Employes of the railroad mail service
 are making a reasonable move. They
 are asking the enactment of law by
 congress requiring railroad companies
 to construct their railroad mail cars of steel, and to make them as strong and substantial as are the Pullman sleepers now in use. Facts cited by the mail clerks show that the mail coaches are built much lighter than the sleepers.
 The result is that, in case of collision or wreck, the heavy engine with it's tender at one end of the train and the heavy s1eeDers at the other stand the shock of collision much better than the mail cars and the common passenger
 coaches of light construction that are crushed like eggshells between these heavy ends. There is rarely an accident
 on account of collision in which mail train is involved that we do not learn of the killing or injury of the mail clerks who travel on it. It is admitted that better cars would probably in-
 crease the weight of the train and. might cause reduction of time schedules or a reduction of the size of trains, but they feel that the lives of the hundreds of postal clerks liable to be killed or maim- ed may properly be considered in spite of any increased weight or cost.
 It seems to be entirely proper that the
 railroad mali clerks should object to
 being killed or wounded and that they
 should think that a little money ought not to stand in the way of making
 them safer.

10 THE P0oR INDIAN.

f The Kansas City Journal calls atten- ton to the interesting fact that the high esteem in which the Indians are held in this country is shown by the fact that theirs is the only race not dis tinctively white which the American people will associate with on terms of equality, or with which they will toler- ate the thought of miscegenation. No American of Indian descent takes any pains to conceal that native blood courses through his veins, but rather we find that there are many who boast of such a possession as mark of dis | tinction and the most desirable portion | of their inheritance. In his annual re-
 port the Commissioner of Indian Af- fairs asks: Shall the American In- | dian remain as a survival of the aborig- inal inhabitants of the country, study
 for the ethnologist, a toy for the tour | ist, vagrant at the mercy of the state and 8 continual pensioner upon the bounty of the people; or shall he be educated to work, live and act as a reputable, moral citizen, and a self supporting, useful member of society?'i And the Journal makes this rather 1 gloomy statement: Exceptionally lpainstaking efforts have been made to civilize the Indians. The government l has saved them from extinction, pre-
 served their identity, secured them in
 the possession of their property, and wisely directed them In the use of it.
 Temptations have been removed from
 them. They have been guarded against
 their own bad habits, and they have
 been offered the greatest benefits of re. ligion, education and law; but there is
 not one officer, one agent or one philan. thropist who can report that the re-
 turn for all this labor, expense and care has been equal to the outlay.
 1 According to this, the Indian isn't g
 great credit to himself or to us. But
 he has had a pretty good time com
 pared with what the useful negro has
 had.

OPPOSES VEGETABLE DIET.


 London Doctor Says Healthy Children Connot Be Raised Thereon.
 Dr. A. B. Kingsford. in a lecture be- fore the Childhood Society of London, lis reported by the London News as saying it is extremely important that parents and teachers should remember that growth sor the most part goes on at the expense of development--develop- ment being increase os complexity in the structural arrangement of parts. Thus growth, when at all rapid, usually monopolized all the spare energies of the organism for the time being. There fore. much intellectual achievement or progress should not be required from the fast-growing pupil.
 Cows milk. the rough-and-ready sub stitute for the child's natural food, is, in Dr. Kingsord's opinion, "as likely to suit an infant as a ready-made bridal robe Is to suit a princess" ITO make all ySio Ol iltllA IS easy enough, and so is the synthesis of fluid containing proteid, fat. carbohydrate. and salts in the proportions proper to milk. Such a fluid could. indeed, be prepared entirely from vegetable sources: but when young animals are 1 fed on such a miserable substitute they rapidly waste and die However well, said the lecturer. vegetable diet may be contrived to meet the needs of adults all attempts to raise healthy children thereon seem doomed to failure.
 Recourse, continued the lecturer, must be had to animal foods. and especially to those containing good proportion of fat. this being the great and inval- able constituent of milk which is lack i ing or defective in quantity or quality more often in both-srom every one of all the patent foods in the market.
