Fishing on the Pacific Coast.

The Oldest industry of the Atlantic
coast, the fisheries, is the newest indus
try of the Pacific. Until few years
ago the fishermen on the northern coasts
of California paid no attention to the
vast quantities Of sturgeon and halibut
there, regarding them as worthless, and
it is only within two or three years that
the majority Of places further north and
down the southern coast now making
money in fish have paid any attention
whatever to the industry.
Last year 100000 pounds of sturgeon
were taken from the Columbia river and
shipped east. and altogether 100 or so
carloads of this one kind of fish went
east from that region. In the last year
or two there have been large discoveries
of halibut in Alaskan and other north
ern waters, and salmon are getting
more plentiful in the streams of that re-
gion. Los Angeles and other southern
California points have within year or
so become great shippers of fish to the
east, barricudas and yellow tails being
the chief varieties.

The latest news from the Egyptian mu-
scum at Gheezeh is that there is such q
glut of mtimmiied humanity there, ow-
ing to the quantities Of priests of Am
mon discovered awhile ago in upper
Egypt, That the Egyptian government
has proposed to the museums of London,
Paris, Berlin, Vienna, St. Petersburg and
Rome to take them off its hands. They
are to be divided into lots, which are to
be drawn for by the accepting parties
But at present one and all are somewhat
reluctant to take them. So there is still
a chance that the poor priests may fol-
low in the wake of the sacred cats, whose
mummifed remains were shipped to Liv-
erpool as fertilizer for the fields.-Lon-

American News In Europe.

An English correspondent takes oc-
casion to point out to Americans in the
course of recent letter to New York
newspaper that the outrageous quality
Of what is sent abroad from this country
as news is working wonders in.lowering
us in the esteem of foreigners and in
corrupting all classes of Transatlantic
readers. Of the few days preceding the
transmission Of his angry letter he states
that more than half the whole matter
sent during that week was given up to
stories OF lynching in the south, includ-
ing minute details of the burning of a
negro for outrage after an hour of tor
ture with redhot irons, and nearly as
long a story Of the lynching of a black
nursemaid.
"It is a small thing" says he, "that
Americans living and travelling here
should be continually insulted by opin-
ions based on this garbage, but if inter-
national respect and amity mean any
thing it is not a small matter that our
people as a whole should be persist
emily and hbelously given away in this
fashion, and from their own side too"

wendell Phlllips as . Lecturer.

WcuuoAA Z nlAAAPe uo y A<ccuurcHs
Wendell Phillips as a lecturer, and
apart from his extraordinary power as q
convention orator on occasions, was
quite the most interesting, the most con-
vincing, the most polished and delight
full platform speaker that America has
produced. He owed his success to his
wit, to the most felicitous and incisive
vocabulary, to the most melodious and
enhancing voice and to his perfect COM
mand of himself and all his resources.
He was never slovenly. He always
brought his best thought most carefully
arranged to his audience, and he never
met an audience, even one hostile to him
and his opinions, that he could not at
length subdue to his potent influence.
Nothing was left to chance.
He would no more have produced an
unfinished lecture than great artist
would have exhibited an unfinished pic
ture. He respected his audience, and
the audience always felt this. The SYM
pathy that he gained from 1t, even when
it disagreed with him, was the more re-
markable because he never, or rarely
ever, improvised. YeAHhe had such con-
summate art that he seemed to be i'm
provising, the golden words apparently
dropping freshly coined from the bril-
liant mint of his mind. He was eloquent
without single burst of cheap rhetoric.
And of all orators on the platform he
was the most convincing and plausible
for the hour.-Charles Dudley Warner
in Harper's.

The Growth of the Postal System.

Less than so years ago there was really
no postal system in this country. Pre-
vious to 1847 the mails were carried by
private firms, and rates varied according
to distance. Carriers often Travelled on
foot or horseback, and the progress was
slow. In 1916 some Of the post offices
issued stamps of their own, called ''pro-
visional issues" The adhesive stamp
was first used in this country in 1S47,
and prepayment was made compulsory
in 1856. In 1868 the stamp containing
the head of Andrew jackson was issued,
and fpm then until 1885 the style
adopted contained the profiles of presi-
dents of the United States.-Public Opin-

The Principals In the Panama Affair.


At the present moment all the princi-
pal actors in the Panama affair are con-
fined to their beds. While DR.. Cornelius
Herr reposes behind what M. Millevoye
calls "the mysterious Venetian blinds Of
Bournemouth" in moribund condition
Ferdinand de Lesseps is slowly dying Of
old age at the castle of Chesnay. His
son, Charles de Lesseps, is lying serious
ly i'll in the ST. Louis hospital. M. Ma
rius Fontane is laid up in the infirmary
of the prison at Melun, and ex-Minister
Baihaut is confined to that of the peni-
tentiary at Etampes.
M. Andrieux, who is popularity believed
to have been the instigator of the entire
series of exposures, work for which he
WAS peculiarly fitted by reason of his
former tenure of the Office of prefect of
police, is likewise lying at his home, suf-
fering from a severe attack of jaundice.
The bitterness against the perpetrators
of the frauds has in great measure died
away, and there is general satisfaction
expressed at the action of the court of
cessation in quashing the sentences
against them on the ground that the
statute of limitations covered the ofenses
charged Letter.

Bird Life In London.

The rocks, after an absence of some
years-how many we cannot really COM
NIT ourselves to say-have returned to
Kensington gardens and established a
f1ourishing little colony Of some II nests
in the trees on the west side of the
broad walk, between the old banqueting
hall and the Bayswater road. 1t is GU
rious that the bird population of London
seems still to be undergoing process of
change, some species being largely on
the increase. while others are decreasing
in numbers, or have quite recently dis
appeared. The wood pigeons afford the
most noticeable example of increase in
numbers, as they are now fully estab-
hshed, not only in the parks, but also in
many of the squares which have trees
suitable for them to build in, and they
have extended their range well within
the city boundary.
They may always be seen In Palace
yard, Westminster, and for the fourth
year in succession a pair are nesting in
the elm tree over the fountain at the end
of Great George street. Blackbirds and
thrushes, though by no means SO notice
able as the pigeons, are certainly on the
increase in the parks, owing, no doubt,
in great measure to the fact that many
Enclosures planted with shrubs have
been made of late years. They are far
from uncommon. Indeed one morning
not long since we saw no less than five
cock blackbirds engaged in tussle un-
der the trees near the flower walk in
Kensington gardens. Tits of two species
tho great tit and the blue tit-have
lately been largely on the increase in
Kensington gardens.-London Saturday

Russia's Best Friends,

It is a curious fact that Russia's only
friends among the great powers of the
world are republics-the two republics
of France and the United States. The
czar is not much of an admirer of the
German and Austrian kaisers, or the
italian king or the Turkish sultan, or the
British sovereign, but he is on the best
of terms with Mr.. Cleveland and M. Car
not and is practical friend of their re-
spective countries, each of which sails

Worlds Fair.
CHICAGO, July 16.-Notwithstanding
that it was advertised far and wide that
the proceeds of today's ticket sales at
the worlds fair were to be donated to
the families of the firemen who lost
their lives in the awful fire of last Mon
day, the attendance was unusually
small. The total admissions, according,
to the estimate of the bureau of sdmis-
sions, will scarcely reach $4,000, and
what was announced as the last open
Sunday of the fair, in the eyes of some
of the officials, at least, was pro-
nounced failure. Less than one thous-
aud people gathered in the festival hall
to participate in the memorial services.
Rev. DIR. Mercer preached sermon.

SNUBBED AGAIN.
The Northwestern Officials Refuse
to Fill Their Promises.

A change of time went into effect
on the Northwestern road last Sunday,
but the change does not effect the
Redwood branch. The promise made
by the Northwestern officials when
here last winter will remain unful-
filled, and it now remains to be seen
whether our business men will submit
to the outrage without, at least. going
on record against it.
The change on the main line effects
the night train only. The wings of
steam are to be hurried up fast
enough to bring the night train into
Sleepy Eye about eleven O'Clock, which
will cause only two hours delay for
Redwood passengers, at that point.
But the time is lost again at Kasota,
if passage to st. Paul is desired, as
the delay there is just two or three
hours longer than under the old time
table. This will be lovely, if you have
a sleeper; otherwise it will be blank
disagreeable.
The GAZETTE, supposing that reli-
ance could be placed on the leading
officials of the road, and that when
they made promise to a delegation
representing business interests that
pay the Northwestern over $115,OOO
for freight traffic, annually, felt that
the change would be made soon. An
uneasy feeling on the part of business
men caused this paper to wire Supt.
Cosgrave when the time table would
be changed on the Stub. Supt. Co.'S
graves answer came back quick and
was to the point:
WNoNA, April "a, 1893.
REDWOOD GAZETTE: change of
time contemplated.
