It is estimated that,the cost o f car- ty in g ripe beeves from AuHralia to London is a b o u t $ 7 0 per h e a d . T h e coat for sheep is $ 6 . Professor Ceaare Lombroao, who a.l- vjass that ehildreb and yonth» o f habitual criminal teuJencies be iso lated as lunatics, says tliero is scarcely • child who does not abuse his^powir over those who are weaker than he. If England sees fit to equip its most im p o rtant war vessels with wire wrennd guns, this country must follow suit, declares the Now York 'felcgrnui. The wire-wound eegmontal cannon is an American device that has proved .Under taste b y this GoverniAent to ho preet|aelly unbursteble. The gift of $ 1 , 0 0 0 ,0 0 0 to the C h i cago University by Miss Helen C u l v e r , of Ohieego, is the largest single g i f t that university has received, always exoepting the princely gifts of Mr. Rookefcller.

His plau is to creep around tho west coast of Greenland, and then make a dash for the pole by aledgo o r boat. ' So great has been tho reduotion of steam b oat aooidents in tho waters of th e U nited States since the Federal Government introduced , the inspec tion system that Inspector-General Dum o n t now assorts that travel by meter is much safer relatively than travel by railroad or even by street ear. He easerts, on tho strength of the flltality rocords, that one is safer onehteem b o a t than in walking tho etreete of a oity or ovou sleeping in one's own bedv „ / M ethodist m inisters in Chicago arc ■till dlioussiog the caso of tho young divine who olaims th a t he “ uucon- ■eionsly assim ilated\ tho sermon of Dr. Abbott which ho preached a few Sundays ago, and which unfeeling people aocuiod him of stealing. One of the other ministors doclurcd that bia defense of “ unconscious aaaimila- lation\ m ight be all right, but that if he bed it th a t bad ho m ight uncnu- soionsly aaaimilate tho olothus off a clothes lime some dark night. | Tho ifow York Sun thinks it w o u ld doubtless surprise many fo l k to kno w the number of furs that aro ta k e s an nually in Connecticut and Massa chusetts. William Clark, of V e r n o n , Conn., makes a tour of Tolldnu Oounty, Connecticut, and Hampden County, Massachusetts, every fall col- leeting furs front tho fa r m e r s . L a s t season ha collected hoiuu IT,00 skins, mostly skunk skins, but m a n y o f t h e m m ink. Theso animals are probably not more plentiful in thosu two coun ties then in somo other parts of the two State*. * The result of tho census taken tho other day in Berlin has caused some surprise. It shows tho total popula tion of the German cap.tul to he I,- 674,113, whereof 7l>7,J8('i ate males and 870,026 females. The estimate, based on the periodical returns of births and deatha and of departures and arrivals, whieh in Prussia have to be reported to tho polioo, had ahown, as worked o u t on November 10, a total population of 1,757,808. Moreover, the increase in tho population during tho last five years, aocording to this census, has been only six per eent., ac against twenty per cent, be tween 1085 and 1800, and sixteen per oenL between 1880 and 1885, The explaaatieu lies in the enormous growth of the subrubs as compared with Brlin proper. s The Atlanta Constitution says: About six months ago Massachusetts created tho Hlato Highway Commis sion, and since that tim e eighty-nine miles of fln t-clu s roads have been constructed under the auspices of the Bob Board. The experiment is so satisfactory that the Legialatuie this winter is expected to make a larger appropriation for roadways, and it is b o w Certain that the work ro suspic lously begun will bo pushed forward with iocreaaed vigor. The fact th a t th e people ore willing, after spending $700,000 in 1895, to spend a still larger sunt shews that the movement is favor of good roads is already pop ular enough in Massachusetts to lioUl its own, and i t is ualursl t o suppose th a t other H t.ii »:}1, o r g a n i s e th e i r commissions and g o to w o r k o n th e name line.

The fram e s nre nut expensive and th e ptc- tu r e s th e y are plain, A -broodlng thore w here sunlig h t or th e firelight softly falls; The s tr a n g e r w o u ld not note them , yot no hope of greed or gain W ould m a k e us think of parting w ith our pictures on th e walls! Nay, we would have no changes in tho por tra its if we c o u ld.

T h e ir voices com e at oven or on quiet after noons, And w hile we look upon thorn we recall tho dearer d t y i j And still th e y seem to lovo us os wheu Hope its sw e e te st tunes Wont chanting low aud tender here am o n g tho hom e stead ways. Tho years have been so m a n y , and tho days have gone so slow, Since wo w ere u n d ivided in tho years tho m ind recalls; A u d yet wo feel less lonely as we on our journey go.
