A Teacher in Springfield (Massa-
chusetts) public school, says the Repab-
fscan, was recently the victim ofa poetic
joke by Q poet--an eight year old Irish
student--which runs thus s
"A little mouse ran up the stairs,
To hear Miss Blodge.t, soy her prayers.v .
On being threatened with severe whip
ping if not able to produce another stanza
within five minutes, he again sung out:
"Here I stand before Miss Blodgctt,
She's goin' to strike, and Tmgoin' to dod 20
it,"
After which the ''poet" was allowed to
escape unpunishcd, and repaired trium
phantly no his seat, followed by pcals of
laughter from the whole school, the
teacher inclnded, as reward for his
genius. This recalls the story of Watts,
the hymniss, who, when his father threat

"Oh, fathor, on me pity take,
And will no more verses make"

great prejudice of the former. England

very small one. Heavy taxes and large
duties were referred to, against COM

pensive government, in marked contrast

required to apologize for the wreck of

The TERNi "LoYAL. In II recent
debate in the United States Congress, the
following point WAS made. 1t is we'll
taken:
MIR. Eldridge declained against the
word loyal as word he despised and
hated. 1t always reminded him of a
definition Of it given by contractor
during the war, when pressed to explain
what he meant by saying he felt loyal
lie said he felt us ifhe wanted 70 steal
something or somebody. For himself he
was patriotic, not loyal. The word did
not belong to this country; it only be-

CUBA-There is surmise current
that the Administration contemplates
action of q most extraordinary character
upon the Cuban question, it being the
recognition of the volunteer organization
now holding high carnival in the prin-
cipal cities of the island as the de facto
Government, and the accordance of
belligerency thereto. This action is
supposed to be part of the policy of Mr..
Fish in his diplomacy with Madrid.
