which has done 30 much for this country.


 The Suez canal has brought about at least one result which was not expected by the projectors of it, and that is the intro duction of sharks from the Red Sea into the Mediterranean. These undesirable monsters were not slow to avail themselves of the outlet so kindly provided for them, and they have been emigrating by way of the canal in instantly increasing numbers for good many years. They are so plen- tiful now in the Adriatic that bathing is no longer safe, and a general demand has arisen for the abatement of the evil. Un- fortunately, it is a good deal easier to ask for remedy than to find one. A shark caught at Plume the other day is said to have weighed nearly four tons.
 Dr. John Hall, in newspaper letter from England, says: fOn another point a cautionary word may be given by one who knows little of both sides of the Allan tic. I can best put it, perhaps, in the language of lady, true lady, too, a comparative stranger to me, who was in- troduced, and in reply to my question, Where is your homer said: "Well, it is America. and hope to go to it again, but my daughter married in Europe, and, like most European marriages and then she paused, with quivering lip and fearful eyes and then added: That's the sad req son am here.

THE EUROPEAN wAR CLOUD.

Everybody wants to know if there is going to be a war in Europe soon. There fig only one man in the world who can tell and he is M. de Blowitz, the Paris cores pondent of the London Times, and the friend of kings, emperors, princes and prime ministers. He has taken a look around him and has come to the conclu- sion that, under existing conditions, the only two nations that are in position to begin offensive warfare are Germany and France, but it is very much more for the interest of both of these countries to re- main at peace than to attempt the hazards of war. It is his opinion that if war breaks out between France and Germany it will result in the downfall of the French republic, whether France emerges from the struggle victorious or defeated If the former, the successful general would all most be forced to establish dictatorship; if the latter, the republic would become so discredited that it could no longer exist Germany has little to gain by the exten- sion of her territory, while German de- feat would be attended by more or less complete dissolution of the existing inn perial system. In spite of great deal of belligerant talk, NJ. De Blowitz feels con- vineed that the governments of these two nations will have to be put to severe test before they would think it advisable to declare war. The dark spot in the diplo- matic horizon he finds in the succession to
 the Austrian throne. If the present En- peror dies, his successor, in the natural
 order of descent, will be altogether unequal to the task of keeping together this hetero-
 genous empire, and in the grabbing for spells the European countries would get to fighting.
 This is certainly a plausible description of the situation, and what De Blowit2 | doesn't know about it nobody knows.

TROPHIES OF THE CHASE.

shown at the German Exhibition.
 "The London Field" of July has the following interesting account of hunting trophies in the German Exhibition, now open at Earls court. London:
 In the first room the place of honor is assigned to bust of the duke of Saxe- Co., burg -Gotha, behind and around which are grouped various trophies, conspicuous among them being some fine antlers of German red deer, with a few heads and skins of elk. Few German sportsmen of the present day have had the privilege of shooting elk in their own country. It is now rare animal ther e, and is only to be met with fn the crown lands of Ibenhorst in East Prussia, where it is strictly preser ed. In this wild, wooded and wet tract of country bordering the river Memel, with. out roads, and traversed only by royal keepers and foresters, the elk in limited numbers finds congenial home. But it is jealously guarded, and none but princes or noblemen of high rank would be privi- legged to stalk and shoot one. None have been met with in Austria for about 13O years, although in the winter of 1S87-'SS a solitary one, believed to have wandered from Lithuania, was shot in Galicia. The identity of this animal with the American l moose is extremely probable, if not abso- | lutely certain, and their distribution is re- | markedly alike, reaching the Artic coast in both continents, and extending south ward to the same isotherm.
 Compared with the fine heads of moose | rx5hiah fp ho af the Amarlfan Y- hibition of 1887, particularly those exhibi- | ted by MT Bierstadt and Otho Shaw, none of the German specimens are remarkable | for size or massiveness and one or two of
 them are evidently those of young animals. | The skins, which are stretched out on the
 walls, look somewhat lighter in color than those we have seen from North America,
 but this may perhaps be due to long expos | ure to light. At any rate, it is interesting
 to compare the heads figured in the illus
 trated catalogue of the American hunting | trophies of 1887 with those now hang ing on the walls in the German collect
 ion.
 German red deer horns are celebrated

 tints and such massive beams as in thos'

 although it is evident that they are deter | iorating in proportion as rifles 1mprov'
 and ambitious sportsmen increase in mum
 Der, there are still plenty of German an
 tiers which throw the best Scotch head

 To form an idea of the splendid animal which, couple of centuries ago, roame' wild in the forests of Germany and Aus tria, one has only to turn to Doctor Mey
