Canals of the World.

The Suez Canal is about 100 miles in
length, and cost s1000000 per mile for
its construction. The Corinth Canal
is miles in length, and cost, COM
pleted, with its approaches, $1,000,000
per mile. The proposed Nicaragua
canal will cost per mile, with its ter
minals and approaches, certainly not
less, and probably more than the sum
named. The canals of SueZ and Cor
inth are real maritime canals, built
without locks, upon the sea-level. The
one, that Of Corinth, is situated in the
temperate zone, where the rainfall is
81 or 40 inches per annum. The other,
that of Suez, is located in region
without rain. Neither of these is
threatened in it's course by streams
liable to sudden and perilous floods,
so common in the tropical religion Of
Central America. These two great
works afford no real parallel to the
Nicaragua project, either as to cost
or feasibility. The one work parallel
to this undertaking is very near, very
like it, both in place and circumstance;
it Is that of the Panama Canal across
the Isthmus of Darien,

why Beef Was Cheap in Texas.


The civil war that ragged in our land
a third of century ago operated in a
Numerically opposite manner on the
two sections of the United States
known as the Southwestern and the
Northwestern States. In the former,
composed chiefly of the State of Tex
as, all access to outside markets was
cut off to live stock. The Union
forces patrolled with gunboats the
Mississippi River, and no herds could
be taken across to feed the main rebel
armies; cattle could not be shipped to
Cuba for fear of almost certain cap
ture by war vessels on the Gulf pas
sages, and they could not be safely
driven north or west.
So Texas's 100000 cattle multiplied
like vermin in an army camp, upon the
ranges of Texas, where they ceased to
have q cash value and became only an
article of barter, seventy-five head be-
ing exchanged for good saddle horse
and 100 head for a two-horse wagon
The stores in the grazing regions eX-
changed goods and wares for them,
fixing a ridiculously low scale of prices
for the live stock, payable in goods,
&C., from the store. This state of af-
fairs continued until two years after
the war closed.
In the Northwest the supply Of live
stock was depleted to feed the Union
armies, and for two or three years af-
ter the close Of the war remained
scarce and dear in price, so that the
masses of laboring men and factory
operatives could scarce afford beef up
on their tables oftener than once a
week, and then it was of the cheaper
cuts of the carcass.

Are any Chinese women's feet un-

of foreigners? Yes; but no more than
European ladies are they going to walk

important. numbers upon numbers of
little girls are remaining unbound in

we know are untouched by Christian

Deal of Inte rest In the Matter.
Postmaster Gary is taking a
great deal of interest in the matter of
the extension of free mail delivery in
the rural districts. The Department
was given $4,000 with which to make
experiments in this line during the
present fiscal year, and those already
tried have proved very successful.
In Great Britain the free delivery Of
letters was begun about fifty years ago.
All mails are delivered at the offices
of the addresses without extra charge,
the rural postmen making daily walk
of from fifteen to eighteen miles, and
receiving a compensation Of 18 shil-
lings, or about $3.50 per week. PEN
sions are granted in case of permanent
incapacity after ten years of active
duty. Rural pests are believed to be
self-supporting.
In 1880 rural delivery was establish
ed in France. Even the most outly
least one free delivery per day. The
postmen have a right to retire on
pension after serving fifteen years and
reaching the age of IS. Eight hours is
the maximum time Of employment.
In the German Empire small
charge of from 10 to 20 pfennings e.
to 4 cents). according to weight, Is
made for the delivery of mails in the
rural districts. The hours of service
of foot carriers are from eight to nine
daily.
In Austro-Hungary a small extra
charge, ranging from 1a cent to IA
cents, is made for delivering letters
and small packages in the rural dis
tricts. The service is not self-support-
ing.
Rural free delivery prevails all over
Belgium, the pay of the carriers be-
ing graded according to the cost of the
living in the localities where they
serve. Their average trips are sixteen
or eighteen miles daily. Participation
in political campaigns is forbidden,
and their tenure is secure during good
behavior. After certain term of SER
vice they are entitled to a pension.
In Switzerland, the home of the
Universal Postal Union, there is at
least one free delivery a day in every
hamlet. The system has been in
operation since 1S4S.

THE LIVING CHURCH
ALONE WITH GOD.

AS Moses climbed the mountain peak,
That he alone with God might speak,
I, too, with God do often seek
To be alone.
And though may not find the place
Where Moses stood, nor lead race, !.
God gives me shining face
His grace I own.
Each morning brings me some new
care;
To God go in secret prayer
And ask for strength to help me bear
My weight of woe.
He waits for me. l know that
Shall find Him there when l draw nigh
To talk with Him. We can rely
On Him know.
Alone with God? Yea, let me spend
A moment with my God and Friend,
That from His mount may descend
With power divine.
How great the privilege to be
Sometime with Him who made the sea
And earth and sky. Eternity
With Him is mine.

Prices of Land Boom Wherever Ex-Prest.
dent Cleveland Resides.
Grover Cleveland is mascot for real
estate boomers. He has made money
in large sums for landholders in three
widely separated parts Of the country.
When he was married, ten years ago,
during his first term, Mr.. Cleveland
bought for S21,500 place of twenty
eight acres in the suburbs of Washing
ton. Until that purchase the sight
illness of the locality had not been
small farms and there were few Wash
ington people who had homes along
the questionable pike. The President
made some alterations in the COM
Portable old stone house and lived
there in the summer time. When he
went out of Office, after two or three
seasons occupancy of "Red Top" as
the place was called, from the brightly
painted roof, he sold his twenty-eight
acres for $135,000. But previously
thousands of acres surrounding had
changed hands. Cleveland Heights
had been laid out, an electric road had
been built and all of the accessories OF
real estate speculation on grand
scale had been applied.
Mr.. Cleveland's next venture was In
a desolate tract of land on Buzzard's
Bay. He went there on the recon-
mendation of Joseph Jefferson, found
good fishing and bought literally OF
the rocky and sandy acres. The his
tory of Red Top repeated itself, save
that Mr.. Cleveland did not sell when
the boom came. Buzzard's Bay has
come into prominence as one of the
choicest localities on the Atlantic coast
for summer homes The land has gone
up and up until the advances parallel
those Of the first neighborhood to
which Mr.. Cleveland lent his name.
And now the news is that Princeton
acres, and especially that part in
which the ex-President has invested,
are soaring in values.
