THERE is nothing more remarkable in
he failure to discover The perpetrators Of
robbery Of Mr. Stewart's grave than in the
equally singular failure Of the police to
detect the robbers Of the Manhattan Saw
ipgs Bank. Both events were equally un>
expected. In one. case no one could have
anticipated such an event as within the
bonds Of probability, and in the other the
criminals departed after their thief, with
out dropping their masks or leaving the
slightest elew to their Identification. The
bank robbers are doubtless exempt from
suspicion on account Of their social re.
spectability. and the vault robbers may
have had similar cause for their exemp,
tion.

TIE commander Of British steamship
that was recently in New York-one of
class that takes rowing commissions to sail
anywhere, provided there be The prospect
of cargo and q market, and which was
"up" for return cargo to the Bio de Ja-
neiro, from which port she had brought
cofee-does not seem hopeful Of the rros-
poets of the Roach line of s'eamera, for
which subsidy was demanded at the re-.
cent session Of Congress. He said that the
commel cial requirement Of the time was
not only iron steamships. but steamships
50 built as to economize space and fuel a.
time. The line to which his steamer be
lougsd fulfilled all these requisites, and
would make profit b. carrying coffee for
90 to 70 Gems per bag. As to the Roach
line he said that he gave it two years 10
live, and the reason be assigned was that
"tbe expense Of one Of their boats is twice
| that Of one Of ours, while It does not carry
twice as nsch cargo by a good deal They
cannot keep up against the strain pon
their resources" IN other words, these
British built steamers have been constructed
with view TO an eyistepce independent
| Of subsidy, a consideration which the Roach
line seems to have overlooked. II is to b.
hoped, however, that ths fact is otherwise
and that an American line will be as able
10 live independently as an English line.

IN the French Senate a few DAYS ago
the bill for the destruction of noxious
insects and the preservation of birds was
brought forward for second reading.
DIR. Iestelin, of Lille, man of wit and
much common sense opposed the bill
IA useless and illusory concerning in
scots, and vexatious for birds. He
denied the danger of ravages from in
sects, relying on the fact that since 1889
the fruits of the earth have steadily in
creased. He quoted the opinion of n
learned Englishman, Sir John Lubbock.
who calculated that of 81 500 insects
only 800 are n9xious, and many were
very useful. What were the poor birds
to do if their principal provender, in
sects, were destroyed? Admitting the
possibility of destroying bad insects,
birds must live upon the good. Birds
were Just as mischevious as insects.
The ordinary routine of dining seems
IN Sweden TO be in wild confusion.
soup sometimes ends instead of begin
ming the dinner Iced soups and cold
hsh are dainties TO the Scandinavian
palate. Much of the soup is nauseously
sweet, Favored with cherries, raspberries
and gooseberries, often with macaroon
cakes and spikes of cinnamon floating
wildly about in it. This is eaten as a
sort of dessert, and is cold and often
beautifully clear. If Heine bitterly re-
vlied the English for bringing vegetables

or strange dishes of berry Juice boiled
down and mixed with farina, sugar and
almonds, then cooled, nodded, and
turned out into basins of cream, to be
eaten with crushed sugar and wine appear
at the end of dinner. The Swedes
share with the Danes and Arabs a pas
senate fondness for sweetmeats. Every
thing is slightly sweet; even green peas
are sugared, as well as the innumerable
tea and coffee cakes, so that long before

Buying q Dog.

A correspondent writes was quietly
sitting by the stove in lager-beer saloon
in Philadelphia one cold night in the
fall of $50, the only other occupants at
the tine being four young men-ap-
parently students - playing euchre
They were busily engaged playing, and
| busily engaged smoking and warming
myself, when the door opened, letting
in gust of wind, lot of snow, and,
with the two, sad, shabby-looking man
with one OF the most miserable looking
dogs at his heels that it has ever been
my misfortune 10 look at. He walked
up TO the bar and took drink of
whisky, after which he went TO the
table, where there was a large bowl of
hot clam chowder- given gratis TO who
ever purchased drink" Having pro-
cured a soup-plateful Of the nourish-
ment, he sat down directly opposite him.
When the man came across piece of
gristle, he threw it 10 the dog, who at
1t ravenously. The four young men
seemed suddenly 10 relinquish their
cards and be more deeply interested in
the man and dog. One bet another
twenty dollars that the man would not
sell the dog, on which the young man
challenged. at once took the bet, both
stalking the money in the hands Of their
two friends. The one challenged there
upon accOsted the man, "Say, cap'n, do
you want to sell that dogP' The man
just looked at his interrogation. and that
was all. Again he was asked until the
party asking offered TO give him five dol
lars for 1t; at which offer the man said,
" Don't poster me about the dorg-I
don't want TO sell" which answer Gre
ated burst of laughter among the young
men, myself included. Exasperated at
last, the young man bid the stranger ten
dollars for the dog, which he inmedi-
ately took. handing over the dog in ex-
change, and buttoning up his coat and
walking coolly to the door, when it
struck the purchaser that he would like
to know the dogs name, which he asked
the man in a loud voice as the latter
was near the place of exit. The man
turned round and gazed at them all with
benign look of pity. He said TO them,
Dew yew wish tew know that purp's
name" They simultaneously answered
In the affirmative. He said, DWELL,
that's good, considering never saw
him till he followed me in here"
