by M. Bourguignon:
First Of all, the long feathers of the
left wing are cut, to prevent the I'M
trained birds decorating the face of the
trainer. Then to each foot is attached
q leather thong, by means of which the
bird can be conveniently held without
risk. For two or three days each bird
is carefully fed by hand at regular in
tervals and at the end of this time conn
plete docility is obtained, and the birds,
having become accustomed to their

ING R1TITUDE.

If republics are ungrateful perhaps it
republics colonies, dependencies, benev-
olent assimilations, or whatever they
are, will also be ungrateful. The
Diario de la Marina, a Havana news
paper, calls attention to the fact that
when Cubas neck was CALLED by the
yoke of Spanish despotism," the island
had constitution under which the peo
pie enjoyed home rule and under which
the public offices could be filled only by
native Cubans or by Spanish residents
who had lived a certain length of time
on the island. Thanks to the glorious
revolution, which freed Cuba from
Spanish rule" adds the Havana news
paper, there is now no constitution
nor law save the saber-and the latter
is supreme"
This is a poor return for all that this
country has done for Cuba, but such
ingratitude is a part Of the white mans
burden which we have taken up. We
must not be disturbed by any lack Of
appreciation shown by the Cubans, nor
by any such suggestion as that made
by the Philadelphia North American,
which says: THE decent thing to do
now is to reimburse Cuba for what our
thieves have stolen. wind up our affairs
as trustees for the liberated people and
let them try their own hands in gov
erning their country, giving them only
such assistance and advice as they ask

ROOJI IN CIVIL ENG INEERING.

Those who are studying to become
civil engineers will be encouraged by
some remarks made by Professor
George f. Swain, of the Massachusetts
Institute of Technology. The Spring
field Republican has lately published
some items concerning the difficulty
that educated young men find in get
ting work. Reference was made in one
communication to "a well educated and
competent graduate of the Institute Of
Technology who is civil engineer by
training, who is to-day selling baking
powder, in lack of anything better to
do" This attracted the attention of
Professor Swain, who says that, if the
institution in which he teaches is the
one referred to, he would like to know,
for since last December he has received
between 80 and 60 applications for men,
most of which he has been unable to
FILL as he knew of no graduates whom
he could recommend who are unem-
ployed If the story is true, he says,
"either the young man in question pre-
fers to sell baking powder rather than
to follow his profession, and does not
let me know that he desires engineer
ing employment, or else he is not man
in whom I feel sufficient confidence to
be able TO recommend him to the posi-
tons which have offered" He adds the
following general observations: The
fact is that there never was better
opportunity in civil engineering work
than there is to-day. good man is
certain TO tnd employment and TO be
able to make place for himself; but it
is true to-day, as it always has been,
that there are few places for poor men.
Many a man is dear at any salary in
engineering work, and a single mistake
may cost his employers more than his
entire wages for a year, Men of this
kind in justice to themselves, should
not attempt to enter this profession,
but there is great need and great OPP
portunity for able, bright young men
with an aptitude for engineering. There
are graduating from my department
every year some thirty young men.

An interesting exhibit prepared for
the Paris Exposition Is complete set
of bed -hangings manufactured in Mad
agascar from silk procured from the
halabe, an enormous spider found in
certain districts of the island. Aside
from being so unusual, this exhibit
seems to indicate that there is future
for silk manufactured from spiders
web. The matter has received the at
tention of M. Nogue, the head of the
Antananarivo Technical School, who
has already achieved wonderful results.
Each spider yields from three to four
hundred yards of silk, which can be
taken from the animal every ten days,
it being set free in the interval. The
silk of these spiders is stated to be
finer than that of the silkworm and of
an extraordinary golden color. 1t is
extremely tenacious, and can be woven
without the slightest difficulty.

Canada has established refrigerators
for the storage of fresh bait in cooper
alton with associations of fishermen
along the coast. Complaint arises sea-
son after season that bait is scarce just
when it is most urgently needed, YET
such bait can, as a rule, be obtained in
abundance early in the season when the
men are not in need of it. An appro-
priation of $4,000 has enabled the de-
partment of agriculture to remedy the
difficulty. The dominion government
assists the fishermens bait association
to the extent of so per cent of the cost
of building the freezers and by the pay

According to the Northwestern Miller,
the Standard, Excelsior and ST. Anthony
mills of the United States Flour Mill
ing company, has been leased to the
Northwestern Consolidated Milling com.
pany for $4,000 per year. The Consoli.
dated is given the use of brands of the
old owners, the Minneapolis Milling COM
pany. The Consolidated company pays
for all power insurance and taxes.
The water power since Feb has only
been equal to about so per cent of the
requirements Of the mills By using more
steam, however, the mills are able to
run twenty-four hours day. The water
power in winter has never been so
favorable since the milling industry in
this city has reached in presents mag
nitrde.
One of the reasons why the mills are
being operated as strongly as they are
at present is in order that the millers
may take advantage Of the rates and get
as much freight as possible In transit
before the advance comes. The all rail
rates are now lower than the lake rates
were at any time last season, but an add
vance Ia promised on the 18th of this

AT 2:15 this morning the Farmers ele-
vator, the property of the Farmers Co.
Fourth street, on the west side of the
Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul railway
tracks, YVES found to be on fire. The
fire department responded promptly, but
owing to the height Of the building and
also the fact that it was covered with
corrugated iron, 1t was impossible to
make much impression on the fire, which
had gained great Roadway before being
discovered. The loss was total.
The elevator was built two years ago,
and cost in the neighborhood of $1,000,
and has been in successful operation
since its erection. The building contained
about 1900 bushels of grain, mostly
wheat. The fire probably originated
from the office stove in some unaccount-
able manner.
The building was insured for $4,000 and
the grain for $1,000. There Is no doubt
that the elevator will be rebuilt at once,
business men having offered donation
for that purpose.

WASHINGTON, Feb. THE Republic
an members of congress from Michigan,
Wisconsin, Minnesota, Dakota and Wash
ington, and other states, who are opposed
to the shipping subsidy bill, have framed
amendments which they propose to offer
in committee and afterward in the h3use,
and which contain the notifications and
additions they demand before they will
vote for the bill They ask in the first
place the adoption of an amendment so
that ships which make long voyages with
out intermediate ports, like those which
sail to Japan, the Philippines, Australia
and Brazil, shall have a larger subsidy
in proportion than those which make
short trips They ask an amendment re-

sells strong enough to sustain a heavy
armament for use in time of war, and a
clause prohibiting the sale of vessels that
have received subsidies from the United
States to either foreign governments Or
foreign citizens; but the most pointed and
Objectionable amendment, which cannot
be accepted, as 1t will practically defeat
the purpose of the bill, is that no subsidy
shall be paid for any voyage unless the
ship shall carry freight equal to one-half
its tonnage. This would shut out all fast
passenger ships, which seldom carry more
than one-third or one-four-th of their ton
mage in cargo, so much space being re-
CURED for passenger accommoda ton, coal
and other supplies. This amendment is
said to have been suggested by James j.
