.F--.rr -v-------y~ -s~EvvrVH LlNCOLN'S WIDE SYMPATHY.
Treated All People Alike in Courteous
 Manner.

Horace Greeley once said: II doubt whether man, woman or child, white or black, bound or free, virtuous or vii cious, ever accosted or reached forth a hand to Abraham Lincoln and detect ed in his countenance or manner any repugnance or shrinking from the prof fered contact, any assumption of supe- riority, or betrayal of disdain.'
 "Frederick Douglas, the orator and patriot, is credited with saying: MT. Lincoln is the only white man with whom I have ever talked, or in whose presence I have ever been, who did not consciously or unconsciously betray to me that he recognized my color
 George Bancroft, the historian, al- luding to this characteristic, which was never so conspicuously manifested as during the darker days of the war, beautifully illustrates it in these mem orable words: As a child, in dark night, on a rugged way, catching hold of the hand of it's father for guidance and support, Lincoln chung fast to the hand of the people and moved calmly through the gloom"

WHY ENGLAND IS GREAT,
A Native Offers an Explanation-Britain's
 Naval Superiority.

SupeFlOrlbys
 F How was it that Ealf an island over which Queen Elizabeth ruled developed into the worldwide empire over which Queen Victoria reigns? First and fore most, says Blackwood's Magazine, it must be referred to the qualities of the race, their energy and adventurous spirit, their capacity to colonize, to rule subject races, and to administer their affairs. That race was sprung of suc- cessive seafaring invoders of these is lands who were trained for generations in the arduous defense of these shores, and taught to achieve naval superior ity as necessity of their position.
 As early as Edward III. the sover- eighty of the narrow seas was asserted, and conceded as a matter of course by the people of the low countries. As centuries rolled on, the insularity of our position became more marked as our possessions, in Europe dwindled away. The drill sergeant, who is the artifcer- of German fortunes, has had no ascendency in these islands, whose preoccupations have not risen from mil itary empires on their boundaries. Naval superiority has been the guarantee of our shores, and at the same time the foundation of an empire which has grown up beyond the seas. The same qualities which achieved ordered liberty at home spread commerce, settlements and empires abroad.

MYSTERIES OF THE LOUVRE.
Vague Stories of Imperial Crime Reach
 the Outside World.

the Outside World.
 Everyone who has "donc' the Louvre will remember the low-pitched and somewhat gloomy halls in which are stored the treasures of Egypt. Beneath these lie yet more darkly mysterious vaults, inaccessible to the public, though approached by wide and hand some staircase, such as would lead one to imagine that it communicated with apartments of some importance. Yet one finds at the bottom nothing but broad passages disposed in the form of cross, and without any sign what ever of door or window.
 A recent examination, however, of the solid walls gives experts reason to believe that the masonry IS more recent than the rest of the structure in this, the oldest portion of the fortress pal ace. NJ. VaugneuX, well-known critic. believes that many of the bodies of victims killed in the revolution of 1890 were immured here, and that the gov ernment was afraid to reveal the facts when the remains of their comrades were collected beneath the Colonne de Juliet.
 1On the other hand, NJ. Blondel, the architect of the building, and M. Nor mand, the secretary of the Society for Protecting Par;sian Monuments, hold the opinion that these subterranean passages led to the oubliettes into which Catherine de Medicis cast those who were unfortunate enough to incur her hate or fear. A judicious explora. tion would clear up the matter, and settle, too, several doubtful points as to the foundations of Lescot,s original citadel. Unfortunately, the annual grant does not provide for any such archaeological research, and it would be necessary to appeal for funds to the generosity of the chamber.-London Chronicle.

vENEzuELA'S TIME UP.

Ninety Daya Allowed to Answer Demand
for Indemnity Have Expired.
Caracas, March 7.51The 30 days al
lowed Venezuela to answer the demand
for indemnity for the arrest of English
Officials Barnes and Baker on the Uruan
river in December. 1894, have expired.
The government will not speak Off
cially but the highest authority sgiven
for the statement that Venezlela re-
fused to pay the indemnity, declaring
the question of the arrest and the boun-
Diary dispute cannot be separated. To
pay the indemnity would be to recog-
nize British sovereignty over Venezue-
Ian territory. ,
1t is believed here that unless Sir
Julian Pauncefote and Minister An
dreade can arrange matters satisfactor-
lily in Washington England will use
force to collect the money, treating the
arrests as distinct from the boundary.

New York. March 7.-R. g. Dun &

1T must yet be broadly stated that bust
ness appears to improve only In prospect,
and in the confidence on which future
transactions may he based. but not as yet
in actual sales accomplished. The Indus
tries all report q slightly lower range OF
prices, except for iron and steel products.

business Is expected in the spring. and there
Is still much hopefulnessF about railroad
orders. as earnings continue TO Improve.
The reports of the boot and shoe Interest
are not on the whole more encouraging
this week. shipments from the eAst being
still nearly ~ per cent. less than last year,
but there was no further decline In prices.
No important change appears In the lea Their
market. and hides are somewhatweaker.
Failures for the week have been 80 IN
the United States. against 2A last year.
and 68 In Canada. against IS last year.
1.-THE volume Of business reflected ny

improving. the weeks returns showing
gain Of only Is per cent. over last year.
and q decrease Of l7.6 per cent. In COM
parison with the same week Of 1851"
Bradstreet's says:
General trade began the week relatively
less favorably: with the change from high
winds and extreme cold which checked
trading to milder weather. increased pur-
chases and brighter prospects for bust
ness have appeared. Makers Of wooden
goods report spring trade over, fall trade
not yet begun and much men's-wear wooden
machinery idle. Iron and steel have had
an unsatisfactory demand and prices Of
billets and southern pig are shaded There
are also reductions in quotations for cot
ton. print cloths, petroleum, hides. and for
wheat, Indian corn and. oats. Mercantile
collections are generally unsatisfactory,
notably in Chicago, where there are more
complaints than for year past"
