The killing of sharks Is encouraged by the Nicaraguan fishery laws, and there appears to be no export duty on any industrial product derived from them.

 ROME, June 20.--It is announced at the Vatican that all efforts to induce Pope Leo to receive President Isoubet in his official capacity have failed, and the attempts ct 8 compromise by which the president would be received privately have also been without re- salt.

Memorial Dav Proclam alton.

Gov. S. r. Van SAINT has issued his
proclamation designating Saturday,
May 80, as Memorial Day. The proc
lamation is as follows: ITO the SOL
dier, living and dead, our nation
owes it's life. To him we are indebted
for all the blessings we enjoy IL our
model republic; his unselfsh sacrifices
and devotion to the cause of liberty
are unprecedented in the history of
warfare. We can not too highly hon
or the living, or too sacredly revere
the memory of the dead. Realizing
this the state and the nation have by
wise legislation designated an annual
memorial day. On this day let US
show our love and gratitude to the
American soldier. Let US deck with
the choicest floral offerings the graves
of our patriotic dead. Let us rem ew
our feality to the cause of liberty and
reconsecrate ourselves to the institu-
tions of our country which these men
fought and died to save. Let us then
observe as legal holiday, Saturday,
May 30, 1903. I would suggest that
flags be placed at half mast and that
all factories, mills, stores, mercantile
houses and Offices be closed and busi-
ness be suspended that the day may pc
most sacredlv observed in every city,
village and hamlet in Minnesota

NEW YORK BIRTH RATE GROWS
STATISTICS Show That the Population
- of That City 1s Increasing at
Rapid Rate.

statistics compiled by the board of
health show that the population of
the city of New York is increasing at
a remarkably rapid rate. The births
reported in Manhattan borough alone
during the first four months of the
present year were 1000 in excess of
those reported in the same period last
year.
1t is pointed out that the cosmopoi.
tan population and the large propor-
ton OF foreigners in the city may ac-
count for the high birth rate. E. J..
Leoerle, president of the board of
nea1th, say one reason for an increase
IN the number of births reported over
former years may be due to the fact
that the health department now holds
any physician accountable who neg
1ects TO report birth. At the same time
mat an increase in the birth rate is
SHOWN, there has been falling off in
the percentage of deaths.
In 1900 the total number of births in
the city was S1,721, and the birth rate
IN IN each thousand of population was
So'@. Last year the births were s5,643
ana the rate 23.5s. During the first
four months of this year there were
reported an excess over the same
months last year of 1000 births in
brooklyn and of 500 in the Bronx.

AN INTERNATIONAL ROUTE.

New Form,

The Bagdad railroad project, which
was recently agitated by the powers,

to India, somewhat similar to the in
terna ional status of the Suez canal.

cause of the objection of France and
Great Britain to acceding to Germany's
wish to have preponderating control
over the route and also because Russia
intimated her UNIV wiilingness to have
her French ally cooperate in project
having German predominance. Over
lures are now being made to remove
this Objectionable feature bv inter-
nationalizing the foute, each OF the
interested powers alterna ting in the
presidency and preponderance in the
directorate. There is reason to believe
French and Russian official and fnan.

which, If acceptable to Germany, will
be the basis for an agreement between

EMERSON ON Man
THE REF0RMER

What Is man born for but to be a
reformer, a remaker of what man has
made, renouncer Of lies, a restorer
OF. truth and good, initiating that great
Nature which embosoms US all and
which sleeps no moment on an old
past, but every hour repairs herself,
yielding US every morning new day
and with every pulsation a new. life?
Let him renounce every ything which is
not true to him and put all his prac-
tees back on their first thoughts and
do nothing for which he has not the
whole world for his reason. If there
are inconveniences and what is called
ruin in the way because we have so
enervated and MANNED ourselves, yet
it would be like dying of perfumes to
sink in the effort to reattach the deeds
Of every day to the holy and mysteri-
GUS recesses Of life.
The power, which is at once spring
and regulator in all efforts of reform,
is the conviction that there is an in
finite worthiness in man which will
appear at the call of worth and that all
particular reforms are the removing of
some imped;ment. Is 1t not the highest
duty that man should be honored in
US? ought not to allew any man be-
cause he has broad lands to feel that
he is rich in my presence. ought to
make him feel that can do without
his riches, that I cannot be bought,
neither by comfort, neither by pride,
and, though be utterly penniless and
receiving bread from him, that he is
the poor man beside me.
I see that the reason of the distrust
OF the practical man in all theory is his
inability to perceive the means where
by,we work. Look, he says, at the tools
with which this world of yours is to be
built. As we cannot paakesa planet,
with atmosphere, yfvers and forests, by
means of the best carpenters or en-
gineers' tools, with chemists laborat tory
and smiths forge to boot, so neither
can we ever construct that heavenly
society you prate of, out of foolish,
sick, selfish men and women, such as
we know them to be. But the believer
not only beholds his heaven to be pos
stble, but already to begin to exist, not
by the men or materials the statesman
uses, but by men transagured and rails
ed above themselves by the power Of
principles To principles something
else is possible that transcends all the
power of expedfents. - # :.

State Aid for Schools.

~~ss~0e~s
State Superintendent J. W. Olson
has notified the county superintendent
and school officers that applications
for state aid, under the new law, must
ba received at the departmental public
instruction before July 81.
The recent legislature increased the
state aid for high schools from 81, 900
to 81, 900; for graded schools, from
$4o0 to $3.50; for semi-graded schools
from 5000 to $3.50; and for rural schools
from 500 to 1925. Last year 141 high
schools, 1l9 graded schools, 244 semi
graded schools and TAT rural schools
qualified under the law. Owing to
deficiency in the appropriation, how.
ever, only the graded schools received
the specified aid. Il 10 expected that
many new applications will be made
for the increased aid this year. :. :. /
H.. ~ REQUIRED CONDITIONS. :%..>
A high school TO receive aid must
have been in existence OF least one
year preceding the application, must
a1mit stud dents OF either sex without
