Some curious details of life in the po- lar regions have been obtained from members of the Nansen expedition. They all dwell on the feelings of de- light which they experienced in once
 more meeting other human beings. So tired did they become of seeing the same faces and hearing the same voices day after day in the course of the slow drift northward that in the end a feel
 ing of irritation was produced. At times this irritability became well-nigh insupportable. Finding it almost i'm possible to endure the sight of one an other, they would set off on long walks over the ice, each man by himself. It Bas an astounding thing, one man said,

Popular Science News declares that the demand for teams that are well matched has led to the bleaching and dyeing of horses until it has become an art. This artificial coloring, however, soon shows itself, and frequently there after the horses have to be touched np" Such processes are believed to be less injurious to the horse than to the purchaser, who is often deceived in that way.

Those who have promised their wives or their girls sealskin sacks this fall will have to suffer and be strong. The steamship Homer has just arrived at San Francisco with thirty thousand skins on board, anG that is the entire quantity allotted by the government to the North American Commercial com pany for this season. The catch of the whole sealing fleet this year is reported to have been very light, averaging hardly four hundred skins to each ves- sel. Indeed, experienced sealers do not hesitate to say that the herds have about disappeared.

A suit has just been brought in the Supreme court of New York by widow against the former directors of the Achfson, Topeka & Santa Fe Railroad company to recover $53,000 on account of losses sustained by the plaintiffs in- vestment in the stock of the road, which, she alleges, she never would have made but for the misleading state ments issued by the company as to their earnings. If the widow wins there are several people in New England who may feel inclined to initiate her.

elected from the State-st-large or from a

Every county in the First and Sec

In an interview, Gov. Bradley said
that he had never said that he would
call an extra session of the Legislature
for any of the dates that have been nam

would not call an extra session.
For the first time in its history the
democratic club OF New York celebrated

Mr.. Edward Lauterbsch, the republican
spell binder who said his party would
not submit to the election of Bryan, was
an honored guest. The name OF the
club ought to be changed and the men,

Secretary Richardson says that en-
great many ballots the voters cross was

SIX PHOES-

TINES ceaseless flight has brought us
to another Thanksgiving day and while
We ought at sll times humbly to acknowl-
edge the manifold blessings and mercies
bestowed upon US, individually and col
!ectively, yet ought we chiefly so to do
on this day Get apart by the powers that
be to return thanks to Almighty God for
His goodness TO us as Nation, and for
making ours the most favored of all
lands. Times may have been pretty
hard aud things NAV have gone sskew
p politically to many OF us, but the earth
has yielded bountifully to the husband
mans labor and few if any who have
toiled have suffered from actual want, at
least for something 10 eat, like the peo-
PIE of famine stricken India, nor has
wars dreadful alarm caused dismay and
death, as in bleeding Cuba and other
less favored portions OF the Universe.
Instead we are, to use trite expression
OF an early day president, "at peace with
all the world and the rest OF mankind"
with none TO vex us or make US afraid
since even John Bull has through the
rugged patriotism and wisdom OF Mr..
Cleveland been forced to subscribe to
the Monroe doctrine, which is now more
firmly established as the policy OF this
government than ever. This ultamatum
to kings and other potentates to hands
of" in attempting to acquire further
possessions on America ought to be
enough for thsnkfulness to every citizen
thereof and make him praise God from
Whom all blessings flow.
Thanksgiving is beautiful privilege
and duty, but almsgving by those whose
sore OF worldly goods are abundant is no
less a duty as it ought to be also priv
ilege. Let each person give to the poor
as God hath prospered him, and while
giving them cause for thanktulness, he
will feel the resl truth of the promise that
il is more blessed to give than to receive
So here's to our patrons and frierdsI
May their hearts over flow with thankful
ness and their tables groan under Il Q
weight OF turkeys and other good things.

There can hardly be better rule IN

such case is that each metal finds its true
level according to its intrinsic utility

AS long as gold, either from its in
trlnsic superiority as IL metal, from its
rarity, or from the preJrdices of man
kind, retains so considerable a pre-
emlnence in value over silver as it has
hitherto had, a natural consequence
of this seems to be that its condition
will be more stationary. The revolu-
tons, therefore, which may take place
IN the comparative value of gold and
silver will be changes in the state of
the latter rather than in that of the
former.-Alesander Hamilton.
