Signi

As tbe real figures are revealed, the pitiable character of tbe immigration boom in western Canada is evident. For- live or six years the Canadian boomers have been asserting that each year saw 400,OCO to 500,000 farmers leave the United States and in settle Mahitoba, Al­berta and Saskatchewan, and that the cash carried with them averaged $1,000 for each person.

The New York Farmer at no time took any stock in the insane Canadian boom, and it has been the means of preventing hundreds of Americans from being de­ceived and defrauded in ihe Immigration1 frameup. Now the truth is being re­vealed. The collapse of the Canadian bo'om is reported both in Canada and iu * the United States. For illustration a re-, port of July 10th from Washington, D .! C., say: “Secretary Wilson of the de-' paitment of labor says that reports show that the number of American citizens emigrating to Canada is decreasing. For several years the tide of emigration across the northwest borders of the Uni-1 ted States grew to such proportions as to cause anxiety to government officials ( and others. In 1912 about 97,951 Amer- j lean citizens went to Canada, while the number returning from that country to} the United States was only 38,317. In , the eleven months ended May 31st, 1914, j if is asserted, 68,396 citizens of this country emigrated to the Dominion, while 44,127 Americans returned to the United States. Many of those who are returning are seeking information from the government as to land on which they may settle. These cold figures of record throw a ghastly light on the entire Cana-, djan fake. In 1912 the boomers assert­ed that 400,000 Americans entered Can­ada. The fact is that at most only 97,- 951 Americans made that foolish move, and 38,317 of them hurried baek across' the border. In the eleven months end­ed 31st, 1914, only 68,396 Americans are said to have crossed the border into

; Canada, while 44,127 recrossedl the bon*; der from Canada into the United States,; leaving a beggarly 24,269 who will re­main until next fall. The collapse of the boom will not end even when the

of Canada. The same midsummer frosts and other influence? tbat drivethe Amer- icans.out of those provinces will drive out settlers of other nationalities. Al­ready many of the Europeans have left -Western.Canada and settled in the Uni­ted States, and the next census in Cana­da will probably show as great a disap­pointment in fhe matter of population as the census of 1911 showed. There nev­er was any sane reason for Americans to move into Manitoba, Alberta or Sas­katchewan, and there never will be a sane reason for so insane a move. The boomers may rest from their booming now. ____

An Epoch in Showdom.When Mr. Haag decided to inaugurate

his 18th year as a successful purveyor of first-class amusements, to the public he mapped out his route from coast to coast, openingTiis season in early March at Shreveport. Since then the show has traversed the states of Texas, California, Arkansas, Kansas, Oklahoma, Illinois, Indiana, West Virginia, Kentucky, Vir­ginia, Tennessee, Ohio, North Carolina, South Carolina, and part of Georgia; and before closing will make Florida, Alabama, Mississippi and Louisiana, es­tablishing a transcontinental record nev­er attempted by any show in any one season. The show has used 56 railroads sb iar this season, exhibiting twice daily with the exception of Sunday.

Nature has been very good to -the ( mighty Haag shows this season, having, been exceptionally so in the wild animal department. The baby camel, Lula* is easily the favorite baby, with the baby elephant close behind. Daily you can witness the children of the different, cities picking their favorite baby in the | big menagerie, which is most always ih a baby camel. I

The mighty Haag shows will exhibit at Delhi August 20.

li HA* B**n Ob»erv«d Fot* Citrturi** In Auitri*'* Boy*[ Pxmily-,

A strange burial ceremony baa ob tainefit among th© HapsburgSktle oldest of the royal families of Kunon*" Tor sev­eral hundred years, Wfierf#er hie 40i- peror dies Ms body Is carried by. the, nearest way from the imperial palCee to the monastery of the '©apubhln Honks on the outskirts of Vienna. Only- a few officials form the incwupietious escort.

Arriving at the door of the crypt of the monastery, which te found locked, the master of ceremonies knoGta upon it with his gold staff and demands ad­mittance.

“Who is there?” comes the woice of a monk from behind the bolted door.

“His roy'al majesty the emsperor of Austria, king of Hungary, duke of Btyrla,” reciting the long list of titles borne by the dead monarch,

“We know no such naan,” curtly re­plies the voice within.

Agate the master of cexemonies knocks and demands admission; .again the voice of the guardian naorik dc mauds, “Who te there?” ■ Again the master of ceremonies recites the list of honors and titles horne by the dead man—and again the voice from within replies, “We know no suoh man.”

A third time the muster of cere­monies knocks, and a third time the monk within asks, “Who te there?” •

"Our brother, "Joseph Hapsburg” (or whatever was the simple name of the dead king).

At this humhle confession of the equality of the dead man "with all hit­man flesh the bolts fly baek swiftly. “Bnter, brother!” cries the monk, stand­ing welcoming in the doorway, and tto body Is taken within. Later the body is returned to the palace and a fnneral with all the pomp of-royalty is con­ducted from the princely mansion. Rut this first strange ceremony ia never omitted.—Washington Star.

DONKEYS IN EGYPT.

Brutally Uaad Are Thm Despised Friend* of the Native*.

In Egypt the donkey te the chief beast of burden. Every farmer lias at least two or three of them, ,imd when to goes to his fields he rides with his friends on donkeys, He does not use a proper saddle, bnt has a couple of sacks strapped over the animal's baek. No reins are used, and stirrups are never thought of.

The donkeys are' sometimes used in a raOSt brutal fashion; fhe thalr riders guide them with a stick; bitting them on the left side of the head when they want them to go to tho right, and vice versa.' If the donkey’s arre not go­ing fast enough some rldecs rub the rough end of a stick along the spine or prick them behind the neek with a needle fixed into the stick tbey use for guiding.

When Egyptian women ride the donkey they sit astride, and the young fellahah, or fanner’s daughter, can go at a greut speed. Most of the older women, however, are either too poor to afford one or too stout to balance on one.

It is common sight to see a man rid­ing on a donkey and bis wife trotting behind, barefooted and carrying an infant te her arms and a large basket on her toad. The Egyptian fairmer has no idea of women’s rights. Besides carrying the farmer to and from his labor, tbe donkey has to carry bundles of birseem or clover from the fields to tbe horses and buffaloes In the villages and towns, for gauss and hay are al­most unknown in Egypt.

When the donkey is not being work­ed it is roped to a peg to tto ground and Its two front feet are tied to­gether. so that it cannot move more than two yards. It is the natives’ de­spised friend.

A Joke of Mark Twain'*.The theatrical godfather off William

Mark Twain te referring to the matter said that when he used Ills influence to get yonng Gillette on the stage to thought he was playing a great joke on the management, for he did not think Gillette had tha slightest aptitude for acting. But it tnmed out to be no joke, after all. “I don’t know,” said' MarkTwidi; “which 3 like better —ha'vteg’ Gillette .mate a tremendous success or seeing, one of my jokes go wrong.” _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Food Should Be Caryfully Selected aad/ Properly Varied. i -

The eminent American physiologist Lusk says that nature, throbgh the de­vice of appetite, usually provides .against the use of improper food, but that reason must play a part te food ©elections. A glass of milk and a piece oft pie are topr,.inateria]s for-tfte Kraip *f an activeMslness'man whose seden­tary life requires 2,500 beat units or calorie* to maintain his body machin­ery.

We need also water, salts, proteins aiid Certain newly discovered sub stances called vitamtaes. AH these materials; sare/M -be i found in milk, beans, bread and other great funda­mentals of nutrition.- Solutions of eane sugar or of glucose are not the excln sive mainstays of life, and yet glucose taken alone yields 2,500 calories at a co(st of 4 1-6 cents, and 2,500 calories in the form of cane sngar cost 8 1-3 cents.

Glucose te the-cheapest food fuel Imqwnjbu% like^an.e sugar or butter fqt, Is not a complete food in that it does not contain everything necessary for life.

COROT, THE ARTIST.

His Whole Life Was * Song, and Melo­dy Permeated HI* Work*.

Those painters who also have tto feeling and some of the proficiency of a musician reveal it in their work They are usually colorists, with more eYe for the colors and tones of nature than her shapes and forms.

Such a one was Corot. He had a good tenor voice and played on tbe violin. He sang at his work and sang, tdo, when he was not pa luting, but wandering through the forest of Eon tsinebteau or around the village of Ville d’Avray, absorbing tlie beauty of the scene and storing up i mpressions for future pictures. In fact. Ms whale Idng life of seventy-nine years was to Le Pere Corot, as bis friends loved to call bim, a song.

And one-feels It In his pictures, at least tn bis later ones, by which he is best known. Tbeir coloring is subdued like a lullaby or waking snug, for it was the dawn or twilight tlmt lie pro ferred to paint. His works vibrate With the hum of melody, and luce iin.1 there is an neeent of effect tlmt tretn liles like the string of bis violin

Power of Falling Water.Still water gives no power, no en

ei’gy. Falling water lias only as mu b pbwer as Is represented b,v Its weight A gallon of falling water will develop ah mncb power as a falling block of Tt’on weighing 62.5 pounds of course tbo greater the fall the greater the pow er developed. Water falling one firot will develop a pressure of .43 pounds per square Inch of pipe. Tbe same amount of water falling 1(50 feet will develop a pressure of 43.31 pounds per square inch o f pipe. Falling 1.C00 fept it would produce a pressure of 433.03 pounds per square Inch" off pipe. To compute tbe power of felling water tt is necessary to multiply tee volume of flowing wafer to cubic feet per minute by its weight, .62.5 pounds, and ibis product by the vertical height of the fell in feet, and divide by 33.C0U. the dumber of foot pounds representing one horsepower for one minute.—New York World.

Every'week or two a few additions !|re mafde to the list of. things that may lie manufactured out of paper. It looks as if a: paper world might materialize an a aot far distant future. Says a confcri- *hutor to Prometheus (Leipzig, Ger.):

"It is doubtful whether another mate­rial so universally useful as paper-pulp is to be found. Car wheels of paper made a great sensation years ago, but paper belting and cog wheels are now well known, as are paper garments, which are now used in great quantities in the Chicago City Hospital, being burn­ed afterward. Even paper stockings and towels have been used in America, and fiaper tow- Is are used on the South Ger­man railway sleeping cars. In America wafer proof raincoats are made of paper that ean be folded up and put in one’s pocket," while the Japanese coolie {Jap­an is the land where walls and windows are made of pai er) can buy a paper waterproof for a few certs and wear it a year. Barrels, pails, bathtubs, eook- ing utensils and wash-boards of paper are to be found in many houses. Floor coverings and wall bangings of paper are nothing new, while gas-pipes are pot seldom met Paper insulating material, imitation leather, and threads and fab rics of the same material follow without number. Sails are something new In the way o f paper articles, while hygienic paper drinking cups and .bottles that can be thrown away as soon as used are em­ployed in greater and greater numbers. Paper-pulp and paper of all kinds have won out as packing material, from the finest examples of the industrial carton to the coarse paper bag for weights ef a hundred pounds or more. Lately paper- pulp has appeared as a substitute for wood in carpentry, especially in ship­building, where lightness is all-impor­tant. Boards, laths, etc., of paper palp which can easily be pressed into shape, are much cheaper than those of wood, !<s are plastic ornaments of all kinds. Bach imitation boards of paper-pulp can easily be fastened together with paper screws—tbe newest things in paper pulp. These short records seem to In* dicate the early use of paper-pulp in an almost universal field.’’—The Literary Digest.

Hong Kong, '’July 25—Figiiting gen continues in Formosa between the na­tives and the Japanese, in spite ojtihe superior arms and resources of ihe lat­ter. In one of the recent collisions, a. band of200 tribesmen were mowed down by machine guns, losing a quarter of their number in dead and wounded. Yet in spite of forced retreats, the Formo­sans seem to present as diffloult a pro­blem in pacification as the Spaniards are facing in Morocco. Owing ta the wild and ragged nature of the islands, which has never been explored by foreigners* the tribesmen are able to elude the forces they so seriously annoy.

That steam monster of the Erie, tbe 430 ton locomotive* Matt H. Shay, failed last Thursday to draw 250 cars loaded with eoal from Binghamton to Sttsqae haona. A large crowd gathered to see the start of the train and the test was witnessed by President Underwood cf the Erie and other officials from a spe­cial which ran alongside of tite train on the other track. The train was in change of Conductor L. A. Ludlow and Engin­eer Tighe, and extended from a point ia front of the State Hospital to Lamgdou.

Everything went well until the 75th car behind the engine developed two bet boxes a few miles the other side of Kirk­wood. When these were cooled ffie train again set out and went through Great Bend at the rate of 20 miles per hour. The next difficulty was experi­enced at Red Rook, a few miles tbe other side of Great Bend, where the en­gine became stalled on the grafes. After several attempts fhe engine started but it was no sooner under way than the train broke in two. It was consider­ed useless to try to continue the journey and help was summed from Susquehan­na, the train being drawn iu two sec­tions. . e#>» <<*• -----------

The great ratil had been benight by a syndicate and closed as unnecessary to the system,The syndicate had to continue to pay the taxes as heavy as though the works were in operation, and it was decided there­fore to destroy them. Charges of dyna­mite were placed under tbo tali chim­neys and at various places in ihe walls throughout the manufactory. Hie cart­ridges were exploded simultaneously by electric connections, and the whole place became a mass of broken walls and piles of brick.
