.a perception taat io is better worth while to improve trade reIa- lions between Eranceand lhe United States than to destroy them by a crusade to support the moribund Spanish cause. While the ro;sv boulevard press has been sending Examinations at the United States the Government has taken it's posi- ton of neutrality, and at the same time proceeded in the negotiations winch open the way to a larger ex- change of American products for French goods. This is not saying that the attitude of either the French or the German Governments might not have more ia harmony with the journalistic nIamor in both countries if it had not been for the readiness of England to join hands with the United States; but 1t is plain that the present Govern mental attitude is that France prefers trade with the United States to alliance with Spain. After the lesson has been duly impressed upon the Parisian mind that the way to get American trade is not to abuse America, the reciprocity agreement will doubtless be a strong aid in increasing tie trade between the United States and France.

HOW Riddr Cntchcs Rats.

John Hamilton, near Eleventh ana

hen which has developed into quite a
rat killer. The trait first manifested IT.

about the stable found rats nest ana
threw the little rodents into the yard.
The hen spoken about was noticed eating
tile young rats, apparently with great
deal of relish.
. Since then she has been seen on sew
eral occasions under a manger, where
there was q great rathole. She would
stay there for hours AZ a time. Some
OF the men about the place thought the
hen was "brOOdy.' but one OF the driv-
ers Insisted upon IL that she was watch
ing for rats This statement was laughed
at, but yesterday morning It was proved
beyond a doubt
Mr. Hamilton was standing al the back

s0ueaking I'm the stable. lie went TO the
door and just then the Plymouth Rock
hen came from under the manager where
tho rathole is. ana .n ner bill was a rat

The fowl held the rodent in her beak

quick for them. she ran ass fast as she

and would probably have done go If tho
hen had not shaken 81 SO violently. Fin

chickcns away and the Plymouth Rock
was allowed 10 DO as she pleased. she
released her nold on the rat. and when

Notwithstanding Sheng Tajens evident
