A BoSTONEsQUE ACCOUNT.
IMPRESSIONS of the Club" by One Who
(Tarried for n Time in the City
of "CuItchah."

When strolled once along the mar
row streets of Boston, and noted, with
ia degree of satisfaction, that travel
ers, writers and cartoonists had not
misrepresented to me the general pre-
valence of handbags, eyeglasses and
air of intellectually worn by the ma
tives, was glad that was in Boston,
and had, too, brushed up my history
before entering the city gates, says a
writer in the st. Louis Globe-Demo=
crat.
I suppose the general booldshness
of Boston drives its people to eye
glass wearing, but then there is no
need here to speculate about this.
I expected to find lot of people who
knew a lot about American history,
and 1 was not disappointed. Boston
fairly teens with an atmosphere of
"once upon a time" and for a certain
money consideration one may secure
a guide to take you to one of the "once
upon a time" places, and tell you all
about it. And even when the genuine
Bostonese leaves home a modicum of
that leaning toward the historical goes
with him-or her.
In a wealthy st. Louis household
here is a good New England dame Wis
iting her daughter. She told me all
about the points of interest round
about Boston, and it gave her pleas
ure to do so. She explained to me all
about them, too.
plymouth Rock, you know, is where
the first steamer landed"
Eyes" said; "they were brave men
and women who came to the great,
new country then"
Eyes" repeated the good lady, grow
ing animated at my evident interest
and sympathy, that was where the
first steamer landed When you come
to Boston III take you there, and other
places"
1 thanked her, for love hospitality,
and admire local pride and patriotism.
And what matters it, after all, wheth-
err, even though one does live in intel
lectual Boston, one has neglected to
learn that the good ship Mayfower
antedates steam by many year? A
mere discrepancy this, in the mechan-
ical part of the story of it all.

CRUSHED BY MONOPOLY.
PawnbroI<erage In France Is Entire
Iy in the Hands of the
GOVERNMENT.

A recent rehch trial shows how
monopoly WORT even in the pawn
broldng BUSINESS. The police authori-
ties brought Suit in the eleventh cor
rectional court of Paris against a
group of persons who acted as agents
for variou5 moneylenders and pawn
brokers established in London. The
action waE in the interests of the Mont
de Piete jde Paris, the French Pawn
broking association, which is monop-
oily and/under government supervisor,
says TIE New York Post. Persons de-
sirousI of pledging their jewels and
other valuabIes found that they could
obtain much better terms for loans
WITH well-known London firms than at
thei state supervised establishments in
France, and, to meet the situation, a
number of agencies were created in
Raris, which undertook the business
of pledging the articles in England.
THE Mont de Piete complained of this
competition, and their plea that it
was an infringement of their monop-
oily was upheld by the court. The de-
PENDANTS were six in number Two
were sentenced to three months i'm
prisonment and 10000 francs fine each
and the other four to fines of 10000
francs each. Another defendant, who
did not appear, was sentenced by de-
fault to two years imprisonment and
5000 francs fine. The Mont de Piete
was awarded the franc damages which
it claimed as civil parties to the case.
The fines thus inflicted amount to
about 100000. 1t is understood that

EGYPT's BIG DAM.
viii Control the Nile for irrigation Pur'
poses.

With the laying on the first day OF the
present month of the last coping stone oil
the great dam across the River Nile at
Assouan the ancient land of the Pharaohs
sees the completion of national work
which is not only the greatest of its kind
in existence, but in It's beneficent results
will probably outrank any scheme carried
out in Egypt either in ancient or modern
times. The completion of this dam and a
similar structure at Assoiut will provide in
the Nile Valley a vast reservoir, capable
of supplying over a billion cubic yards OF
water every year. The surplus waters of
the river will be stored during the flood
season and then drawn upon for the
irrigation of wide tracts of land which for
many centuries past have lain waste for
want of of water. AS result of the new
system of irrigation there are extensive
tracts of land which henceforth will bear
two crops a year, where formerly they bore
but one, while the area devoted to sugar
cultivation will be greatly increased.
The Assouan dam itself is one of the
greatest engineering works in existence.
1t is no less then one and quarter miles
in length and it is pierced by $50 sluice
gates % feet in height and feet in width,
by means of which the regulation of the
waters will be secured. The total cost of
the two dams will be about $25, 100000

cTnERE are number of gentlemen in the
Ninth District who seem to be willing to
accept the Republican nomination for
Congress. We admire their courage if we
cannot endorse their discretion. With a
knowledge of the way the Democratic
managers have managed elections in the
district, it is astonishing that any one
should be willing to accept nomination.
With all honest election the Republicans
can win.
