homes or making some product Of their own in
them. A great many Of these cellar rooms form
the working places Of the people by day and
their sleeping places by night Many OF them
are so made that a draft cannot be sent through
them. and when IL Is remembered that some Of
them are six feet below the sidewalk it will be
easily seen that they are not fit for the resi-
dences OF human beings. / have visited quite
a number of the cities Of Germany and find
that this fat system prevails in all the large
towns. Hamburg, which has been so badly
hurt by the cholera, is a whited sepulcher. 1t
has beautiful buildings, but some Of the streets
are so narrow that you could hardly drive a
wagon load Of hay through them, and there are
thousands of cellar tenements. There are a
number Of houses there which have hundreds
Of families in them. and the same 10 true of
Leipsic and Dresden. More than half the
people in Leipsic paw less than hundred dol
lars year for rent, and these people live in
quarters where they cannot have more than two
heated rooms. The city has good building regu-
lations, it il true. but the people manage to get
around them, and this is in nearly every
German city. Part of the Leipsic regulations
are that every living room shall have at least
one window open to the air and that the cellar
rooms shall be at least nine feet high But the
houses are crowded and the poorer the quarters
the more people You find in them. Even the
halls let out to night dodgers and the stories
of how women and men Of different families are
crowded together in single rooms present
bad picture as found in some places of Rus
STA. The people here are alive to the condition
of the working classes in this respect, and not
long ago a member of the reichstag gathered a
large amount of facts about the homes of the
working people here. and from these verified
statements some of the above figures are taken.
Reports we're collected from all the laboring
centers, and it is on the basis Of these that
movements have been undertaken to better the
laborers condition.

The Swedish Glover.

Possibly the most remarkably instance
of foreign travel in plant is in connection
with the Swedish clover. When Linn@us
first saw it in Sweden it was comparative
ly scarce, and he supposed it to be hybrid
between the red and the white clover and
named it Trifolium hybridum. He could
not have been believer in modern prop
osition that hybrids are sterile, though
there are few sterile instances, as this
clover is abundantly productive, whether
receiving the attention of bees or not. In
America it was barely known ten or fifteen
years ago. At that time some sharp eyed
and nimhle legged botanists were over
joyed at seeing plant here and there
about Montreal.
Now the traveller, with his eyes out Of
the car window, may see it in abundance
everywhere. On Mount Desert island it is
nearly as common as the white or red
clover Its notified white and red flowers,
and particularly sweet odor, make it a
favorite wild flower bunch for the ladies.
1t is in most of the hotel vases as parlor
prnaments.-Thomas Meehan in Phila-
delphia Ledger.

An Indifferent Officer.

A correspondent, writing of the late
Lord Strathnairn, says he was the most
indolent, lackadaisical, languid person
who ever dawdled along Piccadilly. When
he was devastating central India and win
ming the splendid victories that immor-
tallzed his name he was so lazy that he
could not be got to dictate the dispatches
recording his own triumphs Months
elapsed before these documents could be
extracted from him, and then they were
brief and meager to the last degree. One
day, when Sir Hugh Rose, he was enter
tanning gallant company to dinner dur
ing the crisis of the mutiny.
With the utmost sang froid he was de-
lighting those near him with one of his
best anecdotes. In the middle of it his Or
derby entered, and after saluting exclaim-
ed, "We have captured 200 rebels, sir"
To him the general turned, and with that
elegant courtesy of manner on which he
prided himself. serenely replied, 'sThank
you, sergeant" But the man still re-
manned. Again interrupting his chief, he
said, "But what are we to do with them,
sir?"
"Oh," replied Sir Hugh, with soft
smile, hang them of course" and he re-
sumed his anecdote.
In little while Sir Hugh was again in
terrupted in the middle of another story
by the sergeant, who came in and said,
please, sir, we've hung the lot, sir" The
general turned, bowed slightly and in the
sweetest manner lisped, Thanks, sergeant
very many thanks" and then went on
with his anecdote as if nothing had hap
pened. This story came to the ears of the
queen, and she was SO angry that it nearly
cost Sir Hugh his pecrage. Million.

:Cides ON the Great Lakes.

It has been said there are no tides on the
great lakes. Yet every seafaring man at
the city of Green Bay says there are tides
here. The Green Bay people are certain of
the tides, because they have seen them
and have been seeing them ever since they
lived here. The tides come in the morning
and evening. and are highest at a. m. and
Up. NJ. From until Z in the morning the
tide gradually comes in. After that time
it begins to recede, and is at it's lowest
point between II to $50. At the latter
hour the evening tide commences and it
rises continuously until in the evening,
when it begins to recede. The height Of
the tide varies at times trife, but it is
never less than five inches and seldom over
eight inches under ordinary circumstances.
Heavily laden boats of large size are de-
tanned frequently at this point during low
tide waiting for the tide to come in Cap
tains are so certain that there is "a tide that
they will wait for some hours to take adj
vantage OF its movement before attempting
to leave port.
If there is tide in Green bay then there
is a tide on all the inland lakes It may be
too small to be measured, but it is there
just the same. Green bay is shaped not
unlike the Bay of Fundy, where the tides
on the Atlantic are compressed until they
rise to enormous heights. It is not I'M
reasonable to suppose that a tide of half an
inch or an inch from the wide stretch of
waters east and west, reaching several
hundred miles from Georgian bay across
Lake Huron, through the straits of Mack
mac, across the foot of Lake Michigan and
up the long, narrow bay, would be so COM
pressed as to be at last perceptible. It
would be impossible to measure so small a
tide, and scientific men would be justified
IN denying altogether the existence of
lake tlde.-Wisconsin Cor. Chicago Herald

Improvements for s,eenipp Cars

We notice that an attempt is to be made
to ventilate sleeping cars The method
outlined is simple and promises success,
but the most encouraging feature of the
scheme is that it should have occurred to
the sleeping car companies that their
coaches are not already perfect in construc-
tion and management. Perhaps it NAV
now penetrate their minds that the same
covering Is not equally pleasant for their
unfortunate patrons in the tropical nights
of midsummer and in the arctic nights of
midwinter. At present the Sleeper" is
provided only with clammy linen sheets
and heavy double blankets.
1t would seem that in the prevailing
fashion of wooden clothing the companies
might think of furnishing pair of light,
loosely woven blankets, one or both of
which could be used as occasion required.
Such change, with little pure air, would
make night in sleeping car less hor-
rible experience than it is now.-New York
Times,

A Lawyer Humorist.

The late Mr.. Edward Kent Karslake was
an admirable lawyer, and might have made
a great name if he had taken to his work
seriously. But this was just what he was
unable to do. His love of humor was al
most greater than his desire to achieve
forensic victory. This failing somewhat
irritated the judges, who also grew inn
patient at his classical illusions, which he
introduced into the dullest and most tech
nical cases with cleverness which even
they were wont to acknowledge. In open
ing case before the late Vice Chancellor
Hall he said:
''This, my lord, is short cause" which
the judge fully appreciated at the end of
Mr.. Karslake's two days speech. Like
his brother, Sir John Karslake, he was a
very tall man, and related how reporter,
describing the attorney generals appear
ance, innocently wrote, "Sir John Kars-
lake then rose at great length to reply."-

All the mountains of Japan are of un-

month. AS far away as Toxic, sixty miles
northeast, the ashes fell to a depth of
seven or eight inches, while on the To-
kaido, twelve Or fifteen miles southeast,
the accumulation was six feet,-At this
time was formed Ho-yei-san, a secondary
or parasitic cone on the southeast slope.
NO other mountains in Japan reach
within 5000 feet of the elevation of Full.
and it is therefore in prominent view from
an immense area, including thirteen prov
inces of the empire. Certain avenues in
Toxic are called Fuji-mi, or Full viewing
streets, and from all of them the famous
peak is glorious spectacle All winter
