i, Perhaps there is nothing consoling in the fact that the price of meats has
 been rising for six years, but probably most people think the rise has not been
 so long as that, The record shows that on April 1, 1896, beef carcasses in Chi cago brought only 6 cents per pound; a year later the price was 7.25 cents, and on April 1, 1898 it had advanced to 7,42; it fell off to TIP in 1899 and 1900, jumped to 7.75 in 1901, fell back to 7.62 on Janu ary i, 1902, and on March had gone up to S.25, and to 912 on the first day of the present month. That is an advance of 52 per cent. in the price during the past six years. Meantime the increase in the price of the live animals has been much more marked than in the meat products. Live beeves and hogs have nearly doubled in price since April 1, 1896, the approximate increase in the case of beeves being 20 per cent; live hogs have advanced S7 per cent, while the carcass has advanced "A per cent, Family (barreD beef has advanced 25 per cent, pork S5 per cent, bacon v per cent. and lard SS per cent. Rela- lively, greater advance is noted in the prices of hog than in beef prod ucts,
 Several explanations of the situation have been offered, and perhaps there is some truth in all of them. It is certain that it costs much money to eat meat now, and there is no sign of speedy change. There is talk of forming anti meat societies, and there are many who will have to be anti-meat even if they don't join a society. The matter is a very serious one for those who have to work for a living and who have been accustomed to consider meat the main foundation of their living.

The provinces look to the metropolis for light and leading, and they get it. They will not be slow to notice that Greater New York is gradually discard ing, so to speak horse-cars. We read that a New York line nine miles long which has run horse-cars up to the present time is now being turned into an electric line. Doubtless the change thus begun will make rapid progress and New York will soon be without horse-cars. In the natural course of events the example thus set by the metropolis will be initiated in the provinces, and most of the smaller cit ies will in time be running electric cars. We congratulate New York on her read mess to adopt what seems to be very promising improvement, and we hope her experiment will prove as satsfac- tory as she seems to expect 1t Will be-

ESTEEp KISSING,

What's the matter with Caroline
 Brooks? She's all right, in spite of the hostility of some who think they can "sculp" better than she can. Miss Brooks won fame throughout the West as ''the Butter Sculptor" and she has also seriously studied the sculptors art.
 When she was young she lived on a farm where her father kept many cows
 Butter making was one of the indus tries of the Brooks farm, and the daughter of the household was employ ed in churning and packing the product
 into mouds. Miss Caroline took to ex- perimenting in the construction of but ter pigs, chickens and other farm ani- mals, and finally discarded altogether the patented round and square moulds. She became very proficient in the shap- ing of flowers, fruits and other objects. and there was a great demand for the Brooks butter when put in this shape. Her fame spreading into neighborlng counties she was induced to visit fairs and shows, and there give exhibitions of butter modelling. She has since stud jed abroad, and considers herself good enough sculptor to compete for the $24O,00O contract for statue in memory of General Grant. The other day Miss Brooks arrived in Washington with request for permission to submit a model for the Grant statue, to be con-

A FRIENDLY HINT.

| The St. Louis newspapers say that | Missouri is now in full headway, and that new buildings of all kinds are rising almost as swiftly as did Jonah's
 gourd over against Nineveh, "au ex- ceeding great city of three days journ- ey," as the Old Testament tells us. But Jonahs gourd withered. although the
 Bible says there were in Nineveh more than six score thousands persons that
 could not discern between their right hand and their left hand, and also much cattle.''
 Now, in the great city on the banks of the Big Muddy there are probably few persons except babes in the cradle and infants in kindergartens that can not discern between their right and left hands But St. Louis is like Nineveh in that it contains much cat tie" Nineveh was spared for a time, but was stricken finally. Will Chi cago's famous rival take heed?
 In all seriousness don't let that build ing boom become too sudden and too rash. Keep it within prudent bounds The Louisiana Purchase exposition will undoubtedly be splendid triumph while it lasts. We all hope so, and sincerely believe it will be. But great triumphs are almost inevitably followed by great reaction. In every city in which worlds fair has been held there was stupendous building boom, which was not held within sagacious limi- taIlons, and d lamentaDie slump after the end of the huge show, and the era of depression lasted for years. Such was the experience of London and Of Paris. The French capital suffered more than once. Paris has held more universal exhibitions than any other capital, and it has gone through more reactions than any other. Vienna and Philadelphia, Chicago and Buffalo know full well the troubles which follow a worlds fair building boom. New York has fortunately escaped sorrows of that sort because it has never acted the part of host at a colossal exposition for the nations of the earth.

What do l care for dafIodils, And mornings -glories, too? The spronting green potato plants Are gladsome to my view. feel no thrills at seeing how The crocus buds and blows, Give me the joyous garden where The early onion grows. Give me the ruddy radish; let Me know that it is mine, And you may have the pleasure of The bug collecting vine. Who cares for thoughtful pansies, which Among the grasses sigh? The rhubarb plant is ribald with A prophecy of pie. Why finger by the lilac bush, Or sniff the violet? The fair tomato plant is up And ready to be set Spring has her blossoms-some are fair, And some are falrer still, And fairest is the bean bloom, which Is flashing on the hill.

10, THE POOR IADf<iN.

| The case of Mariana Miranda is at
 tracting a little attention, put as h1 is only a poor Indian it doesn't make
 much difference what is done to him. He lives in California. and four years ago he was convicted of murder and
 sentenced to serve twelve years in
 prison. Six months after the conviction
 1t was learned that Miran6p was inno- cent. The real murderer made death bed confession showing, beyond a doubt, that the Indian hal beer wrong fully accused and unjustly condemned Put Mariana Miranda aas only just succeeded in getting out of prison and ta propably considers hin,se,f lucky that he didn't have to sefYa the whole tNtlve years for crime he didn't com init. While waiting three years ana a half for action on his petitisr for re- lease be was compelled to W nix in the prison jute mill. Finally the pardon came, though there was no crime for which to pardon the man, ani Mirando leit the prison. he State gave hlm cheap suit of clothes, S5, and T railroad ticket. He had been very patient un' der bondage and servitude. and went away from the prison without q bitter pord eo,, anyone
 Such performance as this is we'll calculated to increase respect for Cali fornia justice,
