Many applicants recently had to return
to their childless homes when it became
known that there were no more little
ones to give away. The fact is encour-
aging, and one may hope that the time
will soon come when there shall not be
an orphan asylum of an uncared,for
child in the civilized world. In Austria
liza and New Zealand there is none such.
The demand for such children is from
wealthy people who have none. A French
statistician says that in spite of the in
crease of population in various countries
the rate of increase is steadily diminish
ing. Austria is really little better than
France in this respect, while Germany,
which shows the largest increase of Eu-
ropean nations has a declining birth
rate The United States, with it's in
crease of 100000 in the last decade, has
the largest decline of birth-rate and
would surely show signs of retrogression,
but for the steady volume of emigration.

gree of luxury in civilization

electrocuted at the Ohio penitentiary.
Some of the press accounts speak of
him as being crazy, and after reading
the papers one would imagine that he
was one of those long-haired and wire

not: he is a nice-looking fellow and
talks intelligently, but not very freely.

strength. People stripped his button:

strips for souvenirs, and he had to gel

him, he tore the buttons all off Parker

desperate fight even after he was

The G. A. R.
National Encampment at Cleve-
land.

There was an immense crowd at the
Grand Army Encampment at Cleve-
land. this week. The papers estimate
it at $50, 900.
The decorations were not as profuse
nor as elaborate as in several other
cities, but the electrical illumination
of the public square was magnificent
and by far the finest we ever saw.
The order was perfect, Notwithstanding
the whole center of the city was con-
jested by the crowds.
The parade was very good, but was
inferior to number we have seen.
The delegations from the States were
small, compared with some other occa-
sons-notably the Encampment at
Washington, Philadelphia and Buffalo.
And the number of ffine-appearing Posts
marching in the line, was not equal to
other occasions.
than usual, and this did not give the
spectators as good opportunity to see
the parade.
The living flag, formed by over SOC
children, dressed in white and blue,
was the most striking feature of all the
display. The flag was at the end ot
Bond street, stretching across its full
width, and extending nearly so feet II

THE ASSASSIN!
His AccompIices, and Their Prob
able Punishment,

The news as to what has been OBJ
tanned from Czolgosz by the detectives
what confessions he has made, what
probability there is that there was q
conspiracy, how the prisoners and
others implicated will be tried, are
matters still of conjecture The stories
that are going out, are so contradic'
tory, it is hard to tell what is true.
The latest dispatches state that moth.
ing has been gotten out of the assassin
since he was arrested. He has made
no other confession than that which he
first made, to-wit: That he had no &C
complies: that he committed the deco
of his own will; that he was incited u
it by the speeches of Emma Goldman
and that he alone is responsible. HI,
is not permitted to read the papers ol
to hear anything from the outside
world, and he does not know whether
the President is dead or living.
Eleven anarchists were arrested a

shot. Emma Goldman was ARRESTED
Tuesday in. Chicago. A few other an
archists have been shut up. The wo
man Goldman was in Rochester, N. Y.
the day before the shooting of tn,
President, and bought a ticket fol
Buffalo. When arrested, she denied
that she was Miss Goldman, and pre-
tended not to know Czolgosz.
1t is now said that the arrests of tn,

there is no evidence of a conspiracy

tried under the laws Of New York, AMI
not for treason, and thai he can only b,
