INDIANS IN DISTRESS.
Poor Lo in Labrador suffers From a
Famine in Game.

QUEBEC, Aug. 6, 1894 Distressing intel
lgence as to the condition of many
Indian tribes in Central Labrador
has reached here. The famine
In the winter consequent upon
the scarcity of game in sections that had
been swept by forest fires is contributing to
the approaching extinction of some of the
aborigines Some Montagnais families have
recently returned to Mingan, who left there
a year ago for the country bordering on the
northern part of Hudson Bay. They
report that large numbers of In
dians in that locality died of
starvation last winter in consequence of the
scarcity of caribou and that the tribe to
which they belong threaten soon to become
extinct.
Sixty Indian families now at Mingan
are in destitute condition this year,
many of them being unable from
the result of last winters hunt to pay
debts they incurred for supplies last
Autumn Up to this year the Hud-
son Bay Company advanced to those
Indians whatever supplies they required
for lgoing into the woods, recouping
themselves out of the furs the hunters
brought back with them in the spring
The redskins, however, are so improv-
ident that no matter how much they
realize from the winters hunt they
have seldom anything left in the autumn
with which to pay for supplies they take
back with them into the woods, and this
year the agent at Mingan has given the
Indians to understand they must look
elsewhere for their supplies,
hence there is likely to be great suffering
and destitution among them unless the fed
eral government comes to their assistance.

HE WON BOTH.

In 1922 Mr.. Labouchere, relative of the
present NJ p of that name, was clerk in
the banking house of Hope of Amsterdam.
One day he was seut by his patron to Mr..
Barring, the celebrated London Banker, to
negotiate loan. He displayed in the affair
SO much ability as to entirely win the esteem
and confidence of the English banker
'Falth,n said Labouchere one day to Bar
ing .syour daughter is a charming creature.
| wish l could persuade you to give Inc her
hand"
s.Young man, you are joking, for seriously
you must allow that Miss Barring could never
become the wife of simple clerk"
ssBut." said Labouchere, If were in
partnership with Mr. Hope@
80, that would be quite different thing
that would entirely make up for all other
deficiencies"
Returned to Amsterdam Labouehere said
to his patron
ssYou must take me into partnership
"My young friend. how can you think of
such a thing! 1t is impossible. You are
without fortune, and
'sBut if I become the son-in-law of Mr..
Barring"
SIN that case the affair would soon be set
tied, and so you have my word"
Fortified with these two promises Labou-
chere returned to England and two months
after married Miss Barring, because Mr..
Hope had promised to take him into partner
ship, and he became allied to the house of
Hope on the strength OF that promise OF
marriage.

FLAWS IN IRON AND STEEL.

A modification of the flaw detector brought
out some time ago has been designed by a
Paris inventor. The apparatus is electrical.
and consists of a small pneumatic Taper,
worked by hand, with which the sample of
steel or iron is tapped over With the tap
per is connected telephone, with a micro
phone interposed in the circuit For the
operation of the apparatus two persons are
required, one to apply the Taper, and the
other to listen through the telephone for the
indicating sounds. Although the operators
are in electrical connection. they are located
in separate apartments, so that the direct
sounds of the taps do not interfere with the
listener. While the sounds produced by the
taps are normal, the operator at the tele-
phone does nothing but directly false
sound, which is distingulshable from the
normal sound, is heard, he sends signal for
the spot to be marked. and thus not only
detects but locates the fiaw.-Ecchdnge.

MYSTERIOUS DIAMOND CUTTERS.
Belief They Are Coming TO This
Gn,at

Relief They Are Coming TO This
Country Under Contract.
NEW YORK, Aug. 6, 1S94.-The immigra-
tion authorities both at Washington
and at Ellis Island are considerably
worried over the way in which
diamond cutters from Amsterdam are
coming into the country. They admit that
the men probably come here under contract,
but up to the present time it has been i'm
possible to get any actual proof thas such
was the case, and in the meantime every
steamer from Dutch ports bring over its
quota of diamond cutters.
The influx began about three weeks ago.
when five diamond cutters arrived on the
Maasdam. The authorities on Ellis Island
had been notified by the Central Labor
Union that the men were coming in under
contract and they were held. Noevidence
of a contract was Forthcoming, however,
and the men landed.
A week later the Bilver Brothers arrived
with fifteen diamond cutters on the Veen-
dam They brought letters of credit for
over half a million dollars and announced
their intention OF setting up their establish
ment III Brooklyn.
The men with them said that they came to
this country because their business was dead
in Amsterdam, and .hey thought they
would get work here. There were allowed
to land.
The Rotterdam which came in early last
week brought twenty-five who landed and
twenty more came over on the Spaarndam
which arrived here yesterday.
That these men are all going to work for
the sBilvers the immigration authorities
have not the slightest doubt, but at
present they are powerlesS to act. An in
vestieatIon is being conducted in Europe.
however, and it is probable that the
whole crowd will be eventually deportedy

grants may be arrested on warrant issued
by the Secretary of the Treasury at. any
time within year after landing.

EXTRAORDINARY WEALTH.
Colossal Fortunes That Arc Unap-
nronclsed In England.


By calculation made a year or two ago
by an American statistician it seems that
seventy citizens of the United States pos
sessed among them an aggregate wealth OF
454O, 600 900. This gives an average of
about 81, 100000 apiece. To come to par
ticulars:-There was one estate-we refrain
from mentioning names-returned as worth
no less than $50, ,000 000 There were five in
individuals valued at $50, ,000,0 600: one valued
at GA. .0o0, 900; two valued at Sl2 100000; six
valued at SO, 100000; six valueti at IS ,0e0,-
QUO: four valued at t1,00J, 900: thirteen
valued at 46 0G0.000, tn all.eI at 4o,0Uu,-
600: four valued at "a, 800, 900, and fifteen at
f4 000, 900.
The brain reels before such figures. They
express measures of wealth which the ordi-
nary mortal is poweress to grasp. Besides
these seventy colossal fortunes, there are
fifty other persons in the Northern States
clone valued at over e., 600 000 each, thirty
of them being in all at ESQ, 1000, COO. There
