    fhibet is a much larger country than
most people suppose. It has an area of
about 760,000 square miles and a popula
tion of about 8,000,000 souls, according
to the New York Mail and Express.
The example of Pittsburg, which lost
its old pre-eminence as the smoky city
upon the introduction of natural gas
into general use, is likely, predicts the
New York Commercial Advertiser , to be
contagious.
Canadian papers complain that their
country seems to be regarded as a sort of
penal colony by England. A young man
who was convicted of larceny before a
London magistrate a few days ago was
let off on his friends promising to send
him to Canada at once.
The Cincinnati Enquirer rolates that
when one Charles Weber stood up in a
court in that city the other day for ex
amination as to his qualifications as a
juror, he was asked how many children
he had. He declined to answer what he
considered an irrelevant question, and
appealed to the court . He was ordered
to answer, and said he was the father of
five pairs of twins, all alive and healthy.
He was accepted as a juror.
One of the most lamentable features
of the Concmaugh disaster is the fact
that such a great number of children
have been left orphans. When the im
mediate wants of the .sufferers shall have
been supplied and avenues of work opened
up, the Philadelphia Telegraph suggests
that whatever money there may be left
could not be better applied than in the
creation of a permanent fuud to help
maintain and educate these helpless
waifs—the flotsam and jetsam of a flood
of death and ruin.
In September, 1690, the, first paper
mill in America was erected in Rox- '
borough, Philadelphia. The first paper- (
maker was Wilhelm Rittenhousen, now 1
anglicized into William Rittenhouse. It
is now proposed to celebrate the bi- \
centennial of this event in September, j
1890, and the paper-makers and the print- |
ers of the United States are asked to
send delegates to a preliminary meeting,
to be held in Philadelphia next Septem
ber. On the advice and with the ap
proval of Mr. G. W. Cliilds, Horatio
Gates Jones, of Philadelphia, has sent u j
circular embodying these facts to mem- j
bers of the trade throughout the United j
States.
Says the New York Tribune: "The j
Governor of Maine on one occasion j
signed a bill and then changed his mind,
erased his signature and wrote a veto
instead. This gave rise to an interesting
controversy over the question whether,
when a bill was signed, it was not a law, -
which could only be annulled by the
action of the Legislature itself. The
matter was carried to the courts, which j
have just decided that tho veto was
authoritative. The right of a woman to !
change her mind has long been conceded
by common consent. We believe this is
the first case on record in which a man's
right to do the same has been declared j
with the sanction of law."
Tt is a memorable fact that the United |
States, where there is a doctor for every
aggregate of 600 human beings, show the
lowest death rate in the world. The
average life expectancy in the United
States is now fifty-five years. In Eng- j
land, among the inhabitants of towns it is |
fifty, and among the rural population |
more than fifty-four. Russians and !
Chilians have a life expectancy of but
twenty-eight, years. In Home the aver
age life expectancy is now forty years,
whereas it was but eighteen in the time
of the Coesars. In the England of Eliza
beth it was only twenty. This great
and progressive improvement, is ascribed
to better drainage and diet, greater per
sonal cleanliness, to vaccination, better
medical knowledge, the use of ana?sthe
tics and febrifuges. It is estimated that
quinine alone has added two years to the
average life of civilized man.
The amount of money now in course of
expenditure for experimental work in
agriculture amounts to no less than $720,-
000 annually. Of this §595,000 is ap
propriated by the United States Govern
ment, the remainder, $125,000, being
given by the States. This is 1n addition
to the very large amounts which have
been given to agricultural colleges, in
all equaling twenty-five or thirty million
dollars, the interest of which is used in
tho maintenance of these institutions.
Capitalizing the $720,000 spent yearly at
three per cent, would give $2-1,000,000,
so that the funds now in use for the bene
fits of agriculture in the way of education
amount in the aggregate to $50,000,000.
It will be the fault of the farmers, de
clares the New York Timet, if this pro
fuse expenditure is not made valuable to
them. At present, however, not one
fanner in a thousand gets any ndequate
value from it, and it is somewhat diffi
cult to determine just how it can bo
soado as uteful u it should be.
ODD OCCUPATION.
RIDDING PARKS AND CEMETER-,
IKS OP PESTS.
An Expert Who Destroys Small Anl-<
mats by Thousands —His Methods ,
and the Results of His Work
—A Unique Employment.
In these times when the cry goes up on
every hand that all callings are over
crowded, it seems unlikely that there
should be a man who has a monopoly of
a particular occupation, yet Frederick
Wcgner is such a person. His business
is the trapping of moles and other out-of-:
door enemies to beautiful lawns and gar-,
dons. He was until two years ago em
ployed in Greenwood Cemetery at his
specialty, but having rid the place of
pests now does work for any one who is
willing to pay for his services. He has
within the last two years been employed
to clear Woodlawn Cemetery, part of
Central Park,the estate of William Rock
fellcr, near Tarrytown, and those of A.
H. Kfng and H. L. Hoyt, of the Victoria
Hotel, at Great Neck. L. 1., and a ceme
tery near Troy,of moles and other obnox
ious burrowers, and in every case he has
been completely successful.
In Central Park he was hired to work
from Pifty-ninth to Eighty-second streets,
and while not a mole can be found below
the latter street, above it-they arc numer
ous. A Tribune reporter called on this
nineteenth century Pied Piper of Ilame
lin recently at his home, and learned
something about his history and methods
of work. He is'a German by birth,rather
small in stature, somewhat bent from age
and much stooping at his work, anil his
face is deeply bronzed from the out-of
door life that he has led. Apparently he
is not over forty-five years old, although
he is really nearer sixty than forty-five.
When asked when he first went into
the business of trapping, he said: "Why,
I began when a boy. When I was about
ten years old the country around Roed
lnnd, Bavaria, where I lived, was so
overrun with field mice that it was al
most impossible to raise any crops. Every
remedy was tried, but the little pests
seemed to increase until the farmers were
at their wits' ends. Finally the board of
aldermen, as you would call it here, of
Roedland, and several surrounding vil
lages, passed laws compelling every farmer
to bring the bodies of forty dead mice
to the council chamber every day, tinder
penalty of a gulden, or forty cents, for
each failure to do so. The number was
afterward increased to 100 and the fine
to a dollar. Many did not know how to
catch them, and to escape paying the
penalties were glad to buy tho mice. I
got a number of old-fashioned traps and
set to work, catching forty or fifty of the
creatures at first and gradually increasing
the number to nearly 1000 a day. I
made a good deal of money for a little
fellow like myself, j\nd pretty soon the
neighborhood was cleared.of the pests."
Wegner came to this country some
thirty-nine years ago, but did not en
gage in trapping. In 1876 he was made
a watchman in Greenwood Cemetery.
The place was then simply overrun with
chipmunks, moles, field-mice, snakes,
muskratß and skunks. The ground was
furrowed in every direction by tho in
dustrious creatures, and the roots of the
plants were eaten, so that it was difficult
to keep any flowers or shrubs growing
about the graves. Efforts were made to
trap tho beasts, but so few were caught
that there was no abatement in the nifis
ance.
Recalling his youthful feats as a trap
per, Wegner set to work to exterminate
the harmful breeds. It took two years
of hard work, but at the end of that
lime few moles or field mice troubled the
sward of Greenwood. In this time
2882 moles fell victims to his trap, and
nearly 1000 garden snakes were cut into
by his spade. Not until 28,000 chip
munks had been killed was the place
clear of these pests, a*td in the first sum
mer, Wegner trapped 5080 field mice.
For each kind of prey a different kind
of trap is used. The mole trap is the in
vention of the trapper himself. It is a
hollow block of wood with two wire
loops attached to a spring on tho inside.
In the centre of the block is a plug, which
is tied to the spring in such a way that
when the plug is disturbed the spring
flies up, and the animal is caught in
the wire noose. The trap is buried ex
actly in the course left by the mole,
which invariably travels through its old
hole again and is lassoed. Field mice,
the trapper said, require a quicker trap
than moles. They breed so rapidly,
however, that it seems impossible to ex
terminate them with traps, so Wegner
experimented with various poisons until
he learned one that was largely eaten by
field mice and snakes, but let alone by
all other animals. This poison he strewed
with a liberal hand, and in a few months
every mouse was gone.
Chipmunks were even more numerous
than field mice and equally destructive
to the work of the landscape gardeners
These little striped creatures not only
destroy the roots of plants, but honey
comb the toll with their hole*. Unlike
the moles, which burrow just beneath
the surface, chipmunks dig straight
down for a distance of five or six feet
* and have number of their holes con
nected. In one yew Wegner trapped
i 14,000 of these rodents, but they con
tinue to multiply, so he tried various
kinds of poison until he discovered one
which they relished, and in not many
months few of them were left to disport
themselves. The bonks of the lakes of
Greenwood also contain the subterranean
castles of a few muskrats, twenty-four of
which were captured in the steel claws
of Wegner's traps; seven skunks met a
similar fate. The snakes were dispatched
either by poison or a spade with a blade
as sharp fts a knife. Wegner has killed
any number of snakes In this way, in
cluding some dangerous big black snakes
but he has never been bitten yet.
After he had cleared Greenwood of its
colonies of "varmints," Wegner was em
ployed as a watchman, but two years ago
he gave this up to become a professional
trapper. new calling has been a pay
ing one, as his services are in great de
mand and, as is always the case with a
man who has no rivals in business, he has
only to ask his price and it is cheerfully
paid. There are, of course, men em
ployed in every cemetery and large parks
to trap moles and other obnoxious ani
mals, but none of them makes a business
of it and all of them are so much less suc
cessful than Wegner ffeat lie does not
even regard them as trappers. "Call them
trappers," he said, sneeringly, "why, I
caught more moles at Wood lawn in two
days than all their men trapped iu two
years. I love tho business. I would
rather be out setting my traps or cutting
snakes in two with my spado
than do anything else I know.
' There's lot's of men that would like to
learn to be trappers, and one of them of
fered me $4(10 last year to let lirni go
with mo for four months, but 1 said no.
I won't sell anybody ouc of my patent
inole traps, and nobody but my son
knows what kind of poisons I use for
field mice and chipmunks. When I get
too old to work he will take all my traps
and go into the business, because I dou't
want to see it get out of the family."
Wegner u'lways keeps account of tho
animals lie kills each day, and estimates
that in the few years that he has devoted
to trapping, he has rid the world of
nearly 100,000 moles, chipmunks, wood
chucks,.snakes, field mico and other pests.

An Indian Romance.
An interesting romance has just come
to light at White's Indian Manual Labor
Institute, near Wabash, Ind., where
Indian children are being educated at
Government expense. It has been dis
covered that Lizzie Carlow, a half-breed
Sioux Indian maiden from the Pine Kidgc
Agency in Dakota, has rich and influential
relatives in Baltimore and at Zanesville,
Ohio. Her father, John Carlow, left
Baltimore twenty years ago for the Black
Hills, und he has not since been seen by
his Eastern relatives. Years ago Carlow
married an Indian woman and the little
girl now at the institute here was the re
sult of the union. Recently Carlow,who
is still in the West, sent Lizzie's photo
graph and one of her mouthly merit cards
given by the institute to his relatives,
which was their first intimation of her
existence. They have become greatly
intcre-sted and have written to have Lizzie
pass her coming vacation with them.
The girl went to Zanesville to see her
aunt, whose husband is Superintendent
of the Water Works at that place.— Qlobe-

Proprietor and Reporter.
They tell in Chicago a story about
Uncle Joseph Medtll, the owner of Jthe
Chicago Tribune, and a new reporter of
that paper. The reporter Was sent the
other evening to write up a reception,
lie got along all right until he met a tine
looking, gray-bearded old gentleman, the
center of a group of iitdies and gentlemen.
As is customary, apparently, in Chicago,
the reporter entered the group and got the
names of thoae present, but when he
asked for the old gentleman's he was un
swered by a loud and exasperating "Eh?"
"I should like your name, please."
"Eh? What? Speak louder!" yelled the
old gentleman, putting his-hand to his
ear. The reporter tilled his lungs with
air and then yelled: "I am a reporter
and would like your name!" "Oh, re
porter, eh? "What paper?" "The Tribune;
will you please give me your name?" The
old mail looked at the young man kindly,
stroked his beard, and said, quietly,
"Joseph Medill."
A movement is on foot in Austrian
military circles to establish army and
navy stores on the English system. A
similar society in the German army has
been very successful.
In 1870 the total assessed valuation of

The Interviewer In England.
Allan Fonnan, editor of the New York
J&urnalitt, writes as follows from Lon
don:
"American newspaper men often won
der at the absence of the interview in the
London papers, and attribute it to lack
of enterprise on the part of London jour
nalists. This is not so, as any American
newspaper man in London would soon
find out. The secret of the difficulty lies
in the fact that English prominent men
refuse to be interviewed, and as the big
fish fight shy the sprats and minnows of
English society and politics follow their
example. The English nobleman is, so
to speak, 'elected' from birth. He has
nothing to gain from the press and he
has a lofty and not altogether an unjusti
fied contempt for the reporter who lives,
nobody knows how, taking stenographic
notes at a pound a week. When the re
porter sends in his card and requests an
interview the nobleman resents it as an
impertinonce and refuses. We know
t.lmt it is a matter of comparatively little
trouble to secure an interview with the
President of the United States. Try the
same thing with the Prince of Wales and
you will be met with a polite, extremely
courteous, but none the less firm, refusal
through Sir Francis Knollys, who will
inform you, that 'lt. IB contrary to the
practice of Ilis Royal Highness to grant
interviews unless he has the pleasure of
being personally acquainted with the ap
plicant for one; I have, therefore, to ex
press His Royal Highness' regret that he
is unable to have the gratification of
complying with your request.' This is
of course very gentlemanly and soothing
to the feelings of the applicant,but when
you think how difficult it would be Tor
the average newspaper worker to gain
the personal acquaintance of the Prince
you realize what a large and emphatic
'no' is conveyed by the pleasing cloak of
high-bred courtesy.
"I am convinced that should the Prince
once throw open the door and allow him
self to be interviewed the example would
be followed quickly enough by other Eng
lishmen of high rank and position, and a
revolution in English journalism would
follow in a week. The English papers
would contain opinions of leaders in
English life instead of the conclusions of
the editors. The verbatim reports would
be cut down to give place to what we
know as'live news.' The machine report
er would disappear nnd the shrewd, en
terprising interviewer would take his
place. That the English like to read
that sort of thing is proved by the
avidity with which they follow the writ
ing of Labouchere, Sala, and a few others
who are able to write interviews because
they have the 'pleasure of a personal ac
quaintance, of the interviewed. That the
barriers are slowly being broken down
there is no doubt, and that an English
Duke or Prince will be as accessible to
newspaper men as an American President
is within the range of possibility in a
very few years."
A Foolhardy Indian.
Until a few years ago the Arikara
Indians living at Port Berthold, on fhe
Upper Missouri (Dakota), held a series
of interesting ceremonies, conducted by
their medicine men. These ceremonies,
says a writer in the Philadelphia /Ve#s,
usually occupying about seven weeks,
were attended by Indian visitors from all
directions. At the conclusion of them
one day was generally set apart for an
extraordinary display of what might be
termed allegorical exhibitions, which
took place in the open air around the
vicinty of the sacred or medicine lodge.
It was customary, at _such times, for
one of.the medicine men to 'display feats
of courage—though they were in reality
conjuring—and one of the tricks was for
the medicine man to stand up and allow
a confederate to shoot at him with a rifle,
the principal to catch the ball between
his teeth. It happened upon one of
these occasions that the "fellow"'
made a public challenge, as usual,for any
one to step forward and discharge a gun
at him. At previous times the medicine
man Would load his own gun in the pres
ence of the tribe, but on account of a
slot filed in the barrel of the rifle the ball
escaped, and there was no harm in the
charge of powder; the ball itself was
hidden under his tongue, and would be
seen by the Indians after the discharge,
of course, between his teeth.
In the last instance, the reservation
(compelling the challenged man to use the
medicine man's gun) was omitted. •! a
Cree Indian, from the Northwest Terri
tory, who, by the way, had a drudge
against the Arikara, immediately accepted
the challenge and stopped back to fire.
The Arikara was fully aware of his dan
ger, as his enemy was armed with a Win
chester, but rather than be designated a
coward he stepped back to receive the
shot. The Cree fired, and the Arikara
(ell, the ball having passed through his
forehead.
In England check reins are now en
tirely out of use, being forbidden by
law.
Among the American Indians there are
28,663 church member*.
"That man who just went out had a
head so large I hadn't a hat in the store
that would fit him," said the hatter, a#
he put away a hat nearly as big as a coal
scuttle.
"Who was he?"
"I don't know. He is connected with
Police Department. I think. Did you
evwr notice," he went on,."what large
heads these policemen have? Nearly
•very one of them wears a hat larger than
the average. The Irish as a race have
enormous heads. There are some Ger
mans in town who have large heads, but
their bodies are correspondingly mam
moth."
"What is the largest size of hat you
keep?"
"A 7*. There are 7$ sizes made; that
is what the man who just went out of
here wanted, but I didn't have it. Post
master Sackett wears a 7{s hat. He has
one of the largest heads in town; you
might not think it, but he is a big man
and well proportioned.— Buffalo (N. T.)
Courier.
Insurance for Physical Wrecks.
The newest thing in the way of life
insurance, or, more properly speaking,
death insurance, has within a few days
established itself in this city, and the
peculiar feature about this company is
that it gains more by the death of its
policy holders than by their prolonged
existence. Under the plan upon which
the scheme is operated, the insured pays a
certain amount per year up to five years.
If lie dies within that period, his heirs
receive the amount he has paid in without
interest. If lie lives beyond five years,
his heirs fare better, for they receive what
he has paid in with interest. If he is so
fortunate as to survive ten years, he is
entitled to the full face of his policy, pro
vided the company survives. It is not
necessary to say that no medical exami
nation attends the would-be insurer's ap
plication and that complete physical
wrecks arc in demand.— St. Louis Star-
Sayiligs.
Nose-Boring.
Another case of nose-boring has re
cently come to light. This time the nasal
appendage was the property of Charles
Knapp, of Delanco, N. J., which was
knocked oil iu a railroad accident about
three years ago. A couplo of skillful sur
geons soon succeeded in replacing the
severed member, but their substitute
lacked a nostril, and breathing through
it was an impossibility until after several
applications of an electrical cauterizing
needle, by which the obstacle was over
come. In all other respects the nose was
as good as new.— Times-Democrat.

A Farm School for Street Arabs.
There is a queer "ttle school on an'
island down Boston harbor, known M 1
the farm school, and it is truly a Bo«-
tonian institution. Over fifty years ago
it was organized for "idle and morally
exposed" boys, and Thompson's Island!
was bought. The school is not a reforma
tory, however, and now admits no boy!
objectionable from a moral standpoint.
Over 1600 boys have been educated'
there, and have gone from their water
surrounded alma mater to positions of
honor and trust. Reading, spelling,
writing, arithmetic, geography, gram-,
mar, history, drawing, instrumental and
vocal music are taught. There aTe shops
in which they become skilled in the use
lof tools and learn trades. A few days
ago the friends and relatives of the boys
\ went to the island on a special steamer to.
inspect the school and have a grand time..
It was the first visit since last November.

Gull's Eggs.
Gull's eggs are among the curiosities
of the San Francisco market. They are
twenty-five cents a dozen, and are brought
chiefly from the Farallones in the fishing
schooners. The handsome eggs of the
murr bird will also be introduced
into the market within the next
two or three weeks. The gull's egga are
said to taste a little fishy, as might be
expected, but the "murr" eggs are as
great a delicacy as the plover's of the
Old World, which they greatly resemble.
