OUR liberality in wages gives us the
choice of the most accomplished cooks
from all other countries, and we draw
the best particularly from Paris. We
have too, local food and game pro-

obtain in the larger towns the
rural regions and interior small
places are not so favored While
one can order and eat in New
York. New Orleans, Chicago, Denver,
and other cities that might be men,
toned a better dinner than possibly
can be procured or produced in Paris,
the general cookery throughout the
country is simply abominable. In this
respect the "blarsted Britisher' is iu-
finitely ahead of us. There is not a
village, hardly a hamlet in all Eng
land that does not serve to the tourist

chops or steak and capital cup OF tea.
This is because the English people
know how to best serve their supplies.
In this country. with a greater variety,
especially of vegetables an almost alb
original ignorance of even the elements
of good cookery spoils what nature so
profGsely provides.

The MarItIIne Canal.

The annual report OF the Maritime Canal

costly and necessary preparatory work has
been done during the year in the construc-
ton of shops. railroad tracks and harbor
piers. and break waters, and that the work
OF canal construction had made some sue

canal, connecting the waters OF the At
lantic aud Pacific oceans, and giving to us
short water communication between our
ports unOn those two great seas should be
speedily constructed. and at the smallest
practca! limit Of cost.
IL this work is to be promoted by the
usual financial methods and without the
aid OF this government, the expenditures,
IN It's lnterest-bearng securities and
stocks, will probably be twice the actual
cost. Every dollar of the bonds and stock
OF the company should represent a dollar
expended IN the Legitimate ana economical
prosecution Ot the work. This is only pos

OF the United States government. Such a
guaranty would secure the ready sale at

Our daughters are less ready to
submit even to maternal interference
than they used to be, and are probably
less in need of it. The sell reliance
of tho American woman is plant of
very rapid growth. Its successive
stages OF development may raise some
new social problems, but they certain
ly eliminate not few old ones. The
kindly helpfulness of the mother-in-
law survives but her vexatious fussi-
ness and her rooted distrust of the SON
ln-law are passing away. She may
not be always so proud of the distinc-
ton of being a grandmother as she
used to be, but she is much more will
ing to leave her daughter to solve foc
herself the problem of maternity So
possibly, the world loses something by
the mitigation of the mother in Jaw
some of the benefits of garnered expe-
rience and of the traditional discipline
OF married life. But there is more
sweetness if there is less light. The
mother-in-law played her part for CEN
turles in the old accepted way. and is
doubtless doing it still in societies less
progressive than ours But here she
has definitely cut loose from the past
and. for better or worse has elected
TO go her own way leaving her chill

we do not see justice always done in

down all their thoughts on paper, and
set down also all things of conscience

On the 10th of October an event occurred
in Valparaiso, so serious and tragic in its
circumstances and results as to very Justly

the part OF this government. A consider
able number of the sailors OF the United
States steamship, Baltimore. then in the
harbor of Valparaiso being upon shore
leave and unarmed, were assaulted by
armed men nearly simultaneously
in different localities In the city.
One petty officer was killed outright and
seven or eight seamen were seriously
wounded, one of whom has since died. So
savage and brutal was the assault that sew
eral OF our sailors received more than two,
aud one as many as eight stab wounds. An
Investigation of the affair was promptly
made by board Of officers OF the Baltl-
more, and their report shows that these as.
saults were unprovoked, that our men
were conducting themselves in n peaceable
and orderly manner. and that some of the
police of the city took part in the assault
and used their weapons with fatal effect.
while few others with some well-dispoSed
citizens. endeavored TO protect our meE.
Thirty-six of our sailors were arrested and
some OF them. while being taken 10 prison,
were cruelty beaten aud maltreated. The

Determinations against any product of the

Germany, Denmark, Italy, Austria and

The removal of these restrictions in
