The Manufacture of Wild Men.

There are many curious trades in
the world, but the most strange
must surely be the artificial manu-
facture Of wild men," Yet a well
known English doctor in China has
Just certified from his own personal
experience that this art is regularly
practiced in the F1owery Kingdom.
First a youth is kidnapped; then
bit by bit he is 1ayed alive, and the
skin of a dog OF bear is grated piece
by piece upon him. His vocal chords
are next destroyed by the action of
charcoal to make him dumb, and
the double purpose of causing "etio-
lation" of the skin and utter degra-
dation of the mental faculties is eff
fected by keeping him immured in a
perfectly black hole for a number of
years. In fact, by treating him like
a brute for a sufficiently long time
he is made into one.
At last he is exhibited to the en-
tirely credulous Chinese as a wild
man of the woods, and his possessors
reap a rich harvest. The priests, it
seems, are adopts at the art. When
a kidnaper, however, is caught by
the people he is torn to pieces, and
when the authorities get him they
torture him and promptly behead
him. -London Chronicle.

charges which has recently been trump
ed up against him. His argument is
found in part on the front page of this
issue. He was pleasing throughout and
received laundering cheers as he bore
down on the main parts of his forciblc
argument.
Coy. J. Z. Richards was next intro
duccd. He has been enormously stack
ed up by many of II citizens as pos
scssing no worth as an orator. But he
very agrceably surprised all such
in the clear and maiterly manner
in which he presented the republican
cause. He spoke for the reelection of
Harrison. He referred to the states
manship which that man has displayed
in his four years of executive power.
He emphasized the i"n),"tl:t J.. d.
ing the Legislative ticket republican in
this county. He held the audience spell
bound while he referred to the great
consideration which Montana has %receiv-
ed in the present administration and to
the benefit our citizens derive from a
support Of the principles of protection.
His speech was forciblc, logical and
convincing. 1t was pleasing to all ANA
showed in the expression of every line,
the Astounding manhood and firm resolu-
ton of tn" speaker. He spoke briefly
for the election of Fred. w. Wright can
didaie Cor State Treasurer who was pres
ent, and commended his record of IN
swerving honesty to the consideration
of every voter.
Next was introduced Sen. W. f

Washington Named 1t.

The question, who named the
Empire State3' is often asked, but
seldom properly answered. General
Washington is the man to whom that
and many other honors belong. Ii
his reply to the address of the com
mon council of New York city" the
great general said: Il pray that
heaven bestow its choicest blessings
on your city, that a well regulated
and beneficial commerce may enrich
your citizens and that your state Cat
present the seat Of empire) may set
such examples of wisdom and lib
crafty as shall have a tendency to
strengthen and give a permanency
to the Union at home and credit and
responsibility abroad"
This is of course an i%nferential al
fusion, but was the origin of New
York's popular name nevertheless.

Mark for Young ExnlorerS.

People are accustomed to think
that all the world has now been en-
plored except central Africa and the
! polar regions. AS a matter of fact,
there are portions of the American
continent which are as completely
unknown to science as any part of
equatorial Africa. Within the last
ten years a young American natural
ist has won renown by his explora-
tons in the basin Of the Amazon in
Brazil, and a vacation expedition of
college students in Labrador has re-
suited in important additions to geo.
graphical knowledge.
Lieutenant Schwatka's explorations
in Alaska and his visit to hitherto
unknown tribes Of cave dwellers in
northern Mexico revealed the fact
that fields are still open on this con-
tinent in which young men with a
serious purpose, a scientific educa-
ton and a strong body may distin-
guish themselves in geographical and
chronological research.
In 1890 two large rivers, hitherto
unknown tributaries Of the Amazon,
were discovered by ~naturalists. A
great part of Guiana, and a still
greater part of the vast region inn
mediately to the eastward of the
Andes, extending from the frontier
of Venezuela to the Argentine Re-
public, remain unknown lands, SO
far as certain knowledge is con-
cerned.
Should it all be gone owe and &C
~curately mapped, there would still re-
main to be learned many facts about
it, as well as about the regions al
ready known, which are Of the high
est scientific interest, and in the
study Of which distinction might be
gained.-Youth's Companion.

Hon Cultivation in the Northwest.

The cultivation Of hops is a source
of large income to the state of Wash
ington. The hop was first cultivated
in the Puyallup region in 1866, and
with such results that in 1890 the
crop was sc, 900 bales, about half of
which was grown in Puyallup fields.
That crop was marketed for $2,O0o,-
900. The industry has spread into
the valleys of the White, Stuck, Sno-
homish and Skagit rivers, all to the
westward of the Cascades, at the
feet Of which rich valleys of alluvlal
soil Of great depth have been formed;
Since it is known that one hopyard
in England has been uninterruptedly
cultivated for 800 years, there IS no
reason to look for a wearing out OF
the rich soil of west Washington

Zens had met to give an informal'recept-
ion. Advocates of all parties alike
shared in the joyous con~gratulation
upon their arrival, and extended the
friendly greeting. The Governor had
never been here before. but Senator
Sanders spoke six years ago in a log sal
loon on the immortal principles of re-
publicanism. He gave a powerful adj
dress when the rail road was completed
into Neihart at the driving of the
silver spike. His visit was not only
to form new acquaintance but to re-
new old and nndearing friendships.
Everybody was ready to hear the two
able gentlemen in what they had to say.
At : o'clock everything was in readi-
mess. Republican committees, who
drop nothing half done, had called the
long marching company to the Hall
where, with the Ncihart Cornct band at
its head, the march was made to the
Frisco hotel. A heavy fusilade of giant
powder was going on at either side of
the town. At the hotel, the speakers
with attendants in carriages headed the
countcrmarch up Main street while on
every hand the most brilliant pyrotech-
meal display was seen. Houses were
Illuminated with Chinese lanterns and
sperm candles in ~cXtravagant pIofusion.
Greek fire, Roman candles, rockets and
all the catalogue of scintillating and
flaming instruments were turned loose
so that everything gave token that eX-
t%raordinary guests were being entertain
ed. and that the rejoicing was general.
At 8 o'clock the crowd at tie hall was
called to order. 1t was an immense
throng. Chairman McAsscy stepped to
the front of the platform and introduced

briefly but ably in support Of his candi-

Wanted His Fiction Doctor

The novelist, seated at his work
table, the dramatic writer imagining
the play which is to attract and Stir
the public, is inevitably constrained
to a sort of auto-suggestion. They
must really see their characters live
and act, and, what is more, they sec
life as their heroes see it. Therec can
be no really engrossing creation
without this fusion of created and
creator. Balzac, dying, sent them to
look for DR., Bixion, the great phys
ician of the "Comedie Humane. "
"Only Bixion can save me! If Bixior
does not come, if they do not find
Bixion, l am lost!' Thus was life at
tached to his dream. Jules Clarette
in North American Review.

PROTECTION.

BLESSED Is the man w.,o daily tries
To better his condition.
And does his best to keep his trade
From foreign competition.
Be it in iron. brass or tin,
1t should not be neglected,
AS home industry is a thing
Which ought to be protected.
Can 1t be right to patronizs
A nation that engages
To undersell another land
BY paying pauper wages?
And it will come to that at home
If there is no objection
Against it by the workingman
Assisting for protection.
Protect your home and freslde'
Protect a friendly neighbor,
But, above all, protect yourself
Your country and its labor
Or YOU will find when it's too late
BY sad and sore reflection.
That you have made a grand mistake

Oh, the beds of great aaople that
they show us on this side of the wa
ter, some so big and so pompous,
some SO small, and all SO in charac-
ter! There is that belonging to
Louis XIV at Versailles, as difficult
to mount as many a monarch has
found his throne. What a lofty,
magnificent affair it is, with its os-
trich plumes at the four corners Of
its canopy, its carvings and splendid
hangings. But never a bed for &c
pose nor for one forgetful moment,
but a bed for great affairs Of state,
a bed to do homage to, to cringe and
crawl before, but not to touch with
tender hand.
Then there is the bed Of the great
Napoleon. No pomp, no maSnltl-
cence-the emperor who slept there
went to bed a soldier. Then there is
the bed of that comfortable, kindly
king at Versailles, whose own side of
the couch was made upon a hard,
fiat board, while the side where his
wife slept was made upon down, and
smooth coverlids concealed all dis
crepancy of taste.

The IiUhfeSt Metal.

Some people seem to think that
aluminium is the lightest metal in
the world" said a gentleman who
deals in all the fancy articles now
made of that commodity, but that
is a mistake. The specific weight of
magnesium is only one-third of that
of aluminium, and is even more hard
and durable. It is not as useful,
however, as it catches fire very east
ly, even at the open hearth. 1t is
not destined to crowd the popularity
of aluminium, although up to a short
time ago it was even the cheaper of
the wo."-Cincinnati Commercial
