are treated in dozen different topics of
current interest. The readings from

thousands of Men Out of Employment
In New south Wales.
SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 29.-By the ar
rival Of the Alameda we have advices
from Sydney to September 5tn, and from
Auckland to September 9Th:
There does not appear to be any change
Tor The better with regard to the unem-
ployed in New South Wales. and thou
sands of men are awaiting employment,
During the six months the Government
Labor Bureau has been in existence no
less than Ii, 466 men have registered their
names, and employment has been found
for 5,7SS of them.
The Relief Department in connection
with the Government Labor Bureau is
dong good work. Up to the present
nearly 700 families have been relieved at
the expense of the Government, and over
ll,0O0 distributions of rations have been
made.
The strike at the Broken Hill mines
still continues, although partial re-
sumption OF work has been effected. AS
result OF the strike the shipping trade
OF Adelaide has been steadily declining,
and several steamers will shortly be laid
up.
John See, Colonial Treasurer, speaking
at Newcastle on the 10Th Of August, de-
Tended the protection policy of the Gov
eminent. The benefit of the policy. he
claimed, was shown by the fact that al
ready the area Of wheat under crop was
100000 acres in advance of last year. The
depression which existed was due to other
causes.
The German men of-war in the Pacific
have been ordered to prevent the natives
employed by the New Guinea Company
trom serving as laborers in other parts of
the world.
Her majesty's ship Royalist, in COM
mand OF Captain f. FL. NJ Davis, has re-
turned after her trip to the Gilbert, Ellice
and Marshall Islands. The British FLAG
was hoisted at the Gilberts by Captain
Davis, who appears TO have had busy
and interesting trip. III. NJ. S. Curacao is
to hoist the flag in the Ellice group. and
declare British protectorate there as in
the case Of the Gilberts. When in the
G1lberts steamer under the Nicaragua
flag, splendidly fitted up, and apparently
well intentioned, was recruiting and
wanted 600 natives for coffee plantations
III Guatemala. The officers had already
succeeded in getting half the number.
Captain Davis looks with strong disfayor
upon the whole of the traffic, not only at
the Gilberts but at the Solomons, New
Hebrldes and elsewhere.

sioner Haggard had made inquiries about
a piece OF land on the opposite side of the
tiarb0r from swimming Point, nothing
had been done in the matter. The United
States Nice-Consul states that he was of
f1cially notified that the British Govern
ment had no intention of locating a coal
ing station there, and Commissioner Hag-
gard states that his mission to Page Pago
was with reference to some land claims.
1t is still thought here, nevertheless, that
there was some foundation to the rumor.
as every English man-of-war that has
stopped here in the last few years has
maze inquiries as TO suitable place for
coallng station.
Mataafa is still at Male. 1t is said that
some OF the districts which had promised
10 support him have gone over to the
government party, and that an attack
Will be made on him at an early date. He
adheres to his resolution not to commence
war, and there is no doubt some of his
party are dissatisfied in consequence.
The British Government is annexing
all islands in the Pacific that have not al
ready been appropriated. Some time ago
they hoisted their flag at the Union group,
and now the Royalist has done the same
at the Gilbert Islands.

Victoria as q Dairy Farmer.

Not gentleman farmer in England is
tonder OF taking prizes at county fairs
than is Queen Victoria. OF late years
this has been her majesty's chief source
OF pleasure, and she treasures the medals
won by her butter and cheese and the
premiums carried off by her cattle above
the gorgeous tributes of her eastern sub
yects or her German royal relations.
w hen she is at Balmoral not day passes
that she does not personally inspect the
home farm, as it is called, and now and
then advise as to the butter and cheese
making, in which she is especially inter-
ested. Her dairies are almost Dutch in
their exquisite cleanliness, the box stalls
being tiled in blue and white china and
the milking done by maids after the good
Old English custom. 1t is said that the
produce OF these model farms is sold in
London, and that her thrifty majesty
turns many an honest penny in this way.
Well, If she does, what matter? asks the
Philadelphia Times. 1t adds to the inter-
est of farming, no doubt, to make it
profitable, and she is to be congratulated
upon her success. At Windsor herd of
American Guffaloes is kept, and recently
an attempt was made to cross them with
some Scotch cattle. Here also is the famous
poultry house, filled with cocks and hens
that have taken prizes all over the United
Kingdom.

WITH A BUSINESS METHOD
The Cashier Had Only One Question
Ask, but 1t Was 81 Poser,

The Cashier Had Only One Question to
Ask, but 1t Was Poser.
He was courteous man and had been
the old gentleman's cashier for a mum Der
OF years. He was implicitly trusted, but
well, when some suggested to the old
gentleman that he was remarkably atten-
tive to his daughter the old gentleman
looked solemn. He did not exactly APP
prove of that. But the young man was
courteous and he had pleasant, convinc-
ing way of putting things. He didn't in
dite letter to the old gentleman; he did
not walk into his office hesitatingly, as if
expecting a rebuff, and he didn't enter
with the air of bold, bad man who does
not intend to be 'bluffed." He entered
in quiet, business-like way and said:
Il have been your cashier for ten or
twelve years, Mr.. MillbankS."
Something like that | believe" re-
sponded the old gentleman, looking at
him inquiringly.
Think my record during that time has
been good" went on the young man.
Excellent" was the reply.
81 come of good and honorable fam
ily."
The old gentleman began to see what
was coming and he prepared for it, but.
the Detroit Free Press says, he admitted
the truth of the assertion.
You have never had to have nv books
examined by an expert" persisted the
young man.
Never"
Very well. There is matter of some
importance to you and me that should
like to speak about to you"
Proceed" said the old man, coldly,
feeling that the moment for firmness had
come.
Would you prefer me to marry your
daughter here or in Canada?" asked the
cashier, pleasantly.
-" began the old man, rather
startled; "1-Marry her here, my boy!
Marry her here! I'd rather have you in
this country"

Natives Restless and Another Out

APIA (Samoa(, Sept. 29.-Government
affairs in the Samoan Islands are still
dragging on, although the Treasury is
nearly empty. Some time ago King
Malietoa ordered a small boat from San
Francisco, and when the bill therefor.
$500, was presented, the King and Score
tary of State certified that the amount
was correct. Baron Senft Won Pilasch
the Treasurer, declared, however, that he
could not honor the account, as he did not
have that sum in American or English
gold and the builders refused to take
German money, so the amount has not
been paid, and the Kings credit is dam
aged considerably.
\ alive taxes are coming in very slowly.
One district, FaSaleleaga, is only paying
81 each tor every head of a family. All
funds received are being expended by
the Government in salaries. The Munich
pal Council still refuses to authorize the
collection of the property tax until the
three Treaty Powers reply to their pro-
test against customs revenue being taken
away, though the Chief Justice has ruled
that the collection OF the tax should be
made at once.
Lieutenant J. II. C. Coffin, [. S. n.
who returns to San Francisco by the
steamer Alameda, has completed the sur
vey for the wharf at Pago Page for the
United States Government. The struct-

The Indian Cucumber.

The Indian cucumber is sort of lily.
which grows in great abundance in al
most every part of this country, and is
said to be an excellent remedy for the
dropsy. The best part of the cucumber
is the root, which grows in the size OF
tive inches in length by one inch in
thickness, and was formerly eaten raw
by the Indians just as we eat cucumbers.
Its medicinal virtues were discovered by
some old woman in Pennsylvania, and
afterward admitted by the doctors, which
is not the only case of the efficacy OF an
old woman's remedy being acknowl-
edged by the medical profession.

The Bite Of a Snake.

The heads of most of the venom Gus
snakes, including the "rattlers," bulge
just beyond the neck. Without except
ion they have fangs, either always
erect, OF raised and laid back at will.
These fangs are long, and sharp pointed
teeth, with a hollow groove running
their entire length. At the root of
each fang is little bag of poison.
When the snake bites, the motion press
es the poison sac, and its contents flow
down through the hollow in the tooth
into the puncture or wound. The
harmless little forked tongue is often
spoken of by the uninformed as the
snakes ''stinger." Now, as there is no
propriety in the name, as the poisonous
snakes do not sting, but bite, their vic
TINS. There is no creature, even if
brought from foreign countries where
"rattlersn do not exist, but will halt
and tremble at the first warning sound
of the rattle.
DR.. S. Weir Mitchell, with others, has
been making experiments with the
venom of different serpents. He has
found that, aside from its poisonous
qualities, it contains living germs,
which have the power of increasing
enormously fast. So, you see, when an
animal is bitten, these tiny bits of life,
entering with the poison, cause harmful
action to begin almost at once. DR..
