This a big country. The eontempla- tion of Woods county in Oklahoma will help toward an understanding of it's bigness. Woods county contains ap- proximately 2.7S4 square miles of ter ritory. being forty per cent. larger than the State of Rhode Island, nearly as large as Connecticut or Delaware. and it is capable of supporting larger pop uIatlon than either of the States named. The people living in the southeast cor ner of the county are nearly eighty miles from the county seat at Alva, necessitating a days travel by steam and rail to reach the county seat. and an outlay of scme s or s4 in expenses. The people of the extreme northeast corner are about forty miles from the county seat, while those of the south west corner of the county must travel about sixty-three miles to get to the county seat Two-thirds of the taxpay- CTS of the county have an average travel of about thirty-five miles to Ava. or one days time and travel and expense.
 Big county, big country. and the lat ter is still growing. What it will be when it is fully expanded the Lord only knows.

BUsrSESS IS B BUSINESS.

The indications are that some of those who so actively conduct the Christiani- ty and the business of the Young Mems Christian Association in this city don't thoroughly understand New Haven. If they did they would hardly feel that it is wise to excite such emotions as they have excited in the breasts of the local newsdealers and in the breasts of those who sympathize with the notion of the local newsdealers that a Young Mems
 Christian Association which seeks the
 goodwill and the good money contri- buttons of business men shouldn't also
 seek to compete with those business
 men in the businesses by which they
 thrive and are enabled to make contri- buttons to good causes.
 Perhaps it will be argued that the
 Young Mems Christian Association can't possibly do business enough to do anybody any harm, and it might also
 be said that if it can't it can't do
 enough to do much good and therefore shouldn't carelessly make motions that
 scare business men. The truth is that
 there is a growing feeling that the
 Christian Association has been quite ac- tive enough as a Business Association, and many are disposed to regard such
 activity as Dernieious and to feel and express opposition to its extension. It i is not yet feared that the Association will take to running factories, or rail- | roads, or both, or become a big Chris i tian Trust, but it is felt that business 1 is business, that there is none too much Of it lying around in New Haven, and that an Association which has for it's chief objects the doing of good and the receiving of contributions shouldn't do anything to hurt or even alarm the
 goose of the golden egg. Of course this l view may possibly strike some of the 1 imported gentlemen who are devoted to
 Christianity and business here as rather narrow and provincial, but they, with
 their greater breadth of view and their
 wider experience, should and doubtless
 will be able to perceive the folly of
 putting against local prejudice while Idepending upon local favor and sup
 port.

 Reader, have you ever discovered yourself carrying an open umbrella in the street, in a fit of absent minded ness, some time after shower has fin- ished? But you have never paraded two miles of thoroughfares with your umbrella up when there is not spot of rain on the pavement and the day is bright and fair. with not even a ray of sunshine to provide an excuse for your eceentricity.
 Suddenly-biff!
 A loud shout of derision. The umbrel- la was nearly knocked out of my hand. The remains of large caulifiower rolled from the top of my umbrella.
 For the first time ventured to look round. Imagine my horror at beholding that I was followed by at least twenty street urchins. Twenty mouths were wide open with derisive laughter, emit ting ear-splitting yells. I turned and fed Don't think that ran. o, dear, noi It would take more than a crowd of boys to make me run away. Yet fear that hurried some what.
 At last there was my house, only two hundred yards away! Susan should presently hear a little plain speaking upon the absurdity of purchasing pa- tents that would not work. She happened to be at the window, and saw noisy crowd approaching from the distance, with an open um-
