A report from Vienna states that Count

will also attend the emperors' meeting. Rus

therefore it is considered necessary that the
leaders of the foreign policy of Germany and
Austria attend the emper rors meeting, which
promises to result in further strengthening
the alliance between those two governments.

a Changing River.

~That Missouri river is a great stream, aint
it?'' was the announcement and question ex-
pressed by man on the Northern Pacific
through train. He spoke to party of for
eigners, who, with him, occupied the car.
They were on their way up into Montana on a
hunting trip. The speaker was an exper-
fenced travelling man.
"Hi ave card habout hit, you know" said
one of his auditors
Peculiar river" continued the drummer,
without noticing the remark of his foreign
fellow-traveler. II don't suppose you know
it. but Omaha, Nebraska and Council Bluffs,
Iowa, are supposed to be directly across the
river from each other, and yet they are four
miles apart. You will say that there is moth
ing remarkable about that but there is, just
the same
THE river, of course, doesn't extend over
that four miles by any means: it is not more
than half a mile wide, and yet it shifts around
so that each of the towns has the benefit of
being on the river bank. For instance, if we
should go down there now, we would find the
river washing the bluff close to the city of
Omaha, and about three and one-half miles
from Council Bluffs. Next summer if we
went back we should find the river flowing
right along close to the city of Council Bluffs
and its western bank over three miles from
maha.''
Remarkable" chorused the foreign aud
itor.
"How do I explain it? Easy enough. You
see the river is SO darn swift that it keeps
washing its banks all the time, and thus
changes its current. Between those two
places there is a kind of marsh. and the
change is made without any great difficulty.
As soon as it strikes the bluffs on either side
it turns round and goes back. Oh, you GER
tainly must visit Omaha before you go back.
That trick of the river is one OF the
greatest curiosities in America, second
only to Niagara Falls. From Omaha? Yes,

A MEXICAN WAR.

According to the late Mr.. ZACH CHAND-
LER's philosophy, little blood-letting now
and then is good thing for the national
health. If this be true, our government
can afford to have little spat with Mexico.
Some one has said that a war every twenty
years was essential to a nations prosperity.
If our prosperity is on the wane because Of
not having a tilt with some neghboring
government there is all the more reason
why the United States should protect its
dignity in this Mexican matter. 1t is very
true there is not much of a provocation for
war. A worthless sort of fellow who
was attempting to run two weekly news
papers, both as worthless as himself, one
on the American side of the line and the
other over the Mexican border, got into
trouble with a brother editor and attempted
to shield his blackguardism under
the American flag. The first time
his brother editor caught him on the
Mexican side of the line he proceeded to
dish out Mexican justice in regular MeXi-
can style, and the blackguard American
editor was hung up. 1t affords mighty
light foundation on which to construct
provocation for declaring war against Mex
leo. But great wars have been fought with
less excuse, and what has been done can
always be done again. Besides all this,
Mexico deserves a good fiogging for many
past Offenses. and as it suits the United
States better at this time than any other
nation to administer the fogging, why of
course the United States will have to I'M
dertake the job. And since we come to
think about it, Mexico has never apologized
to anybody for shooting MAMMALIAN. 1t
is true the United States had no particular
interest In MAMMALIAN fate, and it has
been a long time ago anyway since the deed
was done. And then, too old SANTA
ANNA never did own up that he was
whipped at Buena Vista. He always
claimed that it was only retrograde move
ment of the Mexican forces. There are
great many other old scores that could be
raked up in an emergency. But the fact
that Mexico is fine country which would
be valuable acquisition to the United
States is of itself sufficient insult to our
national pride to provoke war of con-
quest. Mexico needs better government
and the United States is just the country to
give it to her. Now let Gov. IRELAND
proceed with the overture. The whole
United States is as mad as a hornet and
nothing less than the conquest of Mexico
will appeaSe our national wrath.

A COURAGEOUS WOMAN.

During these days of monument building
and raising contributions for testimonial
funds there is an old woman down in the
Ohio valley who deserves to be remem-
bered. Her home is at Long Bottom, on
the Ohio river. and her patronymic is STAR
KEY. She is quite an elderly old body,
who lives all to herself. She is noted in
her locality for her thriftiness, and there
was neighborhood legend that this ex-
cellent old woman had several thousand
dollars stored away in her cottage. the saw
ings of good many years of hard work and
economy. The rumor turned out to be
true. Mrs. STARKEY had accumulated
more than IS. 900 in good, solid hard cash,
which she kept locked up in her bureau
drawer. Two noted burglars, in their
wanderings to and fro through the earth,
chanced to pass that way, and they heard
the story of Mrs. STARKEY's accumulated
wealth. 1t at once occurred to them that a
softer snap never fell in robbers way.
Here was an old woman living all by her
self in country home and S., 900 in her pos
session. 1t seemed to them that all two
stalwart robbers had to do was to make
their appearance in the widows cottage and
demand the money and it would be handed
over to them. 1t was such an easy job to
get it that they couldn't wait for night to
cover their crime. They went in daylight.
Mrs. STARKEY didn't faint or scream when
she saw the two robbers standing in her
doorway with cooked revolvers in their
hands and demanding her hidden wealth.
Like sensible woman she arose without
any trepidation and explaining to the rob-
Der visitors that she was conscious they had
the drop on her, their demand would be ac-
ceded to. She opened the drawer and put
her hand in. But instead of purse of
gold she drew forth a seven-barreled 81
calibre gun and opened fire on the intruders.
One dropped in his tracks, while the other
with couple of pistol balls in his leg fed
TO the timber. Mrs. STARKEY was not a
soldier to quit the fray while the
battle was but half finished. She was the
owner of mastiff that was good on a
fresh trail, and starting out with her dog in
pursuit of the escaped robber, she soon had
him up tree. He was captured, brought
back and lodged in the county Jail, and
his comrades body committed to the pot
ter's field. A brave woman is just as de-
serving of a monument as brave man.
Although an humble woman and unknown
to fame. Mrs. STARKEY is more deserving of
a monument than some men whose names
are perpetuated in bronze and stone.

BELFAST, Aug. 1.-Serious rioting took
place here last night and to-day. A band

OF Protestant Sunday school children who
were returning from an excursion.
The crowd accompanying the band hooted
at number OF Catholics who were assem-
bled on Carrick Hill. The latter replied
with stones, and the others retaiated.
Wild rumors spread throughout the city,
and large mob Of Orangemen
soon gathered. The police tried to
disperse the crowd. but their efforts were
useless and the Orangemen continued to
Increase. The mob attacked and wrecked
large tavern owned by Catholic
named McKenna. The police frequently
charged the mob. but were repulsed
with stones. The rioters then wrecked a
number OF houses believed to be Catholic.
They uprooted the pavement and fired vol
leyS OF stones at the police.
The latter were finally ordered to
fire buckshot, and the command was
promptly obeyed. A boy named Knox,
who was going OH an errand. was shot dead
Many persons were wounded, some of
them seriously. The rioters were ap-
parently awed by the appearance
of the military and soon dispersed.
to their homes. The fighting was renewed.
however, to-day and the police were again
compelled to fire upon the mob. Many of
the rioters were wounded. Subsequently
the mob wrecked several buildings, and
the military were again summoned, many
policemen were badly cut by the missiles
thrown at them by the rioters. Forty six
arrests have been made. The police and

ON THE WRONG TRACK

The anarchists now OH trial in Chicago,
through their counsel, present most singu-
lar line of defence. According to Mr.
SoLoMoN's address on Saturday, they will
'eSt their defence on the broad principle
hat they are humanitarians and not crimi-
aals. Mr.. SOLOMON says these anarchists
have not advocated assassination on ac-
,ount of personal feelings against any man,
sut all their efforts have been put forth
With the single object in view of bettering
the condition of their fellow men. If Mr.
5oLoMoN expects to rest the defence on
lny such ground as that he will send his
elients to the gallows as sure as shot. 1t is
hardly possible that twelve intelligent
American citizens can be brought together

why Capt. Howell Surrendered.

Sam Small nthe Chicago Herald.
When things were hot around A tlanta
Capt. Evan Howell, managing editor OF the
Atlanta Constitution, received an order to
reconnoitre across Chattahooche river and
ascertain if the Federal troops had retired.
The night was black as ink. He read the
order to his men, but was surprised to find
them all disqualified Tor the risky Job. One
couldn't swim, another had the rheuma-
tisn, still another always had cramps in
the water. and so it went down the whole
line. But the order had to be obeyed. So
Howell plunged into the river and made for
the other side. He was remarkably good
swimmer and felt sure he was making no
noise, yet he became so frightened that
each stroke seemed to him to arouse the
whole Federal camp. Now and then a
Hghtning-bug appeared, and. confident that
1t was Yankee musket. he ducked under
water. By and by he got so near shore
that he could wade. and he was creeping
along as cautiously as possible his teeth
chattering with fear. when of a sudden he
struck against an old tree that had fallen
into the river. Just then a huge bull frog
gave sonorous blurt and jumped into tht
river Unable to restrain his self-posses.
sion longer Howell threw up both hands
and yelled in terror: Il surrender! [ sur
render!" When he finally reached the
camp not Yankee could be seen, but
smouldering fire gave evidence that they
had recently decamped.
