The Mouse as N Pet.

A winsome pet is the common brown
mouse, and now fancy hear the most
vigorous protests from my readers, who,
though they do not shrek and take ref
uge on chairs and tables like Howells'
feminine characters, still have strong
feeling of distaste to him. Nothing can
be imagined more dainty, graceful and
altogether captivating than the tricks
and manners Of this humble resident
within our walls.
Once allay the poor little creatures
fears OF his big, clumsy human persecu-
tors, and his delightsome qualities are
apparent. Frisky in movements, droll
in conceits and eccentric Of action, he is
a never ending source Of entertainment.
Moreover, he Is as teachable as the rat,
absolutely neat in his ways and most
loving to his friends.-Harper's Bazaar.

Good Lawyers.

Some Of the most pious, the most con-
secrated, the most consistent, the most
humble Christians we have known per-
sonally and intimately have been or are
now lawyers. We could name several
who have through long lives lived close
up to their Heavenly Father in sweet and
gracious communion. We say further
that many Of the purest, noblest men we
have known-patriots in a high sense,
with lofty ideals and morale compare
BILE to the best-were lawyers. They
were an ornament to their country and
the human race. We know some Of this
kind who still survive.-Wilmingt On.

Are Animal. Ever "iioredg"

Surely mankind has sufficient faults
and failings Of its own 10 answer for
without being called upon 10 assume the
responsibility Of animal failings as well.
An American author has discovered that
domestic animals, such as cats or dogs.
are not only subject to ennui, but also
display their feelings under that infiic-
ton after very much the same fashion
as their human friends, fact which no
one who has kept tame animals will be
tempted TO deny.
But from this fact our contemporary,
The News. leaps to perfectly unwar-
rantable conclusion and boldly asserts
that ours is the fault, that mankind has
inoculated tine keast creation with its
own particular xsease and that it is
civilization (which produces ennui, not
only in men. women and children, but
even in cats and dogs" 1--WE may well
blush." ii continues. "when we think
how man has demoralized the dog. We
have taught the dog TO be bored. We
have corrupted him by our society"
And again. "Ennui is one of mans many
Inventions. but he has taught the un-
profitable vice to the domestic or at least
to the household animals-pupils only
too apt in evil"
Was ever so monstrous charge lev
eled against our innocence! The next
thing We shall be told Is that we are the
cause that dogs do bark and bite and
that whatever may have been the NOR
ality Of DIR. Watts his natural history
is no better than his poetry. The News
if it is so assured of the demoralizing in
fuence II has exercised upon dogs, is
welcome to blush for itself. We prefer
to maintain that dogs sorrow under
boredom for the same simple reason that
they delight to bark and bite, "for tits

THE OPENING DAY.

On May 1st the electric age was
ushered into being in this last de-
cade of the 10Th century when
President Cleveland, by pressing
the button, started the mighty
machinery, rushing waters, and
revolving wheels in the Worlds
Columbian exhibition. No ex-
hibition of the fair that is TO at
tract the thousands to Chicago for
the next six months can be more
marvellous than the magical effect
following the solemn opening OF
the fair. OF the multitude OF
visitors, some estimate the num-
ber as high as two hundred thous-
and, and probably not one fully
realized the full import of the eff
feet that was to come from the ar
rangement cleverly devised in Tie
opening Of the exposition. 1t was
known in a vague way that the
president was to press a golden
key and that electric communica
ton with the machinery was to
start the fair, but no one realized
how intricate was this machinery;
how infinite the ramilications of
that electric spark until the great
fountains threw up their geysers
seventy feet into the air; and the
rumble and hum of the wheels in
the manufactures building and
the clatter of machinery in all
parts of that area of, Il mile square
or more, told the story of the
final consummation of scientific
thought. The lifeless started in
to being Oh every hand, draped
statuary shed its veil and reveal
ed TO the world the artistic labors
of the past eighteen months, and
in a moment all that has been
apathy and inert and inactive
through the long hours of morn
ing, sprang into animated exist
ence and thrilled the multitude
and crowned the triumph of the

The news comes from privat

The news comes from private
court circles that Emperor Will
liam entertains a notion of visit
ing the worlds fair. The emperor
has always shown great interest in
America. and it is owing to this
personal interest that Germany is
SO well represented at the Chicago
fair. When the first proposition
was made to the manufacturers Of
the upper Rhine that they make
exhibits they replied by point
blank refusal. Hearing this the
kaiser made Il personal matter Oft.
10 the objections of the manufac-
turers, based on the Mckinley law,
he replied that they should be
above such considerations and
should exhibit in way creditable
to Germany. The result is that
that country will be finely repre-
sented, instead of being an absen-
tee. The emperor made it point
that the warship Kaiserin Augusta
should be pushed forward in time
to go to New York to take part in
the review so that the Americans
should see the latest and most
modern type of fast cruiser. He
sanctioned, the national historical
trophies being sent across the At
lantic. and it would take. only a
cordial invitation from the right
quarter now to induce the kaiser
10 follow them. The only ques-
tion is, where would Chicago house
his. imperial majesty and his suite?

NOTES AND NEWS.

WelIbOrn Beeson, an Old and re-
spected pioneer of Jackson county,
died at his home at Talent OH the
29th ult. He leaves a wife and
several children.
1t is stated that it will be fully
two weeks before the worlds fair
Will be in full blast. The build
ings are complete, but the delay is
due to the tardiness of exhibitors.
The exercises attending the re-
cent arrival at New York, of the
American and foreign vessels, was
ushered in by unvelling in Bat
terry park the statue of John Eric
son, the builder of the Monitor, and
whose genius revolutionized ma
rine architecture and naval war
fare.
Minister John l.. Stevens. who
has represented the United States
in Hawaii since Mr.. Blaine became
secretary OF state, has resigned his
post and will return to the United
States in a short time, probably
about May 18th. 1t is thought
likely that President Cleveland
will have selected his successor by
the time Mr.. Stevens is ready to
leave for the United States.
Sontag and Evans, fugitive train
wreckers and all-round bad men,
came out of the brush near Visalia
on the 29th and held up the VISA
liza and Sequoia stage. These fell
lows may yet form an attraction at
the worlds fair saloon TO be con-
Quoted by Frank James. They
would also prove a drawing card
for Buffalo Bill's wild west show,
now giving performances in Chica-
go, in the act which portrays the
robbing of the mail coach.
Oregon's fruit exhibit at the
worlds fair astonishes the natives
and is one OF the finest state dis
plays on the grounds. In the cen
ter of the space allotted to Oregon
a great pyramid, fifty feet long and
forty five high, has been built.
This pyramid is composed Of thirty
two different kinds of wood grown
in Oregon, built in spiral shape
with projecting ledges, upon which
will be placed a variety of preserv-
ed fruits. The men had just start
ed the pyramid when the dray
pulled up to the door containing an
elegant picture which will be the
background Of the Oregon booth.
This picture was painted by Stan
ley, and portrays Mount Hood.

A humiliating accident occurred
a few days ago to the new coast
defense vessel, Monterey, the pride
Of the Pacific states and the glory
of the Union Iron Works of San
Francisco. The vessel was steam
ing down from Mare island to San
Francisco, and when off the pow
der whari-she wasn't blown to
atoms, she didn't sink like a chunk
of steel that she is; she wasn't bonn
barded by the cruiser of any snarls
ing nation. All these things are
really less astonishing than what
really happened. The great war
vessel ran into a fish net, got
tangled up and was anchored hard
and fast for twenty four hours. II
she had run on to the Farallones,
full head, she couldn't. have set
more soIIdIy. The services Of di-
vers Mere required TO finally free
her. CoDjectures are rife as to
the great field this incident opens
up in naval affairs. The idea Of
building a line'of forts up and down
the Pacific coast to batter in the
sides of menacing war vessels may
now be given up. Stretch nets in
steal. The mishap Of the Monte
rey argues in their favor.

LESSON or THE NAVAL REVIEW.

The Inter-Ocean of The 9th in
discussing the naval review which
took place in New York bay OH
the SAME date says:
"And in strange contrast to the
redoubtable Blake, of England,
the frowning Jean Bart, of France,

erin Augusta, OF Germany. Or the
Philadelphia of the u. S. navy,
will be the three caravels from
Spain that will represent the three

four centuries ago. Certainly the
centuries between the age of
columbus and oar own have
witnessed the greatest triumphs
in naval architecture that history
records. What the caravels OF
iColumbus stand for will be
much better shown in the great
Exposition which will open its
gates to the world next Monday
morning than in the great naval
review TO day. brilliant and i'm
pressing as it will be.
The glory of the United States,
like that of Columbus, does not lie
in her naval or military achieve
ments, glorious and honorable as
they have been. Peace hath
its glorles no less renowned
and farther-reaching even than
those Of war and the
nation Of all others with
which even the greatest European
power would least care to grapple
in conflict, whether upon sea OIL
upon land, may we'll be content
with the strong and enduring
basis Of greatness upon which its
prestige rests, even though Other
nations in mere number and
strength Of naval equipment may
outrank her.
1T is the enormous and incal
culable reserve force of a great
strong, prosperous nation that j:

A TALK WITH REID.

Whitelaw Reid arrived east on
the 1st from a tour of the Pacific
states. In conversation with al
reporter Mr.. Reid said the Pacific
coast was prosperous and the in
termediate states shove great
progress. When asked how he
founl those states, politically, MIR.
Reid said:
They will not separate them
selves from the party on any po-
sition the great body of repnbli
cans east of The Rocky mountains
are likely to take Oh silver. In
fact, the people Of the Pacific
coast believe in money that will
pass current the world over, and
are not so sensitive about silver
as some of the newspapers might
lead you to think. The only
western states where the majority
of the people believe in free coin
age, or other extreme measures,
and are in red hot earnest about
it, are Nevada, Colorado, and pos
sibly Idaho"
Speaking of the present finan-
cial trouble, Mr.. Reid denied that
it is due to the condition in
which the treasury was left by the
last administration, adding:
"The low state Is exactly what
the supporters of the present ad-
ministration have most vehement
ly demanded. They said the re-
publicans had been collecting and
boarding in the treasury the great
and unnecessary surplus. Very
well, the republicans revised their
revenue system with the avowed
purpose of bringingAdown that
surplus to the legitimate wants ol
the government, economically ad
ministered, and they did bring il
down. as precisely as possible, &c
just that point. So long as they
remained in power they had
money enough in spite of the
heavy foreign demand for gold
There has been no change since
excepting in the men responsible
for the government. If people al
home and abroad have not equa
confidence in them and begin tt
draw gold below the DANCE
point, you must not blame the
republicans for that. While they
were in power there was no gen
eral fear that a parity could no
be maintained and consequently
therefore no serious run OIL us fol
gold.
"The question of remedy fo
the existing state of affaias call
for legislation, and certainly de
mands the best wisdom of con
gress. The man who undertake
to deal with it alone and chooses
to meet crisis without consullin!
congress must have either phe
nomenal confidence in himself o
phenomenal lack of confidence
in the government. Mr.. Cleve
land is a man of such common
sense that one is forced to thinl
that he must have disquietin:
fears about the temper and ten
denotes of his congress. Blu
there can be no permanent i'm
provement until business men aa(
manufacturers can be relieved
from the present uncertainty ant
the threatened radical changes il
the currency, in the tariff and ou
reciprocity arrangements, ant
they pause till they know wha
the changes are. In scarcely an.
other country in the world is sucl
a delay as the present one pos
sible.''

yesterday that had quite an effect, The ap

o'clock, noon, to get his dinner When the

hour and wound up thirty or forty of the
alarm clocks in the place. They all struck
about the same time and made such clamol
that people rushed in droves from the streets
into the store to ascertain the cause. The
jeweler explained the situation and the ap
prentice got his dinner.

sheep as a sort of insurance to prevent
Allah from destroying the building. A
