a kindly act of charity privately per-
formed by the Princess OF Wales with
cut Il thought of advertisement is now
causing her much inconvenience. Some
weeks ago the attention Of tho princess
was drawn TO the sadly destitute condi-
tion Of IA Mrs. Thomas, ceutenarian
living at Burryport, ard the ancient
dame was made happy by a handsome
donation. This camo 10 the knowledge
OF the local reporters. who naturally
doomed royal benevolence The results
that the princess is simply overwhelmed
with applications for assistance on be-
half Of aged men and women and to
Judge from her correspondence there
must be thousands OF centonarians in
this happy country.
Public notice has been given that the
princess can give no more, but tho
stream OF letters continues to flow to
Marlborough House and Sandringham,
and Miss Knollys, the chief private sec
Tetary, has been driven to devise litho-
graphed form Of regretful refusal. Many
OF the applications arc undoubtedly
genuine. One from Llanolly, Wales, for

THE BARsNoFskI ASSAULT.
The Prisoner Discharged by Judge Robin
son Saturday.

The Municipal court room was crowed
Saturday with Hebrews and Poles when
the case of alleged assault by Lavnski,
Smith and Tonistis was brought up
Barsnovski, the complainant, appeared
all right except slight swelling under
his eye.
Great difficulty was experienced in
berg said he couldn't talk the patois of
that province. Samuel Bernstein said
that he could. but Judge Robinson
thought his relations with the prisoner
would forbid Finally a low browed,
swarthy fellow said he could talS the
language, and through him the COM
plainant said his business was that of
peddling rags. He identified the three
prisoners as the man who assaulted him.
Lavinski he said, was the first one to
strike him, because Lavinsik had put a
man named Anton in Jail for debt and
the complainant said he would be wit
ness against Lavinski A man named
Punski testified that he was attracted to
the shop where the prisoners were beating
the complainant, and finally threw him
out of doors, and he helped him to Anton
Miller's, where he boarded. Officer
Skillings testified he was called to the
complainant, but couln't find that he was
injured, except the swelling under the
eye. and the complainant said he was
suffering great pain in the abdomen.
The prisoners claimed that it was
quarrel between Lavinski and Bar
snoyski. Smith said he tried to separate
them and was struck. Lavinski had
claimed he couldn't understand Punski's
testimony as to the assault with a brick,
which was in English. Judge Robinson
asked him how he could understand
Panski's English, but not his, the
Judges.
The Judge discharged the prisoners as
the evidences was SO meagrely obtained
through the interpreters, and the
prisoners did not appear to have material
ly suffered.

THE WAR CRISIS.
Rev. DR.. Dalton's Sermon at St. stephens
Church.

Rev. DR.. Dalton repeated his sermon
of Sunday, December 22d. on "The War
Crisis with England" by request yester-
day, digest of which was published at
the time In the PRESS. Yesterday he
added to the sermon such additional
matter as the subsequent events had
given rise to. He took for his text. ST.
James ILL.,, S, ''Behold how great a
matter little fire kindleth."
These words, the Doctor said, ap tly
describe the sudden and fiery ebulition
of the war spirit. Happily we have Ehad
time for reflection, the sober second
thought. Some of these reflections are: :,
"a Our ouIpable want of preparation
for war with any nation with navy.
New York. Boston and Portland above
all would be at the mercy Of the enemy,
for we have no adequate defences. The
West has voted generally against appro-
priations for defence. Now they lave
voted for war.
{2) The Monroe doctrine declares that
no part of this continent is any longer
open to European colonization, and we
should regard any attempt to extend the
European system to either America as
threatening to our peace and safety.
Dr. Dalton thought that the boundary
dispute In Venezuela did not infringe
either declaration.
(3) Venezuela and the Spanish Repub-
llcs generally. are military despotisms,
nearly always at war, without or within,
at home or abroad. They are no wise
amenable TO. us, and really jealous of
our overshadowing grr atness the recent
demonstrations, proving nothing to the
contrary. They would quickly and hotly
resent any attempt on our part to control
their action. just now they are likely to
force our hand By their hasty and pre-
cipitate uprising. They are always in hot
water, and will keep US in hort water, if
we ally ourselves with them.
| az just here, we may ask what has
become of our time-honored national
watchwords of manifest Destiny"
Mastery Inactivity "No Entangling
Alliances etc. Never were they more
applicable and necessary.
No nation can, in the long run. com :
pete with us on this continent. We can,
and shall overtake and submerge all
rivals, ana that by peaceful means.
(5) No one nation can conquer or in
the end wage successful war, with us; !;
but if England should have as allied
France and Germany, the com mbinatlon
would be too strong for us. This she
might succeed in doing by a proposal to
seize South America, and divide it among
the robbers as Poland was.
AS to our jingoes II they are spelling
for fight, why not go to Cuba where
they would lind something worth fighting

A GREENLAND SLEDGE JOURNEY.
Was the Topic for Lieut. Peary's Lecture
in the stockbridge Conrse.

Lieut.. Robert e. Peary, u. S. N, the
famous Greenland exr roller. delivered the
lecture in the Stock bridge course Satur-
day evening at City hall, on his second
and last sledge journey across the great
ice cap of Greenland, illustrated by many
beautiful stereocoptic views.
After very graceful introduction by
May or Baxter, Lieut.. Peary said it was
due to no fault of his, or his methods,
that his party had not gone further north.
He spoke of the comparative cheapness of
Arctic exploration and said that if any
one would devote $40, 900 year for ten
years to it he believed every gap in the
Arctic map of the Western Hemisphere
would be filled. He advocated small
parties for Arctic exploration.
Lieut.. Peary said it was August 2Sth,
1894, when he bade farewell to the Falcon
in Smith Sound. He detailed his warm
reception by his Eskimo friends. He gave
an interesting description Eof the great
walrus hunt. He told of the sufferings
he and his party endured on the first two
days march upon the great Greenland ice
cap. For six days and nights the s.most
accursed he every spent upon the great
ice." Peary and Mott lay in their sleep
ing bag while the storm ragged For three
days they could only live and listen and
not sleep. Three feet of snow fell on a
level and all efforts to find the cache of
provisions failed.
After describing the long Arctic night
and how dreary and monotonous was their
camp life. Lieut.. Peary narrated the in
cidents of the journey northward over the
ice cap. The party consisted of Peary,
Lee, Henson, six Esk imos and 63 dogs
and five sledges, but only four of the
natives aud three Of the sledges were to
go beyond the moraine. They started
Monday, April /, 1895. Midnight of the
following Saturday found them 124 miles
from the Inoraine and $500 feet above
the sea- Three or four days after this the
dogs, 40 in mum her, made an attack upon
the walrus meat. They had a fearful
struggle in snhduing and tieing them.
After this they marched day after day
across the great ice cap, till they reached
an altitude of 5000 feet into the frozen
air around the pols. Several days later
they reached the east coast 1t was high
time. The dog food was all gone ex oept
200 pounds reserved for the home journey
The 40 dogs were reduced to il poor
brItes scarcely able to walk On the
shore they were able to find the musk
oxen which saved their lives. In speak
Ing of the killing of the first bull Lieut..
Peary said: Heart and soul and brain
went with that bullet. l felt that was
gaunt and strong and hungry and wolf
enough, that hau the bull been alone,
could have sprung upon him bare handed
and torn the life blood from his throat. .
The story of their return journey over
the ice cap was told with thrilling power
and eloquencs.
