-------------------------------7-- TRTSTI RELATIONS.

A curious peculiarity of the Irish na- ture is the wide limits to which rela- tionship ia extended. DO you know Pat Meehan?" peasant was asked "Of course I do," was the answer. "Why, he's near relation of mine. He pance proposed for my sisther Kate" When faction fighting was rife In Ire land in vas a mans interest to "in- erase his followin by extending the number of his relations by every possi- ble device. Happily faction fighting is dead in Ireland, and man has no need now to have behind him long line, not of ancestors" as Sir Boyle Roche would say, but of relations" as was imperatively necessary when the "bhoys' were accustomed to mould dishcussion with sticks" at every fair. It is after he is dead that his relations "come in handy" to the Irishman. They give him grand buryin'." Well, Mary" said friend of mine to dom- estic who had been attending a bury in'," "had Mat Maloney good fu- neral?" "Oh, he had grate wan, sir ,' said Mary. An why wouldn't he? Wasn't he related to the whole of the barony? Faith, it reminded me of a and Lague meetin'." ."-Letter in London Spectator.

THE OUYLOOK.

This war has seemed rather unreal and decidedly temporary to many, but it is beginning to take on an appear ance of reality and long duration. The President called for 75,000 more troops yesterday, making 100000 in all. This will be a large army for what many The capture and occupation of the Philippines will be no little task. It will probably not be accomplished for a month or more, and when it is done there may be more trouble there. Cu ba is not yet invaded, and it is now quite plain that the invasion isn't going to be a picnic. General Blanco has talked big fight, and there are many indications that he is going to try to live up or die up to his talk. And even when the Philippines and Cuba are con- quered Spain may still be obstinate.
 On the other hand, the war may come to speedy end. If Admiral Cervera can be caught and his ships sent to join MT. McGinty, even Spanish pride and Spanish honor may be satisfied. Spain couldn't carry on much of war without warships, and she wouldn't have many left if Admiral Cervera should lose those which he has been so mysteriously working. If he isn't caught there will be no use guessing any more for awhile.
 There is still talk of mediation by Europe, with Spains feelings carefully considered. But those who thus talk omit to carefully consider the feelings of the United States. The feelings of the United States will certainly have to be carefully considered now in any attempt at mediation.

EASILY PLEASED.

It doesn't take much to please a Spaniard. When Dewey was destroy ing the Spanish ships at Manila Minis- ter Bermejo learned that the American ships had been "compelled to maneu- ver," and gleefully announced that he ''could scarcely restrain his joyful emo- tions." And now Minister Aunon pub licly declares that he is greatly rejoic- ed' at Cervera's immense triumph in getting his ships into the harbor of Santiago de Cuba where Sampson can't reach them with his guns. In our dis patches this morning there is an ac- count of the utmost joy" at Santiago de Cuba when Admiral Cervera sneak ed into the harbor there. Music, an il- lumination, parade and banquet shed lustre on the gallant admiral and his great feat, and an archbishop with very Spanish name said: Tt is not enough to be victorious on the sea. The Spanish flag must float on the capitol"
 If this is the way the gay Spaniards talk and act now what will they say and do when they get some more sad but glorious" news? They are as cheerful as little Phoebe was when she fell over the, fence, tore her gown and spilled all her huckleberries, and "still did not complain

OUR NAVY'S CHIEF DEFECT.

The chief defect of our navy has been made very plain during the last two weeks. In building up the navy the idea was that this country would never be engaged in any but defensive wars, and for defensive purposes the heavily armored and heavily mounted battle- ships are most effective, of course. The fact is, however, that even de- fensive war, when once entered upon, must be prosecuted extensively in order to come to a speedy and successful ter imitation. For purposes of offense, es- pecially for the purpose of seeking and destroying the enemy's fleet, the slow going battleships alone evidently are not effective. The enemy's fleet of fast cruisers is likely to keep out of reach altogether,and content itself with strik- ing blow wherever opportunity offers. With more cruisers at its disposal the United States could be sure of bringing the war to a. speedy termination be- cause it could pursue a more effective policy of aggression and could more quickly force the enemy to decisive engagement.

THE APRIL AND MAY SHOWERS.


 Possibly showers" Possibly light showers" Probably showers" These familiar ddotations are from the weather bureaus recent and cautious predictions for this region. Showers" Sure showers" Heavy showers" and "More showers would have been more accurate and adequate. It has not rained so around here since the Showers -the-coast" period, and that period wasn't as long and contin- uously sloppy as this showery period has been.
 We don't suppose our good people have been praying for rain. They have been too busy praying for the downfall of Spain. But if anybody who has been so occupied could take an hour off and pray for fair weather he might possibly make reputation. It can't rain al- ways and there will come time when prayer for fair weather will seem to be answered. There was minister who declined to pray for fair weather as long as the weather-vane continued to point eastward. He was a pious and a wise man, but the weather-vane doesn't always point eastward, and it can't always be showery and more ShoWery.

pulled out from the old trunk now. Be- ing furnished with new frills of taf- feta, and perhaps bit of spangling or a touch of beading, it is thought just the right thing. Mantles set on a yoke, giving the effect of folding low on the shoulders, have long tab fronts. There is an old-world and old-time grace in these styles, but remember that if you affect should you should dress to match and comport yourself with languid grace; there is nothing kittenish about
 tabs. Some mantles are really made from shoulder shawls draped on yoke. It is more than likely that by midsum- mer we shall be wearing shoulder shawls, and perhaps in a few more months will be tearing our hair because we sacrificed Mas India shawl to make a fall gown year or sac ago.
 Bodices whose sleeves have cape out lines are still seen, and one that was an ingenious blend of jacket and bodice effects was sketched for this column. It was of black faille covered with coarse silk net that was embroidered
 with jet sprays. It pouched little above the belt, the basque being cov- cred like the rest and edged with a lace ruff1e. A band of jetted black velvet
 gave the collar, and the sleeves were completed with double caps of tucked black chiffon, each edged with a lace ruff1e. A doubled lace frill shirred in the center finished the shoulders.
