of :he late eX-Secretary Manning.

Punch, one of the most successful of the
Australian comics.
Queen Victoria used an elevator for the
first time in many years at the opening of
the Imperial Institute in London the other
day. There is nothing of the kind in any
OF the royal palaces.
The Emperor of Russia's fear of nihilsts
does not appear 10 affect his appetite. He
eats five meals day, beginning with an
early breakfast and topping off with a
light sIpper before gCng TO bed
Queen Margaret of Italy has long men,
orr. She refused TO accompany King
Humbert on visit to Queen Victoria at
the Villa Salmieria recently because Queen
Victoria had neglected to return her call Of
i've years ago.
Mrs. William Walter Phelps, the wife of
''the statesman with a bang" has crossed
the Atlantic Ocean siXty-ive times In
search of health or pleasure. The captains
OF the big 0cean-liners say she is as good a
sailor as any of them.
The Duke OF Westmins ter, who has scan
dalzed the English aristocraey by selling
Ciiveden. his ancestral estates In Berks, to
Mr.. Astor, excuses himself by saying that
lie has family of ten children TO provide
for. The sale adds $4,000 a year to the
Dukes income.
Cardinal Ledochowsky, to whom EN-
neror William. during his recent visit to
Rome. presented gold snuffbox. was
once fined. deposed and imprisoned by
Prince Bismarck. The Cardinal was then
German Bishop and violated one of the
clerical laws OF the Iron Chancellor.
The Maharajah Of Kapurthala, whose
wealth is as extensive as his name, is as

necklaces of diamonds and emeralds.

hasten to apply this calorc force in the
laboratory, where he has attained almost
theOretic perfection in the production of
cold. and may now hope to produce an in
tense heat ava liable for all his invest iga-
tons. BY the regulation of the current
the heat desired may be scaled down to a
nicely. almost with the facility of turning
up or down a stream of gas or water. The
welding of metals will no longer be either
a doubtful or q tedious process. For use
on shlpDoard, when shaft breaks and re-
pairs must be effected, this invention must
prove of the highest value. In a small
workshop much may be done quickly that
hitherto could scarcely be hoped for out
side large factory. 1t must have been an
invention of this kind to which Mr.. Swan
recently alluded, when he declared that he
had seen an electric appliance at work
which could force the metal doors Of the
heaviest and strongest safes in few
minutes, but that happily the burglar
could make 10 use of it unless prepared to
carry around with him forty horse
power engine. It is suggested that the
neat which may thus in a moment be de-
Veloped can be employed by the chemist in
producing crystals of the most valuable
gems. The composition Of precious stones
Is we'll known, but the manner of forma-
ton in natures laboratory is extremely

artificial production on more than expert

THE CONSTITUTIONAL POINT.

The comments of the Eastern papers on
the Geary act disclose a fountain Of pure
wisdom. For example the New York
World thus enlightens its readers:
The constitutional point is settled. but that
the act Is nevertheless an infraction OF the
treaty between the two nations is clear. 1t was
meant to be this by Its advocates. The privl-
leees existing under the treaty were the very
things the law was intended to nulIify.
The constitutional point was as to
whether an act in conflict with certain
treaty provisions was constitutional. The
court decided in favor of the act. The eff
feet of such decision is to abrogate the
clauses in the treaty inconsistent with the
law. The decision in the case of the ex-
clusiou act of 1888 abrogated the clause of
the treaty of 1880 which gave Chinese the
right to go and come. The exclusion act
said thew might 60 but should not come
China submitted to this amendment of
the treaty without protest. The go and
come provision of the treaty was there
fore abrogateG. TIE Supreme Court de-
clared that the act by which it was abro-
gated was constitutional. What vital part
of the treaty was u der such circumstances
violated by the registration act? Demo-
cratic journals doubtless remember that
the act OF 1888 was passed at the instiga-
ton of President Cleveland. 1t was an
electioneering trick that did not bear fruit.
The Geary registration act is mild in COM
parison, but Mr.. Cleveland gives the cue
for a prolonged outcry. We do not mind
the noise, but would prefer that the cutlery
should be reasonably intelligent.

ANOTHER DISCOVERY.

The account telegrapbed from Washing
ton of discovery in applied electricity by
two Belgian scientists, Lagrange and
Hohe. will doubtless engage the atten ton
OF all mechanical engineers. 1t is a pro-
cess almost too simple to be the subject of
patent, for it may readily be applied by
any engineer and perhaps as readily i'm
proved upon so as to Gust any protective
claim. But the power it gives to develop
an intense smelling heat almost instantly
and quite locally adds immensely to the
already great resources OF the engineer,
and hundreds of uses will occur to prac-
iical mechanics. The chemist also will

WASHINGTON'S WARRANT.

Judge Conan was 10 blame in the matter.
the Auditor gave him his warrant. but
said the failure must not happen again.
Washington stated that he had in his
possession $1,000 in fines and bail money
which he had not turned over 10 the
Treasurer, as required by the new law.

A MINIATURE WORLDS FAIR.

There Is DO reason why the proposition
10 transplant the best part OF the Worlds
Fair from Chicago to California should
not prove a brilliant success. Quantity
was the aim of the Chicago managers. and
it is admitted that they have organized the
biggest show upon earth Tho California
fair will not be SO large. but it may con-
tain the exhibits best worth seeing. The
idea is not TO make the fair national In
sense that would place it under national
supervision. The organization will make
and execute its own rules and regulations.
1t will be a commercial fair, in which
arrangements will be made probably TO
allow exhibitors to recompense themselves
for their trouble and expense.
It is quite probable that such a fair as is
proposed will be really more attractive
than the Chicago fair. The latter is vast,
so vast. in fact, that only those who can
spend several weeks in Chicago will see
half of it. The gems of the exhibit may
be compressed into space that can be
covered in two or three visits. At Chicago
there is much that no one cares to see,
but the average visitor bias to take eX-
hibits as ne comes to them. The ''busi-
ness end" of the proposition has not vet
close estimate of cost or probable receipts.
But one thing is pretty certain: the State
cannot afford TO let the opportunity go by
The cerain results are much greater
than any nosSibe cost. California lies
on the western edge of a continent
5000 miles in breadth. The bulk of the
American people are on tho eastern
breadth of 1000 miles. Between Califor-
MIA and Eastern centers of population
there are immense stretches OF country
much of which is at present unhahita BILE.
What California wants is TO get Eastern
people 10 come West and take a leisureiy
look at things. We invite comparison be-
tween this State aud the greatest and best
of the blessed forty-four. We are some
what afraid to tell the truth about our
State lest it may seem romance. But
we like to have people come and see for
themselves. The proposed fair would do
more for the State than ten consecutive
national political conventions. Every
newspaper in the country would be repre-
sented, and their representations would

The report that hundreds of tons of
freight await the steamers of the North
American Navigation Company at Central
American ports is good inducement to the
company TO 60 ahead. ship the cargo and
look around for more. The producers and
merchants of these republics are inclined
to be friendly to the new enterprise. They
regard it as deliverer from oppression,
just as tie merchan Of San Francisco do.

through Mr.. Cleveland's agent at Homo
lulu. A new treaty, it is said, has been
prepared, which will be submitted to the
Washington Government without the
agency of Minister Blount. This action
shows in what estimation Mr.. Blount is
held in Honolulu. A new treaty would
naturally be submitted 10 the American
Minister at the Islands had he been held
capable of giving it impartial considera-
ton. The action of the Provisional Gov
eminent in ignoring Minister Blount may
be considered in the nature OF an appeal
from Mr.. Cleveland to the American
