EDITORIAL NOTES.


Fifteen to seven. "Hope deferred maketh
the heart sick"
1t is not at all pleasing to read that the
loss by fire in the United States during six
was during the same period last year, being
SO, 900, 900. And the worst of it is that a
great part of this loss was entirely needless.
The president of the horse railroad compa-
ny in Nashua, New Hampshire, recently issued
an order forbidding the use OF whips in the
hands of drivers employed by the corpora
ton. He further ordered that all whips
owned by the company should be burned.
Out of 106 persons treated within period
of eleven months at the Pasteur Institute at
Rio de Janeiro only one died and that one had
neglected to follow the treatment as directed.
In sixty-two of these cases the dog by which
the patient was bitten was unquestionably
mad; in the others it was impossible to de-
termine positively the dogs condition.
A great many Scotchmen are emigrating to
Chill, and the newly arrived write home most
enthusiastic accounts of the country and of
the chances for securing an easy livelihood
there. At first it was, only mechanics,
skilled and common, who went, but now 1t is
the farming class Also There is a regular
Chilian emigrants' correspondence depart
| ment in some of the Scotch weekly papers.
A new law has just gone into effect In
Maine, under which the peddlers must pay
the Secretary of State a license fee of 81 fo1
the right to peddle, and must then pay fe'
ranging from So to $50 to each city or towr
in which they ply their avocation. Certain
goods are excepted from the operation of tn
law, but it applies to practically all of tn
class of pack-peddlers," g tin-peddlers,
etc.

Imust mention a melancholy fact which
shows how fractitious Is the taste of the pub
lie for art, says Paris correspondent. Peo-
pie go in shoals to an art exhibition when 1t
Is fashionable one;" it is the proper thing
then. 1t seems that the exhibition of Barye's
works is not fashionable, for no one goes to
it; the entrance fees scarcely amount to
more than a guinea a day. Although the
hall has been lent by the Beaux arts school,
the expenses will not be covered; and yet
some of the bronzes exposed are perfect mas
terpieces, worthy of Grecian art. Barge is
the first sculptor who ever modelled animals
as they really ars Before his time people
were satisfied with the wigged lions, such as
those that decorate Trafalgar square; tri-
umphs of conventionality, negations of
truth. He took the trouble to go to Jardin
des Plantes and study the living model; and
although the king of the desert does not
come out to his full advantage in cage,
still Barge modelled marvellous things. He
| loved all wild animals-even elephants, buff
| faloes and rhlnoceroses, dogs, stays, roes,
goats, or even rabbits, serpents, izards-in
| fact all animals. But it is the custom to
| consider as secondary the art of an animal
painter or animal sculptor, and poor Barge
| died in distress beside his masterpieces.
1t is, however, some consolation for bis
ghost to know that Americans are cover
| ing his bronzes with gold; although 1t is
shameful that in his own land such indif-
ference is shown to his memory. 1t Ii
said that America will erect the statue of
| which France does not deem him worthy.

MARGARET SULLIVAN.
Facts About the Leading woman
Journalist of America.

Journalist of America.
When the prince visited the Trocader a
few days ago, wonder if ne remarked a
calmed-faced, kind-eyed, nunlike figure,
absorbing everything that passed under keen
gray eyes, writes Paris correspondent.
Did the heir to the British crown know he
was almost elbowing one of tina most poten-
tial factors in the drama that must alter
nately liberate Ireland from misrule, and
perhaps precipitate that republican form of
government in the island kingdom which the
Jolly prince was said years ago to have
acknowledged inevitable. The occasion
refer to has excited immense interest in
Paris, where she is acting as the agent of the
American associated press. She got the bill
let in q manner that would have disturbed
equanimity of most men. The manager or
the associated press, William Henry Smith,
knowing the need of person OF education
and experience, suggested three names to his
EMPLOYERS, the directors of the assoeiaed
press.
When the votes came in Margaret +. Sui
livan's name led all the rest. Mrs. Sullivan
at once accepted the difficult post and set
ont lust before the opening of the exposition
| with carte blanche as to expenses and assls-
tauts. The felicity of the choice was at once
shown In the admirable Stuo1es OF the eVen6
| and its meaning cabled by this remarkable
woman. These cabled letters are luminously
clear, vet almost exhaustively critical Of the
vast Accommodations brought together in this
stupendous bazaar of the worlds activities.
/ see that in spite of the cruel predicament
of her husband, Mrs. Sullivan holds her
post This, if there were not stronger rea-
sons, would convince me of the baselessness
of the accusation against Sullivan-for if the
wife had the slightest cause to suspect he1
husbands guilt, she would have been In this
country just as swiftly as steam power coule
carry her after she heard Of his alleged incul
patton. Though the most womanly of womeI

Her history, when writer, will amaze Amer
icaus. Her work, since she accepted mod

1869, has been more diversified, brilliant an
result-producing than that of any ma

tains Are Not Exactly Dudes.
[Chicago MALL
One who has not lived there can{never ap.
preciate the picturesque and peculiar lives of
the North Carolina mountaineers, says the
Washington Post. The railroads, the war,
the excursions of revenue officials, have
tended largely to obliterate these racy and
racial peculiarities, bu.tyou want to get Sem
ator Zeb Vance or Major Hugh Waddell to
describing the mountaineers of the SOS and
earlier. A well-known Washington mer-
chant tells the following story on himself:
He was born clear up in the mountains near
the Tennessee line. His mother died when
he was months old, and his father and
grandmother s'raised" him by hand in their
lonely cabin on a mountain clearing, miles
from the nearest neighbor. He was clad in
single flowing garment on the Mother
Hubbard style, made of homespun towcloth,
which was heightened as years added length
to his limb.
Henever saw girl until he was 16. That
year terrible drouth struck in and his
father had to go ten miles down the "cove"
to get his corn ground. So he yoked up the
steers and threw several bags of corn in tine
bottom of the cart. The boy, in his PEI
culiar garment, climbed in and sat on the
bags. He wss going to new and far-of
country, and every sight was wonder. Ar
irving at the mill he watched with curious
interest the corn making its way from the
hopper into the heart of the stone and then
squirt out in warm white jets into the trough.
He went outside and saw the water pour
over and turn the huge overshot wheel, and
peered with a sensation of fear: into the dark,
mossy cavern into which the wheel was for
ever retreating.
On a rising at little distance he spied q
log cabin, and shortly wandered over through
the brush in its direction. A rail fence
stopped his progress a couple Of rods from
There, sitting outside the door on a bench,
were two girls. One was spinning wool and
the other knitting. They were the most
beautiful things he had ever seen, and he
nearly died right there. They saw him and
burst out laughing at his remarkable ap-
pearance He didn't know what to do, but
thought it was probably the proper thing to
stare at them and laugh back, which he did
with interest. This mutual entertainment
kept up for some ten minutes, when one of
the girls laughed SO hard she rolled off the
bench. He thought that was queer, but
Just then he felt something cold on his
legs.
He turned around. As he did SO both
girls shrieked with laughter and ran into
the house. He found that the cold thing on
his legs was the mazzle of bull calf that
was chewing away vigorously on what was
left of the rear Of his dress, which had been
shockipgly multilated by the animal dur
ing the few minutes he was staring at the
girls.
He has seen more girls since and bears
their smiles with greater equanimity. He is
also one of the best dressed men in WASH
ington, but that experience with the bull
calf and the girls will never be effaced from
his memory.
