ExrRAvAeANcE OF AMERICANS.

In a speech before the st. Paul, Mimi,
Commercial club James j. Hill said: '"The
nation at large is prosperous. We are
cutting a wide swath; there is nc doubt of
that. If we get down, however, TO a closer
examination we will readily see that the
nation is living p~rofiigately. We are sell
ing out our natural resources-eXploiting
them as fast as we can, without building
up industries and trade relations 10 take
their place when exhausted. Where are
the immigrants rushing TO our shores to
end up? Not on the land. We have no
more TO offer them. They must crowd into
the cities"
Mr.. James ]. Hin is a competent author
ity to speak upon this subject.
Every article which nature has bestowed
upon this country with such lavish lands
is being wasted. Especially is this true
with reference to the forests, which are
being reduced at a rate which will leave
America, or at least the United States,
bankrupt on timber in two decades, while
neither congress nor any state legislature
are taking IN adequate steps to pre-
vent it.
The immigration should be checked
speedily. II is true We have no public
lands left which are available for settle
ment. while the cities are growing beyond
the ability Of the country TO support them.

FROM harper 8 Weekly.
Germany follows close behind Great
Britain in the construction OF trans
atlantic liners. and recently there was
launched at Stettin the largest steam
ship ever built in Germany. 1t is the
Kaiserin Augusta Victoria for the
Hamburg American line, and repre-
sents the largest developments in that
type OF vessel designed for large pas

new German liner Is inferior to the new
twenty-five Knot Cunarder now urde
construction, but her tonnage (25,500)
and her displacement (35, 500 tons) are
somewhat greater.
Inasmuch as the twin screw engines
are designed for a sea speed of but Il
knots, IL has been found necessary to
provide for 1880 horse power, which
is far less than is required for the high
speed liners. The Kaiserin Augusta
Victoria is $50 feet In length. II feet

Trying Out of Debutantes.

FROM the New YORK Free Press.
1t is remarked that several clever
Philadelphia matrons have adopted a
willy scheme in regard to their daugh-
ters' entrance into society which proves
the town isn't so slow after all. In
stead of having an elaborate tea for
their hopefuls or some similar affair.
the buds in question sort of drift out
with no formal presentation whatever.
If they don happen to make good"
i'm this preliminary campaign they may
try their luck all over again, for their
families then go to the fore, giving
them the biggest c~oming-out party
their purses can afford. Two fascinat-
ing Philadelphia damsels of Cedar
street who have been out" for the last
two years-one of them having been
reported as being several times en-
gaged-will make their formal entrance
into society in a burst of splendOr his

debutante about them, and society is
laughing up it's sleeve at the new Idea.

ON the New York Evening Sun.

From the New York Evening Sun.
Once upon a time a grasshopper and an
ant met on Broadway. They had known
each other in the same town out west.
1t was summer. The grasshopper was
going to roof gardens and Coney island
and everywhere, wearing a picture hat and
a shirt waist that was peekaboo till you
couldn't rest.
The ant had on a bonnet that had come
to her through the will OF her grand
mother some years before. She was serious
as an honorary palbearer and busy as a
boss canvasman. She carried her lunch
in a paper bag and was walking to save
car fare
Fly high. little canary, you're bound TO

hopper. Winters coming and when

CHEEKY gas stove and my steady Job at

hopper. AN ace in the hand Is worth

hanson cab with "A wine agent.
Thus they parted. so winter came, Just
as the ant had expected. One bitter day,
when the ant was beating the vitals out
of her typewriter, the door opened and In
walked the poor ~grasshopper. trembling

Peaches that sell for sixty cents each
are now to be had at some OF the best

South Africa ard are grow in the Drak-

fighting occurred during the Boer war.

stores said that they could sell all they
got without any trouble. The peaches are
shipped TO London from South Africa.

to be bruised in transit. II takes about
