HOsTLEK JOE's GENTLE HINT.

n Ss A4OOAAl00 4OOA - u1AIS 1A9 A41N4.
The now historic Joe Chamberlain,
who seems fully aware of the fact that
his day as political power in England
.is rapidly drawing to . close, has evil
IDENTIFY been looking about him for some
time past with view Of securing some
official position before political Oblivion
wholly swallows him up body and soul.
His recent visit to the land Of the
Egyptian was doubtless undertaken Ii
order to see If there was an opening for
him there, and the recent agitation Of
the annexation issue in Canada seems
to have gwen him the thought that he
might secure berth over in that coun-
try. Hence one of the Tory organs de-
clared the other day that if Great Bril-
tain vents to arrest the growing Can
adam sentiment in favor of separation,
she will have to cease her custom of
sending members of the House Of Lords
to Ottawa as viceroys, and appoint, at
all events sometimes. men in ''closer
touch with the people, and who are bet
ter acquainted with the popular feel
inRs and tendencies This is a pretty
plain hint on the part of Hostler Joe,
and we have no difficulty in seeing in it

nary to her royal nibs Queen Vic, Mr..
Joseph Chamberlain, who brides him.
self on being ''in touch with the Can
adian people, ana acquainted with the
popular feelings and tendencies" 1t is
very doubtful, though. if Salisbury will
take this hint, In the first place, he
despises Cham Derlain thoroughly; and
in the next place, he doubtless under
stands that the Canadian people would
never accept as viceroY the man through
whose laundering principally the fish
cries treaty was defeated which Canada
hoped to secure from this county, and
against whom Canada was very out
spoken during his last visit to this side
of the ocean. Any attempt to make
Joe Chamberlain governor of
Canada would assuredlY hasten the
separation OF that country from Great

Iris now authoritatively announced
from London that Lord Duffsrin, late
Governor-G General of Canada, and more
recently Viceloy Of India, has joined
the ranks of the Home Rulers. If this
be true, it shows that England's great
est diplomat is preparing yet greater
triumps for himself. Lord Dufferin
achieved distinction in the apparently
barren field Of Canadian affairs by vir
tue Of his rare tact and intellectual
qualities. even as the present Governor
General, Lord Stanley, is distinguish
ing himself by boldly opposing and
rebuklng the Orange bigots there.
N onentities, like Lorne and Lans

ANNEXATION SENTIMENTS.

1t looks at the present time as II
Keeling in favor of annexation is grow
ing IN strength in Canada, especially
among the French Canadians and the
Liberal party. The leading French
Canadian paper. in recent issue, voices
the sentiment of that portion Of the Do
minion on this question, and uses very
strong language. 1t says that Canada
gains nothing by remaining a British
province, and that the best thing 1t
could do would be either TO apply Tor
admission into the American Union OF
establish an independent government
of it's own. In further reference 10 the
subject, it adds; "How long, Cana
dams, will we be content to play in the
political arena the role of inferior be-
ings? The kings of France and Eng
land in b, gone days made war through
out the world with varying fortunes.
Because the latter proved the stronger

forever submit to the sceptre? Have

quoted enough from the paper referred
to for the purpose of pointing out that
the French-Canadian and Liberal sent1-
ment in favor OF annexation may some
day make itself felt In way that will
sever the ties that bind Canada to Eng
land. The separation Of Canada FROM
Great Britain will undoubtedly be
peaceful one. England has no desire

A great deal of censure has been cast
upon the fire department lately on ac-

grounds for this, though it is question
upon which many differ. While this

will somebody please inform the public
why such an objectionable delay was
caused in turning in the fire alarm on

great error?

E. e. Brahnon, of Holyoke, Mass, was

Davis was the victim of lost cause and
it was right and just that such cause
should have been lost. But the man
who would rejoice in such a manner at

human and comes as near being a cur

of London life, too, and de-

command of language that makes him

VERY PRECOOIOUs.
Three Youthful Burglars Working
in Daylight.

The burglarizing Of school houses by
small boys seems to be quite popular
lad in Minneapolis just now. a short
time ago several lads pleaded guilty TO
breaking INTO the Adams school, and not
long afterwards the janitor of the Harri-
son school claimed that the building
under his care was invaded. Yesterday
an eight-year-Old boy named Johnnie
Anderson, living ON Twelfth street
north, was arrested for breaking into
the Sumner school, at Sixth avenue
north and Washington. The janitor
discovered three lads in the building
and locked them in q room while he
went in search of the police. When he
returned two of the boys, nine
and ten years old, respectively,
had taken the somewhat hazardous
chance of dropping out of the
second story window and escaped.
Johnnie didn't dare jump and remained.
He had a considerable quantity OF
chalk, some marbles, half dozen
pocket knives and good supply of
pencils. He told the police that he was
returning from Sunday school when he
met the other two boys, who are
brothers and live near him, on
him a plug of tobacco and
some candy which they had stolen from
Kistler'S Sixth avenue drug store, and
unfolded their desperate plan to rob the
school house. He Immediately allied
himself with the youthful desperadoes,
their raid resulting as above stated.
John says the two boys who escaped
burgIarized Turner hall a short time
ago. The lads will be arrested this
morning
