THE RAND CLAIMANT.

Melbourne, April 2 William Band, the claimant of the Band estates, has been remanded, and in the meantime* a more serious charge will be preferred against him. When arrested, he Was living in a large man sion which he had rented, on the strength of his representations, at a rental of £6 per week. He lived in great style, and kept a private secretary.

With regard to the question of extending the operations of the savings banks by making advances to farmers, he said the matter formed part of a very difficult problem, which he had been considering for some time.

STEAM COAL

Melbourne, April 3 The Coal Test Board has reported adversely on the proposal to use both brown and mixed brown and black Victorian coal lor locomotive purposes. The owners of brown coal reserves were adviied to develop the demand by patenting a special stove in which the capabilities of the coal would be turned to good account.

VILLAGE SETTLEMENTS

Meibouknb, April 3 The Age, commenting on the South Australian cooperative village settle inents scheme, says if any reliance is to be placed on the statement made by the Ministers who recently visited them, that colony's scheme is not un likely to solve the problem in time. There are, it says, hundreds of thousands of acres along the Murray suitable for intense culture, while the river at the very door provides a cheap and n ady highroad to the market. Final success, however, is by ho means yet assured, as the cruical test will come when Government support is withdrawn, but the outlook at present is decidedly encouraging. The paper ascribes the failure of the Victorian settlement to the unsuitable land chosen, and considers that the method of the promoters, not the principle itself, was at fault.

Produce Export

Met bourne, April 3 Th» Age, referring to the growth of the export of produce trade, says that during the last four years there has been a decrease of £724,000 in the ex port value of wool, wheat, and flour, against an increase of £888,000 in the value of frozen meat, baion, and dairy produce exported. Bitter experience Las taught the Victorian agricultura lists that there are other products which the world demands more than wool »od wheat, which they are pre eminently in a position to supply. The development of the Dew line has more than counteracted the decline of wheat which, until recently, was looked upon «3 the main support of the firmer. The figures point to the conclusion that the prospects of the farmers are far from hopeless. Wheat growing will h»ve to take a subsidiary place in the export trade of the coltuy in future.

THE RABBIT PEST

I Symjby, April 3 I The intercolonial conference, to I devise the best means of dealing with J the rabbit pest, opened yesterday. Mr ] Carruthers said the object of the I conference was to devise a scheme by concerted action for, reducing the numbers of the pest? in a cheap and wholesale manner, and by making the rabbits contribute to the cost of destruction by the sale of skins and carcases. Since the introduction of the Babbit Act in 1883, the New South Wales Government had spent considerably over a million sterling in destroying rabbits and protecting land holders from the ravages of the pest. The present Government had some seven million acres iv the Western and Central divisions on their hands, aitd this country had been abandoned chiefly on account of the lavagea of the rabbits^ The Conference resolved that its decisions should be on the basis of the State, in co-operation with occupiers of land, undertaking the destruction of the pest.

"KISS ME, JACK, AND LET ME GO."

Once, long ago, I was witness to a duel in California. The two men had been bosom friends, but had quarelled about (of course) a woman. Splendid fellows both—young, brainy, and ambitious. As they stood in a

clear space among the pine trees near Sacramento, pale as lilies, steady as rocks, weapons in hand waiting for the word, the rising sun shining athwart the line of vision, they presented a pictuie too often seen in 1856. The pistols cracked almost simultaneously. One man stood erect, evidently untouched ; the other fell upon his back and lay straight and still. Seconds, j surgeons, and spectators rushed to hia tside. He was 'all there,'mind as well as body. ' No, don't disturb me,' he said coolly to the doctor, ' I'm shot fatally and shall die in fire minutes. Call Jack and be quick.' Pistol still in hand, his antagonist came and bent over his erstwhile ahum. The excite ment among the crowd was intense; the dying man alone was calm. 'Jack, my darling old boy,' he Baid, ' forgive me and forgive lier Kiss me and let me go.' A minute more and he was dead, with Jack lying asross his body, crying like a biby. After I have told you another and very different story, I'll show wherein they teach the same lesson.

There is no tragedy in this one; never theless it is of wider human interest than the other. A woman had been ill more or less all her life. The details are common place enough, and yet they will appeal t3 millions who care nothing for the jealousies oi young men in love.

' At times, 1 she says, I suffered from pains at the back of the head, and a sense of weight, and felt tired and weary, yet it was not from work only. I had a strange feeling, too, of something hanging over me, as of some evil or danger that I could not explain or define.

'My appetite was variable ; sometimes I could eat anything and again I could not touch any food at all. Hut I was never laid it/p, as it were,' Please note the last sentence. It may seem like the weakest, but really is the strongest point in this lady's statement. We will tell you why in a moment.

She goes on : " Still 1 was often in misery, but got along fairly well until August, 1890, when I had a severe attack of rheumatism. First the great toe of my s right foot and the thumb of my right hand grew hot and pxin ful. i? f) er a time the trouble extended to my back and hips. I ciuld n> t straighten myself ; I was almost bent double. Month after month I was like this, getting little or

no sleep at night. Medical treatment proved of no benefit to me. In December, 1891, thepain almmt drove me mad. My face was swollen to nearly twice its natural size, and my eyes were so covered by the enlarged lids that I could scarcely see. There was a constant ringing in my etrs, and the doctors said I had erysipelas.

' For days and days I could not walk acrors the itoor, and for some time I was able to move about only by taking hold of the furniture o • other objects When all other means had been tried and had failed, Mother Seigel's Curative Syrup was recommended to me, A single bottle did me a deal of good, I kept on with it, and soon was stronger and in better heath than for forty years previously. I still take an occasional dose and continue in good health notwithstanding my age (48), and the ' change of life. 1 I tell everyone what the Syrup has done for me, and give you permission to publish what I have said. Yours truly (signed), (Mrs) Maky Jane Milnes, 18, Walker's Build ings, Brewery Line, Thornhill Lees, near Dewsbury, Yorkshire, October 12, 892.' Now for the lesson ef both these incidents; what is it ? This ; that it is not people in desperate extremities who suffer most. Pain is in proportion to the resistance to disease. Those who surrender, who are in despair, who give up, have present punishment large'y remitted. Dying persons are the most comfortable of all. Hopelessness And dissolution administer their own anodynes. Those who are not "fatd up, who are ill, and yet work and sh aggie, need pity and help. This lady was one, and to suoh Mother ieigel always proves a friend.

TIMOTHY. •/> I AM A BUYER OP FIRST-CLASS SAMPLES. ' F. FERRIWAN. k FOR nLE. QTRONG SHEEP NETTING, WITH CENTRE STRAND. I V ■ •. '■ f. ferriatan; The Portable Water Barrow. The latest number! of the -Nineteenth Century has an interesting artic? upon the dread scourge of DIPHTHERIA, and, in introducing the subject, tb, writer remarks, that the latest epidemics in,Mussia.swept away nearly all tl children in some villages ; and, in 'Prussia, no leds.'than one sixth to one-foscl part of all children dying in the age of from one to live years succumbed i Diphtheria, and the wine proportion prevailed in Western Europe as wd| Keen interest is being taken in the expetinients,of the Freiich Doctors, Roti and Tebsen ; but Diphtheria, like Anthrax, Cholera, Typhoid, Malaria and otbi kindred complaints is due to an infection of the body by special bacteria, can* by the effluvia, rising from drains, back yards and premises generally into an upon which dairy and: kitchen slops have been thrown. Without an infection b Bacteria or the poison* which they secrete, there is nodiphtheria. Thk PobtaM Wash Barrow is just the one thing 'indispensable in the direction of ptrfp sanitary arrangements. By its use, a two-fold benefit is derived. Tne fe«f and diphtheria breeding agencies are removed, and what U otherwise a cour; of terror becomes an absolute gain, by conveying the wash to the pig troug or to the garden. The Portable Barrows can be put to various kinds i use, and they are so admirably constructed that, with them, a child can t work which otherwise requires the strength of mature years. The cost comparatively small. Possession of one becomes an absolute means t sweetness, comfort and profit.
