A MUCH-MoURNED MOTHER.

When Shafter was senior colonel of the

whose cleverness was continually getting
him the noncommission stripes, and whose

soldier turned up at Skaters quarters with
a long face and applied for leave to attend
the funeral of his mo.ler, who had died the
previous night, he said, in the town. The
1equest was granted, but later on, in looking
over the same records, the colonel discov-
cred that the same man had been granted
leave the month before on the identical pre-
text. Shafter said ne ching, but a couple
of days afterward encountered the bereaved
warrior on the parade ground. Look here,

THE YEARS IMMIGRATION.
Annual Report to the Secretary of the
Treasury of Com misslOner- GEN
eraI II. v. PowderIy.

| Washington, Nov. 12.--Commission-
cr-General t. V. Powderly of the I'M
migration bureau, in his annual re-
port to the secretary of the treasury,
| gives the total number of immigrants
who arrived in the United States dur
| ing the last fiscal year as 229, 229, de-
crease, as compared with the fiscal
ear of 1897, of 1883. OF the whole
number 1879 were males and 1884
| females. Ten thousand seven hundred
{ nd thirty-seven came into the United
States through Canada.
Immigrants who Wore Debarred.
During the year 5000 were debarred,
and of this number there were II in
sane, one idiot, 2,261 paupers or per-
sons likely to become a public charge,
25s diseased persons, 2 convicts, 70
assisted emigrants and All contract
laborers. One hundred and ninety
nine were returned within one year
after landing.
IIlIteracy,
OF the whole number, over IA years
Of age, 1,416 could not write; 43,057
could neither read nor write; 1908
over 20 years of age had $50 of over,
ard 96,2O3 had less than $50. The to-
tai amount of money shown by immi-
grants during the year was $3,872,077,
but the actual amount brought over
was probably greatly in excess of this
amount.
Nativity.
Of the whole number of arrivals S.
e13 came from Italy, 27,221 from Rus
S;a proper, 25, 12S from Ireland, H.
Ill from Germany, 1869 from Hun
gary, 1920 from Galicia and Burko-
wilma in Austria-Hungary, 12,398 from
Sweden and 9,9SS from England.
Occupation.
OF the total number of steerage pas
sengers arrived during the year 81
were actors, 50 artists, 153 clergymen,
~ editors, 43 engravers, 81 lawyers,
223 musicians, 81 physicians, 136 sculp-
tors, 2S8 teachers, A accountants, l.
400 bakers, 1882 BARRIERS, 1852 black
smiths, $50 brewers, 1,O74 butchers, q
904 carpenters and joiners, 7O6 dress
makers, 1855 mariners, 1871 masons,
1,604 miners, TAI painters, 972 seam
stresses, 1929 shOemakers, 1895 tail
Ors, LISP weavers, bankers, S36
cooks, 16,243 farmers, 1,lSS grocers,
1881 laborers, 4,429 merchants and
1856 servants. These figures, how
ever, the report states, are not to be
relied upon as indicating the pursuit
they will follow in this country, it is
evident, for it is reasonably certain
that many of the new arrivals did not
engage in farming, and it is equally
certain that more than 1904 miners
found their way to the coal regions.
Improvement In Class OF ImmIgrants.
The total arrivals of male immi-
grants during the present fiscal year
aIc slightly in excess of those for the
year before it, and the report assumes
more desirable class, since those
from European countries show an in
crease of 6,73O, while those from other
sources, principally Asiat;c, exhibit
decrease of 1850.

One of the first to offer their services for the

sides. Our rations were very scarce" said
he, "and we had begun to go on quarter
allowance, and as the rain was not enough

go down on our hands and knees and drink

pronounced it incurable. Science has proven
catarrh to be a constitutional disease, and
therefore requires constitutional treatment.
