was a surprise, displaying strong mupi-
cal and histronic elements that were
Unexpected after hearing the Merry
Monarch. Miss Laura Moore as Lucia,
with her brilliant rendition OF the aria

FOREIGN PAUPERS AND GRIM
MAILS.

The increase of crime in the
United States is easily acc united for
in the following statements made by
A. A. Hayes, of New York, who has
made a special study of the immigra-
ton for years past. Although the
facts have been known in a general
way TO all reading people, it brings a
a shock when put in. plain, unvarn-
ished English. Mr. Hayes says:
- distinguished Engllshman said
to me recently that tie United States
is a new Botany Bay for England.
As far back as 1881 the Land Com>
mission authorized the Guar dams Of
the Poor to give a million dollar
order to ship pauperisn 70 America
The United States Government III
vain protested, for the paupers
reached the United States just the
same. One committee sent over 5000
paupers to he United States between
1882 and 1886. Another agency for
the emigration Of criminals is in
London. and IL called the prisoners
Aid Society.
80 far as | know they make no
attempt 10 conceal the business they
are engaged in The Jewish Board
of Guardions Of London have shipped
between 1882 and 1856, S8.429 Jew
paupers, principally Russians It
seems curious that Baron Hrsch,
after having made the eotthat
he was going u seua his Russian
Jews To the Arcsut ne Republic,
should be sending "a ~ 10 the nlted
States. Sweden and Germany are
regularly sending their criminals to
America unui recel..s Swltzer~
land did the SAM. and t still re
quires all the vigilance u tho Ameri-
can Counsel in Switzerland to pre-
vent this. As for Italy the fact is
notorious that the worst criminals OF
that country are assisted to emigrate
to the United States and their NUM-
Der is increasing rapidly.

The Nicaragua Canal D..

Next to the loss of Alsace and
Lorraine, no event OF the recent past
has left such ranking chagrln IN
the French heart as the loss Ito En-
gland, of the control of the Suez
Canal. Yet the actual injury to
France, aside from the wound In
fiicted upon the national vanity, was
a very little matter compared with
what the loss of the control of the
Nicaragua Canal would be to this
country.
Senator Morgan of Alabama didn't
exaggerate IN the least, he was speak
ing the words of truth and soberness
when he said in the last Congress:
1.-THE Canal is the most important
project now connected with the com
mercial growth and progress of the
United States. Hartford Coura ut.

The Alameda News suspended
publication Saturday. In its vali>
dictory it says: Excuse US while We
Sleep" You're excused.
George w. Childs intends adding
another to the long list of his bene-
factions by making new public park
not very far from Philadelphia.
The wealth of J. A. Morris, the
head of the Louisiana Lottery, is es-
timated at $50, 900, 900. but he never
succeeded in getting into society.
Begging seems to pay fairly well If
you keep at it long enough. A coun>
try parson in England has written
125, 900 begging letters. His wife
has sent a. many as 1000 and his
children a few thousand more.
Abont one person in every fifty re-
sponded, one to the amount of $780,
600.
Jeremiah Lynch, of San Francisco
is accused of blackmsil. The story IS
briefly, that because Mr.. Flood re-
fused to buy large number OF shares
of Hale & Norcross stock Lynch
threatened him and said he would
insist on Alvinza Hayward buying
the stock if Flood wouldn't, else
HAYWARD would be arrested.
The Homer Index says: A man
weighs less when the barometer Is
high, Notwithstanding the fact that
the atmospheric pressure on him Is
more than when the barometer Is
low. As the pressure OF air on an
ordinary sized man il about fifteen
tons, the rise of the mecury from ~
to 81 inches adds about ton to
the load he has to carry. As the
barometer usually ranges high In
these hills, it partially accounts for
the very great loads under which
men stagger sometimes.

Origin Of Ferns,

An opinion prevails among some
botanists that MOSES existed on the
earth before ferns-and they are there
fore the parents OF this large tribe.
Accepting this view, some have gone
further and adduced facts to show
that the pretty class known as the
"Filmy ferns of which the genus
known as Hymenophylum is the
type, was the first that was developed
land are therefore the oldest class in
the early appearance OF ferns on the
earth. This wonld carry 1.-The exist
ence of farms back to a very remote
period. Principal Dawson Of McGill
College, Montreal, considers our pres .
ent sensitive fern, Onocleas, sensibilis
as having had an existence Of at lease
100000 years. He finds fossil -
mains of this fern. just as We find tho
plant to-day, in strata which geoloe.
ically he may thinks be considered

a LITTLE DOGS PERIL.
How He Was Squeezed by Fat
SlaCksnake.


Frank Schultz cultivates q bit OF
ground along the river at Peach
Bottom. and this year he noticed
that nice, big, fat blacksnake had
pre-empted The place ard slid around
it like man with a state right on
anti-sneezinc snuff. Mr.. Schultz little
dog had seen the blacksnake, too,
and, like a dut iiul dog, he barked at
the snake. hoping to scare it into
other pastures. There wasn't a bit
OF bulge in that bulky blacksnake,
and it paraded around that patch
wherever it pleased, and this made
the little dog mad
The other day the dog trotted out
to the garden, resolved to make war
On the snake or die trying. He barked
and barked until the noise hurt the
blacksnake's head, and with a grace
full glide the snake suddenly sprane up
and, swinging itself around the dog
three times, held it securely. The little
dogs barks became fainter each time,
because the snake was tightening itself
around the barrel OF barks. Mr..
Schultz noticed this, and on going to
the scene OF disturbance saw how his
dog was embraced. With hoe he
cut of the snakes head and set the
dog free, somewhat nervous but very
bold:
