Cyclists Discarsting Borsets.

1t Is said that Partisan female cyclists
are doing away to a great extent with
the corset. This, however, is only in
measure true, and is based on the fact
that the ordinary long corset is being
discarded In favor Of shorter STAY
somewhat like the riding stay. in
TACT. adopted by horsewomen. There
Is little doubt, though. that cycling da.
serves the merit Of having caused the
disappearance of tight lacing in MANY
quarters.

sane for all the ends required inthe adj

plea of insanity in capital trials is In
most cases false plea. Strong as may
be our sympathy with the struggling
patriots of Cuba, we can have no SYM

sassin who commits murder in the
name and under the plea of patriotism.
1t is to be feared that this awful crime
has set back the cause of Cuban eman-

A citizen of New Brunswick, n. J.,
has suggested the establishment of a
penal colony in Alaska sort Of Amer
lean Siberia, founded, however, on hui
manitarian principles. He would send
all Federal prisoners to the mining re-
gions there to dig for gold, the Govern
ment operating the mines systematical-
ly by prison labor. His plan contem-
plates that the miners should receive
regular mining wages, the proceeds to
be used, first, in payment Of the cost Of
transportation and their support; Sec
ond, in paying for the support of their
families-the remainder to constitute
fund by which, on the expiration OF
their terms Of imprisonment, they
might be placed in possession Of means
to begin life anew, with a prospect of
becoming self-supporting and respected
citizens. While it might be gratifying
to the people Of the States to be re-
lieved Of the presence Of so many of the
criminal classes, there are several facts
teal success of the scheme. One of
these is the cost of guarding a large
body of prisoners so far from the base
Of supplies in order to prevent their es-
cape and make their labor available for
a few months in the year, while pre-
venting them from secreting the gold
which they might gather. Another is
the short period during which their la
Dor could be employed, while the Gov
eminent would be compelled to furnish
them shelter and subsistence during
the long arctic winters at heavy ex-
pense. However practicable such a
scheme might be under the Russian
system, it would be utterly impractical
BILE in accordance with the sentiments
and tastes Of the American people, who
have always been opposed to placing
stigma upon any section Of the coun-
try, making it the home Of criminals
exclusively, after the manner Of Botany
Bay, under British rule, some forty to
fifty years ago.

The unfortunate coal miners are not
the only people in this country who are
reduced to desperate straits. In New
York City one day last week a brother

latter died before help could be had for
her. On the same day man was pick

death that his stomach would not re-

The Pennsylvania law imposing tax
OF 3 cents day upon all alien labor
ers in the State has stirred up the Chi
nese, who cannot evade it by becoming
citizens, and money is being raised to
test the law in the courts. 1t is believ-
ed the statute will be knocked out; but
In the meantime it has led to the nat
uralization of many foreigners who are
no credit to the citizenship Of Pennsyl-
yania, because they became citizens
only to avoid the tax, and not because
they are loyal to the Government.

THE CENTRE OF OUR POPULATION.

THE GENTLE OF OUKFOPULATlON.
The centre OF population is the
centre of gravity Of the inhabi'
tants of the country. If the
United States were considered as
a plane, with all its people as of
equal weight, the centre Of pop
ulation would be the point where
the whole plane might be bal
anced and remain steady through
equilibrium. It expresses the
net resultant of the movements of
population from decade to decade.
This point, according to the cen.
sus of 1890, is located at 1899 11.y
