Japan la a densely populated coun try, but It la aald that less than lOn.fsm native have emigrated during the pant quarter of a century, and of these only 4.000 or o.(M have come to the Vol ted Ktate. The remainder have gone to the Pacific Inlands, particularly to Ha waii, or nettled on the Asiatic main land. The trend of population to the cities ha Isi ome noticeable even In far-off Australia, as Ih shown by a etatlKtic.il return recently laid liefore the Kouth Australian Parliament. Max O'Kell observed the sa rue ten1ency, and say of the Australian worklngman Uiat "He bangs about Meltioiirne and 8ydney while the whole country U calling loud ly for more laborer to develop it" It la not surprising that the Anstm llana should take exception to some of M. Blouet'a criticisms In his latest book, and accuse him of tnacouracy when he la particularly uncomplimentary. Kays the Melbourne edition of the Hevlew of Reviews: "Max O'Kell offers one more proof that the traveling lecturer, s he flies from platform to plntfortn. Is the worst possible critic of the country be visits. " Five thousand dollars damages for printing the Columbian ode before It was delivered ia setting a prettty high price on a poem by an author of only limited reputation. It Is to be feared that It will lead impecunious poets to oniloflvftr to liava thulf r,i-..,4ti.t(-,r,. printed without their consent by re- j sponsible newspaper in order to force the later to make compensation. This verdict may be the signal for a flood of poetical effusions. The English language la to become the missionary language of the world. The fact that at th- recent national coogreaa In India all the add resses were In English, la a striking illustration of the wide diffusion of that tongue. There were gathered at Madras 7"0 delegate from all parts of India. Afghanistan, N'epaul and Hclnde. They spoke nine different language, and the F.ngllsh wan the only medium through which the proceeding could be satisfactorily condoctad.

The Orientals are doing some hard sea fighting, while the otfWrs of n.i vies of the world are h.kh)g on and getting all the pointers they can from the game. We say the Orientals: but what part they play lu It ls-sldes fur nishing the cash Is not quite certain. Their ships and guns are of Kuro-:tn build and at least one fleet, the li1:i , seem to ! offh-ered with Caunis ians to a considerable extent. It re quires no great bravery on the part of VU-eroy I J Hung Chang to send out a fighting machine bought and mantusl In Kurope. Nevertheless It Is a real ad vance, considering Chinese supers:! tlon. But the white man's Implements of war do not seem to prevail against the Mikado, whose guns so far have de stroyed not less than six men-of-war fighting under the flag of the Flowery Kingdom. Polic e and I'ollth s. "Have you threatened to shoot a man In this courj?" "No, sir; I only told him he was not fit to live." The question was put to a pollcemnn In the examination Into the doings of the New York mllce. When he was asked why he thought the man not tit to live, he could not tell. Several wit nesses were then called, who ti-stllied that the policeman did threaten to blow the man's brains out. What was it all alsmt? The man threatened, or at any rate told he was not fit u live, was to ( a witness be fore the investigating committee. He knew all about certain disgraceful do ings by the police In one quarter of the city, and Intended to tell w hat he knew, A week before the committee resum ed Its sessions, after the summer, one of the former witnesses., who had ex posed the complicity of the ptW with "green gooda" men, appeared In one of the police atatlons with a gash In his throat He aald be had been drugged and stabbed. The jmllce declared he had tried to commit suicide. Klther supposition Is possible the first because the man I one of low character; the. second ttecanse It Is the Interest of the police to stop the mouths of those who can tell the truth about them. The whole evil Ilea In the two mis taken Ideas that all mencrliiilnsl and Innocent ha ve a right to voice In the sele-tlon of those who are to execute the laws, and that the control of the police la a matter properly to fe de cided by party politic. Youth's Com panion. Grateful. In Mrs. Olive Tborne Miller' vol ume, "Our Home Pets," Is told a story of a dear collie dog and his gratitude. The dog. It appears, was a great In the family of a colonial soldier, and was parfl'ulsrly noted for his antip athy to Indians, whom he delighted to track. On one campaign against the French the dog Insisted on accompanying his master, although his feet were In a terrible condition from having been frozen the previous w inter. During the fight, which ended In the famous Hraddock defeat, the dog was ever lw slde his master; but when It was over they became separated, and the sol dier, concluding that his pet had been killed, went home without him. Some weeks later, however, the dog appeared In his old home, separated from the battle-field by many mllca of thick forest. He was tired and worn but over his sore feet were fastened neat moccasins, showing that he had been among Indiana, who had been kind to him. Moreover, he soon proved that he had changed hi mind about hla former foe, for neither bri!e nor threat could eer again Induce htm to track an Indian. The Voracious Hotelkeeper. Having discovered that the vagaries of some of the Pari hotel proprietors In the way of charge have influenced a number of English and American families who used to snd some weeks at certain season of the year In the French capital to give a wide berth, or.

The vossiscbe Zel tUB? will print the following: narrative obtained from Armenian sources: Atidakah waa besirge-i in August. Grgo with his followers strengthened their position and defendei It heroical ly for six dy, generally fighting with tone and daggers. The women often took the places of the ineu who had been killed. The portion becoming untenable, Grgo left the women to defend it aud took his troop out to forage for food and ammunition. Th women maintained the defense twenty four hours, then yielded to greater numbers after being surrounded on all sides. Their end was terrible. Many carried babies on their backs, while the eld- r children stood beside them. The women saw that tbey never could fight their way through the ranks of the enemy, (irgo's wile stepped on a high rock and cried: -Sisters, you must choose between two lhlngs;elther fall Into the hands of the Turks and forget your husbands, home and holy religion, to adopt Islam aud to be vio lated, or you must follow my example." Thereupon, holding her joting child In ber arms, she dashed herself Into the bvsa. Others followed her, falling without cry or moan. The children followed their mothers and the ravine waa soon filled with corpse. The women who jumped last were not hurt, as their companion's bodies were plied blgh. About fifty women and 100 chil dren were taken prisoners. The wom en bore the torture stientlr and refused to betray Grgo and his brave followers. Trouble With ihm InitUua Salt Lake t itv, I tah. Dec. 7. Re ports from the scene of the Indian in. raaion continue to grow more alarming Governor West has received appeals from the settlers of Grand and hati Juan counties begging that If troops or militia cannot be sent for their protec tion they be given arms aud ammuni tion themselves. Having failed to hear from Washington, Governor West de tailed General Tauer of the Utah militia to proceed to the scene ot the threatened trouble with IJ0 nrtes and 100 arounds of ammunition to provide the settlers with the means of protec tion. The latest advices come from the sheriff of Grand county, who says the Indians have ordered the white settlers to vacate, claiming the land as their own. Indignation at the course of tbe invaders to cross the line is at a white heat throughout southern I 'tali.

It 1 under etood here that there is no truth lu the .Shanghai rumor ot the ten days' armis tice between China and Japan, Ac cording to well informed diplomatic rumors there is no reason to believe that Japan proposes to follow tbe ex ample of Garmauy in the franco-Prussian war aud retain possession of cer tain parts ot advantage iu tbe con quered territory until tlie war tdemulty thai) be paid and the guarantee ot fu ture peace aud tbe lull recognition ot Orea are given. Of course In view ol the fact that the peace negotiations are merely In the Incipient stage as yel, all report that the Japanese will de mand a heavy Indemnity and the ces sion of Chinese territory are baaed on speculation merely. It can be slated with some degree of positlveneaa that Japan will probably insist upon lu re tention of l'orl Arthur as hostage for the fulfillment of the peace condl tiens. foal-bull Appruveil.
