A Curious MigratiOr.

A writer in the New England Maga.
zine presents the results of his per-
sonal investigation OF curious migra-
tion that has been going on for a few
years past from the Northwestern
portion of the United States to Mani
toba, Assiniboia, Alberta and other
portions of British Columbia lying
north of the Dakotas and Montana.
According to S. A. Thompson, the
writer of the article, steady stream
of emigration from the Northwestern
portions of the United States to tie
wheat-growing regions of British Co.
lumbia mentioned has been noticeable
for some time. In one place in AL
berta he found settlement containing
q population of about one thousand,
of whom seven hundred were from the
United States. He discovered that
the Canadian Pacific Railroad Com
pany was selling land in small tracts
to hundreds of American families, and
he found record of no less than 513
homestead entries made by settlers
from the United States. representing
1862 persons.
Mr.. Thompson was curious to dis
cover the motives which led these
American farmers to leave their own
country. Many individual reasons
were given, but the main cause, as
Mr.. Thompson says, is to be found in
the fact that the desirable public lands
have been exhausted by entries or
gobbled up by the great railroad mo-
nopolists in the United States. In
British Columbia there is almost an
inexhaustible supply of farming land
suitable for stock raising and grain
culture, to be had on terms quite as
favorable as those extended to Ameri.
can settlers In their own country.
Mr.. Thompson g. ests as a remedy
for this emigration reclamation of
the vast arid regi II the United
States by irrigation his would open
up an immense res ,oL for settlement

that OF the Far North.-San Francisco

A learned German asserts that the
aversion against horse meat as an arti.
Gle of diet is senseless prejudice
based wholly on an interdict issued by
the church during the Dark Ages to
prevent the revival of heathen wor-
ship, in which the sacrifice and subse-
quent consumption of horses had
played cherished role. The New
York World maintains that horse flesh
is clean. remarkably free from disease
and contains more albumen than beef
does. ''Corned horse" smells and
tastes like goose meat. In many Euro.
pean hospitals horse flesh soup is espe.
cially prescribed for patients in need

A Remarkable Railway.

One OF the most peculiar railways
in America is the elevated railway
across the Isthmus OF Panama. Tho
only steam used ON this remarkable
railway is supplied by the brawny
arms of half-naked Indians, who,
turning a handle. work the machine
like rude velocipede. The car is
something after the shape OF the
small hand-drivon machines used by
navvies on our railways, and holds
about three passengers, not including
the native propellers. who have to
walk while working. The position In
which the passengers are placed, il
scarcely SO comfortable as seat in q
Pullman car. affords Mt least capital
opportunity OF studying the peculiari.
ties OF the beautiful tropical scenery
below. OF hearing the morning call OF
the whistling grasshopper, the screech-
ing OF green paroquets. and all the
minstrelsy OF the woods. with, IL may
be, the howl of m occasional baboon.
4 collision ON this line. however, aud
an abrupt descent into the mass OF
foliage beneath, migAt lead to a closer
acquaintance than desirable with
spiders. centipedes and snakes, which
abound In the vicinity OF the railway.
