Iment retaining all of the evil of both white and red men and none of the
 good of either.
 i In justice to scattering few hard-
 working prospectors and mine owners
 now trying to discover what the west
 coast of Vancouver Island was made
 for, the above statement should perhaps
 be qualified. There are numerous mines along the west coast, and several
 hundred thousand good American dol
 lars have been lost for ever in an; en-
 deavor to make producers of them One of the finest of these Col. Sellers pro- positions was largely financed by Port Hand people. It is a copper mine To- cated on one of the numerous offshoots 1 of Barclay Sound The Wharf building
 and bucket tramway are all in excel
 lent condition, but the mine is oreless
 and the promoter is in the penitentiary
 The Government, the Catholics and the Presbyterians have spent consider ! able money in schools and churches for educating and Christianizing the West
 Coast Indians, but the results have been
 far from satisfactory. All of the reli-
 zion that can be forced of an Indian in
 this country does not seem to diminish
 his love for lying or stealing, and the morals of both sexes ars shocking.
 The girls, born into the world with a
 handicap of environment and blood, are
 taken up by the well-meaning but
 misguided church people and taught just enough to make them un- derstand that there is higher civiliza-f tion and better life than that which they are leading. Their i1ltellects, not
 exactly dwarfed, but through centuries
 of tradition and breeding diverted into
 channels which run not with ours, soon
 enable them to understand that an inn Ipenetrable wall of caste bars them from
 mingling closely with the better
 civilization of the outside world.
 l Education has momentari1y drawn
 back the curtain revealing to them the joys of a civilization which is not for them. It has created in their hearts
 deep longing for something better,
 which they know full well can never be theirs. They return from the schools to the smoke and dirt and squalor in which they were bred, and realizing the
 hopelessness of ever in their brief life time improving conditions there, and all
 so realizing the equal hopelessness of breaking into the society of the pale faces and living as they do, their weak minds do not wrestle long with the problem, and they generally go to the devil on the run.
 Perhaps after all, it is blessing that | they are dying off as rapidly as they are, for the civilization and religion of the white man have shattered many an lidol for them, and left nothing in re- turn but deep unsatisfied longing, that can never be appeased so long as so- ciety draws the color line. The many thousands which are annually wasted
 on the religious and educational institu- tions on this island would do a vast amount of good among the suffering poor of our cities, and there it would be appreciated. Here it does no good and lit is not appreciated.-

s. MERsIcK CRITICALLY ILL.
Was Resting a Little More Comforts hlY Late Last Night.

Was Resting a Little More COmforta- ply Late Last Night. Hon. Charles s. Mersick is very seri- |ously i'll at his residence, 1215 Chapel |street, where he is being attended by Dr. J. P. c. Foster, who has called in pr. Frank H. Whittemore several times for consultation.
 Mir Mersick is suffering from organic heart disease, and he is in a very criti- lcal condition. He has been a sufferer from this complaint for several years, but nothing serious developed until last "Wednesday. At that tint he had a sudden collapse, from which it was feared by his friends he would not lrally.
 For several years Mir Mersick has been in poor health, suffering a great Ideal from impaired digestion, which has gradually weakened the action of the heart. The past winter was spent abroad by MT. Mersick, travelling through Europe with his daughter. On
 his return from his trip the condition lof his health was greatly improved, and he seemed much benefited by his vacation. Immediately after his return he took up his work with renewed strength, and has remained at it con-
 stantly until the attack last Wednes- 1 day. MT. Mersick is one of the most prom 1 inent business men in New Haven. He
 has held the offices of city treasurer,
 state treasurer and other important offices. He is also president of the
 Merchants bank and the head of c. s.
 Mersick & Co., and has always been lvery active and influential in all finan- lcial and business enterprises in the lefty. For many years his work has | been sedentary and confining, and has gradually worn on his physical stan1- ina, so that his constitution is very sus- ceptible to such attacks.
 | At 11:30 last night Dr. Foster stated that his patient was somewhat improv- ed and was resting quite comfortably.

Informal Reception Given to Lester
 Mclean.
 The mems meeting at the Y. M. c. A. yesterday afternoon was addressed by Rev. F. H. L. Hammond, who spoke lon "In Exchange for Life" passing his remarks on a. portion of the twenty sixth verse of the sixteenth chapter of Matthew, What shall a man give in exchange for his soul?" He stated that many are exchanging their honor, rep utation and souls for money or the pleasures which are temporary. Eter- nal life is possible so long as there is a chance to come in contact with the au- thor of life.
 Preceding the address Mrs. Arthur B. Morrell sang two solos, "A Dream of Paradise" and "Over the Stars There is Rest" She played her own accompa- lniments and sang with much effect. At the close of the service a small com lpany gathered in the parlors of the building to meet informally Lester Me- Lean, who is to be the representative | of the Hartford and New Haven asso- citations in Japan. MT. Mclean is now spending several weeks in New Haven | in preparation for his work in Japan, which he begins in the fall.

THE SILENCE OF BUTTERFLIES

THE SILENCE OF BUTTERFLIES. After all, the chief charm of this race | of winged flowers does not lie in their varied and brilliant beauty, nor yet in their wonderful series of transfornna- l tions, in their long and sordid cater pillar life. their long slumber in the chrysalis, or the very brief period which l Compromises their beauty, their love-
 making, their parentage and their death. Nor does it lie in the fact that
 we do not certainly know whether they have in the caterpillar shape the fac- ulty of sight, or not, and do not even know the precise use of their most con- | spicuous organ In maturity, the anten-
 nae Nor does it consist in this that of
 all created things have furnished man
 with the symbol of his own immor- tality. It rather lies in the fact that
 with all their varied life and activity, lthey represent an absolutely silent
 world All the vast array of
 modern knowledge has found no butter-
 fly which murmurs with an audible
 voice, and only a very few species their wings Darwin first observing
 which can even audibly click or rustic
 with their wings; Darwin first ob- serving these in South America. land others recording them at long in tervals of years in Europe, and finally, I in the United States. MT. Scudder has
 not only detected a soft sound in one
 Tor two cases. proceeding from the
 wings and sounding like the faint rust | ling of sandpaper, but he hazards the
 opinion that many of the quivering or
 waving motions of the wing of these
 bright creatures, although inaudible to
 us, may be accompanied by sounds
 which the butterflies themselves or their 1 kindred might hear.-T. w. Hig-
