Business Versus Residence streets

ST. Louis has a lawsuit in court which
has be1n on its hands FOR four years,
touching the right of a certain firm to
have a confectionery store on certain
street. The ground of the city's conten-
ton is that the street is a residence"
street. and that trsdespeople have no
business on il al all The supreme court
has finally declared i'm favor OF the con-
fectioner indianapolis had a similar
suit in prospect. TO prevent an undertak-
er from intruding on a residence
street.
There is something to be said ON both
sides of this question. In the ideal city,
undoubtedly, business would be con-
fined to business sections, which need
not all be i'm the center of the city. either.
The livery stable would not poison the
air and make unpleasant the nights for
people in the residence streets, and dis
agreeable noises. od0rs. and associations
would be confined to parts of the town in
which no one lived but those directly en-
gagged in disagreeable business. There
is something. extremely depressing in
watching the progress of a funeral pro-
cession every day, and sometimes often

real estate agents naturally find that the
value of their property is deprecated,
and the man who owns his house is dis

so have people who own and rent houses

1t may be said that such a business as

A LIST OF FORTRESSES.
Strength and Possessions of Other
Countries a. Compa red to- Ours.

A recent issue of Golfers Weekly con-
tanned an interesting strategic map
of the North American continent. the
West Indies. Central America and
part of South America. showing the pO-
sition of forts and cOaling stations Of
the United States, and those also of
other nations in the area indicated.
The positions Of dOckyards and subma-
rine cables are shown likewise. The
map as a whole is supposed to prove
that other countries are better pre-
pared for defense or aggression than
we are. though an enumeration of our
forts, dockyards and cOaling stations
makes long list. We have. il ap-
pears. fortifications at ROuse's Point
and Ogdensburg. on the northern from
tier of New York State; at Portland
Boston. Providence. New London. New
York city, Baltimore. Washington, Fort
Monroe. Charleston. :. c.; Savannah.
Key West, Tortugas Pensacola and
New Orleans. on the eastern side of
the continent. and on the western side
at San Francisco and several points
nearer the Canadian frontier. These
forts, however, vary greatly in their
degrees of value At Boston, New
York. Fort Monroe and San Francisco.
and perhaps at several other pla ceS,
there are some modern guns which
maybe said to be effective under mod
ern conditions. but as rule the forts
in the above list were constructed
many years ago. and are now pTaCti-
cally worthless, and the guns with
which they are armed are equally OBJ
solete.
Much the same is to be said of the
forts possessed by Spain in our Vi
cinity-at Havana, Santiago and Porto
Rico. They are hardly up to the
times. The Danish forts at st. ThOm-
as and st. CTOiX. and the Dutch fort
at Curacao are little better. Doubt
less the French fortresses at Guade-
louye and Martinique. i'm the West
Indies. are in good condition and
we'll supplied with modern guns. The
European power whose extensive com
merce and large possessions in this
hemisphere have called for the largest
measure Of protection is England. Her
fCrts-mOstly of old date-are chiefly
along the North Atlantic and in the
West Indies. Their value is in most
cases enhanced by the possession Of
drydock and Coaling station. so that
warships as well as merchant ships
have many points of supply and pro-
lection tO which they may betake
themselves in case Of need. Their are
forts along the frontier Of Canada. in

Zola's counsel is obstructed and for

elicit facts inconvenient to the state,
and everything is done to render the
trial a hideous farce and mockery OF
Justice worthy of the worst days OF
the Bourbon rule in Naples. To make
things more hideous, the worst ele-

near lynching him with several of his
companions. One of his adEerents was
seized and carried by the rabble to
bridge. and was about to be thrown
into the Seine when rescued by the
police. The whole situation is the sad

Lord Salisbury's explanation of the
Queens speech in Parliament yester-
day was not more satisfactory than the
royal message itself. His references to
the Talienwan incident especially were
disappointing. He asserted that he had
suggested the opening of Talienwan
with other ports as a desirable thing.
and China had expressed her inability
to comply, for reasons which need not
be mentioned England had replied
that it was of no Importance; any
other ancient port would do as well.
This explanation is sadly out of gear
with the recent declarations of Colo
NAL Minister Chamberlain and Sir
Michael Hicks Beach, which were to
the effect that it was case of Talien-
wan or fight Only in one direction did
the British premier show the lion S
. teeth, and then more in sorrow than
i'm anger. He referred to the French
theft of Madagascar. which had de-
stroyed British commercial treaties
with that island, and blamed Mr..
Gladstone for allowing France to in
wade it, He warned his country against
taking the risk of adventures beyond
its strength and against the rashness
which more than once in history has
been the ruin of nations as great and
powerful as ourselves" Poor Lord
Salisbury. The waters in which he has
to steer his old royal hulk Of state are

If public opinion in this country
were not busy with other things, the
amazing impudence of the Canadian
provincials with regard To our move
ments in Alaska would certainly pro-
duce general indignation. Now they
have the audacity to object to having
American troops accompany the klon-
dixie relief expedition. This is as
senseless as it is truculent. In those
savage wilds and for such a humane
purpose what other people under the
sun would think of such petty mean
ness? Have not we allowed Mexican
troops to hunt Apaches over our
boundary. and have not we returned
the compliment without the slightest
friction? But these ineXpressible
Canucks They say that American
troops must not cross into their ter
ritory with arms. 1t is as well for
them to remember that they are dam

pie. who have been very tolerant of
them. and upon whose territory they
are impudently encroaching at this
