the man died in intense agony. Mr.
Hathaway was one Of the early settlers

go to Texas for the benefit OF his wife's
health, he was induced to 60 into the

The Growth of Population.

Is Is doubtful II the lack of employ
ment during the late business depres-
sion induced many men and women to
leave for the west. This has probably
to be attributed to the depression In
agriculture. The cultivation of the
soil In its more productive regions has
got largely into a few hands. and the
young man, whom Horace Greeley SO
sturdily advised to 90 west, has not the
opportunities to make a living on his
own account that he once had there.
He may ring his sustenance from the
soil, but in the market for the sale Of
his products he is at disadvantage.
The growth of the nearer western states
is far from being ut the earlier ratio,
unless 1t be In those states which en-
gage in manufacturing. Iowa has just
taken census, and reports that her in
crease In population during the last nvc
years Is but per cent, and the Mtchi-
gan census also shows but small in
crease. This is not up to the gain In
Massachusetts, which Is II per cent, or
to that in New Jersey, which Is 16 per
cent during the same time. The cities
are responsible for the largest portion
OF this, and the manufacturing towns
come next.-Boston Herald.

The French Woman Who Has Come to
Tell Us How to Live.
1t is likely that when Louise Michel
visits the West, the actual sight of her
on the platform will dissipate much of
the halo of romance that surrounds her
as viewed by socialist eyes across three
thousand miles of perspective. She Is
a most unattractive woman, physically
tall, masculine and raw-boned, and
even the charm of youth is absent, for
she is sixty-six. An American reporter
who tried to find her for an interview
six years ago in Paris had curious ex-
perience. The anarchist was then liv-
ing shabbily in the Rue Victor Hugo,
outside the Notifications Of Paris. The
reporter sought her in the aristocratic
Avenue Victor Hugo, and was discon-
ccrted when the servant at the mis-
taken address slammed the door in his
face at mention of her name, ratified
the chain-bolt within, and exhibited
other signs of alarm.
