1t now appears that the boys OF loo
years ago were equally as wayward ana
boylike as the urchns of the present
day. Among the documents composing
the Oxyrhynchus papyri, in possession
Of the Egyptian Exploration Association
is a letter from a youngster named
Theon, who wrote his sire I'm the follow
ing strain: .Theon, to his father, greet
ing: That was a fine thing in you not to
take me with you TO the cityl If you
won't take me with you another time 10

say good-by to you; and if you go TO
Alexandria / won't take your hand or
ever greet you again. That is what will
happen If you won't take me-"
And so the youngster rambles on, there
by showing the urgent necessity for the
application OF a corrective in the form or
a bamboo reed or the Daternal razor
strap. This belligerent episte, though
penned sixteen centuries ago, is fresh
with puerile "cussedness.' and brings
consolation in the knowledge Of the fact
that boys then were pretty much the
same as they are now. While the ave-

THE c,pT,IN OF THE PARIS.

Great sympathy is expressed by the
press and public for bluff, brave, and
rood-hearted old Captain Watkins, whose
misfortune it was to run the Paris upon
the Manacles, from which she has just
been loosed.
His frankness in owning that the blum
der was his, instead of trying to shuttle
IT off upon one or more of his subordi-
mates as many others would have done
has struck a tender chord in the popular
heart.
Hundreds and hundreds Of times he had
crossed the Atlantic and made no mis-
take IN the management Of his ships;
but in this instance, by an unaccountable
miscalculation, he steamed his vessel
headlong upon one of the most dangerous
rocks on the English coast. lie was not
thoughtless. or careless, or Indifferent
but Numbered bewilderingly, and with
disastrous results TO his vessel. Happily
all on board were saved; but the board
Of government inspectors could not over
J look his offence, and they have with
drawn his license for two years.
Doubtless the board did right. 1t could
not overlook the fault, and it was bound
TO sound a warning TO other masters and
pilots. All the same, we are mighty sorry
| for the fine old sea dog, who is thus pun
ished.
Those who will be most tolerant OF
Watklns's fault win be the painstaking,
prudent, intelligent men and women OF
mature years and experience-people who
know the limitations of human capacity,
and who realize in their own daily lives
how easy ii is to err.
The truth is that eve are all poor crit
| ters." and though we manage to conceal
many Of our shortcomings from the pub
lie gaze, there is an eye that sees our
imperfections, and knows there is not one
of uc but who is a sorry blunderer at
| best No, not one.

REPORT ON TOBACCO IMPORTS.
Committee Partially Sustnins the
Charges Against Appraisers.

WASHINGTON, July 1.-THE Secre-
tary of the Treasury has received a re-
port from the commission which inves-
tigated the Appraisers Department at
New York, ON charges by importers oil
tobacco.
The importers charged that through
the action of incompetent examiners
filler tobacco dutiable at 50 cents
pound had been classified as wrappers at
S.S5 per pound; that improper methods
of examination have caused injury 10
bales of tobacco. and that excessive
samples have been retained by apprais-
ing officers and used TO make cigars.
The commission reports that none OF
the special examiners named by the i'm
porters are now I'm the customs service
II is stated ms to ore Of these examiners,
who was temporarily on duty at New
York last year, that a larger number or
his returns, proportionately have been
reversed by the Board of General APP
praisers than I'm the case of any other
examiner employed at New York under
the operation of the present tariff law.
Assessing wrapper rate on small per-
centaecs Us found 20 Dee the direct cause
of many complaints against the appraiser.
II. I'm the opinion of the commission, the
bale was regarded as the unit for assess
meut of duty. one OF the principal sources
of friction would disappear.
