On the Orinoco.

Scrambling through a creek choked
with bulrushes many times higher than
our heads we climbed up the clay bank
and attempted to push through the dense
underground in the direction of the tur-
MOL. More easily said than done
The profound density of that tropical
forest is indescribable. Therns, palms,
lianas and other creepers were bound to-
gether in an elastic but impenetrable mass,
and it was only by crawling on all fours
that any progress was possible. Fearsome
creatures, but half seen in the somber for
est shade, wriggled away through the ooze
at our sSproach and at each step swarms
of mosquitoes rose from the decaying veg
citation, settling with determined ferocity
on every available bare spot of skin. Once
we ran our heads against what seemed a
thick Llama, but which, twisting rapidly
away, proved to be large anaconda. I'm
fortunately he was out Of sight before a
rifle could be disentangled.
Suddenly deep throated roar resound-
ed in a tree just over our heads, and, look
ing up with tingling nerves, we found it
had been emitted by nothing more formi-
dable than a large gibbon, which, not being
deemed worthy of powder and lead was
left unmolested, and, torn, bleeding, drip
ping with perspiration and half frantic
from mosquito poison, we returned sor-
~ spectacle to the launch. Chambers

A RUSSIAN SUPERSTITION.

According to the New York Tribune
a widespread belief exists in Russia that
the popular General Skobeleff, nicknamed
the White General, is not really dead,
but that he will reappear when his coun-
try shall have need of his sword. Accord
ing to the story, it was merely man re-
sembling him who was buried, his disap-
pearance from the scene having been due
TO causes OF an international as well as
dynastlc character 1t may be remem-
bered thabhis alleged death at Moscow
mas always been shrouded by consider
able amount of mystery. 1t is implicitly
believed by the rank and file OF the Mus
covite army, as well as by the peasantry,
tnat the General had hand in the last
Chlnese-Japanese war, commanding a
Japanese regiment under a false name.
Ills most intimate friend, Baron Hetroov,
now dead, was Russian Envoy in Japan
at the time. His return was announced at
VIadikaykas the other day, and several
thousand moujiks and soldiers assembled

ETHICS OF BOOK BORROWING.
How to Take Care of Volume Lent to
You.

In spite of Poloniuss fatherly INDUCTION
to Laertes 'neither a borrower nor
lender be,'' most of us borrow a new
book now or then, or receive it from the
generous owner who insists upon lending
it. Some people take the book carelessly,
others do not rest until it is read and re-
turned to the keeping of its proprietor,
says the Philadelphia Record.
Thu first thing TO do with borrowed
book is to cover it with thick paper to
protect the covers from accidental splash
es or from lingering. Do not wait day
or SO, but cover it at once as soon as you
receive it. Write the name of the book
plainly on the paper cover also the own
er's name. If yousare one of large fam
lily and the borrowed book is likely to be
laid on table where anyone can pick it
up write on the cover, "This book is not
to be left on the library table," for in
spite OF dainty davenport arrangements
the library table often means close associ-
alton with an inkstand, vinaigrette, OF
flower vase containing water, or some re-
ceptacle of fluid which may be accidental.
ly overturned and spot the borrowed
book.
Do not read little in the borrowed
book and put it aside while you read three
or four other more interesting books
Begin it and get through it, reading as
steadily as you can until it is finished,
and then return it promptly. Do not
wait until Thursday or Sunday, "be-
cause you will surely see the owner
be safely off your hands.
1t is provoking to have a book bor-
rowed and kept for an indefinite time; it
prevents others who may be awaiting the
book from the opportunity of enjoying
it. If the borrower finds herself not likely
to find time to read it, she should return
it at once, and ask for the privilege of
borrowing it another time.
Never. never, lend to another q book
that you have borrowed! Let not that
piece of superficial dishonesty be laid to
your charge. Never permit your pencil
to make any mark or annexation in a
borrowed book. If you think date is
misstated, or any piece of information
likely to be Of use in collateral reading
recurs to you,syou are at liberty to write
it on slip of paper and to leave it in the
book at the page where it belongs. No
one should ever score passage or word
in a borrowed book. This is inexcusable.
Few of US could subscribe to Charles
Lambs suggestion, advising possessors
of books to be shy of showing them, but
if you do lend them let it be, to one who
will return them with usury enriched
with annotations TRIPPING their value.
Return borrowed book in the condi-
rion in which you received it.

A Memory with One Failing.

sIones was telling his friend Smith of an
incident that had occurred some 25 years
ago, and the latter remarked on the won
derful memory his friend possessed.
The compliment seemed to please Jones.
Yes, my boy, he said, II never forget
anything when it is once in there, f" point
ing to his forehead
You surprise me. But think I can
tell you of o little thing about which your
memory has singularly failed"
what is it?"
''Well, old man, how about that half
sovereign lent you month or SO ago?'
All you see, that's different. I put
that in my pocket. Pearson Weekly.

WHAT IS A CREOLE?

the term, however, is one who is born of
Ere lch parents in the FrancoLatin
States of the South; especially Louisiana.
Alabama and florida. In those States
the Creole is the high-caste native, but
the term has been misused to designate the
mixed mulatto races, descended from
Spanish or French fathers, and Indian or
other native mothers; but this use is in
correct in too. The word comes from the
Spanish 'crillo," or the word "criada, :"
signifying "born here" In tae Gulf
coast region the generic term "aygo"
Ga corruption of the Spanish name
"Diego'') is use to cover all the mixed
races, except the Creole proper. He is

ever proud of his blue blooded descent,
and not infreqlently comes from an old
and titled family. He is proud, gracious,

The Creole women have languid and

RAILWAY oWFERst Up,
Where the Proprietorshlp la Vested in the
State.

Knights of Labor journal makes the
following statement respecting the Gov
eminent ownership of railways:
1t is not as well understood as it ought
to be that the Union Pacific railroad is
now and has been since the first of this
year the property of, for it's own use and
benefit, the United States Government.
1t is true that foreclosure proceedings
have een.begun to secure the first mort
gage bondholders, while entirely count
ing outithis. Federal right and ownership.
A good deal is to be said about this mat
ter. Meanwhile the situation of other
Governments in regard to railway owner
ship and operation possesses an interest
ing bearing upon the question. Senators
Allen, Gear and Butler are responsible
for the following statistics, they, espeo-
tally the former, having sifted this matter
down into simple shape better than most
other compilers:
The Argentine Republic owns 62O miles
of railway,
In Australia five sixth of the railways
are the property of the Colonial Govern
ments.
Austria Hungary owns about 40 per
cent OF the total mileage and operates
abont 70 per cent.
Ihree-fourths of the mileage of Belgium
is owned and operated by that country.
Brazil owns one-fourth and does one
nall OF all its railway business.
Canada owns one-tenth of the total
mileage.
In Cape of Good Hope, English South
African, one half is owned by that Govern
ment.
Columbia subsidies with understand
ing that it shall own at the end of
period.
Denmark owns and. runs three fourths
of its mileage,
Egypt owns all.
France will ultimately own all of its
roads. At present it has mixed system
of private and state.
Germany owns 80 per cent.
England 8 act Of 1874 gives it an option
to own all roads by purchase at the rate
OF sum. equal to 25 years annual profits,
estimated by three years of annual profits
preceding date of purchase.
Greece owns part of its railways.
Guatemala likewise.
Holland owns half
India two-thirds.
Italy owns all, but leases them
Japan owns small percentage, while
retaining an option of purchase on roads
built since 1887.
Mexico railway charters give govern.
ment an option of purchase.
Nicaragua owns all.
Norwaylowns all.
Paraguay owns all.
Portugal owns 3S per cent, and all
railways revert to the government in
ninety nine years.
Russia owns 40 per cent. and the other
60 are subsidized by the government.
| Russia controls all dividends paid by
means of a state board of directors subject
to government approval.
| Sweden owns one-third.
| In United States, Illinois built rail-
road, but sold it..
Indiana has constructed railways.
Georgia now owns.one.
| Pennsylvania built one from Philadel-
| phia to Columbia, but sold it.
| Massachusetts, Michigan and several
other states have built and own roads,
| North Carolina has built two roads
operates one and leases the other; both
pay we'll.
| 1t is not the purpose here to give the
Iadyantages.or disadvantages of govern
| ment ownership, but merely to draw at
tention to the facts as they exist
