white boy, is held as o slave. His

lad a few weeks ago for 800 cash and
expects to rear the youngster, inpcplate
in him the traditions of the tribe, SO
that he may become the head and
founder of a new and strong Chuckle-
hassitt nation. The lad was seen by o
number of sealing captains, who went
to the west coast to sign Indian hunt
ers, and who found the boy tatooad,
painted and CARRIED in the costume
OF the young braves and enthroned in
the chiefs house at Ouikinsh. Chief
Titlouse complained that his tribe was
rapidly becoming extinct and it would
be d boys great mission to avert this
fate. He would, the Indians promised,
be well cared for and allowed to want
for nothing. Already 60 wives had
been selected for him, the number al
lowed TO the greatest chiefs. The boy
told the captains that he had been sold
by a man claiming TO be his fathet, but
he is believed to have been kidnapped
from Seattle. Hesays his name is Ar
thur. He is terror-stricken among the
Indians, who are the lowest type of alb
origines on the Pacific coast. The pro.
vincial police are taking steps to rescue
the lad.

THE INCOME TAX DECIDED.

The Ways and Means Committee
Tuesday finally committed itself to
the support of an income tax. 1t
was decided by large majority of
the committee to impose a tax of 2
per cent On all individual incomes Of
over $4,000 and on all net incomes of
corporations. II was also decided
TO increase the whisky tax, as well
as the tax on cigarettes.
An income tax will, ih refore, be
reported TO the House of Representa-
tives asa part of the revenue bill.
The measure is bound to belmmense-
Iy unpopular, but the committee
evidently saw no way Of making
good the deficiency in the revenue
caused by tariff reductions other
than by taxing incomes, the theory
being that the tariff reductions would
relieve the masses of the people,
while the income tax would throw
greater portion o. the hulden of
supporting the government on the
lich.

THE TIDE TURNED.

Emigration from the United States
has steadily exceeded immigration
into the United States since the turn
ing of the tide was noted last August,
and the exodus to Europe promises
TO attain phenominal proportions.
The report of the Immigration Blu
reau for the fiscal year ending June
30 l9licated clearly that tie heavy
inflow of aliens daring the past few
years had been checked, but only
the unpublished records of the sue
-oeeding months reveal the remark
able check caused as it is believed
by the spread in Europe Of the late
financial panic here.
These reports show steady and
increasing dlminution in the number
OF arrivals and Droportiona,e in
crease in The number of departures.
In June the increase Of emigration
to Europe amounted to 20 per cent
more than in the same month of 1891.
A comparison cannot be made as
between 1893 and 1892 for the rea-
sons that the cholera regulations in
terfered with Immigration last year.
In Jnly the increase was about II
per cent in August it was 800 'per
cent and in September 250 per cent.
The Italians are leading the exo-
dus at the present time, but the Ger
mans began it. They are not all
Germans who book for German ports,
but most Of them are. They were
in lines oil business, it is supposed,
nearest the centre Of the financial
storm when it first broke and they
felt the effect before the lndustrially
lower race did. Moreover, they were
in the more crowed trades and were
more quickly driven to the wall.
Another consideration of interest is
that the Germans who are going
home are destitute, while the Italians
are of well-to-do class Of their race.

fedcrate veterans SG3,2 annually.
Unfortunately, the number to be
