MR. S1RGENpS TRANSFER.

Mr.. Ochiltree cannot be held responsible for
the transfer of the American Minister from
Berlin to st. Petersburg. Mr.. Sargents part in
the Lasker episode was perfunctOry and excited
as little resentment in Berlin as did the German
Minister'S action in offering to return the reso-
luton in Washington. If the incident was
the signal for a renewal of reprOaches and in
suits in the Government press of Berlin, it was
only because the folly of the State Department
In publishing his confidential communications
had created an intense prejudice against him.
Prince Bismarck, irritated by the action of the
House of Representatives, permitted the Gov
eminent journals to resume their assaults upon
the American Minister But logical connection
between these attacks and the transmission of
the Lasker resolution there was none. The
diplomatic slight put upon Minister Sargent
was unmistakable in the selection of the Ger
man Minister at Washington as the messenger
for the return of the resolution. He had in
Cured the displeasure of the German Court,
and this was convenient opportunity for en-
phasiZing the fact. His original offence had
been revealed through the carelessness or
ignorance of the State Department, and 1t uld-
mately rendered his withdrawal from Berlin a
diplomatic necessity.
The State Department has made such amends
as were in its power for subjecting Minister
Sargent to unmerited abuse and malignant crit
icism in foreign capital. 1t has done the right
thing in the right way and at the right moment.
The vacancy caused by Minister Hunts death
left at its disposal a post of the same diplomatic
rank as the German mission. Minister Sargent
has been transferred to st. Petersburg and ex
treated from his present embarrassing posi-
ton. His appointment has been managed so
adroitly that it carries with it the weight of
vote of confidence on the part Of the Senate.
The dispatch in which the transfer is announced
to him adequately expresses the Governments
confidence and appreciation of his services.
1t will enable him to retire from Berlin without
dishonor, and to assume the duties Of his new
post under favorable circumstances. The
transfer is made moreover, at moment when
he is no longer under fire and when he has
shared creditably in recent diplomatic civil
tiles. This lull in the hostilities enables our
Government to withdraw its representative
with dignity.

and that she cherisbes no slight grudge against
him. But the growth of the use OF the
pistol by women is marked by more or less OF
what for want Of a better term may be called
incidental shooting The HcOuntess" who
swingedn a poor messenger boy simply for
being impOrtunate in delivering message, fur
nished one example. Another was furnished
not long ago when one married lady took a
pistol out of her pocket and fired at another
married lady, because she thought her husband
was paying too much attention to the latter.
Still as a rule frivolous shooting is confined to
the male sex.
All this means change in the habits and
ideas of certain classes of women, which is
quite as real as any other change in this rapid
age. The Nihilist girl who is deadly shot
with her revolver, the crazed wretched woman
who kills the man who has wronged her, or
more often the man who has deserted her for
another woman, or who shoots herself in de-
spair, is quite AZ real as any other modern type.
1t is not an altogether agreeable develop
ment in the progress of the age. 1t is almost
impossible now to find jury which will enforce
the law against man who shoots another for
domestic wrong. What prospect is there that
juries will be any more likely to convict women
who avenge their own wrongs upon the persons
of despicable men This will hardly tend to
improve the administration Of justice, though 1t
may tend to make men of a certain class less
reckless and brutal. 1t does not always follow
either that the woman is In the right. case
was reported the other day where girl took
poison because her employer married, she de-
claring that she loved him. 1t was said in his
defence that their relations had never been
other than those Of employer and servant, and
that the girl had simply conceived romantic
affection for him. Whether this was true or
not, the case is easily suDpOsable. 1t is not
difficult to imagine, either, that in a frenzy of
jealousy a pistol might be substituted for
poison and murder for suicide.
Finally, it is a little dlsqueting to think OF
the woman with the pistol. Women are nerv-
ous excitable; and no one is so dangerous,
probably as an armed person with an uncertain
aim If women must shoot, it is to be hoped
they will take care to aim well and not bring
down the wrong man, as some of them have
done of late.

The Arabs had ceased to initiate European tao
tics and had begun to fight Ike Arabs-to lure
their foes into the deserts and to harass them
by continuous skirmishing. From campaign
of this sort the British commander has shrun
back in dismay.
Iamanieb, which marks the limit of the Brit
ish advance, IL barely twenty miles from
Suakim. The distance to Berber on the Nile is
two hundred miles through the Nubian desert.
An Indian army, fully equipped for the march
and well supplied with camels for the baggage
train, might cross the desert in eighteen days.
English troops would require a month and
would be Frustrated by the heat at nearly every
stage. The supply of water along the route
would be inadequate for large body of men,
and consequently wells would have to be dug.
The difficulties of march across that terrible
plain of burning sand under an equatorial sun
have rendered the British commander cautious.
The plan of opening the road to Berber, which
is itself two hundred miles north Of Khartoum,
has been abandoned. General Graham con-
tents himself with clearing the Tamanieb
Valley, burning an Arab village and ordering
return to the sea, pronouncing tho campaign to
be at an end. But Osman Digma is still in
revolt; and General Gordon is surrounded
with hostile tribes at KhartOum.

4 PECKLESS AND COSTLY BODY

ANY sensible person who will take the trouble
to wade through the official report of the pro-
ceedings of the Board of Aldermen, as pub
lished in The CITY Record, will become convinced
that the Board as now constituted Is worse
than useless. At the last meeting ten veto
messages were received from Mayor Edison.
That is about fair average for one meeting.
All of these veto messages had reference to
resolutions which either directed a useless
waste of public money or authorized objection
able street encumbrances.
One resolution directed that the upper portion
of Eighth-ave be paved with granite blocks,
and that crOsswalks be laid. In yetOing that
resolution the Mayor said that sewers and gas
mains had not yet been laid in that portion of
the city, and that there were only half a dozen
houses on the line of the street. There were
several vetoes of similar resolutions relating to
other streets 1t would certainly be a waste of
public money to pave such streets before the
necessary work beneath the surface had been
done. And yet the Aldermen generally over
ride the vetOes. They did so in two cases at
the last meeting, and as veto messages have to
lie over one meeting, the Board will doubtless
on Monday next proceed to override the ten
vetOeS last received.
All this work which the Aldermen direct to
be done at public expense, either benefits con-
sttuents with property to sell or furnishes
jobs for the favored contractors i'll the Depart
ment of Public Works. The Mayor regularly
vetoes the resolutions permitting street OBJ
structions. as did his two predecessors. But
the Aldermen as regularly pass such resolutions
over the vetoes-averaging several hundred
year. Ghe Board ought to be reformed in some
WAY or abolished.

nature, and. second, because they think the repu-
taton of liability to these shocks will keep away
population. But In truth the experience OF tho
past does not Justify serious alarm on tho subject
All the earthquakes that have occurred
since California became State have mot
caused thousandth part of tho damage In
VOWED In the foods of the Ohio and Mississippi
nav, the recent little local flood ut Roberts
Island on the Sacramento River, has been more
calamitous than all the earthquakes People have
been much moro frightened than hurt by the latter
and though when a shock comes everybody rushes
for the street. it is fact that no single life has yet
been lost in building by one of these earthquakes
All who have been killed have been struck In the
street by falling debris and the rational inference
would seem to be that the wisest course in an earth
quake is to stay indoors.
OF course people cannot help fearing that much
heavier shook may occur some day, anu no one can
deny the possibility. But there should be much CON-
fort in the reflection that hitherto the Pacific coast
has been very mildly shaken up,and the record may
we'll Justify belief that no catastrophe need be ap-
pretended There are moreover, but few tall and
massive buildings in San Francisco, and wooden
houses appear to be almost earthquake proof. In
1868 one of them, In Alameda County, was actually
turned over ON its side without being destroyed,
and without injuring the inmates seriously. On the
whole. therefore, San Francisco ought not to alarm
herself Oyermuoh because Of these telluric eocen-
tricities nor oan other cities justly congratulate
themselves at her expense for statistics show that
it is safer to live in earthquake belt than In
