"Conscience money" in Great Brit
ain now amounts to thousands of
pounds annually. The first sum no.
ticed was on March 30, 1889, when
$500 was carried to the public account
in consequence of note received by
the chancellor. The writer, with trou.
bled soul, implored him, "as an hon.
est man, to consider the money the
property Of the nation, and to be so
just as to apply it to the use of the
state in such manner that the nation
may not suffer by its having been de-
tanned. and thus to ease the conscience
of an honest man."

The Citizens committee boys

And from their good intentions,
May beam a ray of light
: twill shine DER all the County,
The country folks and town, ",
And all tax burdened citizens
will have their tax cut down.
They re after every fellow
Who hold a county job,
And all the cx-Oificials
They re after them be dad,
They'll send thcmall to Greenbank,
And learn each man trade,
The county will get wealthy,
On the Workhouse light brigade.
They have the Levy Court in hand,
And, going successful too
But with the City Council,
They'll nothingllave to do.

But strange 1t seems obe, y
That all are saints in Council,
And can't do wrongfully.
The Street and Sewer department,
VIII have to get their brooms,
Prepare to clean their cellars
Or straightway meet their dooms,
And those who had tile Pest House

Will need be heroes bold,
For when the fifty goes for them,
They'll make their blood run

Our Grand Police Department.,
Exceed Committees lore,
For when they hold a session
They bolt the outside DOR,
And none can cross the portals,
Not even city Press
They try complaints to suit them

And we may guess the rest.
But after all IL matters not
Which one Is on the spree,
All will be Investigated
BY the Reform Committee,
And when their work is ended,
All Glory to each name,
We will erect u Monument
Unto their noble fame.
But some one says problem,
COnfronts this generation,
Perhaps some reform members
Would need investigation.
Outlines a thief can catch a thief,
AT least the Provcrb says,
Solve while you may, some people
say,
Things can be seen both ways.

James Barnes Before Court Charged
With Raising Disturbance, @

James Barnes. a colored man, who neces-
sarily walks on all tours because of attic
ton, was in the Police Court today on a
charge of having been engaged in disorder
ly conduct in o street alley last night Po-
liceman Roper told Judge Scott that he ar
rested Barnes for causing disturbance In
the alley last night and indulging in pro-
family. Barnes had nothing to say beyond
entering plea of not guilty.
H. E. Thurston explained to the court
that Barnes was employed by him, and that
they were looking for boarding house last
night. He said he left Barnes few min
utes previous to his arrest and on returning
found him in the custody of the police.
Il asked the officer what the trouble was
and he threatened to lock me up, unless 1
kept my mouth, the witness continued.
Mr.. Thurston said he had never known
Barnes to indulge in profanity at any time
Judge Scott disposed Of the matter by ac-
cepting the defendants personal bonds
While Barnes has both legs he does not
use them in the way ordained by nature
The knees bend back, instead of forward,
causing him to walk on all fours, as stated.
He is known as the man horse" and can
trot and gallop, it is stated, in addition to
several other accomplishments.

Valued at $69, 4O7,O31.

The mineral production of Canada dur
ing the year 1901, according to the pre-
iiminary statement of the geological sur

$40 1884 600 was metallic and SIG, 2S2 600 nom
metallic. A report made public at the
State Department today from United States
Consul General Bittinger at Montreal, says
that these figures represent growth of
about per cent over 1900, a rather mod
crate increase and attributed to various
causes, among which were drop in the
gold production of the Yukon and pro-
tracted labor troubles in British Columbia.
An interesting portion of the consul gem
erals report is devoted to unusual mineral
discoveries in the northwest. Among these
are mentioned natural soap mine. paint
mine and several soda lakes, which were
found in the foothills near Ashcroft, B. c.
tits stated that their bottoms and shores
are incrusted with a natural washing COM
pound containing boraX and soda, and that
the substance is equal to the washing pow
ders in common use and will remove grease
