the threshold Of "a new departure. Our
horizon h widening. Opportunities are
greater and more numerous. Every
steamship from America brings visitors
and settlers. Demand and supply are re-
adjusting their relations. There Is a COM

the reaper OF tares. The honest and the
industrious are welcome; sharpers. swim
dlers. prOcurers, professional criminals
and professional paupers are here al
ready, and more are coming and will
come N we do not organize to make the
Paradise Of the Pacific a vcritable hades

New Orleans Woman Who Gained
Favor by Making Many wills of
Big Figures.
Several years ago." said a New Or
leans lawyer, chatting about queer ex-
periences in his profession, "a woman
died in this city who, to my certain
knowledge, had made at least twenty
five different wills. OF course, there
are people in the world who have Il
mania for Williamsburg. just as there
are manias in other directions; but
there was distinct method in this wo-
mans madness. She made her numer-
Gus wills for the deliberate purpose Of
exciting cupidity, and then profiting hy
it, and II the true story Of the curious
complications growing out of that pol
icy could be written, it would form an
astonishing chronicle ofgreed and du-
plicity.
"To begin with. she had n couple Of
pieces Of improved property, worth,
perhaps. $4,000, and a lot of personal
belongings which were junk and rub
bish but which she valued at fabulous
figures. Between the two she was re
puted to he worth from $4,000 to &c.,
900, and there was much jealousy as
to the prospective succession among a
lot of distant relatives. The old wo-
mans plan was to take up her quarters
with some particular set of her kin and
make a will in their favor. Needless
to say she was given every considera-
ton, but she was an irascible person.
and invariably got into quarrel
in the course Of few months, and
moved somewhere else, where the
same programme was repeated. She
spent years in migrations Of that sort.
going the rounds of her relatives sew
eral times, and camping temporarily
with numerous personal friends
when she finally died 1t was found
that her last authentic will left the
coveted property to niece who lad
shown her scarcely any attention at
all, and the wall OF rage and disap-
pointment that arose was something
simply terrific. l dare say she engeu-
dered more family bitterness when she
was alive percipitated more rows, and
was instrumental In causing greater
number of people to stop speaking
when they passed by than any one
person in the parish. This was an ex-
treme case. but II was by no means
unique. Almost every lawyer In town
who has large general practice could
cite instances where tudicious will
making has kept old age surrounded
by affectionate solicitude. New Or

Dear Sir and Friend-We had
lucky trip, made good connections and
got to Wetaskiwin Monday afternoon;
stayed there all night, bought pony
and saddle for the boy and hired
three-seated rig for the balance of US,
and got home to dinner next day:
caught the boys cleaning up and get
ting ready to come after us. Wednes-
day the snow was all gone and we had
bare ground and bright sunshine for
a month, and il has been pleasant
weather ever since. The ground Is
frozen about tW feet and about six
inches of snow-just enough for good
sleighing. We had one cold spell in
December. The thermometer went
down to 80 below zero, but we did not
suffer with the cold at all. We have
worked every day all winter are all
we'll and feeling we'll; have built log
house lSx1S, two log stables 16x1S. and
are now busy on a well. We have 10
cows. three other cattle and six head
Of horses. The boys send their best
respects to Mr.. Huchison, and say they
will talk to him enough to pay for not
writing when he gets up here; will
write you again next spring and tell
you all about the winter. We all
unite in sending you and family our
best wishes and respects and hope this
will find you all we'll.
Yours very respectfully,

In a metropolitan court woman
was sued for the value of certain
quantity OF bread supplied to her or

In defense she stated that the amount
charged was exorbitant, as, owing to
being stale, she was entitled to re-
duction in price.
After conflicting evidence, presum-
ing the cnse would be decided against
her, the defendant placed her hand
under her heavy shawl, and produc-
ing a loaf. she shonted:
"Seeing's believing, your honor.
That's a spceimen-stale enough for
menagerie. and hard as brick!"
With smile. the judge tried to pass
his th.mb into the substantial evil
dence befo-3 him. but, being baffied on
all sides, he exclaimed:
"My gooc woman, / quite feel for
you as well as the loaf. Judgment

II transpired afterward that the de-
