The Australian Waffle.

Mr.. John G. Maydon, M. A. L., of
Natal, in the course Of a paper on Natal,
South Africa, read before the Colonial
Institute, said:
But the tree which is Of the first i'm
portance to us is the acacia molissima,
or waffle, brought to us from Austria
liza. This tree grows most readily from
seed and thrives splendidly. At eight
years old (having from its second year
needed neither cultivation nor care),
it has become Of great value for it's
bark. which is the most useful of all
the vegetable agents used for tanning,
and its timber for the thousand and one
purposes for which timber is indispens-
able to the agriculturist. It's timber is
beginning to be sought, too, for mining
purposes, IS Sce1u2Iy q deeper and
deeper level in the mines necessitates
the timbeTing OF shafts and tunnels.
The production Of bark alone, however,
makes the owning Of waffle grove
very lucrative possession, and as the
sides and crowns OF hills, little fitted
for agricultural purposes, offer the best
sites for these groves, there is every
prospect that gradually The face of the
country will be changed by the affor-
estation which must be productive of
many benefits in addition to that of
mere money producing"
When L. J. Levey returned to the
Islands he brought with him a number
of seeds of the waffle, which he will be
glad to furnish persons desiring to
plant them. When Mr.. Levey left Aus
tralia the bark was selling at f6 per ton.

PITTSBURGH, June 13.-At 2:3O O'Clock
Friday morning a barrel of oil in the
basement of a bakery owned by Kubu-
gunde Garische, at No. So Spring Gar
den avenue. Allegheny, exploded with
a frightful report and scattered flames
in every direction. Several persons
were sleeping in the second floor of the
building but before they could escape
the structure was enveloped in flames.
Mrs. Garische. aged "a years. leaped
from window, striking squarely on
her head on the stone pavement and
was killed instantly. The fremen
made rush into the building and W.
ing on the floor found Mr.. Garische
unconscious from heat and smoke. A
grandchild aged five years was found
dead in his crib. Lottie. aged twelve
years, was badly burned about the
head and hands, and will probably die.
Mrs Garische, jr escaped by aid of
the fremen, with slight injuries. Two
other occupants of the house were also
rescued by the fremcn.
The bakers were working in the
basement but at "a distance from the
scene OF the explosion. The cause has

ENGLAND DIsTRUsTs M'kINLEY
why the Foreigners DO Not Favor the
Great Protcctionist.

of'ai iFotecttOntst
The failure IF Gov. McKinley's can.
vass To arouse any great popular en-.
thusiasm in England, while not uucx.
pccted, is really not TO be explained by
any rational lines of reasoning. Judged
by their own standards of the best
craftsmanship, Gov. Mckinley ought to
he the recipient Of the unstinted adula
ton of the English press. IL is remcm.
bered that President Cleveland was ex.
tolled hy the British press because Of
his success i'm commanding popular
support in the face of the hostility OF
the party bosses. BY this same standard
Gov. Mckinley ought 10 be the popular
English ideal of n model statesman.
Englishmen are just now felicitatina
themselves over the splendid financial
showing made by the English govern
ment during the past year. Their ma.
tional debt has been decreased and the
budget for 1896 shows n surplus OF $21..
100000. This condition OF things IL
pointed TO with pride by Englishmen rs
nm achievement of wise statesmanship
results of sound financial admins
tration that indicate great national
prosperity.
Gov. Mckinley represents better than
any other American statesman this
sound English policy of having sur
plus instead of deficit.
Under the Mckinley law there was
surplus Of revenues over expenditures
of S3I,230, 7G2.57 on June 30, 1891; of
1921 1896 on June 30, 1892. and Of
$2.341 .G74.29 on June 30, 1893.
The treasury report for May, 1896,
just Issued. shows n deficit for the
month of $3,752,s75. making total
deficit Of S26,051 ,s74 for the 1 I months
of the fiscal year. Whether compared
with the customs receipts under the
Wilson-Gorman law in its first year or
the Mckinley law in It's first and second
years, the showing is unfavorable to
May, 1896. Mr.. Cleveland indited the
Venezuelan message, with its menacing
language, hostile 10 English claims and
offensive to English pride. which was
followed by n slump in all classes Of
American securities. And yet the Eng.
lish idolile Mr.. Cleveland as the best
president Great Britain ever had, while
they pretend TO regard Gov. Mckinley,
the enemy OF deficits and the apostle OF
a surplus. as n dangerous leader.
Why should the man who stands for
the English idea Of surplus instead Of
"A deficit be regarded as dangerous"
leader?
The renson the English distrust him
is doubtless due 20 the fact that there
was deficit in the English budget for
1892, while the Mckinley law was 10
force. and the surplus revenues of the
United States under the same law in the
same year amounted 90 S9.of4,453G6.--
