been better to have omitted them?'
''Much better. They disfgure the

\ Pound OF Food.

The cost of pound of human food.
based on the results from lII6 animals
examined at our various experiment
stations and at the Columbian Expo
sition. has been carefully studied by
DR.. w. 81. JordOn, director of the
Maine station. and embodied in an en-
tirely new lecture that was the feature
of the State Dairymen's Convention.
In brief. the work of DR.. JordOn was
to figure out the relations between the
food eaten and what is produced by it.
The percentage of dressed weight to
live weight in steers is 54.4. In the
composition of dressed carcass We
throw away in what can be eaten Is
pounds out of every 100 pounds. So
that in the steefwe get only 46.4 pounds
of food in each 100 pounds of live
weight. the remainder being discarded.
But of milk we throw away nothing
it is all eaten, all digestible; in eggs
we throw away nothing but the she'll,
eggs and milk being perfect foods.
One of the cows at the Maine Expert
ment Station produced as much human
food in one year as are to be found in
four 10O0-pound steers.

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo-, January %.
Governor Stone to-day granted par
don to Willis Burnes, colored, who
was sentenced to the penitentiary at
the September term 1888, of the Circuit
Court of Randolph County, for q term
of % years for rape upon the person
of Annie White. Recently the woman
died, and shortly before her death she
made an affidavit before a Justice of
the Peace that her testimony charging
Burnes with the crime of rape was
wholly false, and that she was per-
suaded to make the charge by others,
she being at that time under IS years
of age.
During her last sickness she made a
similar confession to others. Mrs.
Maria Brown states under oath that
Annie White confessed in most une-
quivocal terms that her testimony was
wholly false and that she seemed to
suffer the keenest remorse on that ac-
count. Burnes has now served six
and half years and upon the evil
dence submitted the Governor believes
the man to be innocent of the crime
and he therefore grants the pardon.

BEGGARY IN NEn YORK.
Professional Beggars and those whose
Self Reliance is Broken Down.

Professional Beggars and those whose
Self Reliance is Broken Down.
! Supt- Hebberd, of the charity organ
ization, says that indications point to
the probability of smaller demand
| this winter than last for assistance.
The demands so far fall short of the
number at this time last year. There
are fewer beggars on the streets than
then, according to the officers of the
society.
Charity" said Mr.. Hebberd, be
gets the need of it, and the worst thing
you can do for man is to make him
dependent upon some one else. We
had an illustration of this here the
other day. A foreigner of some edu-
cation, who has had three children in
public institution at an annual cost
to the community of several hundred
dollars, came to us the other day to
say that he'd like to have his wife and
daughter cared for. Knowing the facts
in the case, We told him they must go
to the island. He cheerfully assented
to this, and said, as he showed a dol
lar, that for himself. as he had little
money, he'd stay in the city.
''The demand for charity this winter
will be somewhat above the normal,
but not very greatly so. because there
will not be so many distributors of free
food and clothing to attract the idle
and needy from elsewhere. Where the
body is, there will the eagles be gath
cred together. As to beggary of the
professional sort, it Will flourish as
heretofore unless active measures are
taken to suppress it. Beggary is pop
ular in New York. and the public likes
to be fooled. This is proved by the
fact that beggars haunt the same spots
day after day or night after night, OBJ
tanning on the average about so much
every two or three hours. These beg
gars must aceost the same peoplemanv
times over. II is positive evidence
that man is a professional beggar
when he is seen begging day after day
at the same place. II persons who see
such things will promptly report them
to this office. the society will send an
officer to arrest the impostors. Com
paratively few persons do so, partly
because it is less trouble to give the
man q small coin on the spot. partly
because most men feel that the man
who stOOps to be"gary must be in
desperate need.
1T seems to me. however. that beg
gary is decreasing rather than iHcreas-
ing in New York. | am inclined to
believe that there is less than there
was twenty years ago. and am sure
that children are less used as bait by
beggars than they were then. It vas
a common thing twenty years ago to
see Italian women begging. babes in
arms. It is comparatively rare now"

Birth of a New Language.

In n recent issue of the British Cen.
tral Africa Gazette Il correspondent
gives some interesting particulars ol

northeastern end of Mount Mlanje
since its occupation by the admins
tration and the buildingof Fort Lister,
which Mr.. Fl. H. Johnston planted in
that region to command the route fire.
quently taken by slave caravans from
the interior to Quilimane. Among
other matters which he notes as due to
the presence of the Sikh soldiers who
garrison Fort Lister in the beginning
of what is practically a new language.
Where the Indian soldiers are to
found there also will be found a most
extraordinary language, a mixture of
Hindustani, Swahila, Yao and Chin
yanja. This is most remarkable near
Fort Lister. It is one of the newest
languages on earth: it cannot be more
than a year old, but is well understood
by the peopla. The vocabulary is
limited. and as for grammar it is as
yet uniformed. but | am confident that
should the Indian soldiers remain in
tins country another five years. the
phllologist will be delighted to study
the lndo-African language OF the future
and to trace TO their origin the marve-
lous words composing ii. The same
correspondent notes that with the ad-
vent OF the Sikhs a wonderful change
has come over the habits and manners
OF the native. Where formerly his
wants in the matter OF clothing were
confined to sufficient calico to clothe
his family and himself, he nowrequires
boots. turbdns, trousers and coats,
and distance it is said to be now
difficult to distinguish the hali-naked
savage OF year ago from the Sikh
soldier in his ordinary dress. An
other matter in which the american
initiates the Sikh is i'll the military
salute. with which the native now fire.
quently accompanies the greeting of
Europeans. the result being more
amusing than correct.
