WHAT are we to think of the ap-
parent extraordinary apathy mani
tested by the British Government to-
ward its interests in Rio? The other
day the Admiral of the British feet
refused succor to British merchant
man, whose captain accordingly found
relief under the stars and stripes.
More recently the masters Of all the
British steamships in the harbor
joined in a cable message to men,
Der of Parliament representing that
"our navy refuses assistance in land
ing our sick and supplying water,
and that the American navy was act
ing instead. England has not been
used to neglect her merchant marine

breach of the treaty Of Amiens down
ward, to stand upon nice questions
of international comfy when her
ocean interests were involved. Has
q blight fallen upon the foreign office?

troublesome Initials.

Some years ago several wealthy
men of Memphis, Tenn, built a
steamboat, and named it after one
of their best citizens, Charles b.
Church. But in painting the
name on the paddle box, as they
wanted the letters large, they put
simply the initials, so that the name
read &C. b. Church"
When the colored people first
caught sight of the boat they piz-
zled themselves not a little over this
name. Such Of them as could read
reasoned about the matter at great
length.
what kind OBJ church am dat G.
B. church," they queried. "What
does de G. Il. stan for? OATS what
we want to know"
At length a bright thought struck
one OF them, and he exclaimed joy
fully, Il know what dat ere stan
forl Wonder / didn't see it 'forel
Dat G. b stan for Colored Baptis'-
it's de C0lOred Baptis' Church, OATS
whatit isl" 7nio'
The steamboat went by that name
for some time. until the owners, In
desperation at the jokes about It,
erased the initials, and had Charles
Il Church painted IN full.

PRESIDENT PEIXOTO is working
himself into an unnecessary perspira-
tion over tfIe escape Of Admiral da
Cana. He is acting foolishly. What
he should do is to grant the rebel
leader full pardon and invite him
back to Brazil Nothing SO destroys
the prestige Of would-be revolu-
zionist as to strip him Of the halo OF
martyrdom. Da Cana prescribed
and outlawed, proclaiming his woes
and the woes of Brazil in Portugal
and throughout Europe generally, is
an object of more or less interest,
and of more or less danger to the re-
public. Da Cana pardoned and pur-
suing the peaceful vocation Of run
Mug ferryboat at Rio de Janeiro,
for instance, is not romantic sub
ject at all. He would be absolutely
innocuous. President Peixoto should

CURIoUsLY enough the first person
of consequence who expressed the
opinion that the Premier Of England
ought to be member of the House
of Commons was the great Duke of
Wellington. On the overthrow of
the Melbourne Ministry in 1S41, act
ing on the advice Of the outgoing
Minister, the young Queen sent for
Wellington and asked him to form a
Cabinet The Iron Duke declined
the task, told the Queen that the
Premier should be a member OF the
popular assembly, and advised her to
send for Sir Robert Peel. Peel was
then counted one Of her enemies by
Victoria. She wept day over the
matter, then Peel was summoned and
became Premier. The precedent es-
tablished then of taking the Premier
from the House of Commons has been
frequently disregarded, however, as
in the case or Lord John Russell,
Lord Aberdeen, Lord Derby, Lord
Salisbury, and also in the case of
Lord Beaconsfield's last administra-
tiOn.

THE Brazilian revolution was one
of the best conducted on sanitary
grounds that we ever heard Of 1t
possessed prophylactic qualities of a
high order. Almost as many people
are killed by falling downstairs In
Chicago as lost their lives in the
"bastiles" In Rio harbor. There was
a great deal of wild shooting of guns
and mouths--but most Of the IA
talities were caused by accidents.
Surrender Is the outcome Of Admiral
Benham's stand with regard to, the
attempt Of Da Cana to institute a
blockade. Up to the time when the
American sailor denied the right of
the insurgents to designate the un-
loading place for two American mer-
chantmen there had been no inter-
ference with what was practically a
blockade. Hundreds of ships lay out
in the harbor unable to discharge
cargo. But when Benham notified
the rebel that he must not hinder
American ships all the merchant fleet
loosed and moved to the piers. The
episode marked the end OF the re-
bellion, for Da Gama's only hope Of
success lay in his ability to destroy
commerce with Rio. His downfall
will be unregretted, for the opinion
is strong that he was disguised roy
alist working for the restoration Of
the old empire.

SOME miscreants, who had gotten
into the Yellowstone Park, have
chased and exterminated the last Of
the herd of buffalo which had been
preserved within its precincts by the
United States Government at such
trouble and expense. Unless there
be some still left north OF our Cana
dian border, this interesting bovine
animal is now wholly extinct The
millions that populated our Western
prairies are gone. The white man
found the quadruped easier to kill
and eat than the Indian, and it has
disappeared even in advance of the
disappearance of the red man. Here
and there some domesticated buffalo
are preserved, which may perpetuate
in captivity race which exists no
longer In wild and natural condition,
but these are all Of the bison Ameri-
canus that now survive. The Indian
no longer feeds on buffalo hump. He
lives on a reservation, and his gov
eminent agent brings him at such
and such intervals so many cattle to
slaughter and eat without the
trouble OF hunting them. He has
abandoned the chase and betakes
himself to civilized roast beef and
fried chicken. The diet Of the wig
wan changes the habits and manners

Girls, Corresponding.


Here is a good suggestion for the
girls. 1t relates to an ingenious
scheme devised by class of young
ladies at school together few years
ago. One Of them, an English girl,
thus explains 1t:
There were nine Of us in the class,
and we were all promising to write to
each other continually, but in our
hearts we knew that such CORE
spondence could never be kept up.
Finally one OF the girls suggested a
circular letter, and the idea pleased
US all.
sAt the expiration of one month
from the time we parted the first girl
wrote a letter telling what she had
been doing and everything about her
self which would be likely to interest
the others. This letter was sent to
the second girl, who, after read
ing 1t, wrote her own letter, and sent
the two to the third.
"The third, fourth, fifth, and all
the Others In turn added their let
tiers, until the ninth on the list sent
them all to the first. Then the cir
cult was complete, and we had the
circulating letters fairly under way.
aNow, of course, the envelope al
ways contains niue letters, and each
girl, when it comes to her, takes out
her own letter, writes new one tell
ing what she has been doing In the
meantime, and starts 1t on Its travels
again.
.You can have no idea how inter
esting It Is to receive the letters, and
how anxiously we all await their ar
rival when our turn comes. We have
kept It up for nearly four years. and

A Boys Composition on Breathing.

BOYS composition on breathing.
Breath is made of air. We breathe
with our lungs, our liver and kid
neys. If it wasn't for our breath we
should die when we slept. Our
breath keeps the life a-going through
the nose when we are asleep Boys
that stay In room all day should
not breathe. They should wait till
they get out of doors. Boys in a
room make bad, unwholesome air.
They make carbonicide. Carbonicide
is poisoner than mad dogs. A heap
of soldiers was in black hole In In.
dia, and carbonicide got in that
there hole and killed nearly every
one afore morning. Girls kill the
breath with corosits that squeezes

THE recent death of John T. Ford
is striking reminder that this coun-
try is not so far away, after all, from
the time when the curtain closed on
the great tragedies Of the war. Ford
was successful theatrical manager
at Baltimore and Washington pre-
vious to the war and while it was. in
progress. Since its close he has con-
tinued in the same business, and he
was very wealthy man at the close
OF his career. Many of the noted
actors of the last forty or fifty years
acquired distinction under his man
agement, some beginning the prac-
tice of their profession under his d.
rection and tutorship. Among them
were John S. Clark, John T. Ray
mond, Stuart Robson, John w. Al
baugh, George G. Boniface, Robert
Emmett Graham, Oliver ID. Byron,
G. B. Bishop, Mary Anderson, Mag
gle Mitchell, Minnie Palmer, and the
Chapman sisters. John Wilkes Booth
was a member of his Baltimore COM
pany, and Edwin Forrest, w. j.
Florence, all the Booths, Joe Jeffer-
son, Macready, and other stars often
performed on his stage. He was the
owner of Ford's Theater In Washing
ton, where the assassination Of Abra-
ham Lincoln occurred. The theater
never opened again as such. Ford
was arrested for completely in the
crime, but was soon discharged.

RELIGIOUS controversy is, after all,
the bitterest and most wrath-provok-
ing of all forms of argument. At a
Vanceburg, KY, prayer meeting the
other night Deacon Lawhern was
powerfully uplifted and prayed with
great strength and eloquence. After
the services he was congratulated up
on his effort by Deacon Dills, who,
however, ventured to call his atten-
tion to what he deemed flavor OF
heresy in certain part of the prayer.
Deacon Lawhern repealed the insinu-
alton; Deacon Dills reiterated his
assertion; Deacon Lawhern felt it
his duty to say that Deacon Dills was
a falsifler; Deacon Dills retorted that
Deacon Lawhern was another; Dea-
con Lawhern seized stone and hit
Deacon Dills in the neck; Deacon
Dills clinched with bacon Lawhern
and bit his thumb off: Deacon Law
hern drew slungshot and caved in
Deacon Dills' head and would have
dispatched him to his heavenly home
altogether if the pastor had not in
terfered. The whole affair was most
unfortunate, and as it turns out, ut
terly useless, because at last accounts
Deacon Lawhern still maintains his
orthodoxy, while Deacon Dills still
proclaims him to be hereto. There
is no more use disputing about doc
trine than there is in disputing about
