FAILURE OF 4 BOSTON NOTION.

Boston has had a notion that if drunkards were arrested they wouldn't drink so much, but she has learned that the craving for drink is stronger than the fear of arrest and punishment. For many years the number of arrests in Boston for drunkenness has been relatively far greater than that in any other large city in the country, and the city has the reputation of being un- commonly severe in its treatment of this vice. Its plan of suppression by arrest has had a long trial, but with the result that there are just as many arrests as before. Old drinkers do not cease the habit, and new drinkers are not deterred. The number of recom- mitments for drunkenness annually exceeds the number of first commit ments, while the records of the "rounders" are amazing. It is very evident that police activity cannot make community one of abstainers. and, on the other hand, as the Boston Evening Transcript points out, ''indis- crinlinate repression by aid of prevail ing methods may work positive harm. About 43 per cent. of the persons an- nually committed to penal institutions for drunkenness in this commonwealth are first offenders; that is, have never before been sentenced for this offence. In the discharge of our bounden duty to protect these unfortunates against themselves we force them into close re- Iations with the most loathsome and depraved beings; we begin their refor- nation by declaring them to be what they are not-criininals."

 and confusion. was to be decided with in five seconds.
 Hello, old lady" said. in the tone she had always heard me use and at the same time I stroked her fur very gently. The effect was reassuring. Very slowly the tail was lowered to the ground. and as I continued to stroke the fur, the animal stretched herself with an unmistakable air of cOntentment. Now for the next step. Gently worked my hand forward. until I could grasp one of the babies, and gently l loosened his hold on his mother, and drew him rom the burrow. Carefully l arose to my feet, and once clear of the mouth of the burrow, set off home, at a rather inn moderate pace. to photograph the infant skunk. and to make notes on him at leisure. Within an hour returned to the bur SOW. and by this time the little skunk was hungry and giving vent to strange, rather shrill, vibrstory squeaks. l had no desire to tempt Providence again so soon, so set the little fellow on the ground near the den and, retiring to a respectful distance. awaited develop ments. The cries of the baby increased when he found himself on the cold ground. and in a moment the weasel like head of the mother appeared at the entrance of the burrow. She sniffed right and left, and then came out to look for the crying infant. She soon saw him, and, advancing, with her peculiar waddling gait. picked him up by the skin of his neck with her teeth, and backed into the burrow with him. The next time I visited the den found the little family much further from the opening, and it was with some difficulty that I succeeded in getting hold of one of the children. When did get one out. I placed him at some dis tance from the entrance, and, instead of going away, remained near thS hole until the mother came forth to ind him. Then was my opportunity, and, putting in my hand, brought out the ress of the babies, five in all, and while the mother was busy with them quick ly blocked the far end of the hole with stones. Had I not done this, the old skunk might have spoiled all future chance for observation by carrying the little ones far back out of reach. As it was, visited the family daily for weeks photographing the little ones at all stages of their development, and mak- ing notes which I hope to publish in a future article of this series. The noth- CT became more and more easy to ap- proach. and before the end of a fort night she would allow me to pat her and scratch her head. Finally, when I would .ake the little ones away from her. she would come straight from the burrow and pull them out of my hands

NOT GOOD FARMERS.

There is not little prideful chortlfng in Kansas over the failure of the east ern college boys to hold their own with other workers in the western wheat fields. Thus the Kansas City Journal says: A Sicture of those eastern col- lege men at work in the Kansas fields would have revealed the pale faces and dropping forms of young fellows who bore in their whole demeanor 8 great yearning to get back to mamma. It would have shown some real men of the West-farmer lads of hard muscles, clear eyes and high foreheads-lookin with deep eommiseration upon the make-believe toilers of the East who came so joyously to rake the meadow sweet with hay, and who beat the hay in wilting. The momentary heroism of the football field is something far dif- ferent from the sustained heroism re- quired in the boy who uncomplainingly pitches wheat from header box under a blistering sun through the nvelong day. A lusty college chap from New York applied for help at Topeka in making his way home. saying that he had played out' after two days in a harvest field. A Topeka high school boy, not to be compared physically with the New York giant, commenced in Ok lahoma, followed the harvest through Kansas to the Nebraska line, saved s1O9, hardened lis muscles until he is steel and hickory. and will come home to school and fine clothes and pretty girls as brown as an Indian.
 And so forth and so on. We don't know just what the slump Of the east ern college boys in the western harvest means, but it undoubtedly means some thing. Perhaps it means that they are not farmers.

T IRISH WHISK ET.

Is it possible that the people in Eng land and the United States who think they have been drinking real Scotch whiskey with their golf have been de- luded? Jeremiah McVeagh, member of parliament for South Down, has come forward as the champion of the Cruis- keen Lawn of his native land. It is MT. Mcveagh's contention that it is not the quality of "the Scotch that has brought about it's success, but the can- niness of the Scotch distillers. He as- serts that the best Scotch whiskey is a blend in which only the foundation is provided by the land of the heather, while the bouquet and the rich flavor which make it palatable and popular come from the mountain dew that has been distilled across the channel in Ire- land, and that is surreptitiously taken into Scotland. More than this, he says that the stuff sold in England as Irish "ulShey TUT lLe lIlOSL part never saw Ireland at all, but is green Scotch whis- key, blended with some foreign spirit and favored by chemical treatment From the excise returns he shows that last year there was imported into Eng land something like 100000 gallons of cheap German spirits, and no one ap- parently knows. what became of it. Be- ing very cheap, some of it, MT. Me- Veagh says. might have been used for mixing varnishes, but the greater amount he feels safe in saying, went down the threats of Englishmen as Irish" whiskey.
 MT. McVeagh thinks and says that something ought to be done about it. Now that there is better feeling be- tween England and Ireland it does seem that England should have good Irish whiskey.

C4NADA,s NEW RAILROAD

Canada is a big country, and she is making big progress. So it is not sur. prising to read that she is going to have another transcontinenta railroad. The new road will stretch from Moncton, N
 B. to Port Simpson on the Pacific ocean. a distance of $500 miles. The government is going to help build the road, which, when done, will be known as the Grand Trunk Pacific. The di- vision from Winnipeg to Moncton, 1,S0C miles. the government will build at a cost of $50, 1000, 900 and lease to the Grand Trunk for fifty years, free for ten years and at 3 per cent. interest thereafter. Besides, the government will guarantee interest on bonds up to $13,0OO per mile on the, division through the mountains to the Pacific coast, and for ten years will pay the entire interest on the cost of the latter division. ..l.. 2 ssgs
 In his statement before parliament Premier Laurier estimated that the en- tire charge on the country, should no default occur, will be s1S,00O, ,0OO, an out lay that he considered would be justified by the advantage to Canada of indepen- dence os the United States bonding privilege, which he described as con- mereial bondage. This certainly would be worth something to Canada, and the new road is needed for other reasons. Last year the great Northwest territory fof the Dominion produced 94,OO0,00O bushels of wheat. 157,Ooo,OoO bushels of oats and 35.OOO.O0O bushels of barley. The crop strained the railroad resources of the country to the breaking down point and there will be much bigger crops and much more business by and by. ..
