PCHLISUEO EVERY THURSDAY

A. FDGAH NIX.
Over thirteen hundred trade journals
are now published in the United States.
Statistics go to show that thc malt
population of the civilized world is fail¬
ing farther aud farther behind the fe¬
male.
The Liverpool Journal of Commerce
is informed that the engineering world
will shortly be startled by theappeiraneo
of a new engine which will revolutionize
motive power.
A few days ago, ' soliloquizes the Bos
ton Trnnmint American A™* • , boomers ,, were
all headed for Canada. Now Canadian
boodta, coming across «h, border.
Boodling is a bad rule that wiwl-d orh.s hnih ootn
ways.
A weighing machine has been invented
which weighs cars at the rate of six per
minute, the cars being moved along the
track. A device automatically records
the weights on a piece of tape similar to
that used on the ticker machine.
While flats are becoming increasingly
popular iu France among people of mod¬
erate means, people in a corresponding
position in Germany are as anxious to
live in houses of their own, and a corn
pauy has just been formed iu Berlin to
finable them to do so.
The native population of Alaska has
decreased 8000, or over twenty per cent.,
in ten years. The cause, laments the St.
Louis Republic , was the usual one—edu¬
cation by association with white people
and the attempt to assimilate the highly
developed vices of civilization.
Says the San Francisco Chronicle:
Over one hundred of the Mescalero
Apaches in New Mexico have asked that
lands be set apart for them in severalty.
Quite recently an extensive allotment of
this sort was made iu the Southern part
of this State. This is the correct solu
tion of the Indian problem. Give them
the same privileges as the white man,
and no more, and let them sink or swim.
Two new Atlantic liners, to be 600
feet long and faster than anything afloat
are guaranteed by the builders to be
ready for sea early in the spring of 1S93.
They will be almost as long as the Great
Eastern, though not nearly so wide.
They will have quite as much eugiue
power as that unfortunate steamship had,
but it will be so compact aud econo¬
mized that it will not occupy one-third
as much space nor be one-quarter the
weight of thc old paddle and screw
engines.
It is difficult to estimate, confesses the
New York News, the amount of money
that has been left in Europe this year by
American tourists. Taking all the ex¬
penses into consideration, however, the
passages out and home and the average
sum disbursed on the other side, the
aggregate cannot be far from $75,000,
000. All of this has to be paid
out of the products of labor in this couu
try,and if it is not returned in the shape
of the gold paid for our wheat, petrole¬
um aud other articles, it will represent
the cost paid by this country for the
pleasure of its citizens abroad.
