A party of Canadian. Pacific eurveyors,
engaged in selecting the land grant of their
railway in the Souris district, recently
came upon it grim memorial of the old days
of rapine and bloodshed, when every hunter
on the plains carried his life in hie hand.
In a little valley running into the eastern
pert of the elevation known as Wood
Mountain they found relics of it savage
fight. Several old-fashioned Red River
carts, beaten by rains for many yeare until
they were almost falling to plume, were
etanding on an open bit of prairie. They
had been splintered and torn by countless
bullets. ' A small pool near at hand con -
Mined -several skeletons, while on a bluff
fifty or 'sixty yards away were found it pile
of empty cartridge shells. These mute
surroundings told the story graphically. A
band of hunters resting in the quiet of the
coulee had been surprised by a party of
warlike Indians and slaughtered. As the
place where the discovery was made is not
far from the American boundary, it is
probable that the participants in the trite
gedy came from the tiouth side of the line.

A HAPPY LIM
The Czar in Constant Terror of Plots
:against His Person.
A Berlin cable Bays: Official telegrams
say the Czar will start for Berlin next
Thursday. Mr. Sohirinkine, Chief of the
Czar's secret police, passed through Berlin
to -day on his way to Kiel. He is accom-
panied by the inspector of Imperial trains.
The Czar's speoial train, once owned by
the Empress Eugenie, lies at the atetion
here, having come from Wirballen. There
are swarms of Russian police here, at
Kiel, and at the stations along the pro-
posed route. Bastian troope. line the rails
from Wirballen to Moecow. The precau-
tions taken far excel those on the occasion
of the former visit of the Cza,r, and are doe
to his intense fears of an attempt upon
his life. The Czarina leaves Copenhagen
October 12th for Konigsberg, rejoining the
Czar at some point on the bordOward
journey. Only Court Minister Worontzow
Daschoff, and Aides -de -Camp Genie Tehe-
reine and Richter will acco.npany the
Czar. The Czar will accord Prince lais-
marok an interview. The Czar will pass
48 hours between Potsdam and Beene.
Nothing is expected to result from his
meeting with 13ismarok. The MOSCOW
newspapers ridicule the idea that the Czar
will accept any conciliatory overtures,
unless they are well backed by solid con -
outdone.

"Why are not the good things all as
lovely as the bad things ?" a child once
asked me. They are—far more so. Inner.
antis is bidden Knowledge is lovely. But
we are jest beginning to proceed on this
line in schooling. Ah, that old red school -
bones at the cross-roads, where many of us
begun! Contrast its hard bench, its small
windowe, its box.stove, rosy hot on one sidee
aod emitting smoke through a crack on the
other—contrast it with the new elegance of
the modern Kindergarten. Think of the
mean books, the Twinning by rote without a
partiole of understanding—the commingling
of big boys and, little, girls and boys
indeed; the culture of rudeness by strength
toward weakness; and I remember that
even the pretty farmers' girls took on
bearish manners in the struggle of the
promiscuous play -ground. The world
moves. No one thing in this great century
deeervee more notice than the emanoipteion
of the sohool child from many of its woes
which we fathers remember.
Yet the forcing process remains. Too
young, they are sent to school. Hear me,
all ye arabitious parents! I plead for it
little more time to expand the chest, to
stretch the limbo, to preserve and
strengthen .he young. eyes, to attune the
Young spirit'Witla it sure belief that thEite is
such a thing as having it good jolly time in
thio toilsome world.
By every sigh that, escapee it weary man's
lips, "1 wish I were a child again" By
every golden sky that glows on woman's
vision as she takes the backward look. By
the memory of sleep that came AS soon as
we touched the pillow, and a waking as
fresh as it new birth. By the echo of joy
that comes even now as you bear far oif
the ory. " Hi Spy I" and the shout of the
viotor m the happy games of the past that
will never come to you again. By the
hope of Saturday, and no aohool," which
thrilled you onoe as no hope of fortune
ever ala in later, sterner years. By sweet
little friendship, fit for the gods—alas, how
many are broken never to be restored By
all that childhood even was to the most
favored reader of these lines, I pray you
Etee that your child has a happy ohildhood.
And since school is necessary, see to it that
the school conforms to this purpose of
yours. Let not the teacher be a bandit to
rob your child, nor the room a prison. In
no one way can you do more to these

Hourekeeping of the Future.
In cities and villages the kitchen and

banished from the home. Clotho inaking,

coffee browning, yew making, butter mak.

rather say that organized industry IS
already taking along with these—the
remaining work of cooking and Meaning.
This state of things Is coming as Buries
fate; and when it cornea the deliverance
will be so wet that generations yet un-
born shall rise up to bless tbe workings
of the beneficent law. The city of
the future will not build houses
in squares, giving to every berm an indi-
vidual kitchen and prison -like baok yard.
It will rather build them all around an
open square, and the paet now disfigured
with the kitchen will be given over for a
'household sitting -room or nursery, opening
into a great, green space, where children
shall play in safety, and through whichthe
free air of heaven shall blow into the houses
surrounding it. In every square will be
found a soientifically-constructed building
containing a laundry and great kitchen(
supplied with every modern appliance for
skilled and scientific cookery, and also for
sending into every dining -room any desired
quantity or variety of food. The indi-
viduality of -the home and the home table
will be preserved, and the kitchen smells
and waste and "hired girl" will all baleen-
