Immigrant Traffic Troubles.
1t is stated that the affairs of the West
ern immigrant clearing house have been
somewhat improved by the consent of the
Union Pacific to act in harmony with the
other competing lines, but there are many
obstacles, it is said to overcome before all
friction can be removed and normal condi-
tons re-established. The New York immi-
grant agents are still paying excessive
commissions, and no definite action has

Southern Pacific shows no disposition to

money that can be nimbly

keep capital active; to have
it idle means loss: first, in

If a dealer buys right there
is nOnecessity for selling be-

Our prices are right; if they

money.
We've other sorts, some
lots higher than a dollar, but
the handles and case counts
for something. There is no
better cutlery than we han

Hamlin Garland contributes an iu-
teresting article to the Ladies' Home
Journal on the homes and home life
of the Pueblo Dwelling Indians (Oliff-
Dweilers of the Southwest) whom ne
designates as 'The Most Mysterious
People in America. at took fear of
man to set these villages on these
heights, he writes. "As I approached
Walpi could hardly believe anything
living was upon it. The houses.
massive, dirt colored, fat and square
as rocks, secreted themselves upon the
cliff, like turtles. The first evidence
of life was small field of corn set
deep in the wash or dry river bed.
Then an old man watching it-seated
beneath shade of pinon boughs. Then
some peach trees knee deep in sand.
Then some red roof houses built by the
Government. By this time could
see tiny figures moving about on the
high ledges and on the roofs of the
houses. Up the trail a man on burro
was driving flock of sheep and goats.
He wore light cotton trousers and a
calico shirt. His legs were bare, and
on his head was straw hat. Farther
up the trail some old women were toll.
ing with huge bottles of water slung
on their backs. From the moment
entered that trail was deep in the
elemental past. Here was life reduced
to its simplest form. Houses of heavy
walls, with interiors like cellars or
caves, set for defense upon cliff.
Here were fiat roofs, thick, to keep
out the sun and to make O dooryard
Tor the next tier of houses above.
Here were nude children with tangled
hair, wild as colts and feet as ante:
lopes, dancing on crags as high as
church spires. Here were dogs just
one remove from wolves-solemn dogs,
able to climb a ladder. Here were
men and women seated upon the floor
and eating from plaques of willow and
bowls of clay Of their own shaping and
burning"

The engineering work which may
have considerable effect on coastwise
ireights is the reconstruction of the
Dismal Swamp Canal, which is de.
signed to afford a waterway between
the north and south seacoasts, avoid
ing the dangers of Hatteras. This
canal is historic one, having been
begun in 1857 and constructed in ten
years, largely by slave labor, to the
depth OF four feet and width of
thirty-two feet. It extends from
Elizabeth City, near Norfolk, Va., to
che head waters of the Pasguotank
River, distance OF twenty-five miles,
there connecting with nayigsble
streams which reach the ocean south
Of Hatteras. In its early years it paid

width of sixty feet. and the venture is

by December 81, 1897.

Horseless Carriages in Paris.

Answering applications from the
omnibus company and the Compagne
des Voltures of Paris the Prefect OF
Police has decided to allow petroleum
carriages to take the place of horse
carriages and tram cars in the streets
of the city. Other companies in con-
troll of tho various means of public
conveyance have turned their atten-
tion to the subject of automobiles, and
are preparing for the revolution in
traffic, which appears to be imminent,
arevolutlon from which they will de-
rive considerable benefit. The auto
mobiles owned by private persons are
now u common sight in Paris streets,
and the Journal des Debats says they
will soon be as frequently used as a
public means of transportation as
licensed cab.
Among the advantages which tho
company would derive from the
change would be protection from the
uncertainties of expenditure caused
by mortality among its horses, and
by the great fluctuations in the prices
of fodder. Another important point
is made by NJ. z. roy-Beaulieu, the
celebrated writer on economies, who,
in recent issue of the Economiste
Francais, shows that on the substitu-
tion of automobiles for horses the
company would have little to fear
from a strike. At present when q
strike breaks out the company cannot
hold out long, for its horses are eating
their heads off and are also suffering
from want OF exercise. Automobiles,
on the other hand, would cost nothing
while out of work. New York Press.

Three Pictures From One.

A pictorial white elephant, says the
P,oston Transcript, which had hung
fire for an uncomfortable time in the
galleries of Boston dealer, was un-
doubtedly too large to be hung in any
ordinary room. It vas an Oriental
encampment scene, with Arabs, horses,
camela, tents, fires, etc., in the twi-
light, with rosy afterglow warming
the western sky. There was enough
material in the composition for trio
of pictures, aud the shape, which was
uncommonly wide in relation to its
height, facilitated the surgery which
was at last determined upon as des'
perate resort. The work was done
with skill. Elegant frames were built
for the three new pictures, and before
long three customers were made happy
at a comparative triiing expense.
Each of thoir works is by an eminent
French Orientalist. but whether his
name is signed to all three or not We
cannot say.

to the Nation under whose rule they
must meet the dnties of citizenship.

must meet the duties of citizenship.
Love of country is the first lessor
of childhood so far as the making ot
Nations goes, aud this certainly liz 6
we'll learned leason with the youth oi
Caba. When q flibustering boat
landed on the Cuban shore not long
ago with numbers of youthful in.
surgents aboard, though they had
lived several years in the States, they
hurried from the vessel and fell upon
the ground and kissed the very soil Of
their native land.
The second lesson of citizenship in
childhood is loyalty to National Gov
ernment. This the children of Cuba
have never had, for they have nearly
all caught from infancy an inspiration
Of disobedience to Spanish rule. This,
OF course, with reference to the native
Cubans as distinct from the Spanish
citizens who claim the island as their
adopted home, having moved there
from Spain.
With such environment it is easy to
see that the lives of the young people
of Cuba of the present day have been
pitched in poor season. Nevertheless,
it must not be deducted from this that
the young folks are growing up in il.
literacy to any extraordinary degree.
In Cuba there is a system of public
schools supported by the Spanish Gov.
ernment, and while it is not as COM
plete and thorough as it might be, Of
fers liberal advantages, particularly
to the children of the larger cities and
towns. Many of these schools are not
patronized very largely by the native
Cubans, because of the antagonism to
Spanish ofticialdom. Thus, it is often
the case that native Cuban families of
o neIghborhood will mutually hire
private teacher for their children
rather than send their boys and girls
to an institution established by the
Government. The Uniyersitad ut Ha.
yans is we'll patronized by the Cubans,
pnd this institution has given many o
young man good practical education
and skill for professional life. There
are in Havana several other institu-
tions for higher education and also
many schools and asylums established
by churches and benevolent institu-
lions. But, in times of feudal strife
and dissension, schools and colleges do |
not-cannot prosper. nor can they be
expected to fulfl thoir desired scope
Of usefulness and jurisdiction. As
among the wealthier
,lass of Cubans it is quite frequently
;he case that they send their boys to
he States to be educated at the lead
ng universities and colleges OF this
country.
