Mr.. James Ante5ny Froude is
afraid that the British West Iudies
if lelt to themselves would favor az
neXation to the Unted States. The
United States have just as mauy ne

Some day, however, the United States
may acquire British Honduras and
give it to the southern negroes.
Something OF that kind ought to be
done now, by raising the excise tax
upon liquors, the vice of drinking

THE PRESS IN GERMANY.
The Editor Who Goes to Prison-stric,
Law and Harsh Penalty.

Tho Editor Who Goes tn Prison-Strict
Law and Harsh Penalty.
The principal regulations of the Ger
man press are these: Every German
newspaper must print the name OF Its re-
sponsible editor, who is expected to 60 10
prison whenever any one Of the staff is
required for that important service. This
rule is not SO hard as it looks, for It Is,
after all, much better for the paper to
have one man In readiness for prison alb
sence than to live in uncertainty as to
whether the government might not come
to the Office and pick out for prison just
the most important man. The former
law which allowed the government to
suppress paper for short periods was
very much harder, for it threw the whole
staff out Of employment at irregular in
tervals and caused much hardship to
many innocent persons.
Each copy Of q newspaper must be
handed to the police of the district in
which it is published Immediately upon
its appearance. The police then care
fully scan the columns to see If they can
find any language on which to base a
charge. The government is authorized
to exclude from Germany any foreign
papers whose contents are displeasing to
the chancellor-of course under due pro-
cess of law. The fact that a CORE
spondent signs his name to an article
does not relieve the editor of the respon-
sibility attaching to any expressions he
may have used therein. There are
many ways in which articles may have
done injury in a manner which no editor
could possibly have foretold; hidden
meaning may have lurked in apparently
hidden statements, etc. For such cases
the judges are allowed discretion, and
for that matter they can do pretty much
as they please in all cases of this kind,
for it is for them to determine not only
how offensive any language may be to
the government, but they also determine
the punishment which the wretched ed
itor is to undergo.
In order to make the law as complete
as possible and to discourage in the
greatest possible degree the publishing of
political newspapers, the law provides
that not only is the editor responsible for
what is in his paper, but all the rest who
assist in producing it can be punished as
well-the publisher, printer and the news
agent who sells it. These regulations
apply to all respectable, law abiding
newspapers and particularly
such as have occasion to discuss public
affairs. In regard to papers advocating
socialism the government makes short
work of them. They are promptly sup
pressed by the police, their editors all
put under arrest, and every measure
taken to prevent their resurrection

Eating Food with a Knife.

Well bred people make a great outcry
against the bucolic habit of conveying
food to the mouth with knife. They
maintain, quite correctly, that the knife
is intended for cutting the food, and the
fork for lifting it to the lips. Then why
is it not as barbarous to cut with fork
as to carry with knife? 1t has become
the fashion to provide only fork with
certain dishes, such as pastry and many
kinds of dessert On what grounds can
this be defended The custom is, in
truth, silly affectation. Apparently it
sprung from an idea that one can eat
more elegantly with fork alone. If
the food requires no cutting, this may be
80, but whenever there is anything to be
cut knife should be provided. The
idea of cutting with fork is fully as
primitive and preposterous as the idea Of
carrying with knife, and the embar-
RAISING predicaments into which people
are being led continually, by persisting
in this absurdity, always cause me to re-
joice with exceeding great joy, because I

crime. New York Commercial Adver-

Helping the Right Side.

To help the right side is not only
commendable in general point oil
view, but is as judicious and prudent
when that help is enlisted in behalf
of the right side Of the body, just
over the lower ribs in the region OF
the liver. The most eff :ient help
is afforded by Hostetter's Stomaca
Bitters, an anti-bilious medicine OF
incompatible efficacy. lnaction OF

ton, sick headache, furred tongue,

ant breath, yellowness of the skin
and ball of the eye. The author of
these symptoms, liver complaint,
routed by the bitters is accompanied
by them in its fight. Fever and
ague, which always involves the liver,
dyspepsia, rheumatism, debility and
kidney troubles are all malades to
the early relief and final cure of
which this standard medicine is
adapted. Don't use it by fits and
starts. but Systematically, that its full
effect mayesult in perfect restor-

Her Own Old DARLING.

A good deal of amusement Is furnished
this spring by the wife of a certain sem
ator who always calls her husband Oar
ling" He isn't such one as the term
would be ordinarily applied to, being big
and burly and not very nice about his
person, but she seems to think it is a
pretty pet name, and uses the term of
endearment on all occasions. Whether
she is addressing him in private or public,
or whether she speaks of him to others,
she always says darling" and does it so
frequently that when Darling" is re-
ferred to now everybody knows who is
meant.
Darling has such bad cold," she
said to another senator's wife the other
day, THAT am going to put him to bed
when he comes home"
Darling went to the Capitol early this
morning." she remarked to another, Ito
attend one Of those horrid committee
meetings. What dreadful things they
arel positively hate them. Why, OAR
ling says if it wasn't for his committee
work he could spend lots of time with
me-"
The other senators have caught on, 4"
so to speak, and now seldom allude to
their colleague by any other term--in his
absence of course. One senator came
very near making blunder the other
day by using it at the wrong time. He
entered the committee room little late,
and as he took off his coat and gloves,
looked around the table, at which half a
dozen or more senators were seated. and
asked:
where's Darling?"
There was some frantic gestures toward
a bookcase at the other end of the room,
and the late conner blushed deeply and
looked alarmed. Darling was behind
map rack, where he could not be seen,
and if he overheard the remark he showed
no sign.-Memphis Avalanche.

The Lorelei in South America.

The Lorelei is indissolubly associated
with the legends of the Rhine, and no
one would ever have believed that she,
like less mythical sweet singers and
charming actresses, would leave her ma
tive waters and cross the ocean to en-
chant men abroad. But the Germans
have been unromantic enough to suggest
the necessity of removing with dynamite
the dangerous rock upon which the
golden haired siren sat and sang her
''wondrous melody" Turing careless
navigators to destruction. 1t is not likely
the Lorelei has yet fully realized how
completely her charming song is rem
dered harmless and that it will be neces-
sary for her to "move on" 9f
A place has already been found for her.
A colossal statue of the Lorelei is about
TO be made in Germany and imported to
the rocky shores of that great South
American stream, the Rio de la Plata,
and the sculptor Albert Mantle has al
ready completed the model for the cast
ing. A lover of Rhenish romance, for
merly Rhinelander, now dwelling in
Buenos Ayres, who possesses considera-
bic land on romantic part of the Rio de
la Plata, has cherished the memory of
the Lorelei, of his native stream, and
now proposes, prompted by desire to
perpetuate the poetic German legend, to
introduce her to this distant zone. This
South American Lorelei is q work Of art,
which win be lasting memorial, not
only Of the tabled enchantress of the
Rhine, but also of the romantic poetry
and art of Germany. Demorest's

Salt and Human Longevity.

In recent work by Professor Burg
graeve, of Client, the prominent theory
maintained is that salt is the great regu-
lating agent of life, and on the proper
use Of which human longevity largely
depends. Among the interesting facts
by Professor Burggraeve is that about the
end of the last century terrible epidemic,
bearing some analogy to scurvy, broke
out in Saxony, making such rapid pro-
gress among the poorer classes that the
government ordered an inquiry into its
nature and course. Tho result was the
establishment of singular fact, VIZ,
that miners, although reduced to the
same misery as other workmen, remained
with their families completely exempt
from the malady. The diet of the min
ers differed from the others only in one
point, viz, that being employed by the
state, they were supplied with salt gra-
tuitously. Salt was then prescribed as a
curative measure, and the epidemic dis
appeared. Leslie's.
