WHERE THE LINE IS DRAWN.
In the Application of the Mon
 roe Doctrine.
No Policy of Protectorate Establish- ed by This Country Over the Smaller Republics of the Con- tinent-No Responsibility.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1.-The sus- picion in some minds that the Vene- zuelan settlement will not prove as satisfactory as it now appears is not warranted. The fact of this govern ment being made a principal in the arbitration, while Venezuela is not in- terested, is not to be interpreted as the establishment of a policy of pro- tectorate by this country over the smaller republics of this continent The first contention of Great Britain was that if the Monroe doctrine were recognized it would bar foreign gov ernments from one form of redress for grievances for damages inflicted upon any of the great powers.by these small republics, and that therefore this gov ernment would nave to stand surety for the good conduct of the govern ments whom we protect in their terri tory.
 MT. Olney made it very clear that this government would not accept this reasoning and that we would confine ourselves to one proposition, that no foreign power should establish ,dolnin- ion over territory on this continent. The Corinto incident served as an ob- ject to show where we draw the line in the application of the Monroe doc Urine, the application of this doctrine leaving it open to the powers to exact any form of redress for damages save the one of cession of territory. This was made very clear before the agree ment on arbitration was reached and care was taken by MT. Olney that ac- tlon in this case should not hereafter | be interpreted to mean that we as- sumed any responsibility for our sis ter republics. In view of this fact, the agreement of arbitration between Great Britain and the United States is based entirely upon the recognition of our right to enforce the Monroe doc Urine. This government is to be satis- fled that Great Britain is not taking possession of territory by force which does not belong to her, and if this fact is established our part in the conten- tion will end. It will then make no
 difference whether Venezuela is satis- fled or not, nor will it matter what
 steps England takes to enforce her claims. On the other hand, if England
 cannot make good her claims, Vene-
 zuela will get the benefit of our inter- ference in the matter

STRANGE OPTICAL ILLUSIONS.

he saw the little fellow playing in the
sand with his companions. What be
comes of the true image when his eve
falls into this strange rsverie he does
not know-the fiction or fantasy seems
TO monopolize the whole scope of his
vision for the short time that it lasts.
He says he has lots OF sport some
times when he goes out rabbit hunting.
Very often he delights in ell the excite
ment and pleasure of chase long time
after common-eyed hunters have ceased
to enjoy it. For instance, he went out
the other day with friend and a couple
of good dogs. In a large, open field
they jumped a rabbit and it started
across the fields with the dogs close be-
hind. In reality it was only few mo-
ments before they had caught and killed
1t, but to him they kept right on in hot
pursuit clear across the field and into
the woods beyond. 1t was intensely ex-
citing and he was clappiDg his hands
and shouting 10 the dogs while his
amazed companion, with the rabbit in
his hand and the dogs by his side, was
wondering if he lad gone crazy. Thus,
whenever he goes out, he always has the
pleasure of long and exciting chase.
There is only one inconvenient thing
about il, however, and that is he never
enjoys seeing the dogs capture the prey.

Candle Tampa.

Now that invention and science have
done their part, candle lamps are be-
coming not only ornaments, but neces-
sites in well-conducted households. a
very dainty idea is to have a brass
photo-frame lighted from the back by
candle lamp softened by light green
silk shade, while for q wall looking
glass nothing could be more graceful
and decorative than a design with
sprays of jessamine at the top and sides,
with the candle lamp at either side.
The candle lamps are now made TO look
as oriental as possible, and the dainty
little cases in olive green's, old yellows,
mOslem grays and Armenian reds are
exceedingly attractive. These Arctic
lamp have all the appearance of the
candle itself, but are really but IN
breakable compositions which hold tho
candles in place. Inside the case there
is a strong spiral spring, which is
pressed down into the smallest pos
sible compass when the candle is
new one, but as it is gradually released
pushes up the candle, which is thereby
