Graver Cleveland, the nominee of the Demo cratic Convention, has attained that distinc tion in spite of perhaps the most determined opposition ever made to a candidate from his own State. He was born in Caldwell, New Jer sey, March 18, 1887. At eighteen years of age he arrived in Buffalo, as he describes it, "friendless, unknown and poor," and was re ceived by hia uncle, who gnvo him & situation as clerk .to support him while studying law. After admission to the bar he was appointed assistant district attorney, and in 1868 elected sheriff, , t ' f riE POPULATION O MEXICO. Tbe census of Mexico gives the population at 9,686, T77. No State, has 1,000,000 ; two Btutes hare leaa than 100,000-, and several Slates have less than 200,000 inhabitants. But Senor Romero thinks that the- population is really not i far from 12,000,000. Eighty-two per cent, of the population lies south of the parallel of Tatiipico. More than half the wealth of the republic lies south of the north ern boundary of "the federal district in which Mexico City is situated. , ; . . LONDON. The great metropolis is without a rival for size and. population. It contains 4,000,000 ol Veople and covers an a'-ea of 11? square miles. Its population ia ahoost equal to that of Can ada ; it is quite equal to that of Holland ; it is greater than that of Scotland and double that of Denmark. It adds 70,000. people, or a city more than half the sL:e of Toronto, to its population annually. Over ita bridges every day 384,000 pedestrians and 75,009 vehicles pass, while its railways earry "873,000 persons daily. Loudon is oue of the wonders, of the BEK OKINKINGt The United Staes Consul at Nuremburg, ill a recent report, said that Bavaria, which is one of the Southern kingdoms of Germany, with a population of 5,284,773, produces i970,000 barrels of beer in a year, 98 per cent, of which is consumed at home This makes a record of ' about 2C0 quarta per year for each man, wo , i man and child of the population.

The boy commenced at the Jead of his class. He was first in every study in the first year he en tered the academy. In the second year he held his first position in all his studies but one; ahd in the third year he found himself again at the head in every branch of studyt He now stands first in the graduating class in all hut one study, Spanish, and in that there is-but One- ! tenth of a mark between him and Cadot San. ford, who is first. Hale is the son of a school tescher. He will be assigned to dntr In thA ' engineer corps of the United States army. ! ' THE GROWTH OF THE ORAKGE TREE. The orange tree is the longest-lived fruit tree known. It is reputed to have attained the ago of 300 years, ahd it has been known to have flourished and borne fruit for more than & hundred yoars. No fruit tree will grow and produce fruit so well under rough treatment. It commences to bear the third or fourth year after budding, and by tha fifth year it will produce, an abundant crop, but it yield will increase gradually under favorable circum stances, and as the years pass on it will be come a very productive tree. The early growth of the orange is very rapid, and by the tenth year it will have increased more than in the next fifty yeajs, so far aa its breadth and height is concerned ; but its age multiplies its fruit stems gTeatly, and an old tree will- some times bear several thousand oranges. IJVYENTITE QUAKERS. The peculiar sect known as the "Shaking Quakers" deserve credit for many useful in ventions of the present. . Moib than half a century ago they first originated the drying of .sweet corn for food, ahd i they first raised, papered and vended garden iBeeds in the pres ent styles. , From their first methods of pre paring medicinal roots and herbs for market sprung the immense patent medicine trad. They began the broom-corn business1. The first buez saw was made by the Shakers at New Lebanon. This is now in the Albany Geologi cal Hall. The Shakers invented meatlie pens, first made of brass and silver. All distilled liquors were abandoned by the Shakers sixty years ago, and during the past forty years no fermented liquors of any sort has been used, except as a medioine. 'Pork and tobacco are also numbered among the "forbidden articles." . A HINT TO DRINKERS- Liquor dealers, it is said, pay on an average of 92 a gallon for whiskey. One gallon eon tains an average of sixty-five drinks, and at ten cents a drink a man pays (6.50 a gallon for his whiskey; or. rather, he pays (3 for the whiskey and $4.60 to the man for handing it over the barJ In view of these figures a West ern paper makes the following practical sug , gestion to drinkers: "Make your wife your -bar-keeper. ' Lend her fa to bay a gallon of whiskey for a beginning, and every time you the time you have drank a gallon she trSl have 18.50, enough to refund the ti borrowed from you, to pay for another gallon of whiskey and a balance of ti.80. She will be able to conduct future operations on her own capital, and when you become an inebriate unable to sup port yourself, shunned and despised by all respectable persons, your wife will have enough money to keep you until yon get ready to fill a drunkard's grave. oysters And starpisi?. The destruction of the oyster industry of Long Island Sound is said to be certain unless some method can be devised to check the dep redations of starfish upon the oyster beds. Capt. Thomas Seott, a well known submarine expert, has bee engaged to dive down among the oysters for an investigation of the work of the destructive "five fingers' and if he finds that starfish can be removed from the beds in purse het&j" hundreds of oyBtermeh will soon be engaged in the use of such nets along the Connecticut coast. One theory of the pest of which the Sound oystermen complain is that the exhaustion of menhaden by the manufact urers of oil and fertilizers has resulted in the rapid increase of starfish, as there are not menhaden "enough to ' destroy the starfish spawn as formerly. Whether the theory is true or false, it is certain that the government ought to restrict menhaden fishing. Connec ticut is the chief New England producer of oysters, and her beds in the Sound are so valu able that their destruction would be a great calamity. SOUTHERN ENTERPRISE. The latest statistics Bhow that during the last six months nearly $70,000,000 has been "invested in new industrial enterprises and en larging those already established in the South. For the past tw months the amount invested was $13,744,000, a falling off from the earlier tetfnttu of the year; due mainly to the usual summer dullness. The list of new ehlefptl3es established daring the first half of the year shows a wide ranee of industries, including cotton mills, woolen mills, flour mills, saw and planing mills, iron furnaces, agricultural im plement factoriesj machine, shot .foundries, cotton seed oil mills, fertilizer factories, t6ba3 co factories, ship building yards, paper mills, and many others. The aggregate investments foot up $69,221,000, Alabama heading the list with $13,840,000, 'Kentucky $13,497,000, Vir ginia $11,0000, Texas $7,934,000, Tennessee $4,849,000, Georgia $3,759,006, Maryland $2", 832,000, North Carolina $2,738,000, West Vir ginia $2,428,000, Louisiana $1,730,000, South Carolina $1,529,000, Florida $1,508,000 and Mississippi $767,000. Types of Scarlet tev?r. A short tithe after fexpostife a person shows a quick pulse, a marked rise of temperature, headache, vomiting, A scarlet rash first on the neck, then on the chest and limba--ftore throat and swelling of the submaxillary glands (those under the lower jaw). This would be a typical case of scarlet fever. . tlut most diseases; both in their onset end in their progress, vary more cr les from the typical and readily distiri- fliihable form. It ia so with scarlet suddenly in cwiiYuLuons. It may be a case of scarlet fevefv But the only proof if any, will be in others being taken down with it. Even a post-mortem will show no sign of it.

"But even thiB may ! pot be decisive, for the rashmay not re semble the distinctive rash, being dark- er, pimplelike antT itchy, causing thfi patient td scratch and thua change 1 its appearance. In quinsy, however, the temperature is intermittent ; in soar- let fever, it is continuously high. -In another case, the disease is bo mild Hhat all the symptoms are3 slight. The pulse may be quickened Bomej mere may be redness of the skin in partsj but it may have had other causes; there may even be some rash, but not distinctive; 'there may br io sore throat, and no 1 1 fever. The child eats as usual, and may be as playful. At length, the cuticle peela 6ff, and all doubt is remoted. This form is the most dangerous of all others; for the doctor is not sent for, and the child beodmes a (Sehtre of ,bdn tagion, and ifl likely afterward to have kidney hdmplaint, ahd other serious dis poses. In a case of this kind, if the child is known to have been exposed, a doctor should f be called in, however slight the symptoms. In quite a different case, the disease expends its force on the throat, the nasal passage,, and ths larynit, or tipper part of the windpipe. There may be no rash to the last There may be no desqua mation peeling of the scarf skin. There may be in the back-month a false mem brane. The disease may be mistaken for diphtheria. And yet it communi cates to others hot diphtheria, bat sear let feVeh i How true is the xaedical saying that "diseases do not oome labelled." Youth's Companion fhe Boy Who Didn't Walt. ' A Western paper tells a good story of a young fellow who on the spur of the moment said a thing that will live in history. There was a sailboat upset out in the bay, and men were clinging to it in the hope of being rescued, and a crowd rushed to the dock to procure small boats to go to the relief of the wrecked crew. A young fellow jumped into a boat and was just about to pull off, when his father came upon the dock, and seeing his son about to undertake the perilous trip, the father said: "Herb., you better not go. Let some one take the boat who understands it." The boy looked at his father, then looked at themen struggling in the water. It was, for a moment, a question in the boy's mind what to do. It was a strug gle between -duty to the parent, and duty to the men who were liable to lose their lives if not rescued at once. To obey the father, come ashore and get out of the boat, and let others get in, would have taken valuable time, and would have subjected Herb." to com ments that he could not have stood. "Father, I fell in there onoe, myself, and did not want to wait for some one to learn boating before they came to my relief, and I am goinc.- and he went Charles Fbhxo Hofvjcan.
