AN ELEPHANT TRAMP IN ENGLAND.
From The London Mail.

For nearly a week past the peasants on the
South Of England roads have been amazed at
the spectacle Of a small herd OF elephants slowly
vending their way LOndOnward.
These monster animals have just walked the
whole distance from Southampton to Earrs
Court. where they will form part of the Greater
Britain Exhibition. ns-t
Their keepers took them through country lanes
and avoided as far as possible passing through
the larger towns Many horses were terrified at
the sight Of the great quadrupeds. At night the
animals were stabbed in farm buildings along
the route and several keepers who had accom-
panied them from Africa took of them
their trip to London.
This is the first time that herd Of elephants
has ever walked through Southern England.

WESTERN CANADA rs ALL
RIGHT.

Delegates representing a number OF
neighboring farmers in Clay county,
Mimi, who visited the Edmonton dis
trict of western Canada last summer
are evidently very well satisfied with
the result of their trip. They think so
well of the country that, in addition TO
the privilege of obtaining free home
stead of 16o acres of land, they have
also purchased land. In recent inter
view on the subject Messrs. c. E. and
A. Hughes, of Barnesville, Clay county,
say:
1--WE are we'll pleased with western
Canada. 1t is far ahead of what we
expected. AS for the crops, we have
never seen anything that can compete
with them. We have lived in Mime
sofa and have farmed some of what
they count the best lands in the 4
River valley for ten years, and have
done very well in that part of the
country, and have farms there at pres
ent free of all encumbrance. but be-
lieve that this country (western Can
aGa) is so much better that we Lave
bought from the Canadian Pacific Rail-
way company one section of land
northeast of Edmonton, in the Beaver
Hill district. We have travelled through
that part of the country, and haze seen
the grain in the granaries and the
amount of land that it was taken off,
and find that they have grown as much
as so bushels and over to the acre, and
they say that this has not been a good
year, and very little if any grain has
been touched by the frost. Hay seems
to be plentiful, and if you wish to put
up log buildings you can get the logs
within a few miles. Coal can be had I
the mines for IS cents per ton, or you
can dig it yourself. Nearly all kinds
of garden truck can be grown in abun-
dance. We find everything that can be
grown in good demand. The farmers |
tell us that they can get four and a |
half live weight per hundred for hogs,
and for three -year-old steers from $50 |
to $50 per head, providing they are
good. We will move into that part of |
the country next summer. All the peo-
pie in that part of the country seem sat
isfied, and we do not see any reason
why they should not be So
Messrs. Hughes also stated that they
would be very glad to afford anyone de-
string particulars about the country
they had visited the fullest informa-
tion, on receiving inquiries at Barnes
vile, Clay county, before the first of
June next. when it is understood they
propose to return to the Edmonton dis
.rict.

The Human Race.

For generation past students of his
tory have been breaking away from
traditional notions of the age of the
human face in the world. In Europe, il
IS conceded, there are traces of man

history back hundred thousand years
or more, and in eastern North Ameri-
ca much evidence has been adduced
tending to show that this continent was
occupied at least at the close of the
glacial period, from 10000 to 10000
years ago. California has, however,
put forth claims TO still greater an
tiquity. and, as if determined to outdo
the world in this. as in other things,
claims TO be the cradle of the race. par

necessary to express the time if years

story of the discoveries that lead 10

indeed, and the manner in
