Professor Vambery has been lecturinR
on the "Fashion Of Languages" before
the Buda-Pesth English club. Enyl.sh,
he said, may now be called the most
fashionable language in all the Eve parts
Of the world. II began 60 spread { 4 tho
first decades OF the century through Eng
lish literature, and in Asia by means Of
accelerated communication. Steamers
were tho wings Of the English Language
In the far east, and its spreading from
India and the straits settlemcnts to Chi
ma and Japan is simply miraculous.
There is no exaggeration in saying
that the number of English spea,ing
Asiatics amounts today to 3,00O Goo; thnb
Of Europeans to more than ,00O. 900. and
these, added 70 the 10000. coo Anglo
Saxons, give a total Of Engli7h speaking
men and women Of i30,0C0,O00 Should
the increase continue IN the same propor-
ton, the middle Of next century will
have 200.CC0,CC0 English speaking per-
sons, and the English win have no rival
in the world besides the Chinese.
Phonetically English is unsuitable for
the foreigner, and the lecturer declares
he always suffered acute pain in the jaws
when speaking publicly IN England and
trying to initiate genuine Er dish. The
phonetic difficulties are, however, amply
rewarded through the expressiveness, tho
rare precision. vigor and exactness in
which English surpasses all other Euro
pean tongues. London News.

A fact which is not generally known
outside Of sporting circles Is that gun
ner who seeks to do the best work he ID
capable Of requires to be measured for
his gun In the same way as he would be
for his suit of clothes. To facilitate this
operation. a new adjusting gun has been
devised. The bend and castof Of the
gun are adjusted by means Of screws,
and the points Of each are placed in
grooves running parallel to the line VI
the butt. The length Of the butt is also
adjusted by screws In the heel. Tho
length and bend Of the stock can in this
way be regulated to the length Of neck
and arm Of the shooter, as well as to the
various special requirements to which
his style Of shooting may give rise

hension as 10 the purpose Of those
who are engaged in pension re-
form. They are not enemies to
the deserving soldier, and no class
of people in the community more
cheerfully agree that those vete-
rams who were disabled or serious
ly injured in the public service,
and are thus made incompetent to
labor in competition with others,
shall receive a liberal amount Of
pension money. They have no
warfare with Grand Army of the
Republic posts, but bid them god
speed in their work of charity to-
ward destitute soldiers or soldiers
families whom they benefit. They
do object to political operations
on the part of these posts, how ev-
er, believing it is foreign to their
purpose TO engage in partisan pol
itics, and especially that it is un-
worthy men who have been sol
diers to give their influence in OBJ
tanning government aid for those
whose actions have not been such
as to merit it. We have seen no
disposition in Grand Army posts
to do such things directly, yet
when they stigmatize men who
would endeavor 20 keep the pen
sion lists pure as enemies Of the
soldier they are approaching pei-
ilously near to doing this thing
1t is no more than justice to as
sumo that men are patriotic-nay,
more, that men are sympathetic
toward the soldiers of the late
war, even il they do not approve
of the pension list as it is in all
its features. When those connec-
ted with G. A. r. Posts denounce
pension reformers as not friendly
to the soldier, they do injustice to
themselves as well as to those they
attack. G. A. r. Posts were not
instituted to defend abuses, or to
create prejudice against those
who would correct abuses. An
instance has come under our
knowledge of a medical examiner
connected with the pension Office
who lately had thirty cases of
claims for pensions brought to
him to pass upon. He allowed
just two of them, and pronounced
the twenty. eight others as i'm
proper. This man has been one
of the most bitter and extreme in
his denunciation of President
Cleveland's pension vetoes. He
probably has now a better realiz-
ingsense of the grounds Of those
vetoes. Some of our Grand Army
friends who ponder this instance
may, perhaps, have something
more of charity for those of us
who believe that there were un-
worthy claims for pensions which
passed earlier.

THE ADMINISTRATION
VIII Not Force the Policy of Restorin

VIII Not Force the Policy of Restoring
the Queen to the Throne.
WASHINGTON, Dec 1.-At last Sec.
retary Gresham has consented to take
the public into his confidence enough
to announce that the administration
mas precedent for its remarkable course
in Hawaii.
Secretary Gresham told an official
friend that when President Harrison
entered into the arrangement with the
governments of Germany and England
for the forcible enthronement of an
Objectionable king, Malieotoa Laupena
In 1889, and brought about the depos-
ing OF King Mataafa, he established a
precedent which has been taken up by
this administration for the re-enthrone-
ment of Queen Liliuokalani."
Secretary Gresham has lot of cop
les of President Harrison S proclamation
of May 81, 1890, upon neutrality
toward the autonomous government of
the Samoan islands," and places it in
the hands of every out-of-town friend
who calls for one of these copies.
But what is most significant is the
remark made by the secretary of state
to the friend to whom he sent the
above, that he did not think the admin
istration would force the policy OF
restoring the queen to her throne. He
thonght the efforts already made were
sufficient to show good intentions and
that nothing further would be done
just at present This is taken as mean
ing that the administration has yielded
to public opinion, and will let things
take their own course on the islands.

Them.
PICTou, N. s., Dec. 2-Sir John
Thompson and Sir Charles II. Tuppez
addressed great political demonstra.
tion here. The premier said that the
Canadian government was for genuine
tariff reform.
Referring to the tariff bill submitted
to congress by the democratic commit
tee, the prem ier dwelt on the fact that
instead of being in the direction of free
trade the democrats were clinging with
might and main to the protective pol
Icy, and that the duties under their
proposed tariff reform were much high
or than the duties now levied by Cam
ada under it's protective system.
He did not believe that there would
be any reciprocity treaty between the
two countries. "Still," continued tho
premier, "for every step the United
States congress takes in reducing or
abolishing duties on Canadian products
we will take a corresponding step in
reducing or abolishing our tariff at
American ports so far as the require.
meuts Of our revenue will make it pos
sible without sacrificing our CONNER
cial independence or our attachment to
the mother country"

SENDING IT AWAY.

The Whisky Men Exporting Their Goods,
to BE Brought Back at the Ninety-Cent
Rate.
WASHINGTON, Dec 2.-Treasury de-
partment figures show that in anticipa-
tion of possible increase in the internal
revenue tax on distilled spirits, consid-
erable quantities of spirits are being
taken out of bonded warehouses and
being exported, and large quantities Of
newly distilled whisky are being
placed in bonded warehouses, to be re-
deemed hereafter at the present rate Of
tax Of 80 cents gallon.
The whisky being taken out Of bond
is that which has been in the ware
house for nearly three years, at the ex-
piration of which time the tax has to
be paid. If exported, even though it
should be sent no further than Bermu-
da it can be imported at the pleasure of
the holder at any time on payment of a
corresponding duty to the tax at the
time of its departure, namely 90 cents
per gallon.
