Women Are More Incorporate.

lntemperance among women IS in
creasing. The metropolitan police re-
turns chow that there has been de-
cided advance during the last two years
in the number of women apprehended
for drunkenness. In 1889 the total was
less than 3,0O0 in 1891 it was nearly
$500. There was corresponding
growth in the number of "drunk and
disorderly" cases during the same period.
Last year 1878 women were taken into
custody ON this charge in London alone.
Inquiry of magistrates, clerks, Jailers,
missionaries, and others whose daily
duty obliges them to frequent the met

To Examine the Alleged Miracle window
The Canton (Minn.) church window
miracle, which has for several months
been the cause of much excitement LII
Minnesota and northwestern religious
circles, is to be decided upon by thor
ough scientific examination by Bishop
], B. Cotter, of Winona, within whose
jurisdiction the so called miracle exists.
Several weeks ago the inhabitants OF
the little village of Canton, near Lanes
boro, were startled by the announce
ment that a portrait had by divine
means been imprinted in window OF
the Catholic church there, of which
Father Jones is pastor. The news spread,
and thousands visited the village daily
ON foot and in carriages. At first the
apparition appeared to consist OF a
Young and comedy woman with an In
FAINT in arms, and at times dim hale
was discernible about her head. The
story then took the form that this was
portrait of the Virgin Mary ant
Christ, and the crowds of visitors in
creased tenfold. Paralytic cripples ant
other afflicted persons came in droves
and after glimpse of the pictur
threw away their crutches, exclalmln
that they were cured.
The matter finally attracted sue
widespread attention that Bishop Cote
visited the church in company wit
Father Coyne, of Lanesboro, and fathe
Perrin. of Brownville. The window
t which is in the north gable OF I'll
church, was removed, and the bishop pc
sonally brought it to Winona, where
will give it thorough examination
company with other prominent Cathoi
clergymen. The bishop is of the OPT

The Pacific is the great ocean of our

When the glacial masses moved to the

1t presents every form of ocean geog-

the Aleutian islands into the gulf of
Alaska which comes within 100 fathoms

the wire and there is a corresponding
, bench in the southwest portion of the
sea west of the meridian of 1870 degrees

r,. First to Greet Columbus.

The First to Greet Columbus.
When the feast is spread In our country's
name,
When the nations are gathered from far and
near,
When east and west send up the same
clad shout, and call to the lands, Good
cheer!'
When north and south shall give their bloom.
The fairest and best of the century born,
Oh. then for the king of the feast make rooml
Make room, we pray, for the scarlet thornl
Not the goldenrod from the hillsides blest,
Not the pale arbutus from pastures rare,
Nor the waving wheat from the mighty west
Nor the proud magnolia tall and fare
Shall Columbia unto the banquet bring
They, willing of heart, shall stand and wait;
For the thorn, with his scarlet crown, is king,
Make room for him at the splendid fetel
Do we not remember the olden tale,
And that terrible day of dark despair,
When Columbus, under the lowering sail,
Sent out to the hidden lands his prayer
And was it not he of the scarlet bough
Who first went forth from the shore to gree
That lone grand soul at the vessels Prov
Defying fate with his tiny feetf
Grim treachery threatened above, below,
And death stood close at the captains SIDE,
When he saw-oh, joy!-in the sunset glow,
The thorn trees branch DER the waters glloe
"Landl Land aheadp' was the joyful shout;
The vesper hymn DER the ocean swept;
The mutinous sailors faced about;
Together they fell on their knees and wept'
At dawn they landed with pennons white;
They kissed the sod of San Salvador;
But dearer than gems on his doublet bright
Were the scarlet berries their leader bore;
Thorny and sharp, like his future crown;
Blood red, like the wounds in his great hea
made,
Yet an emblem true of his proud renown'
Whose glorious colors shall never fade.
