d. Lane sailed for Cape Nome at o'clock
this morning from the White Star dock

of cargo probably the largest cargo sent
north this season. The Lanes most prom
ilent passengers are Charles d. Lane Of

ing company, of which he is the principal
stakeholder. His freight includes all the
rolling stock for a seven-mile railroad

Nome City to its mines on Anvil, Glacier
and Dexter creeks. Besides the railroad
equipment there are or 10 large boilers
and much mining machinery The min.
ing machinery outfit is said to be the
largest and most complete ever sent to
Alaska. Mr.. NcGraw goes to Nome
to assume the duties of United States
coast commissioner for the district, hav-
ing been appointed to the Office several
months ago by the Hon. c. S. johnson,

dustrial change that is rapidly taking,

oustrial change that is rapidly taking
place In certain sections of the South.
Inc advent of Belgian. German. Dutch
ana French immigrants is changing the
agricultural status, especially in Louisl-
ANA THESE newcomers are thrifty and
practical farmers and truck gardeners
accustomed to make the most of every
square root OF their ground. The great
plantations of other days are being
broken up into small farms averaging
thlrty acres, for which the Belgian is
wiling to pay $40 an acre. Under the
old one-crop system the planter was
content II he got gross income of $40
OF SoO year per acre from his cotton
OF corn. The Belgian thinks himself i'll
used II he does not get 500 a year, and
ne often gets 5000. This he does by a
constant rotation Of crops of every sort.
Inc Sun correspondent says these new
inhabitants are prospecting so we'll and
are increasing so rapidly that they are
changing the whole economic aspect of
southern agricultural interests. They
are producing the early vegetables,

When Horace Fletcher proposed
complete moral quarantine for waits,
and an endeavor to bring every child in
the community under educative and
moralizing influences, he was met by
the cry: 1T Is impracticable! Besides,
1t would cost so muchp' The problem,
How to deal with the bad" has i'm
portant economic aspects. In truth, the
moral waste In the human rubbish
heap that may be found in every city
is only the darker side of huge social
loss, Of which the lighter side Is ma
terial waste. The Importance of saw
ing souls needs not to be urged. If one
believes in soul at all, he believes,
theoretically at least, that it is worth
saving at any cost. But, practically,
the work of human salvation Is OBJ
structed ON the one hand by economic
parsimony, and on the other by econ
Omic prodigality; and both Of these are
opposed to a rational economy. There
are two or three truths that ought to
be obvious to all intelligent people, but
TO which many are strangely blind. The
| first is, that society must bear the cost
of taking care of 1.-The bad" There is
no option. They are class which can
not be ignored or shaken off. They are
like the "0ld man of the sea-" The
second truth is, that the present meth
cd Of restraint is not only ludicrously
ineffective but also very costly What
an immense number of institutions
society has created to protect itself
from the menace and mischief of its
own prOduct-police. sherlffs, courts,
jals, penitentiaries. refOrmatories,
poorhouses, executions and the like!
All these are expensiye; in the aggre-
gate they cost a vast sum Add to this
the cost of thousands of organizations
for reform and for mitigating the evil
and distress caused by the deprava
ton of human life-bethels, rescue
homes, asylums, relief societies, feder-
ated charities, ct id omme genus. Final
~, add the economic loss caused by the
| unproductiveness of the bad and of
those who guard them. This entire sum
| of cost to society is sufficient to care
effectively for the moral training of
every neglected child and leave at least
fourth part Of the money unused.
This is no mere guess. Careful esti-
mates have been made which fully JUS
| tify the statement that the present ex-
penditure for imperfect restraint of
evil would be sufficient for effective
prevention. Our moral blunder Is also
an economic blunder of the gravest
sort. But is prevention possible? A
single instance may be cited in reply,
namely, Dr. Bernardo's work on behalf
of the waits in London. Before he be-
gan his work, these, almost without ex-
ception, were recruiting 1.-The bad"
Out of nearly ten thousand cases there
has been loss of less than two in a
hundred The rest were saved to de-
cency, health, morality and economic
productiveness. Those who seek the
salvation of the world will work with
divine effectiveness when they see
clearly what this means: "a little child
shall lead them"

No difficulty is experienced in making

1t is astonishing how many peo-
pie of ordinary good judgment will
invest the price Of piano with

business is to sell pianos and we
know our business. We can tell
you about every piano manufac
tured in the United States.
We have been here seven years,

Every piano sold by us is a

badly come to the conclusion that
