Salmon Being Disseminated.

DR.. Grinnell, editor of Forest and
Stream, has just returned with the
Hartman exploring expedition from
Alaska. He brings what is probably
the most important information gath
cred by cientists-namely, that the
salmon in the streams of the territory
are being rapidly eXterminated. The
fisheries devoted to this important in
dustry make quite a figure in the Pa
cific trade, and the editor named sug-
gested that some measure for the pres
ervation Of the fish be taken before it
is too late. The salmon canning bust
ness far exceeds in value the seal
catch, about which so much interna-
tional controversy has ragged for so
many years.

CnlyIn.s House in Geneva.

An Imposing demonstration in honor
Of Calvin has just been held in the city
of Geneva, which he raised to the
proud position of "the Rome of Prot
cstantism." A memorial tablet was
affixed to the house which now occu-
pies the site of Calvin's house, in the
Rue Calvin, with the inscription:
John Calvin lived here, 1543-1564."
Unfortunately for the precise truth of
the inscription, the modest dwelling
the great reformer really inhabited
was pulled down in 17O6, SO that the
memorial had to be placed upon
another house occupying the same site.
M. Vigier, who delivered decoration at
the public unwilling of the tablet,
made a touching allusion to this fact.
Wildhaus, the little commune Of the
Toggensburg, where Zwingi, the re-
former of German Switzerland, was
born, has reverently preserved intact
its far more ancient 'Zwinglihutte."

AN ITALIAN ON THE ENGLISH.
Too Calm for Anything to Arouse Any
Interest.

Il think that the English calmness, 4"
so writes .Pietro Verri in one of his
letters OF 1880, published in the HUI
manitarian, docs not depend SO much
on the climate as on the fact that here
many truths have already become trite
and commonplace. In Paris there is an
extraordinary enthusiasm for philoso-
ply because philosophy and it's truths
are diversified and contrasted, and
from this is produced a shock and
ferment which throw all minds into
revolt; but in London no one gets ex-
cited about anything. If you wish to
believe in nothing, you are at liberty
to do so. If you want to believe only
little, you can do so. If you wish to
believe this way, or that way, you are
always free to do as You like. Should
you want to found new sect, you can
found it. Do you wish to say that the
king is fool? You can say it as often
as you please-my servant says it
hundred times day. To sum up, here
liberty, not being bound by any lin
itation, is altogether peaceful. The
most wretched beggar Is free to publish
his opinion about anybody and every
body, and a group Of Scottish journal
lists do nothing every day but deride
the government and the court. But.
after all, what pleasure does an emo
tional man derive from this? /, who,
when in Milan had such great desire
to laugh at our senate and our magis-
trates, do not even think of such a
thing here. 1t would be just the sarle
thing as to speak of the y Gather.
Nitimur in vetitum. Some truths have
become so common here that they no
longer form the subject of surprise or
enthusiasm"

Coal Mining In China.

In point of abundance coal takes the
first place among the mineral products
OF China. The coal fields of the coun-
try are estimated to equal in extent all
the coal fields OF the world put to-
gether, but the output mas 'as/yet been
trifing. This is partly due to the fact
that the rich est regions are difficult OF
access and that the Chinese miner can
not cope with water in the pits. The
mining is therefore carried on by
means of horizontal adits or shallow
pits. The tableland of Shansyi yields
the best coal, other great fields being
in SuchWan and KWeichou.

Study of the relation between the
total length of life and the time re-
quired to reach maturity has brought
ou. an interesting comparison between
men and horses. A horse at five years
is said to be, comparatively, as old as
a man at twenty, and may be expected
to behave, according to equine stand
ards, after the manner of the average
college student following human stand
ards. A ten-year-old horse resembles,
as far as age and experience go, man
of forty, while horse which has at
tanned the ripe age OF thirty-ive is
comparable with a man of ninety
years.

rha biggest Kitchen.

Probably the largest kitchen in the
world is to be found in the Bon Marche
in Paris. In it sixty cooks are en-
ployed and 100 kitchen boys. 1t pro-
vides, says Kitchen, food for the 1000
employees OF the house. There are If
ty frying pans, each of which can hold
300 outlets at time; a coffee machine
which makes $50 quarts daily, and the
smallest kettle holds seventy-fve
quarts. For this enormous household
1900 eggs have to be used to provide
omelettes for breakfast alone.

A Shirt Waist Coupler.

The person who invents a successful
coupler for the shirt waist will confer
a boon upon womankind that will be
widely appreciated. The woman in a
shirt waist always anticipates differ
ence between her waist and skirt, a
gap of divergence, a severance Of the
connections. The ordinary observer
will notice, especially at the theater or
church, the concerted action in which
every womans hand goes to her belt
in the rear when she rises to her feet
for any purpose. 1t is an instructive
movement and not at all ungraceful,
and TO the onlooker an interesting per-
Torrance.

PRIMITIVE CHRONOLOGY.
In Mexico Months Are Named After the
Arrival of Birds.

Arrival OF Birds.
The most primitive method in chro-
nology is that which enables man to
orient himself in the world of time by
associating particular lurations with
vicissitudes of weather, with seasonal
aspects of vegetation, and with the
constantly changing sights and sounds
of the animal world, Gays Popular Sci
ence Monthly. In the calendar of the
Crees, for example, we FIND such desig-
nations as "duck-month," frog
moon" "loaf-moon," "berries-ripe
month";" collaborating moon"
"leaves entirely changed" "leaves IN
the trees" "fsh-catching moon"
moon that strikes the earth cold"
Coolest moon," "ice-thawing moon"
"eaglcs-seen MOON So in the calen-
dars Of Central America and Mexico
the months are named variously after
the arrival OF birds, the blossoming oil
flowers, the blowing of winds, the re-
turn Of mosquitoes and the appearance
of fishes. The Greeks constantly used
the movements Of birds to mark the
seasons; the arrival Of the swallow and
kite were thus noted. Hesiod tells us
how the cry of the crane signaled Thu
departure of winter, while the sitting
of the pleiades gave notice to the plow.
