No. 51 HERE AND THERE SEWERAGE SYSTEM IIavi! we any-system of sewerage in Vancouver? This is a question of more than passing importance to the Citizens ol: Vau- ��������� cuuver. The sewerage problem is usually viewed as one of supreme .significance by Cities all the world over and Vancouver should be no exception.\" It was stated in no uncertain terms by one ol: the 'nldermen at the last: meeting of the City Council that \"then: was no comprehensive plan or system of sewerage iu this City and that the Kngineer was working at random.'' And further, \"that upwards of $400,000 was now Iving in the Bank to the credit of the Sewerage By-law.\" And again\", \"that *11.000 of Sewerage money had been. taken to direct a stream of water from its natural course into a box ���������drain. That this drain, while constructed last year, had never yet been used, and that the money was wrongfully used and foolishly spent,in spite of the great needs of the City for sewerage.\" Such a condition of affairs, if correct', demands drastic action ���������on the part of the Council, an should cause the Public to pay more than passing attention to the question. The Medical Health Officer has repeatedly warned the authorities that there was the. gravest ���������danger of an epidemic of disease unless some action was taken to properly sewer the city. In the face of statements of this kind the Council\" cannot afford to allow any personal attachment to the Engineer to interfere with a proper investigation. The present Engineer has been in office some five years and has had sufficient time to get into shape, a good plan of sewerage, capable of sewering the city. He has ample funds, there being enough on hand in the Bank, now. to do more work than could be done in two ami a half years. if spent at the rate of last year. The Citizens demand it, the Medical Health o'/^cer has given his warning, members of the Council have urged attention and in the future, whatever loss of health or funds may occur must be laid to the floor of the majority of the Council. ' ��������� 7 , 7- ��������� ANOTHER VICTIM. Once more we are called upon to stand helplessly by and witness a tragedy. A bright young life cut oft' in the twinkling of an eye. Another offering on the alter of modern greed. It costs too much for Electric Companies to insulate their wires'sufficiently to make them nndangeroxis. It is too expensive to put in a heavier copper wire and thus limit the current. It is an awful price we are paying for .our so-called modern conveniences. Poor, little 11-year old Clarence Miller is dead, that is all there is to it, No one will he found to blame. Possibly no one individual is culpable. ��������� ThelTespou-'\" sibility rests upon us all; We demand certain things and extend eertaiir jirwileges aniPjtheregulartoid of death is the price we^pay. Instead of placing''a preinltim/^ largest dividend, we-should encourage the development of the safe accomplishments of these required ends independent of their, immediate cost. The present system of stringing Avires in this city is little short of a crime and as long-ns it is tolerated will demand its regular tool of death. B. C. ELECTRIC TRACKS. The onestion of who was responsible for the repair of the streets between the car tracts was brought up in Council last Monday, and \\ Granville street and portions of .1 lastiugs street, were cited as illustrations. The B. C Electric stated that they would repair them when they got time. It is the same old story, the Company do what'they like and in their own peculiar way, irrespective ot any agreements which they may have with the City. The agreement place the Company to \"keep'.' in repair that portion of the street between the tracks. Some of our main thoroughfares are an utter disgrace to any eity. All along the track are great holes, hideous to look at -;-^and-exe.eedi-������gly---ns-t.o-V-eliiuid.ac..tra^ii.!7:Hp3v long, oh, long- suffering Public, how long will ye bear it? a ALDERMEN DEFENP THEMSELVES. No one will deny the aldermen the right to defend their honor from careless, if not bitter, attack by public speakers. At the last meeting of tbe Council, Aid. Whiteside brought up the matter of certain remarks alleged to have been made by speakers at a recent meeting in Grandview, charging the Council with \"Trickery\" and of having some \"schemes/' etc.. in, regard to False Creek. The position of a public man is fraught with quite sufficient difficulties and is thankless enough without having any unwarranted attacks made upon them. It Mill keep the average man busy doing his duty to the best of his ability without being forced to defend his character against, subtle iuuendoes on the part, of those avIio may differ from them. The Council were perfectly right in demanding that the speakers on this occasion state wherein the trickery, etc. lay. Who was guilty and of what were they guilty? No selfrespecting man wishes to rest under any such veiled imputation and is entitled to a proof of the charge or a public retraction.

Or. Lee De Forest of Wireless Tele- phone Fame Will Reach Here Saturday. Vancouver ia to be. honored by a visit, from one. of the foremost inventors of the age. Dr. De Forest is a not- ���������eil electrician and inventor of wireless telephone and telegraph appliances. The purpose of his visit is to establish, wireless telephone and telegraph stations here and to give a series of practical demonstrations and lectures on this all-important subject which is destined to revolutionize the commercial world and confer a great boon on so-, ciety. Will Erect Tower. Drr. Be Forest purposes making arrangements while here for the erection of a large tower for long-distance wireless telephony and telegraphy. He states that his company will establish plants for the manufacture of their oavii appliances throughout the west. One has already been arranged, for in Winnipeg which will employ a large staff and will he a central distributing\" print. The tower to be erected will be similar to that now in operafiorf at Detroit, Michigan, which is a-stee|, tower 350 feet high. It will be possible to send messages a very great distance from these towers, which will ultiniat������f ly result in a cheapening of that class of. service: Regarding the intercepting of messages by wireless, Dr. De Forest will demonstrate the \"tuning\" deyijc?e> which are attached to his instruments and:.^hich^tnjtke������nj^-int^0������PtJWfi$it terly impossible. The Doctor's n������me.r o������s devices for attuning instruments, etc.. have done much toAVard tlie developing of.the wireless systems, and the wonderful advance being made Iv this science is largely due to his effort and remarkable ability.. THAT -Ml������ TO ARRANGE FOR BULIIEVARDS The board of works and the Park Commissioners met Wednesday eve - nin'g to formulate a scheme to beautify the City by building boulevards and planting trees. It was decided to do it under the local improvement plan. The idea was first introduced by Park Commissioner VV. R. Owen, who has been taking an active interest in all park questions in the outlying dis - tricts. It is quite refreshing to find a Commissioner who was broad enough to see beyond Stanley Park. Much as we pride ourselves in our great park, we cannot afford to neglect the rest of the city, and now that provision is being made to accomplish this, we hope the citizens will be public spirited enough to assist in the work.. it is the only way in which Ave can have a city beautiful.\" DEVElliiTS ON MT, PLEASANT Judging from the extensive building operations about to be undertaken ou Westminster avenue and its environs, Mount Pleasant will be a busy.-'centre this /year. S. McClay ���������������������������will erect an $80,0ft0 structure oil his corner of Seventh and Westminster avenues. It is understood that a bank will occupy a portion of the ground floor the balance to be offices and apartments. J. B. Mathers has excavations under way now for a five-story structure on th������ corner \"of Eighth avenue, which will be of best construction. H. O. Lee is also ^excavating a corner of Broadway for a large flye-storey modern, block. D: B. ���������Harris is reported to be planning, a 'fo&evblotek- for the coraer of TeatU to be constructed this year. The acme plumbing company have under construction a large warehouse on Tenth avenue also. This, together with the paving operations, promises to make things fairly hum in that locality. We ha\\'e to record another serious car accident, and it was little short ol a miracle that it was not fatal in its results. As it is it Avas quite serious enough, one man being painfully i lilted...,. A-=heav.H������.joa.ile.iLdray. was, going southward on Granville street. When near Robson it was compelled to drive on the car track because the street at this point is being repaired Following the dray was one of the B <.'. Electric freight cars. A Fourth avenue car was approaching from the opposite direction. Just as the dray endeavored to cross over out of the way of the Fourth avenue car the huge freight car gave it a push from the rear, shooting it forward with such velocity as to,precipitate it into the front of the Fourth avenue car. The driver was thrown between the debris fn a most critical position and' narrowly escaped being killed. As it was he suffered painful injuries. Those who witnessed the accident agree that the driver of the dray ami the motormun of the Fourth avenue car were not to blame. The motorman of tlie freight ear claims he applied his brakes but his car skidded. Of course it would. A huge heavily loaded freight car is no easy thing to stop suddenly. It is almost safe to say that had the freight.\" car not been on the streets during the day no accident would have happened The fact, of the matter is the freight car had no right whatsoever to be on Granville street at that hour.. The city has an agreement with the B. ('. Rleotric Railway company whereby the company agrees nof to run any freight cars over the city lines at all. This agreement, however, is only on paper and like many other similar \"agreements-it does not count with the company, nor will it count until such time as the city forces the company to live up to the terms of its agreements with the city. In the meantime these monstrous freighters will plough their way through our streets, making the city hideous with their unseemly bulk and deafening noise, and ruining the roadbeds with their weight. G. N. H. BUYS UN WISE WW Agents on behalf of the Great Northern railway have been quietly buying up the balance of the foreshore lots on the westerly end of False Creek and around Gore-avenue and- Prior, streets. the \"Call\" was able to find Out definitely that nearly all the owners had accepted the price offered which was on a basis of $15,000 for each 25 feet of frontage. It is understood that Mr. Palmer. Professor Odium and a few others are still holding out. but even though it is impossible to purchase these now. the company will be able to expropriate and the pi ice paid the other owners will form the basis of arbitration proceedings and it. is exceedingly doubtful if any court will allow any higher figure. Ft may delay maters for a while but can scarcely benefit the owners to any great, degree. The securing the balance of the lots will somewhat simplify matters as to the final disposition of the head of False creek. It is expected that as | soon as the Great Northern agreement is ratified it will be an opportune time | to discuss the whole question of the! balance, and after careful consider:!-1 tion by both the public and the Council, j deal finally with it. thus permitting a j definite scheme of development to be I carried out. i ANNOUNCEMENT To the Readers of The Cull.���������We take this means, of telling you we have secured the services of Air. .las. .,!..

IMPERIAL INVESTMENT CO.. LTD X'VA Westminster Avenue. Phone 'UT,. OF INTEREST TO ALL . CHINA AND THE FOREIGNER. Exactly ten ��������� years ago the 'Boxer\" war broke out in China. This was a general uprising against/foreigners. The riots of the past few Aveeks are similar to those of 11)00. It is-a general expression on the part of the common citizen against all foreigners. Tho usual. vieAV taken in an Occidental country of the situation is that these barbarous Chinese 'should be \"put out of-business,\" and that the uprising is merely the result'of savage ignorance. This is entirely wrong, however, and a brief perusal of some of the causes' will readily dear the mind of the \"West\" as to the exact situation. It is well to again emphasize the fact that both the Boxer rising and the present riots are directed against foreigners. This fact is significant and should be carefully studied, especially by organizations sending missionaries and by Commercial interests. Why this dislike of the foreigner? This I Avill endeavor to answer. Having been in China during the ''Boxer \"Avar and taken part in it. I feel competent to at least give some reasons which, in my mind, are the cause of this hatred, resulting in riot and bloodshed. , ���������\" - ' In the firstplace the Chirfese arc \"ancestral worshipers.\" They\\ deeply revenance their parents and ancestors. The graves of the dead are almost an object of worship and are very jealously guarded. To them it is an alarm ing offence to allow a \"shadow\" to fall across a grave, and as a consequence, all grave-yards are out in the open. This may seem absurd to us. yet why should it? > We have customs just as ridiculous to a foreigner. It is absurd simply because it is not customary here, but to-them it is of vital importance and as such should be respected by all foreigners and visitors. But thi.s respect is not generally observed, on the contrary, our missionaries go there and secure a site through their government for Mission House and erect high buildings and. walls, irrespective.of what ever its shadow falls across a grave or not holding a supreme contempt for the \"superstition\" of tlie 'natives. . Another common occurance. which.is. greatly annoying to the Chinese, is. that the Missionaries are under the protection of their own government aud are immune from interference hy local authorities, and it often happens that a native will commit some offence aii'd go to a Mission asking to be taken in as a convert, he thus comes under the protection of the Missionary and his consul, in this way, often local administration of justice is defeated, and guilty parties ' go unpunished. Now/the principle of the equity of the punishment ��������� does not enter in here at all. but simply that a foreigner is able to circumvent the national authority: Think what an uproar would occur in Canada if some Chinese/Temple Avere: established here which was not amenable to our la\\vs and which protected those who had committed an offence against our 'laws, yet this is what actually takes place in,Chiua.\" :.-. Then again, tip to a few years ago7 the great coast and river triade ofjQhWAT^^ !y������iili^' lujrecent years, how- ever, these have been almost^Teiitirely\" su^uinfed hy steamships , operated by British and other Companies. Formerly there were lit- terally millions of men employed in this\" Junk\" trade, whereas now with modern appliances this number is reduced to .a minimum. Again, I ask. think what we would do if our trade were invaded in this way f Or. do we not at the present, seriously object to the \"Asiatic Invasion.\" and justly so. yet we are asking the Chinese to tolerate a condition whicii we refuse to entertain. ���������; Then there is the uotorious opium traffic, forced on the Chinese by the forces of Britain some few decades ago. At the present time the Imperial Government of China is doing its utmost to free the, country from this appalling curse. Tlie* most degrading of all the invidious vices to Avhich man is a victim is the opium habit. Vet it was forced upon the Chinese by the British for no other reason than to create, a market and to fill the coffers of unscruplous commercial interests. Now iu the face of these and other equally aggravating causes Ave assume to be surprised and shocked at the attitude of the Chinese. It is only because of her extreme conservatism that China has so long refrained from asserting herself and it requires no great, prophetic vision \"to coucieve that these rumblings of-discontent oiit ��������� the part of the humbler classes is a warning that the 'sleeping giant\" is awakening and it will mean a mighty upheaval when it comes. It will result in a re-arrangement of national relationship, of commerce, of education, of religion and of politics. It will be an epoch-ujflking period in the World's history and woe to the existing ionizations' if they fail to grasp the significance of the occasion andtreat this great latent power with indifference. '\"���������r,,- AWAKENING AT LAST. The \"Bulbeek\" ease is at Inst awakening the general public to a consciousness of the utter inadequacy of our system of dealing with offenders. The \"Bulbeek\" ease, which has caused this agitation, is the ease of a little twelve-year old boy. the son of very respectable parents of Haywood Heath. England, who stole ('.') a lump of coal out of mischief. He A\\as passing a huge pile of coal and picked up a lump aid was carrying it away when he was caught. He. had no need of it and was just doing it out of mischief. The value of the eojil was perhaps two cents. He was brought up before the police court magistrates and regularly tried as a criminal. His day-school teacher testified that he was a regular attciidanl at. school and of excellent behavior. He had never been in trouble before, as was conclusively proven, and Avas declared by his neighbors, teacher and clergymen to be honest. trusAvorthy and studious. The magistrates admitted he seemed to be a \"good little lad.\" and the police bore testimony to his good character. Vet. in spite of this, the three magistrates sentenced him to the'reformatory for six years and to receive six lashes from the public constable, anil in addition to this his father to pay $H.f>0 costs and 00 cents per Avcck maintenance during the period of the child's imprisonment. The magistrates who tried the ease Ave re Phillip Secrctan. an ex- sheriff. Major Farquharsoii and \\V. C. Renshaw. two large land proprietors of the neighborhood. The coal Avhieh was \"stolen\" was in a large fuel yard, through which the public commonly passed, and it is scarcely concievable that the little fellow dreamt lie was stealing. It is. hard to imagine that such a barbarous sentence could be passed by three intelligent men. The fact of the matter is that so sacred are the rights of property to some small-sotiled individuals, that they would send ten thousand boys to bell itself rather than that sacred right should be inifringed upon to the slightest degree. What had the boy done.' At Avorst lie had taken 10 cents Avorth of- coal. According to the strictest interpretation of Mosaic haw In- should only have been asked to pay for it. plus twenty per cent. But iu our enlightened day, four thousand years after Moses, we condemn a boy 11 years old to be publicly Hogged aud imprison him (Continued on page four.)

There is only one recognised religion on Mars and that is very simple. All are taught to believe In an intelligent Being who rules over all worlds and /peoples. Nothing more is taught. All know that their lives are open to the great Beitisr. To him they stand or fall, as is their daily attitude of life and thought. Apart from this, all people are free to think or believe as they wish, but no foblish, schismatic, public teaching is permitted. Friends may converse and think as they w������i������'i. but no country splitting religions and dogmas are permitted in public. In this way their is not the curse of religious hatreds, and quarrels common to Musselman and Christian, Orangeman and Papist. Hence lewer soldiers doing military and police work, as are required in so- called civilized nations ,on earth. However while at this subject, I should say that the M:>^i������n������ uuiver By several devices the sibilant sound- character was gotten at, one of which was the image of a serpent hissing.

The Story in Brief A syndicate of well-known business men of Vancouver have, by the expenditure of time and capital and the employment of experts, secured an area of what is believed to be THE BEST UNDEVELOPED OIL LANDS in California. This property comprises 20 mineral oil locations, containing in all 3,080 acres. This ground is near San Diego, which city affords not only a good local market for oil products, but also good shipping facilities, and the property is favorably situated for the construction of a gravity pipe line to the - harbor at a minimum cost. On this field, the geological formations, the seepages and surface indications cannot be excelled in California, and its value is the more assured by its being in direct line with producing areas, having identical formations. So favorable were the reports on this particular property, that, after a personal inspection by members of the Directorate, as large an area as possible was secured, and arrangements made for the commencement of developmnt work. THE BEAVER OIL COMPANY, organized to carry out the work of developing this property, is registered under the laws of California, to do business in that State. It is capitalized at $2,000,000 in ONE DOLLAR shares. There is no \"preferred\" or \"promotion\" stock, and the Company commences operations with its valuable property and plant entirely unencumbered. \\ All charges for prospecting, inspection and ac quiring of this large acreage, the purchase and installation of an up-to-date steam drilling plant, together with all costs connected with company organization, have been met by the Syndicate Membership. It is proposed to issue to the public small blocks ���������f stock, as the requirements of the work will warrant. The first of these is for only 50,000 shares, and. considering..jhe^yaluable^a^mts...pf jhe,..C������mrL-. pany. the price is exceptionally low. These shares are fully paid up and non-assessable, the management reserving the right to increase the price, without notice, on any shares that are not taken up. Later issues will be placed at higher figures. Don't Mistake Us We are selling thisstock at a low figure with the object of proving the value of the Company's prop erty as quickly as possible. When we have developed the oil in a paying quantity, there will be no stock issued to the public at any price. We are convinced that we have in this property and its development the best opportunity for great things in the way of business that ever knocked at our door, and we are backing up this conviction with our money. If you wish to have a part in this enterprise and to share the opportunity with us, now is the time to get in on ground floor prices. With the advent of our first strike, every acre of our holding will jump in value to at least $2,000 per acre. The prices now being paid in Southern California for semi-developed oil lands are sufficient warrant for the estimate that the Beaver Oil Company's stock will soon be held at a price far exceeding its par value. The Midway oil field in Kern County is probably the liveliest spot in the United States today, ali on account of the great oil wells recently brought in there. Lands that were not worth $5 an acre six months ago are now selling at $2,000 per acre and upwards. One of the new wells is producing $6,500 worth of oil every 24 hours. * > . The Official Geological Report refers most favorably to the San Diego district as an oil area. G. W. Magwood. Esq.. geological expert, is one of the latest to add testimony to the prospective richness of this field. After spending several weeks in the district investigating the oil conditions, he ^_ insists that_ this point is destined to becomelone; oJL the greatest oil producing centres of the West. Further. \"I have given ten years to the geological study of formation strata*, and anticlinals of the different oil fields of this State, and have been in every field that is to any extent developed, and find that the oil belt is continuous from Monterey to the Gulf of California.\" and \"where the big producers are. the formation follows the Coast.\" Referring particularly to the ground between Del Mar and Oiay (in which the Beaver Oil Company's land is situated), he states that \"the oil strata can be traced in a line approximately the same distance inland, and the conditions are evidence that there are great lakes of oil. OF WHICH THE GREATEST LIES BETWEEN DELMAR AND OTAY MESA.\" In this district the expert finds ail the favoring conditions, the lime, shale, oil sand, fossils, gypsum, sulphur and oil breaking through, to justify the belief of the existence here of the greatest pool of oil in the State of California.

We have repeatedly raised our voice against this inhuman \"system, and do not hesitate to say that we blush to own allegiance to such a civilization. Our penal system, as at present administered, is a\" relic of barbarism, unjust, cruel, and calculated to ruin the life for time and eternity. We convice men, women or children of some petty offem-e, and commit them to prison, brand them as criminals, make them expiate their offence by years of confinement, and when the poor creatures come forth, society, you and 1,- practically everyone, turn our backs upon them and litre-ally force them back into a life of error. If a person makes a mistake and is caught, there is one inevitable result, that is, lie is sure to be a criminal before we get through with him. The whole difficulty lies in our practice of \" Punishment'' in place of \"Correction.\" It is easier, therefore we cling to it like an inebriate to his.bottle. -. . ���������-,:.,, . - HUGHES GETS JUDGESHIP. The appointment of Governor Charles E. Hughes, of New York, to a seat on the Supreme Court Bench of the United States is an occurrance of more than passing interest. Governor Hughes has proven himself in politics to be stronger than his party and greater than his surroundings. Lie is a man that is an acquisition to the t'ublic life, of the great Republic. It is just such men as Governor Hughes that makes the grafter and heeler starve for want of opportunity. He was bigger than his \"job\" and consequently made good* He will be a distinct gain to the bench, and will be o loss to the Public life of the country. It is a question whether he could serve his country best in Public life or on the bench. We are incliued to think that he was needed far more as a statesman than as a judge. There is a growing demand for fearless, conseiencious, capable men in Public life the world over, ami Governor Hughes was looked upon as a possible candidate for the Presidency aud the United States does not hold a more able and honorable man to-day than Governor Hughes, and in whatever sphere of life he may choose to cast his lot, we are sure that he wdl give of his best to the public good. BRITISH SUBJECTS. The Home Secretary. Hon. AVinston Churchill, has introduced a bill into the Imperial'House which provides that once a person be comes a British Subject he is to be recognized as such throughout the Empires aiid he is to have the free services and protection of the British Coneul w hereeverlic? may be. It is expected that this Act wdl have a very strong tendency toward the cementing of the different parts of the Empire together. . i .. We think, however, that it is also another demonstration.ot the need of a central. Imperial Congress, whose duty it shall be to deal with all such questions of Imperial moment. The subject of Imperial Defence will never be solved, until such time as all.the self-governing Colonies have a direct voice in its administration. The Naval Bill recently passed at Ottawa, conclusively proves this. Already the press of the Empire are pointing to very apparent weaknesses iii it. As long is the little Englander looks upon the Empire as centered in England, as long as the self-governing Colonies look forward to independent Nationhood, just so long will the Empire be hampered in its most magnificent achievements.. But once let -he great Imperial spirit become impregnated into the life of all the iitegral parts of the Empire, and a vision of her destiny open to overwhelmed by the high ideas of the the minds of our citizens, then we shall produce men large enough to cause-in whose twrtherance he is en- directthe great.future- of our Empire, and not urtnljjien.. TELEPHONE SWITCHBOARD OVEBLOADED In reply recently to a complaint as to the nature of the telephone service by a subscriber, the operator or official to whom the complaint was made, stated that \"they were running short-handed, there not being enough girls on duty to handle the business and that the-'switch-board! was overloaded.\" We have been wondering for some time whv the service was worse than usual (and that is altogether unnecessary) and had concluded that the antequated system in vogue in this cit>? wasunable to cope with 'the growing demands made upon it. It will he remembered that when before the Council last winter opposing the advent of the Independent Com- panv7Afr: Farrell stated that 7*his Company did not care if they got'any more subscribers,;or not.\" This statement was based on the fact- that the style ofswitch-hoard used in Vancouver does not pa\\ above a certain'number.. It is fair to assume that that stage has been reached in Vancouver aud as a consequence, every new subscriber which is added means just that much poorer service to present subscribers. It would possibly have paid the City to have allowed the Independent Company to put in their automatic system. We might have had a good service even though forced to use two lines. DOGS \"The dog question is now before the eivie officials. The movement was instigated by some prosaic and uuroniautic souls who could see nothing in a dog but an object upon which to heap abuse and a scape goat for all unexplained depredations.

VANCOUVER BRITISH COLUMBIA Friday, April 29, ttlJ ii liri ill- in FIGURES We are frequently told that Britain is growing old arid becoming decadent. Most of those who say and so write, express their desires but not the truth. I have seen and studied many lands. . and so far, have not yet found one country more vigorous?, prosperous and promising than the grand Old Mother Lund which all true Canadians love and honour. One hundred years ago, English was spleen by lees than 25,000,000 people. Now it is spoken by about 150.000,000. French was spoken by 30,000,000 one hundred years ago, and now by 46,000. 000. Germany had to its credit 36,000, 000 then, and now has 70.000.000. Spain 41.000,000 now, then 30.000,000. Italy IS.OlMi.ooo then. 32.000,000 now. And just as the English language has made such wonderful growth in the past century, so have the Saxons in - creased in power, wealth and population. Never in the history of mankind has any single race made a headway so remarkable, and the increase is as rapid now in all material things as ever in the past. The British Empire has in shipping a tonnage of 17,500.000. more than the lest of the world. This is not a very marked sign of decadence. The Anglo Saxons have much more shipping than all the rest of this round world. ��������� and in the last hundred years the nxuny Saxon nations have practically ccme into existence from the loins of the Old Home. Every year, so far back as I can remember, this strange devcuirer and absorber of nations, tribes and peoples, has united under the Union Jack one or more stretches of territory. And the process is steadily going forward, in harmony with the 'promises made to the founder of our empire far back in the days of Abra - ham. At the present time. Great Britian has a mortgage on the nations of the ���������earth, running far up into the thou - sands of millions ; and the annual interest pouring into her coffers is measured by hundreds of millions. And still eyery nation on earth is borrowing from the old purse of the \"mother of nations.\" Yet we are told by many that Britian is. growing ' old and decrepit. True she is old. So is light and gravity. So i3 the Almighty. :'! Age cannot make a nation decadent. Nothing but sin can do that. Grand, glorious, mighty, prosperous, irresistible Britannia ; unique aitd splendid among the nations! Go on. and live on the fruits of increasing national righteousness forever, and in the end rule all nations, as long ago was foretold of the seed of Joseph and .ludah. E. ODLUM THE BLIND GIRL'S OOXOLOGY 1 They tell me that the sky is blue, j The rose is read, the lily white, that the stars come peeping through The sable curtains of the night. I And I cannot see them; for to me There is no sky, no lily white. The gloom and darknes of my night. There is no day for me���������the night. The changeless night, is all I see; And you know the lily's white, Know not how long that night can be. Hut hope a torch Is holding high��������� Hope born of faith in Calvary��������� That in those mansions in the sky The sightless eyes at length shall see. And so a paean of delight, A shout for blessings yet. to be, Salutes the solitude of night With faith's devout doxology. \"Praise God from Whom all blessings flow,\"! Praise God that sightless eyes shall see, Praise God that darkened souls shall know The glories of eternity. ���������Rev. Eugene B. Read in Christian Observer. A STRANGE JUMBLE A well-known divine. Dr. Mudge, had been presented with a gold-headed cane, and the same week a patent pig������- killing and sausage-making machine had been tried at a factory in the place of which he (the Dr.) was pastor. The writer of a report of the presentation, and a description of the machine, for the local paper, is thus made by the printers to \"mix things miscellaneously\": \"The inconsiderate Saxtonian who made up the forms of the paper, got the two locals mixed up in a frightful manner. We went to press something like this: Rev. Dr. Mudge's friends called upon him yesterday, and after a brief conversation, the unsuspicious pig was siezed by the hind legs, and slid along a beam until he reached a hot-water tank. His friends explained the object of their visit and presented him with a very handsome gold-headed butcher, who grabbed him by the tail, swung him round, slit his throat from ear to ear. and, in less than a minute the carcass was in the water. Thereupon he came forward, aud said that there were times when the feelings overpowered one: ami for that reason he would not attempt to do more than thank those around him for the manner iu whieh such a large animal was cut into fragments was simply astonishing. The doctor concluded his remarks when the machine seized him, and in less than it takes to write it, the pig was cut into fragments and worked up into delicious sausages. The occasion will long be remembered by the doctor's friends as one of the most delightful of their lives. The best pieces I can be secured for ten pence a pound; and we are sure that those who have sat so long under his ministry will rejoice that he has been treated' so handsomely.\" Body, a newly established league for the colonies, has been formed in South Australia. The Loudon secretary of the institution states that that body would be delighted to send more men to Australia if only because we get the money advanced for. fares returned much more regularly and quickly.than from those we send to Canada.

April 13.���������It. is stated that 110.000 emigrants will sail from Liverpool for Canada in 23 steamers during this month. The increasing proportion of people with capital emigrating to the Dominion is the subject of comment here. Interest is aroused in Liverpool by the suggest iou that, a hotel be provided for emigrants,who have to wait before the shipping offices are open, and who are often exposed to inconvenience by the lack of accommodation. ��������� A branch of the Central Unemployed POLICE DOGS The annual inspection and review of the police dogs of Paris was held recently. The foreign correspondent of the Brooklyn Times thus describes the occasion: Telephonic orders were sent out in the morning to all the police officers in charge of police dogs to bring them up for inspection, and an hour later twenty-five splendid animals, highly trained fOr police work, were assembled. .M. Lepine, the prefect of police, accompanied by a departmental chief, en- I tered the eonrt yard, and all the dogs at a sfgnaF from the-tr policemen keepers, gave the three regulation barks. The animals were then put through their.paces. A man got upon a bicycle and pretended to try to escape. A dog. which had at first been carefully muz zled, was sent after the fugitive. The animal, finding it was unable to use its teeth, kept furiously butting into the bicycle and did not leave off until it 'iad succeeded fit knocking the ma- chine over. The dogs eventually formed fours and marched past the prefect, much to the delight and amusement of the priv- ! ileged on-lookers. The animals turned about with marvelous obedience at the word of command. M.

HOW TO TREAT A MAN. By a Horse. If a man chops from illness, exhaust- Ion or supping, immediauy proceed to pound him with a club u.nd wick him in ihe belly. ii a man is , loaded beyond his strength, or don't travel fast enough io suit you, try the club remedy. 1 know of nothing better for such a stubborn beast. , It a man won't drink, if you gire him a chance, don't .offer him water iigain for two or three days. He must be taught to drink, when you want him to, whether he is thirsty or not. God didn't' put man's head on 'his shoulders! to suit U3 horses; so draw Ills head back with a strap and turn his eyes up to the sun, just to make him \"look fine\". If he has to haul a hisLload or run fast do not shorten the strap;. 7..;.-'. Put an ugly bit in -his mouth -an������ yank the teeth out of his head if h# makes a motion or step that does not suit you. A man surely ought to be abl������ to read a driver's mind; we horses are expected to do that. Never think of driving a man without a whip, and if you expect him to have \"lite\" or \"action\" use the whip often and hard. Half blind the man with hard pieces of leather, and than kick him roundly if he stumbles or is frightened at some, noise behind that he can not see the- cause of. It will \"quiet his nerves.' If a man gets frightened at. anything thrash him good and hard. The terror inspired by what.he sees is neutralized by the torture of the whip and so your man feels neither. If \"you would clothe a man\"~'ptt't~7a small blanket on his back only; do not cover him with a good, generous blan-:, ket. for it will make him \"tender.\" \"' These suggestions I give to my fellows because of my-long experience as' i> man's servant. Now, though I am Pittsburg, April 13.���������There are so many gentlemen convicts among the 700 prisoners of the Western Pennsylvania penitentiary that .Mr. John Francis, the warden, today announced that the stripes are to be practically abandoned at that institution. The conspicuous prison garb only serves to embitter men, said the warden, and makes it more difficult to reform. Neat suits of blue, with class letters on them, are to be substituted gradually for the stripes, and only the very worst behaved men are to be punished by uniform^ of the \"zebra\" type. At present, however, even a bank president and two former councilmen are wearing, the humiliating prison clothes. It is not the uselessness of the present system of punishment and humiliation as a prevention of crime that has induced the authorities of this prison to change the garb of the prisoners but the fact that a number of \"gentlemen\" are now prisoners. If any man be adjudged guilty ot\\crime and is elligible for punishment, it is the wealthy offender. Men whose circumstances and condition did not deprive them of means of a livlihood, but seemingly these are the men who must be treated with difference. It is our contention that the present system of punishment is wrong and we should substitute for it a system which would tend to remove the causes and treat incorrigibles as we treat our inmates of hospitals and asylums. That is. for a moral disease. Treatment, of course, will vary with cases. Bui to say because a man was a wealthy offender, therefore he is to be treated differently from a porter man, is to say the least absuid and unjust. It were just as wise to say to a man who had the lever, that because he was wealthy therefore he need not take-any disagreeable medicine', etc. | Let our treatment of this unfortunate class of society be uniform, equitable and scientific.
