This is the season when even the
alarms of war cannot repress the en-
thusiasm of the disciples of genial
IEaak Walton. BY special courier from
the camp of Grover Cleveland we learn
that the enemy is beginning to accept
proffered bait with avidity and that a
general engagement with terrific
slaughter may be expected within a
few days. The only serious hindrance
to Corporal Cleveland's movement
on the enemy's fortifications Is the
temporary absence of his aid de camp,
Captain Robley Evans. who has OBJ
tained furlough to whip Spain before
he again returns TO active duty.

Austria. aside from its rulers. is not
nearly so Spanish in its smypathies as
has been generally supposed. The
Deutsche Zeitung of Vienna. referring
to this subject recently. says; THE
great North American republic con-
stitutes warning for all European
princes and governments who are
steering for absolutism. Were it not
for the American union the cause OF
civil liberty in Europe in our days
would be in bad way" 1t would
probably surprise most rulers OF the
more despotic countries of Europe TO
know to what extent sentiments such
as the above prevail in their domin-
ions.

]. R. Cravath makes some useful sug-
gestions TO owners of electric-light
plants in towns OF 1000 to 5000 in
habitants. Towns of this size usually
have an electric-light plant. a water
works system. small factory or two
and a dozen or more small steam
plants of from one 10 twenty horse
power. Mr.. Cravath maintains that
there is ordinarily no good reason Why
the electric light company cannot sup
ply power to these varied industries
more cheaply and more satisfactorily
than under the present system OF every
man for himself. In other words. the
power generation for the community
should be consolidated under the roof
OF the electric-light plant, and the men
and boilers and engines there employed
made to earn money twenty-four hours
day instead of two or three.

Snakes are one of the scourges Of
India. Thousands OF people die yearly
from their bite. In the last twenty
two years the number Of deaths attrib-
uted to this cause has reached the
enormous total of 433, 2S9. Snakes
appear to be much more deadly
enemy of man than wild animals. In
the same period wild animals have
only killed 64,2Si persons. On an
average in India 20, 900 people perish
yearly by snakes and wild animals.
The number of deaths in recent years
has shown a marked increase. In 1875
the number was p, 200. In 1896 il had
