What They Get.
DRY GOODS STORE.


From the following taken from q
Washington dispatch to the Cleveland
Leader it will be seen that the victors at
Santiago will get something more than
lame and glory. No one questions their
patriotism but it will be seen that there
are other things that may have inspired
them to fight:
Something over $500, 900 will be paid
by this government a. mead money" TO
the officers and sailors who DESTROYED
Cervera's feet. This is according 20 the
law which provides payment Of 500 q
head Tor every man on the ships OF an
enemy when these ships are destroy d.
A few of the officers will receive pretty
good fortunes.
The Law governing the distribution
OF this money is very explicit. There
are exact provisions for carrying it into
effect, and every man, according to his
rank, will be paid in due season. This
statute is - follows:
A bounty shall be paid by the United
States for each person on board any ship
or vessel belonging to an enemy ct. the
commencement of an engagement which
Is SUNG or otherwise destroyed in such
engagement by any ship or vessel belong.

be necessary to destroy in consequence
OF injury sustained in action, of 500 II
enemy's vessel was Of inferior force and
500 II OF equal or superior force, to be
divided in the same manner as prize
money, and when the actual number Of
mea on board any such vessel cannot
be satisfactorily ascertained it shall be
~ tad I'D inn 10
allowed the vessels of its class in the
navy OF the United States; and There
shall be paid as bounty to the captors of
any vessel of war captured from an enc.
my, which they may be instructed to
DESTROY or which 10 destroyed for the
public interest but not in consequences
Of injuries received in action $500 ior
every person who shall be on board II

According to this law the officers and
men OF Sampson's fleet will be entitled
to 500 for every officer and man on

Americans have been surprised by
 the evidence of the hostility of conti-
 mental Europe to the stand this coun-
 try has taken on the Cuban question.
 We have disclaimed a desire to annex
 Cuba to the United States; we have no
 race hostility to Spain or to Spaniards;
 we have left to ourselves no motive to
 war, and nothing to gain by success,
 save to deliver the island from misrule
 and barbarity. Yet we are described
 throughout the continent as little bet
 ter than brigands. It would be open
 to us to retOrt, If 1t were worth while,
 that France, which has dismembered
 Siam and seized Madagascar; that
 Russia, which has overrun Asia; that
 Germany, which has carved slice off China, which cOvets Samoa, which de- l prived Denmark of Schleswig- Holstein and France of Alsace- -Loraine; that
 Austria-H Hungary, which took from Turkey Its provinces of Bosnia and the | HerZegOvina-that not one of these
 countries Is in a position to reproach
 us with territorial brigandage, If the
 charge were true. Of course 1t is not
 that they are shocked at the thought
 that we could contemplate taking pos.
 session of Cuba. The explanation is
 doubtless twofold. In the first place.
 they do not relish the idea of the Uni.
 ted States having any part in European politics. However ready they may be to take territory from one another, or from sovereigns whom they regard as barbarians, they do not wish America to dispOssess one of them of one of it's colonies, even if 1t is not to take that colony as its own. But there is some thing much deeper than this They are all excessively jealous of Great Britain. and of its power in all parts of the world. They see that this war has brought England and the United States upon terms not of alliance, but of sym pathy and friendship, which are better than any paper alliance. Fortunately their OutspOken i'll will can do us no harm. Not one of them dares, and even all of them combined would hardly dare, to put their hostility in practice, so long as England stands ready-as she seems to dO-tO be as active in our behalf as they are against us. So the friendship of Great Britain at this time Is of far more consequence to us than is the yelled hostility of all Europe. Let us hope that John Bulls fine atti- tude toward us may lead us all to think of something beside our old griey- ances against him.
The St. Johns herald., 1898-08-27

This European jealousy of America is in its origin partly economic or com mercial, partly military and partly the result of that form of bigotry known as national prejudice, which Is by no means confined to the uneducated class es. The continental military nations have always feared and hated England because of the sharp curb on their am- bitions imposed by the English prepon- derance of sea power. Now they see another country less vulnerable than England about to assume a similar po- sition and ready to make effective in any part of the world the command, Hands offr'

Printers Errors.

Of printers errors there is no end. Some of them are so exasperating that one can almost believe the story told by MT. c. T. Jacobi in his "Gesta Typo graphica" of a French writer's con- hitting suicide whene he found three hundred misprints in his book, which he had carefully revised, but which a too Jealous proOfreader had stuffed with mistakes. Murder, not suicide, seems the appropriate remedy in such cases. What is known as mix" leads to some of the finest displays of the natural depravity of types, as in the following, taken from a recent issue of Dublin newspapers: 'Dr. F. has been appointed resident medical officer to the Mater Misericordia hospital. Or. ders have been issued by the cemetery committee for the immediate extension of GlasneVin cemetery. The works are being executed with the utmost dis patch. New York Evening Post.
The St. Johns herald., 1898-08-27

A correspondent of the New York Evening Post, writing from China, notes two remarkable phenomena which are manifesting themselves in that country. One Is the abandonment or the immemorial contempt for the foreigner. The ignorant crowds in a village will shout foreign devil" at an Occidental, but among the more intelli- gent classes there is a growing convic- ton that they must learn the secret of Western success. As one step towards It the Government is establishing mi versailles at Pekin, Tien-Tsin and Shanghai, where the English language will be taught. There is also a rapidly increasing sale of Western books and the Government has even decided to make questions in Western history and science a test for hOnOrs in the exam ations. The other noteworthy fact is the hospitality shown to the idea of for eigners taking possession of important parts of Chinese territory. All of which shows that new life is fermenting in the centuries old Chinese Empire to which the Western world will have to give heed.

Spanish Pride.

Spanish pride Is proverbial. An in- cident in the life of Lord Cochrane. the
 Earl of Dudenald, Is Illustrative. Lord
 Cochrane, In command of a little brig.
 the Speedy, in broad daylight, cap-
 tured the Spanish frigate. the Gamo.
 The Speedy carried crew of fifty men.
 and threw broadside of twenty-eight pounds of metal; the Gamo crew sf 300 men and a broadside of over 161 pounds. The Speedy had previously, through a ruse, escaped from a large Spanish ship in the night, and some of her officers rather criticised the ac- tion of her captain on the occasion In that he did not make an effort to capture the Spaniard. This made Coch- rane mad. So when the enemy came up he hove to, as if about to surrender. Suddenly puff of wind carried him alongside. He grappled and boarded, The Speedy lay so low her opponent was unable to depress the guns sniff. cient to hit her, while the Englishmsn made every shot tell. The boarders after stout opposition, carried the enc. my. When the action was over the Spanish captain requested some certif- cate from Dudenald as Go the way in which he had fought the ship. He re- ceived one: ''This certifies that Capt.
 -, of the Spanish frigate Gamo, fought his issue like true SpaniardP' The defeated gentleman was greatly pleased, and so was the nation, for on home he was immediately given another and more important com and Navy Journal.
