The Future American Empire.


Queen Victoria, in her speech at the
opening Of parliament, said: II have
consented to take part in a conference
with Germany and America, at Ber-
lin, upon the Samoan question" Here
is q curious example Of the complete
surrender which has been made to
this country Of the word America. II
is now applied by the people Of other
nations only to the great Union OF
American states. To be an American,
therefore, one must be o citizen Of the
most powerful republic that ever ex.
listed. No one thinks Of calling resi-
dent Of Canada or Mexico an Ameri-
can. The people Of the United States,
by their achievements, have made
themselves stand for the entire con.
tinent. Perhaps this is an unconscious
admission on the part Of the rest OF
the world that it Il the manifest des-
tiny Of this country to rule all the ter
rit0ry, from the pole to the isthmui
and from ocean to ocean.-Chicago

In olden times the position Of women
in Russia was deplorablo, and, a. else.
where. il has only improved by de.
grees Herberstein declares that no
woman was deemed virtuous unless
she lived in domestic seclusion and
was never seen outside home; and
Jenkinaon says that, except on their
way 10 church at Christmas and Easter
or when paying visits. IL was an acci
dent II you ever saw Russian lady.
This habit has survived more or less
even tc this century, for Bremner
speaks of the wof,en as guarded with
Oriental seclusion," and Theophile
Gautier attests the same thing. So
strong in the Sixteenth century was
the prejudice against women that even
fowls or animals killed by their hands
were regarded rs unclean; and often,
if their husbands were absent, they
might he seen standing at their doors
and begging some passer-by TO per-
form for them the butchers office.
Not infrequently the murder Of
husbands avenged the maltreatment
Of wives; TO meet which law was
ordained that for this crime women
should be buried with their heads only
above the ground, there TO be left till
they were starved to death. In olden
days marriages were always arranged
by Intermediates, and no one would
have dreamed Of conducting his own
suit.
One of the most popular changes
effected by Peter the Great was the
regulation that no couple should be
married without the consent of both
parties, and that they should be al.
lowed to meet for at least six weeks
before marriage. The intending bride
groom sent his future wife such sym.
bolical presents Us needles and thread,
iaisins and fruit, and a whip.
On the wedding day there was al.
ways the show OF resistance on the
part of the bride so common every
where; the bride would resist to the
utterinost leaving her house to 60 te
the church, and would sob and make
great noise all the way thither. In
the church it was etiquette for her tc
| fall down at her husbands feet, and u
knock her head on his shoe in toker
Of her subsection. II is said that fol
three days after marriage she risket
her character if she spoke moro than ,
few words at mealtime with grea
manners and reverence" to her hus
band. It was customary for husband
to make their wives and daughters al
allowance for paint, and SO fond wer
the ladies Of this mode of adornmen
that Jenkinson compared them Il
millers' wives who looked as If the,
had been beaten about the face witt
bags of meal. The Gentleman's Maya

JUSTICE FIELDS STORY.

His Account of the Nagle-Terry Tragedy,
A San Francisco. CAL, dispatch says:
Several witnesses testified in the Nagle
case to the dangerous character of Judge
Terry. Several testified that when Terry
was shot at Lathrop Mrs. Terry rushed
into the room, threw herself upon her
husbands body, and remained there a
minute or two. When she got up she
declared that Judge Terry was unarmed
and called the crowd to search him for
arms. The pistol found in Mrs. Terry's
sachel was produced.
Justice Field was examined in the after.
noon. He recounted the events leading up
10 the Lathrop shooting. Justice Field
expressed the opinion that if Nagle had
not shot Terry he (Field) would nave been
a dead man within the next five seconds.
He said the expression of Terry's. face
when he raised his hand to strike the Sec
ond time could not be mistaken. 1t was full
Of malice and murder. Justice Field de-
clared he had never had any difficulty with
Terry of any kind whatever prior to CIV
ing Judgment in the Sharon case q year
ago In fact, they had always been on
the most friendly terms. Terry had often
Tried cases before him, and on entering
court had always spoken to him pleasant
~ to him. During the last year or two,
however, he had seemed entirely changed
and to have lost tho respect which he
formerly had for courts. Justice Field
added that the story of his having asked
Terry to support him Tor President several
years ago was pure fiction. AS he left
the witness stand the Justice remarked
that he was sorry there was no one on
the other side to c"ross-examine him. The
case will probably be concluded to-day.

POSTAL
Dr. Norvin Green of the Opinion that 1t
Will Not Work.

Dr. Norvin Green of the Opinion that 1t
Will Not Work.
Postmaster General Wanamaker recently
summoned to Washington various officials
of the telegraph companies in order to Law
before them some details of; and make
proposals for, q new postal telegraph SER
vice, which he has had under consideration
for some time. Dr.. Norvin Green, presi-
dent of the Western Union, was one Of
these officials, and he has just returned to
New York from the conference. DR..
Green said that 1t was q matter belonging
to the postal department and not to the
telegraph companies. He did not look up
it would be a distinctly second class de-
livery service. There would not be an
Immediate delivery by the postofices, but
stated times Of delivery, as in the case of
letters now. Business and commercial
men, he believed, would not avail them
selves OF such a service when they can
nave o first class service-i. e., messages
delivered by the company the very moment
received. 1t would, therefore. be of little
use to those who employ the telegraph
service most. 1t is, however, the extern
sion OF the Telegraph service that forms the
chief feature of Mr.. Wanamaker's scheme.
Or. Green said. There are at present
about $4,000 postotices in the country.
About $4,000 have telegraph service. DR..
Green said that of the $4,000 serving
offices about two-thlrds were profitless.
Were there anything to be gained by ex-
tending the lines the company would have
undertaken it.. DR.. Green was very much
inclined to doubt the financial success of
extending the lines to 40, 900 little places
in order to make the blessings of the tele-
graph service we'll nigh universal for the
peOnle.

Extending the British DonrinionS

Alvices from Honolulu by the steamer
Australia, Just arrived at San Francisco,
state that the British man-of- war Espie-
gle returned there August 18th. af er an
absence of a month. She had visited
Humphreys island and Riersecon island,
and annexed both to the Britt h domaiu.
Tho isl ,nds are twenty miles apart, and
are supposed to be on the route of the
projected trans-Paciiic cables. While at
Humphreys island the Espiogle took on
board twenty men of the British ship
Gar len from Sydney to San Francisco,
which was wrecked near Starbuck island
in July. The ship wen aground during
the night and was abandoned. The Off
GERS and crew in three boats kept near the
ship for a day or two, but finding she
could not be saved they attempted to go
ashore, but could find no place where it
was possible to land. The boat contain
ing Capt. Pye and the rest Of the crew was
lost sight of and has not been seen since.

DIVIDING THE REWARD.
Various People Want q Slice ofthe Reward
Offered Tor Holzhay's Arrest

Various People Want a Slice ofthe Reward
Offered FOR Holzhay's Arrest
The arrest at Republic, Wis, of the
h%ighwayman Holiday has given rise to no
end..of hard feelings. There are half a
dozen principal claimants for the rewards
offered for his arrest, and every one
who saw the capture made, or was within
half a mile of the place at the time, is
claiming a slice. The facts about the ar
rest, as learned by your correspondent
after thorough examination of tho parties
who made it, are as follows: Marshal
Globe, who is the only regular police Off
Ger in the village, approached the suspect
slngle-handed, without a revolver or even
a club. Holiday ldrew his revolver, but
the weapon was seizel by Globe. A
struggle ensued, and Whelan, coming up
opportunity, struck Holxhay twice, knock
ing him down. Mr.. Weiser and others
then came to their assistance and the
prisoner was taken to Jail. Marshal
Globes GOODNESS and bravery deserve rec
ignition, and the people of the town will
present him with q substantial token of
their regard. AS Holzhay will be tried at
Bessemer for murder, the government re-
ward of $1,000 will not be paid. As the
amount of the reward grows smaller the
claimants for 1t become more numerous.
