Portland, Mo., Is tbo winter port for all Canada, whioh send\ out and receives over $60,000,000 worth of goods every winter. Soccnt flpuroa show that the total Value of matches made and consumed throughout the world la but little &ort of 5200,000,000. The report that five-sixths of the female clerks in the Treasury Depart- ment at Washington have been dis- mi rho<l in favor of male suoeessors ?imply because they could not lift the fcftßvy ledgers emphasizes to tho New York Dispatch the importance of phys- ical culture for girls. Outside of tribal and religious dif- ferences there is abundance of excite- ment in India. During 1892, 21,988 human beings and 81,008 head of cattle were killed by snakes and wild beasts, the chief human mortality?l 9,- 025?being due to snake bites. Tigers claimed 947 human victims, leopards 260, wolves 182, bears 145 and ele- phants seventy-two. Valley Porge, tho famous winter headquarters of Washington during ithe darkest period of the Revolution, Is soon to become a State Park, the legislature of Pennsylvania having appropriated 825,000 to acquire the ownership of the property. The jury of awards has assessed damages of (28,532 to the owners of something over 200 aores of land desired for the park, and it is probable that the small excess over the appropriation will not atand in the way oi the patriotic pro- jeot. The St. Louis Star-Sayings observes: Builders, especially in the East, are, in view of a probably coming soarcity of lumber, turning their eyeß to a new ?ource of supply, Nova Scotia. Now that lumber is on the free list, it will pay buyers to purchase logs at 86 in Nova Sootia rather than at $10 in Maine or Wisconsin, especially as the cost of (water) transport is but little.. The drain on the Nova Sootia forests has hitherto not been very great, tho principal market being England, to whioh country 109,000,000 feet (166 cargoes) were shipped last year. There are still 2,000,000 acres of vir- gin timber land in the colony, of whioh 800,000 acres are owned by farmers, 400,000 by the Government and the balance by individuals and corporations. The clasß of '97 of the Jefferson Medical College, Philadelphia have decided to use the metric system in writing their prescriptions when they aie graduated. \This aotion,\ says the Philadelphia Enquirer, \will no doubt be handed down from class to class as it is the first step made in this country by a medical college. It' is contended that at the present time all ,kinds of weights and measures are jused by the druggists and pharmacists, thus leading to confusiou between the doctor and the druggist. The United States Pharmacopoeia of 1890, pro- aonnoed in favor of the metric system, yet it is only by conoerted aotion on the part of the dootors and the phar- macists that it will be brought into general use. The colleges of phar- maoy have adopted the metrio system and it is thought that, as it has been brought up in one medioal college, others will speedily follow.\ Mrs. Lynn Linton thinks that the peasantry of Ireland and Franoe, where she has observed them, are suf- fering greatly from the deoline of the squirearchy of landlordism. In Ire- land and in the Frenoh rural districts the people, no longer living under th« \influence ofthe better eduoated and more enlightened gentry,\ lose both in manner and morals, and are also injured n their pookets. Whole towns and villages in Ireland have been made poorer than ever by the laok of landlords, who, \impoverished by suooessive enactments,\ have been forced to shut up their houses and leave the country. The work that was given by the big houses is over. The smithy's fire is quenched; the oar- Tiers' horses are idle; the village shops are meagre and few; nothing is done, and \social life is stagnant.\ The women have scaroely anything to do. There is no more washing, and they are rapidly losing their skill in sewing. The \tyranny\ of the squire is taken off, but the peasantry have lost a valuable guide and ooanselor and source of profitable aotivity and industry whioh there is little pros- pect of replacing. lutleoill A brief biography of a Missouri politician begins with these words: \Some time aloug about the high water of 1844 lie acquired a taste for n(f)Aa \ TOPICS OF THE TIMES.

Some men are born great, Home achieve greatness, and some stand well with both factions. Between Engineer Jlmßoot and Anarchist John Most the New York stage should not suffer for thrills. It is a good plan to have a girl in the family earning money. Every one then has some one to borrow from. It becomes more evident every day that It will be a long time before this country gets the Midway Plalaance out of its moral system. Tiie oldest bell boy in the world has left San Francisco to return to Germany, carrying wltb him 910,000 with which to mako a \front.\ No matter how inexperienced a housekeeper the young bride is, she never goes to the bake-sbop to try to buy some sweet-bread more than once In her career. Gambleks in Chicago are fast be- ing forced to confess that their in- iquitous trade is only to be carried on with considerable risk?to those who try to suppress it. General Booth, of the Salvation Army, will make New York a city of the sccond class if he carries out bis idea.

John Drew Fisher, the actor, who died at Brooklyn, N. Y., was an- other example of how coincident fatality may pursue a family. He was the fifth of tho Fishers who died at 7 a. m. on a Sunday morning, bis mother, brother and two sisters all having died on that fateful day at exactly the same hour in the morn- ing. People who are disposed to grum- ble about high prices should be thankful that they do not live In tbe town of Forty Mile Creek, on the Vukon River, Alaska. The town Is tbe largest in the placer gold mining district, and Hour sells tor 16 cents a pound, while bacon brings 40 cents; beans are firm at 20 cents, butter is strong at 75 cents, and dried fruit is worth 25 cents a pound. A Chicago man who has just re- turned from a visit to London says that he was surprised, on taking sup- per with William Morris, the poet, to discover that the great man ate liver and bacon. Possibly this was a deliberate tribute on the poet's part to his guest's native town, or per- haps a concession to his own Social- istic tendencies Certainly it was not a poetic diet. Tiie New Jersey Mosquito Is the title of a new paper published weekly at Jloboken. In selecting the name the publisher may or may not have \3truck it.\ Should he succeed in making a paper whose presence Is felt as keenly as that of its namesake, the paper will m< doubt achieve a great success. If its bills are pre- sented as persistently as those of its industrious namesake its debtors will surely respond. The largest plow in the world, per- haps, is owned by Richard Gird, of San Bernardino County, California. This immeuse sod turner stands eighteen feet high and weighs 3(1,000 pounds. It runs by steam, is pro- vided with twelve twelve-inch plow shares, and is capable of plowing fifty acress of land per day. It con- sumes from one to one and a half tons of coal per day, and usually travels at the rate of four miles an hour. Burglars lately broke into the house of an old gentleman in Paris and after helping themselves to the silver and valuables gave him a lec- ture on the wickedness of boarding up capital which belongs to society in general. The papers in telling of the robbery speke of a bundle of securi- ties worth 20,000 lrancs which the thieves had overlooked, and that niubt they called ugain at the house, demanded the securities and carried tbem off. Morrison, an English traveler of the seventeenth century, while at Dantzic, Prussia, says he \saw a mill which, without tho help of human bands, did saw boards. It bad a great iron wheel, which did not only drive tho saw but which did also hook in ami turn the lous onto the saw.\ Dr. John Deo must have seen a similar mill at Prague. Of it he says: \1 saw mo a mill at Prague of which I verily believe the devil him- self was master.\ It is interesting to noto how the maps issued by tho great railroad lines (ervert tho truth of geography for the companies' own ends. A map of tho United States made up of railway maps pieced together would be a geographical crazy quilt that would present a grotesque caricature of this great country and represent It as a tract for which no fitting place could be found upon the face of the globe. At the same time there are parts of the country that have never been minutely laid down on any widely circulated map save those issued by railway companies. PEiinAPR every part of this country that saw the infancy of the railway has traditions of men that sat wait- ing with shotguns to prevent tho engineers from surveying on their landb, and many a town of arrested development owes Its decrepitude to some such opposition to early rail- ways. The history of that time is now repeating Itself in the opposition of country folks here and there to the sudden extension of electric railways. The danger of frightening horses and the inconvenience to teamsters in a public road partly occupied by an electric railway are some of the argu- ments advanced against this new factor In rural civilization. Rosbwater and romance are sen- erally supposed to be already pretty closely related, but an ingenious mind has contrived to unite them In yet another bond which is as novel as It is audacious. Italian litterateurs were recently invited by a German per- fumer, who does a large business in Italy, to supply him with a number of short stories, the most Important condition being that tho writers should introduce \in the most deli- cate manner possible,\ tho essential merits of the German perfumes. Over a thousand manuscripts have been sent in, and some of them are re- ported to be from the pens of well- known literary men, such as Signor Mantcgazza Almost the whole body of tho upper ranks of the naval engineer corps is made up of grizzled old fel- lows that entered the navy as third assistant engineers oeforc such a thing as a cadet engineer bad ever appeared at tbe Naval Academy. These men have had to acquire in the course of active duty a vast deal of technical knowledge now drilled Intofutureenglneersat tbe Academy. Such knowledge becomes more and more serious in volume year by year as war ships become more compli- cated, and tbe wonder is that busy men, some of them of very moderate schooling In youth, have been able to hold their own with rapidly ad- vancing science. Tiik publishers of Dixie announce from their editorial lair in Atlanta, Ga., that they are receiving the best of encouragement to hope for tbe success of the movement to extend the business of United States man- ufacturers with the countries south of us. They have obtained from Presi- dent Diaz personal assurance that he will do all he can to induce the peo- ple of Mexico to co-operate with this movement. So it is now suggested by Dixie that an association of manu- facturers be organized for the purpose oi promoting trade with Mexico and South America, and to that end it proposes a convention of all inter, ested manufacturers, the time and place of the meeting to be deter mined by the convenience of a ma- jority of the men who signify a wish to attend. ??P??? It has been reported that in some parte of Argentina, particularly in the far 6outh, the recent prices for wheat are so unremunerative the farmers are turning their attention to other crops. But, according to a correspondent of the Buenos Ayres Standard, this is not the case in the great wheat-growing province of Santa Fe. He states that wheat can be raised and delivered at the rail- road station at 13 shillings a quarter, giving the producer a fair profit. That Is equal to about 40 cents per bushel of 60 pounds, and the fact is mentioned by a London paper as showing that producers of wheat in the United States have a blue out- look for competition with those of Argetina. The cost of transportation from tbe railroad depot to the seaport is not stated, though that is aii im- portant element in the solution of the problem. Slavery of the Credit System. ,lov. Turney of Tennessee, deli v. ereJ a sound address at Chattanooga recently on the subject entitled \Slaves of Credit\ The Governor dwelt upon the baleful effects of the credit system, which is almost uni- versal in the South. Nearly every crop is mortgaged as soon as planted and credit taken at the country stores accordingly. By the time the crop is ready to harvest the farmer has already consumed its value in sup- plies advanced by the merchant, and the result is that the merchant gets the crop. The custom is so universal and of so long standing that it will be difficult to eradicate it; and yet without its measurable abolishment little prosperity can be hoped for. All this is true, not only of the Southern States, but of all other places where the credit system is ex- tended to the same limit It It. a most vicious custom and no State, community, or individual, a slave to such a condition, can permanently prosper. Gov. Turney spoke wo.ds of wisdom when he advised the farm- ers of Tennessee and the South to abolish the slavery tu which they are all thus subjected, and assert their freedom and their independent man- hood by for ing the more progressive custom of \pay as you go.\ Prompt pay begets habits of thrift aud punctuality iaail things, whilecredit always encourages, in effoct, the very opposite qualities in an individual or u community.

Blown Into Wuera Under the Cear'a Control They Were Seized and Thrown Into a Vile Prison?Sui- cide of the Owner's Brother?Dam- inands for Heavy Damages. San Francisco, Nov. in.?Capt. John- son of the sealing schooner Emma of Juneau, Alaska, and P. Riley, a hunter, have arrived here from the Orient on the steamer Peru. They tell a story of suffering and mistreatment In a Rus- sian prison, and will ask the United States to compel the Russian govern- ment to pay them a heavy Indemnity for their experience. The tale Is full of the horrors of prison life on the island of Saghallen and at Vladlvostock. According to the captain's story, the craft was blown Into the Okotscli sea. A Rus- hlan cruiser overhauled her. The Em- ma at the time of seizure was sailing with a Jury rudder and Injured spars. The captain explained to the Russian officer the cause of his presence in those waters, but his explanation was not accepted. The Russians claimed he was after seals and seized the ves- sel and crew, taking them to Saghallen. There 450 prisoners attempted to haul the schooner up on the beach and In doing so broke her bacfc, making her a complete wreck. The prisoners, ten In number, were confined in a cell 12x16, In which were forty-flve men all told. The horrors of the situation were too much for Robert Chaman, a brother of one of the schooner's owners. He went crazy and committed suicide. After being confined for six months at Saghallen, the men were taken to Vladlvostock for trial. This was a farce, they say. They were convicted and sentenced to serve six months each. The Vladlvos- tock prison was little better than that at Saghallen. Finally their sentence was served and they were finally turned loose without money or food. The Russians refused to do anything for them, and they would have starved had not the Chinese fed them. At the end of eleven days a merchant raised a purse, which paid their purchase to Nagasaki, whence they were sent to Yokohama by the American consul. At Yokohama the American consul procured Johnson and Riley passage to this country on the Peru. The others are still at Yokohama. Washington, Nov. 15. ?The depart- ment of state has had no Information regarding the Emma. No doubt Is en- tertained that In case the story is true official reports from the consuls were forwarded by the same steamer, and will reach the department about the end of the week. If the statements of the captain are capable of proof, the Russian govern- ment will be called upon for an ex- planation and for ample redress. CAUGHT THE FIREBUG. Walter Francois Confesses the New Canaan Conflagrations. Hudson, N. Y., Nov. 16.?The recent flres at the Burnham Industrial farm, at Canaan, In this county, which have excited great fear among the inmates, have been explained to Coroner Coch- ran. The firebug Is a boy, Walter B. Francois, sentenced from Blnghamton, New York, charged with pulling fire alarm boxes, and larceny. He pleaded guilty to burning a building at Blng- hamton and of being the Instigator of the flres at the Burnham farm which occurred on the 21st and 25th of Octo- ber, last. His confession was not made until more than ninety witnesses were sworn and when the prisoner found himself trapped by the coroner and jury. He assigns no reasons for the attempts to burn the building. MUST STAND TRIAL The Court Upholds the Senate in the Sugar Contempt Case. Washington, Nov. 14.?Judge Cole in the United States district court of the District of Columbia overruled the de- murrer in the case of John W. Ma- cartney of Washington and 13. It. Chap- man of New York, brokers, who re- fused to answer certain questions be- fore the senate sugar investigating committee, and holds the defendants for trial. This was in the nature of a test case and the decision means that Havemeyer, Searles and Seymour, who were recently indicted, and the news- paper men, Edwards and Schrlver, who were first Indicted, will have to stand trial. Sued for Malpractice. Matawan, N. J., Nov. 15.?A suit for $10,000 damages for alleged malpractice has been brought against Dr. Cyrus Knecht. The plaintiff is Augustus Close, a brick manufacturer. He charges that Dr. Knecht wrongly diag- nosticated an ailment of his wife. Mrs. Close was suffering from a tumor and for a year the doctor treated her for another disease. Finally Mr. Close took his wife to New JTork, where the tu- mor was removed. Shortly afterwards she died. Ingersoll on the Election. Johnstown, Pa., Nov. 15.?1n an inter- view here Col. Robert Ingersoll said Cleveland's blunders are responsible for the democratic defeat. President Cleveland, he said, is dead politically. The logical republican candidate for president in 1896 would be either Reed or McKlnley. The next republican con- gress would certainly repeal the Wil- son bill. The 'drowning glory\ of the election, he concluded, was the break- ing of the \Solid South.\ Crowds at the Hurse Show. New York, Nov. IB.?The rain made things dull at the horse show, but the attendance was good, lioudsters, sad- dle horses and heavy draught horses were Judged. Prizes were won by many New Yorkers.

Important Changes Expected In the Various Clubs. New York, Nov. 16.?The National Baseball league magnates met at the Fifth Avenue hotel to-day. Nothing was done of Importance but among the rumors floating about Is one that If the worst comes Boston, New York, Brooklyn, Philadelphia, Pittsburg, Bal- timore and Washington will resign from the National league and Ameri- can association In a body and organize a new eight-club league of their own by placing another club In Philadel- phia. This would leave the present or- ganization In the hands of the five western clubs, Chicago, Cleveland, Cin- cinnati, St. Louis and Louisville. N. E. Young was elected president for a term of three years. The report of the board of directors was accepted and ti;e delegates spent their time until they adjourned In revising the league constitution. In section 26 they made a considerable change In the wording. Heretofore a manager could release a player and reconsider It at any time prior to the expiration of the ten days. Now after a player Is once released he will have to be resigned. Section 45 was also amended for the better. A postponed game can now be played on the grounds of the visiting club at the option of the two clubs, provided there is no open date In that series for the grounds from which the postponement Is made. There will be a meeting of the officials of the other leagues at the Fifth Avenue hotel late to-day. The representatives are B. Johnson, presi- dent of the Western league; P. T. Powers, prelsdent of the Eastern league; T. Murnan, president of the New England league and H. H. Dlddle- bock, secretary and treasurer of the Pennsylvania State league. BYRON B. WRIGHT'S FUNERAL.

America's Offer of Mediation Likely To Be Rejected. Tokio, Nov. 15. ?Japan has not yet received any peace overtures from China. If Japan accept America's offer of mediation, she will do so only upon certain conditions concerning the ques- tion of indemnity. It is understood that Japan's actual outlay for the war up to the present has been about £30,- 000,000. Dispatches from Field Marshal Yam- agata say that he Is continuing his advance In Manchuria. His left di- vision s marching upon Sui-Yen, where a force of 20,000 Chinese under Gen. Ma s encamped. The right division recent- ly routed a large force of Chinese cav- alry on the road to Lln-San-Kwan, which was occupied later without op- position from the Chinese.

ON SERIOUS QUESTIONS Work of the Episcopal and Baptist Congresses. nishop Potter nmt Prominent Clcr- Dincusaed Education for tlio Ministry at Hosh.ii, While Criminals \Wan the Theme lleforo the Meeting at Detroit. Boston, Nov. IB. ?The second daya* ftosslon of the Episcopal church con- Kross opened In the music hall with Ulshop Lawrence in the chair. The attendance was large. The topic dis- cussed was \Proper Education for The Ministry,'* Introduced by papers read by Kev. 9. D. McConnell, D. D., and Rev. J. Lewis Parks, D. D? both of Philadelphia. Mh McConnell objected to the method of education employed, because It does not secure the rlßht men; t does not train them properly and costs too much money. The remedy wus to shorten technical training and lengthen the time required for secular education. Mr. Parks said that the primary step in education for the min- istry should be spiritual. The llrst of the appointed speakers was Rev. Prof. Samuel Hart, D. D? of Hartford, Conn., and the second, Rev. H. C. Swentzel, of Brooklyn. He was followed by the Right Rev. Henry C. Potter, D. jy., L.L. D? of New York. Ho said It was not so easy for a candi- date to got past the bishop as has been represented. The three notes of a proper education for the ministry are, the note of preparation, the note of ac- curacy, and the note of responsibility. The important question Is that the preparation should not be confined to theology alone. In speaking of accu- racy, he said that this applied to hu- man speech as well as to theology. In Illustration of this, he told how, when rector of Grace church, his brother told him the people were saying that he had stated In the pulpit that \God Is a dead horse.\ On consulting his manuscript he found that what he did say was \God Is not a dead force.\ It impressed one, he said, with the enormous value not merely of moral, but labial accuracy. The first voluntary speaker, Right Rev. C. A. Hall, D. D., bishop of Ver- mont, said that the study for the min- istry begins too late and ends too soon. It should begin with the boy in the school, who should thoroughly unuer- stand his bible before he enters for holy orders. He thought the course of in- struction should be more theological. Right Rev. Dr. Rullson of Pennsyl- vania spoke on the necessity for having men of strength of character and abil- ity in the ministry. Ulshop Lawrence closed the speaking with an earnest defense of the theo- logical schools of the church. The man who studies for the ministry, he said, should first know God. He should study theology, not for its practical work, but for his own sake. The stu- dent should look Into the very eye and heart of God. Detroit, Mich., Nov. 15.?\The For- mation of Criminal Classes; Its Cause and Its Cure,\ was the topic discussed at the session of the Baptist congresi here. Rev. C. R. Henderson of Chicago said the criminal took advantage of the citizens' neglect of him to tempt young Americans, steal ballot boxes, ruin cities and undo the work of churches. Crime was caused by In- humanity and low wages. To cure crime, the church must christianize society. Factory labor for children should be abolished and compulsory school laws should be rigidly enforced. In regard to the prison reform, he thought discharged prisoners should be protected and given an opportunity to reform. Rev. George W. Hlckox said crime was not to be suppressed by the ma- chinery of law but by means of hu- mane and moral agencies. H. Thane Miller, the blind principal of Mount Auburn seminary, said that an awak- ened public conscience was demanded before crime could be suppressed. President Andrews of Providence said great wealth was a cause of crime. The example of crime in high places led others to the commission of crime. He entered a strong plea In behalf of the working classes. In speaking of the dead czar and his despotic govern- ment, President Andrews said: \Peace to his ashes and I hope he may find peace to his spirit,\ and then he thundered against him, saying that he was worse than Charles I. as a persecutor of mankind. Rev. Everett D. Burr of Boston said that lack of a trade education among American youths was a great cause of crime. Dr. Lawson of Camden, N. J., said the saloon was the cause of crime. DEAD AFTER THE WEDDING. Mis. Frances Quiiitui-il Expires nt Hor Grand-Daughter's Nuptials. Port Chester, N. Y., Nov. 15.?The magnificent wedding of Miss Florence E. Qulntard, daughter of the ship- builder, to Mr. B. B. McGregor, which was attended by the most prominent society people of the United States, ended In a tragedy. Mrs. Francis K. Qulntard, grand-daughter of the bride, expired of heart disease a few hours after she had returned home from Christ church in Bye, where the cere- mony was performed'. She was a daughter of the late Charles Morgan who founded the Morgan Iron works, of New York, and Mrs. McGregor is the daughter of her son, James W. Qulntard. The wedding was one of the most fashionable ones held here, and the tragedy has cast a gloom over ail. The Fall of Talien-Wan. \Vushington, Nov. 15.?The Japanese minister has received the following: \Our army occupied Tallen-Wan on the afternoon of the Bth Instant, having de- stroyed Chinese torpedoes.
