AFTER bitterly condemning the tardy
African policy of England, Stanley now
has the manliness to confess that the later
plans Of Salisbury and the adjustment he
has made with Germany are wise, and that
the policy of England most lately adopted
has secured to her all she can desire in
Africa, and has made the conquest Of the
Soudan but matter of time, and that not
long in years. As matters are now ex-
planned, there can lie no doubt about the
soundness of Stanley's statement. England
has all she ought to have in Africa, and
SO has Germany. Between them the two
nations can stamp out slavery and reduce
the equatorial region to the domination of
civilization.

PRINCE GEORGE has been sent upon
cruise on the high seas to cure him of his
love for the daughter of an Earl, whom he
must not marry, though the young people
are mutual in their love. All this because
George is the son of Prince who is heir
apparent to the throne of England, and is
therefore himself in the line of succession.
Thus the monarchical system sacrifices
hearts for politics and wrecks true love,
the basis of all domestic happiness, that a
foolish decree of royalist fashion may be
kept inviolate. How vastly superior is
the situation of a young man who is a
simple citizen of a republic and not ham
pered in the choice of his wife by any
manner Of political complications. 1t
may be very fine thing to be Prince
and to be able to boast of blue blood but
what are princely orders and royal honors
if the heart is filed only with the ashes of
defeated love?

HOW WORDS ARE MADE.

Nothing more amusing concerning lexi-
geography has been sent to print OF late
than the exposure the Critic makes of a
laughable blunder of which a number of
the foremost photographers have been
guilty. 1t appears that the word phan-
formation is to be found in Webster, Wor-
cester, The Imperial, and Casselrs Ency-
clopedic Dictionary. They all define the
word as (n.) appearance as a phantom;
illusion" 1t is marked in Webster as
"rare and obsolete" Two of them credit
the word to Pope. Two quote no author.
Now comes the Critic and explains how
sadly the dictionary makers were led astrav.
1t says:
The source of this word is a book entitled
"Philology Of the English Language" published
in 1870, by Richard Paul Jodrell, as sort CT
supplement- to Johnsons Dictionary. Jodrell
had curious way of writing phrases as single
words, without even hyphen to indicate their
came citysolictor; home acquaintance, home
acquaintance. He remarks in his preface that
1t was necessary to enact laws for myself"
and he appears to have done SO with great
vigor. OF course he followed his law when
he transcribed the following passage from Pope:
These solemn vows and holy offerings paid
To all the phantom nations of the dead
Odyssey, Y, 627.
Phantom nations became phantomnations and
the great standards of the English language"
were enriched with new word !"
The Critic should have added that three
of the foremost dictionaries of the day,
Nuttalfs, Stormonth's and The Century,
have not fallen into the errer of the others.

ISAAC ii. BROMLEY, well-known news
paper man, met Sullivan, the bruiser,
in Washington the other day. A friend,
without asking Mr.. Bromley's consent, in
troduced Sullivan to the journalist, who
refused the extended hand of the slogger.
Whereupon Sullivan asked. "Why." To
this Bromley replied, "You are bully,
and | do not care to have anything to do
with DULLES" Thereupon the woman
beaten and face-puncher skunk away from
the presence of the newspaper man, like
the coward that he is. If ever he had an
invitation to "strike out" it was at that
moment, but the cold gray eye of the jour
nalist cowed him. Bromley is not an ath-
lete; in the hands of Sullivan he would
have been as child, practically helpless.
But the moral courage of the one man
was superior to the physical strength of
the other. 1t was clear case of triumph
by mind over matter. If few more brave
men would manifest their contempt and
adherence for the Sullivan stripe of fell
lows, in similar manner, we should hear
a great deal less of laudation of sloggers.
The man who feels honored by the ac-
quaintance of such man as Sullivan is
not very far removed from the level of
that criminal, and would place himself on
par with him if he dared to face the con-
tempt of society. Some such brave men
as Bromley are to be found in the Wash
ington Athletic Club, where members the
other day arose and entered vigorous pro-
test against Sullivan being invited to the
privileges of the club. So too, in Chicago
the action of the managers of the chief
athletic club of the city was repudiated.
They arranged to give Sullivan a recep-
ton, but the membership declined to ratify
the proposition, and Sullivan was not re-
ceived. A few more vigorous examples of
this order and the slogging fraternity will
find its true level If the newspaper press
would manifest as much sensibility as did
the Washington and the Chicago clubs.
and refuse to blow Sullivans trumpet for
him, he and all the rest of his kind would
sink out of public sight.

THERE cannot be so much smoke as
there is over this census matter without
some genuine fire behind it. 1t is reported
from half the cities in the Union that there
is dissatisfaction with the manner in which
the population has been enumerated. 1t was
precisely what we anticipated when it was
announced that the reward of the enumer-
ators was to be but two cents name. On
no such basis could uniformly faithful
work be expected. 1t is unlikely that the
census of 1890 will go down in history as
one to rely upon in any statistical calcula-
tons demanding reasonable accuracy.

THE muscular Methodist Bishop who
the other day pulled off his coat and
soundly thrashed two bruisers who way
laid him with the intention of slogging
him, is worthy of statue. The Bishop
had preached plainly against the crimes of
the men, and this so angered them that
they determined to take revenge "out of his
hide" But the Bishop appears to have
been trained in his collegiate life in the
art of self-defense, and it served him to
good purpose. Here is to be seen the dis
tinction between legitimate boxing train
ing and the bruising and slogging bar
barity of the day. Every man should
know how to use the weapons of nature
for his defense, but it is not necessary, in
order to impart this knowledge, that we
should maintain the brutal slogging craze
of the hour.

Take a Rest

When you are so tired as to feel "ready
to DROP sit down, comb your hair and
change your shoes, says an exchange.
This will rest the head and feet and give
new strength for the work which at house
cleaning or moving time refuses to be
postponed. That lying down ten minutes
will rest one much more than sitting down
has to be reiterated often for the benefit
of those ambitious women who sometimes
scorn to rest in this way during the day
time, and others who fear that it viii be
known to their discredit if they so indulge
themselves.

THE expose of the ''Gun Wa" Chinese
doctor humbug, in Milwaukee, is amusing.
1t is little ahead Of anything of the Chi
nese order we have had in California. We
have all known that the Chinaman is mild
and bland when occasion requires, but the
manner in which he has operated by the
aid OF American confede-ates upon the
people of the East, in the matter of treat
ing their physical ills, shadows the
shrewdest tricks the ''Little Brown Man.
has ever played upon Csiifcrnians. In the
Milwaukee scheme Chinaman rugged out

skillful physician. Two white men aided
him, one acting as interpreter, pretend

liquids, to be dispensed by the Qhinaman
and they were advertised far anil wide as
great remedial and curative agents. The
"doctor" received his patients, ans through

PRESIDENT WARREN, of the Boston
University, has given Harvard the cruel
est cut. He has written and published a
letter on the subject OF reducing the COL
legiate term to three years, as adopted by
Harvard. He does not object to this so
far as Harvard is concerned, but proposes
that all other colleges conferrIng degrees
shall announce that at the end of three
years in their term, they will confer the
A. B. degree (Harv.), but that to all
students who remain full course the gen.
uine and full A. B. degree will be given.
This is too severe. DIR. Warren assumes
that four years are necessary, no matter
what the system OF the institution, as to its
course ofstudy. If Harvard, as we assume,
is its intention, cuts some OF the dry rot
out Of It's course, substitutes principles and
training for stuffing with data, its three
years course will be more profitable to its
graduates than four years of the former
system.

IT is said that there is no sincerity in
the introduction of the bill in Congress to
appropriate S250,000 for tomb and mon
ument for the perpetuation, by such memo
rial, of the memory of General Grant. 1t
is charged that the bill was introduced at
tine suggestion of Mayor Grant, of New
York, as spur to prick the sides of New
York pride. If that was its purpose, it
has signally failed, and Congress is now
placed in the position that it must appro-
pirate the money or go before the world as
refusing monument to one of the most
distinguished of modern soldiers and patri-
OTIS. In this connection it should be men
toned that the keenest thrust yet made in
the matter was the dispatch sent from
Richmond, Va, to the author of the bill,
Withdraw your BILL The Confederate
soldiers will build monument to Grant,
to be located here, to be inscribed: To a
generous foe, by his late adversaries.' "
However, nothing of this kind will touch
New York's sensibilities-she is perfectly
willing to forfeit her word, and allow some
one to take the job of building Grants
monument off her hands
