Short Editorials In England.

Yes, there is undoubtedly a strong
taste just now for books Of fiction made
up of short stories-sketches, they might
even be called. 1t is part of the spirit of
the time, which is fond Of brevity in
every form. Just see how the newspa-
pers have been affected by this mode.
In my early days the London Times
used to thunder i'll leaders column and
half long; now half a column often
suffices. think may claim to be the
pioneer in cutting down the length of
editorials IL England. But in the mat
ter of fiction it seems evident to me
that the mental processes which pro-
duce sustained, complete and logically
elaborate novel are very different from
those employed i'll the writing of a col
lection of episodes, even though they be
Of common type as regards scene and
characters. Some of your American
writers do this sort of work admirably.

Russian Distances.

One gets an idea of the magnificent
distances of the cars realm from learn
ing that a Russian general who was in
4 hurry to get to St. Petersburg from
Vladivostok found the time saving route
was to go to Yokohama by steamer,
thence by another steamer across the Pa
ciic to San Francisco, by rail to New
York and by steamer to Europe. The
gap between the finished sections Of the
Transsiberian railroad is SO many hun
dreds Of miles in length that the general
would have lost time in traversing the
wilds of that vast country, where horses
furnish all the transport.

formers and two sharpshooter5, n man and
wife, advertised as Coleman and MoXis,
whose work soon became the talk of the
town. The manager, Ccballos, who had
a long experience with Barnum & Bailey
circus in the United States, thought that
it would increase tho prestige Of his show
if he could have q private exhibition of
shooting in the presence of the president.
Tho thing was arranged, and on Sunday
morning MIR. Coleman decked his long,
lean body in a dress suit, with a string of
medals in the lapel of his coat. Miss
Moxis donned n pretty dress, with q skirt
reaching to her knees, a pair of top boots
and military cap. Mr.. CcballoS, wear
ing diamond pin as largo as an acorn,
escorted them 20 the yard back of Santa
Iuez, tho presidential mansion, where the
targets were put up and all details at
tended to before the president and the per-
sons who happened to be visiting hin,
| were called out to SEQ the shooting.
The exhibition began with fancy shots

broke balls her husband held in his hands.
She graspcd her rifle in all sorts Of posi-
tions. She stretched backward, forward,
up and down, and at each crack n ball was

Mrs. Crcspo did not seem to feel tn,
same confidence in the woman, rs she re

shooting. The president walked forward
| to the target, allowed Coleman to arrange
| the little black bail on his head, and ther
stood still, awaiting results. Mexis' hant

William Tell. Her rifle was directed to

and shattered particles of glass fell abou
the president. The rest Of the shootin,
was of the conventional order.

The desperation Of tho Cubans who are
fighting Spain for the liberty OF their is
land cxcitcs wonder at times in the Amer
lean mind, and some are inclined to think
them too blocdthirsty in their system of
warfare. Il IS trUo very little quarter is
given the Spanish soldisry in any of the
conflicts where the insurgents have the
upper hand, but there is Il good, substan-
tial reason for this seeming hoartlessncss.
Tho soldicrSDf the insurgent army know
that Il fate b.ackcr than death will be
theirs if they fail. The kingdom of Spain
has never displayed a gentle hand to its
enemies. Dark relics OF the inquisition
permeate its treatment of malefactors, for
as such the Cuban insurgents are regard
cd. The prison system Of Spain is moro
barbarous than that of either Turkey or
Russia, and that is saying q good deal.
There are men forgotten and unnamed
rotting away in the Spanish dungeons to-
day. Men who took part in the previous
Cuban rebellion, nearly a generation ago,
may still be living in the dungeons. Thirty
years hence some of the men who are now
fighting SO valiantly in Cuba may be rot
ting AWAY in the same pest holes. 1t is
this prospect which makes them desperate
and bloodthirsty and eager to accept q
thousand risks to shake off the torture
which awaits them.
Each week patches of Cuban suspect.
are forwarded to Spain. To be q suspect
is equivalent 10 being guilty, and those
who go will in al probability never re-
turn. If "a wealthy planter is suspected o.
furnishing financial aid to the insurgents
Lo is bounced upon and shipped oil. In
