APPLICATIONS or THE MONROE IDE1.
Great Britain has always affected to despise
the Monroe Doctrine as an American crotchct.
II is now startled by the revelation that Its own
colonies in the South Seas have appropriated
the idea and audaciOusly proclaimed 1t as the
sum and substance of their diplomacy The
Queensland authorities undertook III March to
annex Papua or New-Guinea, on the pretc1t OF
French mcnaces. Their action was Ovcrruled
nv the Colonial Office on the ground that the
burdens of Empire could not be increased
without the consent Of the Home Government.
This reputation of the policy of powerful
colony caused great dissatisfaction, not only III
Queensland, but in the adjacent territories OF
the Crown. AS the outcome OF this tecilng
conference of AustTalasian legislative delegates
has recently been held at Sydney in New South
Wales. Every British colony in the South Seas
was represented and powerful impulse was
given to the movement in favor of cOnfedera-
tion. At the same time a series OF resolutions
debated in secret session and unanimously
nassed. committed each colonial Government
uneouiyocally to the Australasan Monroe
Doctrine.
These resolutions not only favor the i'm
mediate annexation of New-Guinea and the
adjacent islands, but protest in the name OF the
English speaking cOlonists against the acqulsl-
ton of dominion in the Pacific south OF the
EQUATOR by any foreign Power as highly
detrimental to the safety and well-being of the
British possessions. The Conference also
suggests measures for obtaining control of the
New Hebrides in the interest of Australasia,
demonstrates against the declared intention
of the French Government to transport relapsed
criminals to the South Pacific groups and invites
negotiations for the abolition of penal settle
ments such as Caledonia. The resolu-
hons embody the idea that the interests OF the
British colonists are paramount IN the Paclilc
south of the Equator and that Fren chmen,
Germans and other foreign cOlOnists shall not
he allowed to trespass on forbidden ground.
The colonial Governments in effect give notice
10 the world that the complications OF European
or American diplomacy do not concern them,
but on the other hand they will not tolerate any
interference on the part OF foreigners IN the
affairs of their own quarter of the globe. 1helr
interests in Australasia may not be exclusive,
but they are paramount, and the logic of these
remarkable resolutions is that this fact must be
recognized by all foreign Governments. The
British people are thus brought face to face
with direct application of the Monroe Doc
trine. The American crotchet has become the
avowed policy of group of powerful British
colonies, which are on the verge of confedera-
ton and are destined to become great indus
trial Empire, populous and rich, composed of
sovereign states.
The Monroe Doctrine has always been charac-
terized in England as a special deliverance of
Yankee assumption, unreasonable on abstract
principles and unsupported by the canons of
international law. Possibly it will seem more

When one person hOrsewhips another, it is
rare indeed that both are entirely satisfied with
the transaction. Yet this is the remarkable
outcome of the encounter between Mile. Sarah
Bernhardt and Mile. Marie Colombier. Sarah,
who did the whipping, Is in q state of great
elation over her exploit, and tells a Herald
correspondent so that it may at once be trans
mtted to her dear Americans, that the amount
of furniture smashing she did as incidental to
the whipping was enormous" Marie, too, is
entirely satisfied She will replace her broken

pleasure in the thought that lit will increase
the number of editions" which she will sell of
her book-the cause of all the trouble.
1t ought to be possible to preserve to mankind
the exact truth about this historical encounter,
and vet at the very outset serious discrepancies
appear in the versions given by the two princi-
nails. Sarah says she was armed only with a
borsewhip and cat-o'-nine tails. l only used
the horsewhip "-showing moderation and gem
teel self-restraint, for which she ought to have
great credit. Marie says, on the other hand, in
her account, that her assailant chad poniard
in her left hand and riding-whip In her right.
She rushed into the apartment crying, Nherc
is she, that we may kill her p" The friend who
accompanied her was also "armed with large
knife.n which must have made the scene more
melodramatic than was quito comfortable for
Marie. Sarah says she dashed Marie with her
whip, and when the latter fell into the arms OF
NJ. soudan, she horsewhipped him, too. We
search Marie's narrative in vain for any such
Ia, hap

They rather expected to astonish him with their

all his hosts to dine with him in Boston. few
months later he got note saying they were coming,
TO accept his invitation. Well, he just hustled
around. He had big room at the fort handsomely
decorated with flags and flowers, and hired loads Of
the finest silver and china and glass in Boston.
Then he gave famous caterer carte blanche to do
the rest. Well, the dinner far outshone the the
English officers had given him, and they could not
conceal their surprise and admiration. Finally one
of them turned to Magruder and said: Beg pardon,

officers get very large salaries. Now, may just
