ager. Mr.. Duncan has come to the
conclusion that Eagle would be an ap-
propriate name for the new vessel. He
has not yet fully reached decision in
the matter, bat Eagle has national
ring about it,, and it is not dey old of
meaning. Some object to the name
on the ground that it is too short for
such a big boat, but that is nothing.
1t really stands for size, strength and
speed, and the bird is the national en-
blem of the United States, which is q
great deal.

Inconsistency.

The Inconsistency of some people is
truly refreshing, remarks an old time
country editor. Every town has its
merchant who does not advertise. It
doesn't pay and nobody reads the pa
pers anyhow. However, when an cpl
demic Of smallpox hits the town, the
man who doesn't advertise calls the
editor into his store, sets 'em up to
the musty stogies, and says: s'Don' i
print anything about it; every body
reads the papers and it will hurt my

nPE :! 4 / COMMENT.

! Edited BY the Press supt. Of the W. @.
r. U. Of Wilmar.l S.ss ,s .S In,
G. N. Howard Of Rochester, New
York, gives q moderate estimate Of
the cost of the saloon in this country.
He says: THE saloon receipts
every year would build two hundred
thousand homes at two Thousand dol
lars each, put two thousand dollars
worth of furniture in every home, one
thousand dollars worth Of groceries
and -four in every pantry, one hundred
tons of coal In every cellar and five
hundred dollars worth of wearing APP
parel in the closets ''This would
require four hundred million dollars
worth more of raw material than Is
now used in the manufacture OF drink
to make them, and give employment
to one million three hundred and for
ty-seven thousand more men; turn
every wheel, employ every man, bless
every home, gladden. every heart and
do more to realize the dream. of the
worlds refo,mers, -benefactors and
philanthropists in single year than
the adoption of all the reforms,
schemes and policies named in either
the republican or democratic platform
could realize in dozen years.. Con.
sidered as financial question the
tariff and money question is not
worthy to be compared with that
represented by the abolition of the
saloon"
'When shall we wing" Why when we fire
Straight to the mark, and never tire;
When we hold fast as we've begun,
And Still work on till all is done.
"When shall we win?" When filled with zeal,
We face the foe of human veal,
And flinglng to the wind each fear,
Gods trumpet call alone we hear!
"When shall we VIM" When we're content
To die, nor to retreat consent;
Resolved to shun the recreant's shame,
And rather choose martyrs name.
The cause OF right is charged to win
Omnipotence is not with sin
Since God is King. His cause we see
The light and crown OF victory.
Be this our care, that we endure,
IT'S this will keep our conscience pure;
And when the righteous cause has won,

Harvest Song.

Summer all is a pleasure past,
Summer charm Is tale that's told:
Days of reaping have come, at last.
Days of ripeness and days OF gold;
Down the meadow-way glad and strong,
Loves comes singing his harvest song.
Love is brown with his harvest toll,
Brown. and brawny OF limb is he,
Master strong in the garden moil,
Lord OF pasture. and plant, and tree;
Treasure-brdened, he plods along,
Singing brightly his harvest song.
And in answer the autumn breeze
Sings pleasant and fair refrain,
Through the boughs of the orchard trees,
Der the fields of the waving grain,
Hark! the echoes about him throng-
Natures singing her harvest song.

In solitary grandeur, but apart
The towering hilltoFs can but serve to start
A sleeping ncbleness 10 life again.
The great-souled natures find their province when
They join the toilers in the street, the mart,
Their honest. rugged sturdiness of heart

For such is not the narrow, binding creed,
Nor struggle TO excel at others cost
The pickering selfish strife TO win who can
On them the Pharisaic cult is lost;
Theirs is TO seek and help the crying need,
To stir in all the majesty OF man.

And tired nature holds her breath;
The landscape donS its bldckest shroud

Dumb instinct for their gude
In groups they close together stand,
To wait what ere betide

hurried silent prayer upyield
Commenting their souls to God.

Making for Death a feast.

Recent Fiction.

THE Middle Five" by Francis La
Flesche, is most simple and unpreten-
tious account OF the way in which Indian
boys at school work, play. and employ
themselves generally. The author Is him
self an Indian of the Omaha tribe, and
this little book is almost entirely auto
biography. 1t is chiefly valuable proof
of the utter uninterestingness of the half
educated aborigine. These Indian young
sters, in their paternal lodges, or wander
ing on the prairie, might be extremely
picturesque and fascinating; gathered in
a school. dressed in blue uniforms, and
talking broken English, they are nothing
of the kind. When there is so much that
is commonplace in the world, it seems
rather a pity to add to it, and there APP
pears to be no reason why an Indian
cannot learn his A c in the clothes his
forefathers wore as well as in American
dress Neither does it seem TO be an
absolute necessity to do away with the
original Indian tongues. which are in
many cases musical, picturesque. and ex-
pressive Viewed in this light, Mr.. La
Flesche's book may be regarded as a
sort Of warning. Viewed in another light
It may be useful as showing that when
minus his buckskin, feathers. and paint,
an Indian is very much like other people
in appearance and manner as well as in
nature. Boston: Small Maynard &

How is the centre Of population reck0ned4

The centre Of population is considered
as the centre of gravity of population,
and each individual is assumed to have
the same weight. Then the population OF
the country is distributed in Square de-
grees," areas included between consec-
utive parallels and mt ridians point is
next assumed tentatively as the centre.
and corrections computed For the
latter process, the population of each
square degree is assumed to be located
at its centre. except where 1t obviously
is otherwise. in which case its centre of
population is estimated with all possible
accuracy. Then the shortest distance be-
tween each such centre and the assumed
centre for the country Is ascertainsd the
population OF each square degree is multi
piled by its distance from the assumed
centre. ana the sums of the products
north and south are ohtai-ca mir ar

the country gives a correction to the lati-
tude OF the assumed centre. and In like
fashion an east and west correction is Sc

a number of half-tone reproductions from

while he appreciates the sympathetic art

his is not altogether original. though en-
