The offer was declined, and Disraeli

ing this note, Disracli began TO con-

a sentimental kind; but before he
put pen TO paper he got the Times
with letter in IL from Lord Stanley

MAGAZINE NOTICES.


The chief feature of the Century for
July, and one of interest in connection
with the Extradition Treaty with Rus
STA, is a continuation of the discussion
of the internal affairs of the Czar's en-
pire. This consists of two rejoinders to
the paper contributed to the February
Century by the Secretary of the Russian
Legation at Washington, Mr.. Pierre Bot
kline, entitled A Voice for Russia. One
of these articles is by George KEENAN,,
under the title A Voice for the People
of Russia, in which the writer takes
issue with Mr.. Botkine's main PROPOSE
lions and cites a large number of au-
thorities in support of his contentious
with the Russian secretary. The other
article is by Joseph Jacobs, in behalf of
the Russo-Jewish committee in London;
it is entitled The Official Defense of Rus
sian Persecution, and is confined to the
special consideration of the attitude of
the Russian government toward the Jews
of the empire. The Worlds Fair comes
in for forther attention an illustrated
article by Royal Cortissoz entitled Color
in the Court of Honor at the Fair, which
is illustrated by reproductions of decora-
tive work by American artists, including
the work of George w. MAYNARD in the
portico of the Agricultural Building, and
of Blashfield, Beckwith, Cox, Reilhart,
Reid, Simmons, Shirlaw and Weir in the
domes of the Manufactures and Liberal
Arts Building, together with a. full-page
view of the MacMonnies fountain after a
drawing by Castrigne, whose work in
the May number attracted wide and fay-
orable attention. A curious illustrated
article is by Thomas Bailey Aldrich on
Old Portsmouth Profiles. in which queer

He is also going back to his faithful

making a leap in the dark. The theory
he has justified is the basis of his coming
attempt; and the plans he has founded
upon it are stamped with the approval of
every expert.

the happiest auspices. What he has
done justifies the faith that he will do
much more. His countrymen have app
plauded his past success and have shown
much interest in his present enterprise;

ued health and prosperity of the brave
explorer and his fair young wife will ac-
company them as they set out for the
little inlet in Murchison Sound which is
to be their Arctic home for the next two
years.

Tammany Hall is accustomed to cele-
brate the Fourth of July with a special
effort of speeches, song, and parade.

men are afraid lest by seeming to honor
Tammany, they may displease the Presi-
dent, and thereby injure their ability to
secure patronage for their hungry con-
stitnents. And tits pretty good reason
too.

In this connection it will not be amiss we
thinh to call attention the fact that so far as
we have observed, not a single bank in Can
ada has failed or closed its doors. There is
stringency Ia the money market there as here
but no bank failures. Why is it thus? We are
told that repeal OF the law taxing State banks
will result lii wildcat banking and deprecated
or worthless currency. The Canadian banks
issue currency to the amount of their paid up
capital, yet we hear of no bank failures, no de-
preciated bank notes.--Argus.
Have you heard of any deprecated
bank notes in this country? Certainly
not. Since the national banks were es-
tablished nobody has lost a single dol
lar through a circulating note issued by
any one of them. Can that be said of
the old State banks which the Demo-
cratic platform proposes to revive by re-
moving the ten per cent. tax? Can it be
said Of the Canadian banks, which the
Argus thinks are such admirable insti-
tutionsP

There appears to be no reason to be-
lieve there will be any serious opposition
to the reelection of Mr.. Crisp as Speak
er of the House. Indeed it is likely that
he will be nominated by the Democratic
Congress by reclamation. A year ago
there were indications that the admins
tration would oppose him, but it has
evidently been decided not to do so,
whether because there was little chance
of beating him or because he has prom
ised to do very much as the administra-
ton wants him to do, is not clear.

The suggestion is now made that in
stead of repeating the Sherman law Con-
gress pass a brief act enabling the Presi-
dent to suspend it's operation until Con-
gress meets in December. The sugges-
ton is a good one. All that would be
accomplished by repeal will be accom-
plished by this suspension, and the lat
tor will be much more easy to bring
about than the former. If repeal is at
tempted long and bitter fight will be
preciptated, and even if the House has a
clear majority in favor of repeal the OPP
ponents may be able to defeat it by
dilatory motions.

Prohibitionists on the one hand nor the

is hardly possible that the Governor will

How He Worked 1t.

There's certain business man in Chi
cago who is as cranky as he can well be
and is at the same time very careless in
his business affairs. But he is very rich
and has big establishment. and not an
employee likes him. About year ago
one of his clerks, getting 81 900 year.
approached him on the subject of an in
crease of salary The old man got hot
in IA minute.
How much are you getting now" he
asked.
The clerk was about to tell him when
happy thought struck him.
Two thousand year" he replied
firmly.
..Um-um," he said. You are a good
clerk. and I'll see what can be done for
you.
Then he dismissed the clerk and called
in the manager.
Make Jones' salary 81 800 a year" he
said.
The manager was about to offer an ex-
planation.
.'Do as tell you."' said the old man.
''Tll teach the young upstart to come IN
here debating to me how much money
to pay my people
BY this time the manager had compre-
hended the situation, and he forthwith
put Jones on the 81 800 list. and six
months later. when the old man found
how he had been worked. he called Jones
in and told him he would restore him to
the $4,000 list. and Jones was shrewd
enough to take the twinkle in the old
mans eye in good faith and say nothing.
