BraZil's Revolution Warning to Europe


Speaking at liberal meeting in Aspatria
Eng, recently Sir Wilfred Lawson said the
news had come that they had established a
republic in Brazil. He had been filed with
wonder and admiration, and also perplexed
about the revolution in Brazil Here they had
had an emperor for ffty-eight years, and by
universal opinion that emperor was about the
most respectable old man in existence. But
the people said, ''We don't want an emperor
1t is a useless appendage, We can do very we'll
without one," and so they said to him, my
dear sir, we have had enough of you. You
have been very good servant and we'll give
you $500. 900, and 1000 year; and so off YOU
CO." They did well to pay, him off. They
acted very sensibly and treated him very
handsomely. But what a grand lesson the
whole thing was to nations and kings! He
thought that they in Europe might better in
future engage their kings and emperors on the
terms OF months warning or months
wages. tLaughter.I 1t would be fairer way
than allowing them to have the office for life
for then If they got tired of them they could
make change as quickly, as quietly and as re-
specially as they hadin Brazil. There was one
grand idea about it. That enormous region
which they called the new world was now, from
the frozen north to the sunny south, from the
Atlantic on the east to the Pacific on the west
without even one king, one emperor one
hereditary grand duke or hereditary humbug
OF any kind. Laughter That region would
be peopled before long with millions Of men
living under free institutions, free from en-
perors and monarchs whom people keep up
simply because they have not sense enough to
see the uselessness of them. Our children will
some day ask, What was a king, mammal"
and will be told that kings lived in the dark
ages, but had disappeared now. He was per-
haps looking little forward, but these things
came suddenly and great influences were at
work which would develop some day in man
ner that would cause surprise

They Chased the Rabbit,

Murderer Geo. Shippey who broke Jail at
Tunkhannock Sunday night, has not been re.
captured When the posse besieged his cabin
at LaGrange they left guard and returned to
town for achievements Some time during
the evening, as the three guardsmen were
keeping sleepy espionage of the cabin, a rab-
bit jumped past. The three took after it, and
under the excitement of the chase got quite a
distance away from the cabin. When the
morning broke and reinforcements arrived the
cabin door was forced, but inside everything
was deserted. All day today the search has
been kept up. The Wyoming county commits
sioners met and increased the reward for Ship
pey's return, dead or alive, from 800 to $500.

A Slow Brazilian Editor.

From the New York Times.
AS curious illustration of how slow to real
ize the actual state of affairs portion of the
Rio press was. we find l. Etoite du Snd, a French
journal established there eight years aud whose
editor mightbe expected to be well informed,
in its issue of the 10th November, devoting only
a short paragraph to the important events that
had taken place. under the heading of Grave
Disorders" The whole subject is dealt with in
a summary manner, simply tritiing revolt
or ''pronunciamiento," and suggestion is
made that the same officers and soldiers are
quite likely to repeat the operations against a
republican government
1t is just possible that the evident monarchist
tendencies of the writer were the cause of his
being SO badly informed. and that the wish was
the father to the thought. The belief is ex-
pressed that Brazil had nothing to gain by
changing the form of government which had
been the admiration of the monarchies. and the
republics of both the old and new worlds.

From the Chicago Herald.
Paul Morton, the general freight agent Of the
Burlington road, tells very good story on the
late II. NJ. Hoxie, who was manager of Jay
Gouid's southwestern system. during the great
strikes. One afternoon a rather tough looking
young man walked into Mr.. Hoxie's private
Office unannounced He neglected to remove his
plug hat as he entered and he cooked it fur
Their over his right eye and took two or three
vigorous pulls at the cannon" he was smoking
before he said: sis your name Hoxie?" Mr..
Hoxie said that such was the fact. ''Well," said
the fresh young fellow as he he hit the bullseye

Anything from general passenger agent up will

''that is no way to approach an official for q

The young fellow sat down, and Mr.. Hoxie
called his private secretary to the seat at his
desk and then walked out.
moment later he raped at the Office door,
and his private secretary bade him enter. The
fresh young applicant looked ON with wonder

to his private secretary. 'Yes, sir. What can

he would take his name and bear him in mind.
"You might call in again in a week or 80 and
may have something for you" "All right.
sir, said Mr.. Hoxie; Il thank you" Then he
bowed again and walked out, hat in hand. In
moment he re-entered, and the secretary
walked back to his own desk "That," said Mr.
Hoxie, sis the proper way to apply for a posi-

In Waterbury had to give MP the business be-
cause so many blank pieces of metal were OBJ
tanned in one way or another by workmen at the

Navigation on the Hudson.

Thin cakes of snow-ice are drifting with the
tide on the Hudson river between Poughkeep-
sic and Albany. The small passenger boats
that ply the waters of the Hudson to and from
various places between Rondout and Troy have
been put in winter quarters.
Several small boats yesterday made the last
trip of the season. Tonight the Cornell trans
portation company will send its last passenger
boat to the metropolis. The Newburg and
Albany boats have made their last trips.

No Angels in Theirs.

from the American Grocer.
Early last summer New Highlander moved
out to a small town in Arizona and announced
his intention of opening up irst-class grocery.
He had a number of bills posted up dwelling
particularly on the fact that the business was
to be square and above board. Just as he was
getting ready to open shop deputation of cit
liens waited on him and asked the newcomer
If the statements on the placards were made in
good faith.
"You mought as well give us the hull truth
about this thing" said the leader. "You mean
to say there hain't going to be no water in the
vinegar?"
That's what I mean, sir!'' replied the
stranger, little surprised Nor no sand in
the sugar!'
Amt they goin' to be beans in the coffee?"
"Most decidedly not, sir"
"Nor chicory, nuther?'
Never, gentlemen; l give you my word for
it." AVA
The crowd seemed nouplussed for moment,
and the leader held short consultation, at the
end OF which he turned and said:
Say, stranger, we've concluded that you air
suspicious character. But first let me ask
you if your cigars are goin' to be loaded-with
cabbage, you know"
"Not while l."
That's all we wanted to know. We gin you
twenty-four hours to leave town. an you better
leave. When we're in need o. angels we II drop

the deputation fled out.

FOREHEAD PRINCES ATTACKED.
An Opinion Asked and Given On the
Great Question.

Says the Paris correspondent of the London
Truth: Il hear that an attack is being made
in London upon curled forehead fringes, in
which way hair Is sometimes dressed. The
fringes are denounced. also hear. by some of
those ladies who would stamp butterflies and
flowers out of creation. | have been asked my
opinion on this great fringe question. My
answer is that must follow the physiog-
nomy and general style of dress in arranging
the hair. A curled fringe, with a sailor hat and
a tailor-made yachting dress and exposed to
sea spray, would be unsuitable. But it would
be quite suitable with broad-ieaf hat worn on
the back of the head or with a wee duck of a
bonnet running up into sparkling aigrette
and perched on the top of the head.
~ tousled fringe would destroy the repoSe
