The Emperor William is not so much taken
Up with the wickedness of the Anarchists at
the present time that he has no thought for
the sports and pleasures for which under
ordinary circumstances he has always shown
high degree of appreciation. IL will be re-
called how heartily he entered into the vari-
ous sports of the students on his last visit to
Heidelberg. The great contest between the
picked oarsmen of the Oxford and Cambridge
universities has not escaped his attention
and he sends the Oxford crew message
which does his head and heart far more credit
than some of the bombastic and clustering
speeches which he has been recently making
as the head of the state and army. He tele-
graphs to Max Muller: by right of my old
and never-failing friendship for beautiful Ok
ford and her brave sons, again beg you to
be the interpreter of my heartiest congratu-
tstions TO tho crew on winning the boat race.
so enthusiastic a lover of aquatic sports as l
am must always rejoice when young men use

HE fTOc-pOnd AT the corner OF Franklin
and Harrison streets is an intolerabie nuisance
and disgrace TO the city of Richmond. Why
is it allowed to remain therey what officer
or officers is or are responsible for the laws
not Ibeing put in force so as 10 compel an
abatement of this nuisance? The grand jury
year ago indicted 1t as a nuisance. and
lot owner there was convicted by jury of
maintaining a nuisance and fined. yet the
nuisance remains. II is. therefore, estab-
lished by judicial decision that the pond is a
nuisance maintained in open defiance of the
law, but it still remains there defying the law.
Who is responsible? Is there any man, or set
OF men, in this city bigger than the law; or are
there officers who will no. perform their du-
ties in enforcing the lawsY Whichever it is,
let US know it. But this nuisance must be
abated. It has bred pestilence and death in
that neighborhood long enough 1t is a nui-
sance. an eye-sore and disgrace to the city.
Why is not Franklin street from Harrison
street west paved? Ii the thoroughfare for all
strangers visiting our city, all of whom desire
10 see the Lee monument and they must take
away with them a strange idea of city's
government which leaves its most fashion
able street in such a condition as Franklin
street is in. This is a matter IN which every
citizen of Richmond has an interest. We are
all interested that our fashionable thorough
fare should do US credit. The people will
not begrudge the money necessary to making
it what it should be- 1t is matter in which
their pride is involved and it should not be
peplected

says that all the Europeans in that city
have escaped safely from the choloria
which is raging in Mcshea and the
province of khorassan. Among tho
natives deaths have reached 80 daily.
The disease is of the most violent tyne.
Persons seemingly perfectly we'll are
seized with the disease while passing
along the streets or attending to their
usual business, and in few hours many
of them are dead
No panic prevails, for the people look
upon the epidemic as visitation from
God, and with the calm Indifference that
characterizes the Orientals. They carry
their dead with callousness that
would lead stranger to conclude that
they were without hearts. The story
tnat the dead were cremated and that
often those who are suffering with the
disease are thrown, while still alive,
upon the pyres is absolutely without a
grain of truth.
On sanitary grounds the burning of
the dead would be of the greatest pos
sible benefit to the living, but as a mat
ter OF fact no attention whatever is paid
In Persia to sanitary laws. Indeed,
such laws arc unknown and the dead
are buried in the usual manner within
the precincts of the town.

LONDON June 11.-LSpecial The
burden of the comments of all the even
ing papers on the denomination of Har-
rison and the selection of Whitelaw
Reid as the Republican candidate for
Vice. President is JOY over the defeat of
Blaine. The Pail Mall Gazette says:
Even those least in sympathy with
Blaine as politician may spare pass
lingo regret at the cruel disappointment
OF the man who is the ablest Republican
and the most astute politician in the
United States"
The Globe says: "For once the Amer
lean caucus was of real interest to out
siders, especially to England. In view
of the dissension in the Democratic
party, the nominee of yesterday stands
good show Of being the next Presi-
dent 1t was happy thing that the
caucus decided overwhelmingly against
the great wire-puller, whose entire
career has been marked with attempts
to make party capital out OF foreign
politics."
The Globe then relates at length
Blaine's acts of hostility toward Eng
land, as shown in the CHILEAN affair, the
Boring sea question, the Newfoundland
matter, etc., and adds: Even as it was,
President Harrison sometimes had diff
iicult task to check the mischief"
The Star publishes the most violent
attack on Blaine because OF his pro-
lection principles, and sums up its es-
innate of President Harrison's uualifi-
cations by declaring that he is ''quiet,
unassuming old gentleman, of great
personal integrity, but without great
ability" 1t then predicts the nomina-
ton of Cleveland by the Democrats
and concludes by saying, The sympa-
theis OF all free traders and liberals
should be with tho champion of reform,
Grover Cleveland
The st. James Gazette says: cit isa
matter OF Indifference to Englishmen
which party in America is in power,
since both cater for the Irish vote by
occasional rudeness to Gre 1t Britain.
President Harrison following less
adroitly Blaine's example, carried
braggadocio to absurdity in the Boring
sea negotiations until it was found to be
in vain, when he dropped it and climbed
down. So much for Republican courtesy.
But almost the last act of the Demo-
cratic cabinet was to insult the British
representative at Washington"
