A GREAT INVENTION.
And it Would be Invaaluable if Used in
Brooklyn.
A wild-eyed man entered the office of
The Morning Advertiser and asked
for the department devoted to electri-
cal science. • He was turned over to the
editor in charge of invention and me-
chanical progress.
"I have here," said the wild-eyed
man as ho carefully deposited a curious
model on the floor ; "I have here, Mr,
Editor, a device for saving human lite
from the devastating and:deadly trolley
car."
'A fender for picking up the person
knocked down ? ' suggested the edi-
tor.
"Tho same."
"Well, the market is already over-
stocked. Every car in Brooklyn is stock-
ed with one."
"Ab, but not with my device. Mine
goes further. It not only picks up the
person knocked down, but dusts his
clothes, blacks his boots, gives him a
shave and a hair cut, and sets- him
down sate and sound at the next cross-
ing, and not a cent to pay."
"That seems cheap enough."
"It is," said the inventor, "and if I
can get a line in you} "newspaper re-
commending my device to the attention
ti "Bi'ooklyn frty..Iortune is made."
"Why Brooklyn ?"
"Because I have lived in that town,
and I know something of how much
they expect for their money. No mere
device to save life can be floated in
Brooklyn unless it carries with it at
least a shave and a hair cut, and if they
insist upon it I am prepared to perfect
my machine so that it will give them a
shampoo. It's a good thing. Push it
along," and the wild-eyed man replaced
his valuable model in a bag and quietly
withdrew.

ROMANCE OF THE SEA,
GAMBLiNQ ORIENTALS.
RELICS OF A LOST TRIBE OF INDIANS.
WERE FOUND.
These Were on Ban Nicholas Island. 1140
Most Suuthwesterir of the Little Group
of Santa Berbera, to the Pacific Ocean
—hundreds of !Skeletons.
The schooner Alexander, Capt. Scott,
has lately returned to San Francisco
from an otter -hunting trip along the
southern coast. The last point at which
Capt. Scott touched was San Nicholas
Island, and he brought from there many
curious r i
relics ofan
ancient race0 t Iu-
dians.
San Nicholas Island is the most south-
westerly of the little group off Santa
Barbara, and it is many years since Os -
eels have touched there. Capt. Scott
describes e the place as one of the most
barren spots on the earth, and yet up
to half a century ago It was covered
with vegetation and contained soil so
rich that the rarest exotics flourished
there. Now it is a sandy waste, the
sign of habitation being a flimsy -look-
ing lout of rough boards. Twenty or 30
sheep in a halt -starved condition were
the only signs of life visible, and on the
hilltops bleaching in the sun were found
the bones of hundreds of the ancient
rulers of the islands.
"We put in under the lee of the
island,' said Capt. Scott to a reporter,
"to get a safe harbor until the weather
was propitious for otter -hunting. While
there I determined to go ashore and see
what kind of a place it was. We landed
on the beach and the aspect was dreary
enough. As far as the eye could reach
over hill and lowland there was nothing
to be seen but sand and rocks, and a
little way off there were 20 or 30 sheep.
They looked more like wool -covered
skeletons than anything else. One of
the men ran after some of the animals,
and the latter hobbled about 50 yards
and then dropped dead.
"The island is about 10 miles long and
five miles wide, and not a bit of soil is
to be seen. There had been soil there
once, but the sheep had dug up the
grass by the roots and the wind blew
the sand up all over the island. We
went to tho top of a little hill and there
saw a most curious sight. Evidently
• this had been the graveyard of the
former inhabitants, but no cross or
monument marked the spot of burial.
"The wind had swept up the sand and
left bare the bones of the dead. All
around us were grinning skulls and
whitened skeletons and the whistling
wind, as it soughed through the little
hills and valleys, lent a weird aspect to
the scene. We gazed on the remains of
what had been mighty specimens of
manhood, for the size of the bones
showed that the proportions of the dead
men must have been immense. I am
over six feet in height, and a number
of thigh bones I measured extended far
below the knee,
"I picked up this club," said the cap-
tain, exhibiting a heavy bar , of sand-
stone. ,It is evidently a war club,
which was used hundreds of years ago,
and you can tell by its heft that it re-
quired a pretty strong man to wield it.
Here is a 'mortar and pestle which I
also picked up. There were a number
of them scattered about the island.
They were probably the property of the
medicine men of the tribe.
"I have heard that the name of the
tribe never could be learned and that
but little is known about the Indians.
The people living in and about Santa
Barbara in years gone by could
not understand their language, and
so never were, able to find out
much about them. Thirty years
ago Capt. Nidever went oft to San
Nicholas in a schooner and took off
what was left of the tribe. There were
only 15 there one of the number being
a woman. If the men had been war-
riors in times gong by, their martial
spirit was then diminished, for they
offered no resistance, When ail hands
were aboard and the anchor was abont
to be weighed the woman signified that
she wanted• to go ashore, and made the
captain understand that her papoose
had been left behind. She was rowed
ashore, and as soon as her feet touched
the beach she sped away like a deer.
She was a woman fully six feet in
height, comely and well formed, and
built in proportion. After an unavail-
ing search for several hours the men
returned to the vessel.
"The woman remained on the island
for 10 years after that, although seve-
ral hunting parties went after her at
different times from Santa Barbara.
She lived in a cave, subsisting on the
mussels and abalones which she gather-
ed from the rocks. Finally she was
caught, her pursuers having got on her
trail and followed her to her cavern
home. She was taken to Santa Bar-
bara, but civilization was too much for
her and she died in a few months. She
refused to sleep in a led, preferring the
floor, and she used to play about the
place like a child."
The war club .which Capt. Scott
brought up with him is 24 inches in
length, nine inches in diameter at one
end arid five inches at the handle. The
mortar is 13 inches in diameter, and the
pestle is about half the size of the club.
The mortar has the appearance of hav•
ing been hollowed out by the continual
pounding of the pestle. Among the
other relics of the tribe, Scott has a
flint arrow -head about two inches in
length and sharp as a needle at the
rant. He also has two flint balls with
oles through them. He thinks that
they are part of a three -ball catchall
similar to that used by the Patagonians.
The instrument of the latter consists of
three balls to which are attached
strings. The latter meet and are fast-
ened to a long leash or rope, and when
thrown at a horse, a bird or a man, if
they strike the object, the strings wind
around and around, holding the victim
as tightly as a fish in the meshes of a
net.
One Thing Lucking.
The mammoth department stores sup-
ply all wants. Not long ago a customer
in one of these all-round stores pur-
chased a complete house -furnishing sup-
ply, including a dog, a parrot and a
monkey. He bought himself a suit, and
having an ugly tooth, he had it eased
up without gontg out of his way. Going
up another flight, he sat for his photo-
graph, passed into a physician's office
on the same floor, was taken seriously
ill on the floor above, died there, was
placed in a coffin out of stock near by
on the same floor, and sent home. The
manager of the house added in a busi-
ness -like way : "We would have fur-
nished it coroner and jury if the friends
of the deceased hadn t been in such a
hurry. "—Chicago Tribuner
Games of Chance Are es the wrath et
Life to Them,,
There appear to. bo three races of
mets—the'Uhitlese, the Malays and the
natives of Manilla, to whom in every
grade and under all conditions of life
gambling in some form or another is as
the breath of their nostrils. The love
Wit Is inborn.. They seem unable to
live contented lives without theleasur-
able excitement, that is to be found in
games of mingled chance and skill, but
among Chinamen generally, and cer-
tainly among Chinamen abroad. `the
gambling g is of a very mild typo indeed.
In most cities where there is a consider-
able alien Chinese population to be
dealt with the necessity for licenslhg
and regulating or at least winking at
the existence of their gambling houses
is recognized. It is the one pastime in
a life of continuous toil the denial eni:
a! oY
which would be intolerable and practi-
cally impossible.
But the evil never assumes propor-
tions of any more seriousness than our
own domestic hand of "Napoleon" or
the club rubber of whist or nominal
points so long as the authorities confine
the games strictly to the Chinamen
themselves, a course followed in such
cities as Calcutta and Syduey. It is only
when the riffraff of other races are al-
lowed to "take a hand" and to utilize
the Chinese games,tables and banks for
the gratification of their own gambling
propensities that anything like wide-
spread mischief is wrought, A China-
man! in rare instances, lose his all when
gaming among his own countryiuen,but
it this result does happen he goes next
day contentedly back to work and is not
like most ruined gamblers of European
stock, permanently incapacitated for
honest toil.
If white men lose money in a Chinese
gambling house they are at once illoa•i-
eal, dishonest and contemptible in de-
nouncing the Chinese as the cause of
their misfortune. The bush workers
inveigh against their Chinese competi-
tors for their habit of gambling, yet it
is notorious that the shearers and the
roustabouts' huts on the sheep stations
are frequently scenes where men aro,
in colonial phraseology, "lambed down"
and fleeced of all their season's earnings
by quasiprofessional gamblers, who
find the evening game at cards far
more profitable and to their taste than
the day's work on or around the shear-
ing board. Similarly in the cities the
poor Chinaman is denounced for his
fondness for fantail or parapu, played
for coppers, while the very men who
throw the stone openly frequent race
courses and card clubs.—Nineteenth
Century.
"They Will Itun After Ilse Alen,"
"Women cannot leave men alone,"
says a writer in All the Year Around.
"'that warcry of theirs,•whatever a man
can do a woman can', is pregnant with
meaning of which they themselves ap-
pear to be unconscious. Whatever a
man does they do—chiefly because a
man is doing it, If a man did not do it
they would not do it either. They crowd
the risky entertainments because the
men are there. They read and write the
suggestive books because their first and
foremost theme is invariably the rela-
tions of the sexes. They play masculine
games. 1 would venture on something
of the nature of a prophetic utterance. It
is this. If every than were to leave off
playing golf to -morrow, there would not
be a female golf player left in England
in a month. Heaven knows that there
are a good manv of thein just now!
Where the men load the women follow.
The 'dear creatures,' as the old-time
'bucks' used to have it, always did run
after the men; it seems that just now
they are running after them a little
harder than ever they did. That, from
the social point of view, is the Alpha.
and Omega of the cry of the 'indepen-
dent' women ; that is not seldom the
meaning of 'women's rights.' It is the
right of a woman not to be far away
from a roan."
Whet a Brahman Thinks.
We want English free schools where
no money is charged, and where stu-
dents are encouraged by scholarships.
Americans can have no idea how poor
the people of India are. They live in
small huts and have no cot or bedding.
Some of the lower classes cannot get a
second meal a day, the first meal being
a piece of bread or a little boiled rice.
Now. if every dollar that the kind-
hearted Americans spend on the mis•
sionaries were used in bringfng up these
lower classes by educating them, it
would be the greatest charity in the
world. Building more railroads, teach•
ing mechanics, electricity and all kinds
of manufactures ; making sanitary im-
provements itt the villages and towns to
prevent thousands of people from being
swept away annually by cholera and
other diseases which have made India
their home—for these the people of In-
dia would bless the Americans. In
every poor man's house the praise of
your nation would be sung,and the name
"America" would be dear to them, and
they would bless you from their hearts.
If your object is truly to improve the
condition of India's poor, then instead of
teaching them religion, send teachers
and open schools; give them education
and lot them select any reiigion they
like.
But it is a sheer waste of money to
spend it on the missionaries. It does
not help the people. On the contrary, it
only strengthens their own religous faith
and creates international prejudice.
The people bitterly complain against
them for their interference, not only in
religion, but in politics, too. What bene-
fit is it to Indus or America if a few
pariahs are Christianized at an enor-
mous cost? I again affirm that it is a
waste of money. Send your missionaries
to those who have no religion—for in-
stance, in the interior of Africa and the
South Sea Islands, and to the cities of
the United States.—Purushotam Rao

Increase A. Lapham.
The father of the weather bureau
service was Increase A. Lapham, a
modest and retired but ripe scholar.
who lived in Milwaukee. He was the
first to note by telegraph the progress of
the wind currents and storms and to
predict their appearance in specified
neighborhoods. On the strength of a
weather dispatch from Omaha, in 1869
or thereabouts, he announced the first
storm on Lake Michigan that ever was
heralded 12 hours in advance of its ar-
rival. The first work of the weather
bureau was - under his charge in Chi-
cago. It was on the small beginnings
of Dr. Lapham that the entire system of
the signal service was based. f)r. Lap -
ham died in 1876.—New York Ledger.

Courtship nod Marriage.
Marriage has been truly compared to
the unmasking hour of a masquerade
ball.. .'My market's made" is the usual
decision and consequently both allow the
masks to slip from their laces and dis-
cover that they courted a myth and
married a reality. The wife frets over
"hard work," if in bumble life ; wor-
ries over servants and the demands of
society, inn more affluent circumstances.
The husband finds his jolly companions
at the club far more agreeable than the
wife ho married (not the sweet little
creature that was courted by the model
young• than), and tints the chasm of in-
difr•rence is widening between them
daily, and lionte has no charm for either
unwilling captive. Let each remember
that courtship is only a mask at best,
and by striving to penetrate its disgnise
bo bettered prepared to meet the rela-
tions which must be brought to light
when the masks are finally reproved,
and after it is too late to retrace their
steps. Have no secrets from each other
with which to weigh down your after
life. Be frank and honest, tell each
other of the faults whil:h will be reveal-
ed in time anyway and strive to over-
come them by each tsrlsting the other.
Should these faults break the engage-
ment it is tar better so than let them
break the heart after marriage.—Phiia-

501110 Reverses „f Fortune.
A Yorkshire vicar in London last
month paid his 'bus fare to one who
only ten years ago was the squire of an
East Biding village, The last time they
had met the squire sat in the square
pew of his village church, the walls of
which held many tablets to the memory
of his ancestors. He, their descendant,
through mortgages and reduced rents,
had to gain his daily bread by hailing
foot passengers and inviting them to
ride to the "Angel." Many examples of
the vicissitudes of Yorkshire families
might be given. Thus the ladies of a
family who were in a position frequent-
ly to entertain the Duke of Clarence so
recently as when he was quartered at
York have been applicants for situa-
tions as governesses. A roan who was
the titular owner of most of the land in
another village called on the church-
wardens (who were his nominal ten-
ants( and asked if they could give hdm
an order ' for stoves for warming the
church, as he was making his living by
selling them. Another gentleman in
position, moving in the society of noble-
men, tnav now be seen in the uniform
of a porter at a station in his native
county. Bravely have these people faced
their positions, and instead of doing
that which as century back would have
been considered the only thing possible,
viz., sponging on their relatives, they
have nobly resolved to do their best in
reduced circumstances.—The Yorkshire
(Eng.) News.
Irian Auetiou, Ravenna.
It was on the day of the fish auction
that I first went there. In the tiny port
by the pier—for Ravenna has now no
harbor—they were making an incredi-
ble din over the emptyings of the nets—
pretty, mottled, metallic fish and slimy
octopuses and sepias and flounders Look-
ing like pieces of sea inud. The fishing
boats, mostly from the Venetian lagoon,
were moored along the pier, wide '? ow-
ed things, with eyes in the prow like
the ships of Ulysses, and bigger craft,
with little castles and weather vanes
and saints' images and pennons on the
masts like the galleys of St. Ursula as
painted by Carpoccio, but all with the
splendid orange sail, patched with suns,
lions and colored stripes of the northern
Adriatic.
The fishermen from C ogia, their
heads covered with the big
cf the fifteenth century, were yelling at
the fishmongers from town, and all
round lounged artillerymen in their
white undress and yellow straps, who
are encamped for ptactice on the sands
and whose carts and guns we had met
rattling along the sandy road through
the marsh.—Vernon Lee, in Macmil-
lan's Magazine.

guard, but the learned judge bad not

added, "into the box and do your duty!"
The man quailed and obeyed in some
confusion at the failure of has ruse.—

In view of the complete revolution
of teachers and teacher's -_salaries,
the question arises, or should arise,
In every mind, where and how will
it end, and what will be its effect
on Canada in the future? Statistics
show that the average schools taught
a few years ago, by teachers of experi-
ence and ability, who commanded
salaries ranging from $400 to $500, are
to -day being kept by boys and girls at
salaries from $100 tip to $300. Experi-
ence, a great teacher in every calling,
should surely be it teacher of teachers.
But do our children get the benefit of
this experience, No. As it stands at
present, a would-be teacher, is driven
from the profession (1') by the pangs of
hunger. We will not question their
ability to teach, but will set it down at
their own estimate of it, as shown by
the salaries they accept.
I do not disparage youth, but admire
it. It is it titue_for deyeloptnent, phy-
sical, mental and moral, preparatory
to life -work, and should not he stunted
by the grave and eternal responsibility
of the destiny of a half -hundred im-
mortals.
Parents of Ontario ! would you em-
ploy it man, who had not served his
apprenticeship, to build the tounda-
taou fpr a superstructure just because
he offered his services for one-half the
just wage of a skilled mechanic? Pre-
stnning that you would: Note the re-
sults. Artisans quit the trade in dis-
gust, Ability and skill not required,
everybody who fancies the work be-
come builders. Mortar nut tempered,
joints not broken, work rotten, slowly
'but certainly roust topple'and collapse.
Mark the ruin of a prosperous country
with buildings in this condition. Do
you prize stone and wood more highly
than your children ? Is not the foun-
dation of the child -mind and its in-
tellectual development all important
to your offspring and the future of
our beloved country? 1s education a
commodity of trade, that should fluctu-
ate with the price of wheat? Should a
de r'essiiin in commercial circles in-
volve a cort'espouding degradation in
intelligence and culture? Do you,
when you are taken ill, send hastily
for a quack because you find it takes
extra effort to pay for a trustworthy
and experienced physician ? When
you buy a yard of calico do you invari-
ably take the cheapest on the market,
without regard to texture ? -In the end
is shoddy cheaper than broadcloth ?
You say by using such figures of
speech 1 • rim lowering the dignity of
the profession of teaching. No idiom
of the English language is capable of
even imitating, the degradation it has
suffered by the unscrupulous and under
kidding actions of a thoughtless class
of petty pedagogues. Schools are now
openly put up at public auction (to the
honor of many school boards they do
not tolerate such humility). Yet in
many instances this is actual fact. .
Ratepayers, you are robbing your
children and posterit y of privileges
which you and I as children enjoyed.
Teachers in those days made teaching
their life work. 'Fire theories of
phonies, induction, deduction, mind
training, discipline, &c., can be sys-
tematized only, after years, very many
years, of experience in dealing with chil-
dren, Are you a better randier, or a
shrewder merchant than you were 10
years ago? It so, why? Count out
even 10 leachers of 10 years standing
and mark well the area covered to find
such number.
You are to blame for this state of
affairs. Much of the boasted progress
in herr educational system is not ad-
vancement, because much of it is based
on this questionable foundation.
Our modern methods do materially
facilat.e the teacher's work. Are they
doing so to -day in every case ? Will
your sons and daughters look hack 20
or 30 years from now and bless your
memory for your action ? If so, all is
well.

a good, comfortable school -room and
convenient appparatus. This is com-
mendable. W111 you admit that the
teacher is the most important item in
the equipment of a school ? Will you
grant that a teacher must possess
enemy and aprbition? How ifiitleh of
the tomer can you expect for $250 a
year ; as to the latter I make free to
state that he or she has none. A per-
son, who will expend several years and
$400 or $500 in qualifying for work, and
then engage to work for less than att.
unskilled laborer has no ambition. Is
this a proper example to set,
daily before your children? Oh!
you say the laborer works over
300 days per annum, while the
teacher works only 220 days. I
take exception to the latter statement.
Every faithful and conscientious teach-
er. in Ontario must spend at least the
equivalent to 300 teaching days each
year in the performance of his or her
duty. Educationists, I beg of you, to
hear witness to this assertion.
Finally, are you satisfied to let your
children imbibe, from your fiscal ac-
tions the idea that you esteem more
highly the accomplishments of your
farm hand or city laborers than you
do those of the teacher, trainer, educa-
tor of their minds and hearts

In my next article I purpose asking
a few questions of and stating a few
facts to 1h • Cheapists in this now al-
most ignoble calling. Yours sincerely,
PARENT.
