70 the Editor Of the Globe
In your editorials you seem to entire,v
ignore the time-henored principle Of the
Democratic party--that the majority should
rule. AT the Chicago convention less than
one-third of the delegates there assembled
TOOK the side of single gold standard, and
these, like petulant children, because thew
couldn't obtain the biggest slice of cake. sui
k1ly refused to take any at ALL Is this
Democracy? Have we arrived at a period of
history where all the intelligence and wis
dom Of great political party is centered
in meager minority?
Grover Cleveland is the original gold stand
ard advocate In the United States, and he
took that dangerous ground In defiance of
his party, and BY betrayal Of its tradi-
tons and principles of century's age.
He was rebuked at Chicago by an over
whelming majority, born Of spontaneous
uprising of the people, without even the
connivance or assistance of federal patron
age. 1t was the purest and best convention
ever assembled under a Democratic banner,
and now the t.obe is supineIy begging
the insignificant minority to resort to the
suicidal policy of boiting. cheering spec
tacle for great Democratic daily.
Yours truly, john r. Stone.

The Great Eastern was the largest ship
ever built, and i.t this time it would be of
interest to compare her size with that Of
the St Paul and Cumpania. The Great
Eastern was ESQ feet long, SO feet beam,
2S feet draft when loaded, %, 900 tonnage,
paddle engines /, goo horsepower nominal;
screw engiurs, l., 200 horsepower nominal.
She was commenced to be built at Mill
wall in the spring Of 1894 and was launch
ed after many difficulties on Jan. 80, 1885.
The history of the Great Eastern was
from the first fancially an unfortunate
one. She made several voyages to the
United States at great loss to her owners,
but in 1850 and 1866 she somewhat redeem
ed her character by successfully laying the
Atlantic cable. Subsequently, owing to
her vast size, she was Instrumental in lay
ing most Of the important cables across
the Atlantic, in the Mediterranean,
through the Red sea, etc.
In 1888 she was sold at auction in Liv-
erpool to he broken up, bringing the sum
of $3.50, 72O She WAS designed by l. X
Brunei. II is said by many that with tho
improved machinery of this date she could
be handled and made to pay a dividend. -

LURlNG GAME 10 DEATH.
Beasts of Prey That Play ON the Curiosity
of Their Natural Food.


A writer in well known sporting paper
sails how he and friend lay down behind
log one day and watched for flock of
canvasback ducks to come into the broad
river. Pretty soon in came flock of thou
sands that alighted 500 yards from the
shore and began to plume themselves,
duck fashion. One of the men tied his red
handkerchief on the end of stick and be-
gan to wave it at intervals in sight of the
ducks. The ducks began to cock their
heads sideways, and after awhile they be-
gan to swim toward the log. They came
within 90 yards, and the men jumped up,
and one got 10 and the other 3 ducks with
the four discharges.
The panther on the plains of Patagonia
gets as near herd of guanacos as it can
then lies down behind bush on its back.
1t puts one paw up in the air, then an
other, then the third and fourth, and after
a bit all four at once. That seems curious
to the guanacos, and they come close to
investigate. Up jumps the panther and
lights on the nearest one S back and breaks
its neck.
A fox up in Nova Scotia comes down tn
the bay of Fundy and goes jumping along
the beach couple of rods and back again,
rising on its mind legs at each about face
and waving its big tail in the air. The
little flock OF four or five Canada geese out
on the water begin to wonder what can be
the matter with the fox. They swim up
into the shallow water to investigate,
when in dashes the fox and grabs one by
the neck. The men have taken advantage
of this trick and have trained dogs to dc
as the fox does For lack of dog men
themselves have ambled about on their
hands and knees to attract the birds.
A wild house cat black as coal, was seen
by hunter walking slowly up and down
level stretch of sand near an old house
on the Connecticut river. Three black
ducks were far out in the river, and, like
the geese, came swimming slowly in, out
of curiosity, but the man could not wait
to see what wWlld happen. He killed al
three ducks with his gun.-New York sun

LONDON'S PUBLIC HOUSES.
Women Drink at the Bar Just as Uncon.
cernedly as the Men.

The two parishes of Bethnal Green and
Shoreditch have few churches and ten
times as many public houses. The public
houses explain great many of the miser-
les of the miserable locality. There may be
some teetotaers there but there are not
many, and there are almost as few drink
ers who are always moderate in their liba-
tons The curse of bitter beer, raw Scotch
whisky and "tupenny" gin rests heavy
on the place. Public opinion is no weapon
against it, for public opinion openly favors
drinking whenever one has the necessary
money and does not regard actual drunk
enness as n disgrace worth mentioning.
Women drink at the bars as uncon-
cernedly as men do, and barmaids serve
them. The barroom is the gossip place,
and babes and small children are carried
to it and kept in it by careful mothers
who gather there for the days necessary
talk. Infants sometimes Cry and at such
times are permitted a sip from the ma
ternal glass, quite ms other children are
bribed with chocolate drops. Thus blear
eyes and drink redeemed faces often have
early beginnings. The children on the
streets are dirty, ragged and vociferously
happy over small things. Adults are not
genuinely happy. There is no reason why
they should be. They derive much spas
modic merriment from the public houses.
Drunkenness and fighting are common
everywhere, especially on the streets. Dur
ing one noon recess l saw three fights de-
velop among the two dozen employees of a
box factory. Nor are the combatants al
ways men or boys. Edward Marshall in

The cultivation of aquatic plants in tubs
makes it possible for any one to try his
skill with them. OF course he need not
expect to be able to grow the rarer sorts of
nymphea but he can succeed with many
beautiful varieties of water lily and other
plants of that class. A half barrel is not
very attractive in itself, but its lack of
beauty may be concealed by plants, or it
may be sunk its depth in the earth. When
it contains fine specimen of some aquatic
plant, we will forget all about its lack Of
grace When preparing for these plants,
put in rich black mud from the bed of
streams or muck from swamps to tho
depth of a foot; then plant your roots in it
and fill with water. Add enough water
from time to time to make up for that
which is lost by evaporation and give tho
tub sunny place in the yard or garden.
If you want To grow more plants than one
tub will accommodate, it is good plan to
take four, five, six, or rs many as you may
decide ON, and have them sunk in the
ground close together, so that the general
effect will he something like that which IA

though moro expensive one to carry out,
is to have Il tank constructed of heavy

GOOD PRICES AHEAD.
lTrotwood in Horse Review

The bicycle will prove a blessing to
the trotting horse industry. There has
neverIbeen any money in the rearing OF
poor horses, ana the wheel has done
more than anything else to stop the rails
ing of that class of horses. Every one
of theseipoorer horses has, nevertheless,
competed to a certain extent with the
better animal. This has been so because
many people do not know the difference
between good horse and bad one. a
horse is horse to them so long as he
has, as the school boy said in his compo-
sition, flour legs-one on each corner"
But with the wheel as competitor, the
poorer Eanimal must go. That he has
goneIandsis going any one at all familiar
with the signs of the times may see for
himself. a In few years he will cease to
compete with the horse that has stood as
the survival of the fittest.
But the trotting breeders have the best
horses in the world to-day. The demand
is great and is constantly growing.
There is no longer any haphazard in it.
A certain strong and wealthy class love
the harness horse and will love him Just
AS they love parks and hunting and fish
ing and sport and outdoor exercises of
all kinds. AS the wheel gets more popu-
lar and vulgar, this demand for the best
in few years it will be merely a ques-
ton of ability to purchase as to
who will own a wheel and who will
keep a roadster. Even now those who

had onrthe occasional hire of a livery
team no harm has been done the horse
business.
This, Of course, is said in reference to
the roadster and other kinds of horses.
So far as races are concerned 1t is scarce
ly probable that the wheel can affect
them one way or the other. 1t is true
more interest is taken in bicycle races
than usual, but not more than would &c

sports. Nothing can take the place OF

Cow Golf.

The story of the Scotch COW that caught
golf ball with her tail serves to prove
that the Scotch COW is not half SO useful,
nor intelligent, nor amiable as the Indian
animal of the same name. The other day
Bombay golfer approaching the second
hole, struck his ball as staight as die,
but just little too hard Spinning across
the green, it rolled against the near hind
heel of brindled COW. Before the ball
had ceased rolling the sportive animal
kicked out, gave the ball precisely the re-
quired touch at 80 clubs length and holed
out. This, says the Bombay Gazette, can
be vouched for.
