1.-TWO empires by the sea.
Two nations, great and free,
One anthem raise.
One race of ancient fame
One tongue. one faith we claim,
One God. whose glorious name,
We love and praise.
What deeds our fathers wrought,
What battles we have fought,
Let fame record.
Now vengeful passions cease;
Come, victories Of peace:
Nor hate nor pride's caprice
Unsheath the sword.
Though deep the sen. and wide,
'TwiXt realm ami realm its tide
Binds strand To strand.
So he the gulf between
Gray coasts and islands green,
Great popuiacc and queen,
BY friendship sDanned
"Now may the God above
Guard the dear lands we love,
Or east or west
Let love moro fervcnt glow,
AS peaceful ages go.
And strength yet stronger grow,
BLESSING and hlcst"

Railroad Changes.

Fro n the Chicago Evening Post
An investigation into the number of
changes that has been made IN the official
staff of American railroads within the last
three months shows that the record has
been broken in this respect. More changes
have been made in the time specified than
in any previous two years. Scores of Of
ficials have been thrown out of positions in
the higher offices and hundreds in the less
prominent offices, such as freight and pas
senger contracting agents. The changes in
the latter have been principally dismissals
bro ight about by the reduction of forces.
The organization of the Joint Traffic As
ISOLATION is responsible for A large number
of these dismiSsals. Aside from this the
shaking up which has taken place in the
Grand Trunk has let out many old men
there and caused many changes i'm the
Wabash. The reorganization of the Santa
Fe is also responsible for many railroad
men finding themselves out of positions.
The same is true of the Erie. There have
also been an unusual number of changes
on the Vandalia, the Lehigh Valley, the
Chesapeake and Ohio. the Big Four, the
Toledo. St. Louis and Kansas City and the
Baltimore and Ohio.

The first batch of warrants under the

Prof. j. D. Hird who, as a representative
of the health department, brought many
dealers, including dairymen and grocery
men, to justice more than a year ago. is
again in the business, and today he swore
cut twelve warrants against dairynen and
one against grocer for the alleged sale of
SKINNED milk for the pure unadulter-
ated article.
Inspectors of the health department are
still gathering samples of milk from the
dealers, and this afternoon Prof. Hird was
busy examining additional samples. Some
OF them turned out the same as in the
cases where warrants were issued this
morning, and. as already stated. additional
warrants will be sworn out in the near fu-
ture.
Speaking to a Star reporter this after
noon, Prof. Hird said there would be very
little trouble if the dealers would sell the
milk as they got it from the shippers, for
nearly every sample taken from cans at
the depots has turned out we'll
The warrants issued today will be sent
out this afternoon and some of the cases
may be tried Saturday morning.

FENCE 100 MILES LONG.
Battles of the Australians With the |
Destructive Rabbit.
From the Troy Budget.


From the Troy Budget.
The New South Wales government, it
may be remembered, offered a reward of
900 to any person or persons who could
suggest an efficient method of getting rid
of the rabbit but, although this liberal
reward led to the receipt of no fewer than
1900 schemes from all parts Of the world,
none of them was regarded as satisfactory,
and the offer was withdrawn.
The final outcome of royal commissions,
of intercolonial conferences and Of the
testing of every practical method of eX-
termina alton, is that the most effectual
method of dealing with the evil is found to
be the construction of rabbit-proof net
ting by means Of which the animals can
be kept from acres not yet infested, can be
shut off from food supplies and can be
more efectual!y dealt with locally.
The length OF some of these fences is
enormous. There is one starting at Bar
ringun, on the Queensland border, and fol-
lowing the Main Trunk line from Bourke
to Corowa-a distance of 401 miles; and
there is another along the entire western
boundary of New South Wales-a distance
of 346 miles. The Queensland government
too, has erected a similar fence along
considerable portion of the northern
boundary of New South Wales, but the
surveyor general of Queensland, in the re-
rabbits must have come through the fence
in mobs and droves of nnumerable multi
tudes at some time and thus have estab-
Gsned themselves in Queensland as well.
This, of course, is the weak point in re-
gard to fences. which are liable to break
down in places, n ore especially in times
of flood and where they cross over creeks
while keeping of constant supervision over
the fences, so that immediate repairs can
be done when openings appear is quite
impracticable where the distances are so
great. In many instances countless thou
sands of rabbits have been seen on one
side of fence dead or dying of starvation.
after eating all the available food supplies.
and leaping up at the fence in their at
tempts to surmount it. One can imagine
how they would rush through In the event
of any opening appearing and how a sin
gle break in the fence might be the doom
of a country not previously infested

A SILV Err TICK E T
The Talk of an Independent Nomination
Now Being Revived.
silver Democrats disappointed mt the
Michigan Result-Tnlk With
Senator Jones

The failure of the silver men in Michigan
and the speech of Teller in the Senate yes
terday have revived the talk of an indie
pendent silver nomination for the presi-
dency. The silver democrats, who are hop
ing that they will be able to control the
democratic convention, are not joining in
this talk today, lest it look too much like
abandoning their claims on the party.
The silver men without such party ties
and those who belong to the republican
party generally speak of the result in
Michigan as strongly indicating that the
two old party conventions will declare for
gold. and that the silver men will have to
act Independently if they are to have any
voice in the election. There is no doubt
felt that there will be a bolt in the Chicago
convention. and the declarations of Mr.. Tel
Ter clearly indicate that certain extreme
silver men intend not to abide by the result
OF the st. Louis convention. The men who
nave Tor some time been insisting that
there should be an independent silver cam
dlaate display much qualification.
ihe silver democrats are greatly disap-
pointed at their defeat in Michigan. They
had been informed that large majority
OF the delegates were instructed to vote
Tor silver, and they We're, therefore, not
prepared for defeat.
What Senator Jones Says.
Senator Jones of Arkansas. who is one
OF the chief representatives, of the silver
democrats. said this morning.:
Il have not received sufficient inforna-
ton as to the details of the Michigan con-
Ventioa to speak positively on the subject.
My understanding is that q majority of in
the nelShborhood of 200 delegates were in

OF argument enough Were drawn over to
the other side to accomplish the result re-
ported.

from what l hear. AS far as the loss Of
the delegates to the national convention is
concerned, 1t Is not a matter of great con-
sequence, though naturally a matter of
disappointment. AS l understand it, We
still have eleven silver delegates from
Michigan. If We lost them all it would not
prevent our controlling the convention We
shall have majority of hundred Or more
