message sent with reference to future
operations at Manila and Whereabouts.
1t is known that they contain full
and final instructions as to the fate of
the subjugated territory, but as they
are sealed and will be opened only by
Commodore Dewey, the intents of the
chief executive will not be generally
known to us until they are carried into
effect.
Connection with the fleet by cable is
tic be re-established as soon as we
reach Manila. A cable code operator
is now on board the revenue cutter
with all of the instruments, wires and
other necessary appliances with which
to set up a cable station.
The broken cable, which is already
secured, is to be hauled aboard the
transport Zafiro. and there will be con-
slant communication between the fleet
and the United States.
The Zafiro is one of the big trans
ports or GOLFERS chartered by Commo-
dore Dewey and taken with the squad
ron laden with supplies. 1t will make
an admirable terminal for the cable.

REFLECTIONS OF A BACHELOR

The devil succeeds because he never
knows when he's been snubbed.
A woman's first thought when she
sees company coming is her canned
fruit.
No healthy girl who is over II years
old has any business believing that
love is caused by vibrations.
After a girl has had q. quarrel with
another she always makes up her mind
what she won't say when she meets
her and then says it.
The first thing the average woman
thinks when she hears that some
actress is very sick is to wonder what
will become of all the dresses she has.

But the lighting soul of fighting man. approved

Went to the front in that ambulance, and the body
Of Fighting Joe.
Out from the front they were coming back smit-

Wounded boys from the Vermont hills and the Ala

Put them into this ambulance; I'll ride to the
'front.' he said;
And he climbed to the saddle and rode right on

From end to end Of the long blue ranks up the
ringing cheers,
And many a powder-blackened face was furrowed
with sudden tears,
As with flashing eyes and cleaning sword and hair
and beard OF sn0w,
Into the hell Of shot and shell rode little old Fight

Sick with feve4 and racked with pain, he could not
For he heard the song Of the yester-years in the

He heard In the calling song OF the guns there

Beats out in love and rezerenee-and to each dear

THE NOBILITY OF JAPAN.
Rapid IucreRse in the Number of
Peers In Recent Years.
From the Janan Weakly Ty,res

Rapid IucreRse in the Number of
Peers I'm Recent Years.
From the Japan Weekly Times
Seeing that the peerage is a class that
ought to be honored and respected. the
Osaka Mainichl considers II q pity that in
several instances members of the privileged
class have acquitted themselves in such a
way as to bring disgrace upon themselves.
The journal fears the cases cited will In
crease in proportion to the multiplication
of peers. According to our contemporary
there are at present no noble families in ia
pan, against total number of 5, 100000 fam
lilies. Notwithstanding this Insignificant ra-
ito in comparison with the total families in
the empire, the number of the aristocratic
families shows a striking rate of increase.
When the peerage law was first enforced.
in 1884, the mobiles were estimated at Jva
families. 1t is therefore clear that 201
families have been added during the last
fourteen years. Although this large addi-
ton is due to the creation of number of
new peers in recognition of services rem
dered by them in connection with the late
war with China, the future tendency to in
crease can easily be anticipated. The jour
nal reluctantly declares that the multiple
cation of the nobility will involve in
crease of peers unable to maintain the
dignity worthy of the exalted class. The
daimio CORNER feudal lords) mobiles are
placed IN such circumstances as are favor
able to keep up their dignity being rela-
lively well of and supported by their for
mer retainers But, on the other hand,
the kuge QorIner court nobles) or other
mobiles are continually subject to influences
threatening their corruption and degensra-
ton.
In order that a wholesome moral tone be
preserved among the nobility of this coun-
try the Osaka Malnichi proposes that the
authorities should adopt the following pro-
visions: % That If a nobleman fail to re-
cover the credit he has lost by his un-
worthy conduct the title should not be al
lowed to pass to his heir t2) That IL a
newly created peer decline to make the
honor successive such request shall be &C
cepted. Further, the journal suggests that
the custom to elevate worthy man to the
peerage when he is on his deathbed should
be abolished, and that the distinction should
De conferred at a time when he is still
able to appreciate il and TO decide whether
the honor should or should not be Inherited
by his posterity 1t is to be understood
that our Osaka contemporary recommends
the measure as a means Of purifying the pa
trlclan atmosphere, not because the mobiles
alone are the protectors of the imperial
householc-which would be an absurd and
entiquated notion-but because the future

Queer Story of Two Lakes.


Tho Wetternsee in Sweden, like so many
other lakes, has long enjoyed the local rep
utation Of being a bottomless pit The
Swedish scientists have now destroyed the
bile legend, for In the measurements
taken few days ago they have success
fully demonstrated that the greatest depth
of the lake is only 119 meters. There still
re mains, however, a series OF mysteries
which science must be content to leave UNI
sclved-at least for a time. 1t is not only
legendary belief, but there is a quasi
scientific ground for the queer supposition
that living creatures, animal and vegeta-
bic, can and d. make Journeys to and fro
between the high northern Lake OF Wet
tern and the South German Lake of CON-
stance. This bold conclusion has been part
ly justified by the appearance of exactly
the same fauna. and even of the same an
imal life. in the Swedish and the Swapian
inland seas. 1t is even asserted that when
eN er there Is O storm on the Lake of Con-
stance the Lake of Wettern begins sym
pathetically to roll and swell, and that the
southern lake Is similarly moved by any
agitation in the distant northern lake. The
Kleine zeitung soberly declares this sympa-
thetic phenomenon to be known fact but
considerably ADDS that we have to walt
some time for the rational explanation Of it,
it.

One Of the big frontier six-shooters used

The real cowboy and veteran miner will
carry nothing else. Both despise double
action or self-cocking pistol and In the
Cow country 1t is a common thing for
ranchmen to take out the triggers of their
slx-shooters and fire them by manipulating
the hammer with the thumb. To see an
expert do this is to witness a pretty piece
of juggling Another oddly of frontier re-
volver etiquette Is in the way the weapon
is carried. Many cowboys sling II in a
