Dueling in Austria.

Baron Won Bauer, Austrian Minis
ter of War, said at a sitting of the
Budget Committee of the Austrian
delegation the other day, that the
present condition of society did not
permit of the abolition of dueling.
He did not approve of duels in prin-
ciple, but many classes of the popula-
tion would not, in the event of the
abolition of dueling, adopt any less
forcible method of settling their diff
ferences, but would have recourse to
srougher MEANS" the fist, the stick,
or the revolver. In his opinion there
was nothing TO be said against an Of
ticer who might decline to fight a
duel. but he recommended those op-
posed to dueling to avoid the society
of those by whom they might be in.
suited. and to take care mot to offend

"Here is letter from q friend of

Detroit hotel the other evening, a.
he held the epistle in his hand, and
1t relates to verv serious circurn-
stance. Without the letter here to
back me up should not have dared
to tell tho story"
He was asked to drive ahead. says
the Detroit Free Press, and after
another glance at the letter he con-
tiued:

''Five years agI built me house

me 5000 extra to get things SO ar
ranged that could hear the rain

"For two weeks before I moved In

house three years, and what do you

'What about the letter.

The Canadian Exodus.

The exodus from Canada to the
United States increases. Already
there are million Of Canadians on
the south of the line. Some villages
in Quebec have lost great part of
their population. In Ontario almost
all the towns and villages are station
AIRY or going backward. The Ameri-
can Consulate in Toronto has had lit
tie to do during the past year than
dispatch immigrants to the United
States. In the city 5000 houses are
vacant, and though this is partly due
to overspeculation in land and over
building, it is also partly due to emf
grafton. 1t was the President of a
Conservative association who said the
other day that soon 'the Americans
would have all the men, and we should
have all the mud"
Toronto is the stronghold OF British
sentiment and of the Canadian pro-
tectionism which finds fervent love
of the mother country available as q
safeguard against American COMPETE
tion. Englishmen who visit Canada
form their notions of Canadian senti.

or at Ottawa. which, as the Official
city, is, of course, the center of at

One Of the deacons of the church
was man whose chief fault seemed
to be a rooted dislike to parting with
his money in any cause whatever.
He was applied to assist in the repairs

The next night, during a commit.

the ceiling, and glancing of the top
OF the deacOn's head, went to the
floor with loud crash.
The deacon brushed the plastering
from his shoulders, rubbed his head,
ard said slowly, "l'll give another
$40 towards repairin' this meetin'-

of his liberal neighbors humorously,

A TWO.Headed Lizard.

Some years ago Prof. Cope caused

announcing the discovery of fossil

announced discovery was pretty gen.
orally discredited. Recently Mr..
Charles e. Hite, taxidermist of the
Peary Relief Expedition, and at pres

tory at the summer school at Avalon,
New Jersey, was more fortunate than
Prof Cope, for he was able to exhibit

At Home and Abroad,

ARCHBISHOP FEEHAN of Chicago,
is credited with being the richest pre-
late in the United States
THE Caildren's Scripture Union is
society which was started in En-
land some years ago and now has
branches all over the world. Its
chief object is to induce children to
commit scripture to memory. 1t has
over 100000 members, 10000 of
whom are in Japan.
w. T. STEAD. the former editor of
the Pail Mall Gazette, has on foot an
enterprise for the translation of the
Scriptures Unto the language of the
ordinary man and woman of our own
time" He has eighteen translators
at work on the New Testament, d.
vided into groups of three or four,
and he expects to publish the Cos
pels and Acts this year.
CLERICAL dress, manners, and
preaching have changed materially
in the last ten years. The rule now
seems to be that the minister In the
pulpit who is so we'll dressed that no
one notices his clothes, and has such
good manners that no one thinks
about his gestures or voice, and
breaches so that what he says at
tracts no attention, is in style.
CHRISTIAN ENDEAvoR Societies
have increased from one society in
February, 1881, to "a, 900 societies in
1893, with total of l, 400, 900 men,
bers. The principle fact which has
caused this amazing growth is that
each member is pledged to take some
part or to bear some share Of the
work. II the churches were subjected
to such pledge they would soon
multiply.
AN old Scotch lady, who lived at q
considerable distance from the parish
church was in the habit Of driving
over to the service. Her coachman,
when he thought the sermon nearly
at an end, would slip out quietly for
the purpose OF having the carriage
ready by the time the service was
ended. One Sunday John returned
to church, and after hanging about
the door for some time became i'm
patient, and popping in his head saw
that the minister harrangued as hard
as ever. Creeping down the aisle to-
ward his mistress he whispered in her
ear: us he no dune yet?" "Dune!
he's dune half an hour since, but he'll
no stop!" she answered impatiently.

Brief Will of q Lawyer.

Here is a simple will; less than
twenty words: This is my last will;
I leave all my property to my wife,
and I make her my executrix."
These two sentences, says the None

the will of a lawyer which has lately
been admitted to probate. Signed
and properly witnessed, this intel
ligible declaration of a mans inten-
tions is just as good, it seems. as

WHERE CHINESE ARE NEEDED.
The MOngolians Would he Uscfcl In Clear
Ing Land In the Northwest.

The Mongollans Would He Uscfcl In Clear
Ing Land in the Northwest.
Some days ago the Portland Orc
gonian said: III we had at this mo-
ment 10000 more Chinese in the
Pacific in the Northwest to do the
work which white men will not do,
and which yet is necessary for the de.
yelopment OF the country, the result
would be good for everybody" A
correspondent writes that ''he would
like to be informed what the nature
OF that work is" and the Oregonian
thus responds:
The occupation in which the Chi.
nese labor would mainly be useful is
that Of clearing our heavily timbered
lands. This is labor which white
men will not or do not to any extent
perform. Thus far nearly all of the
work of clearing our lands has been
performed by Chinese. But it has
come to a stop Since Chinese i'm.
migration was suspended it has be-
come impossible to get labor for this
purpose. Higher wages are demand
ed by Chinese, and no owner of tim
Der land can afford to hire it cleared.
1t Is easy, OF course, to assert that
there are plenty of white men ready
to perform labor of this kind and to
denounce the owners of the land for
employing them, but there is test
of this matter that may be very SIM
ply made. There are immense areas
OF this land yet open for settlement
Government will give them away to
all citizens who apply. But our
wOrkingmen refuse to take these
lands and subdue them. They
wouldn't clear the land for the gift
Of them, doubtless because they think
they can do better, and many of them
may he right.
Here then ia q line of work in
which Chinese would not be in the
way of white labor, and there Is
nothing more necessary for develop
ment of the country than the clear
ing of large bodies of these lands
The work is now practically at a
stand. Again. Chinese labor would
be useful In market gardening and
fruit growing. Oregon and Washing
ton do not grow vegetables enough by
One-half for their own consumption.
What we have in the way of market
gardening now Is largely the work
of Chinese. Facts like these are
facts in spite Of all defamation. As
q people the Chinese are not a desir-
able class, since they are unfit for in
corporation into the citizenship Of
the country. but in everv respect
they are far less Objectionable and
dangerous than tens of thousands
from European countries who are ad-
mitted without question every year
anarchists, agitators, beggars, monte
banks and criminals Of every degree.
The country can do without Chinese,
Of course, but much work that would
contribute to its development will
remain undone There Is no proba
bility that Chinese will ever be freely
admitted again, and this, too. in al
the circumstances is we'll, since the
presence Of an inferior race among SUI
perior beings like ourselves is always
source of discomfort which politica
agitators continually iDflame. In al
circumstances, therefore, exclusion o
the Chinese is advisable, or even nee
cssary, but still word now and ther
On certain phases of the subject, die

"Taking an Oath"

The administration of the oath. as
in civil cases. is of high antiquity:
'Then shall an oath Of the Lord
be between them both, that he has
not put his hand into his neighbours

s.Swearing on the Gospels was first
used in the year 52S. The first oath

was by the Saxons in the year 600.
