preparativos consiguientes para
presentarse con la elegancia que

porque ha de saber nuestro colega,

sarse en- la forma que 81 10 hace.
que los llamados na0tinSes 8 fiestas,
0ue tan en- moda estin en- t0dos los
paises y que se celebrsn en- I'm
cas- de recreo, no exigen trsjes de
stiqueta, sino simplemente los de
diario, prescindi6ndose On las mis-
mas de toda formula palaciega y
reinando gran libertad y expan-
si6n, por 10 que las ccnversacio-
mes adqnieren relstiva familiaridad

There i increased interest in the
Nicaragua canal. The matter was under
consideration in the senate. Friday
Senator Frye made a strong speech in
its favor. He said the government could
build the canal for S75,00o, 00o, and the
bonds would sell readily hearing inter
est at only I per cent. The interest
money and repairs Wonld not exceed
80 300, 900 per annum. Governmental
control would permit the lowering of
the rates 10 one dollar n ton and Il profit
would result at that figure 1t would
cost the company alone much more to
build the canal and he bonds could not
be ioated for less than per cent This
would increase the tolls to a figure that
would exclude all commerce of q coarSpr
grade such "a lumber and cereals which
could not be the ease if ihe government
BULLS the canal. The building of the
canal would bring China and Japan 200
miles closer to the eastern United States
than to Liverpool and enormously in
crease our trade relations with those
countries. 1t is stated that President
Cleveland is decidedly in favor of the
project.
