 Tommy Talks on the Boy Question. Since pa built our, new house, there don't seem to be any place for us boys Jonn and me. Johns my big brother. His whole name is John Buynan-Joh Bunyan Brown. I asked pa what made him name him Bunyan; he's such afunny boy to have such pious name. Pa said he guessed t was cause he was always on foot. I don't know what, he meant, but John don't ever sit down-hardly ever. He's always running or walking or hopping or jumping or going some how.
 thought t would be so nice to have new house, but don't take no comfort
 wIth it much. Pa don't come into the
 parlor DO more evenings to lie down on
 tha sofa, as he used to, I mean, and he used to make shadows on the wall for me and John Bunyan in the old house. And nasl. she scolds more than ever, cause she pSc work so hard to keep the house
 ntoP Ter; and Viola-that's my big sis ter E she won't let me step my foot on the new carpets, even with my best shoes on. They are awful pretty-the carpets. They lock like 8 whole lot of moss, with roses aad morning glories scattered all over. I|wanted to see that new picture the other day, that hangs over the shelf where all those pretty things stand. So l took off
 my shoes and went on tiptoes through the hall and just opened the door the least mite Of crack, and Viola, she screamed fromlthe top of the stairs, Here, Tommy, Whatdo you want? Go right away, this minute. There's no place for boys in there. ? I saw boy in there one night. He vas bigger'n me, and he had a little mustache on his lip, and he was holding Yi0Ia's hand. I peeked through the win dov outside. don't b'lieve she liked it vely well, either, the way that boy did, 'cause she slapped his choek with her ff1, and said, "You naughty boy! Go away!n He didn't go. don't think she poke cross enough, not so cross as she docs to me. I have to go.
 We've got what they call a library now. Itliiak library is real nice, such handy thing to have in the house. You have somewhere for your books. There ain't any in the parlor,, or on the whatnot, or lyiAg around anywhere. If you want a book you know right where t is: know where my Christmas book, is, and mss little Testament with the red andgold coker.g It ain't lost, neither of lem, but cd Sft read it as my Sunday school teacher s4 A 'cause it leaves a hole when take it It and makes the other books lean |o1 { to try and fill it up.

A Countess Cook.

Like most wives of great men, Countess von Moltke was devoted to her brave husbands comfort. During their travels in Italy the lady went into the kitchen and prepared with her own hands all the food eaten by the old hero, who would rather face the cannon's mouth than an Italian meal He was fond of exhibiting to his friends what he called his wife's Italian coStume-a gray linen blouse and skirt and an i'm mense cotton apron-in'which the good frau spent most of her time in the Roman kitchens, while the American wife would have been viewing the churches of the Eternal city.

TIE present aspect of the Chilean crisis as far as the United States is concerned, amounts to this: The president has practically given Chile q last opportunity to yield to the de- mands of the United States and give satisfaction to the Baltimore's affair without being forced to act. He has instructed Minister Egan to ask the Chilean government what is going to be done and whether it is proposed to do anything as all. + in answer to Mr. Egsn's request any expressions of regret or promises of reparation are received, the United States will give a reasonable time for the fulfllnent of the promises Minister Egan is ex- pecting an immediate answer to the inquiry and if it is not forthcoming in . few days the president will assume charge Of Chilean affairs.

Definition of a Limited Train.

The question, why is limited train" so called? which was answered in the Railway Age recently by an officer of the Pennsylvania lines, has been pro pounded by New York paper to Gen. eral Passenger Agent George II. Dan iels, of the New York Central, who re- plies as follows: (1) It is limited as to its time; @ it is limited as to the number of ears and weight of train; (3) it is limited as to the class of ears: (i) it is limited as to the number and class of passengers permitted transportation thereon. This last limit icing adopted so that every passenger may have am pie accommodation. and not be crowd ed or interfered with by other passen- gers. The fact that an additional fare is charged on a limited train, and, further, that nothing but frs.-class tickets are accepted for passage, tends to limit the class of travel which is car ried.-St Louis Globe-Democrat-

The recall of Minister Egen was formerly requested of Secretary Blaine by Minister Montt head of the Chilean legation. It is said that the Chilean government bases it's request for the recall of Egan upon the allegations that the American minister has been guilty of making reports to Washing ton that were deliberately false and of engaging in intrigues for the purpose of creating trouble between the Unit ed States and Chile.

QUAINT PASSPORT.
The Far-East Town That Was the Scene
 of a Recent International Episode.

The Far-East IoWn That Was the scene
 of Recent International Episode.
 Passport, the scene of the recent seizure of American fishing boats by a dominion cruiser, is not, as is popularly supposed, the most easterly town in the United States, as a part of Lubec extends about a mile farther toward the sunrise, but it is far enough east to be commonly known as ''the jumping of place" and it is an old and interest ing town. Eastport, says the New York Sun, occupies the whole of Moose island, which is connected with the mainland by bridge twelve hundred feet in length and separated from the queens dominions by picturesque Pes samaquoddy bay. Moose island is about two miles wide by five miles long, and Passport village is situated at it's south eastern extremity upon harbor which is open the year round, never having been closed by ice. Passport has suf- fered more from disastrous fires than any other town in Maine, having been practically wiped out three times within the past half century. In 1889 the bUsi- ness section was swept away by the flames, and this was repeated in 1864, when two hundred and fifty thousand dollars worth of property was burned up. Again. in 1ss6, the town was visited by conhagration which destroyed one hundred and siNty-two buildings, causing loss of eight hun dred thousand dollars. The people, however, soon rebuilt their town, this time in more substantial manner than before, when nearly all the buildings were of wood. Passport is to-day a handsome town of something over i've thousand inhabitants, the greater part of whom are connected in one way CT another with the fishing industry, and all of whom seem toprosper better than the average of mankind. This is the great center of that interesting indus try whose product is little fishes piled in ile"-the sardine business. Here, aa- nually, millions of small herring are boiled, spiccd and packed in oil in little tin boxes covered all over with artistic French inscriptions-and they are just as good as any, sardines, if you only want to think so, and ninety-nine pco- pie in one hundred don't know the diff ference. If fine scenery could be boxed up and sold like little herring Passport would soon be as rich as New York The whole place seems designed by nature for summer residence, and when Gen. Butler was down there he declared that if the people who built Bar Harbor could have seen Passport first the great resort of the nabobs would have been located at PasSana- quoddy instead of on Frenchman's bay.
