An International Episode.

An international incident of an I'M
usual and amusing sort has given inter
est to the news of the week from Can
ada. Admiral Magnaghi arrived at
Montreal with his ship Etna, and as he
dropped anchor he fired a number of
guns prescribed by naval etiquette as
salute to the flag of friendly nation.
But Montreal has a mayor who does not
recognize the kingdom of Italy, and by
his orders the salute was not returned.
1t Is understood that he bases his refusal
to recognize King Humbert on the
ground that Victor Emanuel wronged
the head of the church of which he is a
faithful member, and that the king of
Italy Is, therefore, in some way usurper.
The mayor of Montreal is evidently a
long way behind the times. But Ad-
mlral Ma5naghi is not, and he forthwith
photographed the Ottawa government, de-
handing that the prescribed amount of
powder be burned in honor of the Italian
flag, and intimating that unless this
Were done without further offensive de
lay he should feel compelled to resent
the indiglity by sailing right away out
of the St. Lawrence. SO the premier at
Ottawa ordered the mayor at Montreal
to fire the salute, the admiral is ap-
peased, and the international incident is
closed.-Boston Commonwealth.

a Singular state of Afrairs.

Doubtless it is in the interest of the
welfare OF all our people that banks, the
doors of which are open for business and
which are ready to receive deposits,
have fatty refused to honor the checks
of their depositors notwithstanding they
have the money with which to pay them,
but 1t is most singular state of affairs,
and the docility with which the depos-
ltors have accepted the situation is sur
prising.
The contract between the bank and
the depositor provides that the bank will
take charge of the depositors funds and
pay them opt on the depositor's check.
The assumption that the bank may at
any time, in the exercise of its own dis
erection, forcibly withhold the deposit
or's property from him is not contem-
plated by the terms of the contract usu-
ally made between the parties. The de-
positor has not authorized the bank to
do more or anything else than care for
his money and pay it out on his check.
Under ordinary circumstances the re-
fusal ola bank to honor the check of its
depositor when it admits that the money
Is IN its possession and belongs to the de-
positor, would be accepted as an evil
dence that the bank is itself bankrupt.
This method of preventing IA run on the
bank is certainly quite effective.
The good spirit III which the depositor
accepts the Inconvenience to which he is
thus subjected is a strong evidence of
that public spirit which may save the
community from irreparable disaster
At the same time it is worthy of remark
that no pugracious crank has as yet
asked the Intervention of the courts to
compel the Gank 10 give him his money.

Until he saw it with his own eyes, the
east end of London was, to NJ. Fran
cisque Sarcey, the region of Jack the
Ripper. He had been led to expect in it
a hideous blot on creation and a place
which it would be unsafe for him to ex-
plore except under police protection. He
came away from it agreeably disillu-
stoned. Had he remained long enough
in London to see the window gardening
exhibition, opened at st. Georges parish
church yesterday, he would have said
that the east enders were people of taste
as well as of comparative comfort and
of respect for law and order. Window
gardening in eastern London has
reached the dignity of fine art. 1t is
making a great and steady progress, and
this years exhibition is pronounced to
be superior to the five that have preced-
ed it. Most of the 300 plants exhibited
have been cultivated by young people
living in Shadwell and its neighboring
districts.-London News.

NaslIouts In Arizona.

The last place on earth from which
one would expect to hear of railroad
washouts, especially at this season of the
year, is Arizona. That region has rep
utatlon for aridity that is unequaled on
the continent. Its generally considered
a land of perpetual drought. 1t scarce
ly ever rains there at any season, and in
the summer time rain is regarded as
something unnatural
But 1t has been raining like fury dur
ing the last few days in Arizona. The
downpour has extended to New Mexico,
and there have even been heavy showers
on the Mohave desert in California In
Arizona the freshets have been so VIC
lent that numerous washouts have oc-
CURED along the line of the Southern
Pacific. Between ella Bend and Lords
burg, n. NJ, track, trestles, embank-

carried away.
Three engines have been ditched and
temporarily disabled. Inconsequenceo of
these mishaps trains are delayed and
traffic generally interrupted. Yesterday
General Superintendent Fillmore was
principally occupied in reading kilograms
informing him of fresh damages and
matchmaking Arizona for being such
an Internally contrary country.
AS usually happens in arid lands, the
recent rains in the desert region between
Yuma and Deming have partaken of the
nature of cloudbursts. The tempest
breaks with sudden fury, and the rain
falls in torrents, swelling every dry
ravine into the proportions of rushing
streams.-San Francisco Chronicle.

Getting Fun Out of Politics.

The truth is, people must either fight
or laugh, and we prefer to laugh. Once
in awhile partisans get into hot de-
bate and break the furniture, but as
general thing we take matters good
humoredly, and if reporter is really
witty we smile as broadly as circum-
stances permit. 1t is very interesting,
therefore, to read the comments of our
contemporaries. Here is The Tribune,
for instance, with a choice variety of
four line sqlilbs every morning full of
ridicule of the other fellow 1t has Il
specialist who extracts all the wasp
stings that can be found and furnishes a
daily dish drowned in pepper sauce.
Some of them make delicious reading,
not because they are true. but because
they are bright.

The Horn Fly.

Kansas farmers are complaining of a
new pest known as the horn fly-so
called from its habit of resting on the
horns of cattle-from whence it moves
to various parts of the body, piercing the
skin with its serrate proboscis and suck
ing the animals blood. Its habits are
not only annoying, but exceedingly harm
full. The pest was unknown here year
ago, but is now one of the most album
dant and hurtful of the fly species. Pro-
fessor Kellogg of the state university
says 1t is a native of Europe, and was
probably introduced into America with
a shipment of cattle from France. 1t
was first observed in New Jersey in Sep
TENDER, 1887. In October, 1888, it was
in Maryland. In 1899 it had travelled
south and west over Delaware, Mary
land and Virginia, and i'll 1890 it wss
wonderfully active, appearing in Ken
lucky. BY the end of 1891 it got as far
as New York ana west to Ohio, south to
Florida and Mississippi. In 1892 it was
noticed in Illinois and is now found in
Kansas and other western states. An
effort will be made to prevent farther
spread of the pest by the same process
now used in DISCRIMINATING chinch bugs.

Economizing on Preachers.

In Clark county, where hard times pre-

minister in the interest of economy. At
Ashland, the county seat, seven denomi-
nations combined and took vote on the
most popular of the seven ministers who
should preach the gospel to the people,
eschewing all doctrinal topics. The Rev.
Milleck of the Methodist church was Sc

The unsuccessful were not soured, and
accepted their fate, knowing that there
