A Fine Institution. -
The new St. Vincent's hospital, dedi
cated the 14th of July, 1895, has been
justly called, by admirers,' "The Pride
of Portland." Whilst it is one of the
handsomest buildings of the city, it is,
what is far more important, the first,
best, -modern, up-to-date, hospital of
the Pacific Coast.
Situated on the side of Portland'
hills at a height oi 220 feet above the
base of city grades, it not only is beyond
the malarial atmosphere, but, as all
visitors will acknowledge, affords the
most superb panorama that can be seen
in picturesque Oregon.
The bnildinz, easily accessible by two
lines of city cars, is an immense brick
structure on a foundation of stone, 260
feet in length and six stories high
and bo constructed that, not the outside
walls alone, but every third partition
dividing rooms in the house, extends in
one solid mass from foundation to roof.
so making it a perfect "Gibralter."
To add to security in case ot fire,
large iron doors separate the balls into
compartments, and from basement to
roof, on the rear of the building, extend
massive fire escapes. The six corridors
are twelve feet wide and terminate on
each end of the building in balconies.
A large(7x!0) electric elevator is oper
ated in the central section of building.
and so designed to comfortably carry
patients from one floor to another with'
out removing them from their cots
Add to this a perfect system of attach
ments electric bells, and speaking
tubes and rapid transit and commuui
cation in the house is perfect.
The visiting staff of the house is com
posed of the most eminent surgeons and
physicians of the West, namely : Doc
tors H. E. Jones, W. Jones, K. A. J,
Mackenzie, J. F. Bell, A. C. Smith, E
F. Tucker, J. F. Dickson, (ear, eye, nose
and throat specialist), W. H. Boyd, D,

Can thorn, O. S. Biswanger, A. W,
Moore, B. L. Gillespie, E. Linden, and
J. C. Perry, (17. S. Marine hospital sur
geon). The resident house surgeons are
Drs. A. W. Trimble, G. Burdorf, and L.
Marks. All surgeons and physicians are
welcome to bring patients to the house,
and every attention is guaranteed.
The charges for the ward is $7, and for
private rooms, $14 per week and up
wards.
Finally, last but not least, patients
are cared for by Sisters, many of whom
have had from fifteen to twenty years
experience in hospitals, and who have
worked by the Bide of the most eminent
physicians and surgeons.

OCR BANKING SYSTEM.
A Canadian Statesman Say It I
Re-
sponsible for the Hard Timet.
Montreal, Feb. 15. Hon. C. C. Colby,
ex-Canadian cabinet minister, who has
returned from an extensive trip through
the United States, says that the defec
tivenesa of the United States national
bank system is responsible for so much
of the depression that has been notice'
able of late. The system does not meet
present requirements, the banks being
precluded from giving the necessary ac
commodations to move crops, etc., hence
the many failures that have been ex
ploited. The silver question was an out'
come of the lack of banking facilities
adequate to the needs of the country.
He says he has information that Pres
ident-elect McKinlev has given carte
blanche to a Chicago banker to prepare
a scheme, which, if acceptable, will be
worked out by the secretay of the tress
ury and submitted to congress. He be
lieves the Canadian system of banks
with large capital and branches in diff
erent centers of the country and power
to issue currency guarnteed by the gov
ernment, will, to a certain extent, be
fallowed.

ranTT "PRIVATE DALZELL'S PLAINT.
Bli Teachings If Persisted In, Would
Lead to War.
Private Dalzell in a recent article in
the Washington Post writes a long . tale
of woe. ' He tells of our 2,000,000. en
forced idlers, our 1,000,000 tramps, the
overcrowding ot our penal institutions,
the increase of landlords and tenants,
the hopeless increase of debt, and a long
list of other lamentations. Concluding,
he says: .
"Civilization, as Napoleon said of ar
mies, travels on its stomach, and it ia
very hungry now, for the most part.
Where can it be filled? Hence all the
unrest, all the wild war talk and dis
cussion of silver and gold and tariff by
people. who have neither silver nor gold
nor anything to. pay customs. Relief
Bhajj not
come in that way. It never
did at this stage of society. It will
come in the old way, in war, and not
otherwise either insurrectionary, which
God forbid, or foreign which heaven
hasten if it shall quiet this people and
give them rest, if only the honored rest
patriots gain fighting for humanity."
Replying directly to the sentences
quoted, Mr. Sovereign goes on to say ,
that what the tn.ople of the United
States need is an agitation at home that
will force them to a test against thei
own social and economic disorders; but
that it should come through insurrec
tion, with all its revolving horrors, is
proposition repnlsive to all the higbe
impulses of humanity.
Continuing he says': "Insurrections
like great conflagrations, start with
spark, and are quenched only with
deluge. One reason in favor of insur
rection to idle, starving and debt bur
dened people is more potent in exciting
war than a thousand reasons against in
surrection are in preserving peace. For
that reason Dalzell at this time is
dangerons writer."
Mr. Sovereign then devotes consider
able space to a historv of two secret
revolutionary orders known as the Iron
Brotherhood and the Industrial Army
now being formed, and for fear. Dalzell
may not know what these societies are
doing, he quotes several sentences from
the prelude of a secret societies, viz,
"Comrades, there comes a time in the
affairs of men and nations when despera
tioa compels the human mind to pause
and bring to its aid that element of
reason bo long discarded. We have
reached such a crisis in the destinies of
this American republic. One hundred
years of national existence has demon
strated that the political fabric of our
government contains within its warp
the elements of its own destruction
with the fact that the ballot has proven
a most lamentable failure as a safeguard
of free institutions. In the closing of
the nineteenth century we see a class
despotism establishing itself upen the
ruins of the republic; an oligarchy is
now in power and already the hideous
phantom of imperialism overshadows
us, as embodied in the autocratic claims
of the federal court and the acts of nn
bridled military despotism characteristic
of the federal government of today.
"What is to be done? We have ap
pealed in vain to the ballot. Every
trial of strength in the political arena
has resulted in victory for the unscrupu'
Ions money power.
History proves that you cannot be
freed through the ballot."
Continuing, Mr. Sovereign says :
"Scarcely a day - passes that I do not
receive one or more appeals to join one
or the other of the revolutionary orders
being formed in this country, and offers
of money and arms are frequently re
ceived if I will give my efforts to the
cause oi revolution. Thus far I have
persistently declined to give any encour
agement to such movement. But if
through the writings of snch men as
Dazell, revolution come in epite of all
efforts to prevent it, I will not be found
among the cowards nor on the side of
the plutocratic classes."
In conclusion, Mr. Sovereign fires
parting shot at Air. Dalzell by warning
him. to desist. from recommending war
relief to the people. One word, he
saye, in favor of war with a foreign
country wonld multiply tenfold a desire
for revolution at home,

" tFOR WOMAN'S GOOD.
Noble Self-Sacrifice of the Sisters of the
Good Shepherd. ' ,
"The hermits of old" forswore at!
th'e pleasures of life that they might
devote themselves entirely to medita
tion and prayer the Sisters of the
Good Shepherd, in this nineteenth cen
tury, renounce all the material benefits
of life and shut, themselves up in clois
ters not for themselves done, not sim
ply to avoidi the world and all its vain
pomps, but first and aboveg all for the
preservation end .redemption of wom
anhood. God's' creatures first unpro
tected girlhood and erring:, sorrowing'
womanhood the salvation of thes-j
constitute the life work of the Sistera
,of the Good Shepherd. For this noble
and Christian end fhey leave home and
friends, ease and luxury, and renounce
the world as completely as "the hermits
of old."
No one can join the order of the Good
Shepherd unless her reputation and the
reputation of her family is free from
all blemish. And yet these spotless
women not only bury themselves alive
for the love of the God they adore, but
they gladly give themselves heart and
soul to the preserva tion and redemption
of their less fortunate sisters.
Deep within the stone walls of the
mausoleum which, they call their
"house" they work earnestly and lov
ingly, with willing' hands, cheerful
hearts, and dauntless energy, from four
in the morning; till nine at night, day
in and day out, year in and year out,
from the day they take their vows,
pledging themselves to God and their
special work to the day they lie in their
cells dying and all for womanhood
for her preservation, if she is virtuous
but helpless: for her salvation if she
is fallen.
Fallen woman, when the world turns
froto .her in scorn, when she drinks the
hitter dregs of humiliation and degra
dation, when all is lost but life and the
power of suffering, fallen woman in
her last extremity can always find n
home and a refuge beneath the same
roof as the pure, self-sacrificing Sister
of the Good Shepherd.
1 To this heaven-inspired sister there
is no world, and there never will be any
but the dreary world within the cold
stone walls around her; no society but
that of helpless innocents or wrecked
unfortunates; and yet she goes through
her life cheerful and happy, content and
joyful if she save by gentle precept and
exemplary conduct a few out of the
thousands to whom she devotes her vir
tues, her intellectual accomplishments,
her patience and her life. Chicago

THE GRAPE
INDUSTRY.
Important
Business In the Eastern
States.
The management of the vineyard is an
interesting study and one whioh to be
successful requires technical knowl
edge.' In the large vineyards, 'as a rule,
the owner .himself gives personal super
vision to every detail; sometimes a
manager or overseer performs thesa
duties. One of the largest growers m
this section tells me that the most suc
cessful grower is the. foreigner who
with hia family of eight or ten comes
and leases or buys 25 or 50 acres of
land, each member of the family having
his or her part in the work to perform
from spring until picking time, while
the winter is devoted to the making of
the baskets. Thus no outside expendi
ture is incurred and when the grapes are
sold the proceeds return to the family
as the profit on the individual labor of
each member quite in contrast with
the large owner who is compelled to
hire help to do each little thing, in addi
tion to buying his baskets.
The Concord grape is the only variety
of any consequence raised in this re
gion, and some idea of the magnitude
of the business carried on may be had
when it is known that the shipments
this year from Chautauqua county alone
amounted to 3,500 car loads, 3,uuo dos-
kets of ten pounds each in each cur.
These are taken from the grower ny
some one of the numerous growers' as
sociations, whose business it is to find
a market. Strange as it may seem it is
nevertheless true that three-fourths of
them go to points west of Chicago,
while the other one-fourth travels east
ward.
The making of baskets is an impor
tant item. Many factories are em
ployed. The price ranges from two to
two and a half cents per basket; thus
the grower who would find his business
in any way profitable must in addition
to the cost of.the basket realize at least
one cent per pound for his grapes, while
to-day it is a common thing to find a
ten-pound basket on the retail market.
slow sale at ten cents. Thus we find
that the utmost care must taken in the
management of a vineyard to make it
Drofitable. Robert Lew Seymour, in

DANGER IN FOOTBALL.
Friends of the Game Stand Up in
. Its Defense.
Sport Without Danger to Be Found
Only In Bach Game as Croquet .
. or Squat Tag Compara
7';V tlve Cases.
- The annual protest against the rough
ness and brutality of football as played
in American colleges and schools was so
vigorous at the close of this yearB
si-uson that the friends of the game are
coming forward with facts to show that
it is no more dangerous than any other
vigorous exercise - or game, and they
cite bicycle accidents, shooting acci
dents and drowning while sailing or
skating to show that the record of foot
ball is not open to serious criticism as
an exceptionally rough game.: .In a late
issue of Harper's Weekly Caspar Whit
ney mentions his ten years' exclusive
study of amateur sport and its develop
ment, and his extensive acquaintance
with football players, adding:
"In all this time I have never had a
friend nor even an, acquaintance who
was killed or permanently injured by
football. On the other hand, I have an
acquaintance who lost his eye, and one
damaged for life playiDg polo; four
friends have been drowned by the up
stttingof a sailboat, two drowned by the
overturning of a racing shell, three
drowned- while swimming, two while
skating.twokilledinhunting, one by an
an infuriated giizzly bear, the other by
a defective rifle; one killed by the care
less handling of a shotgun, and one
lulled by one of those didn't-know-it-v
as-loaded fools who was fingering a
revolver. Several friends and as many
acquaintances have been killed and sev
eral badly crippled while riding or
driving horses."
Mr. Whitney says that in 20 years he
has been able to trace only six deaths di
rectly to foot ball, two of which oc
curred this year: One of these deaths
was that of Bert Serf, of the Doane col
lege football team in Kansas. He died
from injuries received while playing the
University of Kansas team at Lawrence,
in that state, on November 14 last. A
New York representative, of the new
journalism declares that Serf was killed
in a mass play, and was picked up un
conscious after a scrimmage. Chan
cellor Snow, of the University of Kan
sas, has written a letter giving the facts
about the death of young Serf, who was
only 18 years old. Chancellor Snow
says:'
"Speak of the Kansas eleven, the
lightest man. in the team, weighing
about 150 pounds, had the ball and was
making an end run for a touch down.
He had a clear field for the goal, when
Serf, who was playing f ulj back, ran to
tackle him, and as the result of a too
high tackle was thrown, striking the
ground with his head, just as Speak
carried the ball over the line for a
touch down. The real cause of Serf's
death was hia being out of condition.
lie had been injured in a previous
game, at which time he had been car
ried off the field unconscious on account
of an injury to his head. He. was laid
out during the first half of .the game
with Kansas.and the refbree and others,
members of the Kansas team, protested
against his being allowed to continue
in the game. He should not have been
allowed to play at all."
Chancellor Snow then, makes an im
portant suggestion. He suggests that
an "additional official, to rank with the
referee and umpire, a medical adviser,
be appointed, with full power to remove
from the game any man of either eleven
who is clearly not in. condition to con
tinue the game."
The . chancellor also notes that the
three men of the Kansas team who were
reported "dangerously injured" were
not more than slightly injured. He
adds:
"I have no doubt that an investigation
of the entire list of those reported dan
gerously .and seriously injured wonld
show a general exaggeration of the ac
tual condition of the . players men
tioned." .
Mr. Whitney supplements this by the
declartion that in all the games that
Harvard, Yale, Princeton and Pennsyl
vania have played there has never been
a death. These games have been the
hardest played in the entire country.
He also declares that there is no record
of a permanent injury in any of these
games, and that the most serious acci
dent in any of them was that of a
broken breast bone. The man who met
with the accident is strong and well to
day. Mr. Whitney says that if we wish
to have sport without danger we must
confine ourselves to croquet or squat
tag, or pleasure of that grade. N. Y.
