CONSOLATION.

Dear Betty, when an hour ago
You scorned my humble offer,
Because my lean and empty purse
Was not well-filled Golfer.
Why did you breathe your cruel
"NoU
With such frightened culver?
Perhaps you thought 1 meant tc
seek
Some suicidal river.
All, no, sweet girl! These modern
times
Of cynic calculation
Take wiser ways and means to end
A lovers desperation;
And Corydon no longer signs
His heart away in sorrow,
But seeks a richer Phillis out
And woos again tomorrow.
1.-THE Century.

Concessions by Plus.

LONDON, December, PA dispatch
from Rome to the Standard says, the
Russian mission to the Vatican has
obtained various concessions from the
Pope. His holiness sanctions the de-
portation of the Bishop of Wilma to
Siberia, accepts the Russian govern
ment's candidates for the dioceses of
Dublin and Plako and consents to the
introduction of the Russian language
in all the Catholic churches except in
the Liturgy, an invocation that will
completely destroy the Polish element.
1t is certain that the French influences
had much to do with the granting of
these concessions.

American Vessel.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, December 26.
The brigantine Josefa. which ar
rived in this port Tuesday, from
Montego Bay, Jamaica, brings news
of an outrage suffered by that vessel
at the hands of the Spanish govern
ment. While discharging, cargo on her
outward trip from New York to Ar
royo, Porto Rico, the Spanish custom
officials discovered that twenty pack
ages of corn starch, which were
marked on the vessels manifest were
missing. After extended search, the
goods could not be found, and the
vessel was seized by the Spanish au-
thorities, who held her until fine of
$4,000 was paid, although the value of
the goods in question did not exceed
$40. The master and crew were forced
to suffer many indignities at the
hands of the governor of the island,
and the officials under his authority
Later it was ascertained the missing
goods were delivered by mistake, on
board the ship Josephus, which lay
next to the Josefa, in New York, but
were placed on the JOsefa's manifest.
Explanations were made to the Span
ish authorities and the return of the
fine requested but was refused and the
vessel left Porto RIGA to load cargo
elsewhere for this city. James Breek,
managing owner of the Josefa, has
fled a complaint against the Spanish
government with Secretary Bayard.
1t will be urged that the war ships
Galena and Yantic be ordered to con-
tinue their cruise to Porto RIGA and
summarily secure redress for the i'm
position suffered by the Josefa.

mas night, the white caps visited DIR.
John Parkhill, a leading physician,
and gave him a terrible thrashing.
His Grand boy had been intoxicated,

whom he had reason to believe were
members of the organization,
and threatened to shoot them

LONDON, December 27.-A Zanzibar
dispatch says it has been discovered
that an agreement in relation to slave
dealing exists between the English
East African company and the sultan
of Zanzibar, and Arab slave dealers of
Manbaza. By this agreement the
Arabs are authorized to carry on a
trade in slaves and to
fog or otherwise punish them.
The company upon hiring
slaves must make an arrangement
with the owners; wages of the slaves
must be paid to the owners. The En-
glish mission stations are obliged I'M
der agreement to return runaway
slaves to their owners. After the
agreement had been signed, the
agents of the company, Mr.. MacKen-
zie and Gen. Matthews, accompanied
by number of ManbaZa Arabs, went
to the Rabul Church Mission station,
and demanded the surrender of certain
runaways who had taken refuge at
the station. The missionaries refused
to give them up. The company's
agents therefore in order to avoid COL
lision, paid $25 for each slave. They
were unable to return to their owners.
The English consul has issued a
proclamation warning all British
subjects in Zanzibar, they will be
liable to seven years imprison-
ment if they enter into con-
tracts for slave labor. The
British traders have made a united
protest against the order. They say
the slave labor is the only kind of
labor obtainable in Zanzibar, and that
if this is cut off, all work must be
stopped. In view of this protest, the
consul will suspend enforcement of
proclamation, pending instructions
from Lord Salisbury.

There IS but one feb hatchery in the
state OF Ohio at present, and that Is at San.
dusky. II is miserable affair 40 far as
commodious buildings are concerned, the
State appropriation being stingy when one
considers the Importance of the industry.
Pickerel eggs and white fish eggs are the
only ones halchcl. The eggs oi the former
are procured about the lat of April, and Of
the latter about the lst of October. Pick
orel eggs hatch IN from two 10 tour weeks,
but il takes five months to hatch the
white fi.h. The f4h are caught in nets IN
the lake. Three females are taken und
their eggs gently squcczcd from them into
pans OF three gallons capacity. The iu-
pfrgnalun lud from six males is squeezed
IRON Ikem into the pan, aud ho fab nre
then thrown Into the lake. This process
is continued until mnny vcs,cl4 are filled,
when they are brought tn the hatchery
aud plhred in glass jt's. The egg- have
Ia bc kept in constant motion from the
time they are put III the j,rs until the
little fish appears. ii the motion is slopp
ed an instant the eggs will adhere to each
other and are spoiled. In spite of the
utmost care some will spoil and must he
removed at once. They can be detected
readily, and are taken out with n feather.
The little pickerel are at first one quarter
of an inch long, and the white fish half an
inch. The water in which they are hatcled
is taken from Lake Erie, and is kept M
cool as possible. This spring 0,000 900
white fish and 65,000,c00 pickerel were
put in the lake. This process has been
going on for several years, and they grow
about n pound year. The supply OF
fish was never so abundant before this
year. 1t has been impossible TO hatch
any bass or perch, because the males can
not be caught at the right time in the
lake. When the little fish are hatched
each one has food sac containing vis-
cid fluid, which will sustain its lile a
month. The man in cha rye of the hatch
cry says that he has cut open the stomachs
of thousands OF white fish and pickerel, but
never found any thing in them but this
sticky fluid, 80 lie does not know what
they eat, if any thing, White fish have
been caught weighing 20 pounds and pick
erel 1S pounds. Journal.

The old remark that people love to be
hu nbugged remains rs true ms ever, even
if this is the nineteenth century. An
''astrologer" is raking in the dncats in
New York City by pretending to tell
fortunes by means of moles. He had
printed on cards four outlines of q
female figure. His clients on their first
visit are provided with a set of those
cards, which they take home and mark
in just the right spots with the moles
which they happen to bear. Then they
return to the fortune teller and he reads
their attributes and destiny from the
diagrams as filled out. His customers
are 80 many that usually one has to wait
in the anti-room an hour or so for an
audience.

We publish an article in another col

discusses the tariff question from n ration
al standpoint OF view. When il says,
however, that everybody KNOWS that
our exports are sold at prices made by
the worlds demand" 1t seems 10 have
got slightly removed from the base. II
Is believed by many in later years that the
price on leading articles OF farm products
are made by Boards OF Trade who scarcely
ever zee the product OF the soil, TO say
nothing of putting hand TO the pillow 10

l56 Democrats, 3 Republicans and 8
independents voting for, while 4 Demo-
Gratis voted against the bill, viz: Sowden,
OF Penn, Bliss, Grenneman and Merrimen,
OF New York. The Republicans voting In
favor of the bill were Nelson OF Minneso-
Ia, Brewer of North Carlina, and Fitch
OF New York. Twelve members were
paired and two refused to vote. The In
dependents voting for the bill were An
de'son of Iowa, Hopkins OF Virginia, and
Smith Of Wisconsin. Nichols of Nortl,
Carolina voted against the bill. The full
vote Of the House is 1926, OF these 1853
are clased as Democrats, 1853 as Republl-
cans and as Independant. or the four.
teen that did not vote, twelve were paired,
one WAS sick and one refused to vote. 1t
now remains for the senate TO take action
upon. On strict party vote the Senate
can defeat the measure and the bulk OF the
summers work in the House of Represen-
talives will go for so much lost time.
The average of the reduction IL figured
at 81 per cent. on the present tariff of AZ
per cent, which falls far short Of free
trade, and yet il will reduce the surplus
about 3O,OOO,0O0. The per cent. re.
dncIion should have been adhered to and
passed by both Iiouses-not in the interest
Of partisan politics.
