NOT A CUT,
But the Great Northern Equalization
Works Largely One Way.


SEATTLE, Wash, March 14-The
Great Northern railroad has made an
other reduction in the wages of it's en-
ployes, the men affected being agents,
telegraph operators, cashiers and en-
gine wipers. The scaling down dates
from March l, although the circular
letter making the change is dated
March 8. The change is not called a
cut, but an equalization, because some
salaries have been raised, but the in
creases are very few, and the amount
in any instance does not exceed $3.50
per month, while the reductions
amount to as high as $3.50. The en-
tire coast line in Washington suffers
from the change. Employees say the
cut is directly in violation of the agree
ment made with the president and the
st. Paul arbitration board in April,
1898. Telegraph operators suffer the
most, and some of them intend to re-
sign. There is yet no sign of strike.

of Ohio, has made a formal demand on the
war department on behalf of the Thirteenth
Ohio volunteers for the cannon in CaDitoI
park here, captured at the battle of Shiloh by
the Fourteenth Wisconsin volunteers. Gen.
Racket claims that the possession of the gun
was originally gained by his regiment. AS
the cannon is rich in historic memories the
Wisconsin officials will contest Ohio's claim.

The very unusual story of swapping
a daughter for wife is reported from,
Toledo, Wash, says the New Yorl,
World. A farmer named Thompson
lost his wife a short time ago. She left
him little baby girl The child he
took to a neighbor by the name OF Put
nam TO be cared for. OF course fire.
quent visits were made to see how the
baby was getting along.
Mrs. Putnam was quite a comely per
son and very soon attracted the atten
tion of the widowed farmer. Then he
soon learned to love her and, worst of
ell, his love was reciprocated. The hus-
band discovered the situation The low
ers naturally expected a scene but there
was none.
Instead of making the neighboring
hills resound with jealous rage Putnam
called upon Thompson and they dis
cussed the matter in a business-like
manner Putnam professed to be tired
Of his wife and said he would as lief that
some other fellow would take her away
as not; but he wanted something in re-
turn. He wanted some one around the
house to minister to his wants; som
one he could learn to love. Thompson
had a daughter who suited him very
well and, if it was just the same. he was
willing TO trade his wife for her. That
suited Thompson and the girl. too. SO
a bargain was struck and the exchange
made. Thompson and Mrs Putnam went
to Aberdeen and the girl to Castle Rock

The United States Contrasted with tn,

The great fact stands boldly forti
that Canada has never fought the In
dams, and she win not begin to do 81
now. Never has Canada had an Indian
var; an Indian massacre is unknown il
the annals of her history. She is toe
POOR to seek glory by slaughtering the
| natives born of her soil and too proud
to defame her character or stain hcl
! escutcheon. Contrast with this, says
the Westminster Review, the policy of
the United States, that is nearly al
ways fighting its red men. Indian wars
are very expensive matters to deal
with. The small episode of last year,
beginning with the Messiah craze anil
ending with the tragedy at Pine Ridge
agency, covering but few weeks, cost
the United States government $2,00O,-
600, besides the lives lost, and in adj
dition unsettled the natives through
out the country. 1t is to the credit of
the Canadian Indians that, although
sorely tempted, the Messiah craze had
no charms for them. There was in
Canada, it is true, Riel's last rebellion,
that cost Canada $7,OOO,OOO and the
lives of some of her noblest citizens.
But that was not an Indian uprising.
Nevertheless, it taught both the white
men and the rcd men lesson. It
taught Canada that it would be cheaper
to ration all the Indian tribes than to
have another rebellion; and it taught
the Indian the prowess of the authori-
ties, and this was emphasized by the
trips given the Indian chiefs to On
talio, where they beheld tokens of the
power, wealth and glory of the white
men.

a French scientist has been making
experiments with the growth of plants
under different conditions of colored
light Under the method of expert
ment the endeavor was made to keep
the plants under similar conditions of
temperature, moisture, soil, etc. SO
that it would be reasonable to infer
that any abnormal differences in
growth would be due to the difference
in light conditions. It is reported, as a
result of this experiment, that the red
light produced even more noteworthy
results than white light in the way Of
forcing growth. While the plants
were strong and vigorous under the in
fiuence of white light, those under the
led panes of glass grew to greater
height and burst into bloom earlier
the plants under the frame of blue
sglass showed little if any growth. but
the leaves grew decidedly darler.-De.

th.. I.ndv.

History records the occurrence Of
most disastrous fires. A few times CIT
own country has been visited in this
way with tremendous force. Yet how
insignificant they seem when com
pared TO the raging fires of the sun.
A recent writer in one of our monthly
journals, illustrates the enormous heat
which the sun gives ou5, as follows
he says that if all the coal which exists
on this globe could be placed in one
mass, and then immediately burned
up, IL would not produce as much heat
as the sun throws Off into space IN
one-tenth of a second OF course, we
cannot comprehend what this means,
But there is another fire constantly
burning, of which many of US are
not aware, although we live very close
to it.
We all know that the human body is
warmer than the surrounding atmos-
phere; while during cold weather the
difference is very marked What keeps
the body warm? Because it is con-
stantly burning up.
We replenish the fire in the stove by
adding more coal or wood. The oXv-
gen of the air unites with this fuel and
heat is produced. The fuel FOR the
body is our food and the oxygen
obtained from the air we breathe
combines with il AID heat is produced.
This heat is constantly escaping from
the skin. During summer VIC dress
lightly to aid its escape. During
winter we put on fiannels, because
wool is not good conductor of heat,
and win not allow it to escape so freely
from the surface of the body.
If a person is plump in flesh, that is,
II he has layer of fat just beneath
the skin, he has a medium which holds
in the heat of the body, as a layer of
wool does when placed on the outside
of the skin. Persons who are plump in
flesh do not shiver with every cool, in
breeze. Neither do they
require so much food, for as the heat
cannot escape so readily, so it is not
necessary to add as much fuel. Plump
ness means protection defense against
coughs and colds shelter for an escape
from neuralgia and seiatica; shield

many well-llnown Americans under its
roof all the time. Among others
Duchess de la Rochefoucauld, when
she was Miss Matte Mitchell, of Ore
cOn, lived there with her mother. This
boarding house is near the Are de
lriOmphe, and the landlady has made
a fortune out of her American boa1ders;
she says her daughters dot is 100000
francs. The food is not any too good
enc gets rather too much veal there
but the cooking is excellent. There is
another large pension in the Champs

Of q packing case are seven francs a day,

have TO be tipped all the time, as Tie
