TRADE IN ABYSSINIA.

The market for the gold producins; region Of Abyssinia is at Nedjo Gold washers bring the metal in dust and nuggets from all corners of the coun- try, pressed into large ouills closed with a morsel of wood. The holders are so transparent that the precious powder is as easily visible as though it were a tube of glass. The washer sells the product to broker, who works it into circles of pure gold of about the thickness of a heavy tinger ring. These circles are not closed so that the buyer may twist them before weighing, thus assuring himself, upon finding them malleable, that no copper has been mixed with the pure metal
 The brokers sit bent over, in long files, with their small scales in their hands.

In these days of general microbi are constantly unfolding themselves before our troubled visions. Some of these, as given out, are without ques- ton exaggerated and comparatively negligible; others, however, are wor- thy of some attention. The dangers from certain methods sometimes em- ployed by cigarmakers were recognized long ago, even before the popular fear of germs had been arounsed. The lat est danger from this source is indicated according to the newspapers, in a warning of the Chicago board of health. which pronounces the mechanical cigar clippers in general use where cigars are sold. menace to the health of the community. It is a common practice for the smoker to moisten the tip of his cigar with saliva before in serting it into the clipping machine: he thus leaves whatever pathogenic germs his mouth can convey to infect the next conner. A continual series of such procedures can, it is easily imag- ined, make these little conveniences eX- cessively dangerous disease promoters. There is still further danger to be con- sidered: the infected clippings are not thrown away or destroyed, but serve, at least in many cases, to meet the de- mand for tobacco in some other form, as cigarette or snuff material, which are other agents for spreading infec tion.

MAN AND NATURE.

Last year in Venezuela alcne two million birds were killed for fashions sake. One London dealer admitted twelve years ago, long before fashion was so pitiless as now. that he sold two million small birds every twelve months. Three recent consignments to London included 10000 birds of para disc, nearly 500 packages of osprey feathers, 6,700 crested pigeons. $500 Im- peyan pheasants, 800 bird skins, 27O cases of peacock's feathers, 1.5O0 Argus pheasants and 800 various other small birds.
 fishing smack had lately a strange catch off the Eddystone light house. It was an enormous specimen of that rare and curious sea monster, the ang Ter fish. It measured four feet three inches long and three feet two inches broad. The capacity of these fish for devouring large quantities of food is something marvellous, but the peculiar thing is that they change the usual or der of things, for instead of the bird catching the fish, in this instance the fish catches the bird and makes a meal Of hin. Guillemots, seagull' and ducks have been discovered in the stomachs of these gluttons Of the deep.
 Among nature lovers in England a very pretty practice known as "Mary's meadowing'' is to bud wild roses in the field and let them grow where they are and to introduce stray bulbs of the rarer kinds in the fields and woods so that they may grow wild-Chicago News.

garity, impropriety. to inspire whole some ideas and ambitions.

In reporting the militia hill to the house with amendments the committee on militia presented an elaborate analy- sis of the proposed legislation and an interesting historical resume of federal laws relating to the subject. When it is considered that the existing militia statute has been on the books for no years, without further important fed eral action, the timeliness of the move ment to provide for the national de- fense by this constitutional means be- comes apparent. The constitutional right of congress to organize, arm and discipline the militia might be exer- cised without difficulty in such manner that the executive would find at his command. in a national emergency, a vast body of trained soldiers fit for duty on forty-eight hours notice. No such condition now exists, as experi- ence in the recent war with Spain amply demonstrated.

Louis Kauffield, glass manufactures of Matthews. Delaware county, India ma, after experiments covering two years. announces that he has discover ed the method of making malleable glass, long considered one of the lost arts. The manufactured product is not sensitive to sudden changes of heat and cold and may be molded very much af- ter the manner of iron. Glass manu- lecturers who have been admitted to some of the experiments and who test ed the finished product in various ways, say that Kauffield has certainly sue ceeded in making a product that is new to the trade. and when applied to all kinds of glassware may revolutionize the business of glass making.

in the price of American cottons has obliged the wholesale merchants to in crease in Abyssinia, as elsewhere, the price of q bale of this material serving as money. Immediately the price of coffee rose at the five centers of pro- duction, but when the native farmers reached Harrar, the commercial center of the country. expecting to sell their coffecs at the higher price imposed by the increased value of American cot tons, they found themselves face to face with the falling prices which be- set all the coffee markets in the world. This caused much hardship.-Chicago News

profits by such rate Railroad strik- CTS have learned this as to their unlaw- ful acts. Railroad managers will learn likewise
 By the time injunctions have wiped out favoritism in rates and suits under the antitrust act destroyed pooling tho railroads will discover that there are two powers the law can never permit to be exercised together if the law is to be supreme. the power to pool ami the power to make rates. Ii the railroads make rates, as they do now. the law can not allow them to pool. Ii they have power to pool and make agree ments, then the rates must be made by some other authority.
 This is automatic. If the railroads enjoy both powers. if they both make rates and prevent competition by pool ing they can levy any tax they please on the industry of the country. Rail- road managers will enjoy an absolute power over the prosperity of localities. the business of firms and the growth of industries.
 Railroad presidents who are only rail- road managers desire both these DOW CTS. railroad president like MT. Cas- satt, who has the instincts and scope Of statesman, sees that these two great powers cannot both be committed to railroad corporations. The weight and influence of the Pennsylvania rail- road have therefore been thrown in favor of the measure now in the senate, dividing rate making and pooling.
 Under the bill introduced by Senator Elkins. the interstate commerce com- mission makes rates and the railrOa dS can pool. Without railroad pools steady rates are improbable. Assign one pow CT to the federal interstate commerce commission and the other to the rail- roads and both steady rates and fair rates can come about.-Philadelph Press

The new Irish land bill introduced by the British government, just be- fore the Easter holidays, is an ob- viously sincere attempt to solve the most harrassing problem of the cay. So far the Irish members have not been violently hostile to it. though it is not likely to meet their approval. It is in principle an extension of the present land purchase act. It au- thorizes the land commission to take over the whole or part of any estate that the owner is willing to sell, and then to resell it to the tenants. But the assent of threefourths of the tenants must be secured. and the landlord is entitled to buy one-fffth If the property if he likes. There is TO compulsion in the measure, and this is what the Irish members want. They say with some reason that no satis- factory solution of the land question is possible so long as few lan1 lords can hold out against a sale. Yet this extremity; and it would be gonl politics, if nothing more, for the Irish to give the new bill time to operate. Even MT. Healey admits that it will do some good. Were it not for the un- usual conditions which long years of blundering and mismana cement have created such a revolutionary princi- pie as compelling q man to sell to private buyers, whether this is his wish or not, could hardly be seriously advocated.

Captain Schoeffel of the Ninth United States infantry, has returned to this country from the Philippines a cripple for life, the result of the per nicious activity of sundry insurgents in Samar island. What an entire Wesc Point senior class could not accomplish has been done by a few breech- clouted savages of Samar. Captain Schoeffal, it will be remembered, is the orly "plebe" of his class at West Point who never was hazed-for the simple req son that he fought the upper class hazing contingent one after another, and whipped them all.

In the April Frank Leslie's, MT. B. F. Blackburn, writing of the farming out of convicts as practiced in Georgia, says: "Of the 2.OS4 convicts, 1,145 are to private individuals who, in some instances, treat them very much as they please, desisting only when their offenses become notorious. Under the state system the convicts are well treated, and the system of allowances for good behavior shows rebates aver aging 25 per cent for ten-year terms, and even greater for longer time"

Juan Gonzalez writes from Santiago de Cuba that he does not see what use Cuba has for navy, nor yet for an army He thinks the seat of govern ment will be moved from Havana to some inland town-probably to Santa Clara or Puerto Principe. He reports that the non-political classes-the small planters. farmers, shop keepers, laborers, "the common run of the peo- ple"-are delighted to get so good a president as Don Tomas Estrada Palma, the most popular man with them after General Gomez. They will not concern themselves at all about what he does" writes Gonzalez, ''so long as he lets them alone"

According to the Providence CR. I.

According to the Providence (R. 1.) Journal, the health officer of Cleveland. Ohio, did not rely wholly upon vaccina- tion and quarantine to rid that city of smallpox. Cleveland was badly af- fiicted, no fewer than twelve hundred and twenty-five cases having made their appearance from January first tt July twenty-first of last year. The disease spread in spite of the usual precautions, but Dr. Friederich, the health officer, undertook a systema tic plan of disinfection with formaldehyde, twenty men being employed to go through the city wherever the maladY made it's appearance and disinfect everything thoroughly. Only seven cases developed after the twenty-third of July-two days succeeding the ap- pointment of Dr. Friederich-and the last one was found on the twenty-third of August. Smallpox, says the official who had such success in stamping it out, is filth disease, and is spread by a definite microbe that f1ourishes in un- sanitary places. In Rhode Island, says the Journal, most of the recent cases of smallpox have been discovered where cleanliness was not at a premium

Swiss prison statistics show that drink is the chief immediate cause of
 the crime and arrest of SWISS 31.7 per cent of the per COURTS sons in penal confine- AND THE ment. This fact has led DRINK to the formulation of EVIL. newpenal laws in Switz-
 erland outlined by a writer in the Blaetter fuer Gefaengniss- kunde as follows: If a crime is due to excessive drinking, the judge can pro- hibit the convict from visiting saloons for from one to five years. An habitual drunkard, in addition to his punish ment, may be committed, with medical approval, to an institution for the cure of inebriety: likewise a drunkard ac
 quilted on the ground of unaccount- ability. Any person who delivers to child of less than fifteen years liquor that can injure the health Is liable to arrest. If the same offense is repeated within a year, the right to deal in li- quors may be withdrawn. A saloon
 keeper who willingly delivers liquor to one forbidden to frequent public houses. will be fined not more than 100 francs, or imprisoned not more than eight days. Drunken disturbance of the peace is punishable by fine of not more than 100 francs. Repetition of the ofrense within a year is punishable by imurisonment for not oyer eight days or by prohibition to visit any saloon. The offender may. in addition, be sent to an institution for the cure of in ebriety- A drunkard who, after warn

ing, fails to support his family will be arrested. Should the offense be repeat ed within one year, he may be sent to the workhouse for from one to three years; if need be. also to q cure. One who, though able to work. tramps, or frequents parks or public places, or begs. or sends others to beg for him, will be arrested. If the offense is re-
 peated within a year, he may be sent to the workhouse for from one to three years, and if necessary. also to a cure. The judge is allowed the power, apart from any penalty, with medical ap- proval. to send the drunkard to a cure. If it is justifiable to send the idle to workhouse. it appears to be evident duty to send to a place of cure those who, by drink, are being inclined to

The Girls Letter Guild is an Engli.

The Girls Letter Guild is an English organiza tion whose popularity is rapid
 ly increasing and whose influence is said to be excellent. Now there is talk of trying the scheme in this country, but it is doubtful whether our demo- cratic working girls would take to it kindly. The bishop of Coventry is president of the English guild, and the idea of the organization is to bring il- literate and untrained girls of the working classes into touch with women of culture and refinement through correspondence. Each gentlewoman who joins the guild agrees to pay one shilling a year. and to write every month long friendly letter to any one of the girls who may be allotted to her. She is to take an interest in the girls welfare. her work. and amusements. and hopes. and ambitions. She must. if possible, win the girls liking and confidence. and do all that she can to advise her, to correct false ideas, vul-

In every state and territory in the union the courts and sociological work

union the courts and sociological work
 CTS find that one of the THE most difficult problems PROBLEM to solve is that of deal OF ing properly with clim- YOUNG inal youth. For the CRIMINALS. courts it is a question
 of the right punishment. For the workers for social advance ment it is a problem of the best method of building character in boy criminals released from prison and turned adrift upon the world. David Willard of New York, who devotes his life to car ing for this class of boys, points out in the New York News that the difficulty is not so much with the young boy, who can be taken with a strong hand from the streets or from prison and made to live an orderly life until his habits are formed, but the youth who has reached an age when his most vital need is for something more than mater ial assistance. He is too old for re- straint or coercion, and careful and constant supervision is absolutely necessary.
 It is frequently possible to have a boy criminal released from jail on pa role. When this happens he must be given work at once. Then the difficulty comes of building up in him the power of sustained devotion to his work and consequent interest in his future. The boy who naturally drifts into crime is the one who has led chaotic exist ence, living along lines of least resist anee, and that solely from day to day. This must be changed to change the boy.
 It is useless to trust to his honor; boy of this class has no sense of honor. Good advice is waste of breath, as he has no care for the future He has usually not even the idea of being square to a man who has been square to him. Loyalty is not in his list of virtues.
 The usual way to accomplish the re- suit is to win his friendship and work upon this to give him practical demon trations of the fact that decency pays. Moral suasion is no use, but self-in- terest counts. If he has any talent or strong bent. find it out and let it de- terrnine his line of work.
 Country life for city boy is usually a failure, so farm work is good only for exceptional cases. Soldering ap- peals to him but loafing out on a frontier post is not much better than loafing in the streets of New York. The navy is excellent, especially for those addicted to habitual pilfering or with a fixed drink habit, but the term of service is rather short to effect any lasting reformation.
 He needs a place which offers little temptation and which tends to culti- va1e rnethodical and regular habits. Chaos in his character can then give way to order. Many of these boys are now behaving very well as elevator runners. They are taught to stick to one thing. An ideal position is in 2 shipping department of a newspaper or publishing house, as it offers no oppor- tunity for theft and gives a chance for steady mechanical toll.
 It is a problem worth coreful con- sideration.

Professor Morris Jastrow, of the Uni versity of Pennsylvania, contributes to the April number of "Harper's Month ly' most entertaining account of the discovery of the famous palace of Ne budchadnezzar by a party of German explorers, of which Professor Jastrow was a member. This palace is of es- pecial interest as being the buildinp upon whose walls was traced the nys- tical handwriting that foretold the doom of Babylon according to the mar rative in the book of Daniel. Here about 53S E. c. lived the great Cyrus, conquernr of Babylon. and here, two centuries later, died Alexander the Great The excavations made by the explorers disclosed the palace in "a hopeless state of ruin." so that the de- tailed arrangement of the building has not yet been ascertained.
