WASHINGTON, Nov. 10.-The Secretary
Of the Navy, in giving out reassuring
dispatch from Capt. Schley yesterday,
which states that no threats had been
made rega ding the Baltimore, took
pains TO announce that there was no
warlike significance in the unwonted &C
ii witty at the navy yards.
1t is not questioned, however, anon g
navy officials and others who have fol-
lowed the development of affairs that
the rumpus in South America is the
moving cause of the rapid repairs and
speedy construction now going on.
The Administration expects that the
Chilian government will bring the pres
ent negotiations to a satisfactory con-
clusion and has acted on that presump-
tion throughout.
Nevertheless it recognizes the fact that
the weakness of our naval transport at
the time the demand made for re-
paration was originally made through
Minister Egan told heavily against us
and gave the foreign minister of the pert
little republic to the South an oppor-
tunity to send back reply which could
hardly have been more saucy without
being warlike.
In view of this experience 1t is not in
tended that we shall be caught mapping
again, and if it should become necessary
to repeat the request there will be some
thing decidedly more impressive than a
navy on paper to convince the Chilians
of the impregnability of our position.
The immediate reason for haste lies in
the fact that the Inauguration of the
new government in Chill, which will
, mark the restoration of constitutional
functions in that distracted country,
| will take place in the middle of Decem-
ber. We shall wait until that time be-
fore sending another demand in case the
one already made fails to bring salts
factory response, because there is no de-
sire to place the responsibility for the
affront received by our sailors upon any
but fully responsible government.
BY the middle of December there will
be such a force in the harbor of Val
paraiso and on the way that the reply
to any demand it may be necessary to
make cannot but be prompt and exceed
/ ingly civil.
| 1t is not believed here that there is any
! present intention of ordering the Mian-
! tonomoh away from the vi cinity of New
| York. That boat is already in commits
sion which entails large expense and,
! simply as matter of economy, she
| should be put to sea at once The Navy
| Department, however, are watching
carefully for the interests of our Allan
tic seaboard, and they see in the Man
tonomoh the most effective engine OF
protection which can be made available.

The various theories and pointers" for
bass catching by bait would fill book.
Let me suggest from experience a few
some, it may be, trite, all perhaps worth
less. Use always light but well tested
tackle. A double smell at the end, back
ed by single smell, with the central knot
carefully looked to, is as effective as a
costly leader. Use at least one drop line
under the boat, where bass, whimsical as
ever, will sometimes bite when they W ill
not touch the outlying rods. In playing
bass with the hand line Il thing requir-
ing the utmost dizziness, albeit some an
glers in ignorance dcride it-use thumbs
and forefingers with extremely rapid
overland motion and with the line loose
enough to let the fish make his runs. Fish
with largest hope in waters which are
rising after sudden rain; next in white
caps. Use only bow anchors and play
with deep barb, short shank. small wire
and large curve, which, by its broader
hold, more than compensates for its
sharper cut under strain. Lead lightly
or not at all. For the rest, bass fishing
is, in the main, the cultivation of the Wal
tonian virtues Of patience, persistence
and good temper Clarence Deming in

Several months ago, the doctors an
nouuced that this was a great year for
babies. Children have come in greater
numbers since the first day of 1891 than
during any equal period for some years
past. And now that Mrs Cleveland has
confirmed the fashion, the practice of
''having babies'' will be followed by all
who want to keep in the swim. Little
Ruth's first cry as she opened her eyes on
this queer world was notice to all of
the 400 and the 100 and the upper ten that
babies were u necessary part of every
married woman's parapheralia. Mother
hood as a fashion has been on the decline
among the so called best people. So far
has the decline gone that procreation is
now carried on by the worst classes
that is, by the very poor who can least
afford the luxury. But the tide has turn
ed. Mrs Cleveland is proud of her crown
and now every woman sees quite clearly
that she is not quite woman until she is
a mother-that is, until she is in the fash
ion. For once Dame Nature and Dame
Fashion are on good terms.-[St. Louis

Rev Mr. Delzells Temperance Sermon.


Rev Mr. Delzell's temperance sermon,
Sunday, was based upon Isaiah XVIII,
10, "Precept upon precept," etc. His
subject was the saloon against the home.
He found modern life to be not all right,
as optimists claimed, for Death and Hell
doomed up in sulphurous fury On every
street corner. The Gospel did not come
to reform society and make it decent and
respectable solely, but to save the indi-
vidual soul from sin and death by regen-
GRAFTON. Therefore the saloon was to be
reached, not by reformatory measures,
but by the new birth of each soul. The
war of the saloon, protected by law, on
the home was pictured. There is no
peace in heaven or on earth for the home
of drunkenness, riot and penury. Break
up the home and everything is corrupted.
The overthrow of Prohibition in Iowa
was predicted and Mr. DelzeIl did not ex-
pect the defeat of the saloon until the
second coming of Christ. Intemperance
cut down Babylon, Greece, Rome, Ephra-
i'm. AS well try to teach gate post as
a man full of rum. He bid God speed to
every good work, but looked to the pow
er of God in the heart as the only sure
remedy for the saloon and he that be-
lieveth shall not make haste. Judgment
is certain to overtake evil and the evil

The Gulf Stream in History.

Crossing the ocean once, our captain
said, There is an iceberg somewhere
near. know it by the mereury's falling
and many other indications" We had
no inkling Of it, but he tackled the ship
always with the iceberg in mind, though
not in view. At last the sun came out,
the fog dispersed and we saw the spec
trail invader from the Arctic seas, gleam-
ing, savage, portentous. The captain
told US what its fate would be. It would
soon enter the Gulf stream and, faring
on, would be invisibly honeycombed
through and through, though still maxi
ing formidable appearance above the
water line. But il would grow gradual
ly less and at last in Whirling motion
would disappear in a vortex Of It's own
creation.
Since then, it has come to me many
times that from the Arctic seas of un-
written ages, when victorious warriors
made themselves drunk, using the skulls
of the vanquished as their goblets, the
liquor traffic has been moving down upon

than the iceberg that saw. But out of
sight, beneath the water line, it is hon.
eycombed already, for there is a Gulf
stream in history that carries Summer to
every shore it visits. 1t sets from the
warm heart of Christ; it flows from the
Bibles open page and, by its mild and
steady power this Whitened monster of q
savage age has become disintegrated far
more deeply than We think. Il is even
now tottering to its fail and shall ere
many generations disappear under the

land and Eastern States line, killed in
the wreck near Putnam, last week, was
known here and boarded with A. S. Tut
tie at Hawleyvile, where half dozen or
more men of the express crews have
boarded. He had been an engineer for
several years and his fireman was Gerald
Fitzgerald, who was making his first trip
as fireman on this run as substitute for
Michael Flynn. The remains of Engin-
eer Tabor were removed to Manchester,
N. H., where he had relatives. The
smashup was on a sharp curve on down
grade near East Thompson, where east
bound trains run at high speed to get up
the heavy grade near Putnam. 1t is said
that only for an instant could the wreck
be seen before striking it. The primary
cause of the accident was using both
tracks to despatch west bound trains.
