The practical joke played on the Brazil.
liam Prince on a New York excursion boat
the other day was somewhat similar to
the one Capt. Paul Boyton played on the
British war ship last year. In stead Of

bottle with little smoking cotton stuffed
in the neck to serve as a fuse. or course
the Prince. as well as the officers of the
boat, was badly frightened, and some OF
the metropolitan papers made big sensa-
ton out OF the incident. 1t is to be hoped

it becomes Of international importance.

The New York police, who were re-

der decision of the Court of Appeals.
The Sun says: "The younger men, who
fought the tax on the ground that it was
too high premium for 81, 200 insurance
at their age, took back their money gladly,
especially those whose vacations are
ahead Of them to spend IL in. The older
men, who had for long years paid money
Into the Police Mutual Benefit Fund,
which this scheme took the place OF, took
their money reluctantly. Many OF them
have no other insurance on their lives,
and some OF them cannot make any pro,

LOWELL-S DAY.
A General Observation OF the Day by
the Public schools.


Perhaps the most beautiful feature OF
the work of our public schools, and the one
that awakens the most interest and
affords the most enjoyment alike TO pupils
and visitors is the celebration of authors
days. The custom was h0nOred in the OBJ
serYance by all the schools of the
city yesterday when the poet Lowell
was the theme. Since January
all the schools have given considerable
study to the life, character and writings OF
the man, and every grade from the primary
up. found something TO appreciate
and inspire The exercises at the
high school were held in the
forenoon and consisted Of music,
essays, readings and recitations. The bal
ance OF the schools devoted the afternoon
TO the celebration. More or less elaborate
decorations were found in all the schools
and the accommodations for visitors were
crowded. In the lower grades the
exercises consisted largely Oh the
recitation OF short sentiments
from the poets writings which had been
learned during the year, and questions ana
answers between the pupils relating TO the
poet and his works, intersperSed with mu-
sic, essays and Rotations. AT
the training school the stage was
decorated with beautiful vases of cut flowers
and pictures OF the poet and his home al
ElmwoOd.

Capt. Russell Blakeley returned from

down there" said the captain, in answer to
the reporters interrogation as to what was
new in Washington. Extremely 50.
There doesn't seem to be any excitement at
all. There are no points being brought up
in the senate that creates any warm argu-
ment, and don't anticipate much activity
unless the silver question sHrs them
up, and in that matter the
legislators have all shown their
hands. The people seem to be attending
more to social pleasures than business pur-
suits, and this is more noticeable than

The river and harbor bill is all right,

and will probably go the Pacific coast
Gen. Howard will also be made
brigadier general and the two COM
missions will be signed the same
day. 1t is question whether Howard will
go to New York or Chicago; it all depends
upon whether Gen. Schofield chooses to
