CANADA WILL BACK DOWN.

Ii is quite likely that the spitefui and
nsrrov-minded conduct Of Canada with
regard TO the Klondyke mines exoites
almost ss much disgust in responsible
circles in London ss it does generally IN
San francisco, says the Report OF that
city. Canada. of course. has srgnf 70
do what it likes with its own; bat SO
has the United States /; and it Canals
refuses TO grant American miners the
privileges that are granted to miners the
world over, except in the Trsnsvaai. u
must not be surprised should the United
States cut of the privileges Canada has
hitherto enjoyed. That the new mining
laws and the heavy duties. made to ap-
ply only to the Northwest Territory, are
aimed specially at Americans, there can
be NO douhs at all in the circumstances /;
and that eognizance should and will be
taken Of that fact there needs be no doubt
either. Tit for tat is fair play, and the
United States is in . position to make
the play with great effect. Mr.. Blame
showed how that could be done. Should
the United States withdraw the priv
leves the Canadian Pacific now has. OF
shipping goods in bond across American
territory, the Canadian Pacific railroad
would be virtually closed, and should
Canada p~ersis. in being ugly and in do
ing the dog-in-the-mspger act on the
Klondyko, that is what Congress will
probably do. But the chances are we
shall not come to that. The shockingly
bad policy Of Canada's action, from an
international point of view, and the I'M
Pleasant immediately probabilities have
20 doubt struck Lord Salisbury and Mr..
Chamberlain ere this and, if Canada be
not called down by the Imperial Govern
msnt, we shall be surprised. OF course
Canada, although . colony. has certain
rights and, in . sense, is scting within
them. Bat we think the authorities in
London will find some quiet way OF con-
vincing Canada that it will not be al
lowed to upset the colonial apple cart for
the sake Of having . petty fling st the
United States.
Uncle Sam holds the whip hand. and
we do not believe the present situation
will last long. or that San Francisco
needs to be ss all alarmed about . pos
sibls check in the mining boom. Il will
ell be settled long before the Spring
reason opens. and probably within Q
month. and Canada will back down as
soon - . comparatively soft place can be
arranged for her.

cussiug the matter OF quarantining con-
sumptives. The State is overrun with
people afflicted with terburculer dis
eases, and il is found that the disease is
likely to prove as great . scourge there
as it has in New England. The only ad-
vantage the climate Of California has
over the Eastern States for c~onsumptive
people is that they can live out doors in
that State more than in the East, and,
therefore, it gives them greater power to

The award TO American bidders OF the
contract for building the electric Traction
plant for the underground Central Rail-
way of London appears TO have caused
the deepest indignation among the com
peting firms in that city. The offending
corporation explains that il gave the
contract to the Americans only because
the latter knew more about electrical
construction and because they build bet
ter locomotives, cars and machinery than
their English rivals, but the excuse Is
more likely to ~sggrsvate than sppease
the wrath of ths unsuccessful British
bidders. Il is difficult to see how the
latter are going to retain their business
fooshold in the British Islands unless
they can induce the government to pre-
vent American enterprise from bidding
for contracts anywhere in the kingdom.

A Worthless Autopsy.

The autopsy of the brain Of the st. Louis
murderer, Question:, lis regarded by medical
experts as far from conclusive evidence
that the man was insane. Dr. Charles H
Hughes. of st. Louis, when asked his
opinion, said:
Chronic drunkards, without. having ever
been insane, often reveal the condition of
things described in the autopsy in far
more exaggerated form. While palpable
diseases of tile brain often cOexist with
insanity, diseases of the brain do not
necessarily imply insanity. When
a man dies the real evidences of the sanity
or insanity of his mind are gone A
poSt-mortcm may serve to cast a doubt
in the minds of those who did not know
the patient before he dies, but it is seldom
sufficient to settle the question. Post
moTtems { o dete rhine these questions
are much like searching among the cinderS
and debris OF a burnt dwelling TO aScer-
tain the character of the dweiiers IN the
house. To attempt to prove the sanity
or insanity problem by the back action
process of a post mortem IS just as use less.
1t is useful and sometimes conclusive, but
more often is useless and delusive. 1
have no doubt that an the conditions
described were found in the autopsy, be-
cause they are not unusual either in sane or

which in the long run saves usJre money
than it costs. The woman who wGsSIs is
usually under the impression that she, OF
all people, does not need house dress,
but this is a mistake. No one needs such
a dress more than she. Young women,
who seclude themselves wholly from So
ciety, and never Expect callers in the even
ing. can get along very nicely with an
eideTcown wrapper, that can be worn i'll
their rooms. But fortunately for our work
ing classes, there are not many such young
women as these. Most girls keep on their
tight dresses. which they have been wear
ing all day, for fear somebody may call and
they will not be presentable.
A better plan than this is to provide
oneself with a pretty house dress that
is comfortable as well as presentable.
Ghallie makes q desirable dress OF this
kind, and is not expensive. The popu-
larity of the Eton jacket makes it posi-
BILE to have a waist that's loose without the
suggestion OF the negligee which is so OBJ
jectionable for a receiving dress. One that
l have seen which is shown here has Il
box-pleated Eton jacket and long skirt
slightly trained. The jacket is trimmed
with tiny bows OF ribbon, and the skirt has
strips of cheap lace insertion up the sides.
The lace may be omitted from the skirt to
save expense. Such dress Will serve its
owner for evening wear at home, for girls
teas in one room, for Sunday lounging, and
is extremely convenient TO slip on in the
morning for breakfast on Sundays or hOli-
days, when one is not compelled to go out
Immediately after. 1t may cost something
at first, but l certainly pays in the long run.
The same dress would he pretty in sateen
or percale or any cheap figured material,
and Will be found very useful for summer
wear.
A street dress with short jacket made
with vest can be wornin the summer by
removing the vest and wearing a shirt
waist underneath. Some ofthe earlyspring
costumes are made in this style.

Fred Mussev's Brilliance.

All the inhabitants of THE Row writes
"E. W. L. in the PittSburg Dispatch, are
saddened by the news from Middlebury
VT. that Mr.. Fred Mussey. one Of the
best known OF the old Washington cor
resondents, is nearing death Col. Mussey
was one ofthe most popular ofthe Washing
ton correspondents of the last decade He
was u terse and vigorous writer, of decided
originality Of style, trenchant rather than
graceful, and did an immense amount Of
good work for many a long year as pO-
litiCal correspondent for the Cincinnati Com
mercial, in Ohio, and at Washington. He
has been in poor health for several years,
and during the time of Instability has made
his home with his sister at Middlebury
While absence will soften some what the
blow of his death, the news has spread sad
ness among all who knew this bright and
genial gentleman. MuSsey was private sec
retary to Governor Foster, and made n
romantic marriage with a daughter Of
the governor, which was repented after
by both husband and wife. That episode,
with its consequent separation, was the
one gloomy passage in the life of the
brilliant correspondent
