The latest in the way Of the un-
expected is the proposition of
Great Britain to go partnership
with the United States in the con-
troll of Nicaragua canal and the
general insurance of the Latin
American states against any inter-
ference on the part Of the European
monarchies. There is a peculiar
and very fine-haired arrangement
of the average British mind as to
American affairs or this would not
be proposed, as Great Britain Is
the only European monarchy that
is showing the least disposition to
monkey with these western repub-
lies. 1t is as though the foxes
should propose to go into part
nership with the geese in looking
after the goslings, and it is safe to
say that this country is not ready
to enter into any arrangements OF
that kind. 1t would be fat for the
fox, but death to the goslings, and
in time there would be no geese.
A great scheme for John Bull. The
deduction is plain that Great Brit
ain thinks this present democratic
administration fool enough to
acquiesce in anything that might
be proposed by the Cleveland con-
tingent across the water. The only
obstacle in the way is the opposi-
ton of the people to Growers
foreign policy.

HE WASN'T CUTTING GRASS.

UNNECESSARY Questions.

Boston Man, Caught In the Act, Answers
Unnecessary Questions.
Johnes' house is so situated that his
back yard is completely hemmed in by
the back yards of neighbors with whom
he is upon speaking terms.
AS Johnes is one of the most sociable
fellows in the world he rather likes
this arrangement, and from his ham
mock he every pleasant evening car
ries on lively conversation with these
neighbors to the satisfaction of all con-
cerned.
But it has its inconvenient side, as
Johnes realized the other night when
sickle in hand, he started to trim the
grass.
Smith was the first neighbor to dis
cover Johnes at work, and he opened
the ball with: "Ah, there, old man,
cutting the grass, eh?"
Johnes allowed that ne was cutting
grass and incidentally remarked that
unless Smith called his pet cat over
into its own yard the chances were
good for puss finishing her existence
on wooden legs.
The cat came back.
Then johnson came out, filled his
pipe, strolled up to the fence and in.
quired: "What are you up to now,
Johnes; cutting your GRASP"
Johnes replied that it ought to be
evident to a man possessed of good
eyesight that he was doing something
of the kind.
'Wel, there's no use in getting up
pish about it, is there?" queried Jonn-
son.
Before Johnes could reply, Neighbor
Allen had come upon the scene.
"Well, we'll, WELL" said he, sim glad
to see you working. Cutting the grass
eh?"
''No, sir" shouted Johnes, 'Tm

middle of bed of pansies that his
wife had set out that afternoon, he
walked into the house.
