DR.. Samuel -. Ward, the Presidents
camping companion in the Adirondacks,
replies to an enquiry from the editor of the
Forest ujtd stream, regarding the alleged
use of deer hounds contrary to the law of
the State Of New York, as follows: II
have acknowledged the receipt of yours
of the 10Th inst, and while 1t seems rather
absurd to he called upon to reply to news
paper gossip, | have to say, in answer to
your inquiry, that during the past month
no dogs were put out after deer by the di-
rection of either the President or myself.
Very truly yours, SAMUEL Il. WARD" If
the public is satisfied with an evasive re-
ply like this, it must be very credulous.
Surprising the President or Dr. Ward did
not direct that the dogs be put out after
deer, that would not prevent their suffer
ing the guides to do it, or forbid their oc-
cupying the best runways when the music
of the chase came floating across the still
air of the wilderness. DR.. Ward may be Il
good shot with II rife, but he has come
pretty wide of the mark with his pen.

The government has taken further
measures for enforcing the quarantine
against small pOX, by issuing instructions
to the commanding officers of revenue
steamers at the principal Atlantic sea
board ports and ports on the great lakes,
TO speak all vessels coming from infected
Canadian ports and to prevent the land
ing of all in the United States, that do not
show clean bills of health.

Prof. Henry of Harvard says that he was
discussing Greek with friend at dinner
in a Saratoga hotel, when their negro
waiter ventured to give quotation that
they could not recall correctly. The ser
Vltor was one of party of Howard Uni

His fortunate remark caught the fancy
OF one of the hearers, who presented $500
to him for the completion of his collegiate
education.

1t is stated that only 80 of the 157
claims which were certified by the com
mssioners OF the New Orleans exposition,
to be paid out of the last 1925, 600 appro-
priated by Congress, remain unpaid, The
remaining thirty claims will be settled
within few days, and there will be u
sufficient amount left of the S355 900 to
liquidate all disputed claims against the
exposition outside of the State Of Louis
lana, but creditors will have to go to Con
gress to secure authority for their pay
ment None Of these claims are claims
for premiums. There will be nothing out
of which to pay those, in any case.

The Canadian government has done
wisely in the case of Riel. 1t has respit-
ed him and referred the question of his
execution TO England If the provincial
government had executed Riel it would
have had the whole French Canadian pop
ulation about its ears. If the govern
ment had pardoned Rel, it would have
been censured both in Canada and Eng
land The only prudent course was the
one chosen: and the Canadian authOri-
ties are undoubtedly rejoiced that there
are other shoulders, to take the RESPONSE
bility.

always on the lookout for something new
under the sun, and their instincts in the
matter of news often bias their judgment
in respect to advice. We have a suspicion
that our editorial brethren are not so
much interested in the welfare of Nassar
college as they are in II certain experiment
which may prove very interesting TO the
reading public.

Eastern Roumelia has reyolted from
the Turkish rule. The popUlrce of Philip
popolis, the capital, rose in rebellion Fri
day, seized the encouragement, deposed
the government, proclaimed union with
Bulgaria aud formed provisional gov
ernment, all without strife or bloodshed.
Out of Il population of $4,000 in Eastern
Roumelia, nearly 100000 are described as
Bulgarians, while the resident Turkish
population is less than 3OO,OOO. This re-
volt doubtless has been long in prepare
ton The signal for the rising came from
Bulgaria and is said to have been inspired
by Russia. What Turkey Will do about
it, remains to be seen

1t is not long since Mr.. Cleveland
thought that the editing of a political
newspaper constituted sufficient evidence
of offensive partisanship, in Republican.
But now Mr. Dorsheimer, his appointee
as United States district attorney in New
York, issues over his own signature the
prospectus of his new administration or
gan in that city, and it is all right.
The Secretary of the Treasury has re
ceived request from the governor of
Massachusetts for the appointment of
medical inspectors on the Canadian Dor
der, east of lake Ontario, to inspect pas
sengers arriving by rail through Northern
Vermont, and the matter is now under
consideration with view of complying
with the request.

1t seems that Mr.. Randall did not con-
tribute the article on the tariff, to the
Diric Mdgdzinc, in the shape in which It
appeared. In response to a request for II
contribution on the tariff question, the eX-
speaker, with true labor-saving instinct,
sent copy of one of his speeches, with
passages marked, to the editor of the mag
azine, and the latter 'arranged' the arti-
Gle. II makes very little difference, to the
public whether the article was manuscript
or reprint, if the editor did his work con
scientiously, but it would have been bet
ter for the editor to have explained his

and the sooner the Legislature provides one
the better Richmond State
Our metropolitan contemporary shows
that it appreciates the first need Of Vir-
g1nla-good roads. As the utterancGe of
paper of the standing Of the State will
have great weight with the Farmers con-
vention to assemble in Richmond April
18th, we trust that that able journal will
about that time editorially enforce the
necessity of good State road law, IN their
attention. Virginia has waited now twen-
~ years since she has been practically
open to immigration, for good roads to form
an attraction for it, but they have not
been made nor will they be by the t,oun-
ties. The roads in Virginia are alot as
good today as they were in 1870. Not
that nothing has been done; but the lit
tie that has been pnt on them has been
putin such paltry, dribbling quaint ties
littles money, little rock, little work that
it has all been swallowed up in the mud.
a State road lac would be bed rock I'M
der our roads, stopping the financial per-
collation. and every dollar put in them
would show for iself.
