R. & N. company's gross earnings for September were S'578,000, an increase over the same month last year of 190,000. According to the London Lan cet the recent visit to America of Dr. Keith, who came to perform a surgical operation, is the first in stance since the declaration of independence of an American having summoned medical aid from the old country. New York and Philadelphia are worrying over "the alarming prac tices of the degrading Chinese." New York and Philadelphia pooh poohed at our "silly Pacific coast prejudices" a few years ago, and now having learned by experience they talk worse about it than any of the "silly Pacific coast people." The more they get of the Mongo lian the less they'll like him. During Grant's last illness the discusssion went on as to "what creed he professed. Now the question is being argued whether he was a Democrat or a Repub lican. Of Chas. James Fox it was cynically said, "He, born for the universe, uarrowed his mind, and to party gave up what was meant for mankind." This could never be said of Grant. Whether Republican or Democrat, he was first of all an American, a lover of his country and a defender of the national life. Type writers, it is said, are be ing extensively used by anony mous letter writers, frauds, etc., who are extremely anxious to dis guise their hand writings, and the officers and courts are every day experiencing more trouble than ever before in the detection of frauds who now use a type writer instead as formerly, of writing au tograph letters. The invention opens a new field for adventurers, blackmailers, impostors and frauds. The purple ink used is also fugi tive and speedily disappears. There is said to be a scheme afoot in the Highlands of Scotland to transport a large number of the crofters to the Hawaiian Islands, to take the place of coolies on the sugar plantations. The crofters are not the right sort of men for such labor. They are sturdy, independ ent yeomen, who would make their way in the United States if they but had the means to get here. There is plenty of room in the United States for men like the crofters. There should be room for them in any country, but land monopoly in Scotland has made it impossible for these honest, indus trious people to make a living. Two-thirds of the country is owned by 330 men. The London liberals have dug a mine to be exploded under the tories, in pursuance of agitation on behalf of overworked railway servants. The victim of the com ing attack is the Right Hon. Will iam Henry Smith, secretary of war in the present tory government, who was immortalized some years ago as Sir Joseph of Gilbert and Sullivan's "Pinafore." Smith is lessee and proprietor of all the book stalls in all the railway sta tions throughout Great Britain. Be has an absolute monopoly of this business and has become im mensely rich by means of it, his fortune being estimated to be millions of pounds. It has just become known that he compels boys in his employ, some of whom arc only fourteen years old, to work from 5 a. m. to 10 r. jr. for 1.75 a week. Liberal commit tees propose to give widespread publicity to these facts, and the exposure is sure to create a storm of indignation. The rapid growth of the Knights of Labor in the United States and Canada is brought prominently into notice by pub lished reports of the general as- sembly, now convening at Hamil ton, Ont., and by the recent suc cess of the Knights in electing the mayor of Newark, Conn., against formidable opposition. The Can ada convention was opened "with an address from General Master Workman Powderly, in which he claimed 4,000 assemblies of Knights, embracing 200,000 mem. bers, nearly all the growth of the past seven years. He said that in 1878 the order was unknown to the world, and belonged to a few. To-day it is known and respected everywhere, and belongs to every man and woman who toils for a livelihood, and every slave of the earth who irks for freedom from the tyranny of aggregated capital. The use of dynamite and violence was denounced, the holding of public lands by aliens deprecated as wrong, the introduction of cheap foreign labor stigmatized as un-American and unpatriotic, and should be resisted. If the JSnsayo Medico of Ca racas, a journal unearthed by the Lancet, may be believed, the seeming impossibility of a tailed man need no longer prove a stum bling block to the faith of would be evolutionists. In tho last issue to hand of this print the following paragraph eccurs: "There has just been an interesting discovery in Paraguay of a tribe of Indians furnished with tails. One day a number of workmen belonging to Tacura Tayu were engaged in cutting grass, when their mules were attacked by Guayacugan In dians and some of them killed. The workmen pursued them and succeeded in capturing a little boT eight years of age. He was taken to Senor Francisco Golrochoe at Posedas, and it was then discov ered that he had a tail ten inches long. The boy says that he has a brother who has a tail as long as his own, and that all the tribe have tails." There are clearly no half measures about these tails, and if boys of eight have them ten inches long there is no saying what may be the length of the tail of a full grown man." It would have added to the interest of this information if we had been further told how the tails are worn whether proudly aloft like that of a collie or in the downcast manner of a cow. NEW TO-DAY.
