Who Has Got Hold of the Right End OF

Who Has Got Hold of the Right End of
the Question.
LONDON, March 13.-Mr. Walword
Davis Green, conservative member of
parliament for Wednesday,, has writ
ten an article, which is published in
The Pail Mall Gazette, on the proposed
recognition of the belligerent rights
to the Cuban insurgents by the United
States. The United States, he
says, has always been on the
side of people struggling for freedom.
and Spain, he thinks, would make an
error if she regarded the recognition
Of the belligerency of the Cubans as a
hostile act. The people of Great Britain,
he continues, will bear in mind the
essential distinction between recogni-
ton of belligerency and recognition of
independence.
[Spain granted bell1gerent rights to
the southern confederacy June II,
1861, over a month before the first bat
lie of Bull Run was fought.-Ed.l

Aday world back into scenes and days
when the thoughts of the spirit world
were not crowded down by the matter
of-fact detail of everyday existence.
And it was just such an experience
that came to those fortunate enough
to gain admission to Archbishop Ken
rick's obsequies at the cathedral
From the beginning of the service
to the closing scenes there was pre-
scented a panorama unlike anything
ever enacted in real life. It was as
though the characters in some me-
di@val fresco had stepped down from
the painted wall and grouped them
selves in Kaleidoscope tableaux like
creatures of flesh and blood.
The Cathedral was just the locality
for such scene Its old French
Spanish architecture is a reminiscence
of other days. Within are broad aisles,
massive pillars, a sanctuary that pro-
iccts into the body of the church until
10 almost falls within the shadow OF
the organ loft.
In the deep recesses of the sanctury
were crowded to-day row upon row OF
priests. In every direction as far as
the eye could penetrate; everywhere,
on every side in the shadow OF the
lofty arches, shot by the occasional
lancing sunlight through the Munich
glass were surpliced clergymen-
Immediately before the main altar
was a double row of high dignitaries
OF the church in purple robes. relieved
only by the CLEAN of the golden pecto-
raj cross
At either end of the semi-circle
formed by this dignified body were the
canopied thrones, one occupied by the
cardinal in his robes of scarlet, the
other by Archbishop Kahn in the SOM
Der vestments of the celebrant of the
funeral mass Around them were the
assistant priests, the aco1ytes and mas
fers of ceremonies
Without the sanctuary rail were
again rows upon rows of priests. fill
ing every bit of vacant space between
the chancel and the congres alton.
just on the edge os this imposing
circle lay the dead archtishop ON his
sombre catafalque. The fran. wasted
body in its gorgeous robes looked like
an ancient saint and gave the fina1
touch to the weird, nnworldly scene.

STARTLING FACTS

Brought to Light by . Police Investig1-

CHICAGO, March l3.-For several days
:he police and officers OF the comptrol-
er's Office. special assessment bureau
md law department. have been inves-
;igating certain startling facts which
came into their possession, by confess
sion and otherwise. Indicating the ex-
stence of an organized band of city
hall employees and men on the outside
who, it is alleged, have robbed the
.axpayers of probably $40, 900 by means
IF forging receipts for special assess
nents paid, with which the accom-
olices not employed in the special as
sessment bureau or comptroller's Office
obtained warrants for rebates due

scHooLEYs MOUNTAINS.

Where Children Seldom Die and Adults
at an Advanced Age.
We publish to-day a mos remarkable
health record of Schooley's mountain,
New Jersey. In 1882 is was said to
show the lowest death rate of any place
known to scientists.
Going back for ten years the records
proved the death Iate as low as six to
the Thousand, and in period of eight
years the death Of only enc chiId-the
deaths being of admits, and the majority
of them in advanced years. This report
includes the guests of two large summer
hotels, many of whom go there in a
weak condition.
From an old resident of the place
were gathered the following facts re-
garding one of the hotels: He said
there were often about 100 children
there during the season. and one sum-
mer, few years since, when cholera in
fantum was so fatal in the cities, there
were many sick Infants brought there,
all of whom recovered. in period OF
25 years not a child has died.
The usual summer complaints and
also malaria, diph. iberia aud pneumonia
are unknown there.
From the teacher of the district
school, where there are 20 children reg
istered, As IN regular attendance, it was
ascertained that no death had occurred
among the children on the mountain
during the four years she has had
charge Of the school.
The conditions which produce such a
healthy locality are peculiar:
Schooley's mountain is q broad
plateau, or spur, which stands alone
and is surrounded on all sides by ral-
leys. 1t is 40 miles from the sea and is
1000 feet above sea level. The tempera-
ture is from ten to fifteen degrees lower
than New York or Philadelphia during
the day and from Is to 20 at night, dur
ing the heated term.
In winter the thermometer win yln
from ten to fifteen degrees higher in ex-
treme cold weather during the day aud
from Is to- 20 at night. The AIR is dry.
The meteorological bureau credits
this place with the most equable tenn.
perature in the United States. The late
Prof. George a. Cook, state geologict of
the state of New Jersey, III his anns.al
report makes mention of the water OF
Schooley's mountain as being of re-
markable prrity. The old chalybeate
spring is too well known. to reqrire
special mention.

New YORK, March IA letter from
Havana says Weyler's reign of terror
has commenced in earnest. Moro cas-

are slowly starving to death. Unless
someone can bribe a guard to give a
blanket to prisoner, the man is left
to make the best of bed on the bare

WAS SURPRISED.

a celebrated European traveller. while IN
st. Louis recently, was escorted through
one of the large shoe factories for which
that city Is famous, and was greatly aston
ished at what he saw.
The old way of making shoes, In which
one man started and completed the shoes
has entirely changed. Now each operator
docs just one part toward completing the
shoe, and In going from the cutter to the
inisher's hands the shoe is handled by 90
different people. one-half of whom are girls.
The gentleman interviewed several OF the
operators and found that in manufacturing
high grade shoes, such rs IL made by the
Desnoyers Shoe Co, that only the best help
Is employed, and they receive correspond
ingly high wages.
The gentleman had seen these goods In all
the large cities in this country, and was not
surprised to learn that the firm is supply
ing fine shoes to 5000 large dealers. He
carried away q pair Of their shoes with him
as q memento Of his visit, and is now adj
vising his friends to buy no other.

Recent Investigations by German

generally the right, is stronger than the
other. It is also true that just as peo-
pie are right or 1eft-handed, so are they
right or left-siGhted-that is to say,
while apparently looking with both
eyes they often really use only one.
and out of 20 persons whose eyes were
tested, tuo only were found to be left
sighted. The reason of the greater
strength possessed by the right eye Is
not clearly known, but it is suggested
that the greater use of the right side Of
the body-which seems a natural ten
dcncy-has something to do with it. In
using weapons. for instance, mankind
have been taught for ages to assume
attitudes in which the right hand and
side have most exercises discipline
which has doubtless had its effect on the
eye itself. GuDsmiths now carefully
allow for right or 1eft-sightedness in
making firearms to order. Old sea cap
tains. after long use of the telescope
and other instruments used in making
calculations at sea, often find their
right eye much stronger than the left
