HE WILL LEAVE THIS MONTH.


 Would Have Been Considered a Casus Belli Among European Nations-Specu- lation as to His Successor.
 WASHINGTON, Nov. 3-The interviews and statements which have been attributed to the British minister during the excitement fol- lowing the publication of the Murchison let ter have annoyed Lord Sackville excessively. He says that all statements attributed to him are false, as he has not seen a reporter sinca the hrst days events growing out of his let ter, and then he simply said that in view of the breach of confidence the writing of the letter was a mistake
 The curtains at all the windows of the man. sion occupied by the legation have been drawn. The minister himself has remained indoors and will not appear in public. He VIII leave here when his preparations are completed-possibly about the latter part of the present month. After completing the necessary forms incident to assuming his title he will take his seat as peer in the house of lords
 1t Is intimated ill diplomatic circles that the acton taken ill his case by the American government would have been regarded as a casus belll among European nations, but was not so regarded toward the United States on account of American methods.
 There is much speculation as to the successor 10 the mission. Second Secretary Herbert has been formally designated to take charge ot the legation until the return of Mr. Ed wardes, who is now in London on leave.
 The report of Mr. Phelps to Mr. Bayard upon his recent conferences with Lord Sails bury on Lord Sackvilles case is still with heid It.is understood to be quite volumin- ous. The ground upon which he placed Lord Sallsbury's declination to take any serious notice of the affair is that the letter was private and confidential, and therefore not a subject of serious diplomatic conference.
 LONDON, Nov. 3.-In diplomatic circles here the suggestion that Lord Dutferin shall succeed Lord Sackville as minister to Wash. 1ngton Is regarded absurd Lord Duffariu Is an ambassador, draws the salary of the first rank in the diplomatic service and is eligible to the highest pension If he were appointed minister to Washington he would occupy a second class position, with dimin ished pay.
 To the general public in England Lord Sackville is almost unknown, and this is taken to account for the absence of public excitement over his dismissal The newspa pers keep up a running fire of comments on the matter.

Mr.. Thomas Belt gives in his book.
"a Naturalist in Nicaragua" an enter
tanning account Of the leaf-cutting ants
as he had to study them in his garden
In Central America These insects
strip trees and shrubs OF all foliage,
but the native trees do not suit them so
well as cultivated ones. The result is
that when they get into garden it
means the complete destruction of all
fruit trees and plants
When the ants made one OF their
nests or hills in the garden of the
naturalist, he took measures TO dis
lodge them by pouring carbolic acid
mixed with water down their nest.
This drove them out.
Next day." says Mr.. Belt II found
them busily employed bringing up the
ant-food from the old burrows and
carrying 1t to a new one a few yards
distance, and here l first noticed a
wonderful instance of their reasoning
powers.
'Between the old burrows and the
new one was a steep slope. Instead
of descending this with their burdens,
they set them down on the top of the
slope, whence they rolled down to the
bottom, where another relay Of labor
crs picked them up and carried them 10
the new burrow. II was amusing 10
watch the ants hurrying out with
bundles of food, dropping them over
the slope and rushing back Immediate
ly for more. They also brought out
great numbers OF dead ants that the
fumes OF the carbolic acid had killed.
"a few days afterward, when Wis
tied the locality again, found both the
old burrows and the new one entirely
deserted, and l thought they had died
of; but subsequent events convinced
me that the survivors had only moved
away to a greater distance.
at was fully twelve months before
my garden was invaded. had then n
number OF rose trees, and also cab
bages growing, which the ants seemed
10 prefer to every thing else. The rose
trees were soon stripped OF their
leaves, and great havoc was made
the cabbages.
II followed them to their nest, and
found it about two. hundred yards from
the one of the year before. / poured
down the burrows, as before, several
buckets Of water with carbolic acid.
Tho ants. as before, were at once with
drawn from my gardeni and two days
on visiting the place, ]
found all the survivors at work on one
track that led directly to the old nest
OF the year before, where they were
busily employed making excavations.
II was Wholesale and entire immi-

doctrine really means that the luck

whether it will change sooner or later;
the other really means that luck may

not telling the gambler how long that

the poor simpleton, for even gambling

chances for any particular event or
series of events. Whatever happens,
one or other law must be justified, but
gamblers rejoice at this Us evidence in
favor OF the two laws instead OF seeing
that it proves both 10 be worthless.
Does a gambler who has been lucky
win afresh, then the gamblers
around see in the case an illustration
of the "vein of luck" Does the luck
change, then they proclaim, with
equal wisdom, their faith, in the
doctrine of tho "maturity OF the
chances" They may not use these
precise words, on the contrary, theip
words may be any thing but precisei
in one case they may says "He has
the devil's own luck" and in the other
they may swear Justify, because, hay
ing backed his luck, they have lost
money. And since every single ex-
perience of every gambler is bound to
confirm his belief that luck will either
change or continue unchanged, his
faith in the fundamental idiocies
of gambling, the "vein OF luck" and
the 'maturity OF the chances" grows
constantly in strength and fervor. The
belief that in the long run luck must
run even Is not quite so obviously mis-
leading as either Of the two, the COM

II "a true, indeed, In sense; but 1t Is
misleading all the same. It means so
much less than believers in 1t imagine.
Consider how little It really promises.
II the gambler when he looses assures
himself on the strength OF this law
that he must one day recover all he
has lost, what an argument he should
find in that against gambling. FOR
what earthly use can there be in con-
tinuing a process which, II continued
long enough, is bound to land you
where you beganp But tho fatal
trouble about this article OF the gam
bler's faith is that IL says nothing about
a beginning. II applies to every stage
of his progress, whether he is in pocket
or out Of pocket.-Prcf Proctor, in

Funny Errors Which Made Considerable

Shortly after the invention OF print
ing the wife OF printer in Germany,
while an edition OF the Bible was in the
press on one occasion made small but
important change in the types. The
sentence in Genesis in which it is de-
clared that Eve shall be subject to her
husband runs thus: "He shall be thy
lord" (Herr). This was altered TO
"He shall be thy fool" (Narr). Many
copies OF the book got into circulation
before the substitution OF the one word
for the other was discovered, for In
black letter Herr and Narr much re-
semble each other. 1t is said that the
practical joke cost the unfortunate
woman her life, she having been con-
demned to the stake by the ecclesiasti-
cal authorities. During the latter part
OF last century an. awkward mistake
occurred in this country in printing the
Bible. In this edition the word mot"
was omitted in the seventh commando
mept. For this piece OF carelessness
the then Archbishop Of Canterbury
imposed heavy penalty. The edition,
so far as practicable, was called in and
destroyed, and a fine OF f20, 900 was In
llicted upon the printers. The Roman
Catholic Missal issued in France was
once the subject of a ludicrous blunder.

and then baked for an hour, il is better
than when baked in the ordinary way.
Stale bread and biscuit can be

THINK OF OTHERS.
Learn to Prefer Others to Yourself In the
Little Things of Life.

I
Little Things Of Life.
Many good people who inveigh
against the world ale, in an uncon-
scious way, quite as culpable as their
neighbors. The truth is that people
in general are so wrapped up in them
selves that they do not even think OF
the Inconvenience or annoyance they
may be causing to others by their
thougthless rudeness. The true gem
tlemen and ladies are those who have
acquired the unconscious habit OF pre-
ferring, In the thousand little things
that make up social life, others to
themselves. Let this principle be ap-
piled TO few very common offenses
against good manners.
Some people habitually go to church
late, or leave concert-room before
the programme is completed, and
while some one is actually playing or
singing. They discompose not only the
minister or the artists, but every one
in their immediate neighbofhood.
Why do they do thisP 1t is simply an
exhibition of unconscious selishness.
They do not think it worth while to
hurry themselves in order TO reach
church few minutes earlier, and in
order 20 save themselves little incon-
venience in leaving with the rest OF the
audience, they depart few minutes

heads; not for one moment do they
consider that tho little trouble they
save themselves is hundred times
counterbalanced by the annoyance
which they are causing. They
do not think, because they are not in
the habit of thinking, except OF their
own interest. But the very essence OF
the courtesy that characterizes the
true lady or gentleman is this habit Of
thinking. The reason why 30 many
people slam doors, or leave them open;
why gentlemen puff tobacco smoke
into the faces OF ladies they are accom-
panying, or whom they may be pass-
ing; why people in church do not
check the chorus OF coughing that
breaks out Immediately the sermon
commences, and hundred other
familiar instances, is precisely the
same unconscious selilshness. Thought
lessness, where the feelings or the CON
venience OF others are concerned, Is
selfshness, and selfshness is the con-
genial soil of bad manners Farm and
