ANIMALS VIEW or MAN.
They Fear the Savage More Than the ciyiI
red Man.

Thry Fear the Savage More Than the civil
ited Man.
Savage man, who has generally been
first I'm contact with animals, rs usually
a hunter and therefore an object of dis
Ike 10 the other hunting animals, ana
Of dread 10 the hunted But civilized
man, with his supply Of bread and beef,
Is not necessarily a hunter, and it Is
just conceivable that he might be con
tent To- leave the animals in o newly
discovered country umClested, and CON
descend, when not better employed, TO
watch their attitude toward himself,
says the Popular Science Monthly.
The impossible island in The Swiss
Family Robinson, in which half the
animals Of the two hemisphcres We're
collected, would be an idcnl place for
such an experiment But, unfortunate
ly, uninh8bited islands seldom contain
more than a few species, and those gen
orally birds or sen beasts; and In newly
discovered game regions savage man
has generally been before us with his
arrow spears and pitfalls
Some Instances Of the first contact Of
animals with man have, however, been
preserved in tho accounts Of thc early
voyages collected by IIakluyt and
others. though the hungry nayigators
were generally more On victualng their
ships with the mWspacting beasts and
birds, or on noting those which would
be useful commodities for 'triiieke'
than in cultivadng friendly relations
with the animal inhabitants Of The new
iy discovered islands.

Progress in Mexico.

For the fourth time Portiro Diaz has
been inaugurated as President of Mexi-
CO. His first term was fronl1S76 to 1880.
Since 1884 he has been continually in of
fee. Inmany respects he has shown HIM
self to be and enlightened an progress
sive ruler. In the matter of railroads,
telegraphs and telephones, banking faci-
lities and other modern Improvements,
there has been remarkable develop
ment. The separation of state and
church continues to be enforced. Pop
ular education makes headway, but
slowly. The population of Mexico is
about eleven millions. OF late somewhat
more has been attempted in order to
rescue the lahoring people from their
degraded condition. The Indians consti-
tute about one-third of the population,
and lead life of their own, mingling
but not mixing with the other races.
Mexican Romanisn, not having the en-
lightenment and stimulus that would
come to them Sfrom powerful Evangel-
ical churches in contact with their own,
is mostly what it is in the other Spanish
Republican countries, largely a miser-
able parody on what christian church
should be. A more needy, if more
hopeful field, for the mission of pure
Christianity hardly exists.

new DIAMOND FIELDS
Tiffany Reports FaVGrably Upon Speei-
mems From Idana.
AN INLAND EMPIRE RESOURCE.
Added to the Long List of Rich Treas
nres now Existing.
ARE REGULAR KIMBERLY STONES.
Ground for Further Definite =
Prospecting.

A Boise City dispatch says that Chas.
Vandorn, who is interested in the dia-
mond discovery on Snake river, tells the
following story in regard to the discov-
cry and his connection with it: In the
Cos he was at Kimberly, South Africa,
and become acquainted with diamond
mining. About six years ago, after COM
ing to Boise, a prospector showed him a
stone, which he pronounced to be a
Kimberly diamond. When the man
told him that he picked it up on Snake
river be ridiculed the idea. Subse-
quently he made an Investigation, and
found that there was a formation there
similar to that at Kimberly. He had II.
Bratnoben, the widely-known mining
man, look into it. and that gentleman
advised him to have the ground pros
pected.
He then took Mr.. Waters, who was
running ferry in the vicinity, into his
confidence, and the latter has been
quietly prospecting the country, having
recently found the gems. One or more of
those stones was sent to Tiffany & Co.,
who made favorable report. Vandorn
states that he will soon have one of the
stones that is being cut. The party who
has gone to the fields is composed of
Engineer Wellington and an assistant,
three employees of Vandorn, who are to
take up additional ground, L. w. Weilan
an expert from New York and a Mr..
and Mr.. Bulltinch. .xperts
from Baltimore. What it will amount
to only time can tell. 1t should be
stated that fields are in that part of the
state which shows such great evidences
of volcanic action, being on the border
of the famous lava flow which stretches
in cheerless desert for hundreds of
miles across the country.

Washington dispatch says: s'About
40 democratic members of the next con-
gress have entered into a more or less
definite agreement. Their purpose is to
act as brake on tariff legislation. In
their own language, they are going to
'stand together to keep the party from
acting the fool on the tariff question" !"
Most of the members are from the At
lantic seaboard, but several are from the
Ohio valley districts. Ii their great
prototype we're alive, these forty protec-
tionists would be classed as "Randall
democrats They are entirely conf
dent that they will be able to hold down
the wild and woody Westerners, and the
members from the cotton districts, to
very moderate revision of the tariff
without material effect upon the pro-
tected industries"

Swallowed a Cork.

The Ashland Tidings of the 9th gives
the account as follows of distressing
thing that happened to little child in
that city. "A little daughter of aIr. and
Mrs. Anson Jacobs, three years old, had
a serious time last unday with cork
that fell into it's throat while the child
lay upon its back playing with per-
frine bottle in wfieh the stopper be-
longed. The cork had a metal cap, bell
shaped, surmounted by tubular top of
the same metal. When the cork fell or
was drawn into the windpipe, the child
coughed violently, and the cork was
forced up, metal end first, into the head
into the passage leading to the nose,
where it was we,iged tight, out of sight.
1t caused the child great pain, aud Dr.
Parson was appealed to for relief. AS
sisted by DR.. Songer, who etherized the
patient, the doctor succeeded in dislodg-
ing and removing the obstruction, after
much difficulty.

A Kemarkab,e Chapter.

The fate of nearly all the prominent
actors in the Cronin murder, to which
the latest addition is the death of Mar
tin Burke at Joliet last week forms a re-
markable chapter. Pat 0'Sullivan, one
of Burke's fellow prisoners, died in
prison last May. About month before
John Beggs died. As senior guardian of
camp 20, of the Clan-na-Gael, he was
prominently identified with the case.
DIR. Lewis, the dentist, who was working
on DR.. Cronin's teeth at the time of the
murder, has recently died of consump-
ton. Edward Spelman, wealthy
brewer of Peoria, who testified in the
case as a prominent member of the Clan,
na-Gael, was killed about year ago by
Il fall from a ladder.
Tom Desmond, of San Francisco, an
other member of the Clan-na- Gael, is
permanently crippled from fall one
night while on his way to meeting of
camp %. Michael Cannon, witness
in the case. popularity supposed to have
bad much knowledge of the trouble lead
ing up to the murder, died recently of
pneumonia. Frank Shea, another i'm
portant witness, went the same way.
Peter McGeehan, who was accosted on
the street about Il week before the fatal
night by Cronin himself, and accused of
being party to the plot toinurder him,
secured work in the south side rolling
mill and met horrible death one day
by alling into q pit. Robbert Gibbons,
who was an alibi witness for Burke, got
into quarrel two years ago with police
Captain Schuettler, who was active in
running down the Cronin conspirators,
and as result, of a threatening movem-
ent on Gibbons part Schuettler shot
him and was exonerated by the coroner's
jury. III addition, several other deaths
have occurred among the IAN i-Cronin
gang, Some of them natural and some
violent.
