MULES ARE TOO SLOW.
Uncle Sam Will Use Only Horses in
the Future.

From Vancouver comes the an
nOuncement that the department of the
Columbia of the United States army
has decided to do away with mules
hereafter and will use horses in all the
places where mules have been used.
1t is stated a bid has been received
from a Portland man Offering to sup
ply all the horses needed at $50 per
span. The contract requires the very
best of animals, free from imperfec-
tons.
1T has been found recently that the
mules are too slow to haul the fire
apparatus which has been installed in
the garrison, and they have been found
Inadequate to the needs of the team
sters in other ways" states the Van
couVer report. The change will cost
the government a large sum. The
mules will be disposed of to farmers
and others for general work. The
change will be made in about four
weeks
And so another ancient army tradi-
ton is rudely smashed.

 an Illinois Town.
 Clarlnda. la., IS homelike town, oc- eupying a beautiful situation surround ed by rolling prairie, with shaded streets l60 feet wide, well kept lawns, comfortable but unpretentious houses, an imposing courthouse and school house. an excellent hotel, several banks whose combined deposits exceed ST. 100000, and blocks of stores whose shelves are loaded with all kinds of goods, writes w. E. Curtis in the Chi cago Record Herald. When Clarinda was first founded in 1852 this was a bare prairie. Now it is a veritable grove of elms, chestnuts and naples. all of which have been planted by the hand of man, but they look like native trees.
 A square near the railway station was planted with several hundred young elms a few years ago. which are thriving beautifully and are an object lesson to all other Iowa towns. as they illustrate what can be done in this soil and climate in the way of arbor cul- ture. Almost everybody owns the house be occupies, and property very seldom changes hands. There are no advertisements of houses for rent, be- cause every one is occupied, and new corners are obliged to build, so the town is gradually extending in every direction.
 There are no saloons in Clarinda. and no permit to sell liquor has been issued since 1882. The drug stores are not even permitted to sell upon physi. clans prescriptions When saloons were allowed there was a license fee of $1.0o0. and the proceeds were all needed to pay police expenses. but since saloons were abolished no police have been needed, and the only pro lection the town now has are two night watchmen. who look out for fires. bur. glars and tramps.
 The taste and culture of the people are illustrated by the large attendance at the annual Chautauqua assembly. now in its seventh year. upon the fair grounds, which belong to the munich pality. Back of the assembly are eighty business men. public spirited citizens. representing all denomina- tions, who have managed the affair so successfully that at the close of the last session after every bill was paid and extensive Improvements were made there was l surplus of S2,200 iD the treasury

Wonaerful Financing.

How to pay the s50.000.000 for the right to build the Panama canal with out drawing on the government depos- its in the national banks is a problem for the administration to unravel. For the secretary of the treasury to call upon the banks to disgorge would lead to a panic, so we have the extraordt nary condition of the government being unable to use its own cash to pay for the canal route. The other alternative, issuing bonds, is not an unlikely con tjngency. Wonderful financing, lending money without interest and at the same ssme paying interest on bonda

THE TOWN BEAUTIFUL.
What an Improvement Society
 Doing For Hamilton, Ont.

What an Improvement Society Is
 Doing For Hamilton, Ont.
 Hamilton, Ont, is being made more attractive every year through the ef- forts of the Civic Improvement socie- ty, which awards prizes for the best kept lawns. flower boxes and gardens. says the Toronto Mail and Express. The idea is so excellent that it is re- markabie that it has not been more generally adopted.
 The natural tendency of all centers of population is toward ugliness and untidiness. To resist this and aspire toward the town beautiful" is wor- thy effort. We are influenced more than we are generally willing to ac- knowledge by our surroundings The power of beauty to cheer and purify human nature is immeasurable. Why, then, should all the natural beauty of a city be confined to its parks or its bou- leyards, which are visited only on rare and exceptional occasions?
 Here and there, 1t is true, efforts are made to beautify the daily surround iugs. In Toronto some of the modern factories are adorned with flowers and clinging ivy. For this and the conse- quent appearance of cheerfulness the public, we believe, is sincerely grate- ful. 1t is a contribution to the comfort of every one. The splendid lawns and the gardens of our residential quarters also appeal to public appreciation.
 But there are districts of the city in which the sun of beauty seldom shines. Prominent among these are the bust ness quarters, where the tiresome mo- notony of brick walls is rarely relieved by the presence of any green thing. IL fs here that the people spend most of tbeir time, and here 1t is that beauty and freshness are most required. In the more humble quarters, too, though there is many a homely garden and many an effort to catch an inspiration from nature, the lack of beauty is of- ten painful and depressing.
 Anything that will awaken an inter- est in the adornment of a town and stimulate effort along that line is a wholesome and valuable influence. By all means let us beautify our towns. and if Hamilton has shown us how to do It thoroughly and well we shall be grateful.
