Father Malono and Over 100 of His Flock Punished by Uishop Matz. DENVER, Col., May 3. Thl3 afternoon Dlhop Matz excommunicated Father Malone and over one hundred members of St. Joseph's parish who were at the recent parish meeting- at which It was decided to sue Father Malone civilly for the purpose of vindicating him from the charge of shortage In his account?, despite the tieEire of the Bishop that the suit be dropped. There has been considerable 111 feeling between lilshop Matz and Father Malone for eeveral years over the school question. The Ulshcp upholds and maintains parochial schools In this diocese in opposition to the recommendations of Mgr. Satolli, whose policy is upheld by Father Malone. The present suit aroae over the disposition of the funds of St. Joseph's Church, of whlcn Father Malone is pastor. Tne Bishop on several occasions calitd upon the priest for an accounting and intimated a misappropriation of the funds to the extent of $J2.lv0. Father Malone feeling unabk to secure what he thought a just hearing through ecclesiastical suit the corporation of ht. Joseph's Church brought an amicable civil suit, in which it was shown that instead of the priest being a defaulter, the corporation was Indebted to him over J1.GU). Before the decision was rendered Bishop Matz sc-curcl ar injunction restraining further proceedings, and at the same time u?pvnded Father Malone from the priesthood. The parishoners held an Indignation meeting and denounced the Bl?hop. To-day Father Malone filed his reply to the Bishop's application for a permanent injunction and immediately th latter excommunicated the priest and that lortlon of m congregation that tooic part in this meeting.

AN UPRISING EEARED

Mysterious Signs Found on Trees in Xorth'Behar, India Xepanlese Priests Relieved to Bo Coa spirillar Against the Government Affairs in Hawaii. LONDON, May 5. The Spectator to-day. publishes an alarmist article in regard to India and the possibility of serious trouble In that country. The Spectator refers to the dispatch from Calcutta published in the Times on April 17, announcing that much excitement prevailed in North Rehar, owinr to the fact that all the mango trees in several districts had been found smeared with a mixture of mud and of the hairs of some animal. The officials were perplexed, some considering that the smearing: of the trees was a secret s'gn connected with the cow protection movement, and this and other movements tfoing on in North Rihar disturbed and puzzled the government officials. In its reference to the Times dispatch the Spectator recalls that next Thursday is the anniversary of the Indian mutiny, and that this anniversary has been preceded by a mysterious distribution of cakes throughout Rehar and the northwe-st. According to the Spectator, there is something stirring among the Nepaulese priests, and it is feared it portends another serious rising. In India. The rising, if it takes place, according to the Spectator, will be due to the disaffection wnlch exists on account of a ruling of the opium commission, increased taxes, the cow question and other matters which have caused deep mutterings among tne populace. HAWAIIAN POLITICS. About n,CMK) Vote Red lered RoynliMn Standing Aloof. SAN FRANCISCO, May 3. The tomer Australia, which left Honolulu April 28, arrived here to-day with the following Hawaiian advices: The question of the registration of voters Ls the all absorbing topic at present. Next Wednesday is the day pet for the election of delegates to the constitutional convention. The registration closed on the 21st, and in Honolulu alone 1,507 have signed the rolls and registered themselves aa voters. This, although seemingly small, is, nevertheless, a good showing, when the fact that only 2.S0O voters registered at the last election under the royalist regime 13 considered. As will be seen by the following statement only 185 natives have taken the oath of allegiance to the provisional government. This email native vote is accounted for by the government officials on the ground that the natives have been advised not to by their royalist Queen. The following classifies the registration so far as it has gone: Native and half-caste, ISO; Hawaiian born, foreign, 101; American, 0; English, German, 120; Portuguese, 418; all others, P3; total, 1.5o7. Complete returns have not yet been received from the other islands, but the total registration for the group is estimated at about 3,X)0. A large number of Americans who are supporters of the provisional government have not registered, as they fear they will lose their American citizenship by taking the required oath. One of these disgruntled Americans is John Emmeluth, a prominent member of the advisory counsel. He has refused to take the oath, and It is supposed that he will be refused a seat in the coming convention on that account. The Portuguese have become a strong factor in the election, and have nominated two candidates of their own who, from the number of their countrymen who have registered, will probably be elected. The Japan scare has subsided. The little brown men have been lost sight of during the last two weeks, but they evidently expect to come to the surface after the convention. 1 A. Thurston, the Hawaiian minister to Washington, ls here, and will remain until after the constitutional convention. He denies the rumor that he has accepted the jiorttollo as Minister of Foreign Affairs. President Dole celebrated his fiftieth birthday on the 23d inst. He was given a serenade by the government band. The Native RestlesM.

Its capital was, in fact, exhausted before 1S"3. Continuing, Signor Tanlongo testified that in 1SS1 Slgnor Magllani and Signor Depretls compelled him to co-operate with the state in order to raise the price of Italian rentes above 101 in order to facilitate their con-

But between 1SS1 and 18X3 the transactions referred to involved the bank in a loss of from 16,000.000 to 18,COO.OOO lire. Finally Signor Tanlongo asserted that documents proving these assertions would be found at his residence. Alexander l'Une Illenl. BELGRADE, May 5.-Ex-King Milan, In consequence of the civil tribunal having approved of King' Alexander's proposal to make him regent during the tour of the young King abroad and relying upon the recent ukase Issued by King Alexander, has prosecuted the leading radical journal on the ground that it had Insulted him. The Court of Cassation, however, has decided In favor of the newspaper and has declared King Alexander's ukase to be illegal. The ukase referred to was issued on April 27 and annulled the measures which the former regents and the Skuptschlna had adopted against ex-King Milan and Queen Natalie on the ground that they were unconstitutional and restored his parents to their constitutional rights as members of the royal house. Mmriuotli Dyke Project. THE HAGUE, May 5.

It 13 estimated that the value of the land reclaimed will be 326,000,000 guilders. The commission unanimously recommend that the s.ate shall undertake the execution of the project. STALLIONS IN BATTLE DOTII IIIGII-DRED RACERS AXD THE SCENE A TRAINING TRACK. Chnrsre After Charge Mnde by Cactus on Ilamapo with Whirlwind Force Roth Animals Badly Hurt. Xew York Sun. A battle Was fought on Sunday at Holmdel Farm, . J., between two blooded stallions belonging to the stables of Gideon & Daly. It took place on the training course, with Mr. Gideon, J. J. Hyland, the trainer, Jacob Plncus and a crowd of stable boys as spectators, and Mr. Gideon, who has seen every kind of fight known in sporting circles, says that he never in all his experience saw anything to compare In fury and power with the contest between thfe two horses. "When they finally separated," said he, In describing the fight, "and I saw that they were both able to stand up and walk, I could hardly believe my eyes. I wouldn't have given $30 when the fight was on for the chances of either of them ever racing again." The fighters were Ilamapo and Cactus, both well known to the turf, particularly the former, who ran in fine form last season. Both are four-year-olds. Itamapo is a chestnut and Cactus a bay. Trainer Hyland had ordered them out, together with a number of other horses, for a turn around the training track, and they had Just finished the circuit of the track, which is seveneighths of a mile, when the trouble occurred. Itamapo, who was rid Jen by George Reed, an exercise boy, was a few yards ahead of Cactus at the finish. Johnny Thompson, the exerciser who was on Cac-' tus. had been urging him all the way around, which perhaps roused the horse's temper a little, for he is not only lazy, but at times ill-tempered as well. Moreover, the constant urging of the horse had tired out the boy, who had been ailing with chills and fever, and when he reached the liniih he was thoroughly exhausted. From the Judges' stand, about one hundred yards away, Dave Gideon ami lircus were watching the runners and trainer Hyland stood on the track below them. As the horses reached the finishing post Hyland said to l'incus: "What did you make the time?" 'I didn't time them," returned Pincus. "I didn't think they were running for time." Then he looked down the track, and cutu: "vtiy, the boy is ofT Cactus. He's loose." Jldeon and Hyland saw It at the same moment. They knaw that a loose highbred stallion was apt to be dangerous. Down beyond the judges stand the other boys had seen the accident, and, according to an unvarying rule, when a horse gt-ts loose, had backed their mounts in a line up agaln3t the fence so that should the free stallion come there he could not get in behind them. Then all turned their eyes down the course to where the two racers were. The fight was already on, for Cactus was vicious, and almost on the instant of finding himself free he had sprung upon Ramapo. What had happened was this: Thomson, the rider of Cactus, weak from his illness and tired out by the ride around the course, had fallen off almost from sheer exhaustion. Seeing Cactus start forward he shouted to Ueed: "Look out, George, he's after you." and as Reed turned he saw the horse's head at his side. BEGINNING. TO FIGHT. Cactus, without a t-ound of warning, seized Ilamapo by the mane, and, his teeth slipping, caught and snapped the bridle. Tiie chestnut went to h's knees, but recovered and plunced forward as his assailant bit at him again, and this time seized him by the flank. Ramapo is a lighter horse than Cactus, and came heavily to the grounJ Just as his rlier leaped off. Relieved of thia handicap the chestnut "grot to his feet, and started back over the track. j lie was net looking for fisht. But Cactus was wild witn naming- iury. -o sooner u;a Ramapo start toward the stand, with an Instinct, perhaps, that he would find protection there, than his opponent was after him. B?fore ten yards had been covered they were together again. The smaller horse, acting upon the defensive, half turned to meet the attack. Just as the pursuer reared uMn him. With crushing force the biy ' brought his metal-shod hoefs down upon 1 lUtnp'ipo's flank, bringing him heavily to t the ground. So great was the? impetus of the charge that Cactus went rolling over ! the other, landing on his back in the roadway. Twisting around he snapped savageI ly the chestnut, but the latter was iur alive to the necessity of active defense.

and fastening his testh in Cactus's bridle he tore it off. A terrific duel of teeth and hoofs followed, both horses fprawllng in the dust. The sound of the beating hoofs as they landed repeatedly with crushing impact could be heard plainly by the men at the stand, one hundred yards away. It seemed impossible to them that either horse should ever get to his feet again. Both exercise boys had fled from the track in alarm at the beginning. Reed had maue a grasp at Raman's brille, but it was in nieces, and it came off In the grasp. The boys were now watching from the inclosure .withln the track. With amazement they saw Ramapo get on his feet and go down the track, closely pursued by the other stallion. Cactus was gaining rapidly, when Ramapo turned upon him. With a shock they came together again. There was a moment of fierce fighting, then the chestnut dropped, as if he were a prize fighter trying to avoid punishment, and again the by went over him in a complete somersault. How he escaped breaking his neck the spectators cannot understand. It was only for a second that they were down this time. Cactus was up first. He leaped at the chestnut, who was on his haunches and stood the onset bravely. The attacking horse drew back for a moment, and before he could charge again Itamapo Was up and speeding down the track. The pursuit lasted but a moment. Forced, to turn again, the fugitive reared, an1 there was another terrific coliMon. hth horses going down. This time Cactus lay quiet for a moment. "He's done for himself at last," criel Daly to the trainer. "No; he's up aga'n." Kvidently the i-ious beast ha1 been stunned momentarily, but only momentarily. He was up a train and after Ramapo, who had Improved this opportunity by covering half of the remaining distance to the stand before the bay. caught up to him. Again the smaller horse dropped, after the first attack, nnd again the assailant whirled over him. It seemed impossible that any horse could stand thos terrific somersaults, but the bay seemed made of rubber. On rising he Instantly turned on the other, driving his teeth into his body. Ramapo was game now, and bit and ' kicked furtouslv. witliout effort to escape. Both had risen at the ?ame time, and the duel became a running fight. The horses were near the stand now. Both were covered with foam and lather, in which red streaks could be seen. Their heavy breathing could be plainly heard, and the vicious snapping of their teeth as they bit at each other. Mr. Gideon had Just about given up both animals for lost when Ramapo broke away again and came galloplug down the track. THE LAST ROUND. At that moment Mr. Hyland, seeing that both of the horses were able to run, showing that no limbs, at least, were broken, decided to take a desperate chance and try to get them apart. He started toward the horses on a run, and Mr; Gideon mentally added a good trainer to his list of losses. Before Hyland had reached the fighters Cactus had once more reached the chestnut and, seizing him by the shoulder, had pulled him down, going over him In another somersault. Thus opened the sixth, the hardest, and, as It proved, the last round of the battle. Rolling over again the bay landed his front hoofs on Ramapo's shoulder, and had a piece taken cut of his own shoulder by the latters teeth. Then followed a furious Interchange of blows landing mostly on the ribs. Both rose on their haunches, and their' heads came together. Itamapo was fighting better thaji he had been, and the bay went down this time. Instantly he was half up again, and then both sprawled down together. For a few seconds there was a confused turmoil of beating hoofs and snapping laws. Suddenly the bay spun around, half lying as he was, and struck out with his hind feet. One of them landed directly on Ramapo's Jaw. It was a fearful blow. From where Gideon stood It sounded hollow and reverberant, like the blow of a heavy club on a hogshead. "My Lord," groaned the horse's owner: "that finishes him sure. No animal could stand that." But It didn't. Ramapo got to his feet once more. So did Cactus; but before they could come together again there was a third party . in the fight. The trainer had seized the opportunity to come in between the stallions. Mr. Hyland is a thick-set man, rather short, agile and powerful, and with plenty of coolness and courage. All this a man needs who goes between two fighting stallions, and if he comes out whole he may add to his other attributes that of having been born lucky. Hyland threw his arms about Ramapo's neck, and was promptly Jerked from his feet. He hung on, and when he touched ground again the bay's teeth were at his shoulder, and the bay's eyes, bloodshot, and strained with fury, were glaring Into his. Just what happened Mr. Hyland can't tell clearly, lie think' that he made a pas3 at the stallion, and then drew Ramapo to one side. Vie appears to have arrived at the right moment, for when he drew the chestnut away the other horse drooped his head and made no attempt to follow. All the fight had suddenly gone out of him. The horses were taken to the stables, where they were carefully examined. Ramapo seined the wor60 off. His body was covered with bruises and teeth marks, and his Jaw was badly swollen, but, to Mr. Gideon's great relief, It was found that no bones were broken. The bay, while not so much marked, was rttally In worse condition at the finish. His terrific falls had racked him badly, and all that day he was in bad shape. Later he seemed to recover considerably. Yesterday both horses seemed in fairly good condition, and were eating heartily. Neither of them have been tried on the track yet, but Mr. Gideon feels certain that Ramapo will be as good as new In a fortnight, and the other horse shows no sign of serious injury, although some fears are entertained that he may be injured internally. Mr. Gideon hasn't pot over being surprised yet that both ar alive. He ascribes it to the fact that they were In perfect training and hard (is iron "all-over. Both he and the trainer lay. all .the-blame for the fight on Cactus. ..Ramapo is a .gentlemanly horse, they savand, did hi3 best to avoid a fight. Cactus i erratic, but it is the opinion of his acquaintance that he got enough fight on Sunday to last him for several seasons. Ramajo ls down In "Goodwin's Turf Guide" as a chestnut colt by Runnymede or I'ontiae. dam Annla F. Iast year, as a three-year-old, he ran In the American Derbv at Chicago, which was won by Boundless; in the Lorillard stakes at Monmouth, where he was second to Sir Walter. He won the Williamsbrldge handicap at the Morris Park fall meeting and the Pelham Bay handicap at the same, batlner Sir Walter, Princt George, Glenmoyne and Comanche. At the Brooklyn fall meeting he ran second to Sir Walter. Cactus is a sprinter. He is described as a bay colt, by Impt. Macaroon, dam Thistle. As a three-year-old last year he ran in the heavy handicap at Monmouth Park, won tho Flying stakes over, the Futurity course at Coney Island, nnd beat a number of good horses in other short distance races. Ramaoo will probably go to the post at the Brooklyn's spring meet this year. Cactus may also be entered. MOIXD 1JUIIDCRS.

RennltM of Researches Under Direction of SnillliNon'nn IiiKt it nt ion. Youth's Companion. The investigations which have been carried on during th? pat five years under the direction oT the Smithsonian Institution into the origin of the artificial mounds found in the Mississippi valley and other parts of the United States have, it is believed, settled a very important question in archaeology. It has been generally supposed that the mound builders were a race of people distinct from the Indians, and who had occupied this country in advance of the tribes found here by the European discoverers and settlers. But the investigations to which we have referred seem to show beyond doubt that the -mounds were the work of the red men themselves, and that their contents serve to throw litrrit upon the early history of the Indian tribes. In regard to the study of American archaeolotry Professor Ltngley, the secretary of the Smithsonian Institution. draw3 attention to the lamentable fact that owing to the exportation to Europe of the most important "finds" made in this country students must go to the museums of England in order thoroughly to master what is known of the early history of the Mississippi valley, to those of Germany to study the past life of Alaska and to those of France for information concerning the archaeology of California. How to Live Lonjc. Kate Field's Paper. In these days it Is rare to find anyone who wants to live to be elrhty-nine years old the age of David Dudley Field when he died. But whoever does wish to need not delve far into Mr. Field's published papers to find what he considered the secret of his long activity. "When I was a young man." he wrote in 1SSS. "I had very severe headaches. In 1SW I bought a horss. and I have not had a headache since. Every morning I rise at C o'clock. I have done so for forty years. I take an ice cold bath. dres3 myself. Jump on a horse at 7 o'clock anl ride for an hour. I then breakfast i and work at my house until 11 o'clock. when I walk down town, a distance of nearly four miles. I remain at my office until 3 o'clock, then walk home and dine at 6. At 7 I sleep for half an hour, after which I am ready for anything. I retire between 10 and 11 o'clock. I have done this for over forty years. I attribute my hardihood to horseback riding. Like Pere Hyacinthe, I must have my claret at dinner. Whisky, brandy or any liquid of that kind I never touch."

INTERESTING EXPERIMENTS IN SOCIALISM II Y THE GOVERNMENT. Railroads Successfully Operated nnd the Government Asserts Its Right to Land Ownership. A. G. Tradenburg, in the Outlook. . During Its brief history as an English colony. New Zealand has, perhaps, seen more interesting experiments in state activity than any other country In the world. Some of these experiments are In the direction of state socialism; more of them cannot be said to be socialistic In the strict sense of the term, as they have been undertaken In order to aid and Increase private enterprise. This growth in state activity has been due principally to the superior credit of the government over individuals or companies. British capitalists were slow to advance .funds to distant companies, but the credit of the colonial government has been excellent. The idea 'has also been prominent that the government should undertake certain enterprises which could not promise to be remunerative at the start, but which were essential to the growth and development of the colony. It has unquestionably been the prevalent opinion in New Zealand that the state is more than an organization for the purpose of government, and that It can properly undertake many enterprises which are commonly carried on by Individuals. As a result, most of those industries which are. included under the term "natural monopolies" are operated In New Zealand by the colonial government or by the municipalities. The state has also successfully been Invoked to change social conditions by various means, especially by taxation. This extension of state activity is caned by its opponents in England and New Zealand socialism; its friends call It "liberalism," or "new liberalism." In the early days of the colony public works merely kept pace with spread of settlement, but in 1870 came the "public works and immigration policy," which provided for public works in advance of settlement. Under it about 10,000.000 were borrowed from English capitalists and expended In the construction of road9 and railroads in all parts of the colony, the extension of telegraph lines, the encouragment of Immigration, the purchase of native lands and the supply of water to the gold fields. The demand for railroads and public works caused the original proposals to be departed from, and a far greater sum was expended. Up to March 31, 1803, a total of 20,736,974 had been expended under this act. The expenditure on directly 'reproductive works has been 16,S13,83U. These works were not undertaken so much for the sake of gaining revenue as for social purposes. The railroads have yielded considerable revenue. The gross earnings for the year 1S92-3 were 1,15.0,522; the net earnings were 449,830. At the present time there are but 150 miles of private railways in New Zealand. The expenditure for telegraphs and water works In tho gold fields has been made for similar reasons, andi itljese works have yielded a fair profit to the government, but they will be passed over in order to give space to some more novel, if not more interesting, experiments. BUREAU OF INDUSTRIES. About two years and a half ago the government established the bureau of industries, Its object being to assist laborers in finding employment and to aid local Industries. The central offlce Is in the government building at Wellington, and in each of the large towns Is a branch office. Police sergeants and constables act as agents in the rural districts, and are required to send regular reports to the central offlce regarding the requirements of workmen and employers. Any person can gain Information as to wages, market, etc, in any part of New Zealand by paying a visit to any office in the bureau. New arrivals in New Zealand can at once find where their services will be in most demand, and workmen out pf employment can easily learn whether they can get work in another part of the colony. This great government employment bureau has done frood service, and is looked upon as absoutely safe and reliable. Its services are offered free of charge. During the year from April 1, 1S92, to March 31, 1893, the number of men put in the way of getting employment by the department was 3,874. During the first twenty-two months of its existence 6. 47 men were assisted in finding work. When it Is considered that the total population of New Zealand is less than 700,000 the f reat service done by this bureau is mantes t. In 1S69 the Legislature of the colony provided for the establishment of the New Zealand government life insurance department. Prior to this time there had been numerous failures of foreign Insurance comianies, and residents of New Zealand had suffered heavily. The chief obtect of this department was to provide absolute security for every policy. This security rerts on the solid foundation of state credit, the government guaranteeing full payment of all policies. The department has from the first enjoyed a ' remarkable )rosterity. In August, 1S3. the accumuated fund amounted to over fOOO.O1). All securities held by this department ace in New Zealand property, and the department, does no business outside of New Zaland. At the end of the year 1832 the government Insurance office had 30.31C existing policies, insuring a gross amount of fltJttG,220. Another public institution peculiar to New Zealand Is the public trust office. This was established in 1S72, in order to secure a convenient recourse for persons in New Zealand and abroad who may desire to form trusts In the colony, and also for the convenience of persons who may be unable, or unwilling to undertake or continue the administration of trusts Imposed upon them. The colony guarantees against any lws f,rom investments made from bad securities; it also guarantees against loss by delays in making the Investment, and guarantees that the interest determined from time to time by order In council shall be regularly and punctually paid. Mr. Warburton, who is at the head of this department, says: "The public trustee, in his official capacity, never dies, never leaves the country and never becomes disqualified or involved in private difficulties or distrusted. It will thus be evident that, by his appointment as trustee, the preparation of the numerous deeds, and the consequent expense, which might become necessary in the ca.so of a private trustee, are altogether obviated." TRUE IDEA OF LAND OWNERSHIP. The government makes no attempt to gain rev?nue from the public trust office. In regard to land, New Zealand has introduced some Interesting innovations, which are called liberal or socialistic, according as they are approved or condemn?d. No person can purchase more than 640 acres In extent if first-class land, or more than 2,00i) acres of second-class land. In addition to actual sale of land, real estate is let out by the government on occupation with rijrht to purchase, and by leases In perpetuity. Under the tenure of occupation with right to purchase, land 13 hdd under a license fur twentv-nve years. At any time subsequent to the first ten years, and after having resided on the land and made improvements, the occupier can purchase the land. or can exchange his license for a lease In parpetulty. Under the occupation with right of purchase a rent of 5 per cent, on the cash price of the land must be paid yearly. Iands held under the tenure of leas; in perpetuity are leased for 903 years, subject to occupation and improvement. Th3 holders of such lands are obliged to pay to the state an annual rental of 4 per cent: on the cash mice! of the land, this price being estimated anew every three years. Under these two methods of tenure much Innd Is ; held by persons wno wouia oe unaoie to mrchase It outright. These methods of I ter.u-e al'0 secure t' the state a part of the increment in value due to growth In population and public works improvement, i Improvements ty tne occupier are noi suaJect to this r:nt. Thes? two tenures are, in fact, an application, in a modified form. nf the nrorofals of Ilenrv Cleor.e. Certain improvements for every year are nted uncn in order to pr:veni,nn i under r these tenures ling held for speculation.

3 V and 3 S. upon large estates. It Is the settled policy of the New Zealand government to break up large estates. If the owner of an estate objects to the high valuation rut upon his land by the assessor, he Is allowed to name his own valuation. If the povernmen thinks his valuation too low. It gives him the option of consenting to pay taxej cn the government valuation, or selling his land to the government at his own valuation. The government has thus succeeded in breaking up many large landed estetes which had been in existence long before its land policy was adopted. DISCOURAGES LARGE ESTATES. While It discourages large estates, the New Zealand government encourages small holdings in a very positive way. A prominent example of this is the well-known provision for village settlements. The government tets aside land for this purpose, and workingmen are encouraged to go In communities and settle, upon It. The government even advances small sums for the purpose of enabling settlers to profitably occupy their land, and no rent is charged for the first two years. Moreover, settlers are directed to districts where work Is obtainable, so that they can support themselves while getting their farms in order, and can supplement their income from land by wages. Such settlements are divided into village allotments of not more than an acre each, and homestead allotments not exceeding one hundred acres each. The former class can be held under any kind of tenure desired. Homestead allotments are leaded only in perpetuity at a four-per-cent. yearly rental on the valu of the land. These village settlements have been a great success, both in point" of the numbers who have taken advantage of the provision and in the revenue afforded the government, not to mention the relief given to congested city district.-. Recent figures show that 22,677 acres have been thus set apart, and advances of 24,023 made by the government 'to settlers. The social effects of these settlements can hardly be exaggerated. New Zealand Is rich in mineral waters, whose medicinal virtues are widely known. In the celebrated Rotorua district the government has erected a sanatorium and bathing establishment on its reservation of some fifty acres of the most desirable land. The preference Is given in the government sanatorium to those unable to stand the expense of hotels and private sanatorlums, and a low rate is charged such patients' When the sanatorium is not filled with such patients others are admitted, but thy are charged higher rates. The great object of this institution is to enable a class of persons who cannot afford to patronize private establishments to avail themselves of the treatment. It has not been attempted herein to give a full account of social experiments in New Zealand; only certain representative classes have been given. The movement Is, above all, a democratic one. The franchise In New Zealand fs as free as Jn any countn in the world. The electoral act of has e'xtended the franchise to women of European lineage and to the native women. The movement is still going on. and will no doubt Increase. Already It has been decided to start four government farms, and old-age pensions, civil-service pensions, a scheme for government loans to farmers and many other projects are under discussion. These experiments v. ill be viewed with Interest everywhere, whether or not the movement is commended. I'nsily DlNoouraoil. Washington I'cst. "Away back in the Fiftieth Congress." said Col.
