THE SEAL PoACHERs AT WORK.
Bering Sea Fairly Alive With Herds OF the
Valuable Animals.

Bering Sea Fairly Alive With Herds Of the
Valuable Animals.
WASHINGTON, April 2.-The Depart
ment of State has received detailed in
formation of the operations of the sealing
vessels now engaged in killing and taking
seals along the American coast. At latest
advices the feet was off Cape Flattery,
keeping company with the herd as it moves
up the coast on the way to its breeding
grounds on the Pribyloff Island. On the
21st ultimo the American steamer Michi-
gan passed them, and reports the water
fairly alive with seals, and the vessels had
their boats out, busily shooting them.
Between March IA and "a reports from IA
vessels fix their catch at 2.252 seals.
The steamer Mystery had been en-
gagged at Victoria bv the poaching fleet to
meet them at Cloquot Sound, March "a,
take of their skins and furnish them with a
new stock of supplies, thus enabling them
TO prosecute their work without the loss of
time necessary to put into the port of
Victoria for that purpose. The same steamer
is engaged to meet the fleet again later in
the season, at Sand Point, on Kadiak
Island, and receive their skins and furnish
them with fresh supplies preparatory to the
entrance of the feet into Bering Sea On
March Is, the Brenda arrived at Victoria
from Nova Scotia, being the first of the 13
sealing schooners on the way from there,
and she is not being fitted out for sea-
Seven more British vessels are in Victoria
and five in process of construction destined
for this years sealing operations, making
the total British fleet about 20 as against
81 last year.

PENSION LAWYERS PERQUIsITEs,
Some of Them, Mr.. Raum Says, Get Their
Relatives Positions

WASHINGTON, April I'm the Pension
Office investigation to-day Commissioner
Raum said he knew of one case,
and there night be several others,
in which relatives of pension attor-
neys were employed in the Pension
Office. Wherever he knew of such rela-
tionship he would keep the claims of the
attorney from his relative, though this kim
ship might perhaps cause inside informa-
tion to reach an attorney. The Commits
sioner said the record showed that he had
been absent from the office 137 days in the
last two years and four months.
Mr.. Enloe having asked question imply
ing that the Pension Office had at one time
last year slowed up" on account of the
condition of the public treasury, the Com
missioner replied that he had never felt any
embarrassment as to the state of the treas
ury; that Secretary Foster had never made
him any suggestion on the subject. and that
he had never held back single pension
case, and did not intend to do so. While he
was Commissioner he intended to allow lust
as many certificates as could be properly
adiudicated with the force of the office.

Education IN Sutherland.


The system Of education in practice
among the Swiss is enlightened and far
reaching. Not only arc pupils under Il
strict and kindly discipline while at
school. but they are also made to feel
that the warning and protecting care of
their tutors is over them whenever they
are outside the fathers house. As soon
as the child is in the street he has passed
from the circle of his home, and that
moment begins the schools authority.
Regulations, printed on slips and
dropped in every house, contain, among
score Of others equally sensible, the

scholars home and school is not al

Tho Travels OF Weeds.

ing to tho order Of composite. called

ly plentiful. II is also making head
way in the Old World. The foliage
has q resemblance to the ageratllm.
well known in gardens. The flowers
are very small, the disk being yellow,
and have five small ray petals. 1t is
strange to find tropical plant thirty
ing well SO f;il north.
1t is destroyed by the first white
frost, but as the seeds are not injured
by the EXTREMIST cold the plant is
able to maintain It's existence wher-
ever it is able to mature It's seed in
summer time. 1t is for this reason
that so many other tropical weeds,
such as tho jamestown weed or sti,a-

is another tropical weed.
