MAP STUDIES.

Baltimore Sun.
The present is time of great searching
of maps. Aliases which have been gath
ering dust for years are taken from the
top shelves and scanned to find out just
where the Philippine islands are and how
far Manila is from other places. The time
problem Is studied and thousands of peo-
pie now understand for the first time
when the day begins, and much Informal
ton about longitude is acquired. People
have better idea of the relative positions
of the various West India Islands and
many have been surprised by the infor-
nation they have absorbed. Histories as
well as maps are studied. All want to
know about Havana, Manila, San Juan
There is inquiry about the resources Of
the Spanish islands, the character of the
people, the climate, and what not. Even
Spanish names are scrutinized. The fact
that there is a MORO Castle at Havana
and one at San Juan, Porto Rico, has
naturally excited some inquiry. The word
is the Spanish term for promontory. II
is sometimes spelled Moro" but this
is incorrect, the error arising from the
long prevalent idea that the word as
intended to mean The Moor" as applied
to these Spanish forts. The name of the
fertilization at Havana is Castillo del
Moro, the castle of the promontory.

THE DIPLOMATIC SITUATION.

Philadelphia Inquirer.
Once more President Mckinley has
stretched the olive branch of peace to
Spain and once more it has been refused.
The Don has not yet fully learned the
lesson of Cavite and so when the Wash
ington government sounded the foreign
offices of Europe as to what terms Spain
would make it discovered that she would
be satisfied with nothing short of with
drawal from Cuba and the Philippines, or,
as diplomats phrase it, the status quo
ante bellum. Such a proposal was ride
ulous, and apparently the President has
wisely forborne to press his point.

THE CENSORSHIP.

New York World.
a censorship of press dispatches which
will prevent the publication of news that
would give information to the enemy is
an obvious precaution for the public safe
ty to which no one would or could OBJ
ject. And in case of doubt it would be
the duty of such censorship to give the
benefit of such doubt to the cause of pub
lie safety.
But at the same time it should be borne
in mind that the publication of war news
is also a valuable feature of campaign.
Public sentiment counts for much; moral
effects have their material value. If it
is necessary to suppress news which
ought not to be published, it is important
to give to the public such full knowledge
of their affairs as is not incompatible
with the public interests.
1t is to be hoped that the censorship
now in force with us will be directed in
! this spirit, and will be as liberal in the
permission of proper news it will be
| rigid in the suppression Of improper news.

Possibly few trees in tho old world
are more profitable than the English
walnut, which thrives in England and
all over the northern part OF the oonti-

trees of 10 years of age and upward.
There is always a good demand for tho
nuts, so that there arc two distinct lines

In our country they thrive in any por-

they progress northwardly. the tips Of
the last years shoots are destroyed by
winter The living portions push out
again, however, and generally bear as
abundantly as before.
In the vicinity of Philadelphia there
are numerous trees, planted by the early
German settlers, which bear every year.
Single or isolated trees sometimes fail
to bear fruit ON account of the pollen
bearing flower maturing and scattering
pollen before the nut bearing flower is
in condition to receive it, and for this
reason crops are more assured when q
