Insect poisons, as a rule, were undoubtedly developed for use against other insects. Therefore, they are small in quantity, and, peneraliy speaking, are serious in their effects only upon other insects. The exact nature of Ihn poison is not well understood. In some instances It Is a combination of alkaii and an acid which bocome effective only when they are combined. In ants, wasps and bees it consists of formic acid and a whitish, fatty, bitter r idu- in the secretion of the glands, lha corroding, formic acid is the essential part of the poison. Cases are on record of the death of human beings as the result of the inaction of p.nson with the stinKs or bees and wasps, us well as with the bites of spiders, fcucn lasts, however, are rare. A number of ia.ms are on record of death from a, multitude or bee stings. I know of one case, well authenticated, of the death of a mid-ile-agetl woman trrm a. single b.-e stin?. The phvsical cor oiiion of the patient unooubtedlv had much to do with the fatal rtsult. which was probably due partly to r.ervous shock and possibly to the fact that the poison was injected dlnetly into a lare ein and was thus carried immediately to the h irt. Another case of similar nature came under the observation of Dr. William Frew, .f Imgland, in 1'. The patient, a young la.lv of twenty-three, was stung on the neck, just behind the angle of the jaw, by a wasp, the sting of which was extracted bv a servant. A di lution of arsenic was applied and. as the patient b it ill, Phe was assisted to bed. She complained immediate-tv.-linr of choking and of p.iin in the abdomen. The reek swelled rapidly and the pains in the abdomen berame agonizing. Two teaspoonsful of brandv were administered, out iero-e anj -thing "further could be done the patient b--ti.rne lnsenrdble and breathed her last, Hilfen mimites after the sting. Dr. Frew saw the body about two hours Rftr death and found the neck and lower prt of the body much swollen. 1 he tongue was swollen to such an extent that it rilled the .mouth. The young lady was .f a nervous, excitable temperament and had shown symptoms of weak action or the hart. From both father and mother sh; hail inherited gouty tendencies and the in. t her was remarkably susceptible to the action of certain meditints. i;fit:ct of hki: stincs. The stings f bees and waps have very tlilTerent elects on different pec pie, and without doubt persons who habitually handle bees become immune to their poisons. That this immunity is produced by inoculation cannot be doubted, but there must be an almost continuous reiuoeulation. A man may hae kept bees for a series of years und have become in a measure immune to th!r sting. He may discontinue the int'i'trv for a vear or so and upon resuming it ho "will rir.'l he is affeettd by bee stings s at iirt. It i a curious fact that some portions of the body may become immune and others not. , , Herbert If.

Manv of the true I z3 give severe puncture with their beaks. Home .f thr-in lnfert a sheht amount of poison, but the inrummalory effects whl-h occasionally fol-

low the bite of most of them are due to the fact that their beaks have previously been inserted into some dead or decaying anlm.il matter so that the germs of putrefaction are thus carried into the human blood. This is the explanation of the comparatively few authentic cases of severe swelling following the Lite or the so-called kissing bug. The lare aquatic bug which of recent yars his become Known as the dectrlcli.sht bug has a sharp beak and may inllict a severe wouml when incautiously handlecL Serious results, however, are not known to follow. The large, ungainly, predacious bug known as th wheel bug may give a serious wound under similar conditions, and Clover man vcars ago reported a serious swelling of his hand and a sur sequent slouching off of the skin and suptrlidal tissues of the ball of Iiis thumb as a result from the bite of this insect. There is a little croup of cut-rpil!ars armed with sharp hairs v.hbh will pierce the skin and produce sometimes an int'i! irritation, much like that which 13 produce.! by th nettle. The commonest of thes.j caterpillars are tlie so-called saddle-back catcrplilats and the caterpillar of the Io or earn emp rur mnth. '1 he irritation produced by the.se creatures is s-omt times as .-evore as tho severest cases of poisoning from ncltlo. ?;ti x g i x r cat i: rtr i llars. I have seen the hand of a young woman swollen to twie its normal size, cauring great p;?in, in consequence of being slung. The president of a Haptist college in the West wroto last year that one of these caterpillars accidentally touched his wrist and for eight hours tho pain was excruciating and could not be allayed by any treatment. It could be fUt for twentyfour hours. The caterpillar of the so-called browntailed moth, a recent importation from Jh-trope, which exists in numbers about -I: )st :i, has this peculiar quality, and tne laborers en-ae-d by the Gypsy Moth Commission were frequently stung by tin se cat .epillnrs during tho summer of lvj, with punful effects. Then, again, the so-called blister beetles, f which there are many species In this country, are oceaelonally the cause of a blistering poison. H'h a one of these insects alights on tho l ack of one's neck the lirst Impulse is to brt-'.-h .t off and it frequently fets crushed, in whb-h case the blistering eaiect of its juit os is very marked. There is little dan-rer from centinedes

an.l scorpions in this country, even in the Southern States. Notwithstanding an al most universal belief to tho contrary, a scor: ion s tsting is no more dangerous than that of a honey bee, and often the effect is no v.orso than that of the prick of a pin. lo,vn in Mexico, however, and especially in the State of Durar.go. there is a scorpion generally known as the Durango scorpln, which is much feared. The stories about even this creature", however, are generally exaggerated, ami Dr. Kdward Palmer, who ha? lived in that State. sa3 that ho lias known but one death to result from the sting of this creature, and that was of a young woman who was in very bad health at the time. In the same way stories about centipedes are also exaggerated. We have no dangerous species in the United States. The tropical centipedes bite with their maxiilipe.ls and possess poisonous glands. The oli stories that they exude poison from the tips of their sharp claws and leave a trail line tire when they walk over the skin of a human being are entirely false. Their bite is poisonous, but the result is not serious. In Central America and among the Mexicans in Texas. New .Mexico, Arizona and Southern California, many harmless insects aro generally considered poisonous. This is due- to a special cause. It arises from the fact that the blood of these people is so vitiated by unclean diseases that an Insiniticant bite or scratch is apt to bring on blood poisoning, followed by serious results. IS ATHLETIC THAIXIXG USEFUL? A Question Itniscel by tbo Recent C'leveluiiel Coutest. Washington Post. Nobody seems to have considered the signllicance of the wrestling match between Nouroulah, the big, fat Turk, and Torn Jenkins, of Cleveland, pronounced by all competent authorities "the finest specimen of physical perfection ever turned out by athletic training." The Turk, as he appeared in the. ring, looked like a mountain of llesh. lie was "hog fat," as the reporters said. His enormous abdomen hung about him In huge folds. He was soft all over, apparently unwieldy and slow as a horse car. It was perfectly evident that he had not "trained" at all, as our experts understand tho term and they are the "smartest" in the world; they say so themselves. On the contrary, it was well known that he ate and drank gluttonously, smoked cigarettes from early morn till dewy eve, and generally neglected every custom anl injunction recognized in the athletic schools of America ahd England. Jenkins, on the other hand, was a miracle of muscular development. Lithe as a tiger, carrying not an ounce of superfluous llesh, a vision of symmetry and strength, ho stepped upon the platform the very apotheosis of the Anglo-Saxon philosophy. And yet the great, lumpy, lumbering, unweildy Nouroulah picked up the Cleveland wonder as if he were a pretty kitten and did with him as he pleased. Jenkins was for him a mere helpless plaything, a puppet to be tossed about and caught and tossed again, like some imponderable handball. Of course, the Turk was much taller, and ho weighed perhaps 150 pounds more than his antagonist, but, according to our complacent and srlf-sufTicIent convictions, this extra weight was wholly detrimental. Nouroulah was simply carrying about with him . 10 J poumis of more or less Injurious fat an equipment that injured and embarrassed him while all his habits and indulgences were so many violations of tho most sacred laws of athletic training. lut how are our wiseacres to explain away the result? Tom Jenkins, who had already vanquished Koebcr, and was rega.rdei by all the scientists as a muscular prenomenon, proved the very easiest of victims in the hands of tho "hog-fat" Turkish cigarette-smoking and lazy glutton. More than that, it became evident that tho latter was as quick as a cat and had wind enough for a whole year's continuous campaign in Kansas. He was no more tired alter seiuelchlncr Jenkins than if he had been swinging in a hammot k. lie could havf done the samo trick every hour until breakfast time, and even after that would have absorhe! his Chateaubriand. bonlelaise, his six egs, his half gallon of coffee and his three loaves cf bread with something bordering on languor. Is our athletic system all right? "We should really like to know. The late Surgeon Genera! William A. Hammond, 1. S. A.

BEAUTIFUL INDIAN GIRLS i

3XAXY rot M AMOXG TUG CIVILIZED NATIONS. nvi: 2Jor. of Them, Ilnnrvtcr, Have More "White Tlinn ltcel lllood Tribal I.avr (iovemluir Marriage. Cleveland Flaln Dealer. u rule one lluJi that "the beautiful Indian maidens" are confined to the pages of romance. Generally speaking, the young tquawd in the Indian tribes cf the West uro uncouth in appearance, awkward in form and ungainly in their movements. It is seldom, except after contact with the whites and association with them for many years, that they acquire grace of movement and symmetry of form. Among the civilized tribes of Minnesota at Leach lake and White Earth especially there are many beautiful Indian girls. They dress fashionably and seme cf them exhibit excellent taste, although the majority are perhaps a little too fond of gaudy colors. There are also seme very pretty Indian girls in the Indian Territory, but their loveliness comes because of the Intermingling of white and red blood, tho opportunities of ca'ueati n and their association with white pcopie. There are lew of these beauties In the Indian Territory. Many of them are cll to do in the wt rld's goods, ar .intellir;. nt ami accomplishe-d and sought ait.-r for marriage by young i.k:i who could easily seeure brides in the Fast equally us intelligent, lieii ami faiily favor'.l. lb'ferrir.g to this clars of young Tndian women a writer says the girls u' the Indian Territory are, to all intents nnd purposes, on the same plane with the white women of education and refinement, except that some strain of the wild Indian blood runs in their veins and gives them a tinge e.f rich color, a brighter eye, a mote lisscme grace than their white si.-ters possess. Reckoned in fractions of blood lheso Indian beauties are more Caucasian than aboriginal American. All of them, however, are Indians, politically and social!; th y hold tirraly to their merabe rship in the tribes. Many of them are erne quarter e.r one-eighth or oven cne-sixu e ntli or om -thirty-second Indian, but the red strain is the stronger and shows, if not in some lingtring richness of color or in the molding of thei face", still in tin indefinable fascination and grace, the heritage of a forest people. Among them one may lind perfee-t blendes, with the Indian strain still salient and palpable. And although they have suecumbeil to the corset of an alleged civilization, in almost all cases they have their less trammeled ancestresses to thank for the blessing eif well-nigh perfect ligures. And one other of woman's best gifts they possess, clear and low voices, with not a trace of the guttural intonation which is common to all original Indian tongues. So rarely is it that one of them mat t ies an Indian that such an event iä commented upon in the Territory as a remarkable thing. ItESTJLT OF INTERMARRIAGE. Intermarriages with whites in the Cherokee, Creek, Choctaw, Chickasaw and Seminole tribes has flourished to such an extent within the last quarter century that the full-blood element is now on the verge of extinction. The old men of the tribes are becoming alarmetl and have passel laws against intermarriage, some of which are very severe almost prohibitive, In fact. The Chlckasaws are the strictest regarding intermarriage. A law recently plat d on their statute books requires any whito many applying for a license to marry a Chickasaw girl, first, to produce evidence that he has resided in the Chickasaw nation two years; next, to furnish credentials as to his rood character, and, third, to pay $1,) lor the marriage license. This must be elone if the ceremony is performed according to the Chickasaw laws and the girl is weddcei according to the custom of her people. Of course, the girl litis and some times takes the privilege of eloping at tho cost of losing her right in th tribal lands and money and of disgrae-ing hertelf in the eyes of her relatives. Her "healright is something worth considering. A "right" in the Chickasaw nation is valued at from $5,0X3 to Slu.oeO, and in the Cherokee. Creek and Choctaw nations is valued at from jr.tt) to SS.WO. The intermarriage laws of all the four rations named are about tho same, excepting that of the Chickasaw nation, charging H, for a license while the others only ask 510. There is good reason for these laws. Many fortune hunters, attracted by the wealth of the Indian maidens, have in th" past married into the tribes and gained control of large tracts of land, fostered outlaws and raised bad families. There were few happy marriages, and not until the wise men of the tribes met and passed an act making every white man show his credentials before a license was issued. was there a betterment of these conditions. The character of each applicant was care fully examined before he was admitted. For several years thereafter respectable and Industrious whlto men married into theso tribes and their children married whites. It was so on down the lino until to-tiav the eighth, the sixteenth and thirty-second part Indian predominates. Of pure bloods there will be none within a few vears. Still the open door marriage policy, while it admitted no bad characters, was fraught with many evils. rihe women possesscel a desire to marry white men, hence it was easy sailing for fortune hunters. This class of men fenced in large tracts of the publie domain, or land belonging to the redskins In common. us'd the land for cattle ranches and converted the minerals into e-ash. Many men became millionaires at the expense of the tribes. They were known as "galvanized Indians" or "squaw men." A PARTIAL REMEDY. Five years ago the evil was partly rem edied by tho tribal councils disfranchising1 all "squaw men" who thereafter married Into the tribes. This checked tho influx of money seekers for a time, and then it became ns bad as ever. Early this year the Chlckasaws took another hitch In the intermarriage situation by raising the licenses to Sl.vuO each. The average Indian girl of to-day I possessed of an excellent education. The federal government spends nearly $1"o.ij annually in educating the youth of the five tribes. The Indian maiden who has the reputation of being the belle of the Territory is Miss Tookah Turner, wh ote Jr.dhm name ia Pretty Whirling Water. She has not ordv beauty, but possesses the accomplishment's of the hnished product ef a fnshiuriablo school. She will cnu in fer a 1 .rge dice öl me I'juuat1 ol nei laiaei, . e .

The newspapers .Tea ted are arrnnged by ptates. ar.el include those long since dead as well os the newest of the living. In .every instance the name of the rounder is

given and such other facts cs will answer the questions which naturally suggest themselves concerning a newspaper's history. The entire work, it is estimated, will Mil more than 2.(:) pages of rrint. It has taken about three years to prepare, and another six months will probably be consumed In putting it through the press. The compilation was a huge task, involving a se-areh through state histories, county histeri. s. biographies, gazetteers, dirxctorhs. ccraslcr.nl address?, pamphlets cf all sorts and the. tiles of newspaier3 from the earliest American hite down to the present limo.

Eut it is the custom of th bu!ne-.5 man when lunching with an uninitiated friend to dupe him into the belief ed the modern nerve-racking theory.

It is extraordinary, this fond deluj-lon Conditions ar altered, areas enlarged: but fundamentally and relatively, there has bten no change, if ased to state in exact ly what particular modern life bo racks our nervous organization, most or us would ni hard put lor a sensible answer. Where, in the end, is this nervous drive ve aro so nersiitently canting about? What Is all thid talk of stress and strain and strife? It is a delusion of thö age pure imagina tion. "We are liko so many littla children in tho nursery; we cloak ourselves in these pleasing, pretty tlisguises, and we "play at being" poor, hard overworzeei mortals. It is a platitude that in looking lack along life's road, only the pleasing features remain clear in th picture üiaco'urovts fade, they are lost in retrospection. This fact greatly adds to the illusion. o men tion. oei ha ds. the railroad as an lnstaneo or tho nervous age, an'd contrast it with tho lumbering stase-coaches they used in tho slow, uncultured old days. Stage-coaches have a pictures.iue sound about them, no doubt; but personally i cannot seo that it is more trying to travel In a panor railroad ear than to have a hard outside seat em a coach, the latter drawn over rough roads on a stormy night. If this sounds somewhat unconvincing, it is so because tho mind cannot rid itself of association. Things of the past have a comfortable, easy aspect from our viewpoint, merely because we have not experienced their dls comforts. A heavy rainstorm, for instance, has the llavor romantic, almost cosy and pleasant, in an historical novel. Put bring that pelting rain right down to the present day and hour, and if there is anv business oubloors. the romance be conies "beastly weather." Ami talking of novels, it is instructive occasionally to read the book reviews. We live in an ago of rapid transit, say these portentous chronicles ia effect. The modern novelist must catch his public on the hop, and to this entl turns out his three or four novels a year without a murmur. The olel days when renters thought they were doing re markably well in publishing at two-year Intervals are past. They have given place to the hurried, nervous whirl of the twentieth century. Oh, indeed! Kow about Palzac, for Instance? Twelve hours work was Ralzac's regular allowance, and he often worked eighteen.

PETER JACKSON, PUGILIST

CAREER OF THE LATE FAMOUS COL ORED 1ICAVV "WIIKHIT. Hin Health Shattered by l'nd Living mid He Died of Consumption Lour Bout with Corbctt. George Siler, in Chicago Tribune. Peter Jackson, known to tho Englishspeaking world as the best colored heavyweight pugilist that ever donned a glove, has fallen a victim to that incurable disease, consumption, in his adopteel home, Australia. Peter's fatal illness dates back nearly two years, or a few months before he returned to this country from England. His death was anticipated by h:3 world ef friends, therefore, and caused no shock. even though late reports from Australia tated he might live several months. Jackson in his prime was as fine a speci men of manhood as was ever created. Near ly six feet one inch in height, massive shoulders, finely developed chest, clean cut but not bulky limbs, Peter was a picture when stripped for acticn. Fast living, ir regular hours and intemperate habits, with tho hard knocks received while following his profession, laid the foundation of a malady that led to consumption and death. Jackson, although a wreck of his former self, fell sick while attempting to roach the Klondike and was advised by friends and his physician to keep away from the Klondike if he wanted to linger among those who would see that he did net want for anything. He was then sent to Australia, his adopted home. Peter, it has always been claimed, was born near Porto Iiico. West Indies, but a man who traveled to England with him in isfcy says he was born in Jacksonville, Fla. However that may be, Peter lirst became favorably known to American ring followers when he fought Pill Farnan in Australia in ISl. He was then reported as being a wonderfully clever and hard-hitting boxer. His defeat of Tom Lees for the championship of Australia in lj brought him more prominently to the rront. Peter rested on the laurels won lrom Le s until April, 1, when he arrived in ian Fiancisc ami immediately became a factor in American pugilism. His lirst public appearance in this country was with Con Iteardon in a, friend.'., bout. George Godfrey,, of Boston, was at that time considered the bosn colored heavy weight lighter in America, so a match was arranged, a H.OuO purse offered by tne California A. C, for which the men uattletl on Aug. '2i, Ihs, Jackson winning in nineteen rounds. Tho pugilistic bee was buzzing in "Pig Joe" McAuliffe's ear about this time, and as Joe allowed he could beat the Australian black the California A. C. hung up to give Joe a chance to make his word good. McAullffe stood about six feet four inches. He was long on he ight but short on science, so Peter trimmed him In twenty-four rounds. Jackson then took Patsy Cardiff into camp in ten rounds, after which he wended Iiis way eastward, meeting ail comers. He reached Chicago in July, 1SS3, and on the 11th of that month knocked out Sailor Prown in four rounds. Mike Lynch, Tom Lees, Paddy Prennan, "Ginger" McCormick and Jack Fallon were his next victims. On Aug. 21, ISM), he sailed for England, and, meeting Tom Lees again, they engaged in another off-hand scrap. On Oct. 5 to 13 he met and defeated Alf Mitchell. Jack Partridge, Jem Young, Jack Watts, Caddy Meddings, Alf Ball and Jack Watson. "Parson" Charles E. Davles, who accompanied, or, rather, managed Peter on this trip, then matched him to tight Jem Smith, supposed to be the best man in Enclan.l. The contest took place under the auspices of the Pelican Club, London, Jackson winning in two rounds. Jackson and his party returned to America shortly after that fight, and on Jan. 27, boxed three friendly rounds with Jack Ashton. Two months later Peter scored another victory over Jack Fallon, this time knocking him out In the second round. His next opponent was Gus Lambert, the wrestling pugilist. Peter agreed to lay Gus low in four rounds, but Gus wrestled out the limit. Dick Keating was Jackson's next victim place, Louisville; length of contest, one round. Then came Peter's tight with "Denver Ed" Smith at Battery D. Jackson was sick at the time and was compelle! to ask for a postponement, which Hilly Muldoon, Smith's manager, at first refused. Matters, however, were satisfactorily arranged and the contest took place on May 13, Jackson winning in the fifth round. "On to California," was the watchword with Jackson after trimming Smth. and at Marysville, on July 23, he defeated Tom Johnson. Three days later the colored champion boarded a steamer for Australia, and -on Oct. 21 met Joe Goddard in Melbourne. Jackson agreed to stop Joe in seven rounds, but Goddard was there at the end, ready to continue. Befereo Miller declared the bout a draw. Jackson returned to America, and on May 2L lfcld. fought his memorable- battle with Jim Corbett. The contest was for a purse of $10,(jöü, and took place at the California Athletic Club. The men fought and loafed around the ring for sixty-one rounds, when the referee, seeing no finish in sight, declared it no contest. The fighters received $2,öo0 each, the balance of the purse being withheld by the club. It was claimed for Jackson that he was in no condition to engage in battle, having sprained his ankle by being thrown from a road wagon several days before the contest. 'J he contest and Its result caused a furore in tportlng circles ami bomed Corbctt to the ekies. Jackscn's failure to beat Corbett. despite his condition, was not favorably commented upon by sporting men. Jackson's next public appearance was on Feb. 12, bsa', when he knocked out AI Fish, better known as Jack King, and Jack Dalton. Fi?h or King w?s jolted Into submission in two rounds and Dalton took the count in three. On Feb. 21 Peter sailed for England, and on May CO defeated Frank Slavin at the National Sporting Club in ten rounds in one of the most, desperate and bloodiest battles that ever took placo at that swell English club. Peter, uj-on his return to this country, went to California and later toured the country under Davies's management as Undo Tom in "Uncle Tom's Cabin." In lbHi ho and Jim Corbett met In the Press Club in Chicago and signed articles to right for the heavyweight championship. "Parson" Davles, L. M. Houseman. Eddy Toy anel the writer were witnesses to the codicil, and e verything looked rosy to fight, until Corbett stated the contest must tako placo south of Mason and LMxon's line. Peter said his color would not permit him to tight across the line, so the match fell through. That ended Peter's pugilistic career. He went to England, was wined and dined, lie returned a wreck of his former self and was easily defeated by Jeffries in three rounds. DUST FLOATS IX SEA Allt. Old Mariner Sees o Benson "Why It Should Puxzle Scientists. New Orleans Times-Democrat. "Somttinae ago I read a short sketch In ono of the leading magazine of the country which dealt with one of the mysteries of the sea," said an old mariner, "and after I hud finished it 1 was as much i-r-plexed as ever. The writer was dealing with thj accumulation of dust on vessels in midocean. Put few persons have been able to understand this curious phenomenon, sn l there are really many persons who refuse to believe that dust accumulates on vessels while they aro at sea. It is a, fact, iicve rilie less, and it has caused a deal of wonderment among the old mariners. The problem has be n pretty generally given up as one unsolvabie. Selentirte men have theorized about it. and I observe that the theories of the dust coming from hr.--t one place ar.d then another have all met the same fate, and have finally bem reasoned out cf existence. There eioes not seem to be anything particularly strange about the firct that eiust Is found on the high seas. And if dust may b found on thes broad bodies of water, 1 can see no reason v.hy it should not settle on the various craft that ply these waters. Pir.e particles of dust and other solid subsdunces are unquestionably found in the mists of the sea. 'ihe atme.sphere ef the sea is unquestionably laden with particles of considerable specific gravity, if this were not true, a part of the theory of the evolutionist with reference to the distribution of plant life by hiuh winds would fall and Darwin an.l his collaborators would be left with a part of their theory considerably weakened. Put how is it that these dusty porticles are squeezed, as it were, out of the w-t mists or the sea? What causes these particles to settlo on the ships that ply the ocean? "These questions present no difficult problem from my way of looking at the mutter. In the first place, these dusty particles found in the atmosihere at sea have a greater specific gravity than other atomic

Now, any resistance eiffrretl to the r"gular e-urs" and t ven flow of tho currents in the air would tend to givo these dust particles a downward shove, if I may say it, because they are heavier than the air in which they lloat. Ibis is exactly wh.it the vessel eloes. P.ut P. eioes more than this, r.nd brings another force into play which tends to lraw the eiust particles toward the vessel. Th movement of the ship bnnss an attractive force, a centripetal force, if j-ou please, into play, and this fact tends to gather in the pnrtich'S that are clready .strussling to itiaka their way towarel the center of the etat!., tio le"re we have two things, two lore -s worUrg apparently In perfect harmony, and each having the same tendency so far as the dust particles r.ro conccrneel. 1 believe this is the way it all happens, nnd while making no pretensions to scientific knowledge, the theory seems to me to be well p.rottnded in reason. It may sound a trirlc curious to talk about squeezing dust cut of waiter, but this is exactly what happens, ami the squeezing is simply the work of natural forces." PASSING OF THE HABITANT. Changed Appearance of the Conntry Along: the Lower St. Lawrence. Quebec Leiter in Nov York Post. Among Canada's 1,500,000 of French-speaking people there is still a fair percentage left to represent the old habitant type. Put here, as elsewhere, "tho old order cli angcth," and one of the most Interesting and picturesque races of the Western continent wdll soon belong to the things of the past. The leaven of modernization is already actively at work. The river and lake steamers have supplanted the voyageur, and a railway could not be run in eastern Canada which would not bisect a few thousand habitant farms. It Is twenty-five years since my last visit to Quebec. Unless I be obliged to come, I hope it may be twenty-five more before I come again. Such a statement may puzzle some of those thousands of tourists who mark their days in Quebec with lare red letters. Tor myself, I should change tho name of the city to Ichabod, for surely Its glory is depaited. It has been modernized to death. 1 visited the city with delightful memories of its attractiveness. To-day the place might be almost anywhere. Its antiquity is hidden by a forest ot poles and supports for a tangle of overhead wires for all the different purposes to which electrical wires are now applied. The old gates are gone, though one or two have been replaced by new structures whose bridges are effectively and harmoniously decorated with the omnipresent wdres and crowned with poles and arc lamps. Preakneck stairs, and their kindred, have given place to modern stairways, and an edevator runs from the lower city, near the market, up the face of the cliff to the terrace above. 1 prefer the memory of Quebec as it was when 1 last saw it. The caieche Is still here, but it is too distinctively the vehicle of the tourist, whose trade alone has insured its continuance up to the present time. It is even now out of harmony with its surroundings. The appearance of the country through out the eastern townships, as the southern shore of the lower St. Lawrence river country is called, is not materially altered. Tho change there is rather with the people. There are the same endless miles of rail fences bordering farms whoso length is measured in miles, and whose width is counted by feet. Until ono realizes the origin of and the reason for the remarkable shape of these tracts they are both ridiculous and puzzling. Put there is ample cause and reason for the arrangement. In the old days of French possession and control of this vast area crown grants were issued to favored subjects. At that time the great river was the principal, almost the only, highway. The northern shore is wiid and mounainous, the land of the Laurentian hills. The southern shore, being far more favorable for occupation and cultivation, was the customary site of these grants. The grantees subdivided their tracts for rent, and later for sale, to their tenants, so that each might have an ample area of arable land, pasture and forest land, and, in addition, fishing rights in the river. In the early days these subdivisions were wont to be made of about 7s5 feet frontage by 7,t50 feet in depth, running inland. Further division has followed, in later days, usually by halving or quartering tho farm alomj the line of its length Inland. Thus many farms of to-day have a river frontage of some 2uu feet and an inland run of about one and one-third mile. Later on, an alleged highway, following tho general course of the river, opened the country to the southward, and the same system was followed along Its route. This may be given as the original cause of the long and narrow farm of the habitant. The reason of it lies In the fact that. In a country of long winters and deep snows, it is far easier to keep open one long straight stru t than it is to break roads in all directions to farm houses scattered over an immense area. It is also far more conducive to general sociability. The result is that from Quebec, almost from Montreal, eastward along the river and the road, tho landscape shows almost continuous dotted lines, the tlots being the little bouses of the habitants bordering on road and river. The voyageur and the carter have gone the way of the ol.l American stage-driver. The young people of the region have gone, by thousands, to find employment In the mills ot .N. w England. Otht rs are cmployed by tke transportation lines and the industries which have followed those lines into the country of the habitant. Tho maintenance of the picturesque life of these historic people th-pended upon their isolation, ami the iselatim exists no longer. The old feudal system, with its established rights and customs, was superseded In li01. With the reli-dous life of the region, tho laws of the land have had lesa to do, and change In that important department cf habitant II 1 e is less noticeable than in other lines. Except that, in the main, a ready and willing allegiance is re ndend to their spiritual leaders, one miht say that they were priest-rid It n as badly as ever were the Filipinos. Put tho priesthood is generally respected and lovel. and many of its members are from among the people themselves. Churches are built by a tax levied upon the real estate of all liornau Catholics In Its vicinity, and these taxes, are collectable by law, like the taxes of the government. Wayside shrines are numerous, and a system which wouid lind much of keen opposition in most lands meets little here save support and ai proval. The r..tah?e change In the life of these people; follows the lin of the inevitable inbuence of t luser contact with a larger and more crarctie world. The old life was that of all isolated pastoral i-eopie who want cut as plm .- rs. catrying with them more of good race stock than of worldly poods. The shriek of the locomotive whistle sound the death warrant of all such lite. The end may come by gradual decay through modification of old customs and the adoption of new, but. with the advent of thtf railroad and the telegraph, the et. 1 is only a question of time. The old well-sweep of the habitant is pivint? way to the jiump, anel in time the pump will be superseded by the gravity pressure and the faucet. There is much f beauty ia the simplicity of the e.ld habitant life, but tne world of to-day has no use for ornaments of that kind. The forests aro good for timber, and wood-pulp and matches. The fields are wanted fer hay and oats, and for butter and cheese. Put the! richest contribution which the Canadian habitant brings to the new world into which he must new come is his wealth of story and legend of history nnd narrative. In that line, he hxs no rival on this side the Atlantic. Wo in an Observing Faculty. New York Journal.
