THE FUTURE UNITED STATES.

By the Beginning Of the Twcnty-srst Century
We viii DO a Homogeneous People.
.'The population of the United States
win increase for many years yet, but
never again in 50 great a ratio as dur
ing the last century, said Professor
Howard w. Shaw. "This country can
support a population of 100000, 900
much more easily than France can sup
port her 40, 100000, but after we touch
the hundred million figure our increase
will be slow. 1t is cheap homes and
high wages that now attract immigra-
ton. Low-priced land will soon disap-
pear, and with it will go high wages,
despite the wisdom of statesmen. Then
instead of constant stream of home
seekers pouring into America, a con-
siderable stream will pour out toward
the fertile lands of South America and
Southern Africa. Uncle Sam will prob
ably begin the twentieth century with
SO, 600. 900 hst will do well if he ends
| it with an increase Of 20,000,OO0. By
that time-the beginning ofthe twenty
first century--we will be homogeneous
people. There will be no longer Irish
Americans and G erman-Americans, but
everybody will be Americans. pure and
. "a + ~
simple.-vThe many streams that are
now flowing th,therward from all parts
of Europe will have been amalgamated
and the result will be one Of the best
balanced and most intellectual people
the world has ever known. 80 lobt

WOULD BE EMPEROR.
The Count Of Paris Who Visited this Country Re-
Gently Close to the Throne Of Franco.

The Count Of Paris Who Visited this Country Re-
GENTLY Close to the Throne Of France.
1t is said that every movement Of
the Count of Paris has been reported
accurately. for more than two weeks
past TO the Ministry Of the Interior
and thence to President Carnot.
In the event Of the Panama scandal
overturning the Republic Of France,
the Count Of Paris, as the head Of the
throne of Orleans. would seize upon
the throne his fancy has dreamed of
for some time.
It will be remembered that this gem
tlemen, at this time nearer the throne
of France than many may now know,
was in this country last year, and was
escorted over the battle field of Ante
tam by Gen Douglas, Of Hagerstown.

An Evil That Should be Remsdied Parents Should
be Strict.
Anew purpose in begging as it is
carried on by, boys, "some in rags,
some in tags" and some in cicai2and

smoked cigars in theirmouths. "Give
me smoke, please ~ is a common ap.
peal heard on the side walks which is
too often aceeeded to by kind hearted
men who give the urchins the half
smoked, often very strong stumps in
their mouths. It is really as injurious
to the boys to be given these stumps as
it is unbecoming for gentlemen to be-
stow such favors upon them. There
should be law to prohibit the sale Of
cigars TO boys, and also the giving OF
them. Parents should be very strict
with their boys in regard to such a bad
habit.
