Lake Superior is s capricious monster, demanding skilled seaman • ship and the use of powerful and stanch boats, the majority of which are comparable with the vessels in our Atlantic costing trade. The lake is a veritable womb of storms.' They develop quickly there and even more speed- ily the water takes on a furious ' character. It is always fiuld, and the atmoaphore above and far „around it is kept cool all summer. I have been told, but cannot.. verify 'the statement, that temperature of the water in the open lake never rises above 46 ° Fahrenheit. As a rule, the men who sail upon it. cannot swim. The lake offers no inducement to learn the art, and, alas ! those who are experts wimniers could not keep alive for any groat , length of time in the icy water. • When I was making inquiries upon this point, I found, as' one almost always does, some who disputed what the majority,agreed upon. I' even found an old geutleman, a professional man of beyond seventy' years of age, who said that for several years he had visited the lake each sumrner•time, and that be had made it a practice to bathe in its waters nearly every day, It was chilly, he admitted, and he did not stay in very long. But many sailors, among them some ship and steamship captains, confirmed my belief that few Lake Superior sea- men have learned to ewim, and that the coldness of the water quickly numbs those who fall in. I asked one captain how long be supposed a man might battle for life, or cling to a spar in the lake. He answer, -very" e'sags'itflY "°i't"tfallititttlrffi8 dint some men could endure the cold longer than others, and that the more flesh and fat a man possessed, the longer he could keep alive. "But," he added, "the only roan I every saw fall overboard iveiit dt 3 t like a shot before we could get to him. I always supposed he took a cramp." The bodies of the drowned are said not to rise to the surface. They are refrigerated, and the decom- position which causes the ascent of human bodies in other waters does not take place. If one interesting contribution to my notes is true, and there be depths to whish fishes do 'not descend, it is possible that many • a hapless sailor -man and voyager lion as he died, a century back perhaps, and will ever thus remain, lifelike and natural,under the darkening veil of those emerald depths.—From "Brother to the Sea," by JULIAN RALPH, in Harper's .Magazine for April.

Kansas presents a • spectacle unique in history. There are d�s-. serted cities scattered over Eastern lands where largo populatioue once existed ;-hut such places fioor;ished for centuries before they 'felt into ruin. In Kansas there are cities and towus that never were populat- ed. Tho N. Y. Times says : "There aro 'twenty well built towns in Kansas without a Bingle in- habitant. Saratoga has a thirty thousand dollar opera house, a large brick hotel, a twenty thousand dollar school house, and a number of fine business houses, yet there is nobody even to claim a place to sleep. Her banks remain, bet they are silent. At Fargo a 1125,- 000 school house stands a monu- ment of the bond voting craze. - iMost f•t•hein- caro vtetYebif"etes moved or are torn town. Thn hotel keeps gloomy watch over the few reniaining houses, aided by the "bank." A herder and his family constitute the sole population of ? .;;r eb rise an incorporated city. South Hutchison is another example of a well built oity without a Nei pie. It would take more than $300,- 000 to duplicate the b'rildings there, and yet one can wander through the streets without finding man, wotnan or child." Yet this State was "boomed" in Canada as a rival to our Northwest. We should not be eurprised to learn that these desorted places are down in tie census for large populations.— Journal of Commerce. A. CANADIAN DYING IN A MICHIGAN POORHOUSE. Over twenty yeare ago Charles Fairfield had a thriving business in Toronto, Ontario. He was happily married and contented with bis lot until some mouths later, when he took a partner in business. The partner began paying attention to Mrs. Fairfield and after placing the business in jeopardy the two eloped. Disheartened, Fairfield sold his business, pocketed the funds, and started on a long eearob after his wife. For ten years he tramped the country over, keeping in constant communication with his friend at home. Then his letters suddenly ceased and nothing was hoard from him until a few days ago, when his friends learned that he was day in the Shiawassee Couuty poor -house, Michigan. They immediately came on there and found Fairfield at the point of death. He explains his long silence on the ground that he lost all his money, failed to find his recreant wife, and had become a physical and mental wreck, He will be taken home to die.

A new rector of the church had discharged the curate, named Waller, but, regard- less of his dismissal, the curate ap peered in the church as usual and began the service. The rector also proceeded to hold service, and the contending services roused the anger of the congregation. The police were called in to remove Waller, but he fought so desperately that ho had to be thrown to the floor before he would submit. During the struggle a number of women and children fainted. The curate was dragged to the vestry, from which he insisted upon walking to the police station in his full clerical garb, being followed by a howling mob. He was committed on the charge of brawling.
