attached to a farm wagon and ran
down Houston street until they
reached point near the Baptist
church where the wagon was
thrown against telephone pole
with such terrific force that the
large pole was broken in two places,
allowing the wires to fall so near

Under the Chinese law, when
bankers or bank employees get
away with money intrusted TO
their care they cut all the flesh
off their bones by piecemeal.
Pretty tough you say. Yes, but
the treatment has almost cured
the disease in China. Our plan
is illustrated in the case of w.
K. Eaves' trial last week at Fl.
Worth. About a year ago Eaves
appropriated some eight thou
sand dollars out Of a Tarrant
county bank, without the con
sent Of the owners, and on
Saturday last jury of twelve
good and Lawful men gave him
three years. He took the value
of whole herd of horses or
cattle and yet his penalty falls
short of the one usually inflicte /
for the theft of a measly colt.
Often the life savings of the
poor are iutrusted to the banks
and those who carry 1t away I'M
lawfully deserve a dose Of med =
iCiue modelled somewhat on the
Chinese prevention. This is
not at all too severe, for the
man who betrays his trust is a
rogue anyway, and when be adds
theft TO it he becomes doublv
so. This brand of thieves called
embeZzlers, defaulters, and
"short in their accounts" be-
cause of the thousands of dol
lors involved which are fire.
quently "'planted" against their
return from the pen, are beCom-
ing too numerous for the public
good and 4 very decided in
crease in their punishment
should be fixed by law at an
early day.

souE FOOD FOR THOUGHT.

A British tariff commission has put out review of changes in the iron and steel trade of the world which $ interesting and perhaps instructive. While twenty-five years ago the British Isles produced fifty per cent. more pig iron than the United States and Ger many together, last year Germany pro- duced as much as Great Britain, and the United States far more than either. In the production of steel Germany has passed the United Kingdom and the United States has gone ahead of both. In the trade of the world Great Britain in 1876 furnished forty-five per cent. of the pig iron and thirty-three per cent. of the steel, the United States supplying fifteen per cent. of the iron and three per cent of the steel; now the United States makes thirty-six per cent. of the iron and forty-two per cent. of the steel, the British share being twenty per cent. of the iron and fourteen per cent. of the steel.

WHEN THE SNOW MELrs AWAY

The deep snow, which but few days ago covered the ground, hid many se- crets which are now being given up. As the brown earth begins to appear in patches. we find some of the results of the late severe winter. Birds which perished from cold or hunger. and which were not carried off by foxes. mink, skunks or owls, are now un- covered. and we find here junco or a chickadee, and there pheasant, a grouse or a quail. The spring is here again, but not for them, and yet no sign which we can read escapes the survivors, to suggest that the dead are missed. The "toot-toot'' of the cock pheasant is as vigorous as ever; the male grouse will drum with his &C., customed vim, and there is not trace os sadness in the clear whistle of the "Bob-white.'
 The white-footed mice, too, have been desperately hungry. this winter, and when the snow has gone, we may find sometimes, under log or stone-heap, a yellowish brown skin, from which the
