
shifted and moved all around where
the deer had been killed. These move
ments occupied considerable time.
They would huddle together, change
about and trot about in all directions,
keeping close together. Finally they
got into a fight. The whole pack at
tackled one wolf and killed it. 1t was
literally bit and cbewed to pieces.
New, what was the wolf killed for?
The probability is, and | am almost
positive, that the dead wolf was the
n that killed the deer. have talk
ed to many hunters upon this subject
and have come across but two who had
seen anything similar, and they thought
the wolf had been killed for lying. If
it was done in the case | saw for ly-
ing it was the only time l eve knew of
a wolf to be killed wronfully.-Forest

HOW FISHES EAT.
SOME HAVE TEETH-OTHERS MAsTICATE
FOOD IN THROAT mi STOMACH.

The curious ways in which fishes eat
form quite a study. Some fishes have
teeth and some have none at all. In
some the teeth are found upon the
tongue, in some in the throat and in
some in the stomach. Some draw in
their food by suction; the sturgeon is
one of this class. The jelly-tish absords
its food by wrapping its body around
the prey it covets. The star-fsh fas-
tens itself to its victim, turns its stom-
acll wrong side out and enguifs its
dinner without the formality of swal-
lowing it through a mouth first, much
less OF asking permission, says an ex-
change.
There is a peculiar little crab-the
horseshoe crab-which chews up its
foodiwith its legs or claws before it
passes the morsels over to its mouth,
while other crabs aud Holsters masti-
cate their food with their jaws, and
atterward complete the work with an
extra set of teeth which they find con
v~enientIy located in their stomachs.
So thei 9 are are all sorts of methods
for those regularly toothless, and the
hshes which have teeth show almost
az great a diversity in the number,
style and arrangement of them. The
a or skate has a mouth set trans
,ersely across It's head, the jaws work
ing with a rolling motion like two
hands set back to back. In the jaws
there are three lows of fiat teeth, set
like a mosaic pavement, and between
these rolling jaws the fish brushes oys-
tiers and other mollusks like so many
nuts.
The carp's teeth are set back in the
pharynx, so that it actually masticates
its food in its throat, while the sea
urchin has five teeth surrounding its
stomach and working with a peculiar
centralized motion, which makes them
do as good service as if they numbered
hundreds.
Ard these are only a very few of the
odd methods in which fishes eat.

Count ya;cnsin Dead.

A private dispatch received at San
Francisco brings news of the death at
Cleveland of Count Liulo Yalensin,
well known to ell turfmen as the owner
of the Pleasanton stock farm, across
the bay from San Francisco, and it also
rcvives the story of his celebrated di-
vorce case, which involved no less a
parsonage than Monsignor Capel, the
original of Monsignor Catcsby in
Disraeli's ''Lothair.' y
The count ten years ago established
Il fine stock farm in Alameda county,
modelled on Stanford,s Palo Alto. and
he followed Stanford's plan Of crossing
ing thoroughbreds and trotters. The
count had fortune in his stable, as his
yearlings were always in demand.
He had lively experience in Cali
fornia. and his divorce case gained
worldwide celebrity. The count met
in Italy Miss Bessie McCanley, the
daughter OF q wealthy Missourian, who
had settled in the Sacramento Valley,
near the State capital, on what he call
ed the Arno ranch. She was struck
with the counts title and he with her
beauty and wealth.
They were married and came back
to California to live Before her mar
riage she had met Mgr. Capcl in Paris.
He had rowing commission from the
Pope to make converts where he chose.
He converted the rich young Cali
fornian, and III the same time he made
so great an impression upon her fancy
that when he drifted out TO California
about eight years ago, after falling un-
der the displeasure of the Pope, he
made his way to the Arno ranch.
There he was welcomed by Mrs. Val
ensin, and established as the tutor of
her son. The husband objected to the
prelate's presence, and the result was
q divorce suit, which was not contested
BY the wife. Soon after Falcnsin mar
ried again.
Mgr. Capel still lives at the Arno
farm, and serves as tutor to Mrs Valen-
sins children. Those who have seen
him recently on one of his visits to Sac
ramento describe him as very gross in
his appearance and untidy in dress.
He has dropped out Of the great world
in which ne once cut so prominent a
figure Us completely as though death
had claimed him. Mrs. Valensin's de-
votion to the prelate estranged all her
family, her father and sisters going
back TO St. Louis 10 live

New HORROR AT NoyGoRoD.-The
horrors of a frightful storm have been
added to the misery and suffering
caused by the cholera at Mini Novgo-
rod in Russia. The storm was one of
the most frightlul that has ever visited
that region. 1t came sweeping over
the town with Il force and fury that
many buildings were unable to resist.
The cholera hospital was full of pa
tients, many Of them in Il dying condi-
ton. AS they heard the roar of the
hurricane many OF them died of fright.
The terrible noise Of the approaching
storm was soon followed by the storm
itself. which crushed in large part of
the cholera hospita! like an cgg-shell,
hurling the beds and wooden walls into
4 mass fruin From the debris came
the shrieks and groans of the victims, a
number of whom died while the work
of rescue was going on. Other build
ings were also crushed, and the tents of
the traders who had remained notwith-
standing the cholera were scattered
with their contents in all directions
The wretched people Of fNovgOrod have
had all the courage driven out of them
by this latest visitation, and many of
the superstitious declared that the AL
mighty had determined to destroy the
city on account of the wiciedness ofthe
people. Those who could fly have de-
serted the place, while the people who
remain can be seen i'll crowds at the
shrines and in the churches, praying for
the mercy of heaven.
