SECRETARY FRELINGHUYsEN Is q
good member of the Dutch Reformed
church but a very poor secretary of
state. He never opens his mouth
without putting his foot In 1t and he
rarely touches a diplomatic question
without getting the state department
into q muddls from which 1t Is only
finally extrlcated at the expense of the
nations dignity. First we had the
Peace Congress fasco, then came
the ridiculous blunder In relation to
the Clayton-Bu lwer treaty, and
now comes q complication about
the crossing of the Mexican boundary
by our troops In pursuit of hostile
Apaches. After General Crooks
plans were completed and his exEe-
dition was under way, Mr.. Freling-
huysen felt called upon to ask the
Mexican minister st Washington
whether his government would OBJ
ject to the pursuit of the msrauders
by our troops on Mexican soil. The
date of this inquiry has not been an
nounced, but the Mexican ministers
reply was received by the secretary on
Saturday last, several days after Gen
eral Crooks departure from Wilcox,
and 1t was to the effect that General
Crook must not pursue the Indians In
Mexico without getting the consent
of the Mexican senate. The secretary
Is said to have been greatly surprised
by this reply, and he at ones sent dis
patches to General Crook directing
him to remain on this side of thu
boundary. These dispatches are II
the hands of a courier, who hopes t.
reach the advancing troops before
they shall have passed the border

Electric Light Service.

London Standard.
Toe electric light has been applied
of late In various cases, where the eff.
feet hae been singularly picturesque.
Thus, during a congress of Greek med.
icsl men at Athens last year, several
electric lamps were placed at elevated
points about the Acropolis, and the
aspect Of the ruins SO lit up Is said to
have been very striking. The Com
pany of Steam Navigation on the
Rhine and the Lake of Constance
started last year a night service OF
steamers supplied with Burgin electr .
lamps, to illuminate the beautiful
banks of the river. The steamer left
Schs ffhsusen at fall of night, and
sailed to B'e,lngen, and passengers
were enabled to Ell JOY the tcenety
in1 those novel circumstances. Fur.
Their, the falls of the r hine have been

Star Routes and surveys.

san FRANCISCO Chronicle.
As affording q short and easy method
of becoming rich, q Especial deposit"
contract for government surveying Ia
vastly superior to q contract for carry.
Ing malls over q star route. The
points of resemblance furnish q ready
means of comparing the merits of the
two plans, and the points of difference
are nearly all In favor Of the
former. In both cases there Is a con.
tract with the government for the
performance of remote service. In
mail carrying there Ia at least the pre-
sumption of q competition which will
keep down the rates proposed by bid
ders. In surveying there can be no
competition, the rates being fixed by
law. In mail .carrying, expedition and
increase of service Is procured by the
medium Of long petit ns of interest
ed ci liens, as we'll as by the requests
of men of IL fluence. The surveyor,
on the other hand, has merely to choose
the scene Of his alleged operations
In some dreary desert, or In the
rocky Businesses of inaccessible
mountains, and then order q Kearney
street broker to attend to the petit
lions. A short list of thirty names
will procure o contract, under which
the surveyor may demand payment at
the rate Of between $50 and 500 per
day for every day of a whole year,
Sundays excepted. Expedition In
this case may be defined as the doing
| of q years work In three months and
then going home. Increase of SER
vice consists in performing a part
of the splendid duty and re.
ceivlng pay for the whole. The
Intervention of congressman and men
of influence between the contractor
and the government Is unnecessary,
| for q mysterious "bureau" is omnipo-
tent to secure official favor. If the
contract surveyor Is In danger of suf.
feriug from the results of his peculiar
Ideas Of expedition and increase of
service, the same frlendly "bureau'
stands like a rock bet ween himself and
I official wrath. In surveying there are
no troublesome people on hand to
count the number of miles run, as the
trips of a stage coach may be counted,
nor to watch the accuracy of the sur.
veyor's closures when he arrives at
old corners, as the arrival of q stage at
a station on schedule time may be
noted, but the contractor Is his own
supervisor and referee. He does not
have to adjust himself to the ideas Of
a lot of postmasters stationed at diff
ferent points over his work, but he Ia
paid according to his own report, and
not otherwise. No one stands in his
way from the time the contract Is I'M.
dertsksn until final payment Is made.
Considering the facilities enjoyed
and the immense resources at com
mand, 1t Is not surprising that the pub
lie surveys have attained such proper
tions, compared with former years.
Nor Is 1t surprising that that notable
convention of Survey ors. G General pro
posed, though bashfully, a removal OF
all limits to expenditures for surveys.
The final advantage which the survey
iug method has over the stsr.route
method is that 1t has not yet received
any official check.

The state of Illinois has just
brought an important suit against the
general government which will! turn
upon the question whether "bounty
land" Is part of a soldiers pay. The

a stipulation that 1t should be given
5 per cent. Of all receipts from sales

THE New York Sun goes into n.y.
sterics whenever 1t counts up the
young lieutenants and captains who
are on ''soft service" In the east,
away from their regiments. If the
soft service" brigade only consisted
of the young lieutenants and captains,
1t would be of very small dimensions.
No army In the world exacts the same
hardship from Its line officers as the
United States. Instead of being on
''soft service" duty the great majority
of young %lieutenants and captains
are forced to vegetate In
times of peace in iickety
frontier posts thousands of miles from
their homes with the smallest possible
hope of a transfer TO civilization until
they become old enough to retire. To
complete the injustice, staff positions
are thrown open to civilians instead of
being made the rewards for hard ser.
vice In the line. There are doubtless
a few young lieutenants and captains
who have served too long away from
their regiments who oughtto give place
to others, especially where they are
attached as aides to the staff of COM
handing generals. But the soft ser
vice brigade Is principally recruited
from high rank staff officers who
groan over three hours work a day as
excessive, and hasten their retirement
for disability by poisoning themselves
with cocktails and champagne while
off duty. There is mighty little "soft
service" In the line on the frontier
and a great deal OF patient and poorly
requited hard work.
