Mil1ais' Portrait of Gladstone.

how Sir Charles Tenant came tSsgive
the Millais portrait of Mr.. Gladstone tC
the nation. He was a guest at the re-
cent academy dinner, and i'll the course
Of the evening conversation arose about
portraits of Mr. Gladstone. The various
pictures in existence were discussed,
and it was agreed that Sir Charles Ten
nant was possessor of the prize. It was
jestingly said that Sir Charles Tenant
could not do less than bequtath to the
nation his portrait of Mr.. Gladstone.
The idea was joyously taken up and
pressed upon Sir Charles, who stubborn
~ shook his head, but the seed fell on
fruitful ground. On the following Sat
urday, at the academy banquet, Sir Ed
ward Poynter was able to announce that
Sir Charles would hand over his treas
ure to the nation.

The records of the most remarka-
BILE fiscal year in the commerce of the
United States, recently issued by the
Bureau of Statistics, is of especial in
terest when compared with that of
the preceding fiscal year. Not only
does the years record surpass that of
any previous year in the total expor-
tat1ons and total exports of maDufac-
tured articles, but for the first time
in the history of the country the ex-
ports are nearly twice as great as the
imports, and the exports of manu-
features exceed the imports of manu-
features. The value of the exports of
the fiscal year 1898 is more than seven
times that of the expectations of
1860, four times as much as that of
1869, twice as much as that in 1877, go
per cent more than that in 1887, 20
per cent in excess OF that great COM
mercial year of 1892, ard $3.50, 100000
more than that in the greatest year
Of this country's export trade-1897.
The great falling off in imports in
the last fiscal year is due in part to
the enormous anticipatory importa
lions and in part to the higher duties
in the new tariff. A better idea of
the effects of the Dingley tariff may
be gained from the more recent
monthly reports of the Bureau of Sta
t!stics, in the trade reports from the
principal industrial centers abroad,
and in the increased prosperity of
many of our manufacturing indus
tries.

Sealed Orders.

The custom Of having warships sail
under sealed orders has arisen from
the desire Of maritime powers to pre-
vent their plans from becoming known
to the enemy.
In the American navy such orders
come from the president and are deliv-
cred to d commander Of q ship or squad
ron by confidential messenger, who
knows nothing Of their contents
Sometimes they are in cipher. but
they are always sealed with the official
seal Of the navy department. and the
package cannot be opened until the time
marked on it, which is usually several
hours after the hour Of leaving port
By this precaution the newspapers
are prevented from disclosing prema-
turely the movements which may be of
the greatest Importance and the spies Of
the enemy are rendered useless SO far as
their ability to discover the secret of
such movements is concerned.
Sailing under sealed orders is now
the common naval practice in time Of
war.
These instructions are found in the
packet Of 'sealed orders,' which is
opened when we'll out to sea.

A Novel Candidacy.

The little town Of Auxerre, in Bur
gundy, is enjoying a strange electioneer-
ing experience. The rival candidates, a
Radical and a Republican, have deter
mined to prove that an election can be
fought in a spirit Of true friendship.
They have accordingly come before the
electorate on the same platform and
harangued the astonished people in
turns. They even make the round Of
their constituency III the same carriage
and air their respective views at the
same time from either side Of the We
hicle. After long days campaigning
they return to the hotel where they are
living together and dine at the same
table. Their supporters, strange to say,
are furious at what they call the treach-
cry of their respective candidate to their
parties, and now that the first astOnish-
ment has cooled down the electors of
AuXerre are inclined to give these ami
cable rivals warm time Of it. They
naturally conclude when the two are
seen walking arm in arm to the same
meeting that there is something more
than a secret compact between these
candidates. Rival politicians may dine
together in the commons or the senate,
but they must take care occasionally to
denOunce one another in their cOnstitu-
encies, or the electorate will take to
calling them names or even adopt more
extreme measures of diSapprOval.-

To His Office on a Tandem.

A wealthy West Side resident is taken
to his Office on La Sale street each
morning on a tandem propelled by a
liveried servant. The employee sits in
front and scorches down the boulevard
The employer perches behind, and, lazi-
ly keeping his feet on the pedals, reads
the morning newspaper. In the after
noon 'the coachman'' calls at the Office
with the tandem, and the trip Rome is
made in the same way.
Occasionally the wealthy man throws
his energy into the pedals, and the
wheel FORCES ahead with great burst
of speed. but as a rule he is too much
engrossed with his reading to do, any
work. Two years ago this citizen drove
to and from his Office in carriage. He
would not change back for great deal.

Young men, who are so anxious to
leave the farm and seek their fortunes
in the towns, will do well to make a
comparative study of farm lite and
town life before they make the
change. The young man on the farm
is far better, purer, nOhler being
than the average young man in the
city. The young farmer is far more
Independent than the city worker, in
hard times as we'll as in good times.
Farm life may be eXacting and oner
Gus, but so is city life. The young
farmer, who sacrifices a good social
standing at home for a position of
underpaid and Overworked nobody
ism in the city, is foolish. At home
he is the equal of the best, and in the
hardest times be is sure of a decent
living, while in the city he is made to
feel that he is the equal of only those
whom he despises, and in hard times,
unless he can draw on the indulgent
folks at home, he is a beggar and a
tramp as soon as his position is lost.
Farmers sons, who banker after city
life and occupations, geneI ally claim
that they are ''ambitious." The truth
is, in most cases, that they are simply
unwise or foolish.

CURRENT MISCELLANY.

The Spanish nation lost it's colonies
not because they were strong, but be-
cause the home country was decaying.
In 1875 Spain was swept into the mael-
strom of the NaDoleonic wars, and the
French treated her in succession as an
enemy, ally, dupe, dependent province
and despairing rebel When in 1907 the
king Of Spain was put under lock and
key by Napoleon, the Spanish colonies
began to take charge of their own af
fairs, and they never for a moment &C
knowledged French domination. In
1914 they returned to a nominal allie
glance to Spain, but they had tasted the
sweets of independence; they broke loose
again, and by 1923 Spain had nothing
left on the continent of America except
an empty claim to sovereignty and the
two castles of CallaO and San Juan de
Ulloa.
Since that time the hold Of Spain on
Cuba has always been that cf harsh
administration in disaffectea province.
The Spanish principle has been that Of
'stick fast''-to grant nothing in priv
ileges, reforms, territory or humane
treatment except under pressure. If the
Cubans wanted better government, the
only method that they knew has been to
revolt Under these conditions Cuba
would long since have ceased to be

his comrades. "This man is evidently

"Rope or bullet?'' snapped the Cuban
grimly.

The general stepped aside with a
wave of his hand. The Spanish captain
held his head erect, facing his fate,
scowling and defiant.
The firing squad which had been de-
tailed for the work stepped forward,
and when their rifles rang out the pris-
oner's head fell back. Every bullet had
pierced his heart.
The Cubans brought their horses from
the surrounding bushes and mounted
in some haste.
''Shall we bury him?'' asked Vando.
"Did he bury the murdered Red Cross
nurse?" was the question asked in re-
turn by the commander.
