HONORABLE PEACE.

II proof has been needed that Great
Britain had no intention-of pushing mat

States over the Venezuelan boundary dis

lament in the debate on the queens

benches nor the opposition was there a
single harsh note towards this country,
while Premier Salisbury's assurance that
he believed a satisfactory settlement
would be found and all danger of rup-

tons be entirely removed" disposes oil

wards the United States and Mr.. Balfour
stated that there was not the slightest
purpose indicated ION the part OF Eng
land to attack the substance or sense OF
the Monroe doctrine" Such sentiments
are in marked and refreshing contrast
with those of the lingo orators lately
beard in the halls of Congress.
While Britain's present tone ia most
satisfactory at the same time it is mani
fest that the Marquis Of Salisbury has
been forced to back down from the arro-
giant stand he took in his correspondence
with Secretary Olney. Then he clearly
intimated that the British government
would refuse to submit to arbitration any
territory which lay outside the Schom
burgk line. Now he imparts with al
most equal clearness that he is willing tt
refer the whole subject without restriction
or qualification. This is distinct vindi
cation OF the stand taken by this nation
and all that has at any time been de
manded. 1t is possible, of course, tina
Great Britain may come to satisfactor,
arrangement with Venezuela without thu
Intervention Of this government, but il
any event the United States will emerg
from the controversy with signal homo

The Indian affairs committee OF the
house OF representatives at Washington
has agreed to clause TO be incorporated
in the appropriation bill providing that
all children OF marriage between q
white man and an Indian woman shall
have the same rights and privileges to
the property and the annuitles of the
tribe to which the mother belongs as any
other member of the tribe. The reverse
of this proposition is now the law and the
desire of the committee is to remedy
what seems to have been an oversight
when the law was framed.

Another wonder in photography.


Hardly has the world had time to re.
cover from its establishment over the won
derful discovery Of Professor Roeutgen in
the sphere OF photography, when the
news is wired from Brandenburg OF an
epoch-making discovery which already
excites the greatest interest IN scientific,
commercial aud industrial circles The
world OF art, also, is threatened with
a formidable competitor. DIR. Zelle, Of
Brandenburg, has invented photograph
ic instrument which will in minute de-
tails reproduce the various colors OF OBJ
iects, persons and landscapes, brought
within specified range OF the camera.
What is most surprising is that in the
photographs the colors lose none of their
original brilliant shades. Connoisseurs
speak with the greatest enthusiasm Of
DIR. Zelle's remarkable work. No more
time is required than for the colorless
productions OF ordinary cameras.

Shed Mt Haverford.
The advent Of winter always imparts a
boom to indoor sports, but the increasing
Importance and popularity OF athletic pas
times that may be engaged in indoors Is
not alone attributable to the fact that old
Boreas has appropriated the outside world.
The general unreliability Of the weather
not only In winter, but In nearly all sea-
sons, has tended to give permanently to
indoor contests and practice There Is no
disputing the unpalatablo fact that the
climate of the United States has during
the past score of years changed radically
and for the worse. The seasons are no
longer well defined, and the periods Of
good weather which In former years could
be anticipated with reasonable certitude
are now matters of faint hearted conjecture.
To the sport lover 1t matters not what
may be the cause of these echanges-wheth-
er, as scme scientists say, II is the result
of the destruction Of the forests, or, as
others contend, 1t is due to solar influence.
