The President has disposed of the long
standing case of Lieut.. Frank W. Nichols,
Us. n, by retiring the officer at his present
rank with three-quarters pay. This action
was taken upon the report of medical
board, and the President finds that the disa
bility from which the officer suffers was
incurred in the line of duty. With this re-
tirement the department will have at its
disposal seventeen vacancies in the line and
six in the staff for the accomn odation of

The Atlanta Constitution observes:
An interesting plan is under discus
sion in the Legislature of the colony
of Victoria, Australia, for the relief of
farmers who wish to borrow money
on their land. The Savings Bank
Commissioners are to be authorized
to "assist producers" by lending them
money to the amount of half the value
of their land, under plan by which
borrowers will repay principal and
five per cent. interest in extended
half-yearly installments. The Com
missioners would be recouped by four
per cent. mortgage bonds, issued
locally and guaranteed by the Govern
ment.

The Louisville Courier-Journal re-
marks: Congress was quite right to
make Labor Day National holiday.
1t does not matter what motives
urged Congress to do such thing.
There is nothing the American people
need more than holidays. We haven't
anything like enough of them. There
is too much striving and scraping, too
much work and more worry, too fast
a pace and too little rest, too much
burning of the candle at both ends,
too much high-pressure living. We
don't know enough about how to rest
We too rarely invite our souls to mer-
riment, but keep body and brain bent
upon the wheel of daily cares, and
pride ourselves more upon showing
how far we can defy nature than how
wisely we can conserve its forces. 1t
is telling on us. Nature is beginning
to exact its debt, sometimes Rll at
once in the sudden breakdown of a
vigorous physique, sometimes with the
usury of wicked mind, often in The
shattering of nerves and the enforced
rest that comes too late to comfort
and repair. We have been spend
thrifts of our energies, and have be-
gun to think of economy none too
soon to avert bankruptcy. Plenty of
holidays, plenty of outings, plenty of
parks, plenty of nonsense, plenty Of
fun and frolic-that's the prescription
for the oyerworked, oyerworried
American. He wants now and then
to lose the trail of the dollar and cool
the fever of chasing it. He needs to
coin some of his time into health and
happiness aud not all of it into
money"

Curious Habit OF Beetles

Certains beetles have long been
known to eject or give out a repul-
sive fluid from joints of their bodies,
or from their legs, or from eversible
glands. NJ. Cuenot has recently
studied the cases of the election of
blood from these beetles. The fluid,
however, is not red, as the blood of
insects is either colorless or slightly
yellowish. Lady birds, oil beetles
and other vegetable feeders are such
as possess this habit. The winter has
added to this list one of our common
beetles which sends out pale milky
fluid smelling like laudanum, the odor
being exactly that emitted by certain
moths OF the Arctian family.-New

ROUND THE YEAR.

oh, beautiful world OF greenl
When bluebirds carol clear,
And rills outleap,
And new buds peep,
And the soft sky seems more near.
With billowy green, and leaves, what then2
How soon we greet the red again
oh, radiant world OF red
When roses blush so fair,
And winds blow sweet,
And lambkins bleat,
And the bees hum here and there.
With trill Of bobolinks-Ah, then,
Before we know, the gold again!
Oh, beautiful world OF gold
When waving grain is ripe,
And apples beam,
Through the hazy CLEAN,
And quails on the fence-rail pipe.
With pattering nuts, and winds why then
How swiftly falls the white again
Oh, wonderful world Of white
When trees are hung with lace,
And the rough winds chlde,
And snowflakes hide
Each bleak, unsheltered place.
When birds and brooks are dumb, what
then?
Oh, round we go to green again

The hatred of Italians in France by
the French lower classes, intense be-
fore the assassination of President
Carnot, has become so bitter that the
Italians are fleeing for their lives
from many sections of France, states
the Chicago Record. The people of
Italy are maddened by this unreason-
able hatred, and in Turin and other
places reprisals have already COM
menced against French residents. The
little fire of individual persecution
blazes brightly now. There is danger
that it may extend and become con-
fagration of international war. There
has been no love lost between the
countries for years.

There is dearth of good poetry in
these times, according to the poetical
editor of New York magazine. He
says that the demand for it has for
good while been greater than the sup
ply, and he believes that the pro-
ducers of it have been discouraged by
the newspapers. For years past
number of papers have often taken
occasion to sneer at great deal of
the poetry thrown on the market, and
the younger poets especially have felt
disheartened under the sighting re-
marks of writer's who were unable to
appreciate their verse. 1t is evident
that these poets are determined to
withhold their products from the pub
lie until such time as they can have a
reasonable assurance of better treat
ment. The older poets are hardened
against abuse, but they cannot turn
out poetry every day.

The statement that advices have
been received at Copenhagen, by way
of Greenland, that the two young
Swedish botanists, Biorling and Kali
stenius, had started for Labrador in
a small open boat will revive interest
in these hardy explorers, thinks the
New York Press. Bjlorling and Kali
stenius, with five assistants, set out
two years ago ona voyage of discovery
in the Arctic regions. Their hazard
GUS expedition awakened much atten-
tion at that time from the fact that the
young men betrayed the expenses of
the journey out of their own limited
resources and were actuated purely by
enthusiasm for scientific research.
Nothing had been heard from them
for long time, although repeated eff
forts had been made to find traces of
them, and it had begun to be feared
that they had suffered the fate of so
many others who have braved
the perils of the polar zone. Many
besides relatives and friends will hope
that the brave Swedish explorers will
yet be restored to their homes.

The Louisiana Legislature has with
out opposition voted an appropriation
for the construction of bust or statue
of Thomy Lafon, the colored philan-
thropist, who died in New Orleans a
few months ago. The Governor will
have the selection of the statue, and
will decide upon its location. 1t will
probably be placed in the State House.
1t is asserted that this is the first
statue ever erected to a colored man
in the South, and one of the first IN
the country. Lafon, who was eighty
years old when he died, left fortune
of 5000, 900, nearly all of it to charity.
He founded an asylum for old people
and one for girls, and gave the rest to
other benevolent institutions. His
original intention was to make these
institutions open to both white and
colored, but he was persuaded to
abandon that idea because the whites
are already well provided with elee-
mosynary institutions.
