@be Surplus R6puIati0p of ReO
 Mining Camps.

In nearly every new mining district
 in the west there is greater surplus ot unemployed men than in the older camps.
 As a general rule, there is less demand
 for labor in these new districts for some time after their discovery, and until cap ital comes in in sufficient quantity to develop them. A skilled prospector needs little advice as to where he should 20: be has means of finding out and knows we'll how to take care of himself under the most adverse circumstances. This may be said of most miners ot long experience but the men who make up the large surplus of the unnecessary pop ulation in the new mining camps are nearly all men of smaller experience, and, to certain extent, useless. Hun dreds of men have gone to the Bands
 burg district who have no knowledge of mining, put imagine that they can find something to do So it is with the camps m British Columbia: so it is with Alaska. Warnings are continually sounded through the local papers published ir all those districts to people to stay away. Probably the best advice that could be given to those who earnestly desire to learn something of mining is to choose the older camps, for in these there are more opportunities for unskIlled miners than in the new districts, where men are compelled to depend so much more upon their own resources M.

This seems to be pretty good year for freak legislation. In the budding state of Oklahoma bill has been intro duced in the legislature to abolish Wall Street. This will TO doubt cause wide. spread consternation in that financial center. The Minnesota legislature has under consideration a law compelling saloon keepers to hang out a red light every night with the word Changer" on it. That wouldn't be such bad scheme after all. The New York legislature has passed an act making it crime for a newspaper to publish persons portrait without his consent. That is certainly regulating the "new journalism" with a vengeance. In Indiana and Missouri the abolition of football games was grave. ly debated by the legislatures. And Kan. sas, of course, is we'll at the front in this possession. Governor Leedy during the campaign expressed a strong desire to "blow blood in the ears of capitalists, 1" and he expected the legislature to enact a few laws that would help him do it. In this he seems to have been disap. pointed, but bills were introduced pro. hibiting bloomers and corsets, and one enterprising statesman wanted the Ter Commandments enacted into law. What provisions he proposed to make for theil enforcement is not stated. The crying need of Kansas and good many othel states is not more law, but more com mon sense.-Press & Horticulturist.

4 Farm Colony fOr Chicago.

G9n Booths plan of returning the surplus oi city populations to the country by farm colonies, which has been in suc- cessful operation in England tor several years and has also been put in operation near Boston and New York, is to be tried in this city under the auspices Of Commander Booth, Tucker. The Gage farm at Riverside, the largest piece ot land the city owns, has been secured for the experiment.
 Perhaps tine most hopeful indication in connection win the problem Of deal ing with the unemployed IS to be found in these efforts toward utilization of op- portunlties and means that have here tofore been neglected as too small and unimportant to be considered. There IS something inspiring in considering large plans of benevolence which look toward the abolishing of poverty and redresslng the evils of the social organization which result in poverty aud destitution.
 The Salvation Army is to be commend ed TOT taking up thus method ot relief in a practicable way, and thus demonstrat- ing, on & small scale, the advisabillty of further progress in the same direction. This has been done on the farm of 1000 acres near London, the success of which enterprise is standing refutation of those inclined to ridicule such methods of remedying evils that result from our present social system-Chicago Record.

The extension of territory and the for ward movement of the people will soon come to an end. In fact the end already is ID sight, and the tide of population IS setting back upon the older states l'ke the backw ater of flood. A new century and new conditions confront us. The call is for those who teel deeply and think broadly, to guide our destinies as we stretch forward to the unknown.
 Now territory alone is insufficient for the continued greatness of any country. A concrete example IS China with vast area and teemIng millions; all holding together like a pile of brick, simply by reason of weight and not because of any actual union between them. Wealth al so is no guarantee; for if so why are we called on to record the almost complete decay of Spain, though wealthy beyond hearts desire two centuries ago. The Hindoo princes, puppets in power, sW addled in the lap ot wealth and sur rounded by the nasnlng glorles or gems illustrate again the foolishness of resting on wealth for perpetuity. Territory is nothing without national character. Wealth is as much. Furthermore, they that have relied upon the sword have perished by it. Alexander, the Great, made no permanent enlargement oi Grecian territory; the Hebrews under David gained the full limits of their ter. ritory and enjoyed it only during one reign; the Roman Empire crumbled from mere weight as soon as unselfish devotion was withdrawn. Any widely read reader can multiply confirmations Exchange.

A singular story has been reported by the physicians of McPherson county, Kansas. Living in the northeast part of Reno county is German farmer, Adram Kroeger. He sold his wheat some time ago to the Buhler mill, and it became necessary to have it delivered, even though the roads were heavy and muddy. In taking the wheat to mill Kroeger was in the habit of eating wheat. He was continually picking up a mouthfull. He was taken sick few days ago, and his ailment baffled the doctors. Kroeger grew worse. The doctors being unable to diagnose the case and fearing death if no relief was given, an operation was determined upon. Yesterday it was per. formed, and over a quart of sprouteG wheat was taken from the old German Some of the sprouts were two inches long Kroeker is in bad shape, and it is doubt full if he will recover from the operation .-Exchange.

For the past two months our better half and baby have been visiting rela- lives. and we have been keeping house" Tn our two months practice and study we have discovered that women uselessly wear Themselves out keeping house. We find iBa our experience that many dollars can be saved by iudicious manage meut, To sweep a carpet oftener than once a month is wearing on the car pet and disturbe one's rest too frequent ly, To sleep in 8 bed for two or three weeks without disturbing it makes it conform to the natural position of the body and sleep more restful. Food is just as nutritious and wholesome when eaten from the same dishes several times as when half hour IS spent in washing them after each meal. We find it saves time to kick our old papers under the bed instead of spending twenty minutes folding them up and putting them in the paper rack. It saves fuel and coal oil to spend our evenings down town with the boys. We could go on and enumer- ate many economical and time saving features Tn housekeeping, but will save our new found theories on practical housework for our wife when she returns Exchange.

The ingenious Frenchman who in- vented the process of photographing ln colors, which has been attracting the attention of scIentsts of late, has given Treasury Department of the United States and the treasury departments of all other countries employing paper cur rency as part of their circulating medium, a feeling of insecurity. It is recognized by the watchdogs of the treasuries of the world that if this invention gets into the hands of counterfeit CTS, the financial sys- tenn of every nation employing notes is threatened.
 A l.. Drummond, for years chief of the United States treasury secret service, said: "If this new invention can pho tograph the red seals, the check nun bers in blue and other colors employed in engraving bank notes, it would put in the hands of interruptions persons the most dangerous weapon that ever men aced the safety of the worlds currency. The color photography opens immense possibilities in the hands of clever men. With government paper of similar qual- ity, there is nothing to prevent skillful operator from producing absolute dupli- cates Tn such numbers as he might de sire of any bank note extant in the clrcu lation of the world. I understand our Treasury Department is investigating the possibilities of the ne v process. .'-Ex

An unusual incident recently occurred In the timber near Fossil, Or. Beaber and French sawed through tree meas uring 13 feet in circumference, and though they sawed until the teeth of the saw came through on the opposite side; though the tree top was free from all support; though they pried and chopped and wondered and talked, still that tree stood there, and still the saw remained pinched in so tighly that it could not be moved. At last they were obliged to go home, leaving the tree standing on it's stump. Next day the tree was down. It had apparently sprung or slid from the stump, striking perpendicularly in the sandy soil at first, making hole 5 feet deep and as far across M. & s Press.

Newsboys are not allowed to cry any thing but the names of the papers they have for sale. This regulation was made necessary by the wilful misrepresenta- tions made by the boys 10 sell their pa pers They would announce the most startling events in order to dispose of any surplus stock, and the eager purchaser would not find d word in the paper con- corning the sensation so loudly pro- claimed by the thrifty newsboy. Prom inent persons walking down the street would be surprised to hear ther names called out in connection with some crime or arrest with which they had nothing to do, or which never occurred. The abuse became so great that it was found necessary to limit paper sellers to the sole announcement of the names of the papers offered. -Modern Mexico.

Preparations of the Deryishes.

1t is known that after the disasters at
Dongola, the Baggarahs, disheartened,
suggested q retreat into their own ter
ritory of Khordofan, and that the Khal-
fla had to use both threats and entreat-
been his stanchest supporters. At a
great public durbar, he told them they
had lived in and on the Soudan these
many years past, and that they must be
prepared now to die there. A leader
who has recourse to such arguments
cannot be deemed perfectly secure. Not
that the disappearance of the Khalifa
position. His brother is said to be a
man of spirit and authority, and there
are other lesser leaders, no doubt, whom
danger and emergency would bring to
the front Moreover, very positive in
formations has reached the Egyptian IN
telligence Department, so ably conduct
ed by Colonel Wingate and Slatin Pasha,
that the Dervishes are once more full of
fight and resoluteiy determined to make
better head against the next attack.
1t is fact that there has as yet been
no true test of their quality Dongola
was undoubtedly surprise, and it's sue
cess, as we know, mainly attributable in
the fire of our gunboats. The enemy
have learned their lesson now, and do
not mean to be again shelled out of their
positions from the river. They have
constructed strong earthworks, proba-
bly, as a last citadel and stronghold and

these have been placed at distance of
some two or three miles from the Nile,
the question of water having been met
by sinking wells within their entrench-
ments In spite of the reports that On
durham Khartum has been evacuated,
reports based probably upon this posi-
ton of the new works above mentioned,
it cannot be taken as certain that they
will be contented with purely defen-
sive attitude. The latest advices, when
/ left the frontier were to the effect that
a considerable force of good fighting men
have come down the river as far as
Berber, $4,000 in number, and that Abu
Hamed has been largely reinforced. At
the same time there is increased activity
in the Bayuda desert; raiding parties
have appeared in front of our advanced
posts at Merawi, Debbeh, and Korti;
while the west bank of the river oppo-
site Dongola, and some distance below
it, is open to Dervish incursions
Whether or not the enemy means seri-
Gus mischief, all the points held by the
Egyptian troops along this exposed
front are being covered by entrench-
ments, and a new Dongola is rising on
the site of the older town, surrounded
by walls and Notifications. These are
the wise precautions that a prudent
commander, such as Sir Herbert Kitch-
ener has already proved himself, will
naturally take while awaiting the full
ness of time for resuming the offensive.

How Nails Are Named.

Two accounts are given of the origin
of the terms "six-penny," ''eight-pen-
ny, 'ten-penny," and SO on, as applied
to the various sizes of nails. According
to one statement. when nails We're
made by hand, the penny was taken as
a standard of weight, and six We're
made to equal the weight of a copper
penny. This explanation is open to
criticism on account of the very small
size Of the nails of which six were need
ed TO balance even the large sized. old
fashioned copper penny. The other is
much more probable. It affirms that
six were sold for penny, and the name
grew into use, even when the price
changed, and the larger kinds were,
from a popular mistake called ten
penny and SO on, without regard to size
or weight. OF the ordinary six-penny
nails. there are eighty to the pound; of
the eight-penny. there are fifty: ten
penny, thirty -four; twelve-penny thir-
ty-nine.-St. Louis Globe Democrat.
