The spread of the british Empire.

This entering of the people into
their heritage has been accompanied
by many striking features. The first
and the most conspicuous has been that
they have entered into the world and
possessed it, In the last sixty years
there have streamed to the uttermost
ends of the world over nine millions
who were born III these islands in the
Northern sea. A population twice as
great as that even of mighty London,
nearly equal to the whole population
of Ireland and Scotland, has taken ship
from these shores for homes in other
lands. More than one-half found shell
ter under the Stars and Stripes. But
wherever they wandered they carried
with them the kindly English speech,
the principles of English liberty, the
respect of the English for law if so it
be by themselves made and determin-
ed And while this vast overflow OF
the surplus of the English cradle has
been streaming southwark and west
ward night and day, sear in and year
out, all these long years the empire
has been Strengthening its stakes and
stretching it's cords to make room for
the new corners.
We have added in this reign to the
empire 275,000 square miles-a terri
tory larger than Australia; in India.
so, 900 square miles-a space as vast as
Great Britain; in the rest of Asia.
200, 900 ssuare miles-a region as large
as Germany; in South Africa and in
West and East Africa, 100000 square
miles-or about half the extent of Eu-
ropean Russia. To-day our posses
sions in North America and in Aus
tralasia cover one-ninth OF the earth s
dry land. The population of Canada
has sprung from one million to near
ly six; of Australia from 175,000 to- A.
500 O000 To-day our flag flies as Queen
of the Seven Seas, and over all that is
best and richest of the non-European
continents.-W. T. Stead in Review OF
Reviews.

In his new lecture ON the House of
Commons, Mr.. Lucy tells how the late
Mr.. Biggar had the Prince of Wales
and select party OF noble lords turn
ed out of the House.
In some way or another" said Mr..
Lucy, Mr. Chaplin had incurred the
displeasure of Mr.. Biggar, and the lat
ter was not long in finding an oppor-
tunity of having his revenge. A few
nights later there was down for dis
sussion business which had reference
to the breeding of horses. Just before
the matter came on for discussion the
Prince of Wales and a following of
peers whose faces were well known at
EPSON and Newmarket entered the
House and took seats.
Mr. Chaplin had not spoken more
ihan half a dozen words when a shri1l
voice was heard calling the Speaker S
attention to the presence of strangers.
For moment the House sat in awful
silence, and then the Speaker, said:
"'Do l understand the honorable
member to persist in his reference to
he presence of strangers? If you
please, SIR replied Mr.. Biggar, with
perfect gravity. There was nothing for
it but to enforce the usual order, and,
amid a freezing silence, the Prince of
Wales, the German Ambassador and
some of the proudest peers of England
were compelled to scuttle. New York

TIE FUR SEAL.
Its Breeding Grounds, Growth, Home Life
and Productiveness.

Its breeding Grounds, Growth, Home Lie
and Productiveness.
The male fur seal, or "beochmaster, !"
reaches full maturity at the age OF
seven years. At that time his weight
is about four hundred pounds, being
considerably heaveier when first ID
from the sea in spring, or after bred
ing in the fall than in the intervening
period, when he fasts on land and
grows gradually lean and weak. The
male vary considerably in color, the
general shade being black or dark
brown, with long hair or bristles OF
yellowish white. These are especially
long and numerous on the thlekened
back of the neck, forming the so-called
wig" The wigged males have a
rough. coarse coat, and their
skins are without market value. The
animal makes its home on the rocky
shores of the islands in large,
closely -massed bands, forming what
are called rookeries. 1t is extremely
gregarious; individuals seldom ventur-
ing far from the main body, while on
land, though wandering about singly
in the sea. The female fur seal is
much smaller than the male, and has
soft, smooth hair of varying shades
shades of brown, under which is the
Dense short, brown fur. The female
bears her first offspring at the age of
three years, but her full growth is not
attained till two or three years later.
The average weight of the grown
female seal is about eighty pounds.
The young or fur seal, called pup,
is born soon after the arrival of the
female It's weight at birth is about
ten pounds The fur seal is poly
gamous, each male capable of holding
a place on breeding grounds having
from one to one hundred females in
his charge, consisting what is known
as a 'harem," the average number
about thirty. But the size of each
family is subject to variation, depend
ing not chiefly on the strength of the
male, but the preference of the female
for a location, and on the ground. The
young male is very similar to the fe-
male in color and appearance. He is
not permitted to enter the rookeries
in breeding season. The old males are
very particular in this regard, and the
bachelors" as they are called, are
forced to herd by themselves on what
is known as the hauling grounds"
located near the breeding grounds, but
distinct from them.

a dress suit lin the afternoon, mind
you) who seemed to be attracting a
good deal of attention. well, said
my neighbor to me, that's the king"
and then l looked more closely and,
true enough, it was Fitz. He looks like
highly respectable hired man, wears
his silk hat on the back of his red,
bullet head and has no more idea how
to wear dress suit than a child Of
tender years. He was alone and
walked up to him.
Mr. Fitzsimmons, l said, I'm a
newspaper man and | should like to be
allowed to shake your hand" He put
out his great paw, which / touched
reverently and then as the foyer was
empty, l asked him: sWill you eyer
fight again? Il don't know" he said,
mot for a while, anyway" l asked
him about the Knockout blow and he
showed me how it was done in about
as clumsy fashion as l ever saw. Then
the bell rang and / thanked him and

sion that it leaves with one is that

ward the eleventh round, and after it,
Fitz seems to be in the fight more.
He hits .Corbett oftener. even though
the blows only make Corbett laugh.
And that laugh is feature of the
whole thing. 1t never leaves Corbett's
face till the end comes. 1t proved, by
its carelessness, that he had no idea
that he would be beaten. He never
looks concerned when Fitz. strikes
him, he smiles, encouragingly, as if to
say, well done, or as a master might
smile on his pupil. 1t is an error to
say that Corbett's blows lacked steam
towards the end They didn't. He is
as active as ever and as full of fight.
When the knockout comes, you don't
expect it. The rounds just preceding
the fourteenth have been swift and the
last one is. The American has fought
his adversary to the very ropes when
suddenly he wavers and places his
hand on his heart. Then he sinks
slowly to his knee and then on all
tours. With a terrible look of agony
he tries to rise but only succeeds in
crawling to the ropes when ten" Is
called and the fight is lost to him. Fitz.
waves his hand to the audience and the
crowd surges into the ring. If there
was a foul blow struck, / couldn't see

The Man You Must Not Marry.

''The most subtle and deceitful hope
which wrecks the happiness Of many q
young girls life," writes Eyangelis!
Dwight L. Moody in the June Ladies
Home Journal, lis the common delu-
sion that woman can best reform @
man by marrying him. 1t is a mys-
terry to me how people can be SO blind
ed to the hundreds of cases in every
community where tottering homes
have fallen and innocent lives have
been wrecked because some young
girl has persisted in marrying scoun-
drel in the hope of saving him. have
never known such a union, and l have
seen hundreds of them, result in any
thing but sadness and disaster. Let no
young girl think that she may be able
to accomplish what a loving mother OF
sympathetic sisters have been unable
to do. Before there is any contract o.
marriage there should be convincing
proof that there has been real ant

CaIifornia,s Flora.

While the flowers of California are
famous for brilliant coloring, it has
been remarked that flowers with frag-
rance are remarkably rare among
them. On the other hand, it is said
that the fragrance that the flowers
should possess has been transferred
to branches and leaves. 1t is believed
that California can present larger lisi
of odor- r-bearing-leayed plants in pro-
portion to the number of species
known than any country in the world

Edison on Air-ships,

Whenever an air-ship is made it
will not be in the form of balloon. It
will be mechanical contrivance,
which will be raised by means of a.
powerful motor, which must be made

one has discovered such motor, but
we never know what will happen. We

hear of some invention which sets us
all eagerly to work within a few hours,

Denver Republican: The collapse
ct the Cripple Creek stock market is
to be accounted for only on the theory
that there is no market for stocks out
side of Colora do, and that this market
has absorbed all it can hold. The
Cripple Greek district is doing well
and some properties give promise Ct
becoming large producing mines in
short time. Yet the stock of such
companies falls along with other
stocks. and discoveries of good ore
bodies seem powerless to cause an ad
vance. If this we're a reflection on
the district it would be occasionsd for
encouragement on the part of Colo
radc people. But the contrary 10 true,
and people interested directly or in
directly in Cripple Creek may rest
assured that it will vindicsts the claim
80 often made in it's behalf. It might
be well to consider in this connection
the fact that it is reported that within
18 months Al Rand stocks on the
stock exchange in London have de-
clined from 9121, 200, 900 to e43,-
100000. This shrinkage in Rand
stock has probably had an effect upon
mining stocks of all description with

merit of those Of any Colorado dis

DANGER IN SODA.
Serious Results Sometimes Follow
Its Excessive Use.

Common soda Is all right in its place
and Indispensable in the kitchen and
for cooking and washing purposes, but
II was never intended for a medicine,
and people who use 1t as such will
some day regret It.
We refer to the common use OF soda
to- relieve heartburn or sour stomach,
a habit which thousands OF people
practice almost daily, and one which is
fraught with danger, moreover the
soda only gives temporary relief and
in the end the stomach trouble gets
worse and worse.
The soda acts as a mechanical irri-
tant to the walls of the stomach and
bowels and cases are on record where

ing death by Inflammation or periton-
