The Cost of War.

The result of the Crimean war gave
to the British nation not one single foot
of foreign soil nor any pecuniary COM
pcnsatiOn whatsoever. The only benefit
derived from the war, which lasted two
years, was to keep Russia out of Con-
stantinopIe and give the English a way
to India and the east that was undis-
puted. For this end the British lost %,
IA men killed in action or died from
wounds, cholera or other diseases. The
loss to the French allies in the same
campaign has been estimated at 90, 500
and the Russians as high as 800, 0O0
The war also cost the British $205, 2O5,
600. War is a costly as well as dan
gcrous business. 1t is the court of last
resort with nations nowadays as it was
the first IN ancient times

Sneaker Reeds Autograph.

The Kennebec Me- Journal says that
when autograph hunters ask Speaker
Reed for his signature he writes it
rather hastily, and it is simply T. B.
Reed If the pen does not mark plainly,
the speaker does not always take pains
to dip it anew, provided there is
scrawl and all the letters are visible.
Not Sd when the Oblong forms of
parchment are handed to him from the
committee en enrolled bills, of which
Representative Hager of Iowa is chair
man. Mr.. Kinds, the clerk to the speak
er's desk, hands up the pile Of parch-
menI and the speaker carefully looks
over each. Taking them down one by
one, be writes his name slowly and care
fully. 1t does not appear as 7. b. Reed,
but as Thomas B. Reed.
The ink is dipped from bottle that
sits within a silver tray, which has
come down from the time when Henry
Clay was speaker of the house of repre-
sentatives. Then the signature is care
fully blotted, the precious parchment is
carried TO the senate and eventually
finds its way to the state department,
where it is stored among the archives.

Wooden Clogs In Japan.

"The Little Japanese at Home" is
the title Of al article by Miss Ida Tigner
Hodnett in St. Nicholas. Miss Hodnett
says:
Tabi (tah-bee), socks Of blue or white
cotton cloth, are worn on the little feet.
They are made like mittens, with a
place for the great toe separate from
the others, so as to allow the strap
which fastens on the clogs to pass be-
tween. The clogs are made of wood and
have two little wooden pegs under the
soles, high or low, according to the
taste of the wearer, but in either case
capable Of making a great clatter on
wood, stone or pebbles. Fortunately it
Is not the custom to wear any footgear
besides the socks in the house. The sin
gle strap divides into two parts, which
pass on each side of the foot and fasten
to the clog. These straps, or thongs, on
little girls clogs are sometimes gayly
coIOred. With but one fastening, it is
an easy matter to take off the clogs
when entering a house and leave them
on the veranda, and the custom is GER
tainly conducive to tidiness. 1t is a
necessary custom, for the clogs would be
Tuinous TO the fine soft mats covering
the floor.
Complexion is another important and
interesting point to the Japanese girl as
we'll as 70 her American and European
sisters.

NO GROG IN OUR NAVY.
Nevertheless Uncle Sans Seamen Are q
Match For Amy Nation.


The practice of serving out a ration
of grog daily to United States man-of-
wars men was discontinued many years
ago 1t was found TO be bad scheme.
While most of the men were able TO use
the rum in moderation, it was found
that there were many of the bluejackets
in whom the service of ration of liquor
only served to stimulate an appetite
for more, and who, after imbibing the
ships grog, would hit the beach, " en-
bark upon siZeable sprees and get into
scrapes both ashore and aboard ship
when they returned to duty more or
less shaky. When these facts were sat
isfactorily proved, the serving out Of
grog to United States man-of- wars men
was discontinued Sailors in all of the
others of the worlds great navies still
receive their daily grog
The fact probably does not prove any
thing but the writer, who has seen
man-of-war's s men of all nations ON tu-
multuous shore liberty i'll quite a few
ports of the world, has yet to see a
French, Italian or Spanish bluejacket

weather men Of the navy are bound 10
mix up in when engaged in hitting the
beach. The reason why the fact prob
ably proves nothing is that the Ameri

at all aboard his fighting packet, also
invariably contrives to chew up his

The only thing that the average old
time American bluejacket likes better
in port on the China station, say, than
fight with a French, Italian or Span
ish man-Of-war's S man, is a fight with
three or four of 'em put together. The
Latin sailors may scratch him up bit
with their finger nails-their methods
of fighting may be judged from this fact
but when the cops, otherwise the
gendarmes, appear ON the scene-to get
mauled around a heap themselves in
many cases-they generally have a few
laid out south European deep water men
to sort out of the dust. st.-ExcirnnEa-

l STRIKE THE JOLLY ROGER.

1 STRIKE THE JOLLY ROGER.
I had scarce gained position on the
bowsprit, when the flying jib tapped
and filled upon the other tack, with a
report like a gun. The schooner trem
bled to her keel under the reverse; but
next moment, the other sails still
drawing, the jib tapped back again,
and hung idle.
This had nearly tossed me off into
the sea; and now L lost no time, crawled

been swabbed since the mutiny, bore
the print of many feet; and an empty
bottle, broken by the neck, tumbled to
and fro like a live thing in the Scuppers.
Suddenly the 'Hispaniola" came
right into the wind. The jibs behind
me cracked aloud; the rudder slammed
to; the whole ship gave a sickening
heave and shudder, and at the same
moment the main-boom swung in
board, the sheet grooming in the blocks,
and showed me the lee after-deck.
There were the two watchmen, sure
enough; red-cap on his back, as stiff as
a handspike, with his arms stretched
out like those of a crucifiX, and his
teeth showing through his open lips;
Israel Hands propped against the bull
warks. his chin on his chest, his hands
lying open before him on the deck, his
face as white, under its tan. as a tai
low candle.
For awhile the ship kept buclling and
siding like a vicious horse, the sails
filling, now en- one tack, now on an
other. and the boom swinging to and
fro till the mast groaned aloud under
the strain. Now and again, too, there
would come a cloud of light spray over

THE CRUIsEsOF THE CORACLE.

THE CRU1SEsOF THE CORACLE.
1t was broad day when L awOke, and
found myself tossing at the southwest
end of Treasure island. The sun was
up, but was still hid from me behind
the great bulk of the Spy-glass, which
on this side descended almost to the
sea in formidable cliffs.
Haulbowline Head and Mizzenmast
Hill were at my elbow; the hill bare and
dark, the head bound with cliffs 40 or
so feet high and fringed with great
masses of fallen rock. L was scarce a
quarter of a mile to seward, and it
was my first thought to paddle in and
land.
That notion was soon given over
Among the fallen rocks the breakers
spouted and beloved; loud reverbera-
tions, heavy sprays flying and falling,
succeeded one another from second to
second, and / saw myself, if ventured
nearer, dashed to death upon the rough
shore or spending my strength in vain
10 scale the beetling crags.
Nor was that all; for, crawling to-
gether or fat tables of rock or letting
themselves drop into the sea with loud
reports, 1 beheld huge Shiny monsters
soft snails, as it were, of incredible
bigness-two or three score of them to-
gether, making the rocks echo with
their barkings.
1 have understood since that they
were sea lions and entirely harmless.
But the look of them, added to the
difficulty of the shore and the high
running of the surf, was more than
enough to disgust me of that landing
place. 1 felt willing rather to starve
Iat sea than to confront such peri,s.

Famous Incident of the Rebellion Re-

During the American civil war two
ENJOYS of the confederate states,
Messrs. Mason and Slidell, were seized
On board an English ship. This insult
to the British flag could not be passed
over, and disastrous war between Eng
land and the northern states of the
American union seemed inevitable The
prince consOrt was at that time sink
ing under his fatal illness, but not
withstanding the anxiety of the queen
on his account, her mind was unceas-
ingly active TO devise means of prevent
ing war. We are in position to state
on the authority of one of the most
prominent statesmen of our time and
one who had the honor of enjoying in
a special manner the confidence of her
majesty, that it was the queen herself,
III opposition to the views of her min
listers and of the distinguished man in
question among them. who averted the
war. She insisted that the dispatch
which was sent to America demanding
peremptorily the surrender of the en-
voys should be communicated at once to
all the powers and the grave conse-
quences of the conflict from an interna-
tional point of view pointed out.
The result was an able state paper
sent to Washington by Mr.. Thouvenel.
in which he stated that France regarded
the act of the American captain who
had arrested the confederate ENJOYS on
board an English ship as quite UNJUST
fable and expressed the hope that tn.
federal government would accede to thu
demands of Great Britain. Austria ano
Prussia Immediately followed suit. AID
Prince GOrtschakoff. on the part of Rus

monstrances from the powers enabled
the government of Washington to es-
cape without humiliation from an I'M
tenable position and saved England
from entering into a war which would
in all human probability have ended
in the disruption of the American union

At the same time, observed, around

that they had killed each other in their

While l was thus looking and won

He rolled his eyes round heavily; but
he was too far gone to express surprise.
All he could do was to utter one word:
Brandy"
1t occurred to me there was no time
to lose; and, lodging the boom as it
once more lurched across the deck, L
slipped aft, and down the companion
stairs into the cabin.
1t was such scene of confusion as
you can hardly fancy. All the lockfast
places had been broken open in quest of
the chart. The floor was thick with
mud, where ruffians had sat down to
drink or consult after wading in the
marshes round their camp. The bulk
heads, all painted in clear white, and
beaded round with gilt, bore a pattern
of dirty hands. Dozens of empty bot
ties clinked together in corners to the
rolling of the ship. One of the doctors

mutiny began, not a man of them could
ever have been sober.
