They will visit the tribes of Indians
in the northwest corner of North
America, live among them for a sea-
son, study their modes of life, make
collection of their implements and
dig into their mounds for skeletons.
At least ten tribes will be. inspected
for proofs that the American Indians
are descended from tribes that found
their way to this continent over the
marrow Behring Strait. It is an easy
way to account for the first natives of
the New World.

THE nEssAGH.

The Presidents message on Cuban
affairs was sent to Congress on Mon
day. Intervention without recogni-
ton of the Cuban government was
recommended. Recognition will fol-
low later.
President Mckinley has shown his
ability in craftsmanship, and he now
places the responsibility on Congress,
where it properly belongs. when dip
lolnacy is exhausted by the executive.
The destruction of the Maine is
referred to, and it is shown that Spain
is not able to guarantee to the United
States and other nations that security
to their vessels which they have
right to demand. PREPARATION for the
Maine outrage and murder will come
and be demanded in the settlement
with Spain.
President Mckinley says: "In the
name of humanity, in the name of
civilization, in behalf of endangered
American interests, which give us the
right and duty to speak and to act,
the war in Cuba must stop. In view
of these facts and these considera
tons, I ask the Congress to authorize
and empower the President to take
measures to secure q full and final
termination of hostilities between the
government of Spain and the people
of Cuba, and to secure in the island
the establishment of stable govern
ment capable of maintaining order
and observing its international char
acter, insuring peace and tranquility |
and the security of it's citizens as we'll
as our own, and to use the military
and naval forces of the United States
as may be necessary for these purpo
SEES. And in the interest of humani-
ty, and to aid in preserving the lives
of the starving people of the island,
I recommend that the distribution of
food and supplies be continued and
that an appropriation be made out of
the public treasury to supplement the
charity of our citizens"
The message concludes with this
patriotic utterance:
1.-THE issue is now with Congress.
It is solemn responsibility. have
exhausted every effort to relieve the
condition of affairs which
is at our doors. Prepared to execute
every obligation imposed upon me by
the constitution and the law, I await
your action"

A Horseman Thinks Now is the
Time to Stock Up.
c. c. Acker of Annelly, a promi-
nent breeder of French draft horses,
in talking about the breeding of hor-
ses by farmers said:
cit is my opinion that this is a
good time for farmers to begin breed
ing good horses. Best of all he
should breed heavy draft horses. He
should be careful to breed only to
the best horses. A plug horse is
worthless.
"The low prices paid for horses the
past few years have greatly reduced
the number in the country, and have
induced buyers to ship oil available
horses, to foreign countries until now
there are but few good horses on the
market.
During last year there were shipped
out of this country 1882 head of
horses. Since that time the prices
of horses in general advanced ten
per cent, while those of heavy draft
horses advanced twenty-five per cent.
ga farmer cannot do better than to
begin to breed his mares. Prices are
bound to 60 higher yet. Good
draft stations are the best to breed
to, for heavy horses are the ones that
will be most in demand, and will
bring the best prices"

a majority Of the court concur in holding
that the plaintiff is eatitled to judgment,

deemed advisable to discuss them in a
formal opinion. Judgment will be en-

cold Mining In Liberia.

From the London Daily Mall
our correspondent at, Odessa sends some
notes of a conversation with a veteran 81
berian gold-digger of great wealth from
Tomsk. the chief center of the gold-pro-
duclng district.
He predicts a great future for gold min
ing in Siberia, as he AYERS the surface has
so far only been scratched. Prospecting
has increased with such remarkable
rapidlty that towns are springing up like
mushrooms and the population is increas-
ing by leaps and bounds.
The government stipulates that all gold
gathered be assayed at its offices, placed
at convenient centers, and that 10 per
cent. of the net proceeds go TO the crown,
but otherwise every one, including for
eigners, has absolute freedom to work
his claim just as 1t pleases him.
Up to the present only very primitive
methods have been employed by the ma
jorlty of prospector but now, thanks TO
the energetic action and laudable enter
prise OF the Russian government, new
gold mining era has begun.
In South Siberia, my informant told me,
gold digging is carried on under most
favorable conditions The climate, as
compared with the northern provinces, IS
mild and operations may be pursued all
the year around.
The Khirghese, who roam about on the
boundless steppes there, living in tents ana
subslsting on the most scanty fare, make
first-class workmen. They are content
with very small pay, often not more than
Cd per dayl
On the other hand in Northern Siberia
the requirements of the work people are
infinitely greater. In extreme northern
ATTITUDES it is customary TO light big bon
fires and thaw the ground in the winter
The work is very laborious with the anti
quated implements at the disposal OF the
miners. 1t is only when spring comes
round that the great heaps OF earth which
have accumulated during the winters
operations are washed and the precious
metal extracted
Foreigners" said my friend "as a rule
succeed better than the Russians. because
they bring technical knowledge TO bear
upon their work, whereas the Russian ia
ignorant of the most elementary principles
of gold mining, and is at greata disad-
vantage compared with the Belgians and
Germans there, who do their work svs-
| tematically and thoroughly, and invaria-
bly, with the most encouraging results"
