mittee Is Mr.. McRae's bill to prevent the
free use of timber on public lands, which

ing the cutting of timber, and that of
1893 governing prosecutions for viola tions
Of the law, and provides that hereafter
it shall be unlawful to grant permission to
any persons or corporations to cut timber
free of charge. Nothing in the act Is to
prevent the Secretary of the Interior from
permitting. under proper restrictions, the
Use of stone and timber free to bona fide
settlers or mineral prOspectors for fire
wood fencing or building purposes.
The committee struck out the clause re-
vOking all permits already granted by the
Interior Department.

dietary committee today announced Repre-

Branch suniHy.

the President and Secretary Carlisle are
expected to spend Sunday at Long Branch

TO intention of going to Long Branch Sun
day or any other time When he is able
to get away he will join his family at Gray

 Dangers of IntolerAnce-
 Whas did intolerance accomplish against the Baptist church? If laughing scorn and tirade could have destroyed the church, 1t would not have today a disciple left The Baptists were hurled out of Boston in olden times Those who sympathized with them were inn prisoned, and when petition was of- fered asking leniency in their behalf all the men who signed it were indicted Has intolerance stopped the Baptist church? The last statistics in regard to it showed 25, 900 churches and 8, OO0,- 900 communicants. Intolerance never put down anything.

Tho Goddess of Smallpox.

A striking account of the difficult ties attending on the attempt to extend the practice of vaccination in India is given by Surgeon General Sir William Moore The chief obstacle is supersti- tious prejudice. The population firmly believe variola to be matter under the control of the goddess "Mata, in whose honor temples abound and fairs are held, where thousands of women and chill dren attend with offerings. The decliv- ities of most of the numerous conical hills present either a reddened stone or temple devoted to "Mata, !" with most probably an attendant Brahman priest.
 Nearly every village has its goddess of smallpox in the immediate locality, and in many places large piece of ground is esteemed holy and dedicated to "Mata '" The people do not pray to escape the affection, unless in seasons when it occurs with more than ordinary vtrulenoe. They do, however, petition for mild visitation but even the loss of an eye does not appear to be viewed as very serious calamity.
 "Is there not another eye sufficient for all purposes5" questioned one of these stoical philosophers. "If 1t were the leg or hand, it would be different, but an eye as immatsrial "-Notss and Queries.

DIScoMFORTS OF ACTING.

Lack of Accommodations In the Green
 room and Behind the Scenes-
 The janitor has an important bearing on the actors condition, which finds its expression is his playing and possibly on his nervous organization. He SUD- plies the house and in most cases fur nishes quarters for the actors such as no self respecting slave owner would in the old days have condemned a slave to occupy.
 For the public nothing is too good For the actor, on the other hand, any thing is good enough. Instead of silken draperies, he finds only tattered our tain at the window, if indeed he find 8 curtain at all, or even a window which it might cover. Instead of soft, comfortable chairs, one wooden chair none too clean, or chair minus back, will be the only seat. and not infre- quently, if he wishes to sit down, he must do so on his trunk Instead of delicately tinted walls, lie will find dirty walls which have not been treated even to coat of whitewash for years While in the auditorium soft carpet covers the floor, in the aotor's room a carpet rarely exists, or. if by chance there be something which once was a carpet, 1t Is so dirty that it would be better away.
 The washing appliances of the actor's room, if they are found at all, usually consist of small basin with tap of running water. Most people would ex- pect that, as the winter is the theatrical season and the paints used by the &C., tors are made with grease, hot water would be at hand But this is rarely the case, and in many instances running water in the dressing rooms is unknown. It is not uncommon for actors to refrain E from using the basins, preferrfng to re- move the makeup" as we'll as possible with vaseline and to wait until the hotel is reached to complete this portion of the toilet Tin basins and buckets are not the worst that have seen Ion the road" for once the water was in dirty, battered, old lard tins, and basins had to be bought by our manager.

We are not slow to take hint, if 1t is blind ore. It would be perfectly aw- ful If VIC should really get it (this eoftening disease, we mean, ! and have it get real deep- ly seated before VIC knew it, or before we had time to yaccinatc.
