A divorce cap" to Distinguish
ALIIA Iii


Her Wild hip.
A San Francisco lady writing to the
Chronicle is anxious for some distin-
gushing mark to distinguish widows
and suggest for the one Divorce Cap.
1t might be pertinent to remark that
there might be two ki1ds-one trimmed
with weeds, the other with grass. This
lady says: Il think there ought to be
some kind OF a divorce cap. A nan
does not need one. He always looks
single. But il some inventive milliner
will think up design for hat that
will permit you to understand whether
a woman is a spinster, married or di-
vorced she will save men great deal
of trouble. The most trying thing for
a man to find out about a woman he
has fallen in love with is a husband.
He can stand almost anything else and
still hope. But the pretty widow with
the child always dresses the child up in
way to attract attention. There S
something about the contrast between
the two and the way she treats the
child that seems to say, This poor
child has no father. And man, poor
sympathetic man, with his heart drawn
to youthful innocence, thinks he is
catching the mother by giving candy
to the infant The mother, bless her
dear. unsuspecting, frank, ingenious
heart, is catching him and saving the
expense of the family bonbons. Pity
Is akin to love, is it? 1t seems to me
that love is akin to pity. Anyway,
men don't pity women when they don't
love them, but they love them very
often when they don't pity them. 9th

BALAKLAVA

The little town of Balaklavs lies be.
meath sterile mountain on the shores
of the beautiful bay which Is the only
Aarbor on the south coast of the Cri-
nea where, owing to the rocks rising
suddenly from the sea, the largest ships
can anchor close to the shore. The
Crimea played a considerable part in
ancient history, and Balaklavs, which,
from its position and surroundings,
must always have been a place of i'm
portance, is supposed to be one OF the
ports visited by Ulysses during his
wanderings. The Greeks, the denoese,
the Turks, and the Russians have all
held the town In turn, but it gains its
chief celebrity from its occupation by
the Allied armies during the Crimean
War. The Allies advanced upon the
town on September 26th, 1854, and on
October 25th, following, some II, 600
Russians made an attack upon the Brit
ish Army. The battle was famous for
its brilliant cavalry charges, the heavy
cavalry under General Scsrlett, and
the Light Brigade (the "Six Hun
dred'D, under Lord Cardigan, making
the engagement one of the most cell
ebrated in history. On March 22d,
1855, the garrison of Sebastopol made
a most vigorous sortie, and were re-
pulsed with great loss outside Bal
aklava.

How It's Done.
From West Randolph Herald. |

A citizen of New York city can take
his daily paper at breakfast and read an
account Of base ball game at Sidney,
Australia, the afternoon before. How
does he get the news? 1t is sent across
the continent of Australia and under
water to Java, and then by way of
Singapore, Penang, Madras, Bombay,
Suez, Alden, Alexandria, Malta, Glib
ralter, Liverpool, Ireland, Casno, and on
to New York, a distance of over 1000
miles, and at a cost of about 81 so a
word. When one considers the feat he
hardly knows at which to be astonished,
the greatness of the mind that could
achieve it or the littleness of the mind
that could delight in applying such pow
er to such uses.

The Panama Wreck.
From Manchester Union. ]


There is little enough reason to expect
that the Panama canal will ever be any
nearer completion than it was when the
bubble burst and work was suspended.
The great scheme was inaugurated with a
grand display of financial fireworks. The
name of De Lesseps gave eclat to the en-
terprise, and capital flowed into the cof-
fers of the company at marvellous rate.
1t likewise flowed out. Never, perhaps,
was there reckless extravaganza on a
larger scale in purely business under
taking. The officers were numerous and
high salaried, and their quarters were
luxurious as money could make them.
There was little haggling with contrac-
tors over terms, and when the crash
came it was found that millions had been
squandered with comparatively insight
ficant results. A ditch was dug part
way across the isthmus, but the problem
presented by the Chagres river-one day
torrent, another scarcely more than a
dried water cOurse-was never solved.
1t does not, indeed, appear even to have
been honestly met. When money ceasde
to come in, the work stopped, of course,
and the ditch began filling up with silt
from the hillsides, while costly ma
chinery, representing hundreds of thou
sands of dollars, lay along its banks,
rusting and falling to pieces. 1t would
be almost miracle to restore public con-
fidence so that more money could be in
duced to follow the millions already lost.
Nevertheless, come little interest at
taches to the report of Lieut.. Bonaparte
Wyse, sent to negotiate with the Colon
bian government for renewal of con-
cessions and to make new estimates. His
plans are bold. like everything connected
with this disastrous attempt to connect
the two oceans. The idea of a sea-level
canal was abandoned years ago, and
Lieutenant Wyse now proposes the
creation of single central lake by means
Of two dams, one closing the valley of
the Chagres at Bohio, the other the val
ley of the Rio Grande at Pedro Miguel,
each lock to have mean fall of little
over 35 feet. The lake would have a
superficies of 22,500 acres, length of
nearly 20 miles, and an altitude of 100
feet above the level of the sea. The first
year, should enough money ever be OBJ
tanned to commence with, would be en-
ployed in putting the machinery and
material already in existence in working
order, in beginning work on the great
cut, in continuing the preparatory
studies, draining, etc. The second year
would be spent in deepening the Culebra
cut, dredging on the Atlantic side, re-
moving the silt on the Pacific side, rails
ing the proposed level of the Chagres,
and arranging the conduits for supply
ing or carrying off water. The subse-
quent years would be spent in excava-
ton, the construction of locks, and the
excavation of the reservoirs intended to
receive the overflow. The opinion is ex-
pressed that five years would be suffi-
Gent to complete the work. The total
cost is estimated at 6O0.000,00O francs,
but that does not matter. One sum
could be raised about as easily as any
other, for the Panama project is dead.

The Nations Two Great Debts.
from Manchester Journal. |

Among all the orations delivered on
Memorial day, none was more interest
ing or more appropriate than that Of
Major Mckinley at Canton, o. "When
the war was over this government had
two great debts. One was to its cred
itors who had loaned their money in its
hour of necessity, thus expressing conf
dence in the ultimate victory of the
Union army. The other debt was its
obligation to the men who had saved it
and made it possible to pay its money
debts. The one could be computed.
The other was beyond human computa-
ton" OF these two great debts the
government first undertook the payment
Of that due to the patriotic men who
had supplied it with money when money
was most needed. The soldiers were
willing this should be done. They re-
sisted, as a class, every proposal Of re-
pudiation made by the Democratic party,
and have steadily upheld the policy Of
honesty advocated by the Republican
party. Their trust has not been in vain.
The money debt is almost paid. 1t was
reduced by more than 81 ,000, 900 during
the last decade. Nor has the Republi-
can party forgotten the debt the country
owes to those who gave, not money, but

table, showing the nations expenditures
for the public debt and for pensions dur
ing two periods, 20 years apart:

Total. 1892, 900 900
The amount of money paid on the two
debts combined will be less in 1892 than
it was in 1867, and yet the nation, in
those 20 years, has grown in wealth and
in population more than so per cent.
Such figures as these should silence all
carping critics who cry out against our
monster pension roll,' and who accuse
the Republican party of reckless extrava-
gance because, having paid the debt we
owed to the men who gave money to the
government in its hour of need, we are
now Dayiup-sO far as mOneV can nav it
the debt we owe to the men who, in that
same hour, gave to the country that far
more precious gift themselves.
