It is said that the natives of Foula,
one Of the Shetland Islands, make a
business Of rearing skau gulls in order
to rid the island of the eagles that com
NIT so many depredations. The magni-
ficent red sandstone cliffs that skirt the
northwestern coast became "a favorite
haunt of the eagles, and in this mac
cessible spot they increased SO rapidly
that they became a terror to the farm
ers and fishermen who dwell on this
isolated spot. The skau gulls are also
strong and fierce, and the inveterate
foe of the eagle In battle the guls are
nearly all victorious, and so the inhab-
itants of Foula hit upon the novel plan
of feeding and caring for skau gulls,
which, though formidable to their
feathered enemies, are very peaceful
and docile when brought in contact with
man.

The problem of shipping cavalry
horses to the Philippines has been a
difficult one, as the animals cannot
stand long transportation at sea unless
carried In sings. But by following the
northern route along the Aleutian
islands and down past Japan the horses
could be sent ashore for intervals Of
rest, and this course will be followed
by the transports which will soon sail
with some 5000 animals. The voyage
from San Francisco to the Aleutian
islands would occupy eight or nine
DAYS, and from there to Nagasaki,
Japan, where another stop could be
made, about the same time BY the
route usually followed the horses would
be continuously at sea for from twenty
five to thirty days, and 1t has been
found that under such circumstances
large numbers of them would die.

to impress the judge with his piety.
Being asked what he was doing on the

asked him what part of the Bible he
was reading. The negro hesitated,

The Brooklyn Eagle revives the
recollection that, though Colonel Inger-
soil made such an eloquent speech for
the nomination Of Mr.. Blaine to the
presidency in 1876, in 1880 he kept out
of the Republican convention, and in
1884, when Blaine was nominated for
the presidency, he did not speak for
his election and did not vote for him.
This it explains by stating that some
time In 1873 or 1879 Blaine and Inger-
soil had property quarrel about a
mine in New Mexico in which each
charged the other with unfair dealing.

be the lot of those who shall come to
be his children. Not to be envied in
the neighborhood even in which he
must be reckoned citizen. 1t does
not matter what the mental statue of
that is, how old, how bent, how de-
crepit, the man to whom she is mother.
owes TO her gentleness, kindness, ten
derness and consideration. Did she
fall back and did the children with
superior advantages pass her in the
race? But think of her toll and trial,
her devotion and denial, her mind
and her years that she gave that the
children might derive the benefit.
Think Of her sacrifice, heart in home,
in the buds that were hers. There

in the rear. That's too cowardly even
for the devil.

Bryan on Issues

Des Moins, Aug 17.--Three times
William Jennings Bryan has midi
Gated to the Iowa Democrats that he
no longer insists upon making the sill

party fealty.
In an address to the County Chair.
man he said:
"The Chicago platform was written
for all time, and the Democrat party
Is not under obligations to reiterate
its details, but as new issues arise we
may turn our attention to them, take
them into the family and make n fight
on them without apologizing for any
former fight we have made"
eff new issues arise which seem to
be OF more Importance than chose of
the past, 1t is proper for the party to
give prominence to the new ones and
even use them US the basis of u cam
paign."
With Nh. Bryan's help the radical
silver men have been induced by the
conservative silver men who profess
loyalty to MIR. Bryan to consent to
the mere affirmation of the Chicago
platform without specific reference to
silver or ratio IN the State platform
In his speech Mr.. Bryan said: eve
lost before, because we didn't get the
foreign vote. We had minority of
the native voters, but the foreign
voters did not understand the silver
question. They can understand a
standing army and Imperialism bet
ter than native Americans md they
will he with US next time, and we
will win"
The speaker declared that he was
in favor of the income tax and that
the Republican party opposed it,
Instead Of making the rich pay their
just share of taxes the Republican
party makes the poor poy more than
their share" said he.
II had to pay one cent ON tele-

now, why didn't the Republican
party make the telegraph company

1t has been claimed that the States
should extinguish the trusts. They
won't do it az long as the States are
bidding for the di-honor Of being the

What Makes Success.

1--WE are forever going to begin
work tomorrow" said Mr.. Staybolt,
and we are never satisfied with the
job we've got, and we perform the
labor involved in it in halfhearted
manner, but we are going to work in
dead earnest when we get a job to
suit us.
1.-The fact is that tomorrow, when
we get to it, will be to us as TODAY is
to us now; We shan't feel any more
like work. And that other job, when
we come in actual contact with it and
see it close at hand won't suit us any
better than the one we've got now
does.
1.-The truth is that we are dawdl.rs
and shy of work and trying to get
along just as easy az we can. We
hate to pitch in and 60 at things.
1.-The time for us to work is now
anu NV t"inOTrOw, and the job for US
to collar is the one we've got. Round
that up in style, do the work com.
pfetoIy md thoroughly, and you'll he
astonisbed to find how you'il bring it
out aud wEat chances there are in il
and every body that knows about your
work Or IS III any way concerned or
affected by it, as it is done well or III
will be delighted to see it well done
aud pleased with the doer, and there's
money in it every time.

plot i'll sinking the Merrimac made
him hero with pretty girls and other
people, has had the misfortune, since
that bold undertaking, to fall under
the ban of the critics, who have as.
serted that he ran an entirely
unnecessary risk and accomplished no
possible good thereby. Since his
triumphal progress across the CONT.
hent, Hobson, while not tor gotten,
has been temporarily lost sight
OF. Now he has been heard from and
has news to communicate. Not only
does he suggest possible way Of
making Manila the emporium of the
orient, but he gives information that
shows, however Improbable the work
of vessel sinking may have been, the
work OF vessel raising, in which he
had proven himself an adept before
he crossed the Pacific, is likely to
save Uncle Sam a good many big,
round dollars. He estimates that the
net gain to the government from the
lalsIng and reconstruction of three
Spanish boats that were for n long
time at the bottom of Manila bay
will exceed $500, 600, and he also pro.
poses to try to get at and make useful
three more Spanish vessels that still
remain where Dewey put them. All
OF which goes to show that the young
man has practical ideas and an econ.
