Nuggets Of Foreign News.

Seven old wooden warehouses nt Steinward,
Germany, containing cotton, rice, sugar and
saltpeter valued at 1000, 900 marks, were
destroyed by fire. Six persons perished in
the flames. The spectacle was a grand one
Twenty thousand persons watched the flames.
MOST OF the property wasinsured in England.
rive thousand cases of champagne and q
large quantity ofcandles were also destroyed.
The official report Of the worlds harvest
shows that the wheat crop in Italy, France,
Great Brit8in and Russian Podolia is from
20 to 26 per rent below the average, and in
Austria. Hungary, Southeastern Europe and
Egypt from 20 to 80 per cent above the
average. The barley crop in Great Britain,
fcient from 10 to Is per cent. In Germany
there is an average crop. and in Moldavia
the crop is 25 per cent above the average.
The Cossack expedition to Thibet, under
command of Gen. Prejevalsky, of the Russian
army, is exciting great deal of suspicion in
London as to the real motives actuating the
car in ordering it,. Ostensibly the expedition
ls sent out for the purpose of exploration,
but it is suspected that its real object is that
OF checking certain English movements and
preventing the Inauguration of others on the
Thibet and Bokharan borders. The ex.
ploration theory has been made plausible by
giving the expedition q scientific character,
IN it's accompanying corps of engineers,
geologists, ETC., but the fact that the govern.
ment subscribed 81 900 roubles toward the
expenses OF the expedition, as we'll as furnish
ing 1T With an escort bearing much closer
ordinary body guard, strengthens the belief
that offensive tactics are expected to be en-
ployed much more frequently than defensive
ones.

Clsveland's Weakaesa.

President Cleveland has given two omen

The electioneering campaign in America

people for historical, political, philosophical
and economic reasons The main
question at issue is English free trade apainst
the continental system of protection. The
republic is on trial.. Good, conservative

tne rule or ruin party of Blaine, whose
'r1ends nominated Harrison, and who would
certainly be secretary Of state under a Har-

covered with red velvet, of the most
modern construction; and the great
German minister never fails to '.trv
his weight" atleast once day. or to
record the result of his trial IN tho

string to the arm Of the weighing:
chair for the purpose. There Was 3
q time when the prince scaled the
somewhat Garganiuan. weight Of
~ pounds, hut t'much happened
since then" as his late friend Lord
Beaconsfeld once remarked. And.
among other things, the prince has
taken not to ''banting," but q more
recent system of dealing with ones
too, too solid f1esh." Thanks to
determined perseverance in the sys-
tenn, the German chancellor was able
to announce at the breakfast table.
ina tone of triumph, that he one
morning only weighed 100 pounds.

life and good health, would do we'll, Il
