court says further: In all respects the
statute is in accordance With the laws
regulating the taking of property by
right of eminent domain, if the legis-
lature properly could determine that

deemed public in reference to the right
of the legislature to compel an indi-
vidual to part with his property for a
compensation, and to authorize or d.
rect taxation to pay for it, are being en-
larged and extended with the progress
of the people in education and refine
ment. Many things which a century
ago were luxuries or We're altogether
unknown have now become necessities.
It is only within few years that lands
have been taken in this country for
public parks. Now the right to take
land for this purpose is generally recog-
nized and frequently exercised. Many
statutes have been passed in this COIN
monwealth allowing taxation for pur-
poses affecting the health, comfort
pleasure and recreation Of the people,
and thus conducting to their welfare.
This is an encouraging decision. 1t

ers, but it is good for those who need

THE SUPERVISORS.

gate the supervisor system in the pub
lie schools of New Haven ex-Alderman
DeWell was the chief questioner He
succeeded in bringing out much inter-
esting and important information, al
though he was somewhat hindered and
hampered by the way in which the
hearing was conducted. There is to be
another hearing tomorrow evening,
when 1t is expected that Mr.. Fox will
have more to say unless the intelligent
committee shuts him off, which it will
hardly be likely to do in the face of the
general desire to hear more from him.
OF course the Investigate ton cannot be
indefinitely prolonged, but there is evil
IDENTIFY enough in sight to profitably fill
up few hours more.

A BOWERY LEADER.

The critic Is the most prominent lead
er of Bowery society. He is low of
speech and hesitates, sometimes pain
fully. but when he does speak every
word hits. He does not go about, al is
the manner of less cultivated specta-
tors, but strikes home with n few
words, mainly figurative. Although he
is full of the instructive aversions and
tastes of man Of culture, he is re-
tired prize fighter, and spends most of
his time in an uncommonly dirty sa-
loon.
At ball which this leader of Bowery
society gave, hard walk took place
in which there We're contestants for a
prize, to be given to him who was the
most natural. Any one who should
burlesque the walk Of the Bowery

walk was to be given, it was to be
given right.

G. ENER1L WHITES BAD luck.


General White owns up like man,
but that doesn't better matters much.
The British have received severe set
back, and the Beers have again shown
that they are foes whom it is not wise
or safe to trif1e with. Good generalship
and good craftsmanship have charac-
terized their warfare so far, and though
their cause is hopeless they may do not
a little more damage. Perhaps the Brit
ish will now keep out of their way, If
they can, until some Of the REINFORCE
ments arrive Six thousand British
troops are expected at Cape Town Sun
day, and more will follow every day
next week if the plans which have been
made work accurately. When all the
troops to be sent reach South Africa
there will be about 10000 there. Mean
while there is gloom in England on ac
count of the mistake which seems to
have been made, and a very deep dispo-
stion to eventually get even, or a little
more than even, with the Beers.

FRANCE oUGnr TO Re c4RErU

FhA ME- OCu1I ~ DE W MR. OfS'
This country is spending more than
million dollars day, but it is sc
rich that 1t can afford to spend all il
wants to and more too. With other
countries, it is, Of course, very different.
For instance, France. M. Paul Leroy
Beaulieu comments on the French bud
get for 1900 with tone of alarm. If
the future Of French finance consists,
he says, in spending each year 35,000,-
600 francs more than In the preceding
year French prosperity is bound to
succumb. All nations, it is said, are
constantly doing the same thing-in-
creasing expenditure. But whatever
other nations do, France, NJ Leroy
Beaulieu argues cannot afford It, Her
budget is 800, 100000 francs more than
England's, though England has 1900, 900
or 20 per cent. richer. The increase of
expenditure on the French navy is pro
nounced wholly indefensibe yet IL
000,00 francs more are to be spent on
the navy in 1900 than in 1898 France,
says the writer, fought to have a first
class army, but she need not have a
first class navy. II France had war
with England the Trans Sahara rail-
road would be a more effective instru-
ment for the defense of her colonies
than any fleet, as it would place Eng
lish possessions in West Africa at the
mercy of the French army in Algeria"
France will do well to follow the ad-
vice of M. Leroy Beaulieu about econ
omy. This country needn't care about
what it spends, or even whether it gets
its moneys worth

Verdi has raised a novel point as to
musical production and has won his
case At the recent electrical exhibition
in Brussels a number of telephones
were set up in connection with a con-
cert-room. A number Of people were
thus enabled to hear the music without
the composers being a penny piece the
better The telephone company were
appealed to In vain to remit reason
able profit of the performance to the
composers. But it was not till a piece
from "Rigoletto" was played that the
question was taken into court. The
result is that the company has lost its
case, its defense that the rights for the
iexecution Of the music had already been
paid for being held by the judge to be
no excuse for an infringement of copy
fright. Verdi has been Unidentified for
sthe illegal reproductions and the COM
,pany has been forbidden to give any
more of his music without his consent.

we understand are being circulated

interest, the text giving graphic and con-
else descriptions of the regions in North
ern Ontario, including the Muskoka

wan River and the 10000 Islands of the
Georgian Bay The pamphlets are pro-
fusely illustrated with half-tone repro
duction of river, lake and island scenery.

novel process Of the printers art, which
has been invented after long and care
full experiment with blending of colors
and mixing of ingredients, to get the
very artistic and beautiful effect which
they present The process has been
styled 'Luxotype," and is entirely new

publications issued are '.Muskoka Lakes
