English Boots In Egypt.

The supply Of bogus boots carried to
Egypt by one of the last drafts of our
forces there ought not TO result In fortune
to the unscrupulous maker, as q similar

war. On investigation being made, ac-

boots were machine made, which 10 con-

were composed of thin leaves Of leather,
filled out with substance something like

The latest OF Washington novelties Is n
Greek dinner. The table, at one given
there recently, was decorated with gar
lands ofOoscs, and the center ornamen'
WAS Grccian Tyre, with golden strings.
The floral decorations were gGrlands OF
roses, and the walls were hung with rugs.
Couche5 were placed ut intervals
throughout the room. The guests sat on
great chairs, covered with rugs, and each
wore II wreath of laurel, tied with purple
ribbon The menu was written in Greek
(Which, Of course, was as plain as the
roses on the table to undcrstandD, and
among the dishes were wild hour, roast

hour took place ut about the middle of the
dinner, when burning Oriental drinks
were served in silver tanliards.

There is perhaps, says Mr.. John VIII.
cox, of Vincland, n. j.. no practice so
fatal to successful strawberry growing as
the one almost universally adopted of al
lowing the ground to remain uncultivatcd
until after the fruit is gathered This il
done to avoid the sanding OF the fruit, but
it must be borne in mind that under this
practice, with the droughts which occur
two years in five, during tho ripening Of
the fruit, the crop is practically lost whcro
otherwise, by tho retention os moisture in
the soil, through thorough system OF
puly lycrlzing and cultivation, full crop Of
the best fruit could have been obtained.
In connection with this We obstrvc the
most important iact Of Gll thGt during
the prevailing drouGhts the short crop
callses tho market to rl;lc high, so that
under this system Of thorough cultivation
we Gro doubly rewarded for the extra la
Dor expended in the production of full
crop.

There Is a good deal OF secession talk I'm the
province Of Quebec just at present, accompanied
with vague suggestions OF annexation 10 The
United states. 1t is probably the mere overflow
OF q temporary 1T OF vexation, the effect of which
win pass away as suddenly as 1t appeared. Quebec
would on general grounds, be a desirable territory
for Us to acquire, II for other reason than that
she commands the mouth OF the St Lawrence
river. Her people are thrifty, hard-working
lot, albeit not highly educated or very broad
minded. We have found the French Canadians,
however, who have migrated 10 this country
and become mill operatives and market gar
deners in New England to possess some
excellent qualities for citizenship OF our
republic; and, doubtless, with the spread OF our
national ideas and spirit among them as gathered
In bulk In Quebec, they could be made into patri-
otto and creditable Americans. II Is to be regret
ted that their present outburst has been attended
with certain race and religious features which are
always dangerous TO peace and good order when
they become too prominent. The cry OF "Ouebec
for the French" and the declaration freely made by
Premier Mercier that certain acts OF the Dominion
government have sprung from English Protestant
hatred OF French Roman Catholics are unfortu-
nate Incidents II quebec decides to come into
our Union IL must be with the understanding that
her people come not as members OF any special
nationality or ecclesiastical communion, but as
Americans pure and simple, ready TO blend with
our people and live In harmony with them re-

The breach between the various democratic
elements In New York city is widening every day,
and the wedge which drives them apart is the
general popularity OF Abram s. Hewitt. The
business community, without regard TO party
afniiatons, Is behind him. and It remains for the
politicians TO decide whether they had better swim
with the current or try their luck at beating 1t
back. Mr.. Hewitt has declared, first, that he does
not thirst for another term as mayor, and, second
that he would not under any circumstances ac-
cept a nomination from Tammany Hall, which
he regards as a mere machine for the dspen-
satfon OF spoilS- The County democracy,
Tammany's old enemy, thinks strongly of letting
citizens meeting nominate him and then endors-
Ing the nomination and getting the glory OF sue
cess II no more substantial benefits But the
question comes up at once, whether glory enjoyed
by Itself alone would pay as well as dividend
shared with Tammany Hall There are at least
two men on the county list OF possibilities
who would be acceptable enough TO Tammany IL
the two halls could combine on them against a
citizens ticket with Hewitt's name on IL.
This Is the situation, and these are the doubts
encompaSSing IL, viewed merely as a municipal
matter. But a broader question for consideration
Is as TO the effect OF the city squaDble the fate
OF the democratic national ticket harmony Is
strongly urged by some OF the friends OF the Ad-
ministration on the ground that Mr.. Cleveland
must lose votes II the party in New York city is
house divided against ITSELF This argument is
partly founded on error, however. Experience
has shown that, In one way. local Tight may be
o good thing for general ticket. Ifit does
nothing more, 1t brings out the full strength OF
the party vote for each OF the contending factions
Is so resolved 10 defeat and rebuke its adversary
that IL drums up every man in its ranks
who Is able to get to the polls and cast a
ballot; and the workers for the general ticket
have only TO be on the alert, and see that each
voter for the local candidates is supplied with
general ballot also, TO secure extraordinarily
large vote. Barring out therefore, the possibility
OF Grades" and IDEALS" by which dishonest
managers may do more or less damage to the
national ticket among the lower class Of voters it
u possible that the commotiOn caused by Mr.
Hewitts temperance as a candidate, and the
struggle OF the democratic halls TO regain the as
cendancy In local politics by respectively support
Ing or opposing him, may be the best thing that
could happen for Mr.. Cleveland's chances, while
harmony, coupled with apathy, might be the
worst
