EXCHANGE CLIPPINGS.

Wadsworth, an old Cleveland pro-

although he was the mainstay for three
seasons.-Plain Dealer.
If any proof were wanted of the ben
eft of good roads, it comes from Mass
achusetts, where it is computed that
property in the immediate vicinity of
improved roads has improved to the
extent of six dollars an acre. This is
clear gain to the land owner, the cost
of the roads being money saved many
times over in reduced cost of travelling
over them.-Journal Of Agriculture.
An exchange says to fit out a pupil
for graduation in bon ton style costs
about $50, but it is doubtful if the sue

simultaneously with the conclusion
of England's magnificent jubilee in
honor of Queen Victoria of England
and Empress of all the Indias, comes
the news of famine and of starving
thousands among her most helpless
subjects.
The special commissioners OF the
Cosmopolitan magazine, sent by that
periodical to investigate the matter,
report state of famine and destitution
in certain provinces of India, that will
be CONDEMNED by the future impartial
historian of Queen Victoria's reign, as
the most inexcusable neglect of the
nineteenth century, 1t is conserva-
lively estimated that $100,000,000 were
probably spent for gilt and tinsel,
glitter and pretense, during the few
days of this goddess exhibition, in the
great modern Babylon, London. While
this elegant jamboree was in full swing,
100000 humble subjects of that gra-
cious ? lady were wailing to her from
India: Gracious little mistress we are
dying of starvation.
The hearts of the humane grow
palsied at the thought of it. The mo-
ment is too grave, too stern for tears or
excuset. 1t is foul blot, black, re-
proachful stain upon the escutcheon
of a glorified Queen and mo ther.
The odium of this rests upon
England. That cannot be denied.
The very great tinanciers and
merchant kings among the Queens
subjects, are the real authors of this
famine. The prodigal largesse, with
which these sleek, wellbred, legalized
chevaliers d. IndAstyie showered the ju-
bilee route of Victoria, was filched

A few unscrupulous individuals who
care nothing for progress, lately issued
a Road to Ruin" scare circular
against the projected electric railway
between Elyria, Oberlin and yelling
ton. The enterprise has been held up
as forerunner of disaster and failure,
increased taxation and various other
evils, sure to become epidemic if the
roads are built and operated. Now,
this is all nonsense. No sane per-
son will believe such utter bosh. The
ellows who start the slogan OF
ruin against any projec ted improve
ment, ever are selfish, unpatriotic
leeches upon the community accursed
with their presence, They will be
! foiled in this malicious attempt to re-
tard the well-being of their neighbors.
Elyria has three steam railways and
two electric roads; result, lively
town, up to date, new buildings for
stores and factories, increased popula-
tion and general prosperity to her
working citizens. Oberlin has one
steam railway and no electric road ;
result, the town is twenty years be-
hind the times, and the majority of the
citizens want to get out of that town of
innocuous desuetude.

The Minnesota Forestry association
proposes to begin at once a movement
for the preservation of the forest of
that state. The keen sighted people
of that progressive state seem to real
ize now the fact which will dawn on
others later that the multiplying pop
ulation and the expansion of the agri-
cultural area will sooner or later tax
the forest resources of all sections OF
the country, and these Minnesota men
propose wisely to make hay while the
sun shines. In other words, while the
waste of timber is going on elsewhere
these thrifty folk are preparing not
only to husband what they have, but
TO aid nature in providing more.

new trial considerable stress was

he was in the habit of closing his eyes,

an hour at a time. "The man was not
asleep" he said.
