Sufficiently Punished.

James Butler and Daniel Murray were
examined in the Police Court yesterday On
charges of attempting to commit grand lar
ceny. They were accused of having at
tempted to rob David Berger in K.street
saloon on Sunday morning. Berger was
not disposed to prosecute, and testified that
ne did not see either of the men put their
hands in his pockets. 1t appeared, how
ever, that the barkeeper bad seen Butler in
the act of picking Bergers pocket, and adj
ministered to the former terrible beating,
as the many contusions, cuts, and scratches
on Buffers physiognomy bore witness.
When Murray interfered, the barkeeper
knocked him down with a chair. Judge
Buckley thought the men had been suffi-
GENTLY punished b. the barkeeper and al
lowed both to go free, after warning them
not to get into trouble again.

The Chinese are, above all other things,
superstitious. The fact is exemplifed in
the uneasiness manifested in China at this
time concerning the young Emperor. The
people believe that he is an unlucky per-
son, and that there can be no prosperity
under his rule. The belief also obtains
that the Empress, whom he married less
than year ago, is an unlucky parsonage.
1t is cited that since the accession, and
notably since the wedding, there has been
nothing but disaster, failure and depression
throughout the Empire. Loyalty, as the
North China Herald puts it, is an unknown
quantity in China, and there is, therefore,
no barrier to the entertainment of hatred
for the personal representative Of the law.
General disasters now prevail in the more
populous parts of the realm, and in these
districts the spirit of insubordination is
manifest, and the local officers fear that at
any moment an actual rebellion will be-
gin. If there should now present an am-
bilious and capable man, he would have
no difficulty in tanning the Goals of discon-
tent into flame, and in rallying to his
standard an immense army. In case of an
outbreak, the foreigners in China would
be the first to feel the breath of the storm,
since they are in no case loved, and are
looked upon as having brought ill to the
country. The Herald is therefore wise in
asking the nations with people and COM
mercial interests in China to see to it that
none of the treaty ports are left for an
hour without the protection of one or
more men-of-war.

THE New York Times, after considering
meteorological conditions in that section,
the mortality rate, and the statistics of
health generally, arrives at the conclusion
that it is error to suppose foggy and rainy
weather to be unfavorable to health. 1t
is true that the commonly received opinion
is contrary to the conclusion of our con-
temporary, but there should be some modi-
fcation of its statement Like most other
rules arrived at by study of meteorology
and vitality statistics together, it has its
exception. For instance, ground fog is
in nearly all cases unhealthy, because it
arises from moist earth and is more or less
charged with its ills. Humidity that is
accompanied by heat, as a rule, is offensive
to health. Marsh fogs are always malari-
GUS to some degree. Aside from these ex-
ceptions, there are very few cases in which
humidity is detrimental to health.

THE New York Post protests against the
conclusion reached by the Agricultural
Department that arid lands do not need
irrigation. 1t appears that while all the
rest of the country is convinced that the
arid lands are valueless without irrigation,
the Agricultural Department has expert
mented, and concluded its judgment. and
now advises the people to go upon the arid
lands, assuring them that they can raise
cereal crops simply by thoroughly pulver-
;zing the soil and mulching it with straw.
This remarkable conclusion is based upon
a single experiment made near Garden
CITY. Kas. The spot selected is not true
TYNE of the arid lands of the West. At
Garden City there was rainfall last sea-
son of 80 inches, and theaverage precipita-
ton is 20 inches. In the true arid region
from to 10 inches is all that falls, and IN
ONE seasons none has fallen at all. The

IT Is very singular that the German flag
was not displayed when Malietoa reas-
cended the Samoan throne; that not sim
gle salute was made by the German men
of-war at Apia. The U. S. ship Adams sa-
luted and ran up her colors in honor of
the restoration, while the German ships
were silent and undecorated. Correspond
ents writing from Apia under date of De-
cember 9th dwell upon these facts, and
deem them very significant. The belief
obtains at Apia that German plotting is
going on to place Tamassee in office as
Vice-King, a station that the Samoans
propose to abolish as useless and encum-
bering. The excuse is given by the of
fcers of the men-of-war at Apia COM
manded by Germans that they could not
salute the Samoan flag without special or
ders from Berlin to do so, which sounds
strangely enough when the fact is consid-
cred that the German Consul signed the
proclamation recognizing Malietoa as King
and which act must have been under or

THE CASE OF DOM PEDRO.

Let us hope that the Provisional Gov
eminent of Brazil has not done so mean a
thing as to revoke the decree awarding the
Emperor Dom Pedro certain sums of
money, and that it has not confscated his
property, as is reported. If it has, great
shame has been perpetrated, and the SYM
pathy that has largely gone out to the new
leaders will be chilled. Dom Pedro was
beloved by his people. He was not aimed
at when the revolutionary blow fell. He
might have occasioned the revolutionists
great trouble by resistance, and have
plunged the country into long and de-
vastating war. He did none of these
things. On the contrary, he quietly took
ship a poor man and left behind all his
possessions, after issuing this manly letter:
In view of the representation which was de-
liyered to me to-day at o'clock in the after
noon, resolve, yielding to the power of circum-
stances, to depart with all my family for Eu-
rope tomorrow, leaving this country beloved
by all of us, and for which l have exerted my
self to give constant proofs of deep-seated love
and dedication for almost half a century, dur
ing which 1 filed the position OF Chief of the
State
In departing, therefore, with all the persons
of my family, shall always retain the most
tender remembranees of Brazil in offering ar
dent prayers for its greatness and prosperity.
Rio de Janeiro, 10th November, 1889.
D. PEDRO DE ALCANTARA
OF its own motion the Provisional Gov
eminent voted the retiring Emperor GER
tain sums of money, tfat is to say, as much
as he and his family received while in
their original positions. The sums so
voted were: To Dom Pedro de Alcantara,
500 contos de refs year, equal to, at the
present rates of exchange, $44S,0O0; to
his wife, 40 contos de refs year, equal to
500, 400; to the daughter, Comtesse d'Eu,
140 contos de refs year, equal to SIS, 400.
The correspondent of the New York
Times, who has forwarded the most elabo-
rate and satisfactory account of the revo-
luton, says:
After the reply of the Emperor had been re-
ceived, the Provisional Government, by a formal
decree voted Dom Pedro, for the proper estab-
lishment of himself and family in Europe upon
scale becoming his character. the sum OF 1900
contos de reis-equal to $500 600. This sum,
in drafts and the bonds of Brazil, together with
81, 1888 milreis Tor about $4,000 in cash, the COM
ing months proportion of his income, was to be
delivered to him when he and his family had
embarked for Europe.
Dom Pedro has not long to live, and
therefore the sum assured him would not
have long been burden upon the people,
nor is there reason to believe that they
would regret its payment. The news that
the Provisional Government has rescinded
its order comes from Lisbon, and is there
fore to be received with much allowance.
