THE DETERMINATION OF BI

THE DIFFERENTIATION OF BIG GAME
 It is saddening from the point of view of the naturalist, to compare the statements of hunters regarding the game of the world fifty years ago, or even later, with those of the present day. All the great African hunters tell
 the same tale of elephants and buffa-
 loes and lions driven farther and far
 ther north. Selous says the rhinoceros must now be almost extinct in the western half of South Africa. The giraffe is slowly disappearing from certain parts of Africa. Where, some years ago. herds of eighty were no uncommon sight, it is said to be ararity ] now to see herd more than 20 in num- ber Like most other really interesting wild animals, the ant-bear, or aard- vark, is in danger of exteEmination. i This South African animal feeds on the myriads of ants which infest the country, and so has his uses for man. kind. But the Boer farmers find it l more profitable to shoot him, sell his skin for 15 shillings and eat his flesh, which is not unlike pork In flavor.
 | He hbIlS dIOD III AuSlidlld IS SlNtlt | no longer lease of existence than fifty | years. At one time there were millions, | but now, even in isolated spots such as | the remoter parts of Queensland and l the unsettled parts of western Austra- l lia, though they are still to be found, 1 they are by no means numerous. This | remarkable animal owes its fate to it's voracious appetite. When the squattor Y found that each mild marsupial de- voured as much grass as four or five l sheep, he forthwith began to wage relentless war on the species, without | taking any note of it's possible market value, extermnation being his only ob | ject. Now that the kangarooo has be- | come rarity, he is in demand, and his l skin fetches a pound in Melbourne, used, as it is, for the finer kinds Of l book-binding and similar purposes. ] Thus the one despised is worth the price of four or five sheep.

FTNE TO SEE.

The Lord of all is spoken of as being up in Heaven looking down on his hu- man creatures If he was looking down yesterday on those who inhabit this part of His world He saw fine sight. At least it was 8. sight that was fine to the finite eye. Looked down on from above it would have looked to the finite eye like garden filled with all kinds of fiowery and feathery growths We do not remember an Easter Sunday in New Haven which was a better day for clothes or when clothes were more gen. erously and elaborately displayed. If the Lord wasn't worshipped in extra beauty of holiness he was certainly worshipped in extra beauty of clothes. His people looked about right to the finite eye as they sailed in and out of their and His temples, and they acted as if they felt about right. We suppose that the ad-
 monitions and the cancellations of relig- lOll were III SOUlt CdSeS Sll5HlIy TtQuCeu in efficiency by disappointments in
 clothes or too lively appreciation of the
 clothes of others. But nothing of that
 kind was allowed to appear and the spectacle was wholly pleasing and
 stimulating. Brother Carlyle once ask ed what would remain of a gorgeous companyif their splendid clothes should
 suddenly drop from them, and replied, collection of forked radishes. But
 Brother Carlyle was rather cynical and saw some things too clearly. It Is well i for those who can see such sight as l was seen in New Haven yesterday not l to keep their minds on forlzed radishes, but to have faith that the outward
 Easter Sunday beauty of New Haven s brightest and best was an indication of i their inward beauty.

be looked upon as having 0 string to them, But the contribution box can be beaten, and though the London woman failed in her effort to beat it a Kansas woman did the trick with ease. The husband of the Kansas woman in a moment of generosity or alteration put fifty-cent piece in the contribution box when 1t was slid before him. His wife had her eagle eye on him and saw his unauthorized act. Thinking that the contribution was too large for her family to make in these hard and Pop ulistic times she stopped the swift flight of the box with a swifter flight and grasp of her lovely hand, took the fifty cent piece out and put flve-cent piece in it's place. She was so quick and so efficient that no effort was made to pre- vent her She has saved forty-five cents and has put the question of it's recovery on the church. No action has yet been taken against her, but it would be interesting to see what the law would say to her.

 The auroch, or European bison, which in Caesars time, existed In great num- bers throughout central Europe, has now almost disappeared, in spite of the stringent efforts made by the Czars of Russia, since the beginning of the cen tury, for Its protection, and is likely to share the fate of its American relatives. There are a few still living under strict protection in the Caucasus, and a sim ilarly preserved herd in the Lithuanian forest of Bialowicksa, which, in 1856, numbered about one thousand nine hun dred, has now diminished to less than five hundred, and show no signs of in crease. All attempts at domestication of this, the largest existing European quadruped, have failed, and it is ex- pected that fifty years will see it totally eXtinct-Household World.

THE W.iR.

It Is related of a Boston woman who attended a recent Harvard lecture on Greece and the Greeks that she uttered the following winged words: I should think those Greeks would have been ashamed of themselves. Whenever Ulysses got caught and dragged into cave by a Cyclops, he walled and Wrung his hands in agony; and, as for his sailors, at every mishap they took to weeping on one another's necks as though their hearts would break, Think of Nelson and crew of British tars going on in any such ery baby fashion as that! Then the Greek gods Wound one of them with a spear, and straightaway he begins to below with the pain like a bull, till the whole bat tlefeld resounds with his roaring. I despise such men, and their gods worse yet. l don't call such creatures brave.
 We'll, the descendants of the creatures thus pertly and tartly criticised have begun war which looks to most peo- pie like very brave and heroic protest against tyranny and unspeakabla cru city. They are the only people of Europe who seem to be heroic enough to fight the awful Turk, and in com parison with them the British and | their tars don't seem to make a very good showing. How much of a war it will be does not now clearly appear. The general impression is that it will l be short one and that it will be solely between Greece and Turkey. But the | correctness of that impression depends | upon matters that few know anything about It Is possible that the general | European war" which we have so long read about may be at hand but it is not probable. What will happen if Turkey and Greece are let alone by the Powers cannot be told, but of course the chances of ultimate success are with Turkey, which has more resources than little Greece. But David got away with Goliath, and Greece may de- feat Turkey. Greece can raise about | 100000 fighting men and they are said to be uncommonly good fighters. Greece is fighting in good cause and will be cheered by the sympathy and approval of lovers of liberty all over the world
 She may not get much substantial help from other countries, even the most highly-civilized and most liberty-lov- | ing. England must look out for "the concert of the Powers" and a few other things, and of course this country must preserve strict neutrality, just as she does in the fight for liberty which is go- ing on within 15O miles of our southern shore.
 l Heavy fighting is reported in our dis patches from the seat of war, and the news for few days will be exceedingly | interesting and important.

kind, and not, except as an incident in
 that struggle, towards the making of
 money. It was quite late In their history
 that they recognized trading as their
 vocation, and much later still that they
 surrendered the notion that to be a
 trader, whether merchant or manu- facturer or dealer in money, was to be
 comparatively a base person. Till With
 in the last few years all historians
 thought economics rather unworthy
 subjects of their pens and the social
 distinctions drawn against industry
 were of the most galling character In deed, they have not disappeared yet, the contempt which was once felt for
 the merchant and the banker being still entertained for the distributor, though
 he often combines both functions. The
 great industrial is still hardly reckoned
 on par with the greater argriculturist,
 and the shopkeeper of any kind is still
 placed far below any sort of pro- fessional.
 Money 1t is true, is now almost the
 only source of irresponsible power, and those who possess it begin, like the powerful in all countries and ages, to be highly regarded; but the grandson of Tottenham Court Road peer would
 much rather his peerage had been ac- quired in battle, or by chicane, than
 out of shop, however large. Even the captains of industry, who are like the old barons in many respects, are not thought of as quite their equals, and the greatest of railway builders, say the Mir. Brassey, is not placed on the level of a great agriculturist, says the late MT. Coke of Norfolk. The state has | honored both; but the popular senti- ment, which, and not the state, settles what Greeks are like, condones rather than delights in, the action of the state. | The difference Is disappearing; but 1t l dies hard; and Is undoubtedly kept up l by the feeling of the literary class, who have never taken kindly in England, or 1 indeed in any country, to industrial enterprise, have never quite recognized | that it is a struggle like another, and 1 have never in particular seen in it any of the elements of poetry.-London | Spectator.

FASHION NOTES.
Pointers from Easter Millinery.
say to he

Now that almost every woman in the broad land has worn her new spring hat at least one day, there's deal of interest about millinery. To make a beginning with the accompanying pie ture 1t should be said that these new English walking hats are very becom- ing to fresh, youthful faces This one was sketched in bluet straw had an openwork crown and brim, the latter faced With scarlet surah. A band of blue velvet encircled the crown, loops of a scarlet bow lifted from the left side and violets covered the brim at the back Topping piquant face, such a hat is sure to be voted in just the right place.

Thoughtless, impulslve and not thor oughly Christian people sometimes put money in the contribution box and then wish they had it back It Is not often, however, that we hear of any attempt made to get it back. It is well enough for such people to know that even if they should want their money back badly enough to make an open attempt to get 1t back they would probably have their labor for their pains, and a bill of costs in addition. How the law looks on money in the contribution box has been discovered by a dressmaker in London, who recently sued a vicar of a church in that city for the recov- cry of a sovereign which she had placed on the plate at morning service in what she called a fit of mental alteration She had not been to church for two years, but finally attended an early communion service, where she careless ly deposited the piece of money in the contribution box. The judge. however, decided in favor of the church.
 This decision will strike most people as sound, for it will be generally recog- nized that gifts to the Lord should not

Tn the -brimmed hat, whose high crown is narrow to it's suddenly widen ing top. new notion of trimming is shown. At the very edge of this top the straw is slit, and into the space the stems of two or three plumes are inserted. They are secured on the in- ner side of the hat, and fall most grace fully when so held. A handsome bow set on the brim rises against the side of the hat crown, and f1lmy bit of old lace is laid over the slightly rounded edge of the brim, the lace tying at the back with the effect of a veil rolled up off the race over the brim, Such hat possesses the elegance of simplicity good taste and novelty-a rare combin- ation. Many straw hats are shown with the crowns replaced by upstand- ing ones of gauge covered satin. These look little fakey but new hats of this sort are plentiful enough to warrant copying this trick in making over.
 Besides being permitted to wear al- most any kind of 8 hat she likes, a wo- man can now wear her hat pretty much as she chooses. She may wear it tipped over her nose set square and low on her head as man wears his hat, raked well to one side and uplifted on the high side in Spanish fashion by a roll against the hair, or she may have it away back on her head. That's the way the old-time pokes are worn, so that the entire part shows till it is cut off by the big rose under the brin. She may wear it in so many ways that the only statement safely made is that she will wear it on her head, and that she will look bewitching thereby.

The fashion correspondent of a French paper writes from London that "the beautiful mantels and jackets now shown in the shops, looking to the or dinary observer like the finest sealskin, yet marked at exceedingly low prices and labeled electric seal are really rabbitskins." The process of prepara- tion is the following: The rabbits are caught alive, their fur shaved evenly all over, short or close as that of seal, and the animals set free again. This operation is repeated at intervals for a considerable time. Then the rabbit is killed, and its skin dried and treated exactly as sealskin. The result is the shining fur.
