A Short Sentence,

MT. Justice Maui once addressed 8 phenomenon of innocence as follows: Prisoner at the bar, your counsel thinks you innocent; the counsel for the prosecution thinks you innocent; l think you innocent. But jury of your own countrymen, in the exercise of such common sense as they possess, which does not seem to be much, have found you guilty, and it remains that should pass upon you the sentence of law. That sentence is, that you be kept in imprisonment for one day; and, as that day was yesterday, you may now go about your business"

Denied at WaShinQtOn,

WASHINGTON, Jan. 1.-The report cur rent in Montevideo that Peixoto was negotiating with United States Minis ter Thompson looking to the lnterven- tion of the United States fleet at Rio in accom- plishing a settlement of Brazilian difficulties was denied by officials of the state and navy departments today. Secretary Herbert said if any such movement was contemplated he was not informed of it. The state depart ment has no information of such ne- gotiations from Minister Thompson and no instructions have been sent to take such action. Corroboration was se- cured for the report that the United States and German authorities had together taken action to prevent the rebel forces from again attacking Rio or doing damage to it.

THE AMERICAS CUP.
It Was First Sailed for Over Forty Year
 Ago.

It Was First Sailed for Over Forty Years
 Ago.
 The first race for the cup, now known as the America's cup, was sailed around the Isle of Wight on August 22, 1851, says the Philadelphia Press. Of the yachts that sailed the seas in those days the gallant old America, full of years and honors, is probably the only one now in commits sion. The Royal yacht squadron had offered cup open to competition by yachts of all nations. The America was lying at Cowes, and her owners were anxious to get match race with representative British yacht. Con- modore Stevens entered the America in this open race. There were six schooners, one three-master of three hundred and ninety-two tons, and eight cutters in the race. The Ameri- ca was the last yacht to get off. She ran wing-and-wing, her mainsail out on one side and her foresail out on the other, and very soon had sailed grand ly through the fleet, reaching the schooner Beatrice and the cutters Au- rora, Volante and Arrow, which were leading. Finally the America, by very sllillful lodging, managed to get into the lead.
 The Yankee boat with the wind free had shown superiority over the Eng fish vessels. And when it came to windwardwCrk she proved that she was equally superior. She worked to the windward so speedily that by the time the point was reached there was not a yacht in sight from her decks. The wind now died down and strong head tide was encountered, against which the America made little head way. This gave the fleet, which had not yet caught the full strength of the tide, a chance to creep up on her. The little cutter Aurora and the cutter Arrow nearly caught up with the America, but the rest of the fleets were miles astern. At St. Catherine's the Arrow went aground and was out of the race, but the little Aurora clung to the America admirably. The wind now freshened again and the America drew away rapidly from her plucky little rival. After getting by St. Catherine's the America had leading wind, and easing off her sheets tore through the water in magnificent style and swept toward Cowes, re- markable winner. The defeated Eng fish yachts were two days altogether in getting into port. The dismay of the English yachtsmen and all Great Britain at the terrible defeat given by the little black Yankee is almost a matter of international history.
 Commodore Stevens had tried be- fore the big race for match very hard and had posted in the Royal squadron's castle challenge to sail against any yacht for from one thousand to ten thousand guineas, but the English were afraid of the Yankee from his first appearance and the challenge was never accepted-

FUN FOR LITTLE LAPS.

Street Vendors Go About with Charcoal
 Stoves on Which Children Bake Cakes.
 Japan has been frequently referred to as the 'Children's Paradise" and with considerable justice, for in. nc other country is childhood made so much of and are children surrounded by so many devices for their amUSe- ment. In every town, according to Dr. W. D. Eastlake in the Popular Science Monthly, there are numbers of street vendors and hawkers whose sole GUS toners are children.
 One class of these vendors carry two charcoal stoves, or furnaces, swung in the conventional manner of the country from the ends of pole which rests across the shoulder. Arriving at con- venient corner, the load is put down, and a group of eager children quickly gather. For the moderate sum of one or two rin the children are supplied with @ tiny cup of sweetened batter and a spoon. Thus equipped, they proceed to bake their own cookies on the smooth iron top of the stoves, fash ioning the dainties into whatever shape they please, and, when they are crisp and brown, devouring them. The anne vender also devotes his skill to children. His stock in trade" consists of dried reeds and a quantity of midzu anne. a sort of malt paste. Some of the anne is put on the end of reed and is nodded or blown into some fantastic shape by the vender. The young GUS toner dictates as to the figure, and butterflies, flowers, gourds, or what rot are shaped from the sweet paste. The children, after having satisfied their taste for artistic design, eat the finished work, the reed handle prevent ing their fingers from becoming sticky.
 There is another of the child amusers that can be seen in the streets of Tokio or any other Japanese city. This arti- san molds fruits, flowers and vege- tables from colored rice-fower dough, and does his work so deftly that it is really difficult to distinguish the artif- cial from the real fruit.
 This universal love and regard for children is also displayed at every temple festival, where numerous booths, gay with toys, flags and games. form always prominent feature
