A correspondent raises the question OF omit

Of the residence of the President and urges that
it should be omitted. Many will disagree with
him on the grounds OF both euphony and analogy

of the White House than simply OF White
House. As for analogy, may recall the
amples Of the Tuileries. the House in the

DR.. A. E. Shipley, F. R. s., in speak
ing of the extinction Of a number of

European beaver has nearly gone; the
European bison was represented by a
few wild specimens in the Caucasus.
The American bison was reduced to a
few herds most carefully preserved
by the government.
The destruction of the fur seal
threatened to soon be complete, and
the Greenland sealing industry was
now nearly thing of the past, SO few
seals were there, though 40 years ago
they were being killed at the rate of
100000 year. Whales were also dis
appearing. Only three were killed last
year by British whalers, and the
whales on the Newfoundland side
were also disappearing.
At the present time certain Norwe-
gian whaling companies had been &C.
lively engaged in killing off as fast
as they could what remained of the
various kinds of whales. These were
killed chiefly for their blubber, but the
economy of the whale factories riv-
aled that of the Chicago pork packers.

There is no denying the enterprise

grower at least has sought to improve
his output by the aid of electricity.
In the wineries can be seen live
wires, which run along the interior Of

contact with either the vine or the

be ben eficial. Experiments were made
with two adjoining beds of spinach. In
the one case, where the electrical ef-
feet had been tried, the vegetable was
ready for marketing at the same time

to sprout from the ground. This latest

sought consolation by gorging
themselves with food. In fact,

be handled with impuinty.
Next, Mr.. Hurd lifted off the lid

Hunters KIN nla Grizzly.

The monster grizzly bear that fol
years has been making many sleeplest
nights for the farmers, miners and
residents of the northwestern Trinity
region has at last been slain.
This monarch of the forest and
slayer of small domestic animals was
killed by Thomas Mcdonald, wealthy
mining man who has been camping
along the Salmon range in Trinity.
Single-handed Mcdonald, who is a
mountaineer Of marked ability, killed
the bear after a lively tussle.
The bear weighed 1000 pounds, and
