TOPICS OF THESE TIMES.

A YOUTHFUL PHENOMENON. Youthful precocity is not uncommon. “Young America” is pre-, dominant and paramount, and the exhibitions of his enterprise and genius are received with pleasure and generous encouragement as a rule. Very seldom, however, is such a phenomenon developed as was accidentally discovered by the Brooklyn police on the morning of June 14. A boy of 15 was found asleep on a wharf at’daylight. He gave his ra ue promptly as Geo. Wilson. Said he had missed his boat and would fail to finish a horse trade bn which be was engaged. That his mother and father were both dead and had left him a large fortune in the hands of a trustee. That he was taking care of himself and was making an jncome of 125 a week trading horses. Pulling out a gold watch he looked at the time and said he was sorry he had missed the boat as his customer would be disappointed. Said he had two horses in a livery stable at Flatbush. The police were staggered by his effrontery and the manner he carried himself. His readiness and assurance were wonderful wso young a boy. but the police took him in charge for investigation. They soon discovered that he was a runaway named Geo. De Wint. That his story was a picturesque fabrication made up on the instant, tfhat he had hired a horse from a stable paying a deposit of $lO, but had never returned the animal, and had sold .it. He was found to have hired a bicycle and had Sold that. He had plenty of money, and is a handsome gentlemanly fellow who would easily deceive any one. A World reporter tried to interview the boy, but was sawed off promptly by the dignified response: “I do not care to say anything more for the papers.” This with the haughty aih of a bank President who can not be bothered. His* parents were found, who testified that he had been a lawless child since he was four years old. His escapades have been numerous and startling, and the parents are at a loss to know what to do with him. They idolize the phenomenal youth but would not go to the police station to see him. He will probably be placed in a reformatory, but the New York papers in lengthy editorials protest against this, and urge that he is worth saving at a post of great work and patience.

FORCED BALLOTS.

Americans have long prided themselves on their advanced ideas in reference to the right of suffrage, but they have in the main regarded it as only a right, or privilege, and not as a legal obligation or implied dqty of citizenship. The Belgian Parliament has of late been engaged in revising the constitution of that limited monarchy, and under the pressure of the advanced socialistic ideas which have taken so strong a hold upon the masses in Europe, and especially on the continent, in Germany, France and Begium, have so reformed the franchise as to make the suffrage in that country universal. The Chamber of Deputies has also passed a clause providing for compulsory voting on the part of the local electors. Should this clause becoipe a part of the constitution by the concurrence of the upper House of Parliament, a political experiment will have been begun that will be watched with interest. Under this provision the right to vote is made a duty as imperative as jury service, and the voter is constrained to exercise his power by fines or other penalties for his neglect to do so. Opinions -Varyas to the probable result of the innovation in Belgium, and its probable adoption in other countries has given rise to much speculation. In the United States, should compulsory voting become the rule, many surprises would be developed, and the standing of parties be more accurate_ly, ascertained. On the whole the proposed reform is not desirable in the United States, as the policy of voters in the \past of refraining in large numbers from exercising the right to vote when -displeased with the nominees or policy of their party is quite as effective. Americans do ‘ not need to be driven to the polls. They understand their duties as citizens, and can express their sentiments by silence quite as emphatically as if their votes had been recorded for the nominees of their po litical enemies.

A BIG STEAL. The way of the frugal money saver is oftimes beset with pitfalls, and many are the traps that sharpers set for the unwary victim who would fain turn his little hoard into productive capital. The various schemes in different parts of the country that promise to return 11,000 on an Investment of SIOO in an incredibly

short' time are numerous and are bare-faced swindles in nearly every case. Only the most verdant people are- misled by their specious claims and impossible plans. The Eastern States are better guarded in this respeci than the great West, and the plethoric savings banks Of Massachusetts, and Connecticut are standing object lessons that attest the wisdom of ~the policy that has made wild-cat banking and insurance ventures a practical impossibility in those States. Nevertheless the sharper has got in a very large day’s work in the Bay State in the guise of endowment orders. Insurance Commissioner Merrill, in his annual report, says the entire insurance in force at the end of the year in Massachusetts was $4,077,168,144, and the number of policies 1,471,068. With the passage of the act to wind up the eight remaining endowment orders the last chapter of the extraordinary craze was written. During their brief existence fifty-six of these corporations gathered a membership of 365,000 and collected from certificate holders $12,500,000. Nine per cent, of the membership received in payment of matured certificates $3,060,000 and sick benefits of qbout $2,000,000 were paid. Nearly $4,000,000 —one-half undeniably a clear steal—went into the pockets of the promoters of the swindles, leaving at the end only about $3,500,000 for distribution among the remnant of 330,000 members, they receiving only a trifle more than was paid to the 35,000 members who were “on the ground floor,” which list of course included the “supremes” and and their relatives and friends-

RUSSIAN COURTESY. Courtesy between great nations is the exchange of civilities and the mutual respect by each for the forms anffUsages rendered obligatory, implied, at least, by the concessions rendered by one nation at the solicitation of the representatives of another power. The recent Russian treaty entered into between the government of the and the United States, whereby we are obligated to deliver over all political offenders to the tender mercies of the worst despotism on earth is an example of •this. Naturally citizens of the United States have expected that they would be accorded some privileges when they desired to travel in the Czar’s dominions in return for the very great advantages which our Government has seen fit to place at the disposal of that tyrannical monarch. A Russian edict of the past has permanently excluded exiled Russians, whether charged with crime or not. A delegation of these citizens, former subjects of the Czar, recently appealed to Secretary Gresham to beg the Czar to relax this edict so as to

give them the privilege of visiting in Russia. These exiles were in no sense criminals, but simply emigrants who have become citizens of the United States, and are as such entitled to all the rights and privileges of na-tive-born Americans. The Secretary of State is ready to grant them passports, but the Czar stubbornly refuses to permit the persons who have in times past left his domains to become citizens of this Republic to set foot on their native soil. The circumstance is not surprising. The exiles, homesick as they doubtless are, are to be congratulated on the frankness exhibited by the Russian government in telling- them in advance what they had to expect should they have the hardihood to place themselves once more within reach of the paws of the Russian bear. Thev would undoubtedly be promptly sent to Siberia if they dared to visit the scenes of their childhood, inspite of all intervention by the United States or other foreign powers. The attitude of the Russian government in the matter would seem to justify, or even demandthe abrogation of all existing treaties between that power and our government

The World’s Agriculture.

St. Louis Globe-Democrat Only 43 per cent, of the arable land in Austro Hungary is cultivated. In 1602 beans and peas were grown in New England territory by Gosnold. In 1627 the New York price of a cow was $150; a yoke of oxen, S2OO. Cattle were introduced into Virginia in 1609; into New England in 1624. In 1888 the farmers of this country grew 201,783,000 bushels of potatoes. The land rent roll of Great Britain and Ireland in 1888 was £61,250,000. Russia annually exports over 60, : 000 tons of sugar; Austria over 200,000 tons. Less than one-tenth of the arable land of the Russian Empire is cultivated. . ' Waste land, in Turkey sells at sls per acre; good farming land at SIOO to $l5O. XLiiU A Russian farm averages thirtyfive acres, requiring three men to cultivate it.
