THE ExlLEs OF ENGLAND.
Their Tombs and Memorials Scattered all 9-..ara... Over Europe.


 4Tas.es,n Over Europe.
 No doubt we have driven out our own exi1es as we'll as received the. exiles of foreign states, although not in the, same proportion and measure. ThereAA are tombs of Stuarts ill Italy, and thereAis a church in Rome where have rested for centuries the remains of the greatest Irish rebel who ever stood up against the English crown. But the ashes of any Stuart would be welcome to rest ing place here if it were so desired, and if the plot of earth which holds the body of the gallant Tyrone were to be incor- porated with the soil of any English cemetery no Englishman would make objection, and indeed we fear that very few Englishmen would know who the Earl of Tyrone was. There is some sat- isfaction in thinking that an English man travelling in foreign countries finds little of mute reproach in the graven names of exiles on tombstones. The bearing home in triumph of some ban ished mans coffin is often the crown of political party's endeavor. Sometimes, too, the refusal to allow of the bringing home makes man and party popu lar. We can most of us remember we'll how the father of the late President Car not became in a moment a popular idol out of comparative obscurity because he sternly refused to allow the remains of his own father to be brought back to France from a grave in Magdeburg.
 It was i'll the zenith of the second empire, and Napoleon III thought he could do popular thing, and indeed perhaps sincerely felt the desire to be generous, when he offered to the Car not family to restore in triumph to France the coffin of the organizer of vic tory. Carnot. the son, sternly refused to accept the invitation. His father, he said, had given his genius and his life to the service of the French republic. His body should never rest in 6 land which was governed by imperial des- potism. Perhaps the late President Car not might never have been the chief magistrate of French republic if his father had not thus peremptorily and publicly rejected the offer of Napoleon III. Time came round, and the empire is gone, and the Carnot tradition had it's revenge. Napoleon III, to do him justice, was not ungenerous ill his deal ing with political opponents, at all events with political opponents whom he thought no longer able to work him harm. It is not easy, however, to make safe calculation in that way. The man in the coffin is sometimes able to work moro harm to the ruling system than the orator ill the political tribune.- l London Telegraph.

A French Custom.

When bullock is to be slaughtered in some parts of France, he is taken round with a drummer and bids fare we'll to earth. The crier, or tambouri- neur, as he is generally called, because he carries drum, is one of the institu- tions of rural France A traveller in the valley of the Cele says, in Wander ings by Southern Waters" that he found the tambourineur making the rounds of a town, Justify beating his drum to awaken the curiosity of the in- habitants, and accompanied by an OK, which he introduced to the public as, ''Le boeuf lei present." "
 The crier's business is to announce to all whom it may concern that the ami nal is to be killed this very evening; and that tomorrow morning it's flesh will be sold at franc 25 centimes the kilo. It will all go at uniform price, for this is the custom. Those who want the aloyau, or sirIoin, will only have to be in haste. Bow Bells.

Treating In New Mexico Is Fraught With

 The man from New Mexico and his friend stood against the bar in one of the palatial saloons of Chicago. The dis penser put out four glasses.
 "Where's your beeswax?" asked the New Mexico visitor.
 ''I'm not on, responded the dispens- CT.
 ''Never tend bar ill New Mexico?"
 The dispenser said he had never had the pleasure.
 Pleasure nothing. 'Tain't no pleas, ure, I'm tellin you. It's much as a mars life is worth. But see you don't savey about the beeswax We'll, I'll tell you how they drink in New Mexico. There's only one thing to drink, that's whisky-liquor, see? The bartender sets up one glass. He ain't got no whole lot of glasses like you. He just sets up one big glass. Then he takes out his bees wax, and he marks the glass for as many drinks as there are drinkers in the par ty. Say there's three. He puts two bees wax marks on the glass about so far apart. Then he fills the glass with liq- nor to the rim of the glass. The first man in the party drinks down to the first beeswax mark, and then he passes the glass to the next man, and he drinks down to thessecond beeswax mark, and the third man drinks to the bottom of the glass. It ain't safe for man to go below his beeswax mark. A man in New MexGo who'd do that wouldn' t live long enough to send his wife g dy.

Closing on Popular stocks.

NEW YORK. Nov. 30-There perhaps
can be said TO have been a slight i'm
provement in the speculative sentiment
of the past week, but it is hardly per
ceptible The bear interests were in con-
troll and the Industrial shares stand for
more than two-thirds of the transactions.
Professionals hammered the indus
trial list, but they did not hold,
and the entire list closed strong
today, with an advance of AZ points
from the low point in sugar. The sharp
tumble in the industrial list is attracting
attention. and causing considerable I'm
easiness on the part of those interested
The feeling generally on these special
ties is decidedly bearish, due, not as
many enormously suppose to manipula-
ton. but to the vulnerable position
of the companies, or rather
trusts, themselves. In times of pros
perity everything goes along swim
mingly with them and no one stops to in :
quire how much of the capitalization is
water, how much represents good will,
or how much practically nothing. When
conditions change this is quickly discov-
cred by the rapidity with which the
sharss decline in the market through
lack of support of the very people who
know most about the properties. Just
now the prospects of these concerns are
not very roseate; they are threatened
with legislative and legal troubles.

mors have been rife for some time that a
party of British spectators, who have
made several fortunes in the South Afri-

raid on the stocks of Cripple Creek. to
buy up a number of claims, stock them
for large amounts, and, after trading the
stock back and forth among themselves,

letting go at the top wave, leaving
the purchasers with stock worth

have been heard in Cripple Creek and
naturally enough people have been

this gigantic swindle. 1t is said none of

SHAME ON THEM.

Seventy American Students Fail to De-
fond Our Flag against Ten Canadians
TORONTO, Ont, Nov. 30-Excitement
still continues over an incident that &C.
Cured here Thursday in the lecture
room of the Toronto Veterinary college.
A number of the American students at
the college proceeded to CELEBRATE
Thanksgiving Day by hosting the stars
and stripes in the lecture room. There
were about $50 students in the hall at the
time, three fourths of the number being
from the states. The Canadians objected
to being lectured under the American flag
and proceeded to tear it up. After
tussle they succeeded in hauling it down,
but the American students were not dis
mayed and proceeded to chalk out their
country's flag on the black board. A gem
eral fight ensued, which was continued
for over half an hour, but the Canadians
gained their point and the flag was put
out of sight and the figure in chalk
erased.
William Shaw a student from New
York hal hung up the flag just after DR..
Smith, the principal had finished his
morning lecture.
A student from Lindsay Ont, at oncs
seized the flag aud tore it down. He
was Immediately seized by Shaw, but in
the scrap that resulted between these
Two CHaW got the worst OIL
it. He was thrown violently
against bench and his face was badl y
cut. The American students felt that
Shaw's action in putting up the flag was
not such as should have warranted the
attack on their country's flag, and they
decided to defend it. They were annoyed
at the rough handling Shaw had received.
Many of them piled into the Canadians
and a fight between seventy Americans
and ten Canadians went on for some
time. w. w. Richards, a big student
from California, who says he was taught
the science of pugilism by Jim Cor bett
did some severe hitting aud had single
com bat with big Canadian from Huron
county. The arrival of DR.. Duncan, who
was to deliver the next lecture after the
principal. had the effect of quelling the
row, but the matter was brought to the
attention of DR.. Smith, and he will likely
take some action in the matter.
There is a good deal of i'll feeling over
the matter, especially as the flag was not
put up again nor the representation of it
replaced on the black board, owing to
the arrival of the professors and some of
the older students, who used their in
fluence in stopping the row. Some of
the students presented quite sorry ap-
pearance, several having received cut
faces.
