General at Montreal, Describes

Scarcity of Land.

Montreal, Nov. 15.-Major Allison
Edwards, United States Consul-Gen-
eral, who returned to-day from a visit
to his home at Fargo, North Dakota,
said in an interview: THE proper
way to describe the manner in which
the people of North Dakota are COM
ing over into Western Canada is to
say they are coming over in droves.
Among the people there did not seem
to be any thought Of there being
boundary line at all. 1t is simply a
question" added the major, "of there
not being any more land in North Da-
kota and the surrounding States, and
the people are flocking to Canada to
get good farms. Naturally the num-
Der that will come over will increase
all the time, and l may say the people
you are getting are the best people in
the west. They are we'll supplied with
money and are well acquainted with
the conditions under which they will
have to work" The agents Of the
Government located at different points
in the United States are prepared to

FEATS OF BLIND ACROBATS
Athletic Experiences Which Is As
tonishing in London College
GymnastS.

Many Of the gymnastic exhibitions
given in recent years by students of col
leges and universities of the world, cred
liable as they have been, are consider
ably overshadowed in the superior work
done by the blind students connected
with the Royal College and Academy
for the Blind at Upper Norwood, Eng
land, as was clearly demonstrated re-
Gently in the wonderful public exhibition
given by students of this academy at the
Crystal palace, this city, says London
report.
The athletic experiences that is being
attained by these blind students is GER
tainly marvellous and astounding, all of
which is attributable to the regular
practice work pursued in the gymna-
sum-
1t is an admitted fact that the twen-
tieth century finds physical training an
important factor in the educational
schemes for the seeing. Gymnastics and
drill enter, in lesser or greater de-
gree, in the curriculum of the schools
and colleges of all nations.
If physical training is considered so
necessary nowadays for the development
of the seeing, it is contended by those
well advanced in the training of the
blind that it is equally, if not far more
important, for the sightless, in order
that they may not be handicapped with
| feebleneSs, awkwardness and helpless
ness, in addition to their sightlessness
| The physical development of the blind
show vigorous growth, morally, men
tally or physically.
To bring about this happy and neces-
sary condition of things among the
| blind, the latter now have recourse to
| regular training in the gymnasium Of
this very unique Royal college in Lon
| don, where the course includes various
kinds of mass and apparatus work. In
addition, cycling, rowing, swimming
and roller skating are also systematical-
| ly taught.
Blind boys and girls of this insti-
tute, many children of very poor par
ents, exercise alike in extension, IRON

gether with a combination exercise upon
the parallel bars, horizontal bar and
vaulting horse, and execute the move
ments as perfectly as the sighted classes
The various machines used in the
gymnasium of the college are admir-
ably calculated to develop even the most
feeble of the blind students, so that the
pupil can proceed to the more advanced
apparatus, such as parallel bar, hori-
zontal bar, vaulting horse, and take
part also in such outdoor exercises as
cycling, boating, running, swimming
etc.
The instructors at the Royal College
for the Blind sufficiently vary the class
exercises in the gymnasium as to bring
all parts of the body into healthful &C
tivity so as to open the pores of the
skin, force impurities to the surface
expand the lungs, cause deep breathing
to stimulate the heart action, change
frequently the position of the viscera
thereby stimulating the flow of blood tt
all parts of the body.

BEGGARS MUST NOT DRINK
The Smell of Whisky Interferes with
Success in the Solicitation
of Aims.

There Is at least one profession IN

during the working" hours, is strict

come a shining light in his profession
if he drinks during the day. No pan

mass holds that "the beggar only wants

This disease, peculiar to rice-eating
people, was the enemy of the mikado's
army in the war with China, causing
the death of nearly As per cent. Of the
land forces. 1t is now doing great
mischief in the ranks or Oyama' s

disease that is the result of non-elimi-

blood and the first symptoms are dis
tinctly rheumatic. These are followed
by complete paralysis of the extremi-
