The first suggestion that our visitors
be invited to land their men and take
part in land-parade was declared by
the big wigs of our navy to beont OF
the question. 1t was not until Presi-
dent Cleveland took the matter in hand
that the foreign adtnirals were asked II
they would land their men. The hearth
ness with which nearly all the forces
accepted the invitation when Ii was ex-
tended indicated the good viii existing
between their governments and ours.
The admirals and commanders had
been dined and feted, and the day ar
rived when the middies, the redcoated
marines, the artilleryrnen and the blue
jackets would have their turn. Hence
there was joy between the decks Fri

The only other steamer permitted

brief progress of the presidential re-

were senators and members of con-
gress, governors of states, newspaper
representatives and other invited
guests. When the Dolphin reached the
end of the line, in the neighborhoodo of
Ninety-fifth street, she dropped anchor
and made preparations TO receive the
commanding officers of the foreign
squadrons, who We're presented to the
president by their respective ministers.
Fifteen minutes before the reception
ended and when the president was pre-
pairing to land, an admonitory signal
was given from the Dolphin as he left
the vessel and entered his barge at the
foot OF Ninety-sixth street, every vessel
in the fleet again manned yards and
rails, and once more fired salute Of

Cholera in Winter.

Watchfulncss against cholera should

1882 cholera made it's first appearance
in London suburbs on the 18th of
February, and in Dublin three weeks
later. The first death from cholera in
North America that year occurred at
Quebec OH the Sth of June. Municipal

Bones.
Most Of us know the so-called gutta-
percha men, or, as the artists" would
call themselves. contortionists. Now

prominent among these phenomenal
beings is Marinelli. He owes his
place to his grace of movement and
IL case of his "corkScrew" contor-
tions. Twice lie has been examined by
the highest scientific authority-in
1856, by Prof. Virvhow. in Berlin, and
in 1889, by Prof. Billroth. in Vienna.
Both have delivered lectures before
specialists on him. Both examine
tons have proved that there is nothing
abnormal in Marinelli's Don system.
and that he has never been subjected
to any operation in order to attain his
remarkable abilities. The "virtuoso".
is wonderful and unique Says the
Copenhagen Nordstjcrnen) OH account
Of his muscle system, which naturally
existing in fine proportions, has been
developed by exercise and Il strong
will. The popularity with Marinelli
is that the muscles have been dcvcl-
oped i'll preference to the bone system.
He is really n mass of muscles under n
soft and elastic skin. 1t was. there
fore, impossible for the scientists to
locate his muscles and inner organs
while he was i'll his contorted posi-
tons. Along his back the muscles are
so developed that Marinclli can cross
his shoulder blades. Prof. Nirchow
shows that contortions like those of
Marinclli are natural to childhood,
particularly among unciviliZed peoples.
He has proved that by experiments on
a tw~elvc-year-old Kalahart girl. When
she was laid flat on the ground. face
down, he could gradually bend the
back 81 that the head touched the
buttocks. 1t is this really normal.
natural faculty which contortioniSts
develop from early childhood. Not all
attain equal perfection and elegance of
movement. Marinclli does not diet in
any particular way. He lives sensibly.
and has for six years maintained Il
weight of 100 pounds. He eats twice

The Baths at Fins.

The baths at Ems was known to the
Romans and their curative qualities
were celebrated as early as the four
tecnth century. The little town that
built up around them was made fa-
nous by the dispatch which Prince
Bismarck sent from it precipitating
the Franco-Prussian war.
Now that Bismarck admits that the
dispatch was a brutal f%alsehood,
framed for the purpose of causing a
bloody conflict. the name Of the little
place is in cverybody's mouth again.
Ems is most picturesquely situated in
n Of the lovcliest of the Rhine val
leys. The town possesses splendid
hotels and parks. An interesting feat
urc is it's cleanliness. The authorities
aim at perfection in that respect. Only
a week since Il local law went into
effect prohibiting splitting in the town
