Where the Scotch Go.

A Glasgow paper prints the statistics
of emigration from that port to foreign
countries for eight months of the year
1892, or up to the month of September
Of the whole body of emigrants 43 Were
bound for Australia, 1865 for Canada
and 20.037 for the United States. Glas-
gov is British port and Canada and
Australia are British colonies, yet but
one-tenth of this years emigrants sought
new homes under the British flag, while
nine-tenths of the whole body sought
them in the American republic. Why
is it that Canada and Australia cannot
get the emigrants whom they are SO anx-
ious to obtain, while millions of foreign.
ers are desirous of coming to the United
states? There is far more unocouoiel
land in these British possessions than
there is in this country. Canada and
Australia must throw off the British
yoke, establish free democratic govern
ment, adopt an independent policy.

keeping up with the march of modern

She Was Disappointed.

He is dignified gentleman of military
bearing, the kind of man who would at
tract attention anywhere, and he tells thi.
good story on himself:
Il was among the green hills of New
Hampshire rusticating for few weeks
and taking up my lodgings at such hostel
ries - were within reach, when I found
myself one day at remote point, where
was the only passenger at the station. a
man was waiting for me with mountain
wagon, into which / climbed. He was the
landlord of a little inn at the top of the
mountain. He looked me over and then al
my solitary satchel.
Want your trunks sent up to the house
or over to the store?'
This is all the trunk l have re
sponded
"'Why, where's yer samples, mister"
81 saw then that he had mistaken my
calling for that eminently useful one Of
the drummer. But the next setdown was
of a different kind and made me feel
smaller than anything that ever before
happened to me. A very pretty, rosy
checked girl stood on the porch of the
little inn, cloud of disappointment ON heI
face, as we drew up.
"'Here we be, sissy said my driver a.
he threw the lines on the horses back.
"'Oh, pop, said the girl as she pointed
to me, and the shadows settled on her fait
face, is that all you got?'

annihilated. ."-Detroit Free Press.

The Laugh on somebody.

Last August was making pleasure
jaunt up in Lake Superior on the steam
er China, with bright young lady
cousin for company. There was jolly
crowd ON board, and one day at dinner
the jokes were passing around in the usu-
al way, when | noticed engraved ON a
large silver salver the name of the boat,
China" Turning to Nancy, said very
earnestly: "You might suppose that
this dish is silver, but it is not. 1t Is
china" Bofore she could reply, the
very tall, young colored man, VINO wait
ed on our table stepped up to my chair
and in utmost good faith explained:
"Beg pardon, sab, bit dat dish is not
china, sab. 1t is silver, sab, but it says
china on it cause dat is de name Of de
boat, sahr'
Ever since then have been wonder
ing whether the laugh that went rolling
down the saloon from our table was on
me or the waiter.-petroit Free Press.

AN ELECTRICAL WEDDING.

The Guests Were Served With Some thing
Beyond Usual Entertainment.
That was a wonderful electrical dis
play at the wedding of Miss Lydia Mil
Ter and Mr.. David ROsenbaum on Tues
day evening. After the marriage cere-
mony had been completed the bride and
groom took their positions against d
background of potted plants and flowers
set against a screen of evergreens. Tiny
incandescent lamps were concealed in
the foliage of the screen, and glowed
and disappeared irregularly like freflies
in among the trees. Electrical butter
flies and birds perched among the leaves
and flowers. Overhead was a crown of
Chinese lanterns, each containing a 16-
candle power lamp
The bridal arch of evergreen under
which the newly married pair stood to
receive their friends Eas provided with
a row of electric lamps in red, white
and blue. On top of the arch was
perched an American eagle, and on the
shield of pink velvet which formed the
keystone of the arch was outlined in III
candescent lights the figure of heart.
the initials of the bride and groom and
the date 1892. Two bronze statues stood
guard at the entrance of the room, and
their helmets were illuminated by in
candescent lamls.
The electrical wonders. did not stop
here. The most ingenious feature of
this unique wedding reception followed

snow fakes by two electric fan motors,
placed in the gallery overhead. AS the
guests entered the supper room there
was sudden outburst of electrical bells
and musical entertainments. AS the
guests were seated there was blaze of
light, and at the completion of the first
course the words 'Hood lack" appeared
over the heads Of the newly married
couple, and an electric hairpin. gift
to the bride, became incandescent and
surrounded her head with halo of light
Wine bottles were suddenly trans
formed into glowing candelabra. The
feast was one long continued series of
electrical surprises, and however the
guests at ordinary weddings may feel,
the guests at this wedding must have
thought that they We're amply recon-
pensed for their outlay in wedding gifts.
The Baltimore attempt to make we'd
dings entertaining and to givethe guests
a better return than is customary for
their trouble and expense may or may
not be elsewhere initiated. Democrats
may object that such weddings would
tend to the increase of luxury and ex-
travagance. Nervous people may not
relish the startling suddenness with
which banquets are made to bloom with
blaze of light, or the mysterious ring
ing of bells or the sounding, unidenti-
fed music. Nevertheless a good many
people besides the bride will remember
this wedding for many a day.-Balti-

Satisfying His Curiosity.

They walked together down the old road
past the orchard and the ruined mill to the
rustic bridge across the little brook, which
prattled idly to the pebbles as it hurried
along.

be good feature to show the changes
in the leading parishes doing bust
ness at Shreveport: - GlLE
It will be observed that all section

1t will be observed that all sections
trading at Shreveport have increased
their corn crops except Claiborne and
DeSoto, and of these DeSoto made in
1888 52l,00O bushels, and her corn
acreage in 1889 being 76,500 acres
shows plainly that the figures in the
publishers report are typographical
errors. In cotton, all the parishes
have improved except Claiborne and
Beinville, which correspond with the
products of the previous year and is
supposed to be correct. H. III. IL.
The Progress., 1892-12-17

1t has for many years been consid-
cred the great problem eff the South
to raise its own bread and meat We
can see by these figures that if Caddo
has not actually solved this problem,
it surely is on the high road to its
solution by more than 200 per cent.
increase in her corn crops in ten
years. The potato crop is another
important item in our domestic econo-
my. find that in 1879 our crop Of
sweet potatoes was 25,203. which in
1887 had grown to be $4,000, and in
1888 and 1889 to $4,000 bushels. OF
course, to test the financial results
fully we should give not only the
amount of cotton grown but its
moneyed value. In 1879 the 20,963
bales weighed 450 pounds each,
making a total crop of 9,433, $50
pounds, which was worth liz cents
per pound, making total cotton
value of $1,120,l30. In 1859 the
Caddo crop of $4,000 bales, weighing
500 pounds each, made total weight
of II 100000 pounds which that year
was Worth l04 cents, making cash
value OF $1.127 500 or a cash value of
1870 more than ten years previous.
In this connection the cotton seed be-
comes conspicuous item of returns.
In 1879 these seed sold for Sc per ton
and q, 900 bales made 10,500 tons, at
$6, netting $4,000, while in 1889 the
22000 bales made 1000 tons which
sold that year at SO per ton, netting
$ll0,OO0. Again, in this connection
it will be well to say that in 1879 if
the farmer purchased cotton seed oil
he paid As cents per gallon, while if
he purchased any in 1889 he only
paid "a cents per gallon. If our peo-
4 pie made 100000 bushels of corn in
1889 and had no surplus, then it fol-
lows that they certainly required that
amount III 1879. Deducting our crop
of l56, ,11S bushels made in 1879 from
what we needed and must have got
ten from the West, we conclude that
we purchased 323, ,Ss2 bushels, which
at that date was worth So cents per
bushel fob, or about 60 cents here,
which carried away our domestic
wealth to the extent of 1884, 20
which our people saved in 1889.
Another great drain upon our people
Is the annual outlay for mules which
Levi Cooper informs me was about as
follows: In the fall Of 1879 and
sprirg OF 1850, 1,750 mules at an
average Price OF Sl20 each, equaling
an outlay out of the crop of 1879
<2l0000, while in the fall of 1889 and
spring OF 1890 there were sold 1900
mules at an average price of $780,
. equaling an expenditure of Sl69, 1000,
or 1000 less in the ten years. OF
course, this total amount saved was
not saved exclusively to Caddo far
mers, but some part of it, say one
nth. was for our benefit. Mr.. Cooper
says that the difference of so in the
cost was was result of the best mules
ever sold ON this market. lie reports
mat two years later, or in 1891, the
humber OF mules was as low as $50
bead. Another very considerable
tem IS the annual expenditure fof
tagging and ties, which was in 1879.
