Colonies For Regeneration.

England's new law for rejecting in
digent aliens who seek refuge on her
shores leads the Brooklyn Eagle to
suggest that the nations troubled with
alien criminals and irreclaimable nui-
sances may one day make a common
cause against this evil. We are deal
ing with the matter specifically in
this country and seem to be actually
permitting Italy and possibly other
countries to unload their criminals
upon US. England has herself been a
patient victim in this respect, having
system Of poor laws which furnish
a temptation to foreign degenerates.
The Eagle thinks that an agreement
might be made between the nations to
use some large island for a colony
where the hardened degenerates could
be kept under restraint and those less
demoralized given chance for bet
ter life. Some island of the New Gale
donia group is pointed out as being
suitable for the purpose. Strictly
penal colonies are not popular in this
age. but the regenerative feature of
this scheme should win the support Of
moralists and philanthropists.

President Eliot Of Harvard takes a
lofty view Of the question as to the
amount of salary a man ought to re-
ceive for good work. According to
him, the best man for any large service
is the man who has such a natural
taste and faculty for that kind of work
that he would take it and keep it with
out very keen attention to the size of
his salary, provided the amount is suf-
ficient to secure for him a suitable
mode of comfortable life and a suita-
bic provision for old age or disability.
We suppose this explains exactly why
President Eliot is content with salary
of only $4,000 year.

GOOD CATCH.
Young Fellow Wanted for
Burglary Nabbed by
Sheriff Hartunu,

A telegram was received Thursday by
Sheriff Hartung from the authorities at
Houghton, Mich, saying that Joe Clark
was wanted for burglary.

ton given was on a passenger train
ticketed for Dickinson. On arrival of
the train, the party was apprehended and
taken to Jail to await the arrival of the
officer from Michigan.
Joe Clark is about "a years of age, and,
while admitting that he knows about the
Houghton burglary, declares that he is
not the guilty one.

were not good and he threw the case out
of court on Thursday, but new papers,
issued from Justice Folsom's court, were
Immediately served. !.
A hearing, on the charge of assault
and battery and im%personating a U. S.
