The Spanish Censor.

They have q curious Way OF suppress
ing papers here. Instead of submitting
their proofshccts TO the censor, as is us
ual where such a protector of public
opinion exists. they get at the matter
backward. The publisher goes ahead ON
his own Judgment, prints what ne
pleases and takes his chances OF going
to jail or paying fine. The censor
reads the paper at the breakfast table
the next morning, and if nc finds any
thing mildly Objectionable he writes Il
polite note to the editor, calling attention
to the article The latter prints 4 para
graph next day explaining that he was
mistaken or that the public had nisin-
terpreted his remarks. But when any
high official of the government is ut
tackled or the proprieties arc violated,
the editor is fined or imprisoned, and
policemen take the subscription list and
call at every house at which copies have
been delivered to recover them.-Ha-
vana Letter in Chicago Times-Herald.

KEY WEST.
The island Receives Mail From the
United States Twice Week.

The island Receives Mail From che
United States Twice IL Week.
Key West is not only the most south
erly point of the United States, except
some islets few miles out into the gulf
stream from there, but it is also the most
isolated place of its size or anything ap-
preaching its population. There are
western mining camps and Alaskan
towns that get mail less frequently. but
here is city of nearly 20, 600 inhabit-
ants, with fine government buildings,
great shipping interests, daily newspa-
pers and manifold business affairs, the
capital of Florida county, and with
mail from the United States but twice
a week. The people do not rest content
under it. All very we'll it might be,
they say, for an antipodean town, but
not for one within the limits of the
United States.
One result OF the spasmodic mail serv-
ice are that all business and much social
life are arranged in harmony with 1t.
The mail steamer is scheduled to arrive
at 3 D. IN. every Tuesday and Friday.
having sailed from Port Tampa ut 10
the evening before All Key West de-
votes its attention on steamer day to
waiting for the mail, beginning that
task soon after noon by scanning tho
horizon for the first glimpse of the ex-
pected craft. Last Friday the boat did
not arrive until nearly midnight, having
been compelled to 90 around by way of
the Dry Tortugas Oh account OF the
storm, which made the regular channel
unsafe where the bars make it shallow
and narrow. But, with the boat nine
hours late, the population continued to
watch, business virtually being inter
rupted for that time.
After the steamer is in public interest
centers at the postofiice, where crowds
wait for the distribution of the heavy
semiwcekly mails That occupies the
remainder of the afternoon. At night
the vessel sails for Havana, returning
from the Cuban capital the following
evening. Wednesday and Saturday are,
therefore, steadily devoted to the an
swering of their mail by the citizens of
the island, in order to be ready for the
north bound pouches, and on those days
it is said to be virtually impossible to
transact business on that account. An
irreverent stranger suggests that on
Monday and Thursday the people are
preparing 10 receive the mails and re-
covering from the shock of what they
have already received, but this seems to
be IL SANDER, uniustified by the facts

nicrclc In African War.

Ono would scarcely expect TO find bi-
cycles and !, bicycle club i'll the heart of
Africa and 600milcs from amy railroad.
One club in Bulawayo, Matabclcland,
South Africa, is in il tlourishing condi-
tion having % members out of = popu-
lation of 1900.
During the late war i'll Matabeleland
these bicyclcrs all rendered valuable
service to the English. BY them scouts
were often able To locate the enemy
or TO deliver IL message where Il man on
horseback would net have dared to 90,
fer Il Kaifir can outrrm Il horse every
timc-that is such horses as they have
in Africa.
IN one instance bicycler put to rout
whole impi Ga camp of kailirs, who
evidently never had seen Il bicycle be-
fore. and this man, who came nearer to
the camp than he had had amy intention
of doing, aud who WAS much alarmed
for his own safety when he realized
where he WAS, took heart again when
he saw these Katlirs throw up their
hands rs if III CONSERVATION, and, utter
ing savage sounds and noises, jump 10
their feet and run for their lives They
evidently thought the devil WAS after

Certain American Editions.

The American editions of many Eng
lish authors We're of prime importance
in the careers Of the writers, and to ig-
more them is to ignore most potent fac
tors in their lives. The publication of
the Yellowplush Correspondence" in
Philadelphia was followed by the
Comic Tales and Sketches" and the
success of the American book was the
influence that induced the London pub
fisher to assume the risk In the same
way the misccllanics collected from
original sources u!d published in ~ vol
umcs by the Appletons in New York in
1852 and 1858 induced the publication
of the miscellauies III London i'll 1856 to
1857. Thackeray carried home a set Of
these Appleton volumes to aid him in

was the first, and that the New York
edition exists not at all:-Booli Buyer.

An Honest BootblacIl.

An Oakland bootblack, an honest man
who would not deceive his patrons,
when he first went into business six
gears ago, put up sign which read; Joe
Garibaldi, bootblacls Has two small
children. Each succeeding year found
him deserving OF more sympathy, for he
kept amending the sign until 1t read
eight small children a few days ago
Joe's stand was locked for Il whole day,
and when lie returned the next morning
he confded to the butchers boy that his
baby had died His first work was to
amend the sign so that it might not
mislead the public, and it then read:
"Joe Garibaldi, bootblack Has seven
small children Then, to avoid being
placed in false position before the
public, he added with his finger and
shoeblacking, lone he die. San Fran

THE ARTIST A PROPHET.
So suegcstcd the Director of tho Metro
p9litnn Museum of Art.

1t is not merely the private collectors
who are pYacticed on by the tratliclers
in bogus "old masters. Sometimes
they fly higher aud sometimes they may
be deceived themselves. In the latter
class, perhaps, WAS the woman who
wrote to General di Ccsnola, director of
the Metropolitan Museum of Art, with
the information that she owned Il treas
uro which she wished to realize upon ut
once and would dispose Of at sacrifice.
This treasure, she said, wasa celebrated
painting of st. Michael carving the
dragon according to the legend OF the
early Christian church. 1t was Il very
old subject, but tho canvas was i'll u
good state of preservation. Her great
grandfather had dug it out of tho ruins
OF Herculaneum.
General di Cesnola ut once dictated q
reply, il which he said i'll substance:
"Madam, if the facts arc rs you state,
you are holding the painting ut too low
Il figure. 1t is worth millions if 1t is
worth cent. Ierculanoum has been
living under the lava of Vesuvius for
1000 years. That the canvas should
have escaped destruction when the
mountain poured forth its fiery contents
on the towns ut its base is indeed re-
narkable; that it has further resisted
the disintcgrating hand of time is no
less remarkable; that the artist should
have shown Il spirit OF prophecy and de-
lincatcd an incident OF the Christian re-
ligion long before it happened is more
than remarkable. 1t is miraculous. You
should keep the ST. Michael!'
In day or so the director received n
second letter from the woman. 1t run
thus: IF the picture is really so ralu-
able, don't see why you WON'T take 1t
ut $500. New York Mail and Ex-
