England has taken possession of Port

land sent it's ultimatum to the little re
public this country, through it's ambas.
sador at London, Thomas F. Bayard,
offered a protest, out the action does
not seem to have disturbed the policy Of
England to any great extent, a delay
of twelve hours being the only answer.
The above picture shows Chief Clar-
ence, the Mosquito chief, and his cabi-
net of advisers. At the instigation Of
British commercial interests they made
war on the Nicaraguan republic, but
were conquered and are now in Jail.
Their English s~ympathizers were ex-
PEELED from the country, and it is on
this act that England's present claim is
based.
While Americans will be inclined to
feel irritated at England's action, it
may, after all, be the best thing for
this country. In violating the Clayton
Bulwer treaty, that country unwilling
ly gives the United States the right to
avoid it's own responsibility, which may
soon be shown by entire dominion over
the Nicaraguan canal.

CURLING IRON.

Simple Pressure.

A Strand of Hair Rolls Around 1t BY
Simple Pressure.
A pair of curling irons with many
strong points of excellence have just
been brought out by an English firm.
The jaws are opened by means of the
small lever projecting, which is worked
by a finger or thumb Independently of
the grasp upon the main handles of
the appliance. Having gripped the
lock of hair to be curled in the jaws.
the turning of the iron is accomplished
in the simplest manner possible.
The longer arm of the iron passes
through a collar on the lower part of
the main handle, and terminates in q
pin, which works in a strut projecting
from the same. On the upper part Of
the handle, which hinges, is fixed a
ratchet which engages on a suitable
pinion on the spindle. BY simply
squeezing the two arms together the
tongs are caused to make a revolution
on their own axis, and so curl the
hair. 1t will be evident that with
very little practice the operation is
performed very rapidly, without the
firing process of turning the wrist and
without the necessity of relocating the

IN BOSTON HARBoR.


An island of Several Acres which Docs
Not Belong to This Government.
There is an island in the Boston
harbor and yet not of the United
States. 1t is a bare, bleak island of
several acres, only the ~coarsest Of
grass is found and there are no trees.
A man and his wife and two children
r the only inhabitants. The family
sustenance is derived entirely from
the sale of fish and Holsters, q Boston
restaurant buying the whole supply.
Before the present inhabitants went
there, q recluse, as the story goes,
lived in this comfortless spot. The
solitary thought he had a work to
perform-namely; the cutting of a
channel through the huge boulders;
he partially succeeded, as the crevasse
and the heaps of stones testify.
What his purpose was n cannot
imagine. A member of congress some
years ago wished to purchase this
island, but when the sale was about to
be contaminated no proof could be
discovered that the property belonged
or aver had belonged to the United
States. After much quibbling. how
ever, the purchase was made for a
triting sum. What the owner intends
to do with his possession no one seems
to know.

but as the case developed he pro-
nounced it a case of Landry's Paralysis
and knowing the nature of the disease,
advised me to start for my bone and

SHE WILL
Great Britain Accepts Nicaragua
Pfupositlon.

Proposition.
London, May Fin spite of the state
ment which had emanated from he
foreign office saying thai there had been
no change in the attitude Of Great Brit
am toward Nicaragua, it is learned
tnat Great Britain has agreed to the
settlement of the dispute with
nicaragua If the payment of the in
demnity is guaranteed. In this case the
British fleet will Immediately withdraw
from Corinto. 1t is not known what
guaranty Great Britain demands for
the payment of the indemnity, but it is
believed in official circles that the af-
lair is practically settled.
Washington, May 1.-The guaranty
OF h payment by Nicaragua of the
indemnity as required by Great Britain
Will be made in the amplest manner pos
sible, SO that there appears to be no
further obstacle between the two coun-
tries as to a final adjustment. The guar
anty will be in one of several forms, as
follows:
!. The promise of the N~icaraguan gov
eminent, which, in view of the fact
that the government has never default
ed on it's obligations, is of itself re-
garded as. a guaranty.
2. The Bank of Nicaragua, a national
institution with recognized standing in
London, will, if need be, give the guar
anty.
3. The republic of Guatemala, one Of
the richest of the Central American
states, stands ready to deposit ESQ., 900
In a London bank if Nicaragua desires
the favor.
4. The Nicaragua Canal company,
whose word in London would be accept
able in the highest financial circles, will
give either a guaranty or the cash if
need be.
