Phoebe’s Friend.

At John Burroughs’ home In the little village of Weatpark, on the Hudson, there are the usual number of bird comedies and tragedies to be found in all leafy retreats, only here is some one to chronicle them and to act as a friend in need. Says a writer in the Outlook: Under the edges of a villa on the hillside near Mr. Burroughs’ home, a phoebe had built her nest There, within arm’s reach of the piazza, the bird was quietly hatcliiag her eggs, undisturbed by the proximity of human neighbors. “I saw her building her nest,” said Mr. Burroughs, "and noticed that she did not seem to have any bump es locality. She Would come flying up here, her beak loaded with mud, and drop It on the rafters. Each time she seemed to forget where she had deposited her load, and the result was that she soon had the building of four or five houses on her hands. "I thought this was rather more than one small bird ought to undertake, so I Interrupted tb4 building operations by pitting stones or blocks of wood on the foundations of all except one of the nests, and In this way concentrated the attention of phoebe upon a •ingle site. “This set her on the right path, and •he went ahead and finished up a house, the one she Is using now.”

Dealing with Crimes in Canada.

(From the Chicago Tlmca-Herald on Jan. 12, 1001.) The citizens of the Dominion of Canada have Just cause to be proud of their record a* law-abiding people. The annual report of the criminal statistics of the Dominion, which has a population of over 6,000,000, »hows that there were only twenty-five indictments for murder In 1899, of which only two were left without final action. Eleven of thoSe Indicted were hanged, nine acquitted and three confined as insane. Canada is a country of vast proportions. Its people are scattered over a wide stretch of territory, making police surveillance particularly difficult and In many districts impossible. Yet a city like New York or Chicago alone furnishes a far greater criminal list every year than the whole vast stretch of territory from Quebec to Vancouver. The Canadians ascribe their' immunity from crime to the promptness with which punishment is meted out to offenders. When a man is caught redhanded in the act of robbing another he is not released on straw bail by some justice of the peace from the slums, to go out and repeat the offense. Sharp and sure Justice is meted out to criminals of all kinds, the result being that when the guardians of the public peace succeed In bringing a thug to the bar they are seldom called upon to hunt him a second time. Furthermore, there are few court delays in Canada when a criminal Is brought to book. They have no Dreyer cases over there. There are no methods whereby Canadian criminals can have the proceedings stayed from month to month and from year to year or after being convicted, appeal from one court to another until witnesses die of old age or opportunities for corruption can be found. Nor does this swift method of treating with wrong doers in Canada leave the Innocent unable to properly defend themselves. They have all the opportunities and privileges that our own laws extend to them. The extent to shield the guilty is lacking—that Is all. The above taken from the editorial column of the Tlmes-Herald gives some Idea of the immunity from crime that exists in Canada, and this Is one of the many inducements held out for Americans to settle in the district known as Western Canada. The season of 1901 will see a few new sections of the country opened up for settlement. They are attractive In every respect. It is understood that one of the best Indian reserves In the famous valley of the Saskatchewan will be opened up this year, and an Invitation Is extended to those desiring homes to make Inquiries. The price of the land is said to be nominal. Besides these lands, the several railway companies have lands to sell; also the government. For particulars write to the agent of the government, whose advertisement appears elsewhere.
