Congressman Boatner of Louisiana is
the terror OF the official stenogra pliers.

Nathaniel Hawthorne wrote his books is

General William +. Innes, who died re-
Gently at Grand Rapids. Mich. was during

CHINESE RETALIATION.

A correspondent states that Viceroy Ii
Hung Chang has requested William Bow
man, United States Consul at Tein- Tsin.
to call upon President Cleveland and in
form him what China proposes to do if the
Geary act is not repealed. China will take
no action at present in the hope that Con-
gress will repeal the act. Bnt if the
present Congress adjouEns without repeal.
ing the act China viii retaliate. 1t will
not declare war. but will suspend relations
and take measures to expel all Americans
from China. The message which ii Hung
Chang is reported 10 have intrusted to
Consul Bowman is so ridiculous that the
conclusion is safe that it did not emanate
from the brain of Lii Hung Chang. No
nation enscts laws under threat of retail
alton. The suspension of Chinese venge-
ance while Congress IS considering
what it will do is an open insult. If Iii
Hung Chang had sent such message as
this and if in the face oft Congress should
repeal the Geary act all Europe would
laugh at us. 1t is perhaps true that Europe
is laughing already. A law held In sus-

Thus it observes:
There are people who think Rhode Island is

population is eight times as lafg as that of one
of the silver States, three times as large as two
Of them together, and half large as a II four

TAKING NOTICE EAST.

The California Midwinter Fair begins to
attract attention East, and we may expect
sympathetic notices from our contem-
poraries encouraging exhibitors and Wis
ltors. I'm extent and in natural wealth,
says the Philadelphia Record, "the great
Pacific State constitutes an empire in
ITSELF The contemplated display will give
an opportunity 10 the world to gain some
appreciable idea of the diversity of her
productions" After Chicago's glories the
exhibition in San Francisco may appear a
tiny effort, yet people from the East and
Europe Will find here quite a new world
to study, wholly unlike any portion of the
United States east of the Sierra Nevada or
bordering the Gulf of Mexico. 1t is BY far
the most favored portion of the United
States in climate and variety of produc-
tions, and were it on the Atlantic side,
with all Its advantages, would not lack
population. Europeans should certainly
make good exhibit on this coast. They
have water facilities for TRANSFORMATION.

OF wrong. To be healthy dog must have
exercise, several miles on a sharp run
every day. 1t is impossible to giv- city
dog such exercise, and the consequence is
that the animals are rarely in good health,
and often go through agonies from rheu-
matism, the result of disused muscles.
The nightly howls ana bayings of city
dogs which keep people awake In the
small hours are generally groans proceed
ing from intolerable pain. Ii every dog

North American Navigation Company's
steamers, which offer rate of SO ton
via Panama. They would gain great
deal in money and would lose little in
time by the sea route.
Chicago is said to be in the enjoyment of
a very marked revival Of business, almost
amounting to a boom. Merchants are
doing good trade in almost every field of
enterprise. but an exception is made OF
drugs. The exception is rather a healthy
sign. indicating that something to do is the
right kind of medicine to keep people
well. The increased attendance at the fair
shows that the policy of reducing rates
materially, now insugurated by the rail-
roads. has a stimulating effect on travel.
and The railroads would have done better
by beginning the reductions earlier.
