Some idea of the gzeat demand
which exists for this luxury• in the
ITuited Statesulay be gathered from
the fact that the annual catch in the
United States is given as but little less
than 1,90109. with a gross value to
the "hanteis" of about 8.50,000, and to
the retailers a not less than 8150.000.
Indeed, tbe demand for fron the
United State.% where the consumption
is said to he ten times that of Franca
ba.a been so great that it is feared
their tuerestrieted hunting will result
in their practical extinetton, and ar-

Last week a meeting of passenger
agent of the railroads of the country
was held in Toronto to arrange rates
for the Pan-American Exposition. It
was the second meeting held for the
same purpose, and proved to be a
second. failure. The meeting broke up
in a hot controversy, nothing being
agreed upon. The bone of contention
is, that roads granted a differential in
other business want it in the Pan ex-
cursion rates, and th this the other
roads decidedly object. There seenas
to be no doubt that the result will be
a war of rates to Buffalo, and that it
will not cost visitors to the Pan very
naueb for railway fare. The first ex-
cursions will be run an May 20th and

Frog farming is attracting much at-
tention as an Industry in Ontario. It
is of economic importance in fifteen
States erne union. In one place in
Ontario it has assumed such import-
ance that it is referred to in the Man-
ual on Fish Culture, recently publish-
ed by the United States Fish Com-
mission at Washington(which devoted
• some eleven closely printed pages to
the subject of frogs and their artificial
cultivation) in three words: -"One of
the most successful frog farms is in
Ontario, in the Trent River basin. It
has been in operation about twenty
yearg, and annually yields a compara-
tively large product of frogs. During
• the year 1895 and 180 this farm yield-
ed 5.000 pounds of dressed frogs, legs
and 7,000 living frogs for scientific pur-
poses and for stockine other waters.'

There is a dangerous practice pre-
vailing in this city, of distributing
preinamenously upon the door steps of
houses, packages containing samples
of patent medicines, "cure-alls," etc.
.This practice has been :mowing dur-
ing the past few years to such an ex-
tent it has become a positive nuisance.
On Friday an example of the evil re-
sulting frauthis was furnished, and
while it did not result seriously, it was
• onlY by accident that the life of a
-gild Was saved. A mother had occa-
• sion to go out on the front porch of
her home and tbere discovered her 2 -
year -old child eating the contents of a
seven of pills intended to cure neuralgia
One pill was enough to put a ch;ld to
sleep, so the direction read, but the
little one had eaten three, and it was
only through the quick work of two
doctors that the child's life was saved.

fishway which Co]. Lays demanded is

among men, too, are becoming more
marked.
The Derbyshire Miners' Associa-
tion, representing 30,000 persons, on
Saturday unanimously passed a re-
solution against the export tax on
coal, but by it small majority decid-
ed not to stop work,
On the other hand, the Northum-
berland delegates, at a, meeting* at
Newcastle, unanimously decided to
support the strike.
The Durham ininers, at at. meeting,
agreed to abide by the decision of
the National Conference. •
The Lancashire and Cheshire min-
ers took up a, similar attitude. Those
of the Yorkshire voted against the
strike, the opinion being expressed
that if the mea agreed to a shut-
down of the pits,. the owners should
continue paying their wages.

Friction Between 1:cortirwestern Railway
• and Its Employes.
London, May 6.-T1te long -deferred,
'but inevitable struggle between the
railways of Englancl and the employ-
es' union threatens to bo precipitat-
ed by a dispute with the Northwest-
ern Railway, the greatest English
system.
The directors recently dismissed
eight men, and transferred others
who were concerned in a, libel ease,
brought by a 'district superintendent
against a newspaper of the union.
The paper alleged that the superin-
tendent was a drunkard, but did not
produce any evidence to support the
charge, and the jury gave a verdict
for the plaintiff. 'The company then,
as a result of an investigation, dis-
ciplined the men on the ground that
they were engaged in an alleged con-
spiracy. The company's case thus
far is week, so far as the publie is
concerned, because while announcing
the reasons for the action, it does
not give the facts, and the men deny
the charge that the union xactde this
a. test case.
The crisis will probably be reached
this week, when the directors will
give a final ,decisien, from which the
chairman announces in yesterday's
papers there will be no change.
