PALACE FOR HIS HOMIE.
Ambassador Draper's Social Life al
 Rome

Americans who have recently re- turned from visit to Europe speak in glowing terms of the manner in which Gen. Draper of Massachusetts is rep resenting the United States at Rome as ambassador to the Italian gover1- ment, says the Washington Post. Gen. Draper has leased the Piombino pal ace, near the Quirinal and the Grand hotel, and not far from the American embassy. It should be underss sood that the ambassador occupies the Pi- ombino palace as his residence, where he receives socially, while the busi- ness of the embassy is transacted at the quarters provided by the United States governmen nt. At the latter the American representative is seen stricl- ly in his official capacity, and a wide difference marks the two.
 Representative and Mrs. Charles F. Joy, of St. Louis, returned a short time ago from visit to Rome, Paris, and other continental cities, and spent a delightful time with MT. Joys for mer associate in. the house at the It. allan capital and his charming wife. They brought back with them not only many pleasant recollections of their reception in Rome, but a collpc- ton of souvenirs and striking photo graphs of Ambassador Draper's resi- dence and the surroundings of the great palace. The Piombino palace stands on historic ground. Some of the stables and outbuildings are 2.OOO years old. The palace itself was built only about twelve years ago at a cost of $1,250.000. The builder was Prince Piombino the surviving member of family noted in ecclesiastic history as having furnished two popes, The

prince, it is understood, lost a for
 tune at cards at Monaco and Mo1te
 Carlo. and mortgaged his palace to . the Italian government for $40 OOo
 to retrieve his losses, and then for
 feited his security, so that the pala-
 tial structure, with it's massive stone
 stairceses, magnificent carvings, and historic grounds passed into the
 hands of the government. It was oc-
 cupied by Minister MacVeagh under
 President Cleveland, but MacVeagh
 rented it furnished. Ambassador Dra-
 per has entirely refurnished the im-
 mense building at an enormous cost.
 His salary is 1000 a year. It illus
 trates strikingly what an American
 ambassador is called upon to do if he
 would worthily represent the United
 States at foreign court. The rent
 which Gen. Draper paws for the Pi-
 ombino palace Is understood to con-
 sume his salary. The magnificent fur
 nishings, receptions, attendance, etc.. are borne from his private means. The palace is richly ornamented with
 works of art. The paintings are Am
 bassador 'Draper's. Many of the ire statues belong to the palace. The cost of the draperies alone are esti- mated at something like $100.OOO.
 MT. and Mrs Joy speak enthus as- tically to their friends of the crur esv and general hospitality extended to all visiting Americans bv MT. and Mrs. Draper The latter is idealIv fitted fir the position by wealth, tradition, and training. Mrs. Draper is well re- memb bered in Washingtin. With great beauty and natural refinement she combines the thoroughly democratic spirit of an American woman. equally gracious in private life and in a sta tion, of great public importance like the present. She is daughter of Judge William Preston of confeder- ate army fame who represented this country as minister to France before the war. She was born in Kentucky. One of the curious incidents connect ed with her life Is the fact that her father and her husband-who is con- s s'derably her senior-met on several fields during the late unpleasantness each leading an opposing host. and bent on doing his best to destroy the other. As the present mistress of the Piombino palace. Mrs. Draper is strong ally to her husband in the character of a gracious hostess and a Automatic he1pmate, whose indiv' du- a1ity is felt beyond the radius of her social sphere. American visitors are always sure of hearty welcome, and 1 while Gen. Draper is beyond question | one of the most ..Iustful and experi- | ,nced men among the American diplo- | mats abroad, his wife Is no less a val- l led representative on the social side rim which these assignments must l ,e regarded.
 She is proud of being an American woman, and her devotion is explified y the many kirdnesses shown to | Americans and the strictly American character of her domestic establish nent. To emphasize her sentiments, he has had made of silk the largest American flag which the regulations How, and on all fitting occasions this handsome banner is displayed to the 'ublic from the front portico of the 'alace.

CANADA AND UNITED STATES

Great Britain declines to Op pe-
 lagic sealing simply and solely because
 is Canada's wish that she should
 And Canada declines and pre-
 Ipon Great Britain to dfclin- simply and solely because the United States Will not gEa nj all Canada's
 demands on the fishH&es, boundaries, l commercial reciprocity and all other important subjects of dispute. between the two countries.-New York Trib- une.
 Canada imagires that, by holding club over the head of the United States, it can force this country to agree to any plan it may see fit to pro- pose. It is not willing to dispose of the sealing question upon it's merits and to leave the other subjects for an- other time. The matter of pelagic sealing has nothing whatever to do with reciprocity and commercial rela- tions between the two countries, and Canada ought to be fair enough and far sighted enough to settle one point at time. Canada complains that cur tariff duties injure her trade with the United States, but figures sent out from Ottawa recently do not seem to prove that contention. A dispatch from the Canadian city says:
 While the growth of imports fr3m the United States has been conside.- able, those from Great Britain have sunk greatly. Canadian importers from Great Britain have decreased over $3. 5OO.O0O this year as compared with last year, while the increase in i'm ports from the United States was $3,- O75,023 over those of year ago Can adds exports to the United States this year amounted to $43, ,991 ,4S5, nearly $1O,0OO.OOO over the previous year.
 It will be seen by these figures that the United States have gained of the Canadian trade almost exactly what Great Britain has lost, showing that the Canadians prefer to come to our markets. Canada's exports to the United States have increased ten mil lions of dollars in one year, while her imports from this country have in- creased a little over three millions Of dollars. Therefore the increase in the value of Canadian goods shipped | to this country is seven millions mlore than the increase of goods sent from the United States to Canada. The do- l minion does not appear to be suffering by reason of the Dingley act or any other act. When she caH increas :. her | exports ten millions of dollars in one | year it is evident that the tariff does 1 not staId in the way of business. Dur increase in exports has been three millions of dollars in the year, and this in spite of the preferential tariff from which Great Britan was ex- pected to reap marked advantages at our expense. These figures, sent ous from Canada, do not prove the Cana Ian contention, and the re usal to act upon the matter of seals, because we will not give Canada still greater privileges, is in very poor taste.

AT THE BREAKFAST TABLE.

A real warlike feeling is consuming the Ancient and Honorable Artillery of Boston. At it's smoke talk" last week J. o. Burdett of ,Higham, Mass, told the famous Boston organization
 that it was not military body, and
 never would be, unless it did things differently. In the first place, MT.
 Burdett said, the practice of elecsing
 a commander every year was destruc-
 tive of discipline, a sine qua non in
 military bodies, and then the ancient
 and honorable gentlemen drank toa
 much MT. Burdett, it is said in Bos- ton, is not likely to be invited to speak at any future smoke talk.
 A steamship line between France and Canada is a probability of the near future. It is said in Quebec that the French government has granted a
 subsidy of 500,OOO francs to such pro- ject, and that MT. Verbekmaes, one of the largest of French shippers, is i ready to place three steamships in service immediately.
 MT. Denby, the United States min ister at Pekin, has sent to Washing ton copy of the decree issued by the | emperor of China curtailIng the cere-
 monies at the New Years reception,
 when the representatives of foreign governments are expected to bow | down before his celestial majesty as a
 superior being. The decree is based | upon prophecy that an eclipse ot the sun will occur on New Years. a Circumstance portentous of evil. Al though MT. Denby makes no comment on the decree, it is evident to those familiar with the Chinese character that it is cleverly contrived to meet
 political exigeccies. Its effect on the vast mass of China's population is ap- parently to shift responsibility for foreign encroachment from the shcu'-
 ders of the ruling dynasty and place
 it on the suns eclipse.
