ENGLAND'S PREMIER.
Lord Salisbury Is Well Up In Science Ms
Well as Statecraft.

Personally Lord Salisbury is a deeply
read and cultured man. He spends n
good deal of time in his laboratory, is
very fond of chemistry, possesses much
practical knowledge of electricity, and
has delivered more than one able adj
dress before such bodies as the British
Association for the Advancement of
Science. He is not physically rs strong
as he looks, and the immense volume of
work he accomplishes, coupled with
very little exercise, makes him in real
ity a somewhat delicate man. In APP
Iearance he is impressive without be-
ing handsome, and his ordinary de-
meanor is one of apparent indifference
and aristocratic hauteur. Like him
self in character, his oratory is imperi
Gus, forcible and effective. At his fa-
Ilous seat in tfordshire-lIatfield
house-Queen Victoria has been more
than once entertained by Lord Sails
curry, as in Il past century his ancestry
entertained Queen Elizabeth, and there
lie thoroughly enjoys, whether in or out
of power, the generous country life
and open hospitality of the historical
and typical fine old English gentle
man."
Taken altogether, the present Eng
lish premier is an extraordinary and in
teresting figure in the politics of this
period. His patriotism is strong and
sincere, but it'rests upon the forms of
the constitution and upon loyalty to
the crown rather than upon the mod
crn principle of loyalty to the imme-
date and changeable will of a popular
democracy. And Lord Salisbury in
this case undoubtedly embodies the nat
ural hereditary and inherent conserva-
tism of the English people,. Castell

In Labrador and Newfoundland is
found partially web-footed New

The modern English greyhound is
not strong, but is very swift. He is
used only for hunting game in sight.
as his nose" or smelling power is very
defective.
The Scottish deerhound, descend
ant of the extinct Irish greyhound, is
used in Scotland for chasing the stag.
He was a favorite subject for SCOTS
poesy and Landseers brush.
The kangaroo dog is used in Aus
traia for chasing the kangaroo. He
is cross of the blood hound and the
greyhound, and pair of these valuable
animals recently sold for $3.50.
The greyhound, one of the most not
able of hunting dogs, was used in
Egypt at least 1900 years ago In
early days the greyhound was the
royal dog of England, and TO kill either
a hound or a stag was punishable by
death.
Among bird hunters allegiance is di-
vided between" the pointer and the set
ter. The latter is the better retriever
and the stronger animal; the former
is generally the more tractable and in
telligent. The pointer is derived from
an old Spanish breed of hounds, crossed
with the greyhound or foXhound.-

Fighting Bob Evans, of the United

thinks this government ought to show its
sympathy with the insurgents and take a
hand In the shindy. II he had his way no

United States; He gave the president
some powerful arguments to sustain that
view of the case. But the president
begged off and referred Fighting Bob to
Secretary Olney. who, he said, was look

time that Captain Evans was in Wash

Captain Evans expressed his views with
great freedom to the secretary of state

decision and said goodbye But he could
