Restless Elephants.

The elephant Is SO bulky we can
hardly believe that he is really q most
restless creature, and the natives have
4 saying that IAN elephants shoulder
Is never STILL" A curious instance OF
their restless habits Is given by q sea-
captain in whose steamer forty ele-
plants had been shipped. The vessel
anchored In q perfectly smooth
sea of the coast Of Zanzibar. but. to the
great surprise Of the passengers, the
steamer began to roll. At first they
supposed the motion to be caused by
the ground-swell, but when the motion
kept increasing there was a general
alarm. and the captain made an in
spection Of the ship. Then II was re-
vealed that the elephants had In some
way found that by swaying to and fro
all together. a rocking motion was pro-
duced which seemed to please them
immensely. So the great heads and
bodies rolled and swung In unison, I'M
til the steamer, which had no other
cargo. and rolled light, was in immi-
nent danger Of rolling clean over. The
drivers were hurried down into the
hold, and, after a great deal of shout
ing and humping, they made the ele-
plants "break step" so to speak, and
thus stopped their dangerous amuse.

HiNpRANCE TO ouR Trade.
We Need Better Facilities for Carrying
Our Goods to Foreign Markets.

We Need Better Facilities for Carrying
Our Goods to Foreign Markets.
We need better facilities for carrying
odr goods to foreign markets. says the
North American Review. The United
states Is practically OF no account In
the carrying trade and In many
OF the large ports OF the world the
American flag is almost unseen and UNI
known as an emblem OF commerce.
In fifty years our foreign m
has increased from 1927, 4S9. 713 to ST.
662 .316, 962, but the total tonnage of
our merchant marine engaged In for
eign trade has decreased from 1.047-
i54 tons to 1922, 247 in the same time.
With nearly eight times the foreign
commerce we had half a century ago.
We now have only four-ffths Of the
ocean-carrying tonnage we then had.
More than two-thirds OF our imports
and exports formerly were carried In
American vessels, while now but little
more than a tenth Of this trade Is borne
In u ships. Not only 10 the profits
earned in transporting millions of dol
lars worth Of merchandise to and from
our ports pass chiefly into the hands
OF foreign vessel-ovners but the ves-
sells themselves are built in foreign
yards, giving employment to thousands
of men In an industry which ought TO
be planted In our country. As In
ocean commerce. 10 also In our finan-
cial relations with other countries we
are dependent largely upon the SER
vices rendered by foreign interests.
Particularly in our dealings with the
nations to the south of us we are in
urgent need OF direct international
banking facilities. We do $3.50, 900, 900
worth Of business with South America
In n year and yet all our balances have
to be settled through English or
European banking houses. In the
great trade centers Of South America
the English, the Germans, the French
and the Italians have their banks, but
I think that I am right In saying that
there is not an American bank in all
South America. Manifestly this u .
serious hindrance to our trade.

A Grucsome bohemian Church.

In the centre OF the arched roof OF
All Saints church, Sedlec, In Bohemia.
hangs a chandelier constructed entire
ly of human bones. The church In
which this remarkable object Is sus-
pended Is decorated from the floor to
the ceiling with the blanched bones OF
human bodies. Garlands Of bones
stretch across the walls and hang from
the ceiling. Pyramids. topped with
golden crowns, are artistically reared
from the ground with these whitened
remains Of the dead. The affairs are
literally covered with skulls. among
which are hundreds OF those which
had been pierced by bullets or crushed
by murderous blows from swords and
other weapons. denoting that these
grim relies Of humanity have been
gathered from adjacent battleflelds.
Tradition says that these piles Of
human bones were gathered by q blind
friar of the Cistercian Order. who
stored them In a corner Of the church.
As they were fast changing into their
original elements, a man named Rint
devoted himself to the task Of cleaning
and arranging them In the church.
Prince Carl Of Schwarzenberg took a
strong personal interest In the restora-
ton and arrangement OF the church.
and ordered all the repairs to be done
at his own expense. A large number
Of tourists visit this extraordinary

Contro, of State Institutions.

The interest of the state In these public
institutions amounts to millions OF dollars
and there are expended annually large
sums Of money for their maintenance in
conducting the business for which they
were constructed. They should each be
governed and controlled In such a way
as to bring about the greatest harmony
between the several institutions, as well
as the greatest economy In their manage
ment In the interest OF the taxpayers
OF the state. Their control and manage
ment heretofore by different bodies, and
as many different methods, has
been productive OF much needless expense
and friction as to the policies which should
obtain. This fact, ] doubt not. has become
quite apparent to every executive Of the
state of Nebraska. Governor Boyd in his
closing message to the legislature speaks
Of this matter as follows:
And In this connection ! would iSrther
call your attention to the fact hat there
are a number OF state Institutions over
which the authority OF the executive has
been by the statute taken from him. In
the case OF the Industrial school for boys
at Kenarney, Of the Industrial school for
girls at Geneva, of the Institution for
feeble minded at Beatrice n OF one or
two others. the appointing power Is
vested In the board OF public lands and
buildings. This board Is also by the consti-
tuition given full control OF all institu-
lions, n the executive has no check o.
them whatever. This should not be so.
The governor should have the power to
appoint the super~intendents and manag-
Ing officials In every one OF the state In
stitutions; and i would recommend that
this legislature so amend this statute, that
the appointing power shall be fully re-
stored to him.

Nebraska Industrial Home, and lone
for the Friendless.

with a view to aid In the suppression
Of prostitution. the legislature OF 1881 made
provisions for the establishment of the
Nebraska Industrial home. to provide
shelter. protection, employment and
means OF self-support for p~enitent women
and girls. The government was placed
under the supervision OF the
associated charities OF Nebraska and
An appropriation OF $4,000 was made TO
purchase a site and erect buildings. This
institution was located at Milford and
has since been In operation. doubtless ac-
complishing great good In the direction
intended by Its founders.

In some doubt regarding the proprlety Of
the state assuming the financial RESPONSE
blllty ard not having equally the respon-
sibility Cor the government and manage
ment Of them. The Conditions under which
they are now managed and maintained
bring a sense OF responsibility and prima-
ry duty upon the part OF the governing
officers to the associations referred to.
rather than to the state. Heretofore there
has been more or less contention and con-
troversy respecting the authority OF the
state In the management OF them. though
I am pleased to say that for the two
years past the relations have been OF the
most pleasant and amlcable character. 1t
seems to me It Is q sound proposition,
however. that the state she lid have the
complete and absolute control and manage
the officers should be responsible alone to
discharge Of their duties. The institutions
under consideration are OF a peculiar
character, and as the women seem to be
better adapted to know the needs and best
methods OF conducting them. II might be
well to povide for a government by a
board Of women. who should be directly
responsible 10 the state for the manner
In which they discharge their duties. This
plan would serve the purpose and fulfil
the objects sought by their founders. and
yet bring the institutions within the COM
plete control of the state. where. In my
Judgment, they properly belong. II the

for their management and government.
