How Boys Get Acquainted.

subject to the local tribe, as the Della
wares were to the Iroquois in the
last century: if he whipped the other
boys, then they adopted him into
their tribe, and he became leader
among them. When YOU moved
away from ncighborhood you did
not lose all your rights in it; you did
not have to fight when you went
back to See the boys, or anything;
but if one OF them met YOU in your
new precincts YOU might have to try
conclusions with HIM; and perhaps,
if he was hoy who had been in tho
habit ofwhippii,g you. you were quite
ready to do so.-Harper's Young

TROUBLE FOR NEWFOUNDLAND.

Lobster Fisheries STIRRING Up Discord
Between the Islanders and the French.
LONDON, Jan. 2S.-The Newfoundland
question has aroused the latest animosity
which, in spite of treaties, royal visits
and fine speeches, has existed at heart
between Frenchmen and Englishmen
for over 400 years. Probably a month
ago three or four Frenchmen would have
stoutly denied that q lobster is a FISH, but
now any Gaul holding the opposite opin-
ion would be deemed q traitor to his
country. There is no doubt that France
will fight sooner than give up her sud
denly appreciated gathering of crusta-
ceans aleng the shores Of the island, and
there is little less doubt that the hardy
Observation-Disclosures will endeavor even by
force to prevent them from doing SO.
There has been bad blood between the
French fishermen and the islanders for
generations. The latter claim that the
right possessed by the detesoed foreigners
to Use a portion of their coast for the
purpose Of curing has kept the adjacent
~portion of the island from being settled,
as it otherwise would have been, that
the French rob and abuse the scanty
population, insult their women and defy
the authorities to prevent them from
doing as they like.
OF course the French deny all these
charges, but the hatred between the two
classes will inevitably result ip the shed.
ding Of blood there at no distant day.
The trainers of the treaty of Utrecht
could not foresee the future Importance
of the fisheries, but their inherent pre-
JUDGES might have taught them the dan
ger of a divided rule. The United States
may be congratulated that the much
talked of annexation is at present as i'm.
probable as it would be undesirable.

OF recent years a custom has arisen of
styling a marquis the ''most honorable"
inAtead Ct the "most NOBLE" which was
the prevailing mode. l have always
neld that the ''most noble is the correct
style, and I find that Mr.. Porny, in his
excellent work on "Heraidry," when
describing the coronet of a marquis, says:
This is to be un lerstood as the coronet
IF q real marquis, whose title is most
noble,' which ! mention lest any one
should be led into a mistake by not dis
iinguishing a real marquis, i. e., by cre-
alton, from a nominal marquis, i. e., the
eldest son of a duke; the latter is only
styled most honorable.'"-Notes and
