The Lottery to End.

1t would appear by the following item
from a recent issue of the New Orleans
Times Democrat that the suggestion in
several newspapers of late, that the
Louisiana State Lottery Company in
tends setting up business elsewhere, is
erroneous and that it will close up shop
on the expiration of its present charter.
In view of the contradictory rumors
circulated regarding the intentions of
the Louisiana State Lottery Company
and in order to accurately answer nu-
merous inquiries, representative of the
Times Democrat yesterday interviewed
Mr.. Paul Conrad, the President of the
company, with the result expressed be-
low:
Reporter-Mr. Conrad, it was asserted
some weeks ago in the Northern news
papers, and the statement has since
been revived recently, that the COM
panv is about to remove to Nicaragua,
and there, under government franchise
open up the business on a grander scale
than ever.
,S,President Conrad have heard some
thing of this, but there is no foundation
for 1T. The company has officially
stated that it bows to the decision of the
Supreme Court and will respect the laws.
Reporter-Then have you no plans OF
future action?
President Conrad-I cannot state the
case more strongly than was done at the
time the com any decided not to attempt
to obtain a renewal of its charter.
can only repeat that the company will
continue in business until the expiration
of its present charter and then cease TO
exist. l cannot understand, after all
that has been said, why there should be
any confusion in the public mind about
the matter.
Reporter-Have you any objection to
my stating this as finally for the salts
faction of the public2
President Conrad-None whatever.
Reporter-Some of the Eastern papers,
Mr.. Conrad, persistently assert that the
lottery company continues to use the
United States mails in the prosecution
of its business; will you kindly tell me
if that is true?
President Conrad-Itis utterly untrue,
We are obeying the law In its letter and
kspirit, and our agents everywhere are
instructed to obey it. We are using the
express companies only in our business
and in all our circulars are printed in
structions to all persons dealing with ui
to avoid the mails.

THE TEMPTATION

To go out of doors Ia rough weather is not

rough weather frequently. Diseases which arise

The most recent proposal for huge
bridge is for one across the Bosphorus, a
project for which has been made out by
a French engineering company, The
historic and picturesque channel between
the shores of Europe and Asia, which
connects the sea of Marmora with the
Euxine, is 872 yards broad, and it is pro-
posed thas the bridge to span it should
be of one arch only. In these days of
huge bridges this should not offer seri-
GUS difficulties from an engineering point
of view, if the financial ones can be got
over, Various projects have been put
forward to the same effect during the
past twenty years, but it was not consid-
cred that the bridge would be useful
enough to justify the enormous expense
which it would entail. Railways have,
however, developed very much during
recent years, and it is now thought that,
if constructed, it would act as a link in
the local railway system, and eventually
pay fair return on the money invested
in it.-Toronto Globe.

WHEN TO FALL IN LOVE.
A Woman Gives Some Common Sense
Advice Upon the Subject.

Advice Upon the Subject.
l would venture upon one observa |
ton, with which let no youth or
maiden be offended. Tho man who
desires to experience the passion of |
love at its fullest perfection ought |
not to be too young Memories, re
grets, the experience which furnishes
the faculty for making comparisons,
do not spring into existence, like
mushrooms, in the course of a single
night, and yet these, likewise, are
necessary ingredients in the compost
ton of true passion.
And so, without going quite so far
as that eminent novelist who as his
own years advanced added proper
tionately to those of his heroes, and
was probably only saved by death
from depicting the loves of the abso-
lutely senile, | should certainly not
seek for the constant and devoted
heart beneath the striped fiannels of
han undergraduate, any more than /
Should look for it within the trim
bodice of the raw schoolgirl whose
voracious besoin tanner might lead
her to fall down and worship the
very first man that came across her
path.
But what has the passing of the
actual years to do with falling in love,
when the whole matter lies centered
in the inappreciable age of the heart2
In order to fall in love vigorously and
satisfactorily a man must have ar
rived at the age of reason. He must
have outlived, that is to say, all that
went to make him hairbrained, inn
petuous, or Incapable of gauging the
strength of his own emotions, while
at the same time he must not have
entered that barren and desolate
region which is strewn with dead
Illusions and shattered idols.
He must have come to know, of
course, that "all is not gold that gilt
tiers, while retaining his appreciation
~n9f the precious metal when it is pure
and unalloyed. The sensation of
heart hunger, which comes to most
men at some period of their lives,
must not have been succeeded by that
of either repletion or safety, and he
should still be a believer in true and
disinterested affection while admit
ting and deploring the rarity of the
phenomenon.
"Wait till you come to forty =
sings Thackeray in his well known
ballad, after which age, if we are to
believe the great novelist, man
ceases to care about anything but
dipping his nose in the Gascon
wine" / should like to think that
all this modern march of intellect,
which inculcates temperate habits
and improved sanitary conditions
with the result, as | hear, of increas-
ing the average of human longevity,
may have somewhat extended the
limit of male sensibility.
Be that as it may, however the
period of mans enlightened suscep

at the public hall. This meeting, how
ever, in many localities, will occur in
the evening. An important place in the
exercises OF this meeting should be given
to the free school as the characteristic
product Of the four centuries of Ameri-
can life, and as the safeguard Of our
free institutions for the future. At
least one of the speakers should deal
with this subject. Moreover, 1.-The Song
of Columbus Day." sung at the morning
celebration in all the schools, might be
repeated by the general audience in this
mass meeting. While in some cases 1t
may be impossible for the schools 10 be
present en- masse at the public meeting,
they may at least send delegations.
Prominent seats should be reserved for
the representatives Of the pupils, and one
OF the exercises of the afternoon might
be assigned to them.
In these ways, and in others which
will suggest themselves, the
Schools May Lead
in the general public observance by the
citizens. This dominance Of the schools
in all the celebrations Of the day is de-
sirable, because the object Of the public
school celebration Of Columbus Day is
not merely to awaken in the pupils an
historical and patriotic interest in their
country, but also to impress on the people
Of America that the free institutions of
the United States are the product of
free and universal education.
The attention of the American public
on this 400th anniversary must be di-
rected forcibly to the fact that the free
school has given to our land its distin-
gushing civilization, and that the hope
of the coming century lies mainly in
committing to the public schools def.
nitely the work of training the coming
voters to the duties Of citizenship.
