that any movement in the direction of inn

of Sutherland and unpleasant American

York, the vice chairman of the dinner,
also succeeded in exaggerating the %asinin-
ity with which nature endowed him in pro-
posing the health of the prince and prln-
cess Of Wales. Pages laudation of Albert
Edwards was so fulsome and enthusiastic
hat even the Englishmen present were
compelled to laugh at his most eloquent
periods. Consul General New proposed
the health of the guest of the evening in a
short and happy speech. He briefly re-
viewed Stanley's career and presented a
flag and shield, the gift of the diners to
their guest.

Unlucky In Love and speculation.

1t is now almost certain that the flight
of Broker E. ). Gait II from st. Paul was
due to an unfortunate love affair, which
drove him to desperation. He was engaged
a short time since to q wealthy belle resid-
ing near Central park, but the day for the
wedding had never been set, as Cattell's
convivial habits were q perpetual bar.
Finally, as he proved that he had no con-
troll over his passion for drink, the lac
broke the engagement. From that time
Cattell plunged into dissipation and spec
ulation and went rapidly to ruin. His
shortage is figured anywhere between
$50, COO and $40, 900, little of which is
connected with Walker & Co.'s business.
Cattell operated largely Oh the outside,
and incurred hsavy losses on his own &C.
count as a bucket shop broker. There is
no clue vet to his whereabonts.

Objections to Lord S%alisbury's Policy Of
InactlOn In Africa.

AlAAASJtOA LA
The London Chronicle is persistent in
its e%ndeavors to get Lord Salisbury iuto
immediate action, to the end of maintain
ing the rights of England in Africa, and
there is suspicion that its utterances are
inspired by some M closely associated
with the premier in official life. It is
pretty we'll known that Lord Salisbury's
policy of inaction in Africa is not shared
by all of his ministerial colleagues, and
popular opinion is slowly veerlng toward a
demand for o clearer explanation of the
governments reasons for playing into
G%ermany's hands, than has yet been given.
The passive policy of England has also at
tracted wide attention in Germany, and
emboldened the Berlin press to advise the
application of more vigor to the German
operations in Africa. The Berlin Post
processes to see infallible signs of the
early downfall of Lord Salishury's govern
ment, and declares that Germany is now
in q position of absolute independence of
British public opinion in regard to Africa.
In fact evidence is not lacking in any di-
rection to show that Germany does not
care a rap what the British may think of

More than a year ago o small dog came
to the house of Snowden Smith, q farmer
of Washington county, Ark, in the night
and caught a hog. In getting it off the
hog Smith was bitten on the finger and
also in the face. The hog died of rabies
and Smith went to Missouri for o mad
stone, hoping he would escape. Last
Monday a pain struck him in the finger
and went quickly to his face, and he at
once announced to his family that his
time had come, begging them to confne
him. He made hasty disposition of his
worldly affairs and reuignedly prepared
himself for the inevitable. After three
days of terrible suffering the end came,
