A British Colonial Army.

From the London Spectator.
The French government is about. il is said,
to organize a colonial army for service in Indo-
China, New Caledonia, and its West Indian
possessions, and IL is worth while to consider
for moment whether Great Britain would not
gain by the adoption of q similar policy. We
Go not mean that she should split the queens
army in two, one for general service and one
for service in Europe only, for that suggestion,
though often made. is too large to be discussed
seriously until it is brought forward by respon-
sibie statesmen What we desire to propose
for consideration is the addition to the Queens
army Of . fatigue force, a considerable corps
darmee OF colored men, commanded BY
English officers, who would garrison and pro-
tect our ever-increasing tropical possessions
We need such men in Egypt, in the West In
dies, on the west coast of Africa, on the east
coast OF the same continent, in Zululand
Bechuanaland and Livingstonia, in Borneo and
New Guinea; and we may need them in other
regions besides. We cannot waste Europeans
In these climates. or ask them to do police work
and we meet our necessities by local leyies of
all klnds-sometimes, as in the West Indies al
most regulars, sometimes, as on the gold coast,
military policemen; and sometimes as in East
africa and Zuiuland, miscellaneous mob of
armed men, whose varied discipline, Qualities
and precise functions it would not be easy to
describe on paper. Il that not rather a waste
OF forceI 1t seems to US that if all these organi-
cations were superseded by a regular colonial
army, say OF 20 men, with a settled organi-
eaton, regular code Of discipline and uni
form rates OF pay. the empire would possess
most useful force, very cheap, able to acquire
q high tone Of pride, and incapable of becom-
ing oppressive to the protected populations,
1t would be paid for, in the main, by the tropi-
cal colonies protected, but would be under the
orders of the colonial Office IN the same way
ana TO the same degree as the Indian army is
under the orders Of the India office.

Russia and Turkev.

The Vienna correspondent of the London
Standard says: "About two months ago was
able to make ii known that secret negotiations
had been going on for considerable time be-
tween Russia and Turkey, the object being to
extort from tina Sultan treaty which, under
the deceptive title Of treaty Of alliance, and,
later, Of neutrality, was really intended to
secure to Russia the command of the Darda-
nelles and, practically. suzerainty over Turkey.
After great deal Of hesitation the Porte finally
rejected the overtures; but the diplomatic
failure did not deter Russia from returning to
the prosecution of her long-cherished scheme
Of cajoling Turkey into a so-called alliance. /
haved receive from Constantinople to-day infor-
nation from q trustworthy source to the effect
that the Russian diplomatists are again en-
deavoring by all available means to induce the
Sultan to enter into an alliance with Russia, or
at least to pledge himself to neutrality III case
OF war. In order to influence him in favor of the
idea, no pains are spared to excite in his mind
distrust of Austria. England and Germany. In-
trigues OF this nature have been going on for
some time past, but. as yet, Russia has failed
to gain her ends thanks to the watchfulness Of
the ambassadors of the three powers. Never
theless Russia has not yet finally abandoned
her object. 1t is probable that she will, as on
former occasions, come forward with threats to
intimidate Turkey, but it is equally probable
that that resort will continue unavailing, for,
owing to the ample protection of the Bospho-
rus, fears Of q dash by the Black sea feet upon
Constantinople are no longer entertained"

Milham's death to Alexander Beatty. Subse-
quently the rightful Mrs. Millham heard of the

and for the second time the government paid

WHEN A DEAF MAN CAN HEAR,
His Ears are Most Sensitive When
There Is the Most Racket About.

From the Philadelphia Record
The deaf man has Just di scovered that riding
in a rumbling car robs his affection Of its ter
rors. and is getting even with his backbitins
scquaintances who have expressed their opin-
ions Of him heretofore without reserve. An
sccentric millionaire, who had no hearing un-
der ordinary circumstances, found this out the
other day at the expense Of his lawyer, and the
latter now mourns the loss Of his most profita-
BILE client, while the deaf man thinks he has
learned a thing or two
The lawyer was sitting in q car talking to Q
friend when his wealthy client entered and
dropped into the vacant seat beside his legal
adviser. This old curmudgeon will talk me
deaf, dumb and blind, /" said the Blackstonian
TO his companion, and they both scowled at
Moneybags, who was looking out Of the car
window. He has spent lots Of money with me,
but its worth a mint to yell in his ear I'm
tired OF II. He Is deaf as a post"
Then the deaf man turned around "Y on can
send nae your bill in the morning" said he,
''and I'm done with you"
Lawyer and companion looked at each other
amazed The lawyer set about to find how his
client recovered his hearing so quickly.
1T Is due to the counteraction of the noisy
motion on the drum Of the ear" said the aurist
to whom he applied for information. 1.-The
rumble Of the heavy wheel on the track causes
the drum TO vibrate, and the afflicted one can
hear quite plainly. Some people think that
they voluntary raise their voices in a car That
is not so. Always speak in a low voice TO Q
deaf person In a moving car or vehicle.

A Romance Of Lake Minnetonka.


Gen. Sherwood Of Canton, Ohio, editor Of
the Ners-Democrat of that place and formerly
secretary Of state, was in the city yesterday on
his way to Waukesha, Wis. Between trains he
had time to tell the passengers good summer
story, the scene Of which is laid at Lake Mime
tonka, near the classic shades of Minneapolis
Two years ago friend of his, young man of
handsome and engaging appearance, spent his
vacation at this lake. and while there became
acquainted with a very pretty girl who, with
her mother, boarded at the same hotel Their
acquaintance ripened into SO desperate q fir
tation that the mother was alarmed and told
the young man her daughter was engaged to
an estimable gentleman in the east
As result of this interview he changed
days secluded himself. On the fourth
day he received a note from the girl saving her
mother was going to st. Paul to spend the day
and would he come to the lake and call. In
order to allay all suspicious this young Romeo
pretended to take the same train. He walked
through the car carrying his grip and made an
elaborate bow to the matron, who rejoiced to
think her daughter was safe at home. The gay
deceiver said something about taking smoke
and disappeared in the forward car, but just as
the car started he jumped off ON the side oppo-
site the station. He returned at once to camp
had pleasant visit with the daughter in the
forenoon. and after dinner they went out for q
sail on the lake.
Toward evening sudden squall arose and in
the storm the cat boat was overturned and
Romeo and Juliet were nearly drowned. For
several hours they chung to the keel Of the boat
in pelting rain waiting for some one to come
out and rescue them. Finally belated fisher
man heard Romeo yelling and, altering his
course. took them aboard. 1t was almost mid
night before the wet, bedraggled pair reached
the hotel, where a very irate woman was wait
ing to receive them. The girl Was ordered to
her room instanter, and then, before the young
Ohioan could decamp, the indignant matron
opened the walls Of her wrath upon him. She
threatened him with arrest for trying to kidnap
her daughter and declared she would have him
horsewhipped for his deceitful conduct. Many
other sorts Of dire vengeance were limited at,
but he beat retreat before the full sentence
was pronounced. Next morning mother and
daughter returned to their home in the east,
and three months later the young fellow re-
ceived cards announcing Juliet's marriage.
About month ago he was a recipient of a let
ter from his former fame, the purport of which
was that her husband was dying Of quick con-
sumption and she had never forgotten Lake
Minnetonka. But he has. He is engaged to
be married to another girl now

LOUISIANA POLITICS.
A Protectionist Nominated for Con.
gress by the Republicans.

Henry c. Minor, Of Terre Bonnie, has been
nominated by the republican convention of the
third congressional district of Louisiana with
out opposition, DR.. G. B. Darrell having re-
tired from the fight This il . victory for
what 10 styled the progressive wing Of the
republican party, Of which Mr.. Dudley Cole
man, congressman-elect from the second dis
trict, is a member. Mr.. Minor ia native
Louisianian, an ex-confederste, and was q
democrat until about six years ago. He is a large
sugar planter, was q member Of the sugar
planters convention in 1888, and was one of
the three delegates sent to Washington to try
and protect the sugar interest from unfriendly
legislation. Becoming convinced from his visit
here that the republican party alone offered
sufficient protection. he Joined it in the cam
paign of 1884 on the tariff issue. MIR. Minor
held the Office Of naval collector at New
Orleans for while, and was q delegate to the
late republican nominating convention.
The New Orleans Times Democrat declares
that Hon. Murphy ). Foster, of st. Mary, is the
only democrat who can carry the district
against Minor. Mr.. Foster is a free trader,
but the Times says the platform will certainly
be strongly for protection.
