petition and gives the following
brief but exhaustive opinion and

applicable to the case at issue to
sustain his denial, and as it is a
case at law that has much inter

opinion in ful':

but as the court had authority to
sentence the petitioner to impris-

The Letter.

We hated to think De Lome wrote that letter. Amerlcans thought likely that in his heart he despised the Amer iean people and thought President Mo Kinley flow politician, /" but they did give him credit for having common sense enough not to say such thing even to himself. He finally showed, however, that he had not even horse sense. He made the worst break for. eign minister could have made. Do Loma, the veneered gentleman, the hypocrite, is another late but not la mented hlghborn Spaniard gone to join Weyler. He put into actual words the opinion of not only himself but of the whole Spanish government and people ia regard to this country, that, too, aft CT both the Cleveland and the Mckinley administration have strained themselves to favor and bolster up tho rotten wick d and monstreus cause of Spain in Cuba De home in Washington was treated with particular courtesy and tenderness.
 Now all mankind can see the result of this course on our part. The Cuban junta in New York never did so splen- did stroke of business for the patriot cause as when it succeeded in stealing and making public that villainous De Lonle letter. It certainly ruined De t.oale. rernaps also 1t may rree Uupa.

Not Tall Enough.

Just at the time when vague reports were beginning to creep abroad that Germany was medita ting fresh exten- sion of her frontier at the expense of Holland a Dutch official of high rank happened to be visiting the court of Berlin, and among other spectacles got up to amuse him a review was organized Ut Potsdam.
 What does your exoellency think of our soldiers?" asked Prince Bismarck as one of the regiments came marching past in admirable order.
 ''They look as if they knew how to fight, replied the visitor gravely, but they are not quite tall enough. 7"
 The prince looked rather surpriseds but made no answer, and several othef regiments filed past in succession, but the Dutchman's verdict upon each waa still tho same, Not tall enough.
 At length the grenad1ers of the guard made their appearance--a magnificent body of veterans big and stalwart enough to have satisned even the giant loving father of Frederick the Great, but the inexorable critic merely said, "Fine soldiers, but not tall enough"
 Then Prince Bismarck rejoined 'These grenadiers are the finest men in our whole army. May ask what your excellency is pleased to mean by saying that they are not tall enough?"
 The Dutchman looked him full in the face and replied, with significant em- phasis, "I mean that we can flood our country 12 feet deep. "-London Tit Bits

ENGLAND WANTED WAR.
Meid Back From Fighting France In 1898
 by the German Emperor.

 meId Back From Fighting France In fs9s
 by the German Emperor.
 The Gaulois, in Paris, recently re- lated in considerable detail that during the Sia1nese imbroglio of 1893 England was OH the verge of declaring war against France. The power that opposed the war most vigorously was Germany. In fact. said the Gaulois, the war was prevented by the German emperor
 At that time, {" said the Gaulois Emperor William was at Cowes with his yacht. He had won a regatta prize from Lord Dunraven s Valkyrie and the Prince of Wales Britannia. He appear ed, literally as well as figuratiyely, to swim in English waters 1t was as he sat at dinner in the house of the Roya2 Yacht squadron that he received from Count Hatzfeldt the news that the Eng fish government intended to declare war against France. The emperor rose from the table, laid aside his napkin and sent a dispatch empowering his ambassador in London to protest against Lord Rose- bery's programme Moreover, he be. took himself at once to Osborne House to announce to his grandmother that he never could approve such a course as re. gards Siam. ''
 Sometimes Paris newspapers publish articles on European politics that lack all foundation i'll fact, and the amazing story told by the Gaulois might have been dismissed as one of them had it not been confirmed at once by the Koel- nische zeitung, probably the most trust worthy journal on the European eonti- nent The Koelnische Zeitung's Paris correspondent was at Cowes with the emperor ill 1898. As soon as the Gau. lois had made it's statement he corrobo- rated if Among tbe influential English. men at Cowes, he said, it was then common talk that the German emperor was England's ally against Siam and France Lord Dufferin, then English ambassador in Paris, had come to Gowes to conclude the negotiations for an alli- ance, but had been met with the emper- or's blunt refusal to take the active part that England wished to assign him. The Koelnische Zeitung's correspondent as. serts that the correctness of this state- ment is absolute and beyond question among the initiated who were at Gowes during the German emperor's sojourn there

Byron's Marriage.

Swift said, .'No wise man ever mar ried. Byron's marriage was an act of lunacy. The very manner of it's begin ming was insincere and theatrical. His friends had been urging him to marry, so he wrote two proposa.s-sort oe "sealed tenders' -and sent them to two young ladies. One of them declined, the other accepted. Naturally Byron mar ried the latter. The rest is known, and for this part of his life has the poet suf- fered strongest criticism. It did not die with his death, but the evil that he did lived after him, while the good was seemingly 'fentombed with his bones. ' Tue world holds as most potent proof of his insincerity that he made his wife's existence a purgatory, finally drove her from his house, even refusing to sE2ke hands with her at the last goodby, and then wrote
 Fare thee we'll, and, If forever.
 Still forever fare tnee well
 Even though unforgivng, never
 'Gainst thee shall my heart rebel.
 These words were set to music and sung with tears by young girls all over the EngIlsh speaklnS world, who felE that Lady Byron was hard hearted. wicked wretch to so desert her grief crushed husband. h fact the poor lady never saw the verses until she beheld them in print and read with astonished eyes:
 Fare thee welll Thus disunited.

The tone of republican as well as democratic newspapers is depre- citory of Pres. McRinley's mes- sage on the Maine affair.
 The World says. "The pre,i- dents message is inadequate, dis appointing and chilling document. This trust in Spanish justice and honor cannot have been drawn from the history of Spain nor from any manifestation of Spanish char. acter m Cuba. But what has the president to say as to the course of action required by our govern ment and reparation demanded by our sense of honor and justice? Why is the initiative left to Spiin? Is this the way that England pro ceeded at Alexandria or Germany at Hayti? Is this what any first class European power would d, in like circums ancrs? There is a time to stop d.liberating and pro. ceed to action. This time has come in the Spanish-C ,ban crisis"
 The Journal says: That is ab- solutely all the comment the p-esi dent has to make Ipon an act of murderous treachery that stands alone in modern history. H. has less to say about the destruction of an American battle-ship and the murder of 266 American sailors than he would say about a propo- sitioL to fill Potomac flats. He humbly holds out his hat at Spain and trusts that she will drop into it something satisfactory to us or at least to herself. And this is what We have been arming for so osten. tatiously in the sight of an admir- ing world 1t is for this we have been securing the military markets of Europe and printing our war ships a greenish gray.

A story comes from Skaguay il- illustrative of the systematic manner in which reports from the Klondike are exaggerated by the steamship companies to keep interest in Alas<a and the Northwest Territory alive. Two men came from Daw- son City over Chilkoot Pass to the coast having m their possession the munificent sums of forty and sixty cents each. They were anxious to get to San Francisco and ap- preached the captain of south. bound yess-l on the subject, who readily consented to land them at the Golden Cat, if they would sign a statement that they had with them 4D,0j0s and 60,000s in Klon- dike nuggets.
