The capture by the French off the
African coast Of an English vessel
loaded with improved arms and am.
munition for the Dahomeyan army
calls attention to one international
evil that in its way is as vicious as
the slave trade or the sale of liquor
to the African savages. When one
Christian nation is engaged in such a
COmmendable war of defense and con-
quest as that Of the French against
Dahomey. it is outrageous for rival
nations to supply the natives with
modern means of defense. Not only
does it lift up the hand of civilization
against the civilized, but it needless
ly prolongs bloody struggle, in
creases the loss of life, and in the end
makes the fate of the conquered
harder than it would have been
otherwise. 1t is barbaroHs and indie.
fensible, and ought to be put under
the ban of an international agree
ment such as was framed by the
Brussels congress. Until it is, un-
scrupulous traders may be expected
to engage in the dastardly business
for the large profits in it.

AS THE result of the recent exam.
ination at Fort Leavenworth, Kan,
nine nOn-commissioned officers Of the
army were recommended for appoint.
ment as second lieutenants. The
plan OF the present administration.
by which non-commissioned officers
who have had two years service can
win shoulder-staaps by passing a
rigid examination, has been highly
successful, because it has had the
effect to draw into the army many
young men Of ability and education
with a special aptitude for military
service. Such an influx Of character
and ability has elevated the morals
of the regular army. Hereafter all
enlisted men who have served faith
fully. whether warrant officers or not,
can take the examinations.

The public hears very little about
volapuk, the so-called universal Ian.
guage, nowadays, but, according to a
recent account by writer who has
kept its progress in view. over 200
societies for its extension are in ex-
lstence, 1000 persons are engaged in
teaching it, its grammar has been
published in twenty-one languages.
and the last edition of the dictionary
contains over 20, words. Two or
more reviews are published in it, and
1t is claimed to have several hundred
thousand adherents. Notwithstand.
ing this, it is in the highest degree
improbable that volapuk, or, as it is
now briefly called, "vp," will ever
come into general use as an inter-
national tongue. The writer who
gives the facts relating to- its progress
comedies this, and makes the sensible
and practical suggestion that English
be adopted as a common language and
studied in all foreign countries, not
with view OF substituting it for the
native speech, but as a means of
communication with other peoples.
French was once the court language
In European countries, and was per-
haps In more general use for business
purposes in civilized nations than any
other, but English is now the most
widely diffused by far, and is said by
lnguists to be much more easily
learned than either German or French.
though this is contrary to the popu-
lar Impression. Probably English
will. in the natural courseof events
become the accepted international
language, but that desirable end
might be FASTENED by systematic Of.
tort and agitation Of tho subject

The fact recently brought to pub.
lie attention again that Hon. Samue
j. Randall, the late well-knowr
Pennsylvania Democratic Congress
man. was worth less than 81 900 wher
he died after years of faithful public
service, is remarkable commentary
upon American public men, and es.
pecially upon Mr.. Randall. Though
drawing IS, 600 a year for many years
before his death, he was unable to
save anything owing to the expensive
standard Of living at Washington
and the cost of election expenses.
Such a fact is hardly an inducement
for the honest young American to
enter public life unless he already be
well-to-do.

JOHN HOEY's death was to have
been expected. For forty years man
of affairs, his sudden displacement
from high business position under
painful circumstances affected seri.
ously his entire existence. As Shy
lock says: "You take my house when
you do take the prop that doth sus-
tain my house." Disheartened by the
loss of his long-cOntinued grip upon
commercial life, the noted express
man relaxed his hold upon everything,

result.

THE execution of the Lebel rifle.
now used by the French, is reported
TO be something wonderful as well as
dreadful, as in Dahomey the bullets
passed through forest trees and killed
Dahomeyans behind them. Our Gov
ernment will soon have a rifle equal
to the Lebel. When such arms be-
come general, it seems inevitable
that nations will be forced to put
themselves upon a peace basis.

Travelling in Europe Alone.

A sensible woman, who has explored section after section of this country, has planned tour for this vacation for which she will take only knapsack strapped over the shoulder. Provided with mackintosh cloak and hood and thick soled shoes, she delays no party on account of the weather, while the spirit lamp she always carries in small box has helped cheer the rest frequently after tiresome tramp. No one super fluous article does she put into that knapsack. When the length of the trip demands, trunk is forwarded to some halting place. When the party consists of only two or three women exploring expeditions should be confined to the main roads, avoiding bypaths, however interesting their appearance,
 When rooms can be engaged ahead it adds to the feeling of safety to do so, as nothing is more discouraging than to find ones self in strange place with poor accommodations. It is a mistake also to think because one is woman and alone that one must travel first class, which is very apt to be duller and more monotonous than second class Brooklyn Eagle

point.rs for Women Voters.

1 have q small opinion of a woman who only controls one ballot, unless, in- deed, her acquaintance is limited to ono man, then of course she has done her best. And must confess the woman voter does not evoke my admiration as does the woman who is not visible at the polls, but who, as the darkies say, Hays low and chews poke root" and pulls wires. The small hand that controls the keys of typewriter or of piano or even the heart of man is a stronger power in politics.t than twenty voters.
 We reek Tn politics nowadays. and if there was only some soap made guar anteed to wash them so that like the sinners they might be winter than snow, there would be great demand for 1t. However, we are having torchlight pro sessions, and each one of us feels that great glow of enthusiasm that is only evoked by transparency lighted by two tallow dips and band playing the "Star Spangled Banner" To the real patriot it doesn't make much difference in whose interest this procession goes-she, the female patriot, feels that it is for some good cause, and she stands on the street risking pneumonia and having the sort of time that she expects to get in heaven.

A Dainty Homemade rowder.


 The use of a simple powder for the face in the heat of summer is almost necessity of the toilet. It not only cools and refreshes the skin, but it checks that profuse precipitation from which many persons suffer. The best powder for this purpose is undoubtedly one pre-. pared at home. To make such a pow der take six parts of good starch and two parts of orris root or violet sachet powder, if you prefer. Pound the mass to an impalpable powder. Sift it through fine sieve, if it is to be used with puff. A much more agreeable way of applying it, however, is cham ois skin bag, perforated repeatedly with largo needle so as to let the pow der sift through in little cloud. If snch a bag is incased in dainty little cover, crocheted of knitting silk, it win be quite an ornamental as well as agree able adjunct of the toilet table.
 The best shape for chamois powder bag is flat, circular one, formed of two circular pieces of chamois skin about three inches across; sew together 10 make flat piece. Fill the bag and per- forate it. To make the cover crochet two little mats of white silk, a trife larger than the channels skins. Add to one of the mats pretty border in rose and white, or pale yellow, as you fancy. Lay the bag of chamois skin on the bor- dered mat and fasten it down with the unbordered mat, using row of No. l ribbon to lace it down in place through the meshes of the crochet work. The ribbon should match the color of the border and should be tied in a dainty little bow at one side. York Trib- unp

train was tagged and the engineer and
fireman were taEen prisoners. The

broke open the safe and secured its
c%ontents. The amount obtained is sand
to be $50, 900. The passengers were
not mOleSted.
Deputy United States Marshall Mad

thought here to have been intended
for Indian payments.

was tagged near Red lioek, and when

dts jumped upon The engine and
guarded the engineer and fireman,
while others paid then attention TO the
rest OF the train crew. Tie rest OF
the robbers broke open the door of the

placed u; der guard, while the fireman
was compelled TO go INTO the express
car and light the lamPs, The robbers
