The American Boy for February

In the pages of the February
American Boy there is every
thing to please and delight it's
readers. The serials continue
with added interest. February
being the birth month of many
great men, there are timely ar
ticles on some of them. Of the
short stories calculated to stir
their readers are the story of a
boy whose determination to sue
ceed increased with obstacles;
a humorous story of a bear and a
fat boy; a story of pluck and dar-
ing of a boy of the Revolution;
the story of a hunt for the great
California condor. The practi-
cal boy will be sure to find mat

The situation on the Pacific
coast, where, in spite of their
protests against social equality,
they are continually inviting the
coming of Japanese laborers is
simply this The Jap comes tc
this country and takes a position
as a laborer, a household servant,
or a farm hand, and by industry
and frugality, for the nation pos
sesses both in a high degree, he
soon obtains enough money to
buy the farm on which he is work
ing, or another in the immediate
neighborhood, to start an oppo-
sition business as a blacksmith,
a contractor, or mechanic of
some sort, or possibly to attend
a professional school and branch
out as a dentist, a doctor or a
lawyer. There is no denying
that the Japanese are a thrifty
and capable people and the ex-
perience of California and the
whole Pacific coast has been that
where they once get a foothold
they stick and are soon the E.
quals, if not the superiors, of the
natives in any business or pro-
fession they adopt.
Some of the railroads in the
west are already replacing their
laborers, their train crews, and
their dining and sleeping car
crews with the Japanese employ
es so far as they are able to do.
it. President James Hill of the
Great Northern is one of the
leaders in this railroad move
ment, although he doubtless
would deny it if the accusation
were made. The idea of the rail
roads is to get as cheap labor as
possible regardless of the fact
that the japanese once installed
they will not be long in adopting
the trade union system, and they
have this unpleasant feature in
addition to American trades un-
ion traits, that they always strike
without giving notice. They may
be considered an exceedingly
dangerous factor in American
civilization. But the danger will
not come in the probability of
war at any near date, but rather
in introducing into American life
a race of people who regard us
as barbarians, who will never
assimilate with the communities
in which they live, and who, all
things considered, are quite our
equals in acuteness, but who will
never be a reliable factor in the
of American citizenship.

A large crowd attended the game.


 The dedication of the Futile Mem- orial chapel that has been erected in Grove cemetery will take place Sat urday next at ? p. m. The building will be given to the Grove cemetery association internationally and unre- stricted by Mrs B. B. Futile. The quartet of the Congregational church will assist at the dedication services.

 At the meeting of the board of warden and burgesses held Tuesday night Clerk Beardsley stated that ow- ing to a certain provision of the borough charter, which states that no warden or burgess can be a party to an agreement in which he has a pe cuniary interest and as Warden Ro- denbach is a property owner on Mill vile avenue and is also one of the claimants for damages, the clerk stated that in his mind the only legal way to do it would be to call out commissioners. The borough attor ney suggested that the warden could get the property off his hands over night and again come in possession ot it the following morning and thus get around the matter. Burgess Freeman at that part of the proceed ings broke'in to state that the warden was about the only republican mem- Der of the board who up to the pres ent time hadn't got something out of the borough and thought that it was his turn now. The matter passed of as a joke, but the :cc1EIdTKs of Burgess Freeman were intended for some members of the board who think that they are serving the people best when they are getting all they can for themselves.

The Hairless Dog.

The Chihuahua dog, which as late
as % years ago, was commonly to be
found in Mexico, is rapidly becoming
extinct. 1t is a curious little creature,
popularity supposed to be a cross be-
tween the prairie dog and the jack
rabbit. The animal resembles small
dog. Its weight is sometimes not
more than a pound and half, and 1t
has disproportionately large head
bullying eyes, and long ears. The
hair is usually seantY showing the
pink skin underneath, and from this
characteristic 1t has been known as
the Mexican hairless dog. They sell
dom show the usual dog traits of sa-
gacious and intelligent attachment. It
is now difficult to ind in Mexico a
purely bred Chihuahua dog. and those
that are found are often sold at prices
ranging from $500 upward. Even in
Chihuahua these dogs are rare. A
