FRANCE'S LAND OF PROMISE.

A Frenchman named Fayette, emi-
grated to Algeria in 1895 with a cap-
ital of about 84.000. in 1905. for sta-
tistical and illustrative purposes. the
colonial govermueul took stock of his
possessions. This is what he owned:
Two hundred and fifty acres of land

trees interspersed. value $11,000; 50
acres used as pasture. $200; 7 1-2 acres
ol’ land for hay, $600; 5 acres of
beans, $400; «i3 acres of vineyards.
310.200; 5 acres of almond trees.
$800: an orchard of :1 acres, growing
locusts. iigs. peaches and apricots.
$2,500: farm house and buildings. cat-
tle and an oil mill, $115,500; a total oi
$37,000.

For years it has been the custom
for the furniture used by the clerks

pass into their hands at the close of

furniture was not bought by the

comptroller authorized the purchase
of such furniture as was needed by the
clerk of the Senate and the clerks of
the ileum» at their cities in the (loud-
wln building and the bill was paid
directly. “trough the romplrollel"s de-
