Iananesa in America.

There is strong desire on the part of
young Japanese to come to the United
States to acquire or perfect themselves
in the English language and complete
their education. The welcome given to
earlier students has led many who have
entirely insufficient means to undertake
the journey-to come, indeed, with
scarcely more than enough,to pay their
passage to this country. Others, better
provided for, have no idea of the in
creased cost of living here, while many
hope to receive aid from persons who
may become interested in them here or
to find some employment while they are
carrying on their studies.
The practical results are not always
fortunate, and many of the students re-
ferred to would be better off at home.
The reputation of having been educated
in Europe or America has certain value
at present in Japan, however, and the
Japanese students are, almost without a
single exception, credit to their native
country Philadelphia Ledger.

worms THAT Raise Tons Of sand.


Mr.. G. Dawson has examined the
sands between Holyland and the coast
of Northumberland, a large fat stretch
of beach familiar to most persons who
travel by the east coast route to Scot
land. The observer found that the
number of castings of sand thrown up
by the lobworms gave an average of
50,000,000 to the square mile. A por-
tion of the castings was weighed, and
the total weight thrown up annually
was thus shown to be, in some places.
about 901 tons per acre; at other points
it was good deal less than this; but in
still other parts it amounted to no less
than 3,146 tons per acre.
If all the sand thus passed through
the bodies Of those animals in the course
of twelve months were spread out it
would give an average thickness of not
less than thirteen inches. How many
and various are the changes produced in
the sand by the wonderful activity of
these industrious worms it is impossible
to say. But it is easy to see how the
presence of such creatures in large num-
bers operates with other forces to pro-
duce kind of order on the surface of
the earth, and to replace crudeness by
beauty.
The thing that strikes one most, how
ever, is the magnitude of the results
which can be produced in short time
when large number of separate ind1-
viduals work in cooperation by the
same methods toward the same end

rhe RAT as a disease Distribusor.


Nowhere is it possible for the ubiqui-
tous rat, if diseased, to do more certain
harm as disease transmitter than in
the farmyard and the barn. Here he is
almost on intimate terms with the cat
tie and the horses. He mouths their
food in feeding himself from the man
ger, he sleeps in the hay they eat and
frequently they inhale his poisoned
breath. The milk cows product has
often done its mischief in the household
of the farmer or in the families of the
dairyman's customers long before Brin-
dies OF Sukey's unhealthy condition is
rightly understood.
The seeds of consumption are sown
broadcast; the scientist discovers that
the cow has distributed them, but the
question Glow came the COW by the
germs of this terrible disease?" is never
answered except conjecturally. The
afflicted rat has given up the ghost, but
not until he has transmitted his disease
to fellow rodents and other animals; the
COW dies or is killed and the surgeons
examination of her interior reveals the
presence of the death bearing tubercles;
but the seeds of consumption go on to-
ward fruition in the bodies of human
beings, and the manufacture of the dis
ease continues in the barn.
There is no excise law to check or in
any way regulate the spread of the dis
ease germs, and the unlicensed dealers
keep on peddling out their poison till the
last one dies or until in obedience to
some mysterious mandate the whole
colony emigrate.-Dr. S. E. Weber's
Lecture.

Setting the verdict Alright.

Years ago an elderly and brusque
jurist from SanduslSy used to hold dis
trict court here, and on one of his visits
beautiful young woman was tried be-
fore him and jury on charge Of steal
ing eighty-five dollars from man. She
was clearly proved guilty, but the jury,
impressed by her youth and beauty,
found verdict of not guilty.
"Mr. Clerk, remarked the old judge.

ecuting witness. it having been clearly
proved in this court that the defendant
stole it from him, and you may also pay

The Right Use of Language.

A language belongs to those who know
best how to use it, how to bring out all
its resources, how to make it search its
Golfers around for the pity OF canorous
phrase that suits the need, and they who
can do this have been always in a pitiful
minority. Let Us be thankful that we,
too, have a right to it and have proved
our right, but let us set up no claim to
vulgarize it. The English of Abraham
Lincoln was so good not because he
learned it in Illinois, but because he
learned it of Shakespeare and Milton
and the Bible, the constant companions
of his leisure. And how perfect it was
in its homely dignity, its quiet strength,
the unerring aim with which it tstruck
once nor needed to strike moret The
language. is alive here and will grow.
Let us do all we can with it but de-
base it.
Good taste may not be necessary to
salvation or success in life, but it is one
of the most powerful factors of civiliza-
! tion. AS people we have q larger share
of it and more widely distributed chan l
at least have found elsewhere, but as a
nation we seem to lack it altogether.
Our coinage is ruder than that of any
country Of equal pretensions, our paper
money is filthily infectious, and the en-
craving ON it, mechanically perfect as it
is, makes of every bank note a mission
ary of barbarism. This should make
us cautious of trying our hand in the
same fashion on the circulating medium
of thought. james Russell Lowell in
Harpers.

Two Indian swords.

The swordstick, or 'sgupti," is of In
dian origin. There is one form of it
which is peculiar to chiefs and men Of
rank. The hilt of the sword, forming
the handle of the stick, is crutch shaped,
and the owner, when lying on his divan,
would have his arm resting upon this,
so as never to be taken quite unarmed.
It was called in Persian ''talziah-i-zafar, !"
or ..cushion of victory" Another form
of concealed sword was made so fexi-
hle as to be worn around the waist like
o girdle. Chambers Journal.

VIRTUE ~ DIES.

The Rathdrum Reporter "has

dead. Its body is in possession of
Sheriff Mcclure and its spirit is in
sheol, or ought to be.
The Reporter started out as a
party organ. 1t was going to do
wonderful things. 1t was going to
be an awful good paper-clean and
with a high standard of political
morals. 1t denounced indepen-
dent papers as necessarily low down
sheets.
Well, the Independent HERALD
lives and fourishes and grows,
while the Reporter is dead and
damned.
The Reporter published two is
sues, buncoed certain citizens of
Rathdrum out of several hundred
dollars, folded its tent like the Arab
and attempted to silently steal
away. It's reputed proprietor, Geo,
P. Wheeler, is gone but not for
gotten. Those interested attempted
to load the plant on the cars be-
tween two days and make away
with it, but in this they were
thwarted, and at last accounts it
was in the sheriffs hands.

campaigns by various methods.
Most of them prefer the still hunt.
They do not want the voters to
know what they are up to. 1t is
such candidates as these that elect
ors should keep their eyes upon,
for should they by trickery and
chicanery secure nomination and
election there is no doubt but that
he would be tricky in office.
The old-fashioned theory of the
office seeking the man has gone out
of date. An office seeking the man
is novelty nowadays, and in con-
formity to the present system it is
far more honorable that a man
should announce his intentions in
the most public way and let the
public know that he seeks the
honor, rather than pursue that other
method of keeping the public in
the dark and confding only to
strikers and heelers.
Let voters beware of those candi-
dates who are ashamed to come out
through the public press
and announce their political aspir-
atoms.

REPUBLICAN NOMINEES.

The republicans have renomi-
mated Benjamin Harrison for pres
ident and selected Whitelaw Reid
as candidate for vice-president.
The nominations are eminently re-
spectacle, to say the least
The record of Benjamin Harrison
needs no commentary. 1t is known
to every American citizen. His
administration has been able, clean
and free from reproach.
AS to Whitelaw Reid, he has
been prominent figure in the
councils Of the Republican party
for many years, and as editor of
of the New York Tribune has had
much to do with directing the
course of the republican party. He
is a strong man.
The nominees of the Republican
party are strong, respectable men
and fairly represent the principles
of the party.
But having said this, one incon-
trovertable fact remains. The
country does not enthuse over Har-
rison and Reid. Particularly is
this true of the Pacific coast. There
is an unnamable something about
Benjamin Harrison that does not
attract the enthusiastic admiration
usually accorded to party leader.
The Pacific coast was disap-
pointed when the news was flashed
over the wires that Harrison had
been nominated. The hopes of the
west were cruelty dashed to pieces,
so far as the republican party was
concerned, when Blaine was de-
feated.
The Pacific coast loved James G.
Blaine for his matchless leadership,
for his great ability and for his
sympathy for western wants. Blaine
was friendly to the cause of silver,
though perhaps not a free coinage
man. Blaine was the author and
the advocate of reciprocity. But
for him the third section of the
Mckinley act would never have
been inserted. Reciprocity with
Canada would do more than a dozen
Mckinley acts without the third
section. With Blaine there was
far more hope of a reciprocity
treaty.
1t is a common expression among
republicans, eve will vote for Har-
rison, but and there they pause.
Why? Probably a vision of Blaine
fits across the mind, and while
they will vote for Harrison, they
connot feel overly enthusiastic since
his nominition was the defeat of
their hope, their idol and their
leader of leaders.
