iug fairly rati red upon the tusk they
ire MvompliMiing it iu a more system
htio, Uiornii and lusineJiko way
than any other cities, whether iu Ku
rorts America or Australia.
To this work of modem iniprovo
moiit, eppmally iu public nppoiut
meuta, the Hermans seem to huvo
brought more of the seieutilio spirit and
method than any other pi-oplo. Their
habits of thoroughness iu research aud
of patient, exhaustive treatment of any
subject iu band have fully eharaetoristod
their projax'ss iu the arts of civilized
life. Above all, the Germans had already
developed a system of public ailminis
tration more economical and more iu
fallibly effective than could have been
found elsewhere, and they were prepar
! when the growth of their cities and
the new demand for modern improve
ments mode ueeess;iry a great increase
in the number and variety of publio
functions to do in the best possible way
whatever it was derided to undertake.
So coutideiit were they indeed iu the
efficiency of their administrative organ
ization that they dared to assign to the
municipalities spheres of action which
elsewhere have been left to private ef
fort and control.
Municipal councilors in Germany are,
ns a rule, very excellent citizens. It is
considered a high honor to be elected to
the council. Membership is a title of
dignity that merchants, profossioual
men and scholars are usually eager to
hold. No salaries are paid to the coun
cilors, and a penalty is attached to re
fusal to serve if elected. The sentiment
toward these positions is much the same
in Germany as iu Great Britain, though
stronger with men of high education
In Gorman than in fcfrl'ish towns. The
re-election i f good councilors term after
term is common in both countries. It
would be difficult to estimate fairly the
influence of the class system in Prussia
upon the character of city councils as
regards their conservatism, intelligence
aud business ability. Undoubtedly the
recent growth of the social democracy
would have a sharper inufletice upon
the city councils if the class system
were abolished and if the municipal
franchise vere made identical with the
simple manhood suffrage that exists for
purposes of representation in the im
perial legislature the reichstag.
In addition to the magistracy and the
eo.-.acil, there is in Berlin a body of
bout 75 so called "citizen deputies,"
who are selected by the council for their
general fitness to serve as associates on
committees charged with the oversight
of various municipal interests, such as
parks, schools, the care of the poor and
the sanitary services. They have no
authority to vote in tho council, but
they illustrate, at the center of admin
istration, lie excellent practice which
is followed throughout the entire rami
fication of German city government, of
enlistiug t'ue co-operation of unofficial
citizens in managing tho ordinary con
cerns of the community.
The burgomaster and magistrates are
the most highly trained experts that a
German city can secure. The burgomas
ter is an expert in the general art of
municipal administration. Associated
with bim ri the magisterial council ore
experts in law, experts iu finance, ex
perts in education to administer the
schools, experts in engineering to over
see public works of every character, ex
perts in sanitary science, experts in pub
lio charity, experts in forestry and park
management, experts in the technical
and business management of water and
gas supplies, and so on.
The analogy would not be perfect,
but it would answer ronghly to compare
the governmental structure of a German
city with that of a railway corjxirutiou,
in which the board of directors, chosen
by the stockholders, appoint a general
superintendent or manager, a general
passenger agent, a general freight agent,
a chief legal officer, a chief engineer, a
superintendent of motive power and
other general officers and leave to these
high salaried experts, drawn from the
. service of various other transportation
companies, almost the entire manage
ment and operation of the road. The
shareholders represent the voters of Ber
lin, let us say, the board of directors
are the municipal council, the general
superintendent is the chief burgomaster,
and the general officers at the head of
departments are the magistrates.
The magistratoratb, or stadtrath, of
a German city is, then, a body of dis
tinguished and honored, highly paid,
professional, expert employees and not
a body of citizen representatives, al
though experienced memhers of the body
of citizen representatives may be, and
not infrequently are, promoted to mem
bership in the magistratsrath. The pro
fessional civil service is a vastly greater
and better established field of employ
ment in Germany than in England or
America, and it is particularly difficult
for an American to appreciate its posi
tion and significance. The mayor of an
American city is usually some well
known citizen who is called temporari
ly from private life to occupy the most
authoritative place in the corporation.
The burgomaster of a German city is a
civil servant the permanent head of
permanent body ,of trained officials.
The different between the two is some
what like that between our secretary of
War and the general commanding the
army. Dr. Albert Shaw in Century.
WILD HOG3 IN AHUOIN.
Hie IVgcnerate lrB;eny of Swine of Arl
tocnstlc Aura-airy.
The wildest of wild hogs live both
ftbovo and below Yuma, ou tho Colora
do river. While the steamer was lying
at Cnstlo Dome lauding a few days
siiico, loading with ore, a lino baud of
them ou tho opposite shore camo down
to tho river to food on tho banks, where
tho gr;iss aud weeds wen) given, ami to
get a drink of water. They paid no at
tention to tho boat nor to the Indians
st work. Af tor hiatlng around for awhile
an old tnvir canto out of tho brush, and
on spying us gave a "swish," and away
they all went. Hardly a day pusses that
the Indians and cattlomeu do uot run
upon them. These bands scorn to be
more, timid than ugly.
Wheu tho late Thomas Blytho was
trying to settle a colony at Lerdo, 43
miles below Yuma, ou the Colorado, ho
sent down a largo number of very fino
full blooded Berkshire and Poland
China pigs and turned them loos on
the batiks of the river near Lerdo, where
they lived on tho roots, grass, woods,
tules and mosquito beans; bred, multi
plied, kept fat and filled tho low and
tulo lands with a largo uumbor of ftno
porkers. Never seeing a human being,
except now and thou a lone Indian, they
soon became wild aud wilder still, and
scattered until the lowlands and woods
wore full of them.
Notwithstanding that the coyotes
slaughtered tho little ones iu great num
bers, they have increased uutil it is es
timated that at tho present time there
are more thau 10,000 of them roaming
np and down the Colorado and Hardie
rivers, from their mouths up as high as
tho tide runs, or from (15 to 70 miles
this side of the gulf.
They go wherever they please. Noth
ing stops them in their course. When
the Colorado is at its flood, they will
cross it from shore to shore, even near
the Hardie, w here it is four miles wide
when at its highest gango. Their range
gives them the finest of feed wild
sweet potatoes, tules, stray fish, clams,
dead turtles and seaweed along the river
bunk at low tide.
They are unmolested, except now and
then by a hunter who fimls his way
down the river. Most of tho hunters
give the wild swine a wide berth, ex
cept now and then as they happou to spy
a nice little roaster ou the bank aud
within easy rifle shot
A few years ago a man and his family
were living a few miles below tho col
ony on tho bank of the Colorado. lie
had a pair of very flue, large staghonnds,
which the owuer claimed could ruu
down and kill any wild hog in that
region. One day he took dogs aud rifle
aud went for a nice little one, just right
for the oven. He had not gone far be
fore he found a largo baud of hogs and
turned his dogs loose on them. No
sooner had they started when out of tho
tules near by jumped au enormous boar,
a monster, who, with mouth wide open,
paying no attention to the dogs, made
for the hunter. The latter drew up his
rifle and fired, but on came the hour,
the dogs nipping him at every jump.
The hunter fared a second shot, but
on came the beast The hunter turned
and ran for a mosquito tree a few yards
distant, the hog close to his heels. He
dropped his gun and jumped for life,
graspiug a limb of the tree just as tho
hog grabbed his pants and tore ono-half
of them from him, but he was safe, just
out of reach. The dogs all this while
ran grabbing the hog by the hind legs,
to which the beast paid no attention.
The mad boar seized the bark of the
tree in his great tusks and tore it into
shreds. Finally he tnniod upon the
dogs, instantly killed ono and wounded
the other so thut it died soon after. He
then turned his attiution to tho tree
where sat the hunter. Ho guarded him
until it was dark. Twice did tho man
get down and try to get Jiis rifle, but
his foe was on guard ond drove him
back up the tree. During the night the
boar left Daylight came, and so did
help. The men had hurdly reached the
river and got in their boat when down
came the old hog after thorn in vain pur
suit San Francisco Chronicle.
Indian Tribe and Nation.
The difference between "tribes" and
"nations" of Iudians is not generally
understood, tho two terms Ixdng fre
quently confounded. Mrs. Harriet Max
well Converse thus marks tho distinc
tion: "Tho Seneca Nation is composed
of eight tribes, awl this nation is as dis
tinct among Indians as France, Germany
and England are distinct among tho na
tions of Europe. Tho six nations com
posing the original confederacy of tho
Iroquois, one of tho most powerful con
federacies ever known among primitive
peoples, included the Onondagas, the
Cayugas, tho Seneca, the Mohawks and
the Oneida. The Tascaroras were add
ed in 1723. The name. Iroquois was uot
their proper Indian name, but was de
rived, I believe, from the French and
has been used instead of Ho-de-man-san-ne,
which, being interpreted, signi
fied the people of tho long house. Only
three of the original nations retain res
ervations in New York state, the Mo
hawks, Cayngaa and Onuidas having
crossed the border to Canada with Brant
and Sir William Johnson during the
Revolutionary war. "
Law Steerage Rate and Emigration.
An American writing from London
lays: It is very desirable just now that
an exceptionally sharp eye be kept on
the arrivals in New York, for the re
duction of rates consequent on the steer
age war is attracting a very undesirable
class of emigrants to Liverpool and the
continental ports of embarkation. Nino
dollars, which is now charged for steer
age passage from tho Mersey to Now
York, includes not only tho usual outfit
of bedding and so on, but also tho cost
of the railway journey from London and
Liverpool as welL And, in ciiso of pas
sengers from tho south and southwest of
England and South Wales, the faro in
cludes the difference, if any, between
the railway fare to London or South
ampton and that to Liverpool
