to look at the Golden Dawn Springs

at Yosemite created great excite

to see nothing more than a very
black negro. He WIS accompanied

onstrates that a we'll managed sugar-caue
factory, working on pro6l-sharing lines, is a
safe and remunerntive colonial investment,
even in times of low prices provided an ade-
quate supply of canes is available, is very
opportune in view of the fact that the
prospects of the sugar-growiug colonies after
the war will be much brighter, as a result
of the changed opinion at home in regard to
the Empire. The article in question goes

of the concern, it is noted that, after the

DICKENS AND THE WAR.

If we turn TO Dickens and consider his
general attitude towards life, and especially
towards the political problems it includes,
we shall find, | think, how very far we have
travelled from The sanity that characterised
him. Dickens most emphatically would not
have approved or assented to the manner
and conduct Of this, the greatest campaign
we ever undertook, and yet he WAS, beyond
all question, an optimist. He was, in fact,
the most profound optimist of his time-a
time when men believed in an inevitable, nay,
inexorable improvements; when the Spence.
rian view of evolution, with its transmission
Of acquired characteristics, held the field,
and when even Tenneyson committed him
self to the mechanical conception of progress
as q thing that was quite unavoidable and
independent of mani
"Yet I doubt not through the ages one
Increasing purpose runs,
And the thoughts of mon are widened
With the progress of the suns"
I rather think that the war, with it's ap-
palling atrocities, its re-emergence of the
primitive and british in man, and it's swift
reversion to type, has dealt that particular
superstition its coup de grace. The opti-
mism which believed in "something not our
selves that makes for righteousness is dead.
But the older, saner, and far healthier opti.
mism that animated Dickens throughout
his life. have we not lost that also? Dick
ems remember, did not share the mid Vic
torian belief in an evolution that was indie
pendent of the human will and that had
rothing to do with human v~olition. His
faith was in m nature, and it was a

SHINING AND WEAVING PAPER.

The heavy demand for hemp, fax, jute and
cotton TO meet the requirements for NUM-
tons has been responsible for active attempts
to discover an efficient and cheap substitute
capable of fulfilling the ordinary demands of
Paper at once suggests itself;
but the spinning and weaving OF wood-pulp
have always presented difficulties which ap-
peared to be insurmountable. Naturally The
substitute must he produced at q very low
figure, in order to enable it to compete COM
mercially with the genuine article. The
utiIisation of paper in this field is by no
means Of recent date, as the Chinese and
Japanese have for centuries been most inge-
NOUS in the uses to which they have applied
it. A notable illustration is The employment
by the japanese of their strong Broussonetia
paper as Il substitute for string and rope, it be-
ing twisted into short lengths to serve this
purpose. The Germans have spent vast sums
in the effort to evolve a cheap aud simple
means of Spinning and weaving wood-pulp,
but they failed TO achieve commercial
success, because they could not de-
wise a method Of carrying out the
essential operations at a sufficiently high
speed 10 enable the product to compete in
price with the article for which it Was in
tended to serve as a substitute.
Recently a British firm, which since the
war has been engaged upon further research,
has %triumphed where the Germans failed,
having succeeded in pelfeciin9 "a process
whereby the pulp may be spun Mt a speed
four or five times in excess of that secured
by the Germans, and at approximately 1870
less cost. The process is simple. The pulp
is first cut into strips, the width of which
varies according to he width Of yarn or rope
strand desired. 1t is then twisted on flames
somewhat similar to those used in the tex
tile industries. Subsequently the epools of
weft and warp are transferred to looms,
where the material can be woven into prac-
tically any article desired, of any variety Of
colour or pattern. The process is now in
active exploitation, and should meet with
conspicuous success, in as much as virtually
every article made from jute, hemp, or fax
Can be reproduced in paper yarn. Naturally
the product does not possess the strength
characteristic of the substances displaced,
but this feature is sufficiently pronounced to-
render the articles of much commercial value.
The styarn'' may be epun SO finely as to
be suitable for the delicate formation of
an incandescent gas mantle, for which
purpose it is being extensively employed or
so strong and coarse as to be adopted for
weaving into sacks to carry grain and cement,
for mooring ropes for ships, and so on. 1t
can also be produced of such o texture and
such a colouring as to form q suitable ma
terial for neckties and other articles of per-
sonal adornment.

tains the concessions granted to the West
Indian Company, the Floating Dock, the
West Indian National Bank, the Electricity
works, the Telephone Company, and the
subsidies to the West India and Pa
mama Telegraph Company. The Speakers
for the Conservative and left parties de-
clared that they would nor vote for the con-
v~ention, while the Radicals and Socialists
promised their adhesion. It is thereby
expected that The convention is sure to be
adopted in the FolkethiLg, but if the Lands

rejected, the Rigsdag should be dissolved, and
