Intense curiosity is the great
characteristic of animals when in the
studio. They are as much interested
in you and the surroundings as you are
in them. This is especially the case
with birds. Leave the studio but a few
minutes, and these two-legged fellows
are hopping into every thing. Of

you have been drawing, and the paints

THE QUEEN AND HER WOUNDED
SOLDIERS

In 1895 the Queen showed her SYM
pathy with her wounded soldiers by
paying special visit to the Netley
Hospital to see those who, as a con-
sequence of the Egyptian expedition,
were inmates of the surgical wards
there. In like manner yesterday her
Majesty travelled to Netley to visit
and to comfort the wounded during
the operations on the Indian frontier
who are now under treatment. The
occasion, with it's incidents, was one
of many which would serve to ex-
plain, if explanation were necessary,
why 1t is that the dignified and gentle
lady who stands at the head of the
British race is not only respected, but
also beloved above all her predecessors
on the throne.

THE VAR CLOUD.

Yesterday morning the war cloud
seemed to many to have grown bigger
and blacker But as the day passed
there was a decided change for the
better in the news if not in the actual
situation. 1t now appears that while
Spain does not think that General Lee
is just what she would have him be she
has not demanded and will not demand
his recall. And it also appears that the
government OF this country will make
a proper and harmless concession to
Spain by sending provisions and sup
plies to Cuba in the dispatch boat Fern
instead of in terrible war vessels.
These things are encouraging. They
show that the governments of both
countries are not disposed to add to
the gravity or the irritation of the stu
alton. And they also indicate that the
resources of diplomacy are still far
from being exhausted. Preparations
for war continue in both countries. 1t
would be folly for either country not
to continue them. But war is still APP
parently afar off, and may not come
nearer. It will not unless the manag-
ers in one or both of the countries lose
their heads, or unless they are power
less against public clamor. At present
the people of this country are behaving
| with moderation. and there is nothing
to indicate that the Spanish people are
Internationally on fire.

Gated by the dainty evening costume
sketched here. This skirt was pleated
white surah over a white taffeta lining
that was itself a skirt, except it's band
was fastened to that of the outer skirt.
The blouse waist was of surah, over
laid with white brussels net, showing
appliqued lace figures. 1t had NOUS
quetaire sleeves of white chiffon with
lace epaulettes, collar and belt were
Roman striped silk, and the sash in
back was lace net like the bodice COW
ering, with appliqued lace figures and
fringed end.
Nearly all of the new tea gowns are
made just a little low in the neck.
Usually the cut is square, though the
curved neck that shows the rise OF the
neck at the back as well as in front is
always pretty Do remember that such
a gown should not be worn in the
morning; then the idea Of high muf-
! fling OF the throat should be followed,

The trial of NJ. Zola, the French nov

against the Minister of War and other
officers of the government of France in
connection with the Drcyfus affair, was
called in Paris Monday, and the olls-
not only throughout Europe, but in this
country as well. Nobody doubts the
truth or the charges brought by NJ

Already the government refuses to

DEcLlNE IN new YenK,s TRADE.

According TO the annual report oe the
State Engineer of New York on the
subject of the commerce of the State
it Is shown that the trade of the city
has been steadily declining for years
The report shows that third OF a cen
tury ago that port commanded 73 por
cent. OF the export trade of the entire
country, while at present it commands
only 81 per cent. of the business. The
trade thus lost has gone almost entirely
to Southern ports, principally to Bal
timore, New Orleans, Galveston, Norfolk
and Newport News.
The fact Is, the port of New York as
a great exporting centre is thing of
the past and no one is better aware
OF this than the merchants of that city.
Every effort to stem the tide which Is
flowing Southwark has been unsucccsg-
full and while 1t is not believed that
New York will lose it, export trade
wholly, yet ii Is destined to become so
diminished rs to cease to be of any real
Importance.

WHAT DOES IT ALL MEAN7

The student of current history is
somewhat mystificd over The positions
OF the powers on the various questions
which arc now agitating the chancellor
les OF Europe. France and England are
supporting Russia in it's selection of a
governor for Crete, in opposition to
Germany and Austria while these pow
ems are supporting England in Egypt
against France and Russia, and in
China Germany and France are working
in concert with Russia against Eng
land. It's hard matter to keep up
with these oddities and very many
cannot do so at all. Suppose there
should be collision between any two
of these powers where would the others
so? There are no two of them whose
interests are alike; not one of them who
would not rejoice to see the others go
down to that place visited by the late
Mr.. Gentry, and there remain, and yet
We sometimes hear good deal about
the concert Of Europe. It's funny, isn't
it?
