EnpIand,s Migrants Vanishing.

One of the most notable documents
issued in connection with poor law ad-
ministration for many years is that
which has just been prepared by the
local government board on the subject
of vagrancy in the eastern countries.
For generations the tramps and casual
class has been the despair of social re-
formers, and the hardest problem of all
for poor law administrators. If we are
to believe these figures, this class is now
decreasing so rapidly that within very
few years it will be extinct if the present
rate of decrease is maintained. The re-
turn gives the number of casuals in
Norfolk and Suffolk for the four years,
18o7-1ooo. In Norfolk the figures for
the four years are 2o,o37, 24,I28. 1906,
and last year only o,73o. In Suffolk the
corresponding decrease is from 23,o43
to 1888. For the two counties the de-
crease is just 20 per cent. From the de-
tails of the return we gather that the
decrease is general over SO out of 80
poor law unions of East Anglia.
The most conservative defenders of
things as they are will hear of the dis
appearance of the tramp in the country
in any considerable numbers in search OF
employment A few such there still arc,
but the great majority of caslals are the
loafers and semi-criminals who deliber-
ately prefer a vagrant life and a living
upon odds and ends questionably picked
up to any attempt at settled industry.
1t is this class which is being absorbed
into industry in some way or other. At
any rate, it is disappearing from our
roads and casual wards, and with it is
decreasing quite the most unpleasant
of all the responsibilities resting upon
provincial boards of guardians.-Lon-
don Meas.

How She Got Satisfaction.

They occupied two $3.50 seats at the
opera-those two women did.
They wore high and costly hats on
their heads and an aspect of grim de-
termination on their faces.
For the young woman in $3.50 seat
behind them had said:
Il beg your pardon, but will you
please remove your hats? =
And each had answered:
mo, will not"
When the first scene was over she
asked them again, and again they an
swered NO"
Then she went to the head usher and
made complaint
YES" he said, lit is hardship,
madam, but i hesitate to ask them. to
take off their hats, for know them, and
know they would refuse, and if |
should undertake to compel them there
would be scene. But can do better
for you than that. There is vacant
seat directly in front of them. Go and
take that, and l will see that you are
not disturbed"
She took ii.
Keep your hats on ladies, if you
choose. You will not incommoode me
in the least"
Then she put on her own hat, close
imitation of a Gainsborough in its de
sign, makeup, and general scope, and sal
serenely with it on her head through all
the rest Of the performance.
For she was only human, and the pro,
vocation was great.-Ciiied Tribune.

All the cats habits show 1t to be by
nature solitary animal. Even in early
life, when family ties bring out the
instinct of association, this is apparent.
If yon compare the play of puppies
with that of kittens you will find that
in one case companionship of some
kind is essential, for If puppy has no
playmate of his own species he will try
to make use of the nearest biped;
whereas cork or bit of string, Is all
that is necessary to satisfy the require
ments Of the kitten. The way in which
the cat takes its food is sign that In
Its natural state 1t Is not in the habit
of associating with greedy companions.
When given something to eat 1t first
carefully smells the morsel, then takes
it in deliberate and gingerly way and
sits down to finish 1t ut leisure. There
is none Of that inclination to snatch
hastily at any food held before 1t which
we observe in well-traincd dogs. nor
does cat seem in any hurry to stow
its goods in the one place where thiev-
ing rivals cannot interfere with them.
Indeed. no greater contrast in natural
table manners can be observed any
where than when we turn from the
kennel or the pigsty and watch the
dainty way in which cnt takes Its
meals. That cat allows people to ap.
pronch 1t while 1t is feeding without
showing Jealousy proves that 1t does
not attribute to human beings like
tastes with its own.-Wild Traits in
Tame Animals. 4,

How CANYONS We're Formed.


The secret of the great denudation
and Of this wonderful achievement of
the Colorado In carving out of rock a
series Of canyons about 500 miles long
and, in one place at least, more than a
mile deep. with a multitude of tribu-
tary chasn,s and gorges, is very simple
when you know it. The old lake bed
slowly rose. AT first the Colorado Riv-
er and its tributaries, or some name
less m0nstrous ancestors of these.
sweeping over the slowly rising sur
faces, planed them down in most re-
lentless fashion. and then began wear
ing out broad shallow stream beds.
But then the country rose more rapid
", and the water had to cut deeper
channels In the rocks III order to get
out and away to sea. Owing in part
to the wear of the water itself, but
more to the ceaseless bombardment Of
the suspended sand which It bore from
the up country, or picked up us it went
along, and to. the thump Of pebbles
agd powders which 1t swept on. in
flood time, the. river kept cutting down
as the strata rose, until finally. when
what was left of our inland sea bottom
got thrust up SO that, towering far
above its erstwhile rocky shores, 1t
had to be called plateau, the Colora-
do and Its auxiliaries found themselves
at the bottom of series of colossal
canyons and gorges, where they are
to-day.-Harper's Magazine.

HOW HOGS CATCH SALMON.


Wade Inlo the Western Sire lms AMI
Dive for the Fish.
In the State of Washington, as all
school boys and girls doubtless know,
are the greatest salmon fisheries in
America. Every spring the swift noun,
tain streams are fairly alive with these
beautiful reddish yellow fish three and
four feet in length and weighing often
twenty-five and thirty pounds, as they
go up the river TO deposit their eggs in
the headwaters Of the mountain
streams. Then in the early fall they
come down again. 1t is during two sea-
sons that what is known as the salmon
run is at Its full height, and this is the
time to which the Washington boys
look forward to all the rest of the year.
But the queerest fishers are neither
Indians nor boys. They are hogs. So
fond are the hogs of this delicacy,
which costs the people of London 81 a
pound, that the farmers who have pas
lures along the rivers have great trou-
BILE fencing the farms so that the hogs
cannot get info the streams. Mr.. Hog
wades in or swims in, according to the
depth of the stream. mud then watches
for the salmon. The salmon swims
along unsuspectingly. Mr.. Hog is ready
for him. Quick as flash he fastens
his greedy Jaws about the great fish and
carries him ashore, there to devonr him

His Explanation,

The explanations some authors are
compelled to make to readers of literal
or immature mipd-when they are
obliging enough to make them at all
are often rs good literature as the
passage which called them forth. Eliza.
beth Cady Stanton says, in her Eighty
Years or More" that she once wrote
DR.. Holmes, at the request of young
nephew of hers, to ask an important
question. Did the doctor really have a
servant who almost laughed himself to
death, as described In 1.-The Height of
the RidiculousY DR.. Holmes replied:
l wish you would explain to your
little nephew that the story of the poor
fellow who almost died laughing was
kind of dream of mine, and not real
thing that happened, any more than
that an old woman lived in shoe, and
had SO many children she didn't know
what to do. or that Jack climbed the
beanstalk and found the giant who
lived at the top of it.
You can explain to him what ia
meant by Imagination, and thus turn
my youthful rhymes into text for a
discourse worthy of the Concord
School of Philosophy. have not my
poems by me, but remember that
"The Height of the Ridiculous" ended
with this verse:
Ten days and nights, with sleepless eyer
watched that wretched man,
And since, never dare to write
AS funny as / can. q.
But tell your nephew he mustn't cry
about 1t, any more than because geese
so barefoot, and bald eagles have no
nightcaps.
