Chaplain in 1868, although during the
war he acted as minister when there
wasn't fighting to do.
One of his closest friends throughout
the war was Admiral Porter, who
planned with him a daring attempt to
blow up the Confederate flagship Alex
andria, commanded by Admiral Semmes
of Alabama fame.
Admiral Porters instructions we're
given to Chaplain Kane in March,
1865, when the Alexandria lay in the
James river, and Admiral Porter be
lieved that if she could be destroyed
the smoldering embers of the Confed-
eracy would be eXtinguished and the
war would be at an end.
Chaplain Kane, with two trusted
assistants, was commissioned to do the
work which the Union ironClad hardly
dared to attempt He reconnoitered
the position Of the Alexandria and the
other vessels in the fleet and prepar, d
plan by which, on dark night, he
was to float down the river in a small
boat and anchor within a short distance
of the Alexandria with a graphing
above the ship. He was to be pro
vided with cork jacket, and expected
to be able to get under the ships bow
without being noticed and fasten q
torpedo containing 100 pounds Of high
explosives to the chain cable. 1t was
then planned for the Chaplain to be
hauled back by a rope, which he was
to carry with him to 200 yards of the
Alexandria, when he was to pull the
lock string and explode the torpedo
The arrangements were SO carefully
made that the Chaplain still thinks he
could have been successful had the
enemy not blown up their own ships in
order to prevent their capture.
Reference to this heroic intention
was made by Captain William G.
Temple, now Admiral Temple, in a
letter to Secretary Of the Navy Robe
son.
"On one occasion, upon Chaplain
Kane's own application" said he, "Ad-
miral Porter authorized me to organize
an expedition for the destruction Of the
ironcIads in the James River, and he
actually reconnoitered their position
several times by himself at very con
siderable personal risk. When hi!
preparations were just about completed
the Confederates destroyed their iron
clads, which deprived him of tht
opportunity for distinction which I
successful attempt would have secured
HIM"
AT another time Admiral Temple, il
writing of Chaplain Kane, said that ht
found him al all tines for religious o
desperate enterprises equally ready t,
preach the gospel or lead forlorr
hope on the enemy's breastworks."

THE POPULATION OF INDIA.
The Inroads Which Pestilence and Fam
inc Make Into 1t.

The population of the Indian EN-
pire has risen within the memory OF
the present generation from 22o, 900, 900
to ESQ, 900; it has been increasing
at the rate Of 2,5Oo,oO annually, and
is now rising at the rate of 1000, 900.
If no large famines occur it will con
siderably exceed 500, 10000 at the
end of the century drawing to a close.
Even in the event of determination
from these causes there will be an eX-
cess over 800, 100000. This augmen-
tation is coincident with a growth in
means and resources of livelihood, and
in material prosperity of all kinds. The
export of food grains in vast quantities
continues.
The average population in the
Indian empire is very moderate, Fer
all that, the density in some parts is
considerable, and in other parts too
great. On the other hand, there is a
large quantity Of cultivable land still
unused, the extent of which can be
fully known by experience alone Fur
Their, the existing cultivation can be
made more and more productive by
agricultural science, by development of
irrigation in detail and by improved
appliances for husbandry.
PestilenCe, which in former centuries
occasionally stalked through the land,
still turks in many places. 1t is kept
down by sanitation, by the diffusion OF
medical education among the natives,
and by the publication of the water
supply. The water works are to be
found in almost every town. In the
great cities they may be compared with
anything Of their kind in any country,
The check on population, as imposed
by sickness, will be gradually lessened
Then there is the terrible check re-
sulting from famine or scarcity, The
recorded experience Of more than a
century shows that this scourge has
appeared in one quarter or another
once in every three yeers.
Its occurrence is extremely probable
II springs from atmospheric conditions
which may be partially controlled, but
cannot be wholly averted by the power
of man. It's terrible power is in part
weakened by railway communication
supplying the markets which have been
depleted from scarcity Its area may
be in some degree limited by irrigation
works. The conservation and propa-
CATION of forests will improve the sup.
ply of moisture in the country, But no
Administration can guarantee security
against loss of life from hunger and
from the many ailments which ensue
after a period of physical depression.
Therefore the population will be checked
in some degree by famine, The loss
from that cause appears to be about
100000 annually in cycle of years.

seems to be the burning ques-
ton Of the day, and one we
had rather leave to wiser heads
than ours to solve; and while
great statesmen are wrestling
with this momentous question,
we want to have a little 'bO7v-

that concern you as

Has it not occurred to you
that you've been wearing that
old hat long enough In these
progressive times if you intend
to be "in it, " you've got to keep
pace with fashion. No matter
how otherwise we'll dressed
you may be, unless your hat is
the correct thing you bear a
shabby appearance.
We have already laid in
stock of the Latest Hats of the
coming Spring and Summer
styles, in hard felts, soft felts
and straws, and including a line
of the celebrated FEDORA "
Hats, at present all the rage in
the United States. There is
therefore, no necessity for you
to hang on any longer to that
old Tile that bears such a
strong resemblance to the hat
your father wore.
Believing that business will
be better in the near future, we
have not hesitated to keep our
stock full in all lines. Take
collars for instance We have
almost everything you could
wish for. If you wear stand
ing collar, just come in and
take a look at our Narenta

For instance, both soul may lose.
Both have been tanned; Both are made

And both in time will turn to mould.
