IF the command Of the British fleet at Rio does
not propose TO protect British subjects following
lawful vocations. it is difficult TO understand why
he is there at all.
"'The ST. Jamcss Gazette" says: Surely Lord

The Globe" says: admiral Benham is doubtless
at liberty TO bully the insurgents as much as he
pleascs. But that is quite 4 different thing from
Offering most injurious Insult to the British Navy.
Unless the story of his putting the Nasmyth under

should be the duty OF the British Government to
demand immediate apology from the Govern

Bombarding at Rio.

LONDON, Jan. IA dispatch from
Buenos Ayres, dated yesterday, says ad-
vices from Rio have reached there show
ing that rumors are currentin the Bra
zilian. capital that many members of the
national guard are deserting and going
over to the insurgents. Several persons,
including number of Italians, shave
been killed by shells fred by the insur-
gents into the middle of the city.
Friends of the Italians have demanded
indemnity. The government has in
formed the foreign residents that twill
not accept any liability. The govern
ment forces are bombarding the insur-

FLOWERS. SHRUBS AND TREES.

THE great oaks in Waverly, Mass,
are survivors of an oak forest that
must have existed in that region. ac-
cording to the geologists, as far back
as the tenth century.
IT is stated that one New Yorker
living opposite Central park expends
one hundred and fifty dollars monthly
upon his roof garden, and there are
no less than six such parterres in the
city.
ORCHIDS are comparatively new to
florists and the public, but they are
becoming more common, and at the
same time more perfect, every year. In
spite of the fact that they arc very
expensive, as indeed all the choice
blooms are nowadays, they are often
seen in the florists supplies.
AS THE season for lifting dahlias is
here, it may be well to say that the
roots ought to be turned stems down
ward as soon as the tops are cut off.
and kept SO until spring. The losses
of dahlias during the winter, other
wise than by freezing, are mostly
caused by neglect of this precaution.

AN OLD IDEA.

DIR. julius Goe5el, professor of
Germanic philology and. literature at
Stanford university, says that Goethe
received most of his ideas on geography
from his intimate friend Herder, the
father of the science in Germany, who.
in his turn, had been disciple of
Baron Won Humboldt. They had MANY
erroneous ideas, says the San Fran
cisco Chronicle, but that is not sur
prising when it is considered that in
the middle of the last century certain
parts of the earth were supposed to be
inhabited by giants and certain other
parts by dwarfs.
Goethe conceived the universe to
consist of earthly, sidereal and celestial
elements. Each star, he thought, was
governed by a separate spirit That
of the earth was personal being
known as the earth spirit. 1t was the
personifcation of the eternal creative
element of nature.
Goethe's ideas of the geography of
America are full OF interest to us. It
was one hundred years ago when he
wrote, in speaking of cutting canal
through the .isthmus of Panama:
Humboldt suggests that there are
rivers on the isthmus that uwouId
render the cutting of canal at other
places more advisable than at Pana-
ma. 1t would surprise me greatly if
the people of the United States should
not before long have settled that vast
country west of the Rocky mountains
On the Pacific coast are some of the
finest and most capacious harbors of
the world. On these great cities will
grow up, making ship canal across
the isthmus an altogether indispens-
able'thing."

EDITOR STEAD ON CHICAGO.
Says the City Councilmen Are No
Better Than Thieves.

Says the. City Councilmen Are No
Better Than Thieves.
CHICAGO, Jan. l7.-William T. Stead
made an address at the Peoples Insti-
tute on the West Side last night, and
abused everything Chicago possesses.
His object was to show up the seamy
side of life in this city, including the rich
men who rob right and left, and the
women who sell their bodies in order to
get bread. He took fling at the city
council, denouncing it as being composed
in the main of men who came from the
very lowest elements of the city, and
said the idea of such men legislating for
such great city as Chicago was absurd.
He intimated that many of the members
of the city council were little better
than thieves, and he was literally ap-
plauded for the sentiment. The wealthy
woman who thinks only of herself and
neglects her hungry and down-trodden
sisters, came in for share of attention.
The speaker drew pictures between the
woman rolling in wealth, who because of
her social position and her fear of losing
it kept herself free from talnt, and the
poor woman, who, harrassed by want
and poverty, threw herself into the
gutter to get bread to keep her from
starving. Mr.. Stead did not think tie
society woman was any better than her
weaker sister, who however pure in
heart she might be, was compelled by
force of circumstances to abandon
moral life. Stead's words in discussing
this phase of life were go broad that
most of the women in the audience
blushed with shame, and some of them
left the hall.

Casualties and General
News.
REscUING PARTY ALSO LOST

New YORK, Jan. 1.-THE Dutch
steamer Amsterdam, from Rotterdam,
arrived this morning. She reports a
succession of gales and tremendous seas.
Sunday last, during a northwest gale,
she sighted what was supposed to be the
American fishing schooner Maggie E.
Wells, of Gloucester, Mass, in sinking
condition, and with her boats stove. In
response to signals for assistance, Chief
Officer J. Meyers, Second Boatswain
Erequart, Carpenter A. J. Oudyn, Stor-
age Steward A. Boso, Quartermaster F.
M. Elchhorn, Seaman A. Vanvleet and
Seaman A. Vanterwilt volunteered to
man boat to rescue the crew of the
sinking vessel, numbering about IA.
When the boat neared the unfortunate
vessel it capsized in a squall and all
perished except Vanterwilt. Another
crew volunteered, but the captain
thought it too hazardous, and decided to
wait till the gale subsidized. The steamer
kept in the neighborhood, but in very
heavy gale and snow storm lost sight of
the schooner, and thereafter was unable
to find any trace of her. It is believed
she foundered with all on board.
The schooner Maggie E. Wells left
Gloucester, Mass, December 23d for
Grand Banks, after trip for fresh hall
but. No news has been received from
her yet. The crew consisted of Captain
Davidson and 13 men.

BONDS TO BE ISSUED.
One oner Received to Take the whole
Lot.

Lot.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 1.-THE secretary
of the treasury will soon, probably this
evening, offer to the pablo enough bonus
to replenish the gold reserve to the ex-
tent to which it will have been depleted
February lst, when it will probably be
reduced to from sec, ,00O, 900 to $65, ,O0O,-
900. The bonds will be 10-year 5 per
cent bonds, but must sell for enough to
make them really per cent bonds. An
offer has been received from one person
to take all the bonds issued, but the
secretary prefers that the general public
shall have an opportunity to bid for
them.
CIRCULAR INVITING PROPOSALS.
Secretary Carlisle this afternoon is
sued circular inviting proposals for
$50, ,O00, 600 5 per cent bonds redeemable
after ten years. Allotments of bonds
will be made to the highest bidders
therefor, but no proposal will be con-
sidered at lower price than liz. 7.223,
which is the equivalent of the per
cent bond at par. The bonds to be in
denominations of $50 and upwards.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 17.-It is believed
Secretary Carlisle contemplates taking
prompt action on the bond question in
view of what appears to be the imprac-
ticability of securing, early relief from
congress. Guarded statements made by
treasury officials today, together with
other significant facts, form the basis
for this belief. An official statement is
unobtainable.

Protection for Western Manufacturers
of Barley Product.
WAsHINGToN, Jan. 1.-THE democratic
members of the ways and means COM
mittee have decided on an important
amendment to the pending tariff bill. 1t
covers the item of barley, but its effect
will tend to the extensive manufacture
of beer and its various other products.
The rate already prepared in the Wilson
bill is 20 per cent ad valorem. Whiting
proposed that this scale be advanced to
80 per cent, and after much discussion
the amendment was agreed to-. The
change is said to be of special interest to
the beer industry of the west, which
uses American barley, and against the
eastern beer industry, which draws its
supply of barley from Canada.

The getting it down is bad enough, with
the ordinary pill. But the having it
down is worse. And, after all the dis

From beginning to end, DIR. Pierce's
Pellets are better. They're the smallest
and easiest to take-tiny, sugar-coated
granules that any child is ready for.
Then they do their work so easily and

are guaranteed to give satisfaction, or

A NOTED CROOK DEAD.


BALTIMORE, June THE old man sup
posed to be Alexander Stewart who was
asphyxiated by gas ON Monday. is said to
be none other than Edward Lilly, at one
time one of the most notorious confidence
men, forgers and boarding house thiev es
in the country. His picture adorns the
pages of Criminals of America He was
known as Henry A. Watson throughout
this country and Canada as most accom-
plished crook. He was Arrested in New
York in 1915 for getting $500 worth of fur
niture for worthless check of $3.50 and
receiving SlG0 in change. For this he got
two years and six months in prison. His
next exploit was in 1872 when he stole
money and jewelry to the extent of 81 200
from a boarding house in Washington
square, New York. In this case there was
lack of evidence, and Lilly went free.
In 1885 he swindled New Yorker out
of $3.50 and an Englishman whom he met
on an Anchor line steamer, out of l02 soy.
ereigns. For this he served five years in
the penitentiary. Lilly also had record
in Baltimore. On Jan. o, 1880, he was
picked up as a Suspicious character, and
was ordered to leave town. A few days
later he was again captured and ordered
to give the city wide berth In early
life Lilly was tent and awning maker in
Washington, and is believed TO have been
born either there or in this city. Marks
that led to l.illy's Identification were the
drawings of sloop and an owl in India
