FEW ALIENS IN SCOTLAND.
Most of the Inhabitants of the Land of Heather and Doons Ave
 Natives.

Scotland, according to the latest re- turns, is not dumping ground for aliens, says the London Chronicle. Only 1.o33 per cent. out of population of 4 ,472, 1863 are aliens. The number of English-born persons north of the Tweed, if transferred to London, would be hardly noticed. They number only 131,350, or 2.937 per cent. Irish people, on the other hand, aggregate 2o5, ,oe4. or 4.585 per cent, and patriotic Scots, backed up by police statistics, charge this remnant and their connections with committing 50 per cent. of the crimes annually recorded on the far side of the Cheviots.
 Welshmen seem to shun Scotland. as only G,673 were found there when the census enumerators came round. Mar riage is popular to the extent of 46. TIT per cent. of males over IS years of age, and fair womankind is appreciated to the extent of A, 4,277 percent. of like ages. While the widowers number 72, TAI, the widows total no fewer than 175,4o5, which bears out the truth there lies in the now neglected ballad of ''Three Women for Every Man" ... -,.. l.

Foreigners are always complain ing, and not without reason, at the difficulties of the English language. This is quite natural, considering how very different our pronunciation is from our spelling, but what must to them appear to be gratuitous1y adding insult to injury is the entirely opposite, meanings some common words possess in different localities. says London Gentlewoman.
 In the eastern counties particuluar- ily, many words are misleading. For instance, "there were several there" ,lmeans not just few: but & great number: ''shy girl" is a bold one; and some of the verbs do double duty with absolutely opposite meanings, notably that of ito learn"

by the layer of white ashes covering the ground and dead trees standing as ghastly reminders of the fire which has been gnawing at it's roots.
 A man named Gallagher was the first to evolve a scientific plan for the fighting of this soil fire. In advance of the drefghters he would blaze a wide trail along the front of the fire. Men with axes came behind and felled every tree and bush on the fire side Then came men with shovels, who dug deep, getting below the peat bed and throwing the dirt<as a rampant against the flames. This met%od never failed to check, except when the great wind swept through the forest and famed the fires into a see thing furnace.
 The Yale summer school of forestry which opens soon at Milford, Pa., where ways and means of preventing floods and fires will be considered, will find fund of acts and information in these fires, which have. made the Adirondacks one of the hottest places this side of the accredited confines of his satanic majesty's royal domains.

al and other pulp companies suffered extensively.
 There are varying stories as to how these fires started, some openly charg- ing that many of the fires were de1ib- erately set by Adirondack squatters, who had real or fancied grievances against the owners. Chief State Fire Warden l.. S. Emmons is authority for the story that the first of the fires was caused by an empty beer bottle through whose convex bottom the hot rays of the May sun were concen- .trated as in burning glass. The long drought had dried the leaves until they were like finder, and readily burst into flame. It was a. herculean task which soon confronted the fire fight CTS, and the silent deeds of personal heroism wrought by them, far from the stimulus of public applause, must be for the greater part forever un- known.
 During calm weather forest fire is dispiriting rather&than@i terrifying Contrary to the common idea, the trees are the last to burn. All that can be seen is a thin line of insignif- cant flame, advancing lazily among the dry underbrush. Occasionally a young balsam, the only tree that burns readily, will catch fire from the heat below and flare up into a huge torch for minute or two, but, on the whole, the flames seem amazingly feeble and easy to control. That is because the real fire is far down out of sight. The soil of these virgin forests for several feet down is composed of decayed leaves, which has taken on the con- sistency of peat, and which once ig- nited, burns deeply and creeps stead fly on, and on, and on, waiting for the rushing wind to fan it into a roar ing sea of flames, sweeping every thing before it.
 It is comparatively easy task to extinguish the fire iii. the timber and underbrush, but when this peatlike soil gets to burning it is different matter. It will slowly eat it's way for months into the green forest lying ahead, and leave behind a path marked

THE LOBSTER'S ENEMIES.
Fishes That Feed on the Sen Bottom Prey Upon and Destroy
 Many of Them.

{ '"The lobster" said an old fisherman, according to the New York Sun, ''has no greater enemy than the bot tom-feeding fshes-blac ckfsh, codfsh, haddock, and so on,
 ''They eat the lobster entire when they find one that has just shed its shell, when it is not only soft but pow erless,. and they may disable a lobster and then destroy it even when it is in fighting trim. Half dozen blackfsh, for instance, might come across a lob ster and manage to bite off it's legs and so partially disable it.
 "The lobster is agile, a quick and long jumper through the water, but the bIackfsh is quicker and it can easi- ly keep up; and the lobster finally dis abled, it quickly finishes it. In this way blackfsh might get away with a lobster of considerable size.
 '"The codfish gets many-very likely the codfish knows the haunts of the lobster better than men do. The skate, clumsy as it is, gets some; if it can blanket lobster, get one of its big ;fap-like pectoral fins over it, the skate gradually works the lobster up to it's mouth, and holds it so while it eats 1t. The skate gets crabs in the same man. ner, and there is fish called the crab eater.
 "In fact, there is constant warfare going on at the bottom of the sea among the dwellers there in the strug- gle for existence, and the lobster among them has no greater enemy than the bottom-feeding f1shes.'
