The British Consul at Panama is investigat-
ing the massacre of fifty Jamaican laborers at
Culebra by Colombian troops. 1t appears
that the massacre was occasioned by the
watchmen at the camp of the Jamaicans mis-
understanding their orders. When the CO.
lombian troops came up the watchmen disre-
garded the officers claim to belong to the
regular Government, and opened fire with
revolvers. The soldiers answered with their
Remington s. The Jamaicans retired to their
quarters and there emptied their reyolvers on
the CoIombians, but this firing was so ineffec-
tive that no Colombian was killed The Co.
Iombian soldiers, reinforced by some of Aiz-
purus men armed with Winchester rifles,
and by some Carthagenians, kept up fire on
the barracks until nearly daylight, when they
broke open the door and massacred the in
mates to man. More than half the number
were shot or cut to pieces in their beds by the
maehetes of the Carthagenians. Two chill
dren were included in the massacre. The
victims were plundered of their money and
effects.

Breakfasting on Locusts.

WASHINGTON, June IA gentleman who
had an engagement with Prof Riley called at
his house this morning and found the ento-
mologist at late breakfast.
"Come right in here" said the Professor,
81 want an unprecedented opinion about a
little Natter And to the servant: bring
in some hot ones.
The visitor, despite the fact that he had
breakfasted, was induced to seat himself at
the table, ''just for the experiment, and was
served with spoonful of darE-brown objects
like very small fried oysters. He eyed them
suspiciously a moment, having discovered
beneath the crust of bread crumbs a lami-
mated back something like that of very small
shrimp.
.'What do you call it?
''The cicada. They ought to have been
cooked in --
aWhatl bugs p
''No! no! Not bugs, only the cicada-
mis- called the seventeen-year locust. Don't
be afraid of them. They are only the quin-
tescence of vegetable juices, and everything
in nature feeds upon them ravenously'"
Thereupon the host took one of the things,
bit it in two, munehed and swallowed it with
an appearance of relish. The guest shut his
ewes and attempted to bolt whole cicada.
The object crushed in his mouth and proved
to be little else than a delicate shell, but its
favor was found to be far from disagreeable.
'sAll its juices were absorbed in the batter,
said the Professor, explanatory.
Neither the savant nor his visitor was able
to liken the flavor to anything with which
they were familiar, but they were agreed in
the opinion that vulgar prejudice overcome
the cicada would be esteemed a rare tidbit-
rare certainly, since it required seventeen
years to ripen-and that it might take rank
with frogs legs, BIRDS nests, shaa roes, and
white bait.

began to break. They we're creamy white

''Do you cat grasshoppers? p
Certainly. | once ate nothing else for
two days, and | found them delicious when
properly cooked. That is only an expert
ment, of course, but my eating of my grass
hoppers had a practical object in view. The
insects had eaten nearly everything in large
region of country, and many families were on
the verge of starvation. People invited tc
partake always evinced aversion at first, but
preiudices having been overcome, the disl
hacame a favorite with those who essayed it. y

ton can do is to temporize with these
precious youths. 1t is to the credit OF the
Sacramento Board that in a similar case 1t
maintained its authority. The boys OF
San Francisco should not even be heard
until they submit. The primal consldera-
ton to giving their complaints any lnvestl-
CATION whatever, should be submission. No
man is fit to command who has not learned
to obey. There is altogether too much Of
the spirit of so-called independence among
the youths of the day. 1t is altogether
too self-assertive and too forward. The
evil has for some years been rapidly
growing one. 1t has been insiduously i'm
planted in the young breast, that tAe dig
nifty, rights, privileges and personal
opinions of lads r>ust be taken into
account in formulating the policy of
public institutions where they are housed,
and that their judgment must be
made factor in determining methods of
discipline. We are the friend of boys.
We love, admire and respect Il free-hearted,
high-Spirited boy There is nothing in
the world more inspiring than hopeful,
buoyant and courageous young manhood,
with clean hands and heart, pure thoughts
and high ambitions. 1t is the very
spring and hope of maturity, and the
guaranty of proud, patriotic and noble
citizenship. But there can be no hopeful,
buoyant, courageous young manhood
where self-conceit and assurance supplant
respect for authority; no clean hands and
heart where assertive impudence leads the
youth to rebel against those to whom he is
given in charge, since such rebellion has
its source in unworthy thoughts and leads
its victims into all kinds of humanity acts.
There are cases where the native spirit of
youth will rise indignant against wrong,
tyranny and i'll usage, but they are rare,
very rare. We venture to say that in not
one case in thousand where school boys
have rebelled has it been possible to justi
fly their course and preserve necessary dis
cipline. Character must stand behind
everything else in 4 young mans life, and
there can be no high character in the man
that grows out of insubordinate youth, for
the balance wheel of the whole machinery
of his career is self-restraint, self-discipline,
obedience to constituted authority and
duty doing, The youth of to-day must be
taught, in short, that while he is free
man and the citizen of the grandest ma
tional heritage upon the globe, he is to be a
law unto himself, and that he must not
only submit to discipline, but discipline
himself that he may be fitted to command
others. He must be thoroughly impreg-
mated with the truth which Shakespeare
put into his comment upon "the great
image of authority "a dogs obey'd in
office"

The Panama Situation.

Panama to the Tribune dated April 2Gth,
says: The American troops under com,
mand of McCalla. began to withdraw from
the city last night, under an agreement
with Aizpura and the French Consul. The
evacuation of the city destroys American
prestige here. There has been wild reioic-
ing among the insurgents and sympathizers
with them, and property-owners anticipate
serious trouble. The Americans are called
towards, and threats are heard on every
side to-day. The American troops with
drew to the Panama railway station.
General Aizpura has guaranteed to pre-
serve order in the city but the insurgents
have again begun the work of barricading
the streets

AFGHhNISTAN.

1t is conceded by the best advised mill
tary authorities that if Russia wishes to
| do so she can take Herat without much Of
a struggle, if she acts at once, and that if
war is declared that will be her first at
tempt. England certainly is not now so
situated as to prevent this act The Ameer
of Afghanistan does not forget the diff
culties that ensued among the tribes of
his country the last time a foreign force
was admitted to that country, and hence
his hesitancy about conserving to the pas
sage OF English troops through Afghan
istan. 1t is by no means certain that this
treacherous ruler is prepared to resist Rus
STA, if the latter should seize upon Herat.
Probably this accounts for the delay Mr..
Gladstone has made thus far, and his
anxiety to negotiate. With hostile Afghan
istan between the Caspian and India.
and Russia at Herat, with the NOM
inal opposition of the Ameer only,
England would be in sad plight with no
ground upon which to fight, and 10 power
to check an advance upon the Indian from
tier except at the expense of the animos-
ity Of the Ameer and his probable actual
resistance. The Ameer is by every natu-
raj consideration urged to prevent the en-
try of any foreign force into his country,
for once in there would be no assurance of
its retiracy. Above all things he does not
wish his territory to become the arena of
war between two foreign powers. He may
therefore prefer to make but Il weak re-
sistance to Russia in its seizure of Herat.
and even to conciliate the bear by a ces-
sion of territory rather than see him push
on southwark to India, if by that cession
his march can he stayed. England, how
ever, is misjudged by the Amer She has
no desire to destroy, but rather seeks to
insure the independently of Afehanistan,
