From the Philadelphia North American. .State Senator Bucklla, of Colorade, who has just returned from Australasia, where he has been investigating the colonial tax system by authority of the Colorado legislature, has brought back an Interesting budget of information. He findi that New Zealand ie steadily moving in the direction of the single tax. Local option in taxation prevails there, and one district after another ie putting its taxes on land values. The advanced social legislation in New Zealand on various lines is so popular that the progressive party has remained in power through several elections, and now is almost without opposition. /There are no tramps and no visible destitution in the colony. Land speculation has been killed. Em ployment is more assured than with us, living expenses are less and life is "less strenuous and exhausting." In all the Australian colonies, of course, the governments own the rail roads and telegraphs. There i 6 equal service for all, and trusts do not have the assistance of transportation systems in crushing out competitors. There is no disposition anywhere to return to private ownership. On the contrary, the few remaining private roads arc , going into the possession of the public. j When Senator Bucklin landed at 1 Bluff, on the extreme southern point of , the South Island of New Zealand, he sent a telegram to Auckland, 1,100 miles, for sixpence. The message had i to go for a considerable part of its j journey through a rough and thinly j populated country, and it had to travel fifty miles or more by cable. When Mr. Bucklin got to San Fran cisco he sent a message to his wife in Colorado, about the same distance, and the cost was 75 cents—just six and a half times the New Zealand rate. The dispatch went by land, over a route that was carrying an immense amount of through business, which was lacking in New Zealand, and the cost of trans mitting it must have been much less than in the antipodes. New Zealand and Colorado have a good deal in common. The women vote in both, for one thing. Perhaps when Mr. Bucklin's report is read Colorado may introduce some more New Zealand experiments in this country. Shuttles Off Steam. "Shall we stop our advertising for a while now?" This Is a question that some business men are apt to ask them selves occasionally. Suppose your en gineer asked you: "Shall I stop put ting coal on the fires, sir?" What would you reply? "Why. no—unless you want the engine to stop!"' The advertiser who thinks ho has advertised so long and se steadily that "our name and specialties are well known, and we intend to advertise again when business is better in our line than it appears to be now; the meantime our business won't stop," should pause and think awhile. The engine does not stop the minute the men suspend shoveling in coal. The point Is, however, that when the engine is to be started again, ten times as much will have been lost in power as has been saved in fuel and feed. Using up reserve force never pays. It is a loss, however it may be looked at. The buying public is prone to forget. It Is, moreover, much inare difficult and much more expensive, to regain a lost customer than to prevent his straying away. Are the trusts good for workingmen? Well, the steel trust paid $400,000 to the proprietors of the Joliet steel mills for shutting down and throwing 2,200 men out of work. The proprietors had the S4<X),OOO and the men had to face star vation. We believe it was the trouble of Mr. Carnegie's works that spelled the chances of Mr. Harrison's re-election, and it looks as though the history of eight years ago will repeat Itself this fail. A VAST ARMY. Men Employed in the Minnesota Pin eries This Winter. Contracts for the delivery of about 600,000.000 feet of pine logs to mills in this section by railroad have recently been closed. This ie In addition to*the enormous quantity that will be handled on lodging railroads owned by the com panies that also do the logging. Of these contracts the Wisconsin divisions of the Northern Pacific Road has closed a total of about 260,000,000 feet, part of which will he delivered at this city and part at Ashland. The Duluth & Iron Range Road will haul 160.000.000 feet to this city, and the other iron range roads about 100,000.000 feet. These con tracts are for deliveries during the coming winter, and are an Indication of the activity in the pine lumbering section at he head of the lakes. As much more will be handled in the northeastern part of Minnesota and the Ashland, Wis., districts this winter on roads owned by distinctively logging corporations. In Northern Minnesota alone an army of 15,000 men will attack the standing pine, assisted by thousands of horses and oxen. These men will receive an aggregate monthly wage of about $400,- 000, and they will be employed till the spring breakup. Lumbermen look for a continuation of the present era of ac tivity and high prices for a long time, indeed they expect never to see the low prices for pine of the past few years. The supply is becoming more and more limited year by year, as the forests are entered by such an army of choppsrs, and the standing pine yet re maining uncut is rapidly becoming the property of manufacturing corpora tions large enough to hold till they are ready to cut, while the demand is in creasing at a rate faster than the cap acity of mills. A very large share of lumber cut in this region, especially in lower grades, goes into boxes and pack ing cases, and that the price of these grades should have advanced to per cent in the past nine months is an in dication of how tremendous the de mand for boxes has become. Lumbermen of thla district have nev er before made sales for the succeed ing year before late in the winter, or until sawing began in the spring. But last week sales were made here of 30,000.000 feet of the lowest grades of the cut to be made after next April at top prices. Several mills sold their entire season s cut of these grades, re ceiving $10.60 for what was worth s€.&) last February, sl3 for what then brought $6.50, and $6.60 for a grade that in past years has been considered worth almost nothing and that has been figured as about paying the saw bill. Every lumberman who will dis pose of his product in advance is being Importuned to do so, and 400.000.00q feet of Duluth lumber could be sold In: a week to buyers from New Tork, New England, Eastern Michigan and Chica go. This would be practically all next year's cot for the mills on deep water in this harbor. Shipments by water to these Eastern points out of Lake Superior will exceed 1,000,000,000 feet, and a single months' forwardlngs are more than was sent in a whole summer so lately as 1687. More than 126 ships have been engaged ex clusively in the carrying of lumber from this lake to the East this year, and at prices that have paid profits that would buy the ships at last spring's values. Many a ship contract ed lust spring for the aeason with an agreement that the lessee might buy la ter In the year at a then agreed figure, has already been bought under the op tion out of its own net profits for the summer. Rates hare been more than double the year before, and for most of the season there have been half a dozen cargoes for every available vessel. For the first time railroads have In vaded the cargo market and have car ried scores of million of feet of tim ber from here to points as far East as Pittsburg and Central Pennsylvania, making rates satisfactory to them selves under those the ship interests would accept. Timber lands have doubled and tre bled in price the past season, and are still advancing, with sales amounting to millions of dollars monthly.—Minne apolis Times. A Horseless Farmer. For 30 years William Johnson, a far mer near Kokomo, Ind., has run a farm of six acres and never had a horse on the place. He is known throughout the section as "the horseless farmer." He raises corn, potatoes, cabbage, celery, melons and all kinds of vegetables, all the land being under cultivation. John son does all the werk himself by hand planters and hand harvesters. Kven the marketing is all done by hand. He trundles hi 9 crops to town in a wheel barrow, making an average of three trips a day the year round. In the 3d years Johnson and his wheelbarrow have travelled 165,060 miles—nearly seven times around the world. When a boy he was kicked by a horse, and since then he has had nothing to do with horses. —N. Y. Tribune. Killarney Lakes Bring $225,000. The largo hall of the Ancient con cert rooms was crowded at the auc tion sale of the Muckross estate, which includes the Lakes ef Killarney. The bidding started at £35.000. but the price soon jumped te £45,000. Then the bid ding slackened, but crawled up slow ly. by £SOO at a time, till it reached £60,000. The vender then bid £51,000, and the sale wae adjourned. Three Dublin solicitors were practically the only bidders. Tt is announced that pri vate tenders for the estate will now be considered.- Dublin Cor. Chicago Inter Policeman's Unique Excuse. Officer Charles Kemble, of Long Isl and City, N. Y., was charged with be ing absent from duty for ewe hour. He excused himself on the ground that he overslept while in a Turkish bath. "Tt is a fact," said Police Commis sioner A bell, "that Turkish baths are very seductive. The next time you go Into one insist upon the attendants' rousing you In time, though he perish in the attempt." The Commissioner, after administer ing a gentle reprimand to the officer, dismissed the case. It has been asserted that a captive balloon at Eitoourt should easily be able to make signals to the balloon at Ladysmith, heliographlng by day and flashing signals at night. HOUSE OF SORROW. The Traveler Couldn't Expect Very Effusive Courtesy. The Colonel halted his horse in front of a Dakota dugout and uttered a vig orous "Hello!" and after a minute a tow -headed girl of about 16 years of age showed up and looked him over and *aid: • Now then, what ye whoopin* fur anc? who be ye?" ' Can I get anything to eat here?" "Not a thing." ' And water for my horse?" ' The spring's gone dry." "How* far is it to the river?" • Dunno." "Please ask your father to step out." i "Pop's bin on a drink for a week." | "And your mother?" "She's got the toothache. That's her crying." "Haven't you got a brother?" "Yep, but he got snake-bit yesterday j and don't feel well." # "Well, what about you?" persisted ! the Colonel. "You seem to be all right." J "Oh, but 1 ain't," she replied, as she made ready to disappear. "I was to git I married yesterday, but my fellow got I shot by an Injun, and it'll take two 1 weeks to ketch on to another.

One evening, when dressed for the character of Sir Bril liant Fashion, he strutted into the greenroom with the buckles sparkling on his shoes and a fine diamond an his fingers. A brother actor inquired if his gems were real. "To be sure they are; T wear nothing but diamonds," was , the reply, whereupon Bannister re- j marked: "I congratulate you. Bob, for I remember when you wore nothing but paste." Palmer did not take the joke with becoming good humor, and an an gry altercation ensued, which was on ly broken when Mrs. Jordan cried out: "Why don't you stick him against the wall, Bob? Stick him against the wall!" —Argonaut. Then He Quit. Dr. Emily Blackwell, one of the pio neers of her sex in medicine, heard a young physician deliver a fierce dia tribe against opening the doors of the profession to women.

SAVING SYSTEM. That of France Tends to Form Habits of Thrift. ! The Government report on the oper -1 ations of the savings banks of France in 1897 shows that the thrifty habits of the French people in the matter of small savings are well maintained. The aggregate amount due depositors at the end of the year was $661,329,700, an increase of about $4,000,000 over the preceding year. The number of b nk books in use was 6,772,682, representing one depositor for every five and a half ■ persons in the eountry. Under the law | of 1896 the maximum deposit is now ; 1.600 francs, or $289.60, and the average | deposit less than S9B. In the number of depositors and in I the amount of savings France is, how | ever, in proportion to population, far j behind those states in this country in which the savings bank system is cs- I tahllshed. New York, with 1.806,880 ac j counts and $766,684,916 of deposits, and I Massachusetts, with 1.384.289 accounts 1 and $478,919,094 of deposits, lead the list, | but in all the New England States and in New Jersey, Maryland and Califor nia the per capita deposits are far be yond those of any country of Europe. Comparisons based on these figures, however, would be unfair, as the limit of the individual deposit is much high er in this country. In France the sav ings bank is strictly what the name implies—not a bank of deposit for cap ital, but a convenience for the accumu lation of petty savings too small to oe taken care of in any other way. Ac counts are opened for sums as small as one cent per month, and children's deposits are encouraged. Of the total depositors in 1897 the number of mi nors was 96,688 boys and 92,800 girls. It is the care of these savings and of those of the wage workers which is the special function of the French sav ings hank system. The system tends to form the habit of prudence and thrift ir the young—an excellent thing too much neglected In this land of the free and the happy-go-lucky.—N. Y. World. BOY'S HEROISM. Made Him Heir to a Fortune of One Million Dollars. Cornelius McCarthy, the proprietor of a little cigar store at Sixteenth and Jackson streets, Philadelphia, has fal len heir to a fortune estimated at no '•as than $1,000,000. His old friend, John McCarthy, with whom he passed many days as a boy, died a few days ago at his home in Ireland and left it to him. His benefactor had been Post master, Peace Commissioner and a man of much influence in the County of Cork. If he bore any relationship at all to Cornelius McCarthy it was very dis tant. But the old man had never mar ried and had no close kin. When he re turned to Ireland, after a rough but successful experience in the Australian gold fields, a warm attachment grew up between him and young Cornelius, then a post boy employed at the office of which the rich man had been plac ed at the head. One day the old man tried to ford the river Lee on horseback, and his horse floundered in the swift current and pitched his rider Into the .river, where he struck his head on a rock and was stunned. Cornelius, riding by his side, | jumped in and pulled him out. This act was never forgotten. When | the boy made a resolve to start out himself in search of fortune the old man placed £lO in his hand, and he has written the young man frequently ; since the latter came to Philadelphia. ! The newly made millionaire is about j 30 years old, and has a wife and little girl The letter which told of his good luck was from James Hickey, a lawyer j in Cork. ! McCarthy says he will continue to • live in Philadelphia.—Exchange. Russian Alcohol Monopoly. The monopoly of the sale of alcohol | in Russia, says the Chicago Tribune, I was applied January 1. 1896. in four eastern provinces; on July 1, 1896. to nine others in the south and southwest and in 1897 to all the empire. The fiscal result has been most satisfactory. The | receipts from taxes were 37,000,000 ru ! bles, while under the new system the | Government receives 56.000.000 ruble* Le Monde Economlque, in a discussion , of the monopoly, aasertH that from a ; hygienic point of view the monopoly has had good results. A better quality of spirits is sold, the number of dram shops has been reduced the sale of j liquor on credit has been suppressed, ; and increased deposits in the Govern ment Ravings banks show that a smal ler proportion of the earnings of the peasants is spent for liquor. Finally, there has been a noticeable diminution . in drunkenness and in those crimes and misdemeanors which are caused by ; intoxication. Schoolgirl's Good Fortune. Miss Hattie Smith, the eighteen-year old daughter of a retired farmer, Thomas Smith, has fallen heir to sl,- 000,000. Her granduncle, Richard W. Smith, of Glasgow, Scotland, has sign ed a contract to settle $1,000,000 on her when she arrives at the age of 21 in consideration of her going to Glasgow to live with him and brighten his last years. She will graduate from the local high school in June, and will go to Glasgow In August next. Her uncle is 92 years old.

For 10 years a huge wild animal has j made its home in the dense under* growth of the big hills 12 miles south of ■ this place. It has been seen many I times prowling around farm buildings at night, but always escaped. A few days ago James B.
