PULSE OF THE PRESS.
Bystander (Goldwile Smith) in the
Weekly Sun; -It ie surely time that the
serious atteution of Government and
municipalities should be turned to the
subject, of immigration. The Salvation
Army is pouring irowiirallts upon us by
thousands. It has twenty-five hundred
more coming. Pablio charity is already
feeling the strain. The purpose for
which the Salvation Army is organized,
and which It has shown itself marvel'-
curly fitted to fnllftlli is not immigra-
tion, but conversion. We do the Army
no wrong in seeking fo he assured that
it is perfeotly fitted fbr the assumption
of this new and veryrmomentous sphere
of action. How are the immigrants situ-
ated? To what olas! do they belong?
What means are taken to ssscertain their
aptitude and their paospeot of employ-
ment? Do many of`'them bring lama
Lies? Under what oluditions (financial
or of other kinds) ore they enlisted?
What money do they bring with them?
The public, upon whose charity exces-
sive immigration will be a burden, and
in certain events, each as a bad harvest
in the Northwest, may become a heavy
burden, would seem to be entitled to in-
formation on these points, and may call
for it without any disparagement of the
work of the Army in its regular and
familiar sphere.
From the tone of the censures one
would thiuk that it was the duty of the
Prime Minister and the Minister of
Pabile Works to break up a meeting
of the Cameral now and then with the
apology: "Excuse us, gentlemen, but
we really mast go and see that the con-
tractor is putting enough mucilage ii.

In former years the immigrants were
among the more adventurous and am-
bitious of the people of the old land.
Now, however, when it is a simpler
matter to come to Canada and when this
country's praises are being sung far mud
wide in the British Isles, we are getting

Catastrophes are Soon Forgotten

Indifference is ane of the most strik-

People as rule worry mostly over "the
petty round or irritating concerns and

to great possible calamities. A day or

just devastated San Francisco, ono of the
newspapers of that city contained the
following editorial:

of the advanced diner. "Lord Charles
Beresford," says Vanity Fair, "has fort
sodic time been a vegetarian, and nowt
Lady Charles Beresford has adopted
the same form of diet and lives prIill
cipally on nuts. The Earl of Buchan
and Mr. Neville Lytton are also among
the recent recruits."
The nuts are served hot or Cold and
constitute the principal course at inazijf
a lordly mansion nowadays. "If the unr
employed only knew," said a nutty con-
vert to an Express reporter, "they
could live luxuriously on two or three
pence a day on the finest food in the
world, and it could be varied so much
that there would be no monotony of
dishes."
A booklet by Sir W. B. Cooper 'en-
titled "Errors in Eating" gives some
curious figures, purporting to show the
difference in the nutriment contained
in nuts as compared with flesh food
Here are some nuts; Total nutrimenj
On chestnuts, 89.3 per cent; walnut ,

A Decaying Cathedral.
The pinnacles and cornices on the -
west front of Winchester Cathedral arr,
in so dangerous a state, owing to de»
cay, that the Dean and Chapter tial%
decided to close the three western
doors, leaving only the south door as ft
means of public entrance to the cathe+
dt.
Arafew days ago large fragments o
stone fell to the pavement fust in fro
of the northwest door, and the pre _
lent frosts threaten seriously to
crease the danger of pinnacles and eor'
nices failing away.
It was only a month ago that Dr.
Furneaux, the Dean of Winchester, 15t
sued an urgent appeal for £ 20,000 Irl
order that the serious defects which
had been discovered in the cathedral
might be repaired.
Cracks a foot wide had been discOv-.
ered in the foundations of the build -
Ing, caused by the subsidence of 'tb e
east end, -while a progressive subside
ence had also been going on in other
portions of the fabric. •
In that appeal the dean referred to
the dilapidated condition of the splr'ej;
and pinnacles of the west front, and it
was intended that these should be cov-
ered in the general scheme of repair,
but it was not expected that the danger
in this part of the building would so
soon become acute.
Named It at Once.
Some of Darwin's boy friends once
plotted a surprise for the naturalist.
They slew a centipede, glued on it a
beetle's head, and also added to its
body the wings of a butterfly and the
long legs of a grasshopper. Then they,
put the new insect in a box and knock"
ed at the great man's door. "We fouled
this in the fields," they cried, 'with ea-
ger voices. "Do tell us what it cats
be," Darwin looked at the strange{
compound and then at the boys' intro'
cent faces. "Did it hum when you
caught it? $e asked. "Oh yes, sir,"
they answered, quickly, nudging one
another, "It hummed like anything,"
"Then," said the philosopher, "it's a.
hum -bug." -London Taller.
Rat Hunts In Favor In England.

land is fast bounding into popularity
says The London Express. It is elaileter
'ed by the many fresh devotees of title
peculiar hobby that it provides excites;
trent and sport, while, as its aim is tett►
extinction of vermin, its usefutndss
beyond question. Ii. Ir. Wllloughi'i ,
Greenhill, a stock broker, and a par er
of friends, with the asslstanee of Mt
dogs, bagged ninety-two rats in ofb
day recently and nearly as many dates
ing the preceding week. The sport is
general all over the County of Sarre t.
and the. services of those Who folio*
