Prn.n.n, Of War In. Eurnn,.

One does not have to be in Europe
very long to discover that, with two ex-
ceptions, the European nations are in a
state Of constant perturbation. Poor
little England seeks to hide her terror
under a thin disguise Of braggadocio,
yet it is clear that she is painfully aware
that she is likely to be wiped out Of the
geography Of Europe at any time. In
America we hear constantly Of ''the
power, 1.-THE power" 'the awful power" I"
Of Germany, yet here in Germany the
people live in constant fear of the French.
The real powers in Europe now are
France and Russia; the English, the
Germans, the Austrians and the Italians
know this, and they are sweating blood
all the time. Russia is bound to have a
fight once In so often and France has a
number of old scores to pay off. The
great European war will not come, how
ever, until France says the word; she is
going to be prepared before she ventures
into battle again. 1t occurs to me that
Europe has soon to deal with foe more
terrible than war; the cholera is nearing
her confines. England claims that with
her system Of quarantine she has moth
ing to fear from cholera. a.--Eugene Fields

A Lavver,s Method of Advising.

Among the Lancaster lawyers attend
ing the sittings Of the supreme court is
Henry Clay Brubaker. When Brubaker
was a much younger man he practiced
law in Indiana. On one occasion he met
the late Vice President Hendricks at the
dinner table of a mutual friend in the
town of Cambridge. Turning to the
young Pennsylvania, the idol of the
Hoosier Democrats spoke of his own ear
lier days in the Keystone state, and then
volunteered this friendly advice:
"Young man, as you are just starting
in the practice of the law, let me give
you word of warning. Never write any
client letter Of advice. Let all consul
tations and communications of that kind
be by word of mouth. - '.
It will be remembered that the late
Simon Cameron put this idea in another
form when he said: "Rather go hun
dred miles to see a man than to write
him a letter. ."-Philadelphia Inquirer.
