Not only is the Paris coachman not
handsome as class, but as rule he is
impolite. To say he is not handsome con
yeys but faint idea of his lack Of personal
charms. He is almost always ugly, and Is
much more than polite, for unless the
pOur-bOire is in question, he is coarse and
rude, The Paris authorities do not take
into account the safety or convenience OF
pedestrians. Only those who are able to
ride in carriages seemed to be cared for,
and the greatest effort is made that they
shall reach their destinations in the brief
est possible time.
The cab driver takes advantage OF this
impunity to display the malignity of his
disposition He urges his horse to the top
of his speed when approaching crowded
crossing. or when he sees a lonely pedes-
trian endcavoring to pick his way across a
street among threatened dangers. IL the
pedestrian thinks he is going TO take one
course, he takes another merely to frighten
him He shortens curve TO bring his
vehicle dangerously near some unsuspect-
ing person, or if he thinks it Will cause
greater annoyance, drives slowing over
crossing. He shouts like a tiend if the
foot passenger does not hasten TO get out
out of his way. and when the latter has
narrowly escaped being run down he looks
back, laughs derisively, talks insultingly,
and utters some insulting phrase 10 those

doubt not that it will be matter OF
surprise to the majority of Americans,
those who know not Cuba and the Spanish
mode of government, to learn s.tnething
of the fifteenth-century systems that are
pursued here in an island onty ninety
miles distant from the winking light
houses Of the Florida coast. 1t would
seem as if the experience OF the Spaniard
as a ruler both in the old and new worlds
had been long and varied enough to have
changed his statecraft to very different
thing from what it is and would have ere
this guided him to a change in that queer
colonial policy which has cost him all his
western possessions save Cuba and one
other little island. Yet such is not the
case, and, as ever in the history of Spain
and her possessions, the government of
Cuba is one of the Spaniard, for the Span
lard. and by the Spaniard Briefly
then. Cuba is ruled by captain
general duly appointed from Madrid,
and several lietenants Hnder
him. The captain generals sway is abso-
lutte and the government is so arranged
that every citizen, and visitor as well,
lives under kind of espionage. Woe be
tide even the unfortunate American who
comes here without that relic of barbarism

1t was not until the year 1900 that
Americans began to make their own UNI
brellas. The word comes from the Latin
umbra, which means q shade, but th-
name, most probably, was introduced
into the English language from the Ital-
ian word umbrella ParaSOl means Ito
ward of the sum-" and another pretty
name, not much used by Americans for
a small parasOl, is 'parasolette. The
umbrella, in oriental countries, is a very
ancient and primitive sybmol of royal
authority. The crown" is but the fur
cap of northern races, adorned with gold
and jewels
The umbrella traces its descent to the
primeval ancestry of the tropical forest;
the gigantic leaves of the palms are its
prototype. But it is only in very recent
times that the umbrella has been con-
verted into the parapulie. Those of our
readers who have read Robinson Cru
soc, remember how he made his UNI
brella and covered it with skins. Then
there have been umbrellas covered with
large feathers that would shed rain like a
ducks back" and umbrellas with
coverings of oil cloth, Of straw, of paper,
or woolen stufTs, until now nearly all
umbrellas are covered either with silk,
alpaca, or gingham.-BrOoklyn Eagle.

The sale was continued this afternoon, as
was announced in last evenings GLOBE
REPUBLIC, and is in progress as we go to
press. The attendance is large, bidding
very spirited and the sale Is unprecedented
in the history of Springfield. That part of
the city is destined to become the most de-
sirable for residence, and our people are
taking advantage of the opportunity to
procure building sites for homes, before il
becomes too late. The north side is free
from all the annOyances that are encOun-
tered in some other portions of the city.
For instance. there is little or no danger of
any of the railroad companies appropriat-
ing the street for freight yards, and other
Outrages which some of our good people
have to endure. Many excellent lots were
sold this afternoon. and Messrs Foley and
Hayward find the demand so Tar beyond
their expectation that they have decided to
continue the sale tomorrow, Friday. after
noon, at l o'clock, in order to give every
one chance TO buy. Nothing gives greater
evidence of Springfeld's boom than this
great demand for homes

He Mas Talking Politics.

Last evening man on Market square
created considerable excitement and d,amuse-
ment by getting into the middle of the
street and with his coat in one hand and his
hat in the other, beginning to harrangue the
crowd, that soon collected, on politics. He
hOwled out his words like an Apache in
dian and it was almost impossible to deter
min what he was talking about. Constable
Nandeburg finally placed the man under
arrest and on his way to the station house
with him turned him over to a couple of
police officers. At the station house the
man gave his name as William Baimy and
he was locked up on the charge of drunk
enness and disorderly conduct.

Sleep sufficiently. Eight hours are not
zoo much for any person. Pale, thin,

possible. Let them take it regularly,
conscientiously, and always in a well

had weighed them down before, seem
somehow to have rolled away out Of

Eighty People Poisoned.

LEBANON, Pa, March 11.-On Taes-
day afternoon about eighty inmates
of the almshcuse were seized with
vomiting and sewers pains DR. Weiss,
the attending physician, was hastily
summoned and at once pronounced
it case of wholesale poisoning, Gpd
measures were promptly taken to
eounteract the poison. To-day most
of the victims are still suffering Sc
verely from nausea and twelve of
them are still in a critical condition.
An Investigation revealed the fact
that all who drank of the coffee pre-
pared for Tuesdays noon meal were
sick, and the doctor soon found the
coffee pot lined with thick sedinsent
of Paris green. The vesse! holds
barrel or more. and into this soIae
person had thrown almost foya'
pounds of the poison. The doctor
is of the opinion that had it not
been for the fact the poison was too
strong, causing instant vomiting.
more than half the inmates of the
world now be dead. No
deaths have yet occurred and no one
is thought likely to die.
