Diplomatic Triumph.



What threatened to be a most ugly inter
national dispute disappears with the signing
of the Anglo-French convention yesterday
respecting the division of territory on the
Niger. The settlement has been made In a
way to enable each side to claim victory

diplomacy. The French retain a part OF

The building which was dedicated yester-
day is architecturaliy unique. 1t is built
upon lot, the elevation of which is about
three. feet above the street grade The
building is squatty and the roof comes down
to within a dozen feet of the ground. The
Mexican adobe house is suggested by the
construction, and one expects, on opening
down to the level of the street. 1t is hard
to believe that it is not half underground.
But once inside it is found that the build
ing is roomy and comfortable. The side
walls are not over eleven feet high, and are
covered with plastering which lacks the
usual white coat. The long rafters which
hold the roof start here and slope rapidly,
making the hight to the ceiling ia the mid
die of the room about thirty feet. All the
rafters are exposed to view and the roof
is the ceiling. The windows are narrow and
extend almost from floor to ceiling and are
of pink glass. The pulpit is suggestive of
stage. On either side of it are little square
rooms, cut out suggestive Of the wings of
the stage. There are only these two little
classrooms and the auditorium, but an ar
rangement is made whereby two or three
other rooms for Sunday-school classes can
be made by drawing curtains. Substantial
oak peWS give the church complete ap-
pearance and seat about two hundred per-
sons. The furnishing in addition to the
seats are plain, but of good quality.
Not only did the North Park Church ded-
icate its new home yesterday but it cele-
brated as well its first anniversary. 1t was
organized year ago by Rev. James NJ.

phfladelnhia RECORD


Much of the difficulty over alleged scanty
rations in camp among the volunteers has
unquestionably been due TO the radical diff
ference between real military encamp-
E.ent and the snowy holiday affairs which
passed for encampments among State milf
fiamen. 1t has been largely the custom in
times past to make smooth and easy the
way OF the national guardsmen in CAMP
The grounds have been laid out and the
tents pitched by professional experts; the
arms and equipments have been cared for
by armorers, and the food furnished by
caterers. The volunteer soldier must now
set up his own tent, keep his weapons and
uniform bright and clean, and cook his own
rations with such utensils as the govern
ment may furnish. Troops OF the regular
army are used TO tEis sort of life; and the
volunteers will not be slow in acquiring the
trick of self-reliance in camp.
The difficulties and privations which the
men have encountered in their first expe-
rience In active service should suggest the
advisability of conforming the conditions
of future militia encampments as nearly as
possible to those OF actual service in the
field.

A single rabbit in young orchard will
soon destroy a hundred trees, and a
fruit tree is worth more than dollar
for each year it has grown in the or
chard. Some recommend shooting a
rabbit, cutting him in halves and rub
bng the trees with the bloody sides for
a foot or two above ground. This GER
tainly might save some of the trees, for
if all the rabbits were treated in this
way the trees would be safe. Most
washes are ineffective for this purpose,
and axle grease, coal tar and kerosene
are dangerous and will kill young
trees. The best protection is fine wire

MaXimS for the Stable.

Men who handle horses should study
the mental as we'll as the physical con-
stitution of the noble animals, says the
Massachusetts Ploughman.
The study is not a mere fad or whim
idea, for the horse is so constantly in
contact with humanity that he is sub
jected to many things that are con-
trary to his nature. In domestication
the horse must depend for everything
upon those who own him. or, at least,
who care for him in the stable and
drive him. Every attendant should
keep certain things in mind always.
Here are few of these things:
You can get no more power from a
horse than you give him in his food.
Yelling and jerking the bit confuse a
horse and advertise a blockhead.
The horse is mans valuable helper
and should be treated as friend.
The best drivers talk most to their
animals.
