A Chinese Mcpherson.

In New Zealand the Chinaman
abounds, and he has to resort to
strategy to make good his position.
In Otago, where Scotchmen are in
the majority, a contract for mend
ing a road was to be let, and the
most acceptable bid was signed INC
Pherson. Notice was sent to the
said Mcpherson to complete the con-
tract, and, 10, he appeared in all the
glory of yellow hue and pigtaill
"But, gasped the president of the
board, "your name can t be McPher-
SOM" "All lightee," cheerfully an
swered John Chinaman; nobody
catchee contact in Otago unless he
named Nc" The contract was
signed, and the Nongolian McPher-
son did his work as well as if he had
hailed from Glasgow. London and

Our Lady Of the Lanes.

Whenever the London sun touches
the small dusky shops with a jum-
BILE of begrimed color-the old gold
and scarlet of hanging meat, the
metallic green of mature cabbages,
the wayering russell of piled pota-
toes, the sharp white of fybills
pasted all awry-then the moment
to see her is come. You will find
her bareheaded and tangled, her
dingy peaked shawl hanging down
her back and in front the bellying
expanse of her soiled apron, block
ing the pavement, established by
her own corner OF the lane, all lit
tered with the cries of children, and
the fitful throbbing of the asphalt
beneath the hollow hammering of
hoofs.
She carries always baby by her
breast. Her bare forearms are as
bulky as a mans. In her eyes is a
forward scowl, and when she laughs
it is with harsh, strident gayety.
But she never fails to wear her
squalid portliness with robust and
defiant dignity that makes her fig
ure definitely symbolic of Cockney
maternity. - Herbert Crackan-
thOrna

Must Pay Your License.

Under tribal management the
taxes due by non-citizens for doing
business in the Indian Territory
has been somewhat matter of
chance and favoritism. The In
dian agent tried to collect all the
taxes due by that class, but as he
did not have the authority or the
money at hand to put suitable col
lectors in the field to hunt up those
who were not paying, many es-
capped. Of course, all who would
respond to the agents call were
readily accounted for and turned
in their fees, but there was not
inconsiderable class who would
not respond or who entered busi-
ness and went ou: again before the
agent could reach them.
1t has reached Phoenix that the
department has appointed special
inspectors for each nation (three
or four to each nation) whose busi-
ness it will be to look up every
person subject to any tax and re-
port to the Indian Office the
data on which to work. The in
spectors will not be allowed to col.
lect taxes or licenses, but will
thoroughly canvass the field for
any who are not on the tax roll
and fortunate will be the man who
is escaped in the search.
Under the law the Indian agent
has the power to remove the per-
son from the territory who will
not pay the taxes and there is
every probability that all will pay
alike from this time forward

THE WHEAT SITUATION.

The official admission that RuSsIa's
wheat crop will be much shorter than
the average yield of recent years is
the most interesting development in
the wheat situation which has come
to light in the past two or three
weeks. Russia is one of the largest
wheat producers in Europe. Not
withstanding the vast population of
that country, too. it usually has con-
siderable of the grain to export This
year it will not only have none to ex-
port. but it will have to look abroad
for some to supply home needs. Thus
the quantity available for the worlds
consumption will be diminished, and
the demand on the United States will
be increased.
Happily, the United States crop
this year, though much below that of
1898, will be above the average. The
staListician of the New York Produce
Exchange figures, on the basis of the
governments recent estimates of the
condition of the crop, that the United
States wheat yield in 1899 will be
56S, 000, 900 bushels. The crop in 1898,
Wucl1 IL hcHU lar dDONc dll DTtNi-
Gus figures, was 675, OO0, 900 bushels.
But it was only go, ZOO, 900 iii 1897,
and 427, 100000 in 1896. Except in
1898 the only time in the conntry'S
history in which the wheat crop went
above the yield promised in 1899 was
in 1891. when the production was 6I2,-
100000 bushels.
Il should be borne in mind, also,
that the estimates of the American
wheat crop which are made at the
present time are likely to be reliable.
The figures, indeed, based on the con-
dition as outlined by the government,
are apt to be below the mark, as past
experience shows. The country, there
fore, is in fair way to profit by the
increased demand for wheat which
the diminised supply abroad will
cause. The present crop in this coun-
try is supplemented by stock of 1OO,-
600, 900 bushels or more, which is left
over from last years crop, when Eu-
rope as well as Asia had prolific
yield This will serve to keep up the
favorable trade balance, which is fall
ing below last years big proportions.
1t will also insure the American con-
sumner an abundance of food at rea-
sonable prices. Louis Globe-Dem-
Ocrat.
