A warrior bold from the Congo State.
And . maiden from Zanzibar.
El0ped che night when tia hour was late,
And sailcd DER the ocean Tar.
They sailed and sailed. for the wind was fair.
And gave not thought for the clothes they d
wear.
They sailed and sailed and landed one day
on the beach near the big hotels.
And the Zanzibar girl met the bathers gay,
And swan with the fair-haired bellies
And they marveled much az her color and
pose.
But none Of them saw that she had noclothes-

BETTER FLAVOR.

The jars being small at the top, and
full, the milk is not effected by the mo-

being churned, as in larger vessels, and
is absolutely free from the metallic ia

SOUND ADVICE.

The following remarks OF Judge
Rix OF san Francisco will bear con.
sideration by parents:
Mrs. Frances A. Banning, princi-
pal OF the Sanchez-street Primary
School, charged with beating Charles
Vandenboss, pupil of Is years,
was sustained in her action, yester-
day. by Police Judge Rix, who read
the following decision in dismissina
the case;
do not think the punishment was
cruel, harsh or disproport!onate to
his oTense. I fail to discover any
evidence Of malice on her part, and
believe that she acted conscicn-
tiously, as she believed she ought to
do in order to maintain the proper
discipline of the school. Here let
me soy that, In my judgment, If
parents who send their children to
school would Use less haste in taking
the part OF those that need and re-
ceive punishment for infractions of
the rules, but on the other hand TO
give them TO understand that ii they
got whipped for bad conduct there
they would get another whipping on
their arrival at home, the teachers
and principals would have less
trouble, and there would not be SO
many suspended or dismissed, who
might remain and receive the train.
ing and education that would render
them good and respectable members
Of society.
In my judgment the defendant
should be fully cxonerated from this
charge and the case should be dis
missed and the defendant discharged
and it is 80 ordered.-IS. +. Cal

BISMARCK.

|. Bismarck has for years been the
salt Of Germany, be it Is who has |
piloted the ship of State through |
rroublous waters in short he has
practically been the maker of Ger
many. And therefore his severance
cannot but be viewed with the great
est concern. When the young EN-
peror assembled the throne it wa.
prophesied that there would early be
counter running, and seemingly
there has been. As yet, however,
we only know the effect. Still, it is
possible to suriuise regarding the
cause which has led to the with.
drawal Of the Iron Chancellor from
the arena in which he has made his
personality, his tact, and his firm
ness SO pre-emincnt and so power
ful. Bismarck has for lengthy
period been known to us as the
merciless foe of Socialism in any Of
it's forms, and therefore, if he con-
tinued in consonance with his past
principles, the stern Bismarck must
have been diametrically opposed to
the Emperor recent attitude on the
labor question. Emperor William
the latest is popularity accredited
with will not very much less firm
than that of the Master Diplomatlst
who has played so powerful part
for many many years on the side Of
Gn
f we may accept the stories told of
the young Ruler, he is scarcely the
man to brook such unwavering OPP
position rs would come from the
now past Chancellor when the sub
ject matter was opposed to his life
long principles and actions. And
80 we may conclude this mutual be-
lief in self intallibility has led to the
departure from Office of man who.
by consummate skill and ambition,
lifted himself from a leutenancy in
the Iandwehr to the highest position
II was possible for him to reach
save that Of actual Ruler, and man
who has been able TO influence the
scales of Europe on the side Of war
or on the side. Of peace. Much as
we are opposed in thought to man
who could argue that all great cities
should be swept from the face of the
earth because they were the centres
Of Democracy and Coustitntionalism
n man who could promote stern cru
sadcs against the Press, man
whose views have been violently
opposite 10 the advancing tendency
of the age, still, in common with all
people, We possess n degree OF ap'
prehensiveness as TO the future, and
