RArHER uAED Of SCOTT.

state that it was very delightful in these

tellectual refreshment. ! think the
gentleman in question lost sight Of
the fact that hardly any one to-day
could return to Scott and his follow
ers for entertainment and find satisfaction.
The truth is the people Of the present day
require quite another kind Of reading from
thai which Afforded pleasure fifty and less
years ago. The short story has taken q

ACCORDING 10 the government ornitholo-
gisls IL IL no unusual thing for single pair
of English sparrows to rear twenty or thirty
young In one season. Assuming the an
nual product ofa pair 10 bo twenty-four,
half males and half females, and assuming
that all the parents and offspring arc alive
at the end of ten years, there would be 275,
7l6,os3,69s sparrows in existence IA the in
crease from that single pair. II Is "A
simple calculation in progression and
quite accurate, SO that we have 10 thank
the eats, cold weather and accidents that
our race and civilization are not obliteratcd
by the sparrows. The sparrows are not
kept down by opidemics or disease and 10y
their constant association with man escape
the natural enemies that restrict the in
crease of other birds. Cats destroy many,
but have better success with all other BIRDS
for by long association the sparrows have
grown wary of them. The sparrow
hawk, the owl and the crow blackbird are
their most vigorous enemies.
AZ for man, there can be no doubt he
has spent "A thousand times as much money
In destroying sparrows as he did in first
introducing them. BountieS have been Of
iered by towns and counties, and
Michigan now pays one cent a head bounty
for deceased English sparrOws. The city

What We Hope.

now gives to two of Blaine's particular
proeges, Messrs. Snowden and Schuyler,
nice places abroad. This Is the second
chance Mr.. Schuyler has had, we he
iieve, the first being nipped in the bud
by cIuel Senate, which refused Ia con-
firm one who had once sOrely abused
some of its members. Now that the
Senate cannot get its axe out for sea-
son, Mr.. Blaine sends his friend over
the seas To Cairo where for time AT
least, he may reyel amid ancient scenes
and gather material for book.
II IL pleasant 10 believe that harno-
nious relations are restored between
the president and the premier scenes of
amity aud friendship are always pleas
ing. and it has been really distressing To
the sympathetic heart To be told how
Harrison aud Blaine have been snarIing
st each other in their deus how the
president put his foot down ON Blaine 5
appointments, and how Blaine was
enduring the experience with the pa
thence Of Job; that WAS not guaranteed

The change that has coms over the
scene We trust will he enduring, and
that Blaine who lives for his friends
will get all of them into office; and Har-
gkson, who lives for his relations, will
ooo enough places left for them.

Differing Judges.

We see that the Judges Of our neigh
boring county Of Bcrks are as apt to
agree to disagree rs our own. The ques-
ton of revoking the licenses Of saloon-
keepers, who have sold liquor on sun
day, has been before the court for some
time and Judge Hagenman has reached
the conclusion that the complaints
should he tried before n jury, before
the license Is taken away by the court,
though he comedies that the law gives
the court authority to act sunmarily In
the matter. His colleague, Judge Ef-
mentrout, does not want to await u jury s
decision but thinks the licenses should
I've revoked promptly, to secure ohserv-
ance Of the law and In justice TO the
honest dealers.
The difference in their views may
come from the fact that Judge Hagen
man is about to stand for reelection to
his place. There is little room To doubt
that he il maenuvring for position and
tician he doubtless knows just what he Is
about. But il is certain that these re-
putci differences of judges upon the
bench are not conducive to securing pub
ic respect for judicial station or opinion;
and 1t is question whether our double
lie ,ded courts had not better give way
to the single headed bench. The old three
barrelcd court was better with the two
associate judges who didn't know any
law, but who had sense enough to reach
decision without quarreling and 1t
is all toss up anyway AS To which way
a court will go nowadays

regatta at Kiel, and IL is announced that
the great event of his visit to England in
August will be the naval review. Large
numbers of German naval officers will go
with him and the ocean racer Neckar viii
be used as an excursion steamer. II is eyi-
dent that the emperor is taking great pains
to increase the national interest in naval
affair, but unlike Peter tie Great of Russia
he seems To care for the matter only in It's
military aspects. lie is evidently con-
cerncd about the weakness Of Germany At
