The barracks at Warsaw, erected By
the Russian czars to hold In check the
unruly Poles. are BY far the most spa
eious in the world. The guns In the
walls facing the city could easily lev
el the capital Of Old Poland TO the
ground, while the garrison maintained,
numbering nearly 10000 troops, could
overawe any rebellion, unless the con-
spirators had aid from outside. The
barracks cover some 5000 acres In the
highest portion OF the suburbs This
barracks at Aldershot, England, are
the second largest In the world, hay-

A GREAT FRENcHMEN.
The New President OF the French
Senate.

The New President OF the French
\ The new president Of the French
senate, Clemsnt Armand Fallieres, has
been a political factor for over twenty
years, although he Is only IS years OF
age. He was elected TO the chamber
of deputies as q Republican In 1876,
and in 1880 was under secretary Of
state. When Carnot became president
Of the republic, the first prime min
lister he thought Of was Falheres. and
he asked him to form cabinet, In
which the latter failed to succeed.
Nevertheless he became q member Of
three cabinets under Carrots presi-
deney. That would be enough to show
what kind Of a man he Is. But his
whole career shows It as well While
his first chief. Jules Ferry. was unable
to be chosen as prime minister for fear
Of the animosity Of his foes. Fallierss,
who belonged to Ferry's whole minis
Try and was q genuine opportunist, was
looked upon as an excellent choice,
which nobody could fairly resent From
1880 to 1889 he has been eight times Q
member of the government He has
been once prime minister and minister
Of foreign affairs (1ssS). twice minister
Of public instruction (1ss3 and 1880,
twice minister OF justice (1SS7 and
1890 and three times he has occupied
the ministry Of the interior, In 1880.
1882 and 1887. He Is not q nne-lookins
president. He is somewhat too stout,
too fat and too heavy, and the cartoon
lists have often taken him as their tar
get But he is an orator Of great akin.
Moreover. he Is a man Of absoluts In
tegrity. whose whole career Il above
suspicion. Nothing Is more important
for great body like the senate, which
has sometimes to face unpopularity,
than 20 be represented BY q man whose
character n unquestionable, and whose
purity cannot be assailed.

W. r. Milburn, John Holmes, NJ R

county, Iowa, report as follows Of the
Canadian Northwest as to IT'S suit
ability for farming, and the advan-
tages It offers to tho agricultural I'M
migrant from the United States:
I'VE came here solely to look up I'm

not visited the homestead districts AZ
all, though we believe them to be very
inviting. Our inquiries have been
confined solely to the district around
Hartney, Deloraine and towards the
Souris River in Manitoba. Our I'M
pressions Of all that region are IN
every way satisfactory, and We have
decided to 20 back to Iowa at once,
and, having disposed Of our several
interests there, to return to Manitoba
10 the month Of March next, and, eff
fecting our purchase Of improved
farms. which we find we can do at
reasonable rates, Immediately begin
farming. We are greatly pleased with
all that we have seen In that part O
western Canada. The soil We ind .
be more than equal to that Of our own
country for wheat-growing, and the
other conditions Of climate. schools,
markets, etc, are all that we could
wish for. -
ITO show what an energetic man
can do we may mention that we found
one such at Hartney who had rented
4 farm on shares, receiving two-thirds
of the returns as his share OF the
crop. When he came to sell his own
produce he found that his two-thtrds,
when converted into cash, was enough
10 buy the farm he rented out and
mt which he accordingly did, and II
now its owner. It Il our intention 20
Induce as many Of our friends as pos

move from Iowa to this country,
where we believe there II q better
future for the industrious man than
q now to be found anywhere on this

part of the state Of Iowa, and We IN
