WHAT THE PAPERS SAT-.

The Times, referring TO the death Of the
Duke Of Clarence. says that the heart Of the
nation goes forth to the grisf-bowed parents
and to his weeping bride. The tragedy, the
Tunes adds, is deepened In intensity by the
light shadow which announced its approach.
The Erening Nescs remarks that the queens
advanced years render her susceptible to the
sorrow and that the death Of her possible sue
cessor has been the most severe blow she has
felt since the death of the prince consort The
affection, according to the Ne,cs, is unique in
Its heaviness upon the parents of the dead
prince and CRUEL IN its significance to the sor-
rowing bride.
The 81 James Gazette says that the sense that
tears are mortal things was never more deeply
felt. The same paper adds that il would be
sycophancy to say that the hapless prince was
regarded with enthusiastic devotion or with
intense personal regard by the majority of the
people. THE Duke Of Clarence aud Avon
dale. the 81. James CARTE continues twas OF
retiring disposition and lived in the shadow
OF the throne and the public knew but little of
MN. There is reason to believe, however, that
the nation has lost promising prince"
lhe Gazette, in conclusion, joins with other
newspapers in expressing the opinion that the
prince death has not any political significance

THE QUEEN PRosTRATED.
Tho Duke Of Connaught and Strathearn,
uncle OF Prince Albert Victor and personal
sid-de-camp to the queen, arrived at Ports
mouth at noon from Osborne He travelled on
the royal yacht Albert and Victor, which en-
tered Portsmouth harbor with the ensign at
half-mast. AS the royal yacht got abeam of the
flag ship Victory the latter's ensign was lowered
to half-niast and this movement was followed
by all the other ships in the harbor The Duke
OF Connaught Immediately landed and took q
special train and proceeded at once to Sand

blow that has fallen upon her through the
death OF her grandson and did not feel equal TO

POOR PRINCESS MAI.
A dispatch from Sandringham says that when
the last moments came the Prince and Princess
of Wales, the Prince and Princess of Teck and
the Princess Victoria Mary, commonly known
as the Princess May. the betrothed of the diving
prince, were grouped at the bedside. The
Princess May had passed sleepless night, but
she became herself with courage in face OF her
terrible affection. Her eyes, red with weeping
and the heaving breast told of her broken
heart The Princess OF Wales WAS apparently
overwhelmed by the sense of her privatIon.

It is evident that man who will seri-

communication with them at least as
satisfactorily as he could with another
man who was confined TO an entirely
different language. My dog, who has
had no special training, understands
some half dozen Of my gestures, and
himself uses the turning aside of
the head to indicate dissent, accom-
panied often by plain look of DISCUS.

to deprecate punishment, turns on his
back to express submission, sticks mp his
tail-the warrior brandishes his weapon
or waves his flag; the dog has noweapon
by way Of defiance, lowers it for shame
or alarm.
That turning on the back, by tho way,
is well understood among dogs as a
gesture Of surrender. If two strange
dogs meet on the street and one shows
fight, if the other turns on his back he
willnot, as a rule, be molested. Cor.

The line is seven miles long. A span of
stout mules draw the car up over the
road. There is nothing singular about
that, but it comes in on the return trip.

way, although the track does not look
like it. So when the car starts back the

It is the seven miles of street railway
that connect the two.
"The way they get the mules aboard
is this: There is little truck under the
car, and it is pulled out becoming an
adjunct 10 the regular passenger depart
ment. The moment the truck is slid

And soon draw near.
The whispering leaves repeat
The story they Oft have heard,
For oh, there's nothing so sweet
As the song OF the bird

Only a faint Cool COor
But some one calls out a-ne1r:

forms Of telephone, of which a few were
seen in the infancy of the invention.
The central office is put in a small
closet or inclosure at some convenient
point, and is operated by a boy who has
nothing else to do.
There are a dozen or so connections
according to the size of the installation
and the needs of the office, This ex.
