Immigrants Who Remain Aliens.

In the six New England States,
 the only part of the country in
 which the number of aliens is yet
 known, fully one half of all the
 adult males of foreign birth have not been naturallzed. This is sur prisingly high proportion, and it points to a great increase in recent years of the least desirable class of immigration-that which is com posed of persons who come to the United States to use the country as the Chinese do, merely to accumu- late little money in, without any desire or intention of making 1t their permanent home and becom- ing identified with it's National life and interests. The French Cana dians, who have lately increased very rapidly in New England, are largely of this transient class of immigrants, and comparatively few of them ever become citizens. In other parts of the country a great number of the Italians and many of the Slavs belong to the same wholly alien element of the popu- lation, and it is probable that the complete census returns will show the presence in the United States of fully 100000 adult males of foreign birth who have not been naturalized. This is very import ant political and sociological fact. The Cleveland Leader.

Jay GOuld'S Wealth.

It is safe to say that MT. Gould
 is now in position where it is inn
 possible to beat him. He is worth
 $1O0,OOO,O0O. The Western Union
 and Manhattan properties, in which
 over half his means are represented, are independent properties, practi- cally monopolies, and are not sub- ject to influences affecting other other concerns whose securities are dealt in on the stock exchange. A railroad rate war or protracted "hard times" would probably make a great difference in his holding of the securities of the Missouri Paci- fic and the allied roads, amounting all told to some $25,OOO,OOO. It is difficult to see how, under any cir there could be shrink age of over one fourth in Mir. .Gould's wealth, and it is liable to even greater improvement. Mir. Gould speculates nowadays to no great His ambition to acquire riches has been satisfied. It used to be the object of his life to make himself the richest man on earth. He has found out. however, that one may acquire so much that it is a burden to take care of it, Globe Democrat.

Before court convened yesterday morning, John Clay, the notorious horse thief, sent for the district at torney and told him that if he would dismiss one of the three in- against him for grand larceny, he would plead guilty to one and fight the other As MT. Cox refused to do anything of the kind, the young man plead not guilty to the whole lot and says he will fight it to the bitter end, though what his fighting chances are have not been stated.-Arizona Gazette.

The readers of the Liberal will remember an account telegraphed from Phenix, telling how G. R. Montgommery had been killed in the San Simon valley. Montgom- cry come in from his mine Sunday and pronounced the story lie. He said he never had been killed, he knew the story was a lie as soon as he heard it. The only way to account for the starting of the story is that the press reporter at Phenix thought it was about time some one was kill in the San Simon, that it would be as good a job to kill off Montgom- cry as any one and so did so. Montgomery says he don't like to have such stories told about him, they hurt his credit; when he tried to buy some goods in town the next day they were refused him, the mer- chant saying he was dead, he de- nied it but it was useless, no one would take his word against the San Francisco Chronicle, and he had to go out and bring witnesses to prove he was alive before he could get credit for sack of flour.

Complaint is being made at the present high price of camphor gum. While a few years ago the gum sold for nineteen to twenty-five cents a pound, it now sells from fifty-fve to seventy-fye cents. This rise in price is due to the use of camphor gum in the manufacture of smoke less powder in both Europe and America. It is being withdrawn from the war against moth flies to engage in war between their perse- cutors.

Senator Calls Cuban Scheme.

mere IS no question that CuDt , occupies such a position geograph ically and strategically as to render it's acquisition by the United States
 in many respects desirable. Ii
 would, no doubt, be of important
 value to the commercial and agri-
 cultural development of the island could it be brought under American
 influences. These may be stated as
 general propositions to which no serious exception can be taken.
 Yet so long as Cuba continues to be one of the most valuable of Spain's possessions, to the relin- punishment of which the Spanish Governmenthas always been strong | ly opposed, is it not inadvisable to persist in agitating a projec which upon the face of it is impracticable and only calculated to arouse sus- picion and misunderstanding at Madrid?
 Senator Calls present proposi- ton, it is true, does not provide for the direct purchase of Cuba and it's incorporation within the domain of the United States, but for the es- tablishment upon the island, with the consent of Spain, an indepen- dent republic, free from all foreign domination, in consideration of which this country is to buy out the interests and rights of Spain in Cuba, and leave the mixed popula- ton that is left to set up govern ment of their own. It occurs to the Post that the ownership of the United States would thus become as absolute as though the property were bought outright, for the new republic would be covered with an American mortgage, which the ear Hest opportunity would be sought to foreclose; and of the two propo- sitions, the one to buy and the oth- CT to secure through a sort of pro- tectorate, the latter wouly doubtless be far the more offensive to Spain.
 It is quite likely that the people of Cuba, many ofthem, would prefer to become united with this country upon almost any terms than to re- main tributary to the Government at Madrid, but we do not see that it is the business of the United States to consult their preferences or to help them, directly or indirect ly, toward the achievement ot their independence. It were better, on the whole, before pressing this mat ter, to wait upon the motions of the mother country. Whenever Spain comes to the conclusion that she has no further use for her Gu ban revenues, or is reduced to the financial necessity of making a forced sale of the island, she will very likely give the United States first opportunity to bid for it. In the absence of any such expression on her part, and in view of the gen. erally credited opinion that noth- ing is so far from her wishes, or in- tentions, or needs, as to part with her American colonies, it would seem to be impolitic, as between two friendly nations, to urge such action upon Congress as MT. Call proposes.-Washlngton Post.

Dr. de la Plumas, a Pima Indian, from the Sacaton Agency, has been in town few days trying his won- derful cures on the Yuma and Co., copah Indians. His treatment con- sists in waving a feather back and forth before the eyes of the sick, mumbling some lingo, enchanting his war-ye-lo and then blowing his breath in the patients face. He says that he can cure any disease, and can drive the witches and devils out of ary wicked Indian.-Yuma Sentinel.

The Land of the Czar.

Hon. Charles Emory Smith mus
 have had a good time as Minister tc
 Russia, for he has returned with
 nothing but pleasant words for the
 land of the Czar. He thinks St. Pe-
 tersburg a more comfortable place of residence than London, Paris or Berlin. The temperature is not subject to the frequent changes which are such fruitful source of illness in the United States. In strong contrast with the situation in most American cities is the fact that no fault can be found with the street-cleaning department. Of es- pecial interest are MT. Smiths views concerning the Russian Govern ment, nihilism and the Czar. He tells the New York Herald that he thinks "the great mass of the Rus sian people are satisfied with the present form of government and believe that it is the best form for Russia" Thie is not in accord with the very general impression, which is that the whole empire is in a chronic state of suppressed rebel lion, but there is no good reason for doubting the accuracy of Smiths view. Another impression which he dispels is that the foreigner who visits Russia is under close and con- stant surveillance so long as he is on Russian soil. Mir. Smith found strictness in the matter of passports, but otherwise there was no more interference than in other European countries.
 The story that the Czar lives in constant fear of assassination and never goes about unguarded Is con- tradicted by Mir. Smith, who many times has seen the Russian ruler in the streets unattended except by a coachman. There is no evidence that nihilIsm is on the increase. The Czar's foreign policy is peace ful, and it is believed that he would be very reluctant to engage in war. These views of Russia and the Rus sians differ materially from those commonly presented to Americans, but Mir. Smith has had good oppor- tunity for judging the situation, and his opinions are entitled to es- pecial credence. Doubtless the gov. ernment of Russia is not ideal neither is it the height of every thing that is evil and tyrannical. Many inhabitants of Russia are of a low order of civilization, and therefore cannot be subjected to the same rules of government that are found measurably efficient in Amer ica. One effect of MT. Smiths work as minister to Russia doubtless will be a better understanding of Russian affairs on the part of the United States, and the consequent strengthening of the friendly rela- tions which have so long existed between the two countries.-Troy | Times.

There is a woman living in Vien- ma, with a most remarkable throat. According to the New York Sun, you can pass probes to all parts of both her throat and larnYx without causing any spasms of the muscles what in ordinary language is called gagging. You can place buttons in various parts of her larnyx and re- move them again and she will suf- fer no discomfort. Why this should be so nobody knows. The most eminent throat specialists in the world have examined her and found no reason for it. Her vocal cords are as pearly white as those found in a typical normal throat. She visits the various clinics of Vienna, and rents her throat out for a gull den an hour to young doctors who wish to gain skill in manipulation. Frau Keller carries her own instru- ments in a little bag, and will per init no others to be used. She is thoroughly versed in the anatomy of the throat, and teaches a young doctor all the parts of the throat, which he must learn to touch.-Ex.

A gentleman who came in from the Tip Top country, states that on last Sunday morning, we'll known prospector who stands six feet in his stockings and wears a No. 13 boot, was enjoying the genial sunshine by taking a ramble on the south side of a hill when he stepped on the tail of monster rattlesnake which was also enjoying sun bath. The first intimation the prospector had of the snakes presence was a sharp, angry hiss, quickly followed by swishing sound as the great snake threw itself in a whiplike semicircle through the air, flashing it's head against the prospector's left top vest pocket, which contain ed large, square plug of chewing tobacco, into which the snake sank its fangs and from which it was un- able to pull them through the cloth vest, and there the snake hung, with it's tail fast under the prospector's boot and its head in few inches of his mouth, thrashing it's body against his overalls with the sound of three hotel chambermaids beat ing q carpet. The prospector stood like one mesmerized. inhaling the sickening odor which rose from the mouth of the hissing snake, with his eyes fastened on the bead like orbs of the enraged reptile. But the snakes struggles grew weaker and weaker, as the tobacco colored ve- nom oozed from the sides of it's mouth the tobacco was making it sick, and, in short time, 1t hung limp, dangling from the prospector's vest like great rawhide rope. The tobacco had made the snake deadly sick, film passed over it's eyes, the charm was broken, a spasmodic movement of the prospector's arm and the reptiles head was crushed against the plug of tobacco, when the mortified prospector fell over unconscious, where he was soon af- terwards found by companion, all tangled up with the dead snake. He was disengaged, restored to con- seriousness and felt for his plug of tobacco, cut out and threw away a bright green piece from the middle of it, took a chew from one corner of the plug and told the above story.

Worlds Fair Notes.


 tons of exhibits for the Exposition have already been collected and are awaiting shipment at Lima and Callao.
 A representative of the Krupp gun manufactory at Essen, Ger many, is about to start for Chicago to make arrangements for an ex- hibit at the Fair.
 Owing to the recent increase of Great Britain's Worlds Fair ap- pr.ation to $3O0,OOO British ex- hibitors will not be charged for space, as at first determined.
 The paper-makers and manufac- turers of paper-making machinery, who formed a stock company with capital stock $1OO,OOO for the pur- pose of making a combined exhibit at the Fair, have raised the full amount.
 The steamship lines covering the west coast of South America have agreed to carry government exhibits free and private exhibits at half price, as far as Panama. Passenger rates also have been greatly reduced.
 It is announced that the Pope has directed that specimens of the beautiful mosaic pictures, made at the mosaic works in the Vatican, shall be exhibited at the Exposition and that at least one picture shall be made expressly for the Fair.
 A monster panorama, 445 feet long 51 feet high, representing the Bernese Alps with the Jungfrau in the background, has been painted for exhibition at the Fair. A pri- vate exhibition ot the work was re- gently given to the press in Berlin.
 A company has been granted the of carrying visitors by lake to and from the Exposition grounds It is planning to run at least four teen steamers. Between the flake front" in Chicago and the grounds, four large boats, two of the whale backs, and all having capacity of 5000 each, will make trips every half hour. The charge will be 15 cents one way and 25 cents for the round trip.
 Worlds Fair Commissioner John Boyd Thacher, of New York, be- ieves that he has got upon the rack of first railway station ever erected in America, and if the struc- ;ure proves to be such he intends o have it transported to Chicago.
 A circular has been issued by the Exposition authorities to all the 'ailway passenger association of the United States and individual roads, asking that a materially reduced | ate be made by the railroads on he occasion of the dedicatory cere- monies next October.
 The fine art exhibit will be much nore extensive than was at first ex- ,ected. Applications for space are coming in so fast that there is no 'oom to accomodate them. Already he foreign commissioners have Isked for 13O,OOO square feet of pace in excess of what can be grant d for foreign exhibits,
 The gold and silver and other mineral exhibits at the Exposition will probably aggregate in value everal million dollars. In exhibits if this description Colorado will naturally take front rank. It is announced that the gold silver mug ,ets to be shown by that State alone re worth a quarter of a million Iollars.

A HEAVY PENALTY.
A Ch;naman is Sentenced to Pay a
Fine of 500 for Assault and
Battery.

Another water right fracas has
been partly settled in the Police
Court. This time it is the assault
and battery case which occurred at
Pauoa, reported previously in the
BULLETIN. The trouble occurred on
October II.
Akana, the Chinaman who was
hurt, has been laid up some time for
repairs of injuries suffered at the
time. Yesterday morning he was
able to appear in the Police Court.
His evidence went to show that one
night out of every nine days the
stream OF water was diverted into his
patches. On this Tuesday night
when the assault took place he had
wendell his way to the place and re-
moved the dam, but his action was
protested against by six other Chi
nese. He did not take any notice,
however, but continued to divert the
water. Then it is alleged he was at
tackled by all of them and knocked
down. The assailants all had BAN
boo sticks and he could not tell who
did the most injury.
In defense the principal witness
stated that he had pulled down the
dam two or three times when the
complainant challenged him to fight.
An agreement had been made pre-
viously which allowed the defend
ants the right of using the water
that night and the complainant an
other night in exchange.
Police Justice Foster reserved his
Judgment until this morning, when
he sentenced one of the defendants,
Ko Kun Chong, to pay fine OF
500 and 81 costs, and discharged
the other five. A. p. Peterson and
j. l.. Kaulukou for the prosecution;
Thurston Il Frear for the defense.
