Now the Zimes is the laughing stock of all England. It is bad enough when acarof tainted meat is about to be offered for sale by a sleading packing company and stopped only by the intervention of the meat in- spector. It is about time that in addi- tion to the confiscation of the unfit.food, that the parties offering it for sale be subject to a heavy fine. A RIDICULOUS proposition evolved in the fertile brain of one of our cotempo- ravies is the abolition of all personal tax. This briiliant genius does not know that our state constitution ex- pressly requires the taxation of all property, real or personal. Perhaps he isable to amend the constitution by a city ordinance. It is signmficant that England is now building large canals between her trade centers, Liverpool and Manchester and Liverpool and Birmingham. In this country canal building is saxd to be out of date and represents little more than & waste of money. But the activity of ‘English capitalists in extending their internal water ways in a thickly popu- Tated region is a strong argument in favor of maintaining that cheap means of transportation even in America. A MOsT peculiar state of affairs exists fo Enst St. Louis. In years gone by ‘that town kept on borrowing money for ‘public improvements with the expecta- tion that in the future it would be one of the metropolitan cities of the west. But instead of growing East St. Louis ‘has dwindled down toa straggling vi iage while its indebtedness has swelled to enormous proportions. In addition to the heavy interest on the principal, a judgment of several hundred thousand dollars is pending owing to a recent de- cision of the courts. To meet these aceruing obligations, a special levy of 18 per cent on the taxable property is necessary., Such a levy would result in virtual confiscation of the homes of the poorer classes, The only way out of the dilemma scems to be for the city to go into voluntary bankruptey and through a receiver make a settlement with its creditors. East St. Louis pr sents a sad example of reckless d counting of futures, o I THERE is o very favorable promise that the lockout in the iron trade will "be of short duration. Thus far nine- teen firms, including some of the largest ‘mills in the country, have signed the scale submitted by the Amalgamated as- sociation, and it is not deubted that most of the others will promptly follow, so that very likely before the end of the ‘present month the large majority of the ‘mills will again be in active operation. This is an outlook upon whichall parties ‘in interest are to be congratulated, and it should be remarked that the favorable ‘change from the very threatening situa- * tion of ten days ngo is the result of judi- clous mutual concessions, It would ‘have been a very serious matter if all attempts to effect a seftlement had failed. The closing of factovies that ‘employ over oue hundred thousand work- . ingmen would have been well nigh a national disuster. There is now reason- able assurunce that the great iron in- ‘dustry of the country will have another ‘wear of prosperity, Reserve Judgment, The arvest of several alleged. mem- bers of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Eugineers, on the charge of bei gaged in a plot to dar and_destroy | the property of the Burlington Troad company by the of dynnmite, is being commented upon by the news- papers of Chicago and elsewhere in a culated to impress the pub with the belicf that there has rveally been such a plot, and that the men ar- sted ave guilty, The mann Burlington has not been effort to encourage this impre to involve the officials of tho brother- hood in the alleged conspir This way of p the men under arrest, and of attempting to criminate with them men whose character should guard them against the slightest sUs- brought to trial.

DURING the past year Ttalian immi- gration to America has boen unusually heavy., It is‘estimated that fully 15,000 of ghese people have been brought from their homes since January last and that fully two-thivds of them are without work and on the verge of starvation, The cause of this wholesale emigration of the pauper class of Italy has been due to the rivalry of the stcams$hip compan- ies between New York and Genoa. They have not only made a low rate but bave been offering as much as thr dollars a head premium to agents to se- cure emigrants from the overcrowded Ttalian towns. The result has been for these agents to lure thousands of their countrymen into the United States and leave them to their fate. The Italian government as wetl as the authorities of the state of New York have had their attention called to thisabuse.

The prevailing colors are and yellow or orange. The body is decorated with large fignres, crescent-shaped, of either red or yellow feathers. The upper and lateral bov- ders are corded and decorated with alternate tufts of red, black and yellow feathers, The foundation is a network of olona, or native hemp. and to it are attached by fine thread of the same material the feathe of fine birds found only in the Ha nd, and very rare there. Recent writers have declared that the bird is now extinet. The feathers are woven in 8o as to lap each each other '\ml lic flat, forming a smooth plush-like surface. The inner surface is without lining and shows the oloua mnet- work and the quill ends of the feath- crs, The cord of the upper margin is prelonged so as to se as a fastening at the theoat. The yellow feathers are ol tained from the Oo or Uho, and, as stated, arve of great valve, as the bird is are, very shy, and difficalt to capture, and it has but very small tuft of these feathers upon each shoulder. The black feathers are from the head and k of the same bird—its general plumage be- ing a glossy black. The Oo is caught alive by means of bird lime; the yellow feathers are then plucked and the bird reloased. The red feathers are from the body and neck of the drepanis coc- cinea, the most abundant birds of the andwhich islands. The Hawaiian Spectator. a newspaper published in 1839, refers to this, ora similar mantle, as follows: “*Kawkeauli has the Mams, or feather war cloak of his father, Ta-Meha-Meha.

EngineerThom- as, of the Chicago Bridge company vestigating the feasibility of the scheme and J. S. Souther is making soundings to ascertain” the depth of the channel at various points. He finds the average depth to e fifty-five feet, although maximum of 150 feet has been found in one place. The bridge will probably be over one hundred fcet above the sur- face of the water at high tide, so that there will be no interference with navi- gation To accomplish this will nec tate a high grade on cither side of the straits, probably above fifty feet to the mile. The length of the bridge will be between three thousand livo hundred and four thous- and feet, and there will he several solid piers to conmstruct. Although this idge may not be built in the time »d it will soon become a matter of necessity with the Southern Pacific com- pany and must be constructed before long. Traffic was never so heavy on the transfor boat, Solano, as it is at present, and the increase in business by the new line into the Sonoma Valley docs not_tend to relieve the strain, as may well be supposed. By the construction of the bridge the work of handling the husiness of the Sacramento division will be greatly reduced. Better time will be made, as‘the long waits for the transfc boat will be avoided and the transfer it- self will be entirely obviated. With this bridge and the new double track now in course of construction between this city and Port Costa, the railroad company will have splendid facilitios.

L., fell into a-most unscemly ion on unt of the lawless trospassings of a pig owned by one of them. The aggrieved party owned a very fine garden, in which it was his custom to spend his leisure hours,weed- ing, grafting, and transplanting the flowers and vegetables in \\]llL]I he de- lighted. But often, as he enteved his garden in the evening, his ears would be saluted with a grunt and a' rustle, and the fat form of his neighbor’s pig might be scen making a hasty flight from the garden in which it had been placidly rooting all day, In high dudgeon the gardener sought his neighbor “and cmnplnlned of the big's frequent visits, declaring that a ittle vime spent in repairing the pig sty would restrain the pig’s roving pro- |uvnmmm But to this the owner of the pig responded that if his neighbor would keep his rickety fences in prope repair, the pig might take its daily ai ing without lompmtmn. and the garden would not be endangered. Ropeated misdeods on the part of the pig funned the smouldering fires of ‘dis- seusion into the flames of open hostilit At last the eri me. The owner of the garden, rising unusually early one morning, discovered the pig content- edly munching the last of a fine bed of tulip-bulbs.
