IN SPITE OF ALL,

No matter in what garb thy form's arrayed
We needs must love thee eyer, charming
maid.
What tho we rail at robes that trail the
ground,
Or cling in sheathlike folds thy limbs
around;
What tho thy waist be long and wondrous
slim,
Or swalhed beneath thy arms in empire
trim;
What tho suspeuders hold thy skirts in
place,
Thy sleeves be tight or hugely pufed with
lace;
We still must worship. whatso'er Thy fads
OF boots and bustles, pOmpadours or pads.
And cen should hoops come IN grim shapes
once laidJ,
maid.

THE LION'S TASTE.
What the King OF the Forest
Finds 10 His Liking.

What the King OF the Forest
Finds 10 His Liking.
London Graphic.
Mr.. Selous, having spent twenty-one
years in Africa, has lately returned to
London from Mashonaland. Mr.. Selous
confessed that he had killed 100 ele
plants and % lions. His best lion story
was about mail carrier in Mashona-
and. The man in question was riding
one horse and leading another (Which
carries the maiS). when the hon made
his appearance and his spring. The
latter dem0ralized the mail completely.
One horse was bowIed over, the other
broke away without its rider, and the
mail carrier very naturally lost all in
terest in the mail.
The lion did not succeed in OBTAINING
either of the horses (they turned up
next day at the fort. one very badly
wounded, and without the mail bags, so
he returned to the unfortunate carrier.
Him the lion freed, and then sat down
at the foot of the tree to await develop
ments. Fortunately for the carrier they
did not develop entirely as the lion
would have wished, for the next day
caravan passed, and the lion stalked
away into the bush. doubtless with an
increased contempt for the reGnements
OF civilization. The mail bags were not
found for months afterWard.
Are lions fond OF man meat'"
NO" said Mr. Selous, ''they prefer
donkeys. | think the dOnkeys remind
them of zebras. They have no dlstaste
for horses. But they will attack human
beings. | once knew lion to walk into
a camp where | was staying and walk
off with one of the policemen. Pye
brought his skin hOme-the lior's. l
think it's in that cOrner-nO, it isn't. l
remember, have sent it away to be
cleaned"
"Lion-hunting is dangerous, isn't it?'
''It depends. One learns tOrun fewer
risks as one gets older When l wound
a lion now ! let him 90. When was
younger used to 20 after him. l shall
do so no more"

Special TO the Globe.
WASHINGTON, May THE Louis
vile convention will doubtless be
treated to vast deal of buncombe, but
it will be of a general. haZy and indefi-
mite order. Some of the speakers who
have not yet come to full realization
of the verdict OF the people last fall
will talk McKinleyiSm, others may
wave the bloody shirt but there will be
no one with the audacity required to
boast of the financial history of this
country during the past four years.
Mckinley and Reed will be idOliZed,
and the country given notice that the
policy OF the Republican party OIL the
tariff question will not be changed, but
no one will discuss the condition OF tho
treasury when it was turned over to the
present administration few days more
than two months ago.
lnaSmuch. however, as some of the
Republican organs seem 10 have forgot
ten just who are the proper parties to
be charged with the lOOtIng of the pub
lie treasury during the past four years
and shaking of the confidence of the

tween the management of the treasury
by the Harrison administration and that
of its predecessor. A statement show

of President Harrson's administration,
and the surplus, it will be noticed. re-
manned at about the same figure as dur

of the Fifty-first congress, however,
made the surplus melt away, while the
Mckinley bill cut of sources OF rev.

finances were III prosperous condition,

revenue for years mortgaged. and the
country drained of a large amount of
its gold under the operation of the
Sherman act. The Republican orators
may fume and froth at Louisville, but
they cannot deceive the people. who
will not fail to contrast the present dis
graceful and depiorable condition Of the
treasury with the prosperous condition
in which it was left by President CIeYe-
land four years ago.

AMONG THE REVIEWS.

Popular Science Monthly-Dr. East
lake thinks that there has been too
much OF tendency to idealize the
Japanese, due to the rare beauty of the
land, the passion of the people for flow
ers, the ease and leisure OF their lives
and the affability and polItenesS which
characterizes all grades of society from
the highest to the lowest. Foreigners,
with rare exceptions, see but the eX-
terror of Japanese life. The straders
who. with the missionaries. form almost
the whole of the foreign residents, see
little more than the native traders with
whom they deal, and who occupy low
social scale. The missionaries also keep
on the outskirts of native life. From
these causes come the conflicting state
mentS of social conditions i'll that land
of charms, and which give the readers a
confused conception of what the Japan
eSe really are.
The doctor is hardly more satisfying
of the curiosity his CRITICISMS on the
views Of others excite. He gives us
enough to show that he is familiar with
that inner life from which foreigners
are generally excluded. but only enough
to provoke an appetite far more, which
he fails to satisfy, probably feeling the
limitations of a magazine article on
him. A number of excellent photo
gravures accompany the article, illus
trative of indoor life. One of the social
entertainments described is illustrative
OF the intellectual conditions of the peo-
pie. One of the company. with a facile
pencil, makes some suggestive sketch
a mountain, lake, bunch OF their
favorIte chrysanthemums. or any other
object Another takes this and verSf-
fies the thought that is suggested by the
sketch. 1t may be doubted if the aver
age American social circle could equal
the excellence Of the productions given
as examples.

During Comedian William H. Cranes
weeks engagement at the Metropolitan.
which opens tonight, he viii present two of
his greatest comedy successes, namely, ION
Probation and THE Senator" Both plays
are radically different and give the comedian.
who has played everything from grand
English opera to burlesque, and from far
cical comedies to Shakespeare an oppor-
tunity to show his versatility. ION Proba-
tion,' which will be presented on Monday,
Tuesday and Wednesday evenings is comic
work and was the first play the actor pre-
sented when he separated from Stuart Rob
son. At that time it was in four acts and
there was strong serious interest in it. In
its present form, however, it is i'll three acts
and the seriousness has been eliminated in
favor of the amusing.
The Senator which will be given on
Thursday Friday and Saturday nights and
Saturday matinee, is probably the most sue
cessful comedy written in years, and it would
be hard to enumerate the number of people
who have seen it. We understand the sale of
seats for this engagement has been quite
large and big weeks business is antici-
pated.

Charles S. Plumb has very interest
ing article OH How Science is Helping
the Farmer" The expectations raised
thirty years ago by the first applications
of chemistry to farming operations have
not been realized, and their immediate
result was a disgust for the "book'
farmer: but in many directions scleh-
tihc discoveries have been the direct
cause of gain to the agriculturlst. Inc
artificial fertilizers winch have supplied
the deficiencies Of the barnyard are one
result, and, incidentally, the guarding
of the farmer against fraudulent dealers
who, tempted by the large profits, made
imitation fertilizers which they sold for
the prices of the genuine. The inspec-
ton of milk by means OF the
tests science has given has pro-
tected both the dairyman and the
consumer. The displacement OF the
laborious churn by the SeparatorS is
also gift of science to the farmer. In
the vineyard aud the field science has
brought the greatest boon. Insecticides
preserve the grape and the potato vines.
The orchard is guarded from the raw
ages of the moth by the spraying ma
chimes, with their contents destructive or
insect life. In the grain fields the
dreaded chinch bug has been practically
obliterated by the discovery that the
bugs are subject TO an infectious disease
which can be artificially produced, by
injecting numbers in d colony, and re-
leasing them to spread the disease
among their fellows, the pest Is soon
destroyed. The money value of this
discovery may be grasped when 1t IS
known that the chinch bug ravageS OF
1887 caused a loss to the farmers OF this
country estimated at $60,0O0,OOO.
