 BTLL TH ERE BE 4 GOLD QUESTION?
 If what is said of the Transvaal gold region is true there may be gold question within the next quarter of century which will be as troublesome as the silver question. pr. George F. Becker, a geologist of the United States survey who has just returned from that region makes some astonishing state- ments. He says that within fifteen miles of Johannesburg, on what is call ed the main reef series, there is an amount of gold, practically in sight, es- timated to be worth $3,500, ,000,000, or nearly as much as the entire volume of gold coin now in the world. He says, practically in sight" because the gold is extraordinarily uniform, as uniform as coal in an ordinary deposit, as shown by shafts which have been sunk to O depth of 1,S00 feet, and diamond drillings which have gone much fur ther. But the most surprising news which Dr. Becker brings is the testi- mony Of an American, who was for merly his assistant in the Geological survey, and who is now engaged in mining in the Transvaal, where he has made several millions of dollars. This American mining expert says that to the best of his knowledge and belief the gold deposit, instead of being thirty miles long-the region now in sight-is practically 1,200 miles long, except that in the rest of the region, later deposits, like coal, have come in over the gold. This, however. will not prevent econ omical mining, but will simply delay getting at it. The Transvaal is very level high land, and when the outcrop- ping in sight is disposed of, other de- posits must be reached for by borings, and this adds very uncertain element. In this whole region the gold is found in metamorphosed pudding stone which the Germans call an almond cake" It consists of pebbles or quartz | in a sandy matrix.

ports of their products show no signs of falling off. Indeed, If they continue as at present, the increase in the fiscal year of 1897 will be as great as was that in 1896, On the basis of the returns for the first two months of the current year the total for the twelvemonth will be about $27O, O,OOO,O 900, as compared with S22S o0o,0 ,000 last year. Since the first or January the total increase in all do- mestic exports has been nearly $S0,ooo,- 000, of which nearly half has been m manufactured goods. It is not surpris- ing that some gold is coming our way
 Wisconsin has at this late day not less than 5000 Indians. One-haf or these speak enough English for the purposes of ordinary conversation, and more than one-third read the English language. Practically all wear the or dinary citizens dress. They are fast learning to recognize the legality or marital relations. Eighty-flve per cent. of them are engaged in pursuits of clv- ilized life; 10 per cent. in hunting, fish ing. root-gathering and the like; only per cent. live exclusively on govern ment rations Of the 1,s00 Oneidas, the 1900 Menomonees and the 800 Stcck- bridges and Munsees all live on labor in civilized pursuits. Many of the Onel- das compare favorably in thrift clean lincss and rational life enjoyment With the whites in their vicinity. This IS the testimony of w. H. IIailman, Su- perlntendent of Indian Schools. The Oneidas, Menomonees, Stockbridges and Munsees, he says, are remarkable for sobriety and for their growing re- spect for woman. They are honest in their dealings with others, patient un- der misfortune and injustice. frugal, industrious, elf-contained, kind to their families, solicitous for the welfare of their children, eager at all times to do their best according to the light they possess and the opportunities af- forded them in their environment. They are fairly good material for citizenship, MT. Hailman thinks, and he looks for ward to the no-distant day when they will be admitted to the franchise and cease to be wards of the national gov ernment.

----------- AN IMPRESSIVE INCIDENT.

Tn his letter of acceptance Major Me- Kinley said: It shall be my earnest aim to improve every opportunity to advance the cause of good government by promoting that spirit of forbear- ance and justice which is so essential to our prosperity and happiness by joining most heartily in all proper eff forts to restore the relations of broth erly respect and affection which in our early history characterized all the peo- pie of all the States I would be glad to contribute towards binding in indi- visible union the different divisions of the country, which, indeed, now "have every inducement of sympathy and interest to weld them together more strongly than ever. I would rejoice to see demonstrated to the world that the North and the South and the East and the West are not separated, or in dan ger of becoming separated, because of sectional or party differences. The war is long since over; i've are not enemies, but friends" and as friends we will faithfully and cordially cooperate un- der the approving smile of Him who has thus far 50 signally sustained and guided us, to preserve inviolate our country's name and honor, it's peace and good order, and it's continued as- tendency among the greatest govern ments on earth.
 Yesterday a. band of Confederate vet erans of the Shenandoah valley paid their respects to Major Mckinley at his home in Canton. They wore badges on which were printed these generous | words, uttered by General Grant at | Appomattox: "Take your horses home, | for you will need them for spring plow- i ing" Nothing more impressive and | significant has been seen at Canton
 than these Confederate veterans who
 are now at one with the Union veterans 1 in patriotic intent and work to save the l country from the danger that menaces
 it. It will be a great blessing to this
 country if the breaking up of the silver gang is accompanied by the breaking
 up of the solid South.

FASHION NOTES.
Pointers in Headwear.

The "hide pin" is still an important part of the trimming and finish of hats. It usually takes the form of a pair of low rosettes set under the hat brim at either side of the back, hugging the knot of hair closely All those hideous jeweled hat pins that we indulged in last year are to be thrown away, all except the simply set and handsomely cut single crystals. These the clever woman adjusts exactly in the center of the rosette, and pin and rosette togeth- CT transform the disfiguring pin of yore, with it's insufficient hold from a stab through delicate texture, into an ornament and a comfortable device for firmly securing the hat
 One of the prettiest of the new hat shapes is shown in this sketch. It sug- gests the English walking hat but was in black velvet, the brim waving slight ly at each side and dropping in front. It was trimmed with a number of small

4 RI,SU EDUCAYOE.

President John E. Clark of the De- troit board of education being in his last term as president or the board ap- pears to feel that he can say some things which have been borne in upon him. during his career as a director of education and educators. What he says will not please some of the young people whose convenience and comfort seem to be the main things nowadays
 Often 1t happens, he says, that the spoiled boy who defies his father and kicks and spits at his mother is turned over to us and the injunction given to the teacher to treat carefully this sen- sitive plant, above all not to use force. If he treat you as he has treated his parents before, reply to his insults and calumny with honeyed words, and above all avoid shocking the delicate flower by any exhibition of frnnness. If you report him to the principal for the tl1rashing which he so richly de- serves, it will be marked down against you, and you will be classified among those who neglect moral suasion.'' He wonders if the idea of moral suasion has not been carried to excess, and if the increasing number of incorrigibles may not bear some relation to this ''senti- mentality" He feels that he is ''ter- ribly heterodox in even suggesting that good sound thrashing oecasion- ally would be of more benefit to a cap

 Well, well! This will not do, MT. Clark, The day Is gone by when a good whipping improved a child.

A man dining in Narbonne (France) restaurant drew one hundred dollar franc note from his pocketbook to pay for his dinner, while his soup was cool ing. The bill flew into the soup was fished out and placed on the edge of the table to dry, when it fell to the floor. An intelligent poodle in the room thought it was for him and swallowed it. The owner of the note then sued the poodle's master for the hundred francs, and the local court has decided that the latter must pay.
